Such an amazing find. Very spacious layout, tons of staff on duty to ensure smooth and attentive service. Alfredo sauce was the best I’ve ever had in my life (I’m 29). Chicken parm was phenomenal as well. Large selection of desserts. Caesar and bread were great also!

My son and I stumbled upon this restaurant tonight and were pleasantly surprised by how delicious the food was. My son commented how friendly all the staff was and that we have to make this place a regular visit.

This was my third visit to Mandala's. Great dining addition to our area. Very cute decor and atmosphere. The food has been delicious each visit. My most recent visit I had fettuccine Alfredo - very tasty. Previous visit i enjoyed lasagna - very tasty. I have also had their pizza - very tasty. From their dessert case, I've had chocolate, chocolate cake - delicious! Also, I highly recommend their cheesecake - excellent! So far, I'm batting 1000 dining with Mandala's. I definitely recommend giving them a try the next time you have a craving for delicious Italian food. By the way, the bread and oil they serve every table is EXCELLENT!

It was such a wonderful experience. I have severe reactions to gluten, so funding a place that: #1 Understands universal precautions for cross contamination and #2. offers gluten-free pasta among other options! I was even able to enjoy a wonderful orange Gelato! Thank you to Louis and all the staff for taking such excellent care of us.

Our server at the bar Awa was so great! Very sweet and attentive. We had almond gelato and Italian Cream cake. Luis made an excellent double expresso for us! Our first time here and we really enjoyed it! We will be back!

Hands down some of the best food Ive ever tasted. Service was perfect and food was amazing. Restaurant was clean and roomy. I dont have a single complaint other than I wish I had room in my belly to try other dishes. Great job to the whole team, we WILL be back and bring others with us. Delicious!!!

We had a really fun time at Mandola’s. When we arrived, it was very bright and welcoming. The tables were clean, and the whole place looked spotless. A big plus for me was how clean the bathroom was. One thing I really liked was that you could see the people cooking in the kitchen. The food was amazing! My husband had the arugula prosciutto pizza with lemon, and it was absolutely delicious. I had the eggplant with spaghetti. It wasn’t prepared the way I usually like (I prefer fried eggplant), but it was still good. My daughter had the baked ziti with sausage, which was also delicious. For dessert, we had tiramisu and lemon sorbet both were incredible! Because it was my daughter’s birthday, they gave her a free dessert, which was such a thoughtful touch. We would definitely go back!

This an authentic Italian restaurant with a very diverse menu. My friend had the Chicken Piccata and I had a pizza. One of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. It was loaded with all the ingredients. I also had a slice of cheesecake, and it was perfection. Also, as a first-time patron, I was treated to cookies from the bakery! The coconut cake looked heavenly. The cocktails are on the pricey side and no Happy Hour, so I was surprised at my drink portion of my bill. Highly recommend.
