| - I've been to Wild Mango several times. It's seems to be the go-to for my parents for a "fancy" restaurant.
This place is outside the mall, but when you walk in the decor is pretty fancy looking. Kind of an odd dynamic - but not a bad thing.
The food here is always pretty good. The service is "meh."
Whenever we come here, they always manage to sell us on the appetizer sampler which is delicious I have to admit. It comes with calamari, tuna tartar, potstickers, and shrimp. It's a pretty impressive little spread. It also costs just as much as one of the entrees, which is fine because there is a lot of food, but just a warning.
The last time I came here with the fam, I had the scallops dish. Came with mushrooms and a crab risotto. The crab risotto was the best part of the meal. So rich tasting and it was perfectly cooked. I also shared the strip steak with my husband. Huge portion, also cooked to perfection. The presentation of the dishes here is always impressive. Very pretty.
Another favorite is the chicken trio. It comes with this "chicken cheesecake" which is really delicious. If you haven't had that dish yet, you need to order it.
I'd pass on the duck here. It's not that its bad, but seems that I've had other things on their menu which I have enjoyed more.
As I said, the service is "meh". It can be a bit slow, not slow in the "i'm pacing your meal well" but slow as in you don't get a refill on the water for quite a while.
Overall though, I like this place. The food is good. Prices are decent (on the higher side but pretty standard for the type of food and the portions). And, it's in a really convenient location.
