Excellent Suggestion

by vneidell at Citysearch

I would like to thank everyone for recommending this restaurant. It was excellent!! The food was spectacular and the atmosphere was so nice and engaging. I highly reccomend it for anyone who would just like a nice meal out. The shrimp dumplings melted in my mouth. The wasabi crusted tuna was to die for. The whole places was just so nice and inviting. I highly recommend.

Try it, you'll love it!

My husband and I went to Mambu last night after a being told by a waiter at one of our favorite restaurants, Saffire, and we were not disappointed. The atmosphere was very pretty.

We had a sampling of everything. We had the Lobster Egg Rolls and Crab cake and everything was great, very tasty. The bread they gave was a combination of olive loaf, potato bread, wheat bread with a goat cheese, tomato dipping sauce.

We next had the Arugula Salad and spinach Salad, with an asian flare. We had the Roasted Chicken Breast with vegetables and potato gnocchi and the Beef Tenderloin Tips. Just fabulous. A great mixture of textures, flavors. Finished off the meal with the Triple Chocolate Torte and the Almond Coffee Cake with Green Tea ice cream. We definitely will be back! Try it, you'll love it.

Mambu, Love You!

Being a native Los Angeleno I continue to find aspects of Nashville that make me feel less homesick. Mambu is one of them! The eclectic blend of food, drink, ambience and service has been transported from the streets of Melrose or La Cienega and has landed on Hayes Street! Couldn't have felt "more" at home. From the unassuming locale thru the entire house, there's so many fascinating things to enjoy. Heading the list, is the food. The dumplings...a must! The tuna...to die for! Tried the Veal Chop one time, the fresh catch another. Simply amazing! Didn't think I had any room left for dessert, but thought I'd better try. I'm glad I did! Had the almond coffee cake with green tea ice cream!!! WOW! who would have known that such a place existed right in the "heart" of Nashville? Well, I know! Mambu, I love you!
