Mangia Ristorante & Caffe'

I was not impressed. I thought the prices were very high. (For pasta) Nice presentation. I ordered chicken parmesan. The 2 pieces of chicken were huge but the sauce was thick and meatless and there was a small lump of cheese, barely melted, on top. It was just ok. The $11.00 bruschetta bread was 3 very small pieces. There were 4 of us at the table! Not even enough to share. I dont think I'll be back for another visit but I'm glad I experienced it once. Our waitress was very good. Veal Marsala was very good.

Very fancy restaurant known for its authentic Italian food. I got the stuffed shells along with a caesar salad + calamari as an appetizer. This is something I’m not used to as much but it wasn’t a bad experience. Wait time for food did take awhile; but I understand that presentation matters to them.

Edit: Be careful when getting sides. I ordered my entree and figured a $26 order would come with a side but my extra Caesar salad was nearly $10. Our waiter did not tell us it would be extra.

This is a great place right at the crossroads in the village of Orchard Park. Very nice interior lots of rooms with well spaced tables and elegantly done. Food was excellent at a moderate price and I had a dish that I have never had any anywhere before that was just spectacular. Very romantic place as well for those that would like that.

Had chicken Parm, chicken only had 1/2 a slice of cheese on each piece. I had the chicken but where was the parm?

Service was far slower than Italian Restaurants we are used to in Buffalo. Bread was not fresh, however entrees were tasty. Overall this restaurant is overrated, but is appropriately priced for the meal.

Torrey was an excellent waiter and so much fun. The sea bass and risotto was perfectly cooked with really nice flavors. I really enjoyed the salmon as well. We love this restaurant!

I haven't been to Mangia in several years but it was just as I'd remembered with excellent quality food, service and atmosphere. The ambiance was just right with music, lighting and temperature. Highly recommend for an evening out to unwind and have a great experience.

Was attending a private party and food and drinks were fantastic. And so was the staff. Very pleasant time there.

The food and service was outstanding!

Sat at the bar for a nice low key dinner @ 6pm. Service was so great and even better, the SEA BASS and risotto special is absolutely amazing. Top it of with a great glass of red wine and top notch bartender, perfect evening.

My husband and I have frequented Mangia for several years both as a couple and for hosting special events. Yesterday we had an unacceptable experience, in that my husband found a long hair intertwined with his first bite of the focaccia in the bread basket. He had to spit it out in his napkin and placed it on his bread plate. We told our server and she took the plate and showed it to the manager. He came out to talk with us without acknowledging the issue — rather, he had my husband explain the issue to him — then he acknowledged that he saw the hair on the plate as our server showed it to him. He said he would talk to the general manager and apologized. He asked if we wanted to continue with our meal — we were reluctant as we were turned off, but decided to keep the evening going, but overall, we didn’t enjoy our meals because of my husband finding the hair. At the end of the meal, our server said the manager wanted to offer us a free dessert to either eat there, or take home. We stated that we were full so no thank you. Our server then stated that the manager said if we didn’t accept he dessert offer, she should tell him and he would do something about the bill. She came back telling us that we got a nice discount — the manager took off the cost of my husband’s entree. We were offended that he would offer the cheaper option first — then offer us the better option if we didn’t accept. All in all, this was handled so poorly and unprofessionally. We frequent Mangia fully expecting to enjoy and pay for a good dining experience. Needless to say, we are disappointed and turned off because of finding the hair, and how it was handled. Right now, we are hesitant to return.

Great food. Awesome workers. Friendly.
