    From the moment we walked in we were welcomed and every wish accomodated. We have eaten at the "new Mambo" about 5 times and brought two friends with us who had never been there. They (like us) LOVED it. The food was all beyond delicious; the tomato salad a MUST; the buratta was amazing; Pasta Limone delicious; the bolognese also delicious - and my husband had a wagyu burger with carmalized onions and arugula.....so good! Like I mentioned before we have eaten there about 5 times, including breakfasts and the food has always been creative, beautifully presented and delicious. ALSO....drinks are creative, delicious and beautiful.
