Mangos Restaurant

We ate lunch here. The food was average. The bartender was unfriendly. But it was a nice place for lunch.

Did not have dinner there after the lunch experience at Mango's. Service was so slow, even though there was only one other couple there. The food was pretty terrible and overpriced. Perhaps dinner is better, but we weren't about to try it.

We chose a night we knew that Chef Marc would be working. We were his finals guests at La Cage Folie last year and happy to hear he remains in Aruba.

The evening we were there, there was a single table of 24 travel agents yet service did not suffer. Our waitress was as sweet as can be and efficient as well, showing no signs of stress. Marc arranged to have some Belgium beer on hand as he knew we were in Belgium a week earlier and Gerry enjoyed several brands there. In fact we know of 3 brands he brought in that evening. Thank you Marc, that was a very nice touch!

For entrees I chose the chicken flamboyant which included 2 large chicken breasts, which is one more than I could eat. It was excellent and everything I heard it to be. Gerry had filet mignon with a mushroom sauce. It wasn't as tender as expected but still very good. The star of the meal, however, was the sauteed scallop appetizer in a delicate wine and cream sauce. These were good-sized sea scallops, not the small bay type. We could have each made a meal out of them alone.

After his chef duties were over, Marc came and sat with us. Lovely evening, lovely setting and prices are reasonable. We wish Marc much success in his new location. We'll be back next year.

We love this restaurant and we love Chef Marc!

Had the scallops as an appetizer followed by a couple of wonderful fish entrees.

The atmosphere is very nice and perfect for a romantic dinner.

Wish we would have had more time to go back again because there is alot on the menu that we want to try - next year!

There were three of us and we all enjoyed our meal. We all had different appertizers, one goat cheese salad which was excellent, a Thai Chicken Sate, it was very good, and a Shrimp Appertizer which was very good as well. We all chose the Chicken Flameboyant for dinner and it was excellent. The price was extremely reasonable. Service was a little slow. All in all, we were extremely pleased and can't wait to return!
