Mango Restaurant and Bar

As the Scottish winter exerts its icy grip, it’s tempting to let the imagination wander. How about a dash of Latin American warmth, colour, exuberance and flavour?

That’s the invitation extended by today Big Deal at Mango in Glasgow. It might be Sauchiehall Street outside, but Mango’s vibrant three level bar and restaurant resounds to the heady rhythms and tastes of Havana, Rio, and Buenos Aires.

Latin flavour

Available seven days from 5pm to 8pm, the Big Deal offers a choice of four tapas dishes to share between two people, with a 175ml glass of house red, rose or white wine each.

Mango’s restaurant offers a diverse menu of authentic Latin American and Cuban cuisine, with dishes prepared fresh every day from locally sourced produce.

Tapas dishes included in this deal include Colombian empanadas, traditional pie snacks served with Aji and lime wedges; pollo frito con mango, fried chicken strips with a mango salad; calamar frito, squid with a Marie Rose sauce; yuca frita, South American cassava, and exciting Mexican bean salads, chicken wings and chilli con carne.

Happy diners

Mango has picked up plenty of enthusiastic reviews, earning a rating of 4.1/5 from 5pm customers. Recent comments on the restaurant’s 5pm page include the following:

‘Relaxed atmosphere, Manu Chao playing while enjoying tasty, fresh, made to order tapas. Very good value for money.’

‘Great place to eat, drink and be merry. Lovely atmosphere, great staff and spotlessly clean.’

‘The staff were so friendly, the food was amazing. I would definitely go back.’

Mango Latino

If you want to sample Latin food and music in a great atmosphere, Mango is the perfect destination.

Today’s Big Deal tapas meal provides the ideal opportunity to put a touch of South American warmth into winter.

It would make a welcome Christmas gift, providing a tasty respite from a surfeit of turkey.
