| - My friends and I walked over here after leaving Bar + Bistro (walked out due to poor service, something I've NEVER done before.)
We were immediately seated outside, in the shade as we requested, while one of the servers made sure to clean our table (it was a bit breezy outside and some leaves were falling off of the trees on to the tables.)
Our server, Eddie, was very friendly but I could tell that he had some "stress energy" surrounding him...sure enough, later in conversation, he said that it was his first time serving Sungay Brunch (that's not a typo, by the way) and it was very busy. In spite of that, he remained composed and professional with our group, one of whom had to order immediately as she is very pregnant, hormonal and one HUNGRY woman! :)
While I'm not a fan of brussels spouts, they seemed to come with every order and they were very, very tasty...tossed in delicious olive oil (??not sure) and topped with almonds.
Two of my friends enjoyed the menu so much that they placed orders to go.
At the table next to us, the diners greeted us with smiles and then said goodbye to us upon leaving. This left a fuzzy warm feeling in my heart and revealed that customers of Mingo's are happy people!
I decided to leave my "doggy bag" at the table as I had to run some errands and didn't want to eat cold, unhealthy food hours later and one of the servers ran out after us in the parking lot with the food. She didn't have to go out of her way like that...very much appreciated!
Enjoy this gem!
