Fun place we went for the night scene because we were too late for some dinner time. Had fun here this is a big place a few stories. Good music and drinks all night we had a blast. Was close to our hotel. We went twice

Cotton candy drink was my favorite !!

My first time coming here and it was a cool vibe minus the hectic parking areas. There was a group of 15 of us and we enjoyed dinner and entertainment but lord the half naked women at the front door is too much. Food was 3/5 but drinks were 5/5. I enjoyed the different rooms for dancing but it's nothing I'd make a point to Come back again.

So first I love ambiance it reminds me of an art deco, swanky jazz bar it has live music the walls have fun paintings and art so it's perfect for photos. Now I was a little disappointed bc they no longer have the arial show that they had years ago. The food was amazing all the drinks were great flavorful not watered down even the alcoholic and non-alcoholic ones, the lobster pasta was amazing, the salmon with creamy mushroom omg was actually to die for, it wasn't too salty or too fatty I was so full but just had to finish it cause it was that good. Someone at my table got creamy risotto and that was also amazing, the apps of fried calamari and Caribbean coconut shrimp were soooo delicious and with the sauces that come with it. Our waiter was so nice he gave great recommendations and accommodate us as best he could, even brought our complimentary cake for the anniversary we were celebrating

This place?? A whole experience. It's giving Vegas + Miami + a telenovela dance battle. Yes, the drinks are a little pricey but honestly? You're getting way more than just a drink. There's acrobatic dancers flipping around, a full-on Bad Bunny mini concert vibe, and live performances that keep you entertained the whole time.The DJ was actually really good too played everything I wanted to hear, no weird mixes or buzzkills. The energy was fun without being overwhelming, and the crowd felt like everyone just wanted to have a good time.It was a birthday night and Mango's made it feel special. Definitely not my last time here.

My friends ordered a couch for the event and it took the staff a while to get us seated but after that it was an absolute blast. Great music. Great service. Polite staff.

The food was good. Our waiter was attentive and welcoming. The ambiance was nice after 10 p.m it turned into a club. Unfortunately we missed the show. They had dancers on stage dressed in costumes. From what I seen it was very entertaining

We celebrated my daughter's graduation at Mango's Tropical Cafe, and we had an amazing time. We had made a reservation, so they sat us down right away. We enjoyed our drinks and appetizers while watching live performances: s guitar player, dancers, and singers. The food was good, but the service was slow. They brought the ribs first, and after 10 minutes, they brought the Fajita. My girls were done eating when they finally brought my salmon. Thankfully, the DJ was not shy on his great repertoire, so I didn't focus on having my dish last. I was going to order another drink, but my server brought the ck. Then they discreetly asked us our table as it was going to be converted to a VIP section. Overall, it's a great place for a fun night out, and my graduate enjoyed the experience. I can see myself going back next time I'm in Orlando.

Cinco de Mayo on a Sunday

Different vibes on a Sunday, Cinco de Mayo. The price for margarita is 18$ on the 2nd floor and 10$ on 1st floor. Wait staff was always roving around, friendly, and fast. Great atmosphere and music.

The promoter who represents mango's who got mad because I said Lyfe Jennings never showed up

I never posted about any events, only factual information. I spent over $1,800 to attend a Lyfe Jennings concert, which he failed to attend. As a professional promoter, you sent me a text stating that you would not take any further action on my behalf, despite previously committing to make things right after I expressed my dissatisfaction on Facebook. However, I did not post on Facebook; Gmoney did. Bad business practices.

The hype of this place has always been for the shows and the club at night, but I was entertained and felt like the shows were great, and they had some decent food and drink packages to go with it. I actually came for a company event so I'm not sure how much it cost to actually get in for their regular selected club nights, but I do know they get packed fairly quickly ! Parking Lot is a bit smaller given the size of the restaurant , but they just now opened the new parking lot in case you can't find any in the front. Service was great and our waitresses were very helpful and attentive to our refills and wants. Given this was my first time I would say it was a great show and nice place to go, but I wasn't too impressed with the food. They're mainly known more for the drinks and the club scene. I still would recommend to come and check out their great entertainment and service.

Celebrated my birthday here with wifey. I was welcomed in the front entrance with a photoshoot, after that we were walked to our table. The ambiance was friendly. Good stage of latin presence. The entertainment was great! 2 hrs of theatrical singing/dancing from Columbia, Mexico, Cuba, Brazil. Additional to that, even had a Magic Show and Michael Jackson! A mixed flavor of everything. There was an after show that demonstrated art and music. It was really cool. The food on the other hand was just ok, not saying it was great but just ok. Had a filet mignon with potato and asparagus. My wife had the sea bass with Rice and asparagus. Seabass was very good but that orange rice they served us tasted spoiled! We brought it up to attention and did not want to make a big fuss about it. Filet Mignot was alittle overcooked. Again just ok. We did order a 96 ounce fish bowl with assorted alcohol. Now that was great loo! They gave me my cake and wished me happy birthday, which was a kind gesture. Overall, I recommend this place for a latin vibe. The show is a production which entertained my wife and I which all that matters. Congo line and dancing. Some of the hottest Latinas I have seen that exhibited talent. They both serve food and dance their butts off! Not to mention friendly service from my waiter. The attitudes of every individual worker here was welcoming. Which subseudes the average food. This is why I give this place 5 stars. The beauty of the people and great customer service!! They always attended to my needs. I recommend this place to have a latin experience. I do advise Mangos to clear all the tables on the dance floor so you can dance! The chairs was killing the club scene experience.

Ask the Community - Mango's Tropical Cafe

Are kids allowed after dark?

I would say no. The place turns into a club after hours. I guess it depends on how early you go. They have a Drag Show on Wednesday nights that starts at 8p.

Is the music Latin?

Mostly Latin music is played, yes.

Is this place open and doing stage show?

Yes. The individual clubs were closed when I went. Just the main area was open and there were shows.

What is the cover charge for a Sat. night, after 10:00?

Ranges from $5 to $20 as the night progresses and is also based on occupancy.

Are children allowed?

Yes children are allowed and they dance

Is it possible to actually speak with the owner?

I have been there several time and never met the owner but the place is very actractive and the girls beautiful

Are the live shows all the week or just for the weekend? Do I have to make a reservation?

I believe the show is live every night. Reservations are recommended but not required, but if you don't make a reservation you won't be guaranteed entry either. However, if you are going Friday, Saturday or Sunday you best make a reservation.

It is there a cover charge?

Sort of. The way me and my family did it was make an online reservation and you have to put down a $10 per person reservation deposit which goes towards you food that you order during the dinner show. That is for the early show though. The late… 

What is the best thing to order from the Ala cart menu?

I had soup of the day, black bean, wedge salad, prime rib. All were delicious.

How much can I expect to spend for a night out at Mango's for dinner and drinks?.... Thanks in advance

For two people, about $150 - $200. You have to make reservations for dinner with a $25 pp deposit. Then you have to order from the prefixe menu which is about $50 pp.

Hay que pagar en la entrada?

No, se necesitó pagar

Until what time minors can be there? Can I do my 17th birthday there?

Until 10:30-11 pm! Yes you can and I️ highly recommend it! Give Mango's a call and they'll talk you through the reservation process!

Until what time minors can be there?

Minors are allowed to stay until around 10:30-11pm every night. After that it turns 21+.

Can kids attend mangos? My daughter is 7

Absolutely. Kids can even go on stage to dance and have fun.

So of course, when I went to Pal Campo Restaurant, I had to order the paella. I didn't dine in this time, I grabbed it to go. First impression? They definitely got my attention because there was a big ol' lobster sitting right on top! Now THAT is how you introduce me to a plate of paella. The flavor was really good, the seafood was good, and overall I enjoyed it. My one issue was the peppers and onions. There were a LOT of big chopped pieces that I could clearly see and taste, and for me, that was a little bit of a turnoff. I prefer everything in my paella to blend together a little more. But did that stop me from eating it? Absolutely not. And here's the funny part. I ate the leftovers the next day and somehow it tasted even better! Maybe everything just needed a night to get acquainted because that second-day paella was hitting. So, as your self-appointed traveling paella inspector, I'm giving this one a 8/10. The flavor was there. The lobster definitely earned some extra points. I just needed those peppers and onions to calm down a little bit.

All the ladies were on point. And when guest left, a table did not remain unclean for more than 30 seconds before they all rushed to help clean it. The space is the perfect quaint size for a family dinner or even a small party. There were plenty to go orders which is telling. The community clearly knows the food is good.

I was visiting Orlando and I have a lot of friends and family here. My niece took us here for lunch with high praises of the place. I was excited since I haven't eaten good Dominican outside of the few dishes I've learned how to make over the years. We arrived and immediately began to order. There were a lot of us so I will only review what I ate. I ordered a small sancocho to start. It was ok, but was seriously devoid of seasoning. From the start you could tell they were playing it safe with the flavors. Trying to appease as many tongues as they could. I hadn't had sancocho in a very long time, so I was seriously disappointed. For my main course I ordered the monfongo with pernil. Where the sancocho lacked flavor the monfongo and pernil over reached. It was crazy salty. Like way too salty. I could only get through a few spoonfuls before I called it quits. I then turned to some of my wife's rice and beans and was right back to flavorless. About the only thing that tasted even was the chicharon de pollo. But even that was lack luster. It's always hard to find a good Dominican food restaurant. I will keep searching but till then I guess I will just continue to hone my skills at cooking it at home. The atmosphere itself was good. Sort of a mid-stage afternoon spot. Nice, clean, nothing too trendy or new. Just an average spot. If you have never had Dominican food this may be the spot for you. Something safe so you aren't over whelmed by flavors. If you grew up on it like me, I feel you will be disappointed.

Before arriving, I called to confirm that it would be acceptable to walk in without a reservation and was told that it would. Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing from the moment we arrived. The server immediately expressed frustration about accommodating a large party without a reservation. We were then directed to a table intended for six people, with the expectation that three adults and the children would share a single bench in an extremely cramped arrangement. When I politely requested an additional two-seat table so everyone could be seated comfortably, the manager's response was simply that we could "take it or leave it." Given the lack of professionalism and unwillingness to reasonably accommodate our group, we chose to leave. We will not be returning to this location.

The empanada came LOADED with shredded beef and this empanada didn't skimp out on quality. It tastes so good when you dip it with the green sauce and it was chef's kiss.

Cons- There is ALWAYS a weird perm smell when you go. It literally smells like someone is perming their hair, so not good. Another con is sometimes it takes long to get your food. And last but not least, I think their prices are not reasonable lately. Some of the prices do not match their menu, not sure when they raised their prices but I have never ever heard of a patacon costing almost $26 anywhere, and I frequent a lot of Venezuelan spots. Their name went from Q'Kenan restaurant to Q'Kenan Steakhouse so maybe now they just raised all the prices, I don't know. Their most expensive patacon on the menu is the one with Picańha and it says $17...yet I got charged 25.90. Regardless of how good something is, there shouldn't be a $9 difference from what is on the menu. That is absurd. On my last trip- $43 for an empanada, tequeńos and a patacon just doesn't sound right for Venezuelan food, and I come from living in Miami where restaurants are supposed to be more expensive. Add a tip and you're paying over $50 for street food. That's wild.
