Wine selection is extensive (see photos), good service and great Italian food!My husband went out to celebrate a good event and ate at Mangia Bistro. This restaurant has a very experienced chef in the kitchen named Artur who owns this restaurant. His specialty is recommending a bottle of wine from his selection or suggesting a selection from his menu. Look at the choices, you might need his help! We ate Italian standards which might be boring to some, but this was delicious for us. If you like to order something new I'm sure it is available.The Mangia house salad and fresh bread begin your dinner and the taste is so fresh. Attention to detail with a house salad is uncommon these days. The lasagna and spaghetti with meatballs was hot and fully devoured. I took photos to show you the quality and what you can expect. Hopefully you will meet the chef/owner when you come.If that is not enough he makes fresh cakes for dessert! I think I will come for wine and cake some evening as well.Cheers! I think you will like Mangia Bistro and come back again as well.

Really authentic Italian food! So fresh and delicious! They seem a little understaffed, but the staff on a Saturday night handled it well! I love the non-Americanized version of food, but would be easier to drag my parents if they had a seemingly-traditional spaghetti and meat sauce. Thought I saw it on the menu online, but server didn’t know about it so guess not!Stuffed mushrooms were so good, but the sauce has a lemony taste, which was delicious to me, but my friend didn’t love it, so just wanted to call that out. Everything else was pure YUM!

We visited the weekend before Valentine's Day. We easily made reservations online, we were seated right away, and the food was fresh and delicious. It was also well presented. They were able to customize our food, like taking out squash or other ingredients we didn't want. The staff were all friendly and helpful, and I'm so happy to have this restaurant back. I missed the delicious dishes from Paesano's.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I cook a lot of italian from scratch and I can tell this place puts in a lot of effort to authenticity. The owner is so sweet and is very involved. Everyone needs to try this place. We had the alfredo, carbonara, linguine with mussels, and tiramisu. Bread is freshly made. Great wine selection as well.

Overall a good experience, but had to ask for the side salads couple of times. Servers were friendly, food was pretty good with big portions.Kid-friendliness: Menu was good enough for kids. Food was mild.

My family and I enjoyed our dinner at Mangia Bistro immensely. The charcuterie was full of a delicious assortment of meats, cheeses, olives, dates, and nuts. The pizzas were among the best I've ever had - sausage and fennel was like one I had in Rome. Also had perfectly spiced arrabiata pasta, chicken piccata, and generous sized salads. Two downsides to our visit, though. One of our guests received the wrong pizza, and unfortunately he had to wait quite a while to get a new pizza. It would have been nice if the manager at least came over to apologize for the error and the wait. And there were no cannoli available for dessert, which we were really looking forward to. We would definitely return if we lived closer.

I can't believe we have never been here before, this place was wonderful! It is hard to find though, Set back off the 75 access road, you might just drive right by it. Map it, you'll be glad you did. My wife and I had lunch there today.....she had the scallops and risotto, I had the braised beef and penne. Both were delicious!! We topped that off with a few cocktails and the home made cheese cake. Again, Delicious!! We are already looking forward to going back to try other menu items.

This place has the best bread with the best olive oil dip. I just couldn't go back to my hotel room without getting a hot Italian meal ?
