Playa Mangos kayaks & restaurant — Restaurant in Altagracia (Municipio)

Good views of the volcano; however the customer service was below standard.

I was attended by waiter Manuel. I ordered a couple of beers and a ceviche. He asked his colleague if the ceviche was available. The colleague said "Yes." So i went ahead with the orders; and summarized them while Manuel was still in-front of me.

After 30 minutes, i followed up the ceviche; but Manuel said he did not put the order in. Bad service.

I said no to the ceviche this time; and proceeded to order the chicken wings instead. But Manuel was not even able to write this order, because he kept on talking to his other colleague.

We did have some lovely girl offer to take our pic. The service for us was very slow, the worst we’d had in Nicaragua to date. Food took 45 mins! Be prepared and order early.. even though we thought we did. I don’t think all the waiters are lax or disinterested in their customers so might be we hit unlucky but it was my husbands birthday too which disappointed me. Overall be prepared to be swamped for sunset, but it was still a...
