The restaurant, which resides in Commissioner Sorenson's district, uses some seasonal and locally grown produce found in the Redland agricultural community and Fruit & Spice Park itself. "Mango Café provides a wonderful venue to showcase the fantastic array of fruits, vegetables, and herbs that are grown right here in our backyard," said Commissioner Sorenson.

Popular menu items include a Fresh Tropical Fruit Mélange Salad which serves a bountiful array of succulent exotic fresh fruits with cottage cheese and banana bread, and a wide variety of Fruit & Spice smoothies and shakes.  Patrons can also find Café specialties such as Florida Lobster Roll, Shrimp Tacos, an assortment of salads, sandwiches, entrees, and dessert items like Mango Passion Cheesecake and Fresh Homemade Key Lime Pie, all prepared by local chef Brian Cullen of the Fruit & Spice Park.

The Mango Café is open seven days a week, except Christmas Day, from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.  Special events can be accommodated by coordinating with the restaurant in advance.  Customized catering menus are also available for parties on or off the premises.  Dining reservations are not required.
