Used to love it --- now r0aches and a bad attitude

by pbord3 at Citysearch

I used to love this place when I lived in NY in the 90s, but after a recent visit where we saw two c0ckroaches in the dining area I am afraid we can never go back.

I spoke to the staff immediately but they shrugged it off. I wrote the management but they never replied. How many c0ckroaches is too many in NYC? If the food were great I might reconsider but if the kitchen cleaners are as apathetic as the staff....well, I won't be going back.

• Pros: location
• Cons: Unclean, deplorable service, and fair at best food

Best salad bar ever

by theonlyvic at Citysearch

I'm completely addicted to the Mangia salad bar. An amazing range of choices, with particularly incredible grain salads. Really good salad dressing too. A bit pricey, but absolutely worth it.

• Pros: Amazing salad bar
• Cons: On the expensive side

small critters in my salad

by Jos56 at Citysearch

I will never order from Mangia again. I found several in sects in my salad, which I got delivered at my workplace. When I phoned and spoke with a 'manager', he told me that it happens sometimes when they forget to wash the lettuce... He said they sell 300 salads a day, and it is to be expected. Be careful if you decide to eat here!

• Pros: nada
• Cons: in-se-ct-s

Quick lunch

by happipatti976 at Citysearch

I stop in here every now and then when I want a warm lunch and fast. They are quick, the food is fine, but its a bit pricey. OH well, I guess that is midtown. I do like that it is very spacious and open.

• Pros: quick and easy
• Cons: pricey

I FOUND A RO@CH IN MY FOOD

by spotless12 at Citysearch

I had a salad from the open salad bar at this place. Sat down to eat my lunch back at the office and found a RO@CH IN THE FOOD. PLEASE DO NOT EAT HERE. My company has ordered food from here for years and I was quite disappointed by the reaction of the cashiers. They made it seem as if it were my fault. So please spend your money somewhere else.

• Cons: Not clean
