    I went to Mambo Seafood off 1960 I had a fried shrimp basket and a classic margarita. The food was really good my waitress was awesome! The restaurant was also nice and clean.

    Stopped by Mambas on 1960 for lunch and was pleasantly surprised! It's actually in the old TGI Friday's building, and they didn't do much remodeling -- so it still has that same classic Friday's layout and vibe. Since we went during lunch, it wasn't crowded at all. I signed up for their app and got half off the pork fried rice, which was absolutely amazing -- packed with flavor and you can make it spicy or not. We also tried the shrimp appetizer, which was delicious, and the bacon-wrapped shrimp, which was really good too (though I wish it came with that buttery sauce). She made me some but it was okay lol The service was great, friendly, and quick. Prices were very reasonable, and overall, I'll definitely be going back -- especially for that fried rice and shrimp!

    4 visits since they opened, all 4 were good experiences. They were quite busy a couple of times and the service wasn't instantaneous, but it wasn't bad. The portioms are generous and the fish has been perfectly cooked. The venue is clean and welcoming, a bit tightly packed and popular with families, so maybe not the best quiet romantic date spot, but terrific for fillin' up yo' hungries.

    Our server's name was Karina like my name! This location is closer to us but we've been fans of the Mambo's location on 45N in Greenspoint for many years! We ordered the empanadas with shrimp, cheese, and black beans. We also ordered the shrimp plate with the mambo's sauce. The veggies were not too great but the rice was good. It wasn't very loud there on Saturday. I also enjoyed a cucumber non alcoholic beverage.

    Somethings is different about this location from the others. Definitely didn't have the same feel and atmosphere. My drink, pepino, was very good. Food was good. Oysters were fresh. The micheladas were not so we sent them back. Our waitress was great and understood as the mix was different than the norm michelada rojas. She, Maggie, was a great server and there was a gentleman who checked on us frequently too. Might have been a manager.

    Came here for my birthday dinner with a large group and had a great meal. We have been to other Mambos location but were excited to try this one as we saw was now open. I got the lobster signature plate for my meal and shared a cocktail de camarones. The cocktail had lots of shrimp but is a little on the swet side for my taste so I added some Valentina and it was great. The lobster plate was suprisely good! I got it grilled with a side of z style butter and it was so good! Their rice and grilled veggies were delicous sides that complemented the lobster well. I would highly recommend getting the Buena noche drink, it is boozy and oh so good! The staff was so friendly and kind and the manager came to check on us since our food came out a bit staggered. Overall, I look forward to coming back agian.

    I stumbled into Bluewater Seafood after getting a mailer with two coupons: one for a $20 gift card…read moreoff, and another for 25% off the entire bill. Kind of a weird setup though, because the bartender told me I could only use the $20 gift card if I was paying with a gift card... which felt a bit off, but whatever. Overall, this place was just okay. I get the feeling the boils might be the star of the show here, so I'll probably come back to give those a try. I ordered the sampler with fried green tomatoes, boudin balls, and stuffed jalapeños. The flavors were there, but the boudin balls were a little too salty. For my main, I went with the etouffee and asked for both shrimp and crawfish. It was flavorful, with a solid dark roux that I liked. I sat at the bar, and Crystal was my server. She was super friendly but admitted it was her first time making the Bloody Orange Lemon Drop. I gave her a couple of pointers for the second round, and she nailed it - so props for that! In the end, the experience was just fine. Not bad, not amazing. I'll probably come back to try the boils, but for now, it's a solid 3 stars.

    "Seafood Hits the Spot, but Service Misses the Mark" 08-30-2025…read more I absolutely cannot believe I've passed by this place for many many years and never tried it out until now. I came here on a Saturday afternoon with my sisters and our fifteen-year-old godsister after doing a little school shopping for her at Willowbrook Mall. We had a fabulous time, and we all enjoyed our meals equally; the quality and taste were excellent. Our entrées were delivered fresh, piping hot, and full of flavor. No complaints there! The only disappointment was my appetizer order of fried calamari. It was definitely not the best I've had, honestly, not even close. The pieces were thick, overcooked, and rubbery, making them unpleasantly chewy. A total bummer and a waste of $13. Now, about the service: our server was attentive, but her style came across as pushy and unprofessional. She didn't communicate clearly, and instead of asking if we wanted refills, she simply pointed at our glasses back and forth as if we were supposed to guess what she meant. At one point, while wagging her finger at the drinks, a particle flew off her hand and nearly landed in one of the glasses of cokes. I was appalled! Additionally, to make matters worse, she brought wet wipes for my sisters but instead of leaving them on the table, she opened the packages herself and handed them out one by one, issuing them out as if they were children. My younger sister flat-out declined hers when she saw this happening. Honestly, why would anyone open customers' wet wipes for them when handling food and drinks? She seemed like someone who had just been hired and thrown straight into the job without training. Another complaint I have is that the server didn't clear our appetizer plates before bringing out the entrées. Now, mind you, the platters are served on large rectangular plates that take up a lot of space. When she tried to hand me my food, I asked if she could place it back on her serving cart and clear the table of the appetizer dishes and leftovers first, so my family and I would have more room and be more comfortable. To her credit, she did it right away without any attitude. Like I said, she was attentive, but her service skills came across as unprofessional. That said, the food more than made up for the service. It was hands-down delicious, and we will definitely be back, just not with the same server. If you love good Southern fried seafood, this spot has it on lock! I highly recommend them! Food Ratings: Fried Fisherman Platter - 5/5 (fish, shrimp, oysters, crawfish, hush puppies, and sweet potato fries; everything on this platter was perfect!) Fried Fish & Shrimp Platter (with fries) - 5/5 Fried Fish Platter (with fries) - 5/5 Cole Slaw - 2/5 (lacked flavor) Blue Crab & Shrimp Boil - 5/5 Crawfish & Queso Dip w/Chips - 3/5 (queso was delicious, but chips were cold and too hard) Fried Calamari - 1/5 (overcooked and rubbery: hard to enjoy, not the quality I expected) Mango Rita w/ Tajín - 5/5 (strong, delicious, and on point!) Ambiance: Nice and quiet with soft music and flatscreen TVs. Definitely family-oriented and great for groups. Side Note: I would have given this place 5 stars but the wait service did not permit me to do so; it was too bad. However, the rating can always change considering on what takes place on my next visit.

    The food is excellent, and the Halibut and Shrimp in the Cedar Boat is on my list of my favorites…read moreon the menu. It has a sweet honey ginger cream sauce that pairs well with the broccoli and sautéed coleslaw. The shrimp are huge and were cooked to perfection. The fish has a wonderful crabmeat stuffing on top as well that pairs nice with the perfectly cooked fish. Bella is a great server as well. She was very attentive and let me enjoy my 4 course meal. Rolita and David and the whole staff are amazing and create a positive welcoming atmosphere. The lighting is amazing while listening to smooth jazz. This has been my best restaurant experience yet. I will keep coming back, and I highly recommend this place. I will be back for more.The Chang's Seabass and the White Chocolate Bread Pudding are a must as well. The sushi is completely fresh and flavorful as well. I've never had a bad experience with it. White dragon roll, Ahi Tuna and Watermelon, and the 21pc Sashimi is great. Don't forget about the Dark Chocolate Pots De Crème as well. Overall it has been a wonderful few times back here at Redfish Seafood Grill. I moved back from St Petersburg, Florida and the seafood and sushi here is 10 times better than the food in Florida. Redfish knows how to impress.

    BEWARE. My family…read morevisited earlier this week, and my mother (71) and grandmother (89) both got violently ill after sharing a sushi roll here. What followed was days of severe vomiting and diarrhea -- genuinely alarming given their age and how quickly dehydration can become dangerous for older adults. Finding a decent/subpar sushi spot in Spring has always been tough, but this experience takes this restaurant off our list for good. The quality and safety of the fish is not something I'm willing to gamble on again. Proceed at your own risk -- especially if you're dining with older family members. 7/10 Update: Based on owner's response/questions: They were there 7/7 6:41pm. Originally it was just my mother and grandmother and now two other parties have fallen ill. Thankfully not as severely. They consumed the 21 piece Sashimi, chicken dumplings, shrimp tempura, salmon w/veg, Rolita Roll and the "Crunchy Roll" which they all shared and consumed.

We ordered: - Fried Calamari - Fried Seafood Platter | Fried flounder, deviled crab, baby shrimp, fried oysters, jumbo shrimp The fried calamari was actually very good. The batter was light, crispy, and perfectly salted. The fried seafood platter was very lackluster. Unlike the calamari, the batter was soggy.

Dressing was like water and in a plastic squeeze bottle. - hushpuppies were the best thing, but not in the shape of a ball, but a small dog turd. - on the seafood platter, the best thing were the fried oysters. - baked potato was not even good. Served in foil and plain. You are given one plastic tube of sour cream and some margarine in those tiny cups (like at Wendy's or other fast food). No crackers on table. Before tip, $63. Very sad. They will be closed by October at this rate.

    Authentic Dominican/Caribbean food in Willowbrook. Who knew?…read more I remember this place from a birthday party decades ago. The space was a bit bigger (they've since redesigned it smaller), but the crowds were smaller. Success hasn't tarnished their food. It was a very rainy and soggy afternoons and the place was packed. We managed a table and ordered. Can't go wrong with the delicious shrimp mofongo. I honestly think the sauce is the icing on that cake, made all the more delicious with a squeeze of lemon. Whew! Service was fast and dinner came out at a reasonable pace. The owner is so friendly and stopped by our table to make sure things were good. Better than good! If you're in the Willowbrook area do yourself a favor and stop in for lunch or dinner. Prices are a little steep, but what's isn't these days?

    Food is very good, they have lunch specials during the week including pernil, pollo guisado, etc…read morefor about $12-13. I ordered the pollo guisado and moro, both were good and we have a little left over. My partner ordered the pica pollo and the fried chicken was decent. The food does take some time, and servers did not check in too often so I would recommend ordering ahead of time (unless you have a long lunch break), There are plenty of tables, but it is a little dark inside, 2 bathrooms inside. The juice was on the sweet side so just watered it down (wish they have smoothies), but they get 5 stars overall for the flavor and the price point. Plenty of parking as it's in located along other stores.

My husband got the same but he got Spicy. For our 2nd round we decided to go for the citrus twist. I got extra spicy. Definitely different tasting than your regular crawfish places but its that unique flavor that kept us wanting more. I will say that the best way to go is to get the Spicy. Extra spicy is not bad if you don't mind a lil kick. Definitely coming back for more and maybe try some different items from the menu since this time we were on a mission to try the crawfish.
