Mango's

It has been a few year's since I was last at Mango's but I do remember each meal and dish. It is all very good to excellent, and atmosphere is great and Mango Dave was a great host. I hope with Mango Dave's passing they have been able to keep up the charm and to add to the great food of the Chef, David.

This is not a restaurant, it’s an overpriced diner. Food is simple without any local touch or sophistication. Service is poor. Wines are expensive not because of quality, but the margin the restaurant is making. If you are going to have a party at Mango’s expect to be cheated by management on drinks and wines. We do not advice you to dispute any charges, just pay. Otherwise the owner will send his people to shake money out of you. The only positive about mango’s is its location. It’s right on the beach and the beach is beautiful.

Not a typical Anguillian scene where the people are always friendly and low-key. The owner is toooooo much. I don't go to Anguilla to get dressed up and pretend the only cool peole are from New York.

We have been to Mango's each year since 2000, and it had always been our favorite on the island. In 2006, however, after raving about it, we brought friends and were embarrassed at the poor quality of the food and the horrible service. We had talked about writing Mango's off of our list.
Something made us give it a try again in 2007, and we were not disappointed. Mango Dave seems to be once again running a tight ship. The wine list was the best on the island (much better selctions than Blanchards, in my opinion), with selections that are very difficult to get in the states.
We began with the conch chowder, which was rich and creamy. The brazero grilled fish was fresh and flavorfu, and the coconut cheesecake was divine. All with wonderfully professional service.
I can again recommend Mango's without hesitation.
