  • Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

    We absolutely can. From gluten-free to dairy-free and vegan, Mangia can tailor a menu to your specific diet without sacrificing flavor.

  • Is there a limit to amount of people per party?

    For most gatherings, Mangia can accommodate 30 persons per party. However, if you are looking for a larger party, let’s chat about it!

  • Do you offer cooking classes?

    We sure do! We offer private cooking lessons or you can treat your friends to the gift of learning in your own home.

  • What kitchen equipment must be available on site?

    Mangia is a private chef service that cooks on site. In order for us to do our job properly the site must have a working oven & stove top range, refrigerator, and running potable water.

  • Do you provide dish ware, flatware or linens?

    Mangia provides compostable dish ware in the event the site does not have china included. 

  • Do you accommodate children?

    Of course! Homemade Mac and cheese? Yes, please.

  • Does Mangia have a travel fee? How far will you travel?

    Mangia will travel up to 1.5 hours from our home base of Portland Maine. Anything over 45 minutes will incur a travel fee. 

  • Does Mangia throw themed parties?

    You bet! Fiesta night, Mediterranean, Italian, and so many more. Not only can we supply a themed menu, but a themed table scape to accompany it.



  • How long does a dinner party usually run?

    Dinner parties usually run between three and four hours. Mangia will arrive early for preparation, and leave promptly after the necessary cleanup procedures have been implemented. 

  • Are you ServSafe certified and insured?

    Mangia is fully-insured and has an up-to-date ServSafe certification.
