Come for the view, not for the food. The service is OK but the food really needs some help. The drinks are just packed with sugar and cheap liquor and the food is similar to fast food. The view is incredible though and this place attracts a lot of fun people so can be a good time. Just don't come expecting a great dinner. read more

What's better than sitting outdoors overlooking the ocean with a great drink, fun food and good service?

Location and Drinks = Awesome. Food - Terrible. I was expecting much and just ordered quickly off the menu but both my husband and I had terrible meals having lunch on a Sunday afternoon here. I had tequila chicken which was rubbery and was like they just dumped bbq sauce on top. My husband had salmon which was so under cooked and mushy. His asparagus was boiled and nothing had any seasoning on it. It's a shame for such a nicely decorated and AWESOME location/view that the food is not that great. Fun place I suppose for drinks on a sunny day but I wouldn't recommend the food. read more

Mango's is my must go to place in Bethany. Service is great and the servers are very personable. No Shower Happy Hour is great -- food is excellent for the price. We enjoy the dinner menu as well. read more

First of all my family and I tried the outdoor seating it was... Not so good. The table and seats were sticky. The little roof they had on top of us had giant spaces of nothing in between the wood. Eventually we had to move inside. Had to. Later when we got our app (Wings) we enjoyed it very much. Our Entree's were ok... My mother says the crab cakes were fine. She says they were edible, but again fine. My sister got the ceaser salad. She said the salad was over dressed, the lettuce quality was not great, and the dressing was not very good what so ever. She ended up having wings and my mother's other crab cake. I tried some and thought that was good. I got the Salmon. I've had better tasting salmon before. I had half. The mashed potatoes I thought were good though. We also had slow service, the food was over priced considering the quality of it, and I am glad my dad wasn't here for dinner or we would have been paying for even more bad quality food. We are not going to come back here. read more

The service was great but the calamari came out cold and had to be sent back, as well as our French fries. All in all the food was not great do not recommend read more

I like Mango's. Great frozen mango mangorita, sitting on the outdoor patio overlooking the ocean and boardwalk....pure relaxation! This place has three options for seating, inside (large bars and tables), outdoor covered, outdoor uncovered. My out of town quests have enjoyed Mango's. We usually order an assortment of appetizers to share and Mango Margarita's all for all. Never actually ordered a full meal, but appetizers have been good. Cannot beat the atmosphere at Mango's! read more

My husband and I went here for drinks and appetizers, first impression was the hostess's, the one was on the phone the whole time the other was ok, not really friendly. Also the hostess stand was clear glass with shelves, there was random half eaten food on these shelves, disgusting! Also I heard them say to someone that you can't sit at a table just for drinks you need to buy drinks and a minimum of 2 appetizers. We sat at the bar and the bartender was great, friendly and on top of everything. Another random observation was there was one plate of fried shrimp and fries sitting by the register that every employee was eating off of if they had a second to shove something down their throat! Do the employees not get a break, I don't know seems kinda weird! We only order the coconut shrimp and chicken wings, also drinks!, all of it was good! read more

Overwhelmed, overpriced, mediocre service and unflavored food/fries. The pina colada was a mislead. Looks nothing like their picture and tasted terrible. read more

I've had two extraordinarily poor experiences here so I feel just in giving Mango Mike's 1 star. The first time, we saw our waiter exactly one time: to take our order. Someone else brought our food and then that was it. No one ever came to check on us, or refill drinks, or give us our check. We waited for at least 30 minutes after eating and then finally just plopped some money down and left. That is the first and only time I've ever had to do that. The second time I ordered a drink which their menu stated was $6.95. Once we got our bill my drink was listed as $11. I brought it to our waiters' attention and he very politely said he would check on it. He came back and said that his manager wouldn't change the price because the drink is $11. I laughed, showed him the menu and said "well your menu seems to feel it's $6.95". After some back and forth he asked me if I wanted to speak with a manager and I said yes. Finally the manager comes out, very angrily presents me with an updated receipt and says "We'll make the change this one time but don't come back expecting us to do it again! This is an $11 drink; always has been." I wasn't trying to pull a fast one, but I was treated as if I was manipulating the system, like someone who shows up to happy hour for some free food but doesn't drink anything but water. I'm in Bethany every year and I will never ever come back here, even if the view is good. read more

OK, someone has *got* to explain to me why Mango's is supposed to be such a "treat". We have friends who have a house down in Bethany, and each time we come, they always drag us to Mango's. While I never have a *bad* time, I never understood why everyone makes such a big fuss about coming here. The drinks: decent. Most of the mixed drink specialties (that are served in novelty containers that you get to keep) taste like they were made from a mix and is always cloyingly sweet. However, if you go off the tropical drinks menu and order normal beverages, it's much better. The food: mediocre. They have the usual beach restaurant fare, like something crusted mahi, and the like. I've always found the food a little bland, but nothing terrible or unedible. The service: slow. I think the best service I've gotten was when I sit the bar. Which is generally always busy/packed. Yes, busy bar service is better than the table service. Ponder that for a minute. Basically...it's just a run of the mill restaurant. The view from the upper level is pretty good, but if you're here during the busy season, good luck trying to get a table outside. I did give this place a one star bump because the last time we were here, our friends and my husband got hit on by a bunch of cougars. Like, they were on the prowl and they weren't letting go of their prey. Heh. I know that I could have probably helped the boys out...but instead, the girls and I grabbed our bags, hopped in the car, and went back to the house...leaving the boys to the mercy of half a dozen drunk and horny cougars. Heh. I'm an *awesome* wife. read more

I will start with the good.. Location: As far as Bethany Beach is concerned the location could not be better. It is literally over looking the beach and they offer outdoor seating. The Rolls: There are only a few places that still have good bread..like really good homemade bread, that are not upper level restaurants. I got so full off of them I almost burst. The Bad The Food: I was with a group of 15 and I will say that some LOVED their food and some HATED it. Three of us ordered the Coconut Shrimp and Jerk Chicken (Which is a quarter leg piece) combo and we ALL disliked the chicken. It was dry, the seasoning was weird, etc etc etc. I tried to trade it for the jerk wings because the hot wings we had as an app were great. Me being dissatisfied with the meal meant nothing..lol. I was told "they are not going to do that". I guess I am spoiled. I worked in food service and our GM and the rest of the management team did whatever was needed to make sure someone left satisfied with their meal...even if it meant replacing the meal with something else or comping the entire meal and this was Olive Garden. Well...this ain't Olive Garden and I definitely wasn't family..lol. Most of the apps that we ordered were good, like Apple Bee's quality good. The Spinach Dip is watery. The Coconut Shrimp coating is rubbery and lacking crunch but the hot wings are good! I should have got the scallops :-(, one of the people in our party said they were good. My dish was 20 bucks but I've had five dollar fast food meals that were better :-(. The Service: She was really nice however, she was hard to catch and by the time she got to our table after her co-workers brought the food out the things that were needed like more bread, water, ketchup, ect were almost mute since the meal was almost over. Again, no one is expecting 4 to 5 star service but just basic . read more

Ate at Mikes on 7/7. Fine food, fine drinks but great view of the boardwalk! Definitely turned off by the hostesses. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, but they were decidedly unpleasant. Our server who I believe was named Brenda was lovely. Helpful, attentive and charming. She was great with the kids at our table. Made the meal. Another plus? Primo air conditioning. read more

Come to Mango Mike's only because it's the only bar that fits a bunch of sandy beach bums in it comfortably, and because they offer a Happy Hour with a few drinks and beers as well as half-priced food to soak up the alcohol. Don't expect your tastebuds to be dazzled, though - I guarantee a 12-year-old could make better nachos, and the chicken fingers were barely edible. Tuna tartar was the only worthwhile food option we tried. The Mangorita tastes like it came out of a container and like it's loaded with high fructose corn syrup and other artificial non-foods. The John Daly is easy enough to push down, although not entirely enjoyable. This is a good place to watch games. Happy hour ONLY applies to the bar area - don't bother trying to negotiate this. read more

This place has changed a lot since the last time I was here. Not sure if the owner/management or cook has changed. Unfortunately, the food quality has gone down hill big time. I ordered the coconut shrimp as my meal. The rice was over cooked and had no flavor. The black beans were ok at best, and they also lacked flavor. Then we get the star of the dish. The coconut shrimp. That's where the disappointment really set in. The shrimp were over cooked and dripping in oil. I can honestly say that I will not be coming back. Please someone fix this place. Please!!! read more

I think the lack of options in Bethany is the only reason that Mango's is often busy. Their service is beyond terrible. We went to Mango's for dinner and drinks and there was not hostess so we just say down at a table. Multiple waitresses walked right by us and never acknowledged us. After 10 minutes I asked on of them for our server and she told me I needed to see the hostess. I pointed out that there was no one at the hostess stand and she sighed loudly and told me that she would get someone. Finally a woman came over and informed is that they were now running a late night menu but she didn't know what was on it so she had to go get another server. 30 minutes after walking in the door we placed our order. The drinks took another 10 minutes and the food arrived and was terrible. The quesadillas had way too much cheese and contained no chicken. The chicken fingers were cold and had to be sent back. The wings were undercooked and should have been reported to the department of health. It pained us to even tip the servers because the whole experience was so incredibly awful. Never will I got back to this place. It's conveniently located but that's about it. Stay away! read more

Mango Mike's is exactly what you'd expect from a Delaware beach side bar/restaurant (great drinks, decent service, and average but overpriced food). If you go in thinking anything else, you'll be disappointed. Right frame of mind? Here we go: 1. Location - the best in Bethany. You're right in the heart of the boardwalk and there is a decent sized patio area of tables with great beach/ocean views. 2. Atmosphere - well themed, Caribbean decor, fish tanks, palm trees, etc. 3. Kids - kid friendly. Lots of high chairs, an elevator to get you and your stroller up, drinks in fish bowls. Standard kids menu items. 4. Happy hour - excellent! It runs from 1-6 (happy 5 hours!) with good discounts on food and drinks... beer was $2.50 a pint, which is exceptionally well priced for the beach. Downside is that it's only at the bar area. 5. Food - average at best. If you stick with the sandwich-type food, you'll be good. Main dishes are way overpriced for what you get. read more

We have been going to Mangoes for 12 years now every year when we go on vacation and will never go back there after tonight. We went with our family before the dinner rush and when we got to the hostess, she said she could not seat us unless we were all present (my husband was on his way up). Mind you, the place was completely empty and there were no other customers waiting. I said "OK" while I waited for my husband. The hostess then very rudely asked me to sit down while I was waiting. Again, the place was a ghost town and since my husband was about a minute away, I didn't think there was a problem with standing. We got seated and again she was very rude in her questions with us,almost like she was trying to get a rise out of us. Our dinner went smoothly although the $145 price tag wasn't worth it. Then, after, we were trying to get a Nice picture of our family, I set my bags down on an empty chair. There were about 20 empty tables where we were sitting and the hostess comes out there with a couple and asks me to move my bags because she needed that exact seat. I've never been treated so poorly at a restaurant that charges a ridiculous amount for cheap food. We will never go there again. Try Bethany blues or any other restaurant except Mangoes if you want exceptional service with better food. This place sucks!!!!! read more

The atmosphere of this restaurant is phenomenal. The bright colors and windows overlooking the beach/ocean give this place a "vacation" feel. The server was very good. He was attentive, timely, and able to answer all of the questions I had about the menu. The food was also very good. I recommend the "Shell Bowl" for those who like seafood. It was all cooked well and sampled multiple seafoods such as shrimp, clams, mussels, and scallops. The menu is expensive, but it is worth it! I come here every summer when I go on vacation and wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone visiting Bethany Beach! read more

Been here a few times to meet friendssince I live in Bethany full time. Service is consistent .... consistently terrible. Food is below average. The only thing they have is location. Go anywhere else! This is the worst restaurant/bar in all of the Delaware Beach towns. The mangorita, bleh, don't bother with it or any drink here. read more

Had the grilled mani mahi tacos. Excellent! Very flavorful. Service was quick and pleasant, good atmosphere, lightly lit and music was low enough to be able to talk. Def would come again. read more

Wow, seems like giving this place three stars is an outstanding review, compared to the other comments. I wonder if the same folks who rated Harpoon Hannah's so poorly also visited Mango Mike's. These are beach restaurants, folks. If you want fancy, visit Manhattan or South Beach. Mango's has the best restaurant views in Bethany Beach. The bar doesn't face the water, but it is raised above the main restaurant on a platform, with ramps leading up to the bar area - it gives the bar a decidedly beachy feel. Every server we encountered was pleasant. We went there for their Thanksgiving buffet (a great deal, $18 per head, all you can eat). The food was cooked in smaller than normal batches (for a buffet), ensuring a fresher quality. In addition to turkey and ham, they had a nicely broiled salmon. And all of the usual Thanksgiving fixins: Sweet potatoes (with marshmallows), red skin mashed potatoes, string beans, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and several different pies to choose from. I've been to the Mango's in Alexandria as well, and the two locations are like oil and water. The Bethany Beach spot is resort-like and family oriented (those looking for a big singles scene are encouraged to visit nearby Ocean City or Dewey Beach). The Alexandria location is meat market deluxe. But both spots do have those parrot drinks, where you can keep the parrot tumbler. One extra half star for that. read more

This place has such poor customer service ! My husband and I came for dinner on Monday night and after waiting 20 mins the girl came back and said sorry there r no tables for two just four!!! Are you kidding me! They would rather turn away business ... that's sad! My husband asked to speak with the manager but I preferred to leave Went down the road to Fenwick Island and got a great dinner at Just hooked!!! read more

Terrible start to finish. Hostess a grump. Nachos - the easiest appetizer ever - burnt, then left to sit until cold and soggy. Caesar salad with chicken presented without dressing. How does that happen? One star for a fun view of the boardwalk and a waiter who was pleasant. read more

I loved it here! It's the only place like this in Bethany. My husband and I sat outside on the deck, which overlooked the beach...it was beautiful. It was also at least 20 degrees cooler up there with the breeze than it was walking around town. We had a few beers and shared a nacho app. The nachos were decent, nothing to write home about, but nothing to complain about either. The beer was cold and delicious. While we were there my parents came and met us, they also had drinks and a chicken quesadilla app, they thought it was tasty. Then my brother, sister-in-law and nephew came up. They also ordered drinks. I felt bad for our waitress that we kept adding people and drinks, but she was super sweet and didn't mind at all. She happily accommodated us all. My only complaint (which I can kind of understand their reasoning behind) was that you cannot sit outside on the deck unless you are ordering food. If you only want drinks you have to sit in the bar area inside. That turned me off a little bit, but splitting an app counted as food, so it was all good and we were allowed to sit outside. This is the only reason they don't get 5 stars. read more

This place was awful. My fiancé got the $25 paella which was Mexican rice with a few mussels and clams. And a lot of chicken? Mostly chicken. What? Chicken? Why was there any chicken in this dish OR Mexican rice? It looked absolutely awful and he fed me some from it and it was very bad... I had a burger that wasn't good at all. View was OK. read more

The mahi mahi tacos were delicious! My girlfriend had the crab cake sandwich with french fries and said it was good. The jerk wings were tasty. The caesar salad with jerk chicken was good but the chicken was slightly overcooked. We would definitely come back again the next time we are at Bethany Beach. read more

Mango's - Caribbean Near Me - Bethany Beach, Delaware

Down in Bethany for a long Father's Day weekend. We went to Mango Mike's on Fathers Day for dinner at the spur of the moment - family of four including kids aged 3 and 5. At 6 the place was pretty empty for a Sunday evening. The big plus here is they have the best ocean view for dining in Bethany Beach. Otherwise, this Mango Mike's comes up a bit short. It's not too kid friendly either. The first thing my kids asked when we sat was "where is the coloring page and crayons?" The waitress scrambled and found a couple crayons and a half-sheet of white paper for each child. My wife and I both ordered the Orange Crush, which was dee-lish and quite strong. My wife asked for just a bit of orange juice to weaken the drink (which when the bill came I saw that we were charged $2.50 for a glass of OJ). That comes right off the tip in my book. The menu looks great with lots of choices. The kids menu is the usual - chicken tenders, hot dog, cheeseburger and noodles and butter, all priced around $6. My kids ordered the noodles, which was just a small plate of spaghetti. Add the lemondate, which I also found out when I got the bill was $2.50, and we paid around $9 each for kids to eat plain noodles and drink tap lemonade. We ordered crab and spinach dip which came out right away, but so did our entrees, about 2 minutes later. When I said "wow that was fast, we just got our dip" the waitress didn't pick up on it or didn't acknowledge. We both had pasta-based entrees with seafood that were decent but not worth the $20+ price tag considering the minimal amount of seafood in the bowl. I'd give it 2 1/2 stars vs. the 3. read more

Oh boy, two stars is dead on for this place. Went in one afternoon to take advantage of their mid day specials. After seeing the porch overlooking the ocean we knew this was going to be worth it. Or not. First, mid day specials are only available inside, which robs you of the beautiful view of the ocean. When we told the hostess we wanted to sit outside ,we were told it was for customers ordering food. I've never heard of anything so ridiculous, especially on a Monday afternoon. after a little posturing we finally got seated outside. Our waiter was pretty understanding which ended up being the only reason this place got an extra star. Orange crush is a bust, especially at 7.50. read more

Came yesterday while on vacation, service and food were ok, drink specials good for a tourist area. Returned today, and waited 30 minutes (no exaggeration). We were never served or approached for service. We ended up leaving and decided to save our money instead. We told the hostess what had happened on our way out. She glanced up from her cell phone to look at the table we had vacated (never looked at anyone in our party directly), and looked back down at her phone without acknowledging us. Not only negligent, but outright rude for no true reason. read more

This review is overdue! My boyfriend and I were in Bethany for a weekend getaway and came to Mango's for lunch. We got the bean dip for an app and it was good, but served cold. I wish the menu would have specified that it would be served cold, but I overlooked it because it really was good. Then I had the jerk chicken the boyfriend had the ribs. The flavors and the sauces were delish! We had a few drinks in a souvenir coconut and parrot as well and they were too sugary. Also, the views are stunning! read more

Mango's - Caribbean Near Me - Bethany Beach, Delaware

See all

Wonderful beach vibes, with aquariums placed inside. The bartender was helpful and I really loved the chicken quesadilla. Quality vibes

They were busy for a Holiday weekend but was able to sit us right away. The food came out fast. (maybe a little too fast we didn't even finish the appetizers yet). They had very fun drink choices! read more

Great ocean views and fun vibe. We had the jerk chicken wings and thought they were fantastic. Not too spicy but just enough heat. Reasonably priced for the location. Also very fun drinks! read more

DON'T FALL FOR THIS TRAP! They draw you in with the view, but trust me, that is all this place has going for it. They use their view to lure people in and literally put zero effort into anything else in the restaurant. It is your average tourist trap. Food is AWFUL. Prices are entirely too high for what you get. Good seats with a view are limited and hard to get. They have a weird reservation process for that, don't get me started. I feel duped. They lure you in with the view, and then make their profit by giving you the cheapest quality food on earth and charge you out the as* for it. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I won't be fooled twice. read more

I had this feeling Mango Mike's was gonna be amazing well, it sorta was. During my vacation to Bethany Beach with the whole family, I tried Mango's twice. The first time, my impression was that they were expensive and the service wasn't very good. The second time, they did much better. I've had the Yellowfin Tuna appetizer which was very delicious but missing something. Also, the CoCoLoCo Shrimp which was amazing and really "wowed" my tastebuds. The second visit I decided to treat myself to a Tiki Shooter which was 2 different rums and fruit juice. It was great and now I find myself wanting more. I would recommend Mango's to anyone who doesn't have small kids, my nephew & niece didn't like the kids meals. They have three choices and one of them being chicken fingers that are a bit spicy even for me. The view is amazing from the dining room, you can also eat outside or at the bar. read more

Where to start with this review? We arrived, a party of 9, for a late lunch around 1:30. We had to wait, which wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but this place was pretty empty. The hostess wasnt paying enough attention so when she came back from what I can only assume was her time getting our table ready, she had already forgotten who we were. We were seated at two tables out together. Again, not out of the ordinary, except they put together two tables of differing height. Uhh, what? My right elbow is two inches higher than my left as I type this out on my iPhone. We waited 20 minutes to place a drink order (which we also tacked on our food since we didn't want to keep waiting). Lets just say that they were out of 2 beers that I tried to order. Thankfully I didn't have to settle on a crappy Bud. When the food arrived, my mom's veggie burger hasn't been put in for the kitchen. My nachos were cold and soggy. The burger was decent. Tuna sandwich was "fine" according to my uncle. I wouldn't come back here even if it was the only open restaurant here. Oh wait, it was pretty much the only open restaurant when I was visiting. read more

Great location overlooking boardwalk. We ate lunch there and had no wait (@ 11:30AM). We were 7 in our group, 5 adults and 2 kids. The food is alright, the service is good. We had crab cake sandwiches (small crabcake on a huge roll), seared tuna sandwiches (good), jamaican jerk sandwich (good), chicken fingers (OK). All in all not a bad meal- just not memorable either. read more

I could have made the pasta in 2 mins at home, no flavor. Very basic. Payingn for the view

Second star for our friendly waitress. One star for food and drinks. We ordered wings and 5 minutes later they came out cold. I pressed my finger in and felt some warmth but they'd obviously been sitting for ten + minutes from someone else's order. I didn't want to get into sending them back and asking for a fresh order because I just assumed they'd do the same again and maybe throw them in the microwave. I asked for a margarita and specified please only tequila, triple sec and fresh lime juice. I confirmed they had the ability and the waitress went to check and said yes. My drink came with roses like or something else other than lime juice. My girlfriends drink was watered down and tasted like a remake from a drink that had sat a while. We sent it all back and asked for a check, explaining we were unhappy and just wanted to leave. No manager ever came. We left extremely disappointed. I will not ever trust Mangoes for anything, neither food nor bev. read more
