Mangiamo in Blackburn with Darwen

Enjoyed an early meal, service was good and efficient. The food seemed lovely. Sadly for 6 hours afterwards I was down with an upset stomach.

visited Magiamo with my husband last week, it was so good that I returned today to treat my parents. The staff are lovely, the food is amazing and the cocktails are great value. Thank you for a smashing afternoon.

Had a very enjoyable evening at the Tapas Bar. The food was excellent, hot and very good service, the staff was most pleasant. I would fully recommend here. For £20 for all you can eat is exceptional.

It was the first time on Saturday in 3 years that I have gone out for a meal as my husband cannot eat solid food and usually he would not be able to eat, so I just haven't bothered. As it was my birthday he asked me what I would really like to do and this time I said I would like to go for a meal.When we got to mangiamos I explained that I had booked for 4 people but only three of us would be eating.A lovely man asked me why and I explained to him. He then told me not to worry and that he could liquidise the dishes for my husband. This brought a tear to my eye I have to say. We sat and ordered and I thought they would bring my husbands' all mixed up together, but NO. They had liquidised each and every dish separately for him. He was so over the moon. They were really busy too.I found all the staff to be so helpful nothing was too much for them. Thank you Mangiamos for your care and consideration.

Excellent service and excellent food. Thoroughly enjoyed and will visit again

Not the best. Food seemed very microwaveable and watery. Staff were rude and took plates away whilst we was still eating. Very overpriced , £50 for food I could of cooked myself or gone to Wetherspoons.I won’t be returning.

Food was lovely and the staff were friendly, had prawns and calamari as part of the buffet and was so ill for 4 days with food poisoning that I won't be recommending this place to anyone, waste of money which is a shame because the experience was good. You have to be so careful with seafood, unfortunately this time, Mangiamos were not careful.

The staff were friendly but service was not brilliant. Some of the tapas were excellent but the Gambas pil pil was disappointing, it wasn't very spicy and there were 2 prawns, if you were sharing as a couple that was a prawn each. The calamari was excellent and the tortilla the best I've ever tasted but spice was lacking, it was a little disappointing and I wished we had gone alone to try it first.

We went on a Saturday afternoon and I suppose weren't surprised that it wasn't full, as the restaurant is on the outskirts of Darwen rather than a town centre, and we were seated at a large round table that had been set for 4.The extra settings were removed as we sat and we were offered drinks, we opted for the house red, which was a passable Spanish red, though there was a good winelist and interesting selection of cocktails available.The staff were attentive and allowed us time to peruse the 40 or so tapas dishes before we ordered our first 8 (4 each). The dishes arrived quickly and were very tasty and well seasoned, and this was the theme throughout. Notable were the calamari, which were cooked to perfection and not rubbery which is often a complaint, the prawns in garlic and chilli, which were large king butterflied king prawns, and the ribs, which were so good I had a second helping.Throughout, the service remained swift but not invasive and the food arrived quickly. We were both very impressed with the whole experience, the food was tasty and of good quality, the staff were great and the bill at the end was not eye-watering  (which it has been at previous taps restaurants). I would highly recommend Mangiamo Tapas and we will visit again.

Visit this place every year for our anniversary and it’s our favourite Italian. The staff are super friendly and attentive, such happy people! I love how the hosts are always singing, it brings such a jolly atmosphere to the place. The food is INCREDIBLE. The mushrooms are the best I’ve ever had! Can’t wait to visit again and I highly recommend this place to everyone.
