So, What happened to Mambo Jambo's fun decor?

When we were there 3 years ago, Mambo Jambo's was a favorite for lunch. The beautifully painted chairs and tables were sooo fun and unique! Last month we stopped by with great anticipation, and it looks just awful! Worn furniture needing a coat of paint, not as clean, one waitress working (and two ships in!). Is it under new ownership?

Think maybe the weather wears the furniture really fast as well as the sun....I agree that the picture for 3 years ago shows off the "fun" atmosphere quite nicely.....will have to stop in November and see if it still needs painting.....haven't been there in a long time since we don't really frequent downtown anymore.....

I think it's more than wear from the weather -- the chairs and tables had been painted solid colors over the coloful and imaginative designs , but was worn off. Really shabby compared to before! Too bad -- it was so cool!

Hopefully you contacted ownership and voiced your concerns. It's one of our "must stops" and we will be looking forward to seeing the crew in a couple of weeks.
