    Always a fabulous dinner, we are early diners at their original space. The service is excellent. All the staff is super friendly. It’s one of our favorite restaurants 1978 , very talented chef. The whole family is awesome. I especially recommend the Puttanesca. My husband’s favorite are the fettuccine and the lobster and mushroom raviolis They have one of the best tiramisu also. The prices are also very reasonable for what I consider upscale dishes. You can also get pizza which I hear is great

    We celebrated our anniversary with an outstanding family meal at Mangia. We have been here several times and have never been disappointed. We weren't this time! The food was excellent as always and we were so glad they had their homemade sangia tonight. They make a limited supply each day and it often runs out. The food helpings are very plentiful. I will say the service was a little slow this time but it wasn't to thebpoint of complaining. They also offer a veterans discount. Overall we loved it...as usual.

    Strange atmosphere, the resturant feels like it tries too hard to be italian. The food was quite good, I recommend the Meat Lovers Pizza. The staff were friendly but you could tell they were bored and interacted with us a lot.

    This was our first time dining at Mangia and it was a wonderful experience. Sunday evening is not very busy in this area of Avalon Park and within this restaurant. The environment was calm and peaceful. It was a little over halfway full, but I was told by the server that Friday nights and Saturday nights are very busy there so reservations are definitely recommended. our server, Sophia, was attentive and very kind. The menu was fairly expensive so I think it would not be difficult to find multiple dishes to have to choose from. There’s a great wine list and a full bar with a very attentive bartender, Justin. my husband got the chicken marsala, which was superb. The wine beef sauce was exceedingly flavorful and the portion was huge. This was over a linguine noodle. I opted for the fettuccine Alfredo with no protein added. There are options for chicken I believe and shrimp if you need a protein source. These dishes were nicely presented and exceedingly flavorful. The staff, as well as the chef are exceedingly attentive and are out amongst the customers. There is a very family feeling here and we would definitely come here regularly.
