First of all the sisters who run it are wonderful and make you feel like you are at their home. The food is as good as any that I have eaten in Italy. I had the special which was cheese tortellini in a rich cheese sauce. I added a large meatball to cut the richness of the pasta. The balance of flavors were spot on. My wife had the lasagna. It was excellent. As a salad she had the baked caprese salad and it could have stood as a main dish. Great flavors. Skip the Caesar salad. The dressing was not the typical Caesar dressing. Not sure what it was. We finished with a lemon cake that was light and delicious. The wine list offered good options. We will return every time we are at St George Island. read more

Food was real Italian food. The sauce is authentic Service was very good. Good people with a heart to help the working poor of the area by closing on Mondays & delivering food to others. That's enough for me to support Mangia read more

This was my first time sitting down to eat here and I was quite disappointed. I ordered a glass of white wine, and instead of telling me that that wine wasn't cold yet the waitress poured a room temperature glass, gave it to me, and asked if I wanted ice. I then received the Cesar salad I ordered for my meal, and the lettuce was drenched in dressing too salty to eat. Fortunately, the shrimp were very good, so I didn't go hungry. The worst part wasn't the mistakes, but when I told the owner that the Cesar dressing was too salty to eat, she told me something to the effect of 'yeah, Cesar salads are salty' taking no responsibility and showing no interest in getting to the bottom of the issue. I am very particular. I cook everyday. I paid hard earned money to be disappointed and invalidated. If it's going to be like this every time, I don't want to go back. read more

Great food as always and efficient service. Always friendly folks as well. Really enjoy their sandwiches and gyro.

Pretty good Italian. Very nice people. Meatballs are huge but just OK. Marinara sauce is excellent.

I do not recommend Mangias for a special event like New Year's Eve. They split the food in half for the first hour and a half of the night and the second hour and a half. We had reservations for 6:15 and were told they were out of just about everything we wanted. But people that came in 15 mins after us had all those things we wanted. We were very upset and didn't think that was a great way to treat their guests that came first. We did complain and had a long talk with the owner. She gave us a discount on the food. But we still didn't get what we wanted in the first place. I think they should tell people when they make reservations not to make them at the end on the first half cuz you won't get anything. Not fair for us! The food we did end up getting was very good. But my husband ended up only getting a salad. read more

Our family had a great experience at Mangia! The food was delicious and it was a nice change of pace having Italian food. The food is a bit pricey in my opinion however, I would still go back. Decor could be refreshed a bit but overall I highly recommend Mangia! read more

A hidden gem just over the bridge from SGI. Wasn't expecting much with the simple decor but we were pleasantly surprised. Staff super friendly. Menu limited compared to other Italian restaurants but everything was amazing. I encourage you to consider their specials which change daily. Our entrees included the Special Pasta Bolognese, Tortellini Marinara, Stuffed Shells, Linguini in Aurora Sauce with Grilled Chicken. The Bread and Salads were delightful. Very nice wine list as well. We will return. read more

Had lunch here on a busy Thursday. Restaurant is clean and warm inside. Our waitress/hostess was very busy but we were seated quickly. She was attentive and kind. The menu is varied and interestingly fun. We ordered a muffuletta sandwich and a house salad to share. The salad had walnuts in it that were hard and one got stuck in my tooth. The sandwich came later and was warm and greasy with the meats. We could have used a little more of the famous olive mixture. We enjoyed our meal and will come back to try something else. read more

Very good food, nice atmosphere and great customer service. I would recommend giving this place a try. read more

The bolognese was outstanding--easily one of the best I've ever had. You could tell it had been slow-cooked with care. The sauce was rich and flavorful, perfectly balanced, and paired beautifully with the fresh pasta. Every bite was memorable. The service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was warm and comfortable without feeling too formal. Everything we ordered was solid, but the bolognese really stood out. I'd come back for that dish alone. read more

The food is delicious. The people and owner are friendly and polite. We enjoyed our meal very much. read more

Everything was great. Tried the special and it exceeded my expectations!! Service was incredible and the Chef even came out to see how we liked it! Ambiance was ok for Florida!' read more

Food a 10+. Wow. As good as it gets, seriously. The spinach & artichoke dip went so fast I almost didn't get a picture. My lasagna had beef and pork and excellent marinara sauce. The angel hair pasta with aurora sauce was fantastic. A spicy taste that came after you had swallowed! Wow. A 10 for sure and a must stop when in the area. read more

Food and atmosphere were great as a lunch spot. I think it's more like a 5star cafe than a 5 star fine dining restaurant. Sandwiches and soup are excellent. It's clean a friendly. read more

We try to go to the Florida Panhandle every year in our rv. This year we met friends at an rv park and decided to try this little gem. There were 6 of us. Everyone ordered something different, and everyone was very happy with their food. We love Italian and Mangia knows how to make it. The owner checked on us to make sure everything was to our liking. Love this place and will definitely go back when we return. We always go to this area for the seafood, it was such a nice change to have a new restaurant that wasn't just seafood! read more

Had a nice lunch at mangia. Such nice people and good food. It was a little salty- the marinara - but overall the veggies and tortellini were great. Of course being surrounded by florida panhandle is part of its amazingness read more

The only Italian restaurant on the Forgotten Coast and it's worth the trip. Service was good. Everyone was attentive to our needs. It's not fancy or quiet, but the food is good. The chicken parm was a large breast with a tasty and crispy coating. Lasagna had several layers of cheese and pasta with a load of melted mozzarella and beef sauce on top. The pasta was not mushy at all which happens all too often with lasagna. It took no time for the food to arrive either. Be aware that many of the menus online are wrong. There is a limited selection of entrees. The crowd starts coming in about 6pm so might have to wait for a table if you get there after that. read more

Nice dinner, great salad, bread. Really enjoyed my chicken parmesan and pasta dish. My husband got lasagna, which he really liked, but it was a little too rich for me. We came because we wanted to get eggplant parmigiana, but they don't make that anymore, instead they're doing fried green tomato parmigiana. Hoping someday they bring back the eggplant parmigiana. Service was quite good, and the music was a nice surprise. Nice to dine where they havetablecloths. read more

Outstanding Italian on the coast! Very authentic taste and presentation. Place is cozy so get early or reservations but not sure they take?? We loved so much we did take out. Locally owned. So please support. read more

Great food! Loved the personal service. Owners came over and checked on our party several times. My lasagna was very good. Pesto cream sauce, excellent. Desserts are a must! read more

NOT good service or good Alfredo. I got the crappy build your own pasta and stale Chardonnay.... I was VERY sad that this place was a waste of our time. I asked for Parmesan and it made the Alfredo better. I added $8 for shrimp and $6 for CRAPPY FROZEN WATERY VEGGIES. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Again, $100 for less than par food/ atmosphere/drink read more

This is such a special little place! As soon as you walk in I get a positive and lovely vibe. The people here are super nice, and treat you very well. Live music plays too, which is a plus. For such a small forgotten town, this is a diamond in the rough. Food was great too. You can tell everything is made with love and care. read more

I came here to satisfy my sweet tooth, and this place did not disappoint. The manager was very nice and she made me fresh Cannolis to-go for 4$. The Cannolis were excellent!

I had lunch today at Mangia, it was the best. My favorite is Beef Ravioli, smothered in the best Alfredo sauce. Normally never order dessert, bust asked for Brownir to go. This evening I tasted the 'Best' Brownie I've ever eaten Great food, atmosphere, and service Give this great family business a try. You won't be disappointed read more

Stopped by for lunch not knowing anything about the area and had their French Dip and it was as good as they get. Potato salad was vey good also. Clean dining area and good service. read more

If you enjoy seriously Italian, this is your place. Four of us enjoyed lunch including the caprese salad, tortellini, pasta with Italian meatball, Italian Grinder, and their special Panini with corned beef and pastrami. Everything was prepared tastefully. The owner stopped by our table to greet us and talk deserts. We shared one and took home one. We highly recommend Mangia for food lovers. They have an extensive wine list and there is no rush like you get when eating at a chain. Take your time and partake in good conversation over a fine meal. read more

Great location. Great service and atmosphere . Food was mediocre. Saw positive reviews so decided to try. Thought It nice to have another option besides seafood or BBQ. read more

Great food! Enjoyed it. Much needed for St George area. Will go back next time in town.

A fantastic small family owned authentic Italian restaurant. I forgot to take pictures, will add some next time I stop by. The bread was outstanding, exactly like the bread I have had when traveling through Italy. A must stop if you are in town. read more

This place is amazing!! We visit this area every year, and this is a new favorite!! We ordered the spinach artichoke dip as an appetizer and it was so good. The kids ordered beef ravioli, one with marinara and the other with Alfredo. All three loved their food. My husband got chicken parmigiana and I got the eggplant parmigiana, so delicious! The tiramisu was divine. If you are visiting the forgotten coast area, this hidden gem is a must! read more

People need to be made aware that this is not the same restaurant. Management has changed hands. The previous owner and chief Italian is no longer there. There are no Italians in the kitchen. The current management has food truck experience only and it was not a creative food truck! Current management is touting that nothing has changed but everything has. read more

Now just' Mangia' with new owner and management but the tradition of fine italian food goes on! Have had both lunch and dinner and the food and service is very good. Also has an excellent wine list. read more

Dinner here was great and the staff was incredibly nice. Will definitely be back next time we visit!

What a great little gem! We had an amazing dinner and the staff was superb. If you're looking for a change from the seafood, this is the place to go! We had the lasagna, eggplant, stuffed shells and spaghetti and meatballs. All excellent! With great prices and a solid wine list - this is a must visit! The views of the water are an added bonus. read more
