I had the Mangos Special dosa, and I can only describe the taste as bland. It was about as boring and uninteresting, as food can get. Wasted a meal, and money.

After a fantastic biryani for lunch yesterday I made a mental note to return to Mango's. Who knew that, after only finding Western options on my hotel's breakfast menu, I'd be back so soon. This time it was hoppers and pineapple juice. Last time I was the only person in the place (a late, mid-week lunch during tourist low-season) and... More

Nice place for dinner in Jaffna. This is a Vegetarian Restaurant where you can find especially South Indian food. The Mangos Special Cheese Dosai is very nice to have. I would recommend this place.

The food wasn't up to the mark as experienced by me before. Food was a bit too oily, but we did enjoy all of it. I personally found it a bit of an anti climax, as opposed to the excitement to go there, especially after the last visit. Enjoyed the food though They are short of staff and service can... More
