Very disappointing experience. My family and I were seated, but after waiting several minutes, no server ever came to our table. We were completely ignored while other groups who arrived after us were attended right away.
We eventually got up and left the restaurant. I truly hope the lack of attention was not related to our color of our skin, because that is honestly how it made us feel.
Unfortunately, I would not recommend this restaurant.

Absolutely the worst dining experience we’ve ever had. The restaurant was not busy at all, and we were seated immediately as a party of three. After being seated, we waited over 15 minutes without a single server acknowledging us no greeting, no water, no drinks, not even a basic “we’ll be right with you.”
What made the situation even more upsetting was watching multiple groups who arrived after us get immediate service. A family of five was seated next to us and had drinks on their table within minutes. Then another group arrived and was helped right away as well. Meanwhile, servers repeatedly walked past us as if we didn’t exist.
We even attempted to get someone’s attention and were blatantly ignored. After being completely neglected while several newer tables were fully attended to, we finally got up and left because it was obvious nobody intended to serve us.
At that point, it became impossible not to question whether race played a role in how we were treated. Every table that received prompt service was white, while we, as a family of color(Hispanics), were left sitting there invisible. Whether intentional or not, that is exactly how this experience felt discrimination
There is no excuse for treating paying customers this way. Even a simple acknowledgment or apology would have made a difference, but instead we were ignored from the moment we sat down until the moment we walked out. Truly unacceptable service and an experience we will not forget.

Been ordering from Mangiamo Ristorante & Pizzeria for almost 2 years now, ever since they opened, and they’ve been consistently amazing every single time. Today I got the Quattro Formaggi and it was absolutely delicious — perfectly cooked, fresh, flavorful, and loaded with amazing cheese. The service is always great, pickup is smooth, and you can really tell they care about quality. Definitely one of my favorite local spots
We went for a second time on Mother's Day during lunch. The food is extremely fresh and delicious. Alex M. did an amazing job taking care of our table and many tables around us, in spite of being short staffed. That guy brings a lot of energy and passion to his work and deserves a raise, if he hasn't had one yet. This is, without a doubt, the best Italian restaurant in the Cobb area.

I don’t know what to say other than we came in on a Thursday night. 7 tables of people… two servers but they were running around with their heads cut off. The server immediately came to our table and told us that the kitchen was busy tonight and that because they are authentic Italian they have their bumps in the road. Not only that told us a whole list of foods they were out of, including but not limited to chicken piccata and GARLIC ROLLS!!! Well we were the table they hit the bump in and so was everyone else there tonight. I don’t understand how the kitchen was so busy with now only 5 tables, 2 with food but “they were”. One hour and 45 minutes went by and still no food. I asked did they start cooking our food and the server said no- told her to get our check. She came back and said they took the kids drinks off- awesome, thanks. We left and now have to order Uber Eats. Never again.
