Mango Named Best Latin American Restaurant in Suwanee

The eatery on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard wins a poll of Suwanee Patch viewers.

Suwanee has spoken, and they voted with their stomachs. Mango Cuban Restaurant has been named Best Latin American Restaurant in Suwanee by Patch readers, who voted this week.

Tex-Mex? No! Mex-Mex at Frontera

Frontera in Suwanee serves affordable and delicious mexican food.

Note: Suwanee Patch will have a special feature on this matter Sunday. Frontera Mex-Mex Restaurant is located on Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road, away from the hustle and bustle from Town Center, and is well worth the extra few minutes drive. Many a night, the ambience at Frontera is set by a live Mariachi band that plays a repertoire of familiar Spanish music. They even take requests from diners. Once you are seated, it does not take long for a basket of thin, crispy tortilla chips to make it to your table. With two types of salsa, it is sure to please any palette. Want even more fun? Order a bowl of queso to dip the chips in. If you are not full from the chips, the meals are equally delicious. From fish to beef to chicken, there are many …
