Spring Rolls, Dumplings, Lo Mein Noodles, Singapore Noodles, Sweet and Spicy Chicken, just to name some of the fine dishes. Take some of yout favourites away to enjoy in your rental home, hotel or hostel. Also offered... More

One of our best meals in Manuel Antonio, and the best value. Enjoyed talking to the owner, who personally cooked for us, and the staff.

The food here is made fresh and is excellent. Even my picky kids liked it. The owner is originally from the U.S. and is very knowledgeable about the area. It's just a small place on the road to MA. I had dinner to go one evening and then had delivery to my hotel on another. Prices are very reasonable, especially... More

I've been back there several times since I first reviewed Ngo in their infancy and just like all new restaurants - it takes a little time to pull it all together. Susie and Kahn pulled it together so well they won the local competition for "Best Take-out Restaurant." This couple loves to cook and it shows. I love the Spicy... More

During our recent visit to MA we were worried about getting good vegetarian food. We were lucky to find NGO one evening. It is a small place but the husband/wife owners make fantastic clean and good quality food. They make all their own sauce with no preservatives/additives. They made very good vegetarian noodles and fried rice. They will also make... More

Amazing tasting food! Unfortunately discovered this place rather late in our trip, so only ate here twice, but both times the food was so so so good. Everything is cooked fresh when you order!! We had the salad rolls, chop suey, and the sweet and spicy chicken. There is not really a lot of room to "eat in"- but perfect... More

We had the Dulce Picante Chicken (sweet and spicy chicken) and it was very good, lots of flavor, and the portion size was okay. I think it was a little over priced for what you get, chicken and rice for $7 but nonetheless it was very good. The dumplings were also delicious. One thing that bothered me about this place... More

When we are in Manuel Antonio, we usually concentrate on the great, fresh seafood, so Asian take-out isn't something we really consider. At the same time, given the great reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided to try Ngo (pronounced "no") during our most recent trip. I'm so glad we did. Kung (?spelling) and the other staff couldn't have been more... More

We enjoyed a very reasonably priced and tasty dinner tonight with delicious dumplings, spring rolls, spicy fish platter and spicy chicken wings .. everything was fresh and accompanied by excellent sauces .. We loved it .. they were out of the Vietnamese sandwiches at 8pm but I know those would be excellent too from tasting everthing else. The owner is... More

Refreshing to find a takeaway in Manuel Antonio which serves good, fresh food at reasonable prices. The spring rolls were particularly good. Also had the chop suey and sweet n sour chicken. Very friendly owner.
