Mambo Matachica Resort

This was the last night of our trip and we wanted to return to Mambo as it was our best food during the week. It wasn't disappointing and it was fantastic again.

Don’t know. I was unaware that it was an adults only resort so when we presented with our 9 year old daughter I was turned away. Would have appreciated a warning and would have made other arrangements. Was to have been the dinner our last nite and the. Had to scramble. Very disappointed

Great food we had the Simply Snaper and summer rolls excellent

I was given a menu with some gross gooey stuff on the opening page. Asked for another menu only to find bits of food on the dessert page. I didn't ask for another. It wasn't busy at all. There were only two other tables of guests that night. Yet, service was sketchy. Took a long time between asking for something and actually getting it. Food was good, and we all agreed to have dessert. Waited a long time to ask our waiter for the dessert menu and again waited a long time before actually receiving the dessert menu. Then we waited such a long time for our waiter to take our dessert order, that we all decided to skip dessert and get the hell out of there. Our bill was presented with a mandatory 15% tip. I hate when restaurants do that. We usually tip between 25-30%. But if all you want is a 15% tip, we made that happen and not a penny more.

Our appetizers were great (asian roll and salad). They brought out some gluten-free toast which was excellent. The snapper was wrapped in banana leaves and covered in peppers. The sauce was really watery the snapper really didn’t need all that. The grilled tuna was overcooked and dry. I had asked three times for my water and hot tea to be refilled. They may just be very shortstaffed and it’s not the servers fault but when you’re paying that much money the entrée should’ve been better and the service should’ve been better
