Mangu Cafe Restaurant

The quality of food and service from Mangu Cafe Restaurant is superb. With each bite of any item on their menu that you order you will feel the love they put into cooking and creating their dishes. This is definitely a go-to spot for me as it feels very homey, friendly, and their food hits the spot. I highly recommend you have a little bit of everything they have to offer.

The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. The food is prepared quick and taste AMAZING! This is a mandatory go to spot for me every time I visit FL. The Cafe con Leche is a must, before or after the food. The mangu with 4 golpes is the best I've had personally. Literally feels like you walk into a small DR when you walk in. With coffee, a drink, and a side of avocados, I spent 15 bucks 😂 DO YOURSELF THE FAVOR AND GO!

Service was great. Server was on top of everything took good care. Order the churrasco steak. But I was given a different cut of meat. I know my cut of meat. Rice and beans maduro was great. But the meat I was given was not churrasco. It was well flavor season meat different cut from what I order. The Dominican cake was really good. You could tell it was homemade.

By all means it doesnt look high end restaurant but when it comes to authentic Dominican food most of the time the little hole in wall places are 5 stars in my Zagat book. The family owned restaurant really makes you feel like you been transported back to DR. I even think i felt a mosquito bite me in the neck, jk... I had the rabo (oxtail) with habichuelas y arroz blanco ( rice & beans) and my daughter had the Tostones with salami and queso frito.. The rabo was tender it just needed a bit more seasoning but I have been to this place before when visiting Miami and i just think due to the closures due to Covid-19 they didnt let the rabo season enought overnight. But I believe they will be in point once things start moving along... Everthing else from the fritura to the pineapple cake was amazing. My daughter who is the pickiest eater could not get enough of the habichuelas con arroz (rice & beans). This def one of my go to Dominican food spots.
