El Mango Manila — Restaurant in San Diego

This place is consistently mid and every time I’ve given them a chance they’ve let me down pretty substantially. There’s a plethora of spots just like this one that share the Mexican Frutería niche but will attend you better and with less of a hassle. The prices are expensive and the service is mediocre.

I’ve consistently waited awkwardly in line for minutes on end despite the fact that there is 3 employees in the back doing a whole lot of nothing and their penny pinching has just bugged me out because they still have the nerve to overcharge items and upcharge card processing fees all while screwing the consumer. Their business model isn’t good and I try not to judge on first impressions but they’ve let me down on multiple different ocassions. This time, we went for some tostilocos after we had a sudden craving for them after eating at Tacos el Güero next door (Check their adobada 99¢ tacos!!) and were let down by their lackluster flavor as well as the lacking chacachacas. We paid 8 dollars, 160 god forsaken pesos for some wack tostilocos that weren’t worth the time or money we spent on them.

Not only that, but I went back to ask if they had chacachacas and the girl had the audacity to say they did but if I wanted some she’d have to charge me extra🤣🤣. Stingy ahhh ho keep your chacachacas, matter fact keep everything cause I’m never back to this place again. The food isn’t particularly bad but the vibes and energy is off. I wish I could like this place but the employees and the policies just suck and it’s the kind of small business that you really can’t support. It’s not being ran properly and the business model just isn’t up to par with other nearby options that execute it significantly better so goodbye Mango Manila, it’s been a displeasure. NOT Daygo Eats...

I’ve been going here for the past 5+ years! Great place to grab a snack or lunch while you are washing laundry next door. Crepas (Crepes) are delicious and huge. (well huge for me, pretty good quantity) Mangoneadas are already frozen in a cup ready to go. Smoothies are delicious. (Especially the Strawberry) They have all kinds of fruit, corn in cup, tostilocos...etc. so many things to...

This place is just here to take your money and have zero consideration on making anything appetizing. I ordered a raspado and the ice they use is big. I am only able to drink the syrup because the ice is so big. See in the picture I posted with this. At $5 a small this is ridiculous. And the seating chairs they have dig into your thigh. This place is garbage and please avoid and...
