mangala restaurant & bar

this is average place , which is running from very long time . the food quality is not that great and service is really very slow and it is sort for expensive . i wouldn’t recommend this .

this was an amazing joint we visited on our trip to mangalore. it is a must visit, especially for meat lovers. i'm an eggetarian and so ordered for their special egg masala and ghee rice. they were both wow! simply delectable and yumm. easily the best egg masala i've had. i was so sold on the place, we went there on two consecutive evenings for our dinner. :-) service was also above par.

always love coming to this place . good ambience , good place for friends as well as family 😊 amazing food , which just feels like home food. this place is a must try :) specially burgers , thali , kheema biryanis , pork & beef items . this place will never disappoint you

so we ended up in this restaurant while searching pork n beef.. and left with no regrets.
roasted beef and pork dish are best in here..
ice tea was good..
do try.. not so overrated
ambience are awesome. 😄

it's 1st time for me ...becan wrapped sausage ....mutton biriyani ...chiken cheesy freddie just amazing taste.....very fast service ....nice ambience too...want to visit again 😋😋😋😋....

this place has by far the worst service among the restaurants in mangalore. the waiter was rude and careless. didn't get the actual ordered food and the he was unapologetic. moreover the wrong order took ages to reach our table. the taste wasn't great either.

this place is an absolute stunner! don't be deceived by the looks of this place from the exterior. the food here is absolutely lip smacking and you get the best pork in town here for sure. they have a line of burgers aswell which is surprisingly delicious. this place is economical.

cheers

the place is quite peaceful and the service is amazing... love the food.. especially the kheema, the pork kheema to be specific is the best ...

revamped interiors, peaceful ambience, quick service and polite staff.

our order being

chicken sausage salad
pork chops: yumm, a must try.
cheesy beef kheema:
bacon wrapped sausages: soft and moist
chicken ghee roast biryani: beautifully cooked.
virgin mojito

all the dishes ordered were good and well presented.

one of those legendary outlets in mangalore, this is not a place any carnivore should miss. the menu has everything a meat eater could ask for, literally being spoiled for choices.

we ordered the special kheema biriyani, bbq meat roast, loaded fries and their signature phat freddie burger. none of the dishes were short of delicious. the biriyani is a must, with the delicious kheema sauce oozing over the succulent chicken pieces and the egg. the phat freddie is usually good with beef and delicious strips of bacon, every bit of the meat and cheese melts in your mouth. the bbq meat roast was succulent and thin, well coated in bbq sauce. but the quantity was a bit disappointing. there are so many dishes to be tried from the menu, multiple visits here would not be enough to exhaust the menu.

the have a bar with restaurant section and a much more fancier pub next door. the alcohol in the restaurant is decently priced and the ambiance is just enough to chill with good food and drinks.

mangala is one of the few restaurants in mangalore that has maintained standards over the years.

mangala has always been close to our hearts as we have many memories linked with this place... be it hanging out with our friends over the weekend right from college days, celebrating birthdays, dinner with family or going out on our first date together...

over the years, even though the prices have increased and the quantity reduced, what remained constant is the quality of food and the hospitality received at mangala. all the waiters who have been with the restaurant, for a long time, are very friendly. the ambience is good and the service is decent even if the restaurant is packed with customers.

now coming to the food... mangala is well known for its mangalorean delicacies and of course the great freddy burger.

there are a couple of new entries on their menu which we would like to recommend... (with a mug of beer!)

1. loaded fries - french fries loaded with minced pork (also available with minced chicken) and cheese... the perfect carby comfort food... :)

2. chicken sausage salad - fried chicken sausage tossed with onions and tomatoes. this is served with a generous amount of mayo as topping.

3. spicy kheema with cheese - you can always order the dish with chicken kheema. but we prefer pork kheema which is a lot more tasty! spicy kheema with cheese can be eaten plain. we prefer eating it with chicken sausage fried rice - it's a mind blowing combination!


4. loaded nachos - crispy nachos topped with mince and cheese.

mangala restaurant is one of the oldest restaurants in town that has still retained its charm, flavour and thereby, customers. it has been serving great food since 1981 if i'm not mistaken.

i visited this place on a sunday with family. we went around 9 pm and the place was not too crowded. the service is excellent. the staff is courteous and knowledgeable about the food. we tried their coorg style pork as a starter. (weekend special)this was a well cooked dish. the pork was soft and the masala was delicious -perfectly seasoned, not too peppery or garlicky. for main course we tried their chicken in green masala with chapatis. while the curry was lovely, the chicken itself was a little on the bland side. it seemed like they cook the chicken and curry separately. this would have been fine if only they had added some spice to the chicken when cooking. we also tried the phat freddie (chicken) and this was the highlight for me. juicy chicken patty with melted cheese, freshly made mayo, caramelised onions, pickled jalapeños and crispy bacon. it is a loaded burger and i made a complete mess when eating it (this is the sign of a good burger in my opinion). it is absolutely worth all the hype and totally made up for the bland chicken in the curry.

the food is finger licking good.
its an awesome place for a weekend party
the restaurant was clean and hygienic and the staff was very polite.
chicken sausage salad is a must try

very good food. i ordered their chicken green curry and chicken sukka and both dishes were well prepared. they rate well on quality and quantity.

a great place for non vegeterian foodies! ive tried pork chilly, chicken, squid as well beef varieties! and the food is worth every penny you pay! plus i had the mangala special freddie chicken burger classic.. and it might not be as good as your kfc, mcd, burger king burgers but will sure be worth the price and bigger than the other places i mentioned.
you can totally take your family along and have a great time trying it out!
ambience great
service great

i'd totally give a 5, if i had a review on the booze!
