I will forever be a friend of mambo seafood. Some of the best food you can get in Houston Texas…read more Their fish and shrimp are made to perfection and always fresh and full of flavor. Also, you cannot go wrong with the mambo fried rice. It's literally the best. To make it extra special put some of that hot habanero sauce on it and man you're talking about you got a great meal. Also, the pricing here is great. Where can you get a meal for lunch for around $10? Such a great value in my opinion. Also, recently they started up a loyalty program, which I think is amazing I come here all the time and I will absolutely take advantage of this. The service is usually really fast too. They'll get you in and out of here in like 15 or 20 minutes. All of their locations are consistently really good. Easy five star review.

The ambience was good and we took our plates to go for dinner. She had catfish and shrimp and I had oysters and shrimp. It was also so good. I think the french fries should be double fried though. FYI, just a thought anyway I'll definitely be back. Thank you Naomi. Ask for Naomi she's the best.

This was my first time eating here. I will say I didn't imagine a Medium size to be soo much food…read morefor me, definitely a four person meal or more. They serve you up to the brim! The fried rice was a 10/10 (they put shrimp in it). Egg rolls were a 8.5/10. The chicken was a 7.5/10. Id say the sea food here is a better option. I wish I had a photo to show the fried shrimp I also got along with this meal but it was too good I forgot about taking a photo. Really great place though!

This is one of the newer Saltgrass Steak Houses, now located in Gulf Gate…read more Although the downtown convention center location is waaaay closer for us, dealing with paid parking or convention crowds isn't worth it...unless we MetroRail, but that's a whole other adventure I'm not always willing to take. We've been to this location SO many times now. The staff of young servers are all great. I think we almost always get Devon or Christian (hey, guys!). And they have to put up with my partner's lame dad jokes. :) I always get the salmon and veggies. Beau likes their prime rib on Saturday and Sunday (it runs out though!). Don't fill up on their bread. Or their salads... save room for cheesecake, y'all. This location has a very large private dining room, a bar area, main dining, and outside patio. And plenty o' parking.

We went here with my parents for dinner and a couple of drinks, hoping to have a relaxing and…read moreenjoyable evening. Unfortunately, the service was extremely disappointing. We sat at a table in the bar area, which wasn't particularly busy. There were still several open tables and plenty of room at the bar. We ordered a couple of draft beers and a frozen margarita, and somehow it took about 15 minutes just to get our drinks. To make matters worse, the drinks were wrong. The margarita was served on the rocks even though we specifically ordered it frozen, and when we questioned it, there was an argument about what we had ordered. The tall draft beer we ordered came out as a short. The waitress who took our order wasn't the person who delivered it, so apparently no one was checking the order before bringing it to the table. I also ordered soup and a salad and never received my soup at all. Throughout the evening, we had to repeatedly try to flag down a server whenever we needed anything. Once we finally got someone's attention, it would take another 10-15 minutes to get a drink or whatever we were requesting. It was incredibly frustrating and completely took away from what should have been a relaxing night out. We've been to other locations and have never experienced this level of poor service. I also remember that when we first started coming here, a manager would regularly come by to check on the tables and make sure everything was going well. That no longer seems to happen, and unfortunately, based on this experience, I can understand why. This location really needs to focus on properly training its servers to know what they are serving and making sure orders are being checked before they reach the table. The bar service also needs some serious attention. Taking 15 minutes to pour a draft beer or serve a frozen margarita that is already prepared is simply unacceptable, especially when the bar area isn't even busy. It's frustrating because this location is only a 3-minute drive from us, but after this experience, I'd rather drive 20 minutes to another location just to receive decent service. Hopefully management takes this feedback seriously because the food and drinks are enjoyable when the service is actually there. We just shouldn't have to spend the entire evening trying to get someone's attention.

Okay let me tell you. The food... is damn good. My friends and I arrived right as the restaurant…read moreopened at 2 PM. The parking is a little tricky or strange. The lines are diagonal, but you actually have to park your car straight Um, the exterior does not have a sign so you may get a little confused, because it's on the corner of Scott and McGregor but there's no sign indicating what the restaurant's called, but anywho. The interior of the place is surprising it's really cute, cozy esthetic, and has a large patio, that I didn't try because it's too hot. You order your food at the bar, my friend, and I both got a moscato. And no, thanks, it is box wine, and it was flat, and it wasn't good. My other friend ordered An old-fashioned and she said, it tasted pretty good. I ordered the catfish and grits, 10 out of 10. The catfish was fried perfectly. The grits were nice and creamy I. Also got a side of red beans and rice and they were fire. Really, really good. My friend additionally got the grits with shrimp. She said it was good. Now. Would I return back to this place? Probably not. Would I order pickup? Absolutely because the the one big issue, as someone else stated, the food is good, if you can get it, it took an hour for our food to come out. We had finished our drinks and were parched. They don't offer you water because again, you have to order at the counter and the food took an hour to come out and to the point some people that ordered after us got their food before us. I think there is literally only one person working in the kitchen. My recommendation is, if you want to check this place out, come partially full and with patience or call in your order for pickup. So yes, the food is good but I will not be dining in again

So I decided to give this place to try with my girlfriend and I absolutely enjoyed it. The food is really good. I went with my normal, two piece, fish and six shrimp and I have to say it was absolutely amazing. One thing they didn't have is the habanero hot sauce which I love from mambos. Also, I think mambos has way better fried rice, but I will give Mannys this they have eggrolls which were absolutely amazing and I've never seen any of their competitors so props to them for that. They are very tasty too! The prices are great too! Whenever I am in the SE I'll definitely give them a try. However I do wish they would start stocking the habanero hot sauce.

I went to get my…read moredrivers license replaced, and surprisingly, it was quick and painless, so with some extra time to spare, I figured I'd get crawfish before I went back to work. Pulled up my handy dandy Yelp open and what did you know 4.5 stars and enroute to my house (I work from home). The Plaza was a bit sketchy, not a lot of cars in the entire Plaza. But Yelp said it was good so I went forward trusting the process OMG!!!! First...$7.99/lb WINNING! I ordered egg rolls... DELICIOUS AND FRIED TO PERFECTION. But let's get to the real highlight of this trip. I ordered 2lbs, house special seasoning, spicy with corn, sausage, and potatoes. I could have done without the sausage. It's ok. The corn and potato were cooked perfectly. But the crawfish....OOOOOOHHHH the crawfish. Flavored to the gawds....and HUGE! Like all.of.them. not just one or 2...maybe 1 or 2 were small lol WINNING!!!! Then as if it could be any better....a nice gentleman paid for my meal and just asked that I tip the waiter. Gladly! JACKPOT!!!! GOD IS SO GOOD! Can't wait to pay that blessing forward!! Baby when I tell you I couldn't get home fast enough to post this review. Please visit if you can...you won't be disappointed. I will be back!

Get the best of both worlds here with some viet food and crawfish !…read more We ordered: I had the chicken plate and it was gooooood! 5/5 I love that it was served a small bowl of soup was served with it to complement the dish. I asked for white rice instead of fried rice. The chicken was moist and had great flavor and perfect crisp on the outside. Thit Bo Luc Lac (shaken beef) with fried rice. 5/5 I didn't try the fried rice myself but the beef was on point . It came with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime for dipping too (chefs kiss!). A few pounds of crawfish 3/5 I'm not a huge fan of crawfish off season but it wasn't bad . (Pro tip: We asked for extra sauce and limes to dip into) Service was pretty slow while the place was empty tho. There's plenty of seatings and parking was easy .

Customer service is the most important part of the service industry. My man called this place and placed an order for a burger. The lady said it would be ready in 15 to 20 minutes. 20 minutes later, he went to go get the order, and the lady said it wasn't ready yet. Give them 15 more minutes. So while he waited, 2 ladies went in and got their food almost immediately. Then another person went in and got his food almost immediately as well. So my man went back in and asked the lady how much longer on the burger. She told him she hadn't gotten started on his order. Mind you, he ordered the burger basket on the phone 40 to 45 minutes prior. He was getting upset and she asked "Do you want the food or not?" with an attitude. He told her not anymore, and he ended up leaving and going to McDonald's instead. I'm very disappointed with the customer service. The food is good but that attitude of that lady need to change immediately. Will not return.
