We visited on a Friday evening and called ahead when we were about 20 minutes out! The hostess greeted us and was so pleasant to talk to and we were seated immediately. The dining room was full and it was a cozy room with lots of conversation and delicious smelling food.
After a few minutes with the menu, we ordered drinks. I ordered the bloody mary and my partner had the Mango iced tea. Both drinks were fantastic and the bloody mary had a piece of sausage and grilled shrimp.
For our meals, we ordered the brisket platter with asparagus (veggie of the day) and the coleslaw. I ordered the Louisiana Platter that came with sausage, creole chicken, red beans and rice and cornbread. We shared our plates so we could have a taste of ALL THE THINGS! It was all incredible. We love creole cuisine and savored every bite. The brisket was flavorful and so tender. The andouille sausage was spicy and delicious paired with the red beans and rice. Don't walk, RUN to Flying Mango!

Flying Mango
read moreDon't you love it when you enter a restaurant and immediately know that you've made the right choice? That's exactly the confidence and warmth that Flying Mango exuded on two recent visits. We were greeted by no fewer than three people - a cook working the open kitchen, a server rushing food out to the patio and another server making her way through the busy room. I knew I was in great hands. Read the full review here. Even with the will power of a priest, no one can resist the temptation of the faintest wiff of what's cooking in this kitchen.
