If you're in the mood for some Mexican/Spanish/Caribbean cuisine and don’t feel like going far, it’s Mambo to the rescue.  Located just a few minutes from school at 19th and Allen Streets, Mambo offers great service and never-ending dining options – owner Johansen Hernandez is happy to tailor meals to your liking even if they’re not on the menu.  Start with a sample of the seasoned homemade chicken, steak, or pork.  And we’d suggest the black bean with chicken soup as an appetizer and the enchillada, burrito, and tostado combination for your main course—it’s a delicious and huge amount of food, all for under $10.  Mambo is BYO but, if you should forget, there’s a liquor store right next door.  (Open M 11a-8p; Tu-Sa 10a-11p; Su 11a-8p.)
