Fruteria el Manguito - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant was mixed. While the parking was good and the staff was ultra friendly, the food was a bit too sweet for my liking. I noticed the sweetness in the air upon entering, and the item I ordered, as well as my friend's, seemed overly sweet even before adding honey. Overall, the food was a bit too sweet, but the service and atmosphere were positive.

This is my kind of spot! I came here with a group of buddies and we were looking for some good food. I got the tosti elotes and they were amazing! My friend got the manzana loca, and I had a couple of pieces – also amazing! My other buddy got the açaí bowl with three flavors and loved it! We shared the lomo torta, and the shredded beef was so flavorful! We each got a mangoneada to go, and we loved it – the best we've ever had! The restaurant was clean, and the service was good, which is always a plus! Definitely coming back here!

I was so excited to try the food! The website said it was open, but when I arrived at the location, it was closed. What a frustration, especially when I was hungry and they still had the 'Open' sign on the door! 🤦‍♀️

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their tuna torta. I love tuna tortas, and the one I had here was absolutely delicious! I got it with everything, and it did not disappoint. The tuna salad was perfectly seasoned—not too heavy, with a nice balance of creamy and fresh flavors. The bolillo bread was a standout feature, toasted just right so it was warm and had a delightful crunch, adding the perfect texture to every bite. The toppings were fresh and generously layered, complementing the tuna beautifully. The tomato and lettuce provided a fresh contrast, and the jalapeño and Chile de aceite brought just the right amount of heat. The portion size was satisfying without being overwhelming, making it an all-around enjoyable meal. This was one of the best tuna tortas I’ve had in a long time, and I can’t wait to come back and have it again! Highly recommend it for any torta lover.

I came here today all the way from El Cajon, arriving at 8: 04 PM. Unfortunately, I guess we wasted our time as the store was closed.

I've been to this restaurant numerous times and have consistently had a great experience. The fruit is pretty good, and the ordering online process works totally fine. I've had no issues with my visits.

I drove from Escondido specifically to try this place, and it was absolutely worth it! The customer service was exceptional; the two ladies working today did a fantastic job and treated everyone with respect. I will definitely be returning more often because they have really good staff. I tried the Pelón Pelón Rico, and all I can say is that it was super delicious. The water was also really good. Thank you ladies for keeping a smile on your face and greeting everyone as they came in.

My experience at the restaurant was amazing! The açaí bowl was so good, and they were very generous with the fruit portions. The açaí itself was blended incredibly smoothly. The staff were very nice and accommodating; they readily replaced the bananas with strawberries for me and piled them on. I gave it a 10/10 and can't wait to try other menu options!

My experience was at a sunny, bright spot on a cloudy day. I grabbed a mango twist smoothie and some chips. I really wanted to try the chamango, but I'm driving. The service was fast, the place was cute, and the smoothie was super refreshing and delicious.

Today was my first time visiting this spot with my pregnant girlfriend. We found the torta to be delicious, the ice cream was great, and the fruits were amazing. Keep it up, y'all! We'll definitely be coming back. Sheeeeesh.
