My family and I went by Mambo Italiano one Friday evening hoping for good Italian food, and nice conversation. Unfortunately, we received neither. When we arrived, we were seating within five minutes; that was promising. After our drink orders were taken, it took almost 10 minutes for them to arrive. The bar was just one table away. We were seated right next to ""Carmine the Entertainer"". He had his amps so loud, we could not even talk to the person sitting next to us. We asked the waitress to have him turn the volume down, and he did so... for about 2 minutes, then it was back to business as usual. The food was bland, we had to keep getting the waitress's attention for refills on our drinks (water, tea, and sodas). This was the most disappointing dinig experience we have had since moving to Apex. We will not be returning to ""the Best in Apex"".
