Have walked past this café style eatery many times and decided to go in and check it out to my surprise I encountered they have many self service items to pick up if on the go as well as a hot and cold salad bar. The items I tried were a pecan pie, which was delicious especially their crust was so thin and buttery, and I wish they would have that on their menu all year. I also tried the tomato soup which had eggplant and Parmesan cheese, a beautiful combination. The space is accommodating from small groups as well as large groups with a good amount of tables, my only complaint is that there is one restroom. Overall, I would visit this location when in the mood for a quick bite on the go. read more

Mangia NYC, where the air smells of espresso and fresh pastries, one item rises above the rest -- the Pistachio Croissant. It's not just a pastry; it's an experience. From the first glance, it's a work of art: golden, glossy layers with just the right flake, dusted with crushed pistachios that hint at what's inside. The texture is exactly what a croissant should be -- crisp on the outside, tender and buttery within. But it's the filling that truly steals the show. The pistachio cream is velvety and fragrant, with that subtle nuttiness and sweetness that never overwhelms. Each bite melts into the next, balancing rich pastry and delicate pistachio flavor in perfect harmony. What sets Mangia's version apart is its freshness. You can taste the quality of ingredients -- real pistachios, creamy butter, and dough baked to perfection. Paired with one of Mangia's strong cappuccinos or a smooth latte, it's easily one of the best morning indulgences in Midtown. Mangia's pistachio croissant is everything you want in a pastry -- elegant, flavorful, and utterly satisfying. Whether you're grabbing it on your way to work or lingering over coffee, it's the kind of treat that makes an ordinary morning feel special. read more

I like Mangia, the food and selection have been good, and the service reasonably fast. Though it can be crowded at times, bordering on crazy, it's a great place to get good, "faster" food. Some of this is made earlier in the day and then warmed up, as was my panini on this visit: RUSTICO PANINO: ham, cheddar, tomatoes, mushroom aioli, on house-made focaccia. I had this grilled, and it was substantial and tasty. This is just one of the many choices available here, they have numerous counters (stations) where you can custom order breakfast, lunch or an early dinner. They have limited seating, though I've always managed to score one of their small tables. They offer an extensive takeout and are close to the park, so I'm going to try that on my next visit. As faster food options go, this is a great place. I look forward to returning. read more

Food really good. Service nope. Again another place that thinks vegan and gluten free are the same. Nope. Floors were dirty, cashier not friendly at all. We sat down and a fire alarm went off and no staff seemed worried. We left and ate our food in our hotel room. I had gotten a salad bar salad and hubby got a gluten free roasted chicken wrap that he loved. We both got gluten free cookies for dessert and they were excellent. Food was great everything else not so great. read more

Fabulous Hazelnut croissant! Walked up to the counter and they made my Latte to order without a long wait. When you walk in there's only 5 high top seats, but there are tables outside. read more

I've been thinking of Mangia often since moving out of Manhattan because they were truly my IDEAL lunch/dinner spot, and I ate there many more times since my initial review. It's perfect for office lunches, catering orders, and they have an array of healthier and dietary-restriction friendly options. Gotta go for breakfast AND lunch/dinner to experience both amazing menus. I see some of the reviews are ridiculous imo and Mangia deserves way higher than their current rating. Daily specials menu of soups, apps, sides, entrees, pastas, etc along with seasonal desserts/dishes/business collaborations. Currently (Spring 2025) they have a fun collab with Floratorium -- the cakes with floral arrangements I saw online are gorgeous! Yes, I literally visit the "Order Now" section of their site because I appreciate a restaurant that posts photos of items and they have a photo for EVERYTHING. Photographer on point every time! I've tried a wide assortment from both menus but my favorites are the grilled salmon entree w/ 2 sides and ALL of the vegetarian & pescatarian soups so far. Omg... Clearly homemade, each with an amazing depth of flavor. Soups I've had: spicy corn, butternut squash, vegan cauliflower, broccoli cheddar, potato leek (I believe), moroccan lentil, roasted tomato w/ eggplant, shrimp bisque. A piece of baguette on the side is a must for this European -- theirs is perfectly crispy yet chewy. I didn't realize how often they added new items/switched up items until I looked earlier! Huge fan of their retail items too (balsamic and oil, bento box, tote, mugs, and more available). + unique smoothies and pressed juices all day. Their website is also awesome because they have a Recipe Book available so you can recreate the food sold in store. Super cool b/c who else does that?! Come and support this LOCAL NYC business (with a few diff locations) that's been around for quite some time now, and keeps refreshing/revamping to remain a gem amongst the hectic and often lousy midtown dining scene. Other Recommendations: any desserts especially the flourless chocolate or Signature cookies, Blue Power smoothie, Caesar salad, roasted teriyaki salmon salad, penna alla vodka (super basic but great), vegetarian pizza. I only wish they offered a couple of other sides! read more

This is where people who actually have a real job come for lunch. My first full day back in New York. While in the area around noon, I saw a lot of these red/gold/white bags and I was curious where they were from. Lucky for me, I was on 57th/5th, so it was a very short walk over to my destination. Upon walking in, it was busy as it was during lunchtime, and there were many areas to look at but I was simply trying to stay out of the way. I checked it out online and noticed there were other locations, one where I was planning on being the following day. I enjoyed my lunch so much at the Soho location that I returned here the next day since I was down the way again over at MoMA. I zeroed in on the hot takeaway bowls (penne vodka w/ chicken). Mad respect for those quick and efficient cashiers; I encountered a line several people deep but these girls were on it, ushering people up and getting them out. One lone stool at the counter, I felt as though I blended in, if even just for an hour. Seeing commuters rush by-many with this bag in hand-made me miss the city even more. Food here seems to be reliable, and it's not very expensive. I also like the Seagram's ginger ale 'skinny' cans I haven't seen anywhere else. Going to dread leaving since I won't be back again during my stay, but I look forward to adding them onto my restaurant roster next visit! read more

Elena C, I direct this review to you as the owner. I cannot recall the last time I had a tasteless slop of a sandwich you call Prosciutto Cotto. It is not Prosciutto and if it really is, it is of the lowest quality. Just simply awful and not edible. read more

I love this place, just what the area needs. A custom, self serve, quality assortment of quick to-go items for breakfast or lunch. You can choose from the self serve stations or order how you would like over the counter. Salads, sandwiches, soups, pastas, pizzas, you name it. They also have an assortment of beverages such as coffees and smoothies. There is literally something here for everyone. Though there is some seating this place is more targeted to go. read more

I catered for a Saturday delivery and they said no problem. When I got the slider not only were they cold they left out half the order which was a vegetarian option. I I emailed and called and no one was there on Saturday . The next day Omar said he refunded the part order I did not receive. But no thank you no offer of 10 perfect next order nothing Thee should not take orders for Saturdays if there is no one there to call. And truly it came cold do I think they made it Friday and refrigerated it and sent it off on Saturday Shame on them I will never order again form Mangia. THIS IS A FAIR REVIEW AS IT WAS MY EXPERIENCE AND NO ONE REsPONDED ON SATURDAY. read more

Consistent, reliable and fast! Great spot to grab lunch while at the office. Not to mention they have the prettiest desserts. read more

Bad experience they don't understand English wanted my sandwich wrapped in tinfoil and couldn't do it and they have no half-and-half. Food is horrible and prices are very high and quality is low. No half/half for a coffee place is pretty much a big deal. Spend the money and have it for your clients. I've been going to Managia for over 15 years and it's an overpriced and not worth it. New coffee shops open down the block better and cheaper and have half/half. Sorry your employees didn't understand English. 100 truths. I've been working in this area for over 20 years. Sorry to say it's a waste of money read more

This cute little bakery had so many options - somehow I decided to go with pizza. This was so filling and loved the mushrooms and their chewy texture. Wish it had more pesto and maybe lemon and basil to really add flavors. Also the pizza wasn't as cheesy as I usually prefer but nevertheless i was very happy i also got a cookie and it was chefs kiss so good and sweet - been craving a dessert for so long! will come back to try their hot plates read more

Customer was absolutely not helpful. My company made an order for 3/24/25 and it was delivered on 3/20/25. Although they admitted it was an accident on there end, they did not compromise with another order or anything else. We will no longer be ordering from Mangia unfortunately. read more

Coffee, sandwiches, salad bar. wasn't that busy when we came in and had some available seats inside and outside.

Maybe look for social media reels or posts about ordering and purchasing if you're visiting and trying for the first time, especially during a busy rush. Their espresso is the best I've ever tasted. The staff is friendly and the ambiance is clean, elevated and sophisticated. Highly recommend. read more

I love Mangia but got a rude awakening when I asked for butter with my croissant. I was charged over a dollar for a single pat of butter. Imagine if I wanted two. Nor did the counter person alert me to the charge until I asked. The croissant was costly enough at approx $5.00 -- (tasty and worth it) -- but I'd be willing to pay more with the butter inclusive rather than feel as if I'm being nickel and dimed to it. Mangia is terrific, and I'll be back, but charging for butter was not a great experience for this customer. read more

The selections presented something for everyone. Given that am not a "bread for lunch"kinda gal, honestly speaking, I won't mind repeating the Chicken salad sandwich. Even the vegetarians among us had choices. Honorable mention- the bread. A little crunch on the outside, melt on your tongue soft on the inside. Oooo I could just imagine what some warmth and butter would do! The salads were ok as well. I can see why Mangia is a viable lunch destination option. read more

The reviews here do not fairly represent how great or how popular Mangia is! It's hands-down one of the best lunch spots in the area. I have been getting lunch here a couple times a week for the past year and, even when it's busy (and, it does get busy!), I don't think I have ever had to wait more than a few minutes to order a sandwich or line up to pay. The staff are all efficient and friendly and the food and ingredients are fresh and high quality. They have great cabinet food at the front but if you go to the back, you can get any sandwiches or salads (or hot food) made-to-order. A definite favorite spot. read more

Ordered a dessert platter (fruits, cookies, brownies)for 7 people @ $100. Small box with some cookies and three tiny brownies. Fruit was mostly cantaloupe and honey dew. Kind of a joke. The markup on this item must be extraordinary. Didn't get any help when I called either. read more

They have all sorts of stuff here. I originally thought this was a coffee shop only but I was wrong. I got some carrot cake and yogurt with fruit. Everything was good and tasted like they were made fresh. In the back they also have omelettes and hot breakfast stuff. It reminds of a higher end deli/market where they serve breakfast/lunch/dinner that are ubiquitous to nyc. They do have Upstairs seating but unfortunately closed because of covid. They also have a couple tables outside. It is a cool spot to stop in for some food. Check it out. read more

I fell in love with Mangia the instant I entered and never turned back -- it's now been about 3 years since I've been dining here. Mangia 57th is spacious given its upstairs and downstairs seating area. Out of all locations, it has the biggest antipasto bar. The catering is prepped upstairs and it's a nice thing to watch. The management is always on site, and the staff is friendly -- they remember faces. It gets quite busy during lunchtime due to midtown business hours. Food is always good. However, in comparison to the other locations, the salad makers are less giving with the protein portions. Plus, the bathroom is tight and typically 1/2 are out of order for the females. One thing I have noticed as well is that the online Mangia app doesn't have the teriyaki salmon as a salad protein option - hopefully this will be updated soon! read more

The vegan cookies here were really quite good! We got to them before I could even take a photo. I didn't get any photos of the inside because we got them delivered but they were delicious. For being vegan these were so fluffy but they were a little more like a muffin than a cookie but still great nonetheless! read more

Still one of the best go to casual places for something great to grab and go in the city.

Mangia is a pretty decent lunch spot in Midtown where you can quickly pick up a tasty bite whether it be order on the spot and prepared or by per pound salad bar style. Kind of like a slightly upgraded Bread & Butter. Came here with a coworker recently to pick up lunch and there was a healthy amount of people for the current times. Went to the back where they had the pizza and entree/meal section to order and went with the short rib and shroom pappardelle daily special ($15). Pricier but nothing crazy for your everyday work lunch and on that note, you'd pay close~ for a relatively less satisfying salad bowl with meat. The meal itself was prepared pretty well though - nice amounts of short ribs, mushrooms and pappardelle and tastes great for a quick on the spot order. Will check it out more in the future. read more

If you like authentic Italian with an old school vibe, this is your place. The food is delicious & the atmosphere is beautiful

Group event. We had 40 people so it was a fixed buffet. Caesar salad, rigatoni with marinara, chicken Marsala, steamed veggies, breads. All of it was fresh and delicious. I was so impressed with the veggies!!! There was easily 6 different kinds of veggies if not more. But then.....the cookies. The cookies made in house. Fuggedaboutit. They were amazing. Period. So impressed for our group dinner that I expected to be low class cheap. Thank you!! read more

Giving them 2 stars. The women at the breakfast bar were not the friendliest. They gave me the wrong food and gave me a hard time when I asked for a bag after they rung me up. There was barely anyone there and they seemed frazzled. I'm very frustrated that i received the wrong order and noticed when it was too late. read more

Looks like service is to blame for the poor rating here, but everyone we encountered was friendly and efficient. We needed sustenance before crossing the park, so we shared a prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich on olive bread with some really excellent roasted peppers, a piece of layer cake with marshmallow frosting and a cup of coffee. All I kept saying was, "I wish there was a place like this across the street from where I work." Not a destination in its own right, but lots of delicious options for lunchtime if you happen to work nearby. read more

Ordered via Seamless while working OT. The short story? It did the job but I'm not impressed. I ordered the grilled salmon with whipped cauliflower and steamed broccoli, as well as roasted Brussel sprouts and the Greek salad. The salad had no greens at all. This would be fine if I knew that going in. Yes, it said "tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and feta with a vinaigrette" but it's a safe assumption that this meant ON greens, not in place of. The whipped cauliflower wasn't whipped at all. It was riced... in some type of cream sauce. The brussel sprouts were definitely steamed as there was no crunch/crisp to them whatsoever. I was ready to write it off as not being good because of delivery but surprisingly, the salmon was the star of the show. It wasn't a huge portion but it was cooked well and tasted good. The menu *looks* great, but this won't get added to my OT rotation. Also, I'm confused on their hours. Google says they close at 6. Yelp says 7. I ordered at7:30... read more

Food is delicious but delivery/pick up service is awful. They always forget things and when you call them, they are not apologetic at all because they know they make enough money from corporate clients. Between my coworkers and myself, we easily give this establishment over $100/day but honestly they don't care so I think it is best to give our business elsewhere. read more

I've been coming here for lunch and occasionally breakfast for just over 30 years now and they also cater and deliver pretty much every corporate meeting for us. Excellent ingredients.

In a neighborhood where there is no shortage of breakfast and lunch options, Mangia on 57th reigns supreme. read more
