    Loved this place. Delicious food, good sized portions and you can’t beat the Lunch specials, also available on Saturdays. Ordered the Beef Empanadas, Fish Ceviche, Seafood soup, Grouper, Churasco, Flan and Tres Leches. Everything was great but the ceviche was definitely my favorite.

    From the time that I arrived the hostess was so friendly and nice. As soon as I took a seat the waiter came to me and ask me what I would like to drink. He was really fast The food was really good.I really enjoyed my empanadas, the steak with chimichurri and the coffee that I order to go. Even the garlic bread they gave you before you order was really good as it has some butter and was crispy, crispy and hot 🙌🏼🙏🏻 I will be back 😊

    Very delicious food! Grilled shrimp were nicely cooked, not over done and excellently fresh tasting. Plantains and beans that came with were also delicious. Margaritas were awesome, tasted of delicious fresh fruit juice. Server was very kind and attentive. Beautiful shaded patio. Will certainly be back.

    We came to Mambos late Saturday night and everything was fantastic. We had a table of 11 and they were able to seat us within 20 minutes despite the restaurant being packed at 9:30 pm. Food was well seasoned and delicious. Our server Jose was a hoot, making jokes with us and provided excellent service. Their food was a crowd pleaser from their seafood to their meat options. Great options for pescatarians and vegetarians as well.

    I ate here last week with my husband, who is Cuban. The portions of food were phenomenal! I ordered Piccadilly hoping it would taste like my mother in laws and my husband ordered the salmon. The food was good but did not compare to the homemade meals my mother in law makes. I will go again and try something else because it has a nice atmosphere and good prices, but wish they would up the seasoning on the food

    Great service, nice place to socialize and enjoy a good meal. We tried entrees from the Peruvian menu and we were all happy with the flavor. The favorite dish was Churrasco. All the portions are BIG. I personally think each serving is enough for 2 people. The price for each dish are a little high but when you see the portions it’s well worth it. Our waiter was excellent. He had the perfect personality for this kind of job and he was also very knowledgeable about the menu. He suggested certain dishes and those are the ones we ordered. Wish I remembered his name. Will definitely consider coming back to celebrate a special occasion.

    Authentic food! Me and my wife both enjoyed the meal. I ordered the seafood rice and my wife the tallarin saltado with shrimp. I’m definitely ordering from mambos cafe again !

    19Dec2021 - Wow, this was amazing all around. The decor is lively and tasteful, our waitress was super friendly, she took the time to answer our questions and didn't seem bothered at all, smiling and laughing, just overall making us feel welcome. The food was delicious, prepared perfectly and well presented.

    This place has the absolute best black bean soup when you don’t want that much to eat for dinner. Add the grilled shrimp appetizer and you have the perfect meal for two at a great price! Love this place. Come see Jose! He is the best.

    Pretty typical cuisine. Ordered the Cuban lunch special and it was good but dry and it didn’t come with any sauce. Fries were boring Also got the ham croquettes and they were pretty the same as everywhere. Services was a little slow. The experience wasn’t bad but it wasn’t amazing either.

    Love Mambo's lunch specials available until 3pm..! Started off with nice, warm & crispy mariquitas, fresh juice. Plates were very well presented with a real orchid. Taste was out of this world..would go back over and over..

    Delicious food! We got the Vaca Frita and the Churrasco bothe were amazing. We also got the mariquitas with mogo. Highly recommend this place. The atmosphere was also great, and our server was very helpful. It's cuban and peruvian food, and you can't go wrong here. Ill definitely be back

    We came here on a weekday and I was happy with their warm welcome. Here is the summary of my experience Ambiance - 4/5: The ambiance is a stark difference between the bar and the seating area. While the bar looks chic and upscale, the restaurant area has been given a rustic vibe. I am not a fan of rustic places with open AC ducts but others might like it. Service 4/5: The service was really good with the staff helping me understand all the dishes and being ready to modify them with a smile. They brought bread for us without us asking for it. But in general, the service was slow, we had to wait for some time even for the water to arrive - This happened when the restaurant was not so crowded Food 4/5: The food was a mix of hits and misses: 1. Pollo Saltado: The pollo saltado was served with rice and had a tangy flavor which I really liked because it was close to an Indian flavor. The chicken was moist and the portion was large so I took it home and had another bite the next day 2. Chicken Empanadas: I had their famous empanadas but I didn't personally love them. Value for Money 4/5: The place is not cheap with a majority of the dishes above $15-20 but the quantity is huge so you can take it home and have another bite most of the time. In summary, I would definitely come to try a few more dishes and give it a try once more PS: The green chutney with the bread is really spicy ;)

    A friend recommended me this place. They have lunch specials from Monday - Saturday at 11AM-3PM. We ordered the Chilindron De Cordero and the Churrasco. The food we ordered was very flavorful and tasty.

    Delicious. Me and my wife wanted a little laid back anniversary dinner and let me tell you this was the place. Nicole our attendee was great, very kind and friendly. She got our food out super quick we barely had to wait. We sat outside in the shade and it was a good choice. Very quiet and super chill. Service was good, food was good and that coco loco drink was amazing ! Shout outs to Nicole !!

    We went there as a team for lunch. If you're in a hurry for a quick lunch out of the office, this is a great place to go. We got seated immediately, and we're able to get our food within just a few minutes of ordering. The majority of the team had sandwiches with fries, which came out very quickly. I got the grouper sandwich. The Cuban steak took a little longer to come back, but it was only a couple of minutes after the sandwiches. On all very quick service and very friendly. The grouper was very well cooked and seasoned, not overly salty like some fish sandwiches tend to be. He did say it was going to come with tartar sauce but did not come with it, although I didn't need it to enjoy my meal. While we waited for the meals to be prepared, they brought us bread with some very spicy sauce to dip it in. This was very tasty but the more you eat, the spice ads on your pellet.

    I’m in town for a class and a friend from home recommended this place. It is amazing. The food was great and the staff very friendly and helpful. When I come back to Georgia, I will definitely visit them again.

    Searched for Cuban food and it was very good. Had the Cuban Sampler and house made Flan...Pablo took great care of us! They also have Peruvian food.

    On a Saturday afternoon, I visited the place and was pleasantly surprised to find it wasn't crowded. The service was prompt and the food was outstanding! I tried the Churrasco and I must say, it was superb. The flavors were bright and so fresh, and everything tasted simply delicious. I even ordered a fresh guava juice which was served in a large cup and was worth every penny. I'll definitely be back for more!"

    Absolutely delicious. Mambo's is a gem in the heart of Alpharetta and worth driving OTP (outside the perimeter) to eat. The menu is quite extensive with Cuban and Peruvian cuisines. There is a lunch menu (Monday thru Saturday) and dinner menu. The portions are plenty, and there are many shareable plates. Everything was so flavorful. The sauces (whether on the side or cooked with the food) had so much depth and a nice flavor profile. The service was top notch. Highly recommend asking the staff if you have any questions or need recommendations. They're very welcoming! There is plenty of parking. It's a bit cold right now but we did see an outside patio dining area.

    We did not sit in the restaurant but placed an order to go. All the dishes pictures were delicious! The calamari was not chewy and the steak was awesome great as well. Everything was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back to eat in.

    Loved this place. Pollo Con Camarones Enchilado was packed full of flavor and super tasty. Maduros were a fantastic dessert. If you are looking to do Cuban in the area this place knocks it out of the park.
