| - Delicious and fresh!
I can't tell you how nice it is to go to a place that serves real food, and serves it well. The place was crowded, so my group was seated outside, where we froze our butts off in pre-storm gusts. I didn't mind 'cause the food was so delish!
First we got a large plate of nachos, which looked and tasted fabulously fresh. They are definitely worth getting, and will comfortably serve four. We also got the "fries", which you'll be down with if you already like fried plantains/bananas. They're served with salsa, which is weird, but somehow works. Margaritas were another great choice that night; they were sweet without being syrupy (if they're made with fresh fruit, that'd explain it), and also dangerously strong for the ease with which you can drink them! You've gotta pace yourself so you don't kill your taste buds before your main course arrives...
My main course was a shrimp salad burrito. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it was definitely just a shrimp salad (main ingredients: shrimp, lettuce, onion, cucumber), and I was a little disappointed because I had been hoping for something more savory. Still, it was pleasant, although not psychologically satisfying. I hope to go back and try something heavier. My boyfriend's quesadilla tasted very good, for example, although the meat was a little fatty.
Overall, the visit was very satisfying, and I look forward to going back. If Johnny Mango's quality is variable, I definitely hit it on a good night!
