Not your stuffy over priced seafood place, it's just a traditional Mexican fish house with great tasting seafood. The gumbo is the best in town. This place reminds me of my trips to Baja. Fantastic👍

I yet have to find a place that has great shrimp cocktails like Mambo's. They don't hold back on the shrimp like other restaurants do. They add fresh avocado slices and the sauce is really good!

If you're hungry, order the Shrimp Cocktail! It's fresh & tangy when you squeeze lime juice. The service is a little slow; this will satisfy you until your entree arrives.

Delicious cheap fast eats. Crazy busy on Fridays for lunch! Patio is very popular on nice days.

The food and the drinks are great. The service is slow, painfully at times. Just be patient, order an appetizer, and time will fly by.

I like the fish but my favorite thing is probably the Mambo Rice

Best fried rice in town. The portions are large so split them and enjoy.

The grilled shrimp is the best.

When a waitress spills a plate of food on you don't expect an apology. (Didn't happen to me watched it happen)

First timer here. Food was pretty good but the service (at least tonight) was pretty terrible. I'd give it another shot though.

i fell for the snapper special they offered. it was barely subpar at best. portion was tiny. dont fall for it. better off just ordering off the menu. i like most of their other items.

El whole red snapper (pargo como se le conoce en Venezuela) es lo mejor en Houston.

Muy rica comida pero muy frío el lugar, trae tu abrigo para comer.

En el servicio para llevar literalmente te dan un cuarto de limón.
