Four diners and four excellent dinners. Veal piccata. Chicken Marsala, pumpkin ravioli and Chiopinno. All delicious! And most enough for leftovers.

Although chicken piccata wasn't on the menu they accommodated the person who wanted it and it was delicious

Mangia Bene is our "Go To" place to eat out. The food is always delicious, service is great, and the atmosphere is wonderful. My husband and I have never been disappointed with our dining experiences with Mangia Bene. The only problem is deciding what to order because it is all SOOO great!

Great dining spot. We had reservations this evening for a nice Italian dinner. Jasmine and Romero took care of us with quality customer service. We started with Martinis, bread and the eggplant appetizer which were terrific. I also had a salad which was very good. My wife had the chicken, spinach ravioli, angnolotti rosati and I had the penned campagnola. The food, service and ambiance was fantastic. We finished with coffee and tiramasu. Highly recommended

The server was rude and did not want to serve us. The food came frozen!! We sent it back and they did not bring us anything else so we left. Just awful. Never again

We have been dining at Mangia Bene for over a decade and it has been a great experience for us. Food has always been consistently good and full bar service also is one of the highlights. We are very pleased with the hospitality. I give thumbs up!

This is hands down one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve visited. The service was excellent, with the staff being both friendly and efficient. For dinner, I had the risotto with mushrooms, and it was divine—creamy, flavorful, and loaded with fresh ingredients. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant, with intimate seating arrangements and an inviting atmosphere that feels just like Italy. From the service to the food and the ambiance, everything was spot on. Highly recommend!

Mangia Bene has been a “go to” restaurant for us since they opened. The food is always delicious (make sure you like garlic!), and the service is exceptional. The space is relaxed and comfortable.

Always exceptional food & service no matter who the servers are!!!!! Drinks from the bar are cold & full pour, never cheap & scrimpy, like so many restaurants are doing to save a buck, not realizing this is a lasting impression!!!! Drinks & food are always perfect every single time!!!! We Love Mangia Bene!!!!

We have been going to Mangia Bene since it opened in 1991. Always consistently excellent food. Servers at times can be a little spotty but the food is always excellent

First time at this restaurant and we were very pleasantly surprised. We had the fried artichoke appetizer, it was good, wish the artichokes were crispier. We also had the seafood pasta and rigatoni with sausage, both were delicious, we ended our meal with a very good and crunchy cannoli. We'll definitely go back.
