    Sudanese vegetable combo from Natoli at Mango House!
    Megan B.

    Mango House is a wonderful institution on colfax that i frequent often as im lucky enough to live close by. I've gotten to experience so many new foods thanks to their program that helps immigrants start their own food businesses. I've had Burmese, Nepalese, Haitian, Sudanese and more and its so much fun to come and try something new! This place is so welcoming and it feels like im getting a home-cooked meal out of their kitchens. The pride and joy the people put into everything here from the food to the shops is really something special.

    This is a very casual food hall, no adult drinks of any kind. Very cafeteria-like but it does have an international vibe with the handful of food stalls. I think there were about 4 or 5 of them. For me personally, there wasn't anything too crazy that I haven't tried before. There were a few interesting items at the middle eastern/mediterranean/greek place but I could only eat so much at once! Lol I went with Ethiopian food though they didn't have a combo, it was either all veggie or all meat. I was worried if the meat would be fatty, so I went with all veggie. Very tasty still! They have some other centers inside there and a jam packed overloaded Asian grocery store. For parking, if you don't want to park on Colfax, there is a back lot. It's poorly marked, though. You have to pretend you're going to the bank parking. Eventually as you follow that, you'll see the Mango House parking. They did close earlier than expected, as well. I think what Google said was off by an hour. If you go later in the day, might want to double check that before you go.

    I highly suggest coming here for your Ethiopian fix. There is plenty of space to park, so there's no excuse. I came into the back entrance and it's not what I expected. It's essentially a hall almost like a food court and it has a handful of stores that sells clothing from the motherland, a handful of offices, such as law office and dentist office and of course a handful of restaurants. Most of the things in there were African, but there was one library and all the materials that I saw that were out on display was in Spanish. This place accepts all race all creed all people. I went to, the restaurant called Natoli. Ordered the veggie combo and shakla tibs. The veggie combo was huge and we had to take it home. The beef was simply delightful, and we finished that in one sitting. The beef is good enough for one person while the veggie you could probably share that for two people. They also have soft drinks and bottle water to sell. After ordering, it took about 15 minutes to get our food. Midway through our meal the owner came over and started chatting with us. She was super sweet and talked about the food. You can tell she makes it with love It taste just like that because it wasscrumptious.

    The colorful building is a bright gem in this neighborhood. The neighborhood itself is a bit transitional and may feel uncomfortable to walk if you park in certain areas. Stick to parking at the main entrance and you won't have any issues. The mission and community built by the Mango House is incredible. Providing resources to those navigating immigration. The shops, the food, the people were excellent. I enjoyed learning about the various cuisines the most. We got the Burmese foods and it was delicious! Service was excellent! I found it convenient having a sink in the dining area to wash up before and after dining. The staff helped bus tables but also provide bins for those that are able to assist.

    Our supper club has been wanting to go to mango house for a long time and we finally did a couple weeks ago. We wish we went a little earlier on in the evening because a lot of the restaurant options were closed when we got there, but we ate at Urban Burma and confidently ordered at least half the menu. Everything we ate was delicious and the people there were incredible. Mango house seems like a very cool mix between a community center, incredible food, family services, and shops. What a cool place that I'm looking forward to going back to. I'm also excited to watch the documentary that was made about it because I haven't gotten to do that yet!

    Mango House is a nice resource for cultural knowledge. And to top it off, it is home to a couple food businesses. It's tucked away in North West Aurora off of Colfax. There's plenty of parking, but may be crowded on bus hours. My favorite so far there is Urban Burma, but I still need to try a bunch of more of the places. I have my eyes on 509 Cuisine which is Haitian food. Mango House is a hidden gem and can't wait to come back!

    Lots of yummy places in this little mall. We ate at Urban Burma and it was amazing. I would highly recommend this--lots of good for a good price if you're looking for authentic Burmese food. It was my first time trying it and I can't wait to go back! There isn't any ambience since it's in a strip mall but if you're strictly looking for somewhere yummy, this is a good place.

    Mango house is a fantastic stop. If you were coming just for the food it would be completely worth it, but this place is so much more than that. It appears that each place in here is either run by refugees from other countries or those representing those countries. There is a food court, a medical center, and other shops throughout the location. I only got a chance to try the Bernese food, but based on the reactions and feedback from the other people, everything else was fantastic as well. You will have to made a few stops and I can guarantee you won't be let down!

    Lots of interesting food and shops at mang house.

    This place is a real find with tons of interesting food tiny shops. I had a hard time choosing what to eat but I think Burmese is the one.

    This is it

    I loved this place! Welcome to a large ethnic food hall that has some amazing places! Here, there should be something for everyone! Both the Syrian and the Ethiopian places that I've tried blew me away- they were absolutely delicious and some of the best I've found in the city. This place also has Nepalese and Japanese style restaurants which I didn't try yet, but it seems the competition is stiff here- I wouldn't be surprised if they were also fantastic. Mango House has some amazing food and it's an interesting place to go, therefore I definitely recommend it for foodies- it's a must try! I'll definitely be back from time to time when I'm in the area. Enjoy & happy eating!!

    Is so hard to know what to order with so many food I am unfamiliar with. Tried a gyro sandwich that was very, very fair. Seems like the gyro meat was the kind you buy at Costco. Need to go back.

    What a hidden little gem off of Colfax... Yes! Colfax! This venue offers authentic ethnic food options from various cuisines. The owners of each of these mini-take out restaurants are hoping to start their own stand alone restaurants. Try out Burmese, Ethiopian, Syrian, African, or Asian dishes... made fresh and on the spot. Mango House also has little clothing shops and access to medical and dental care. We stopped in for lunch on Saturday afternoon and were greeted by various store owners with such inviting and warm welcomes. I'd stop in again to see what new cuisine is being highlighted!

    My wife, daughter and I accidently stumbled into this wanting something "different". We had Syrian and Ethiopian and everything was not only fast and reasonably priced but the folks were extremely welcoming and friendly. I've eaten at Mom and Pops in many places around the world and this surprise on Colfax was a remarkable find. We'll be back (probably ever time we go nearby!)

    We ordered something from every food stall and it was AMAZING!!

    Ask the Community - Mango House

    Is there adequate seating?

    Yes! There's a bunch of tables and chairs near the colfax ave entrance

    Are there safe gluten free options for celiacs?

    Yes! My friend found many gluten free options. She is really allergic that she has an allergic reaction from touching something with gluten and not washing her hands before accidentally touching her mouth

    When does the food court close?

    The restaurants close anywhere from 7 to 8 pm depending on the specific place.

    Are there vegan options?

    Each of the 6 food vendors inside Mango House could probably put together at least a couple vegan offerings, but none of them are really catering to vegans specifically.

    I took an adult watercolor class for three sessions in December. I signed up for this class because…read moreI am familiar with watercolor but I wanted more ideas, tips, and techniques to improve my skills. For the first session, we had a sub for the class and she seemed apprehensive on how to lead the class. The two hours consisted of us essentially having free time to paint and a few basic brush movements. The second class was then led by the main instructor who seemed more confident and taught us basic skills such as painting wet on wet, dry on dry, etc, however this should've been done the first week. Additionally, the supplies we were given were not great, most of the paints we were given were out of certain colors and we were given a small number of papers and had to request for more if needed, which felt unnecessary. After she went over these ideas, she let the class go on Pinterest and choose a painting they'd like to replicate. She would walk around and give positive praise, however, did not offer feedback or various ideas on how to improve the painting. I love the concept and idea of this class, however, I'm disappointed this felt more like a free paint time rather than an instructional class for paying almost $200.

So what happened to us was that we could get our oldest into both before and after lunch programs but we couldn't get our youngest in both. Why? Because they sold out some of the afternoon? I think a business like this would schedule full day over 1/2 days.... Of course they were completely inflexible as far as the youngest kid. "You can join waitlist" "And if i don't get in you would allow me to cancel the other?" "No. " Seriously? You would stick me to a camp i couldn't get him home for? Whatever ... Then we were less than impressed with an afternoon teacher. Both my son and cousins referred her as "mean" "What is mean" "Like if you missed a step and asked a question, she would snap "ask another student" I did contact art garage and what I didn't get was so much as an apology just "I'll talk to teacher" and "appreciate your feedback". And even an excuse around the line of "self reliance" No being yelled at by a teacher to talk to ask other students makes people feel belittled and stupider than their classmates. Obviously not qualified to work with kids. This was the only bad camp experience this year. Though they did appreciate my feedback - so I'll assume they will appreciate this review.

My initial interaction with Mr. Rusch, following another instance of disparate treatment, was marked by his unprofessional demeanor. He addressed me in a condescending manner, wagging his finger in my face and lecturing me about service while having zero clue about my commitment to serving my community(the fact that I was already volunteering my time wasn't enough).

This non-profit organization, which compensates its director over $200,000 annually, as revealed in their most recent tax filings, has a history of racial discrimination that they attempt to conceal and dismiss. Upon reviewing their website, it is evident that Gold Crown's decision-making staff lacks minority representation. This absence, particularly in a sport with the highest minority participation in the state, serves as compelling evidence suggesting that Gold Crown does not take diversity seriously and lacks the ability to have at least one impartial and representative voice on their team.

Many of the animals were active until around 10:30/11 when the temperature warmed up. Right out of the welcome center, we saw 2 of their jaguars (which we were told are usually pretty elusive), some foxes, bobcats, bears, and to our happy surprise, a cheetah. It came out of the shade in the back of its habitat and approached the fence close to the walkway because an employee was driving by. It sat there for awhile until the employee drove off, so we were able to get lots of pictures. My son LOVES cheetahs, so this was definitely a highlight for us. Of course, when we mentioned it to not 1, but 2 employees/volunteers, they both said that that sanctuary location doesn't have any cheetahs. I showed them the pictures and they stated that it was a leopard. While they certainly do have a leopard (which we also saw), this was indeed a cheetah. So, my 1 suggestion to the sanctuary is to educate the staff on the animals there. Aside from that, we also saw wolves, lions, tigers, and camels. Be prepared to walk the 3 miles round trip. Bring lots of water and snacks (they have bathrooms and shaded rest stops along the way). Bring binoculars (or rent theirs for $10 like we did)--the sanctuary is expansive, far beyond what's next to the walkway. And take your time! We told our littles that the animals were playing hide and seek. It is a worthwhile experience!
