Absolutely delicious. I had the portobello fettuccine, so good I woke up the next morning craving it again. Service perfect blend of efficient and personable, our server never hovered but was always attentive despite a relatively crowded night for a Tuesday. Will definitely go back again and again.

Love, love, love. Excellent food. Service is always great. Parking is sometimes difficult but worth it. I always order the salmon sandwich on house made bread. Delicious everytime.
They don't have Veal Parmesan. What self-respecting Italian restaurant doesn't have Veal Parmesan? Garbage.

The service was good. The Cesar salad was excellent. The chicken picatta was tender but the sauce somewhat bland. The Shrimp linguine had an unappealing color and didn't seem very fresh. The servings were huge.

BBQ Chicken pizza and Alfredo are incredible. Fresh baked bread is good, just wish it came warm.

Big wow. Everyone I talked to said Mambo was good so my expectations were high. Man it did not disappoint. Had dinner with the coworkers for our biweekly dinner club. Everyone meals looked phenomenal. Drinks were adequate. We also had dessert, which was also fantastic. Will definitely be coming
Worth giving it a try! The food was great! I always love it when my food is hot. The portions were large enough that I had leftovers. I will be going there again!Vegetarian options: Dishes that you can opt out of the meat or seafood.

I recently dined at Mambo Italiano in Fairhaven, and it was delicious!!The star of our culinary adventure was the Smoked Salmon Penne Pasta, a dish that surpassed all expectations. The al dente penne combined with the rich, smoky flavor of the salmon created a harmonious symphony of tastes that danced on the palate. The creamy Alfredo sauce added a velvety texture, elevating the dish to a level of indulgence that I haven't experienced before. It was a perfect fusion of freshness and comfort, leaving a lasting impression.Equally captivating was the Carne Marsala, a true masterpiece. The tender cuts of meat bathed in a Marsala wine reduction showcased the chef's mastery of flavors. Each bite was a journey through layers of succulence, and the accompanying sides complemented the dish impeccably. The combination of earthy mushrooms and sweet Marsala created a symphony of flavors that lingered on the taste buds, leaving a craving for more.To accompany our meal, we opted for the house Chianti wine, a decision that added another layer of enjoyment to the evening. The robust yet smooth notes of the Chianti perfectly complemented both the smoked salmon pasta and the carne Marsala, enhancing the overall dining experience.The service at Mambo Italiano was exceptional, with attentive staff ensuring our every need was met. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu, offering insightful recommendations and making our dining experience all the more enjoyable. The timing of each course was impeccable, reflecting a well-coordinated and efficient kitchen.In conclusion, Mambo Italiano in Fairhaven stands out as a gem in the culinary scene. The Smoked Salmon Penne Pasta, Carne Marsala, and the house Chianti wine combined to create a memorable dining experience. The attention to detail in both the cuisine and service solidifies Mambo Italiano as a must-visit for anyone seeking a true Italian culinary journey in Washington. I wholeheartedly give it a five-star rating and look forward to my next visit.**Unfortunately I forgot to take photos of our untouched delectable dishes, but here is one of the partially enjoyed Carne Marsala.

We've come here several times since moving to Bellingham, and every time the food has been really great. It's one of those places we'd definitely take our friends to eat if they visit Bellingham.The pasta is always cooked so perfectly, the sauces are delicious, and the bread they serve for appetizers is really nice! I'd say it's a bit pricey, especially with the added cost for meat selections (adding chicken, meatballs, etc to your pasta), but with the large portions, I'd say it's worth the price. I very often am able to get two (or at least one and a half) meals out of one of their dishes when I take it home.The service is very friendly and accommodating! So far I haven't had a bad experience with anyone who works there.The atmosphere is very warm but lively, with paintings for sale on the wall by local artists. I've only ever gone at dinner time, but I'm sure it's a nice atmosphere during the day, as well.I highly recommend the chicken parmesan, the spaghetti bolognese with added meatballs, the spaghetti carbonara with added chicken, and the bruschetta. Their Italian sodas & mocktails are really tasty, too!

Ordered the cheese tortellini and my wife ordered the Spaghetti with marinara. Both orders were spectacular! The bread is delicious as well. Service was on par and the atmosphere was very laid back casual. I would recommend this restaurant any day!
