    Unique! Please read this. We were there last night with another couple who we split the bill with. I carelessly without looking carefully,signed my part and add the tip. 20 minutes later when I got home I got a call from Pete the manager at Mambo. He said that they inadvertently put the entire bill on my copy and half to the other couple. During the height of business on a Saturday evening he called and canceled the payment and I was able to pay my half. Besides the phenomenal meals we each had we were blessed with honesty and integrity. THANK YOU!
