My son & daughter-in-law took us here, my first time & will not be my last, everything about this restaurant was perfect, service, ambiance & the food was excellent. A must try

Pretty nice Restaurant, I like this place. Only thing that disappointed me is my entree Easter menu, the lamb chop milanese, the most expensive one on the menu, but it was over deeply fried, too dry, I can bearly taste it's still a lamb.

Came for Easter dinner this year, and I can honestly say we might do this every year! The menu was great, everyone got something they loved. The staff went above and beyond for everyone at our table, kids included. The appetizer and dinner portions were huge for a prixe fixe menu! The restaurant itself is very beautiful and spacious. And they didn't try and pack it out for a holiday which was nice. We will deff be back!

From being greeted at the door and at the bar by name was amazing. I took the bartenders advice on having a Margareta and it was the best I ever had. The Bake Clams were to dye for, the last time I was there I had the calamari and Brazino fish cooked to perfection but wanted Italian tonight . We had the Squid ink pasta I think with seafood with a glass of Pinot Noir and it knocked my socks off . Every person on the other tables around us could not say enough about how great their food tasted. The owner really cares about what he is serving by constantly going around to every table to make sure they are 100% happy. He actually would not let me leave without having his house made desserts. The best meal I have had in a long time by far. Next time I need to order the Osso Busco. We will be back and please go to this special place

Overall a very nice experience considering there are so many alternatives in that area. Mangia Bene has some nice things going for it and is certainly something different from the same old type places. They have a very nice wine list and even a flight you can try. Solid appetizers, good main courses but the best is definitely the pizza. The wait staff are friendly and knowledgeable and it has really nice ambiance. It can get loud at times if it's crowded but overall not too bad. We've already gone back twice since we first went there and plan on going again. Definitely recommend giving it a try and hoping it stays open.

We had baked clams and fried artichokes for apps. Both were good but small portions. For entree we had the short rib and the truffle pasta everyone talks about. My partner enjoyed the short rib. The truffle pasta was good but nothing to write home about. We then had the zeppole and gelato for dessert. Both were very good. We probably won't be back due to the very tiny tables. It was very uncomfortable. I wish restaurants prioritized comfort.

Went to Mangia Bene in Valentine's Day for an early dinner & loved the ambience & service that we experienced. Nicoletta our waitress was soft spoken, knowledgeable & patient with our ordering. We ordered the chicken parmigiana, casarroce di bosco, meatballs, eggplant rollatinis, roasted chicken wings & for desert torta burro. We enjoyed everything including the bar & wine selections. I had a gulietta & Lambrusco.Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten free homemade pasta

Reservation table was ready and drinks were great. Atmosphere was cool vibe. We used to be a regular there before the pandemic. We had to order off the price fixed, everything that did not have an up charge they were out of.The 2 female managers and their husbands had 4 orders of Backed Clams but non available for the customers? I asked for spinach and they gave me a different vegetable and it was ice cold. Then got what I ordered but it was also ice cold. Sent back a pasta dish that I really did not want because it tasted like a TV Dinner and ordered the Ossobusco that was on the menu she told me they can't do that so they will only charge us for one dish? We only had one dish. I was 5 minutes early for the reservation and I told the hostess my wife will be here in 10 minutes she said that's fine . Your reservation says they will hold the table for 15 minutes. The hostess said that we came after our reservation so they won't make us another dish! Very Rude If the owner who knows us would like to reach out to me my e-mail is [email protected]

This is one of our favorite places to go for all occasions. Wonderful for big group outings and romantic and cozy for date night. The pasta is always cooked perfectly and every dish is incredible. Can't wait to go back!

Went to Mangia Bene for the Valentine's Day experience however because we didn't leave a deposit (Open table notes on the booking that someone would reach out after booking through the app for the deposit, no one did.) When I arrived the staff said it would have to be regular dining. No problem. The food was okay and pretty big portions, but the service from Nicolletta was awesome that really sold the experience.

Amazing restaurant . The worst part of coming here is having to choose what to order because there were 4-5 pasta dishes alone that looked amazing. I got cocktails, appetizer, pasta and desert and each course was better than the next. This is a cant miss, slam dunk italian restaurant. Well done.

01/27/24 after a long day of moving my daughter into her apartment we celebrated my husbands birthday with dinner. Our experience was above and beyond! The homemade pasta is literally the best we have ever had! The service was amazing. The atmosphere was warm and cozy and we loved the live music. The menu and drink prices are in line with any other up scale restaurant, you should get what you pay for and we did. Upon leaving the owner greeted up and was genuinely eager for feedback. We had nothing but praise for the restaurant and our evening
