This was our first visit and wow is all I can say. Top notch service from the moment we stepped foot inside and our server Gerardo was awesome. He was extremely nice, well trained and professional. The kitchen staff gets another huge rave because everything that was put on the table was cooked to perfection. Thank you for the wonderful experience, we will definitely be back again and would recommend this place to anyone. I hope you all have a Happy New Year!!
My favorite restaurant, and the second year we've gone to Mambos for Mother's Day. The food was amazing as always, wouldn't expect anything less. The staff were very friendly and attentive despite the fact that the restaurant was extremely busy. I've never been disappointed and would eagerly recommend Mambos to anyone wanting to try out a different place to dine.
My uncle recommended this place and stated it was the best cuban food in town. We had the 6 empanadas for our appetizer. Yes. 6. 2 chicken, 2 beef, and two guava & cheese. (Also ordered 6 more to go 🤸♀️🤫) Honestly, I could've probably canceled my order and been fine with just the empanads and the tasty salsas,....♡ at first taste.🥴🤤 Fried pork chunks were a 🤏 dry. I'm used to them being crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Overall, it was not bad and still very delicious. The waiter was super attentive and very sweet.
We ordered a sampler appetizer that didn't disappoint, it was all delicious. Main dish I ordered the Lechon Asado was super tender and very tasty. They also serve draft beers.
Authentic and tasty Cuban sandwich. Relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Large portions. Could easily split the sandwich at $13.50. Will try again!
Stopped in a week or so ago. Been to this place about 5 or 6 years ago and could never remember the name but after finally finding it and being the area had no choice because I wanted steak. My wife had the coconut shrimp and fries. The shrimp were so good and the dipping sauce was sooo delicious. Fries were crispy and so enjoyable. Myself ordered the Palomilla steak and o-m-g I was not disappointed. The steak was perfectly cooked and the rice was amazing. Everything about this meal was worth it. Love this place would come back in a heartbeat.
First time here we are passing through and decided to stop here. Very nice place. Great atmosphere. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. 👍🏻
Fast and friendly service in a comfortable setting. Amazing food! Great prices!
Stopped in for lunch and was thoroughly impressed! Veggie wrap was delicious. Swapped black beans and yellow rice for french fries and was happy that I did. The rice ideas perfectly cooked and the beans were very flavorful. You would not be disappointed stopping by.
Sorry for the half eaten food photos! The food was really good and had really good flavor. They gave us so much food we couldn’t finish it. I called back to find out if the potato balls had beef or pork. They actually called back to make sure I didn’t want to go lace an order. That was so thoughtful! I truly appreciated that! Great service, excellent food. We’ll definitely be back.
My daughter & I adore this place.
They have delicious food & incredible service.
Gloria always provides a memorable experience with love & uplifting energy.
Thankful for this beautiful restaurant in the community.

Sweet Cuban cafe on Beach Blvd gives you all the feels of Cuban cuisine. Loved the atmosphere and roominess. Service by Gabrielle was good .. not always easy serving an 8 top but other than us not knowing what we ordered and some immediate confusion everything else went smoothly. Food was tasty and his recommendations were spot on. Happy I got out if my comfort zone and ordered Camarones Enchilados, shrimp sautéed in peppers and onions and prepared in a house made creole sauce. We also ordered salads, sandwiches and empanadas.. all very yummy. Black beans and rice with fried yucca and the cilantro house sauce was also impressive. Go. Enjoy! Deliciosa!
