I live 20 miles west of Orlando and my sister was flying down from Connecticut to stay with her son in South Florida. I looked on a map to find a good halfway point for both of us (90 minutes each way for both of us). I Googled restaurants in the Cocoa Beach area and found the Mango Tree.

What a great choice! The service was superb, the drinks were wonderful (try the mango daiquari) and the food was fabulous. There were 6 of us altogether and all of us have eaten in restaurants in all different parts of the world, and we all agreed that the Mango Tree was right up there in the top 10 we've ever dined at.

The prices were a little higher than one might expect in Florida, but still reasonable.

I highly recommend this restaurant. They aim to please!

Three of us went for dinner recently, and we had a great time! The restaurant is in a converted house. As you enter, there is a stately bar which proudly displays an impressive selection of single malt scotch, cognac, and exotic spirits. The wine list is also quite impressive, and the wine by the glass list has plenty to offer. The girls started with Mango Margheritas. We had an appetizer of lobster tail w/ water chestnuts wrapped in bacon served on a bed of the most delicious seafoos sauce.

I had the house salad, the girls had a portabello salad, and a hearts of palm salad. All were laced with tasty homemade dressings.

For our entrees, we had seared tuna w/ a wasabi cream, cobia w/ a lime caper sauce, and a beautiful veal chop w/ a red pepper coulis.

Service was friendly and efficient, and they serve to entrees covered w/ classic clouche covers. Once all the covered entrees are placed in front of everyone, another server helps to unveil the entrees all at the same time, which adds drama to the whole experience.

Desserts were creative, and they had a soft pianist playing society music off to the side.

All in all, I thought I was in Palm Beach instead of Cocoa Beach!

My husband and I go there every chance we get! The food is outstanding, the atmosphere is comfortable and romantic and the service can't be beat! We are driving 2 1/2 hours tonight just to go! LOVE IT!!

My husband and I go to the Mango Tree every chance we get. Since it is 75 miles from home, this is nowhere near as often as I would like it to be BUT...even times when it has been almost a year between visits, (our first time there was in 1995!) the staff REMEMBERS us!! It is a level of service I didn't think existed anymore. The food is incredible, even the salads, and we have never had a single disappointment in all of the times we have been there. Every course of every meal has been excellent, without exception. Even their bread is fantastic. This is, hands down, my absolute favorite restaurant - having dined in some of the finest restaurants in Florida, Chicago, Denver, L.A., that is saying something !
