Mongoose

Service was amazing, we got seated immediately and waitress Alyssa, was very attentive, refilling our drinks often! She recommended some great dishes and we enjoyed all of our noodles! My husband got the Hot and Spicy with Garlic steak, I got the Yakiudon and it was sweet & refreshing, my friend got the Red Dragon with an egg. We also ordered the 2 cakes: pistachio and mango. Both were so good. Healthy slices and not overly sweet! Hit the spot. Would highly recommend and will be back. There's indoor and outdoor seating, parking spaces by the restaurant and across the street. Cozy location too. The menu rotates & is short & sweet, which I don't mind because you know they've perfected the dishes.

Looked up places nearby to eat and saw this place had great reviews. First off, the look and feel of the place is amazing. It's like a renovated house made into a restaurant. Interior is homey which makes sense cause it's an actual home. The service is welcoming and patient. Very communicative of what's available or not and answered any questions we had. Now for the food. I had the sliders and the taco and it was delicious! The sliders were my fav. I highly recommend them ! The tacos were good but nothing compared to the sliders. I also had the spicy noodles a little that my friend had and wow that's spicy. If you like spicy and I mean... spicy, then it's for you.Overall I loved this place and I'm hoping I can go again while I'm in town. Recommended!

Everything was flavorful , the spicy beef was very spicy and we got medium lol the peanut sauce is bangin , my daughter enjoyed the cold soba noodles.... I do think the menu is very limited , if you don't want noodles or tacos this isn't the place for you. We wanted to try the egg roll and ramen but it wasn't the night for it. Maybe a better assortment of things would be better like ramen, egg roll , tacos, noodles? The service was great even though i think there was only one server tonight... the atmosphere is super cute though.

Super cool hidden little gem in DeLand. Everything we have ordered has been great! The curry sliders are delicious with a cold beer...and don't get me started on the mango cake. Sooooo good. Added this to our regular restaurant rotation spots.

First of all the homemade mango cake is literally LIFE-CHANGING! Its is so huge you can literally take half of it home and have the rest for brekkie and coffee. I have had EVERY taco in all of Deland and the lemongrass asada tacos are seriously hands down the BEST, most flavorful combination I have ever experienced. My second fave is the chicken salsa verde with the queso fresco . Honestly just order one of each taco ! You won't regret it .The Hong Kong noodles with the shiitake mushrooms and mint has my heart and soul . If you love sparkling water order the Sapporo . You're welcome :) You feel right at home and the vibe is so welcoming .

Great food, great service. Small menu but yummy choices. Nice deck area. Definitely be back!

The food was outstanding. From the sliders, to the tacos and noodles had an amazing taste. Service was great.

The Food was amazing! Best Shitake Noodles and best pork belly Tacos! The place was packed and only one waitress doing magic to serve everybody with an awesome attitude and a smile! I don't know her name but she was doing a great job! Cheers to her! Loved the place! Super recommended!

After having a glass of wine in downtown DeLand, it was time to eat. And it was well worth the 5-minute walk off the beaten path to Mongoose. It's located in a nicely renovated old house and we sat on the porch. We were greeted with a big smile from the staff. After being seated, our waiter explained the menu. It's not very big, and it does not need to be. We ended ordering almost everything for the 3 of us. 3 of each taco, Hong Kong noodles, Sesame noodles, and the sliders. All was delicious. If you can't decide, I highly recommend at least one of each taco and the HK noodles. We will be back.

THE BEST TACOs & noodle dishes in Volusia county! Great service. Great ambiance! Terrific apple cake. The sliders are to die for! And they are open on Sunday afternoon!! YESYESYES!
