Mango Thai Cuisine & Bar

My wife went into this restaurant hoping for an enjoyable time out with coworkers, but unfortunately, her experience was stressful and disheartening. She has severe celiac disease, which means that unless food preparation can be guaranteed to be completely free from cross-contamination, she cannot safely eat it. Out of caution, she brought my own meal, something she has had to do before at other establishments that are not able to ensure a truly gluten-free kitchen. When she explained this to the waitress, she was dismissive and outright rude. She told her they would “make an exception this time” but warned her not to bring her own food again. The way she said it made my wife feel like she was being scolded rather than accommodated. For someone with a medical condition—not a preference—this attitude was deeply upsetting. Food allergies and autoimmune conditions aren’t a choice, and restaurants should train their staff to respond with empathy and professionalism. Even if outside food isn’t typically allowed, there are ways to communicate this policy kindly and respectfully, without shaming or alienating customers who simply want to participate in a social outing safely. Sadly, this experience left her feeling unwelcome and uncomfortable. We cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone with dietary restrictions, as compassion and understanding were clearly lacking. Until their staff receive better training on how to handle these situations, we won’t be returning.

Really enjoyed the food! The portions are very large, we were absolutely stuffed afterwards. There are plenty of gluten free options here. The service was also fantastic. Waiters were extremely attentive and our food came very quickly.
