Mangia-mangia - Huntington Beach

I got a late lunch with my family today. The food is so good! I'm vegan and I could eat vegan family with my mother. I asked for bread without garlic and butter and ordered the Auberginen-Besorger. For my main meal I got the gnocchi napoletana without cheese and add asparagus. The server was very friendly to our orders and super friendly. The food tasted fresh and made with love. Very recommended to come here if you want authentic Italian cuisine. We met the new owner as well as he came up and asked how we do. What a friendly and helpful man! I love it when an owner is involved in the business, it shows that they really care about customer service and customer experience.

We have been coming to Mangia for over 20 years, it is always excellent,, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

They are open for indoor dining. The owners are from Sicily and recommends seafood and tomato based sauce since Sicily is an island. Came here to try the lasagna based a recommendation and it was delicious. The service was friendly and very accommodating. Highly recommend!

This place was delicious. I wasn't sure what to expect but it was excellent. My friend in Huntington know they'll have to take me here every time I visit going forward

1. **Fettuccine Gabriella (4/5)**: This dish was AMAZING! I love mushrooms in my pasta, and they were a perfect addition here. However, the dish was quite rich in cream, so it fills you up quickly! I recommend sharing it if you want to leave room for more food. 2. **Seafood Pasta (3/5)**: This dish looked appealing, but the seafood was a bit dry and seemed not very fresh. On the bright side, the sauce was delicious, so I would consider ordering it again! 3. **Lasagna (3/5)**: This dish had an abundance of cheese, which felt a bit excessive for my taste. While I do love lasagna, I prefer it without being overloaded with cheese, as it can be a bit overwhelming (not sure why, haha). **Service**: The service here was outstanding! The staff checked on us frequently and were always ready to bring anything extra we needed. Plus, they offer FREE GARLIC BREAD! That's definitely a bonus for my heart because who can resist bread?
