Mango’s Tropical Café began welcoming guests back nearly six months ago. Still, without the convention crowds, there’s been less demand for the special events spaces and large dinner party accommodations. Most of the dining room remained dark as owner Joshua Wallack focused instead of making do with the nightclub model the venue previously only ran on late nights. Multiple concerts and special events helped draw crowds back to the venue, without the large-scale dinner show performances that made Mango’s famous.
