In the heart of Nueva Andalucía, right next to Mercadona, you’ll find Mangio—a cozy Italian terrace that’s casual and convenient, perfect for enjoying delicious, quick meals without compromising on quality. Mangio Pizza & Co. stands out for its authentic offering of pizzas and ice cream, two of the most iconic products of Italian cuisine, beloved by people of all ages and nationalities. This new spot has quickly become a go-to for food lovers with gourmet palates who live in or pass through Calle Califa.
Mangio’s specialty is the pinsa, a Roman variation of the traditional pizza, known for its dough made from a special mix of three flours and fermented for 72 hours. This dough is notably low in gluten, making it incredibly light and easy to digest. Each pinsa comes with a variety of toppings using the highest quality ingredients, imported directly from Italy, ensuring an authentic and refined flavor in every bite. These gourmet pizzas not only delight the taste buds but also stand out for their naturalness, quality, and authenticity—unexpected in this cozy corner of fast and homemade food.
In addition to its pizzas, Mangio offers salads, smoothies, natural juices, spritz, and an Italian take on tapas, including boards of Italian cheeses and cold cuts, along with appetizers that reflect Italy’s rich culinary tradition. The experience is rounded out with a selection of wines, carefully chosen to complement the flavors of the dishes.
The Rivareno Experience
Mangio shares its space with the prestigious artisan gelateria Rivareno, a well-known institution in Marbella renowned for its ice creams made from 100% natural ingredients, without additives, and with a focus on high-quality raw materials. Rivareno, with nine years in the area, is famous for its flavors based on fresh fruit, nuts, and high-quality chocolate. In the summer, Rivareno’s granitas and popsicles, unique for their texture and intensity, take center stage, made solely from seasonal fruit and ice, adhering to the same philosophy of purity and authenticity.
Welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere
The recent comprehensive renovation of the exterior terrace has transformed Mangio into a comfortable, welcoming, and family-friendly space, perfect for enjoying excellent products at any time of day. It’s ideal for late breakfasts, lunches, snacks, dinners, or even parties, with dishes that are as simple as they are delicious, pleasing everyone from children to adults. Additionally, Mangio offers very reasonable prices for the area, making it an appealing choice for neighborhood residents who can easily walk or drive, with convenient parking available.
For those who want to bring the Mangio experience to their home or event, the restaurant offers a tailored catering service. You can order pizzas, pinsas, cakes, and Italian dishes, all with the same quality and simplicity that characterize Mangio. The service is friendly, attentive, and adaptable to the needs and requirements of every customer, reflecting the restaurant’s philosophy: simplicity is best, as long as the quality is excellent.
Mangio is open every day from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM, and on Sundays from 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM. As they say in Italy, you don’t need much to be happy; as long as what you have is delicious and served with a smile, it’s all worth it.
