The food was not so bad and I enjoyed the portions. It was definitely worth it and great choice for days you want to try new things. The ambiance was face paced but I overall liked the energy of things. The service was very quick and great. The people were real kind and very work paced. I definitely enjoyed talking to a girl managing the cash register, I recall her name being Evelyn. She was kind and easy to talk to as she looked to be my age or close. Definitely recommend me some menu ideas as I asked her for since it was my first time eating there and I felt comfortable to ask. Extremely helpful and I enjoyed her vibe. Took her advice and was definitely satisfied. Might return when craving seafood. Service was on point. read more

I've been coming here since 2007 and even went to the location that they had in West Dallas. It's always the same great food, the same amazing staff and service and I just wish that I could eat there once a week if not almost every day. My go to items are the ceviche to status as well as the shrimp sea cocktails but everything on the menu if you like seafood and fish is just about as amazing as it can be I love to sit at when I call the counter and the bartender is standing right there. Michelas are the drink of the day usually and they're amazing. read more

Took the family here looking for good seafood with other options on the menu. It seemed like a great option but after we were seated outside for 30 minutes, no water, no waiter. We asked two staff members about having a waiter. The first barely acknowledged us and by the time we asked the second one our patience was shot. We waited another 5-10 minutes after he told us he would send someone over and made the decision to leave when nobody showed up. I can't comment on the food because unfortunately we never got to order. The place was busy and seemed like a cool place but the service was horrendous. read more

Went in to pick up my to go order.. was not greeted at all by staff lady who was standing behind counter facing me. She never looked at me. Never said anything.. walked off. Someone eventually did help though. That was rude and unprofessional of her. read more

Vida cocktail was very good but small. 14.99 for a cup size portion. Combo Ceviche was so bitter! I could only finish half of it. It was also really tuff. I wonder if it was prepared the day before and refrigerated. I usually have a good experience here. read more

I love Mambo seafood, I have been to this locations several times over the years and it is - always consistent in quality of food & oysters - always consistent with customer service - always a good experience What I order : - Mambo Special fried rice - michelada regular - oysters - Vuelve a la vida soup This combination is the best I know it may sound weird but it is so good and always hits the spot when I am craving oysters! I recommend ordering these items if you haven't tried them out yet! I love sitting in the patio when sun is setting. The inside is very spacious especially for hot summer time and humidity in Houston. read more

Great food and fast service! Glad it is close to our house!! Very convenient for family orders or a quick meal to take home!

The epitome of mediocre. The setting is very plain, kind of reminds me of a school cafeteria. The service was good. Had dinner here tonight with my daughter. We had: Dozen raw gulf oysters - seemed fresh enough, comes with a side of ketchup (if it was meant to be cocktail, I tasted no horseradish). Shrimp Tacos - my daughter liked them, said she would give it 3.5/5. I did not try them. Mambo Vuelve a LA Vida - 2/5. Shrimp, squid and octopus sauteed in ranchero sauce. I was not a fan. Sauce was way too sweet, the dish was not very appetizing looking. Looked very low end. For the sides, I ordered the shrimp fried rice and fries. Both of these were delicious and my favorite foods of the night. Place was pretty busy. I don't get it... read more

Excellent service la lo recomiendo las micheladas la comida para Togo mi experience fue de lo mejor gracias

We love the family combo. Usually take it to go and it feeds our family of four and have left overs. My kids love the fried shrimp and fish.

Wow, what a great experience! We found parking very easily and our party of 6 was seated immediately. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Other waitstaff also checked in on us too. We ordered the fried shrimp plate, shrimp tacos, and mambo combo. We ate our hearts out and especially loved the shrimp fried rice! Great place to have a casual, delicious Friday night dinner with family. We'll be back! read more

Ordered the snapper via UberEats from this location. I took a few bites and as I dig in noticed the entire fish was black on the inside. Immediately I vomited everything I had eaten. Contacted UberEats and was only a refunded a portion of my order. Contacted the restaurant and they did not assist. I had to throw out everything that I ordered because who in their right mind would continue to eat from a place ghat clearly is too lazy to conduct QA on the foods being served. This is disgusting. Quite puzzle as to how this occurred but I do know that they just lost a customer. read more

We've eaten here several times and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. The coconut shrimp appetizer and grilled fish tacos is my go to order. I usually get a topo chico chelada that I definitely recommend. Last visit, I tried the pepinada margarita and it was amazing. Not overly sweet and tastes fresh. The tamarindo stick and cucumber and jicama with chamoy was a fun surprise and of course were all fresh and delicious. Staff is always great and I've never noticed it being too loud even when packed. I love this place! read more

I usually visit the location by Greenspoint and have never had an issue. Last week we were in the area and invited an out of town friend to this location. I ordered my usual with rice. The rice didn't taste the same and I thought maybe because it's a different location. I barely ate any but my friend ate all of his. He poured his vuelve la vida over the rice and said it was better. Well my friend had violent vomit all night. I honestly think the rice had been frozen got to room temp and refrozen then recooked. I hate to admit but I will never be back to any location again. I have been going to greenspoint for over 20 years!! I WILL never be able to come back. read more

I like to come here because the food comes out fast, and food always taste good, I like the music they play, and service was ok read more

Have been going to this Mambo's location since the day it opened. Being a regular, the Waitstaff (Viceli) remembers what and how we prefer things which makes our visits even more pleasurable. The seafood is always hot and fresh and the menu is varied so nothing gets repetitive or old. The salmon is the best and best priced that I have had when compared to many different Houston restaurant locations. This restaurant is absolutely a keeper. read more

This was my first visit to Mambo Seafood. They had a few tables remaining on a Saturday night. I was surprised to see the freezers fill of fresh fish on display. The long takeout line is definitely a good sign. Our waitress was friendly and quickly placed crackers on the table while we waited for the order. The shrimp and fish wasn't as crispy as I would have liked but the fries were okay. The glass of soda was so large that I couldn't finish it . The new manager was engaging and kind. It's a beautiful thing when all people can share a pleasant evening over a meal Thanks for the experience read more

Food was very cold, and missing couple of items. I personally called in my Togo order so it would be ready, I had to wait 33 minutes to get my food. read more

Being a Houstonian for years and always noticed Mambo around figured give it a try. Oh boy where do I start, first off it was a total waste of money and not good. We were the first ones there on Saturday and when we walked in they were still doing employe meeting for the day, so we figure we get our food first. NO, mistaken, everyone else who walked in 15 mins after us was getting food while we just sit there hungry. Not just one tables 3 tables and I see to go order coming out and ready to go, while we just sat there waiting. Finally I ask the her to check on our food, 15 mins later she brought it out. Fried rice was cold and every other fried dishes were cold as well, so it must have just sat there on the counter for the last 20 minutes. The rice was super dry, fried dishes were bland an soggy, and greasy. I have no idea why this place was packed? If I was the only person at my table didn't like the food, then maybe you can say im a picky eater, but everyone in my family of four didn't think the food was even average, below average at best. Will not come back, please please if you want better fry mexican seafood, just go to Captain Tom. Food was below average at best and service was subpar. read more

They have a few locations but I have only been to one of them. The seafood is fresh and is always good. The place is not fancy, but the service is good and fast. I like the variety they have the prices are very reasonable. The calamari was fresh and the gumbo was very good. I enjoy eating here when I want reasonably priced, yet great seafood read more

I am totally upset! Came tonight to order a large seafood gumbo and they are no longer serving it. Will have to find another place to eat seafood. read more

I recommend this restaurant, they provide amazing service and are very fast. The food was delicious.

This place become my new sanctuary since I moved to this area across I-10. The food is consistently good, great micheladas, quick service eventho staff speak Spanish only a few of them speak English. I always have a table no matter how busy they are. Nice outdoor tables. I strongly recommend the octopus scampi and the grilled corn. They use fresh corn instead of frozen. I also love the whole fish and oysters here. read more

Amazing ambience, service and even better food Love to take my kids and wife there often.

I have loved mambos since I was 7 and this has always been my go to. This location is the wack one tho, and the food never tastes as good as other places. The shrimp and fish were good but the fried rice was very bland. They need to be more consistent with their quality because I swear each time i've gone to this location it's tasted different. read more

Usually go at least once when I'm working out in Houston and it's usually pretty damn good.. only reason why I have this one a 4 star is because the rice taste like Chinese rice.. idk what it is about Houston, but I literally went to 4 places and all the rice taste like Chinese food rice. Overall place was cool, service was good, definitely a place to go after work for some brews. Don't forget to take a michelada mix bottle home. read more

Shout out to Marco. Great customer service. I will definitely come back to this location just because of how everyone treats you here

Not the best seafood place, but it's pretty decent. Looking at the menu, getting ready to head here with some friends, I couldn't help but compare it to Connie's on Airline. The menu items and prices are very similar. While inside, the environment is much like Connie's. Simple, colorful and plenty of seating. I was good, so I stayed away from the fried section. I ordered sauteed shrimp and it came with 2 sides. I chose their fried rice and salad. My meal was pretty good! The fried rice mixed with the sauce from the shrimp was very tasty. My friend ordered the fried shrimp platter, so I tried a piece. I'm glad I didn't order it, it tasted very bland. This is a decent place for the money. Can't complain about that! read more
