I was hot and tired of your trip to the zoo. And Mambo's was nearby and it was time for a bite to eat and a cold drink. I've been wanting to try this place I had seen it on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives. Today I got a mango iced tea and a tuna salad with grilled vegetables very good. I don't know what the sauce was on the grilled veggies but I enjoyed it you. They are open for Dine-in and they also have outside seating.

I didn't like the rice it was hard, and I ordered a food with habanero, I didn't get any habanero flavor I know exactly when something has habanero because it's my favorite. We also didn't get the desert we ordered. So no I don't think I going back to this place.

This restaurant has very good food and drinks. They taste so fresh and the first time I went here I was blown away! They do custom orders very well, and the staff is very kind. If I could rate is restaurant better, I would.

Not as good as I remember. Definitely not Versailles worthy or Porto's. I enjoy Cuban cuisine and the roasted pork was dry and the Mambos chicken was dry. When you see pieces of meat that look like jerk along the edge you can realize this. The rice was salty. One plate if maduros was hard and sweet(caramelized) the other plate the maduros we're soft and not sweet. Sorry I love Cuban food and I use to go here a very long time ago but things change.

Came for lunch hoping to have a great experience and be wow’d by the food.
I had the Cubano sandwich and the avocado salad.
By all appearances the sandwich seemed yummy, however I found it lacking in flavor and very dry.
The avocado salad as you can see is half an avocado on a bed of tomatoes and onions.
Service was good and place was clean …just sad the food was lacking????

I haven't been here in a number of years and not for dinner. Today we brought a friend and we all loved the food. We started with the Tostones rellenos with shrimp - very good. I had the Mambos chicken and it was very good. Our friend had the steak. It was good but she had to take half home as it was a large steak. My wife had the Toston steak sandwich. Also very tasty. I especially liked the flavor of the black beans. We finished it off by sharing a flan. We shuffled out with full stomachs and a smile on our faces.

???????? CUBA
Excerpt from Eat the World Los Angeles:
The parking lot and patio fill up for quick meals [during lunch]. The owner knows a lot of the customers by name and greetings for locals are in abundance. But walking in for the first time is also like walking into a friend's home, each customer is treated like a long-time regular.

Good Authentic food. Comes hot out of the kitchen. Plantains were a bit salty, and iced coffee was not exactly as we thought it'd be. With that being said, they were good, but not what we were expecting.
The Mojo sauce was definitely different from what we've had elsewhere. We'll go back for sure, service was Excellent, food was Great.

Love the roasted pork plate! The garlic sauce (fresh garlic, white wine...?) is deadly good!! :-)
I've been here a dozen times over the last few years. Everyone is super great. The nicest staff and the best Cuban food!
