I recently visited Mambo’s and had a great experience! My server, Mya, was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure I had everything I needed throughout my meal. Her great attitude really elevated the entire experience.
The food was hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. The environment was great. Clean, and full of color and great music.
Huge thanks again to Mya for such a wonderful visit. I’ll definitely be coming back!

The building itself is clean and nicely made. Doesn’t smell like seafood, doesn’t smell dirty. They have an outside play area for kids and they play nice music so that’s why my review for the atmosphere is 3 stars. The server was decent, a little confused on the menu but she was nice. The drinks were good but they probably only have a drop of alcohol in them. The biggest disappointment was the Mambo Rice they charge you $16.99 for. One, it’s advertised like it’s a big bowl that two could share but the plate they bring out is half of that size, probably worth $10. Two, the title gives this idea that it’s some special rice you can only get a Seafood Mambo, but it’s legit pre cooked Asian rice. It tastes like something I get from a Chinese restaurant in a mall and it literally has the scallions and tiny shrimp in it like a fried rice. Oh and a $40 crab boil with dry crab you can’t pull out of the legs. The food was not worth the price and I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I had high expectations for this place but was left incredibility disappointed. Not only did I feel that the portion sizes to price was a little ridiculous, but the staff was ridiculous as well. They took forever, the female worker Alice or Aliese was short with me and rolled her eyes, and my food was luke warm by the time we got to eat.
