We went to Mangia's a few weeks ago for the first time. Chicken is very small. Three chicken dishes ordered, all not even decent size for the cost. Other reviews say the same. Alfredo sauce was not very creamy. Pizza was very good. Great service.

We went on a Saturday early evening. Got seated within 15 minutes, so that was nice. Decor is definitely dated, but maybe that's part of its charm? Menu/prices seemed reasonable for an Italian place. Now the reasons for the 3 stars and less. Server completely forgot about our salads. We had to ask for them to be brought out. So now of course they came out with our main entrees. Strike one. My main dish (seafood pasta) was plentiful but VERY dry (had alfredo sauce, but not much to speak of). Wife had ordered a chicken dish ($20 or so). Um, one small piece of chicken breast (we think it was chicken breast -- looked very rubbery, felt microwaved). Seriously, maybe 8-10 bites worth of chicken. Was maybe half of a half of a chicken breast. Strike two. We did read an earlier review about their chicken dishes that claimed it was not even close to being worth it size-wise, but we thought/hoped that that was just a one-off. Unfortunately, it wasn't. Bread was really good tho and they keep it coming if you ask. Now, about that 1-star Atmosphere rating.... other patrons/staff were just fine. But you could smell the bathrooms before even entering the bathrooms. Not even kidding. Was overwhelming! Strike three. Smelled like the men's restrooms at the old Cleveland Browns stadium (Municipal Stadium). Both restrooms were like this.... to the point my wife simply turned around and said she'd hold it. C'mon, man! How can management not realize this and do something about it?? We have heard the take-out pizza is worth it. But after our first and only experience here, probably not gonna give it a try. Sorry, Mangia Mangia. We're sure you have your faithful crowd, but unfortunately you didn't gain new fans.

We came from out of town. The food was delicious and the waitress was very friendly! Great little place to stop for a bite! It was a little pricey, though!
Lois Mudrey
Small family restaurant. Great food, great service at great prices!
Pauline Meeker
Great place for gathering, dinner with the family or a date! Always great food and service is always good!
Very good food highly recommend if your in the mood for Italian. Some of the best chicken wings around too. My favorite is the seafood Alfredo. Beats olive garden hands down

Had my baby shower hosted at Mangia Mangia . I’ve come here for years as a kid , always knew the food was amazing . But let me tell you, was blown away by how helpful and friendly the staff were. They were on top of everything the entire time. You all made us feel so taken care of and welcome . Thank you Mangia team for making the day so special .

They need to replace their chairs. They have no lower back rest on them. Very uncomfortable.
