Once upon a time, there was a mango tree in Vile Parle that inspired a restaurant of the same name (Mangi Ferra). One of the first in town to serve wood-fired pizzas (a must-have here; try any of the popular picks - Margarita, Quattro Formaggio, Mediterranean or Cajun Chicken). Mangi's tribe has been steadily increasing. Bandra saw the introduction of the above average Café Mangii fare which quickly expanded to Powai last year and this year, a brand new Versova location opens as this book goes to press, with Pune slated to open soon. Earthen tones and warm-wooden interiors gives this cafe a neighbourhood "been aound a long time" kind of feel. Home-style flavour in all of the popular soups, salads and pastas. Fun options too - like the newly introduced fondues, available in Jalapeno Cheese for mains and Chocolate for desserts. A veritable pasta party here with Spaghetti, Linguine, Penne and Fusilli all on the menu. Order their Risotto (cooked in Champagne and with Asparagus and Porcini Mushoom) and Chicken Mangii, the stuffed chicken breast. Crème Brûlée and Tiramisu offer a sweet ending.

Cafe Mangii is a pleasant suprise. The ambience is pleasing,cheerful and cozy and the srvice courteous and unobstrusive. The menu has a good range and it is easy to make out that flavours have been differentiated and authentic ingredients used.
The Prawn starter melts in the mouth and the jalapeno poppers are sinful but delightful. The Pizzas are light with tasteful toppings,Helpings are decent,and it is possible ,if one chooses sensibly,to enjoy a good meal without burning a hole in the pocket.Not cheap for sure,but quality for the money spent! Hope they can keep up the standard-would like to go back again.

I visited this place with my husband yesterday night. The ambiance is great with cozy furniture and lighting. Talking about the food, cheese fondue, spinach gnocchi and wood fired pizzas should certainly be tried.
