Reviews for Mangiamo Ristorante in Manhattan Beach, CA

We had a delicious dinner and excellent service last night. Sat outside and enjoyed the ocean air. Calamari was perfect with 3... sauces to dip in. Fettuccine Alfredo and Carbonara for dinner. Both dishes were phenomenal. Christian was attentive, kind andalways there when we needed her but didn't hover. Butter cake for dessert topped off a perfect meal. I will happily return. Read more

Great views, great service, Sat outside enjoyed some nice wine and some gnocchi as an appetizer and it melted in your mouth. The... short rib was fantastic. Read more

Absolutely incredible food and great service. We were a big party and they took good care of us the whole time. I highly... recommend the scallops with the lobster ravioli, but everything I tried was amazing. I will be back again soon! Read more

I really liked the salmon and risotto, the tender fish just melted in my mouth, but for me there was quite a lot of black pepper... or some other spices that gave extra spice, but these are just my preferences. The ocean views from the tables are relaxing, thesunsets are superb and the champagne of course too! The evening was great, thank you! Read more

This restaurant is mediocre, however for a newly opened place they did fine. The issues we faced were: the waiter seemed to rush... us during the visit, he also was quite inattentive, especially when more people started showing up, we waited 15 minutes toorder dessert, caprese was horrible (too plain, too much olive oil, not salty enough), table was too small even for just twopeople, and also the waiter did not bring us any bread, even though everyone around had some. Overall, other dishes we tried(chowder, gnocchi, and scallops) were pretty good. It was also very easy to make reservations, and the place itself is nice.This restaurant is worth a visit, even if just a single one. Read more

Food was absolutely incredible!!! Service was great as well. I have no complaints whatsoever. I look forward to coming again... during my next visit to Los Angeles! Read more

A very enjoyable meal at this fine Italian restaurant, walking distance to the manhattan beach pier. While the food was... outstanding, I'm somewhat torn. In my opinion, the service was not to the standards of a restaurant at this price level. Theservice felt rushed and not polished. It was difficult to flag down our waiter - or anyone. It took a long time to even get mywater refilled. Overall though, a pleasant experience. Read more

I brought my wife here for her birthday. We ate in the outdoor dining outfitted for COVID. I had a spicy chicken dish with penne... and was quite happy with it. My wife ordered a shrimp pasta topped with a crab cake and was happy with her choice. The breadpudding they gave my wife for her birthday was AMAZING. We continue to talk about it to this day.
