Food was very good. The spanakopita salad was really good, the Rockefeller oysters were ok. Not worth the money. Everything else was very good. Would go back. Great experience.

High end Greek food. VERY well presented, & very good tastes. My wife thought her fish filet was done perfectly. Easy going, but special. Definitely worth a return visit.

Went for a friend birthday party & I did love the food , ambiance very nice plus they have valet parking because of the hotel. Just the service was not so coordinated.

During our three-night, four-day stay in Old Montreal, we tried many restaurants, but Mama C''s truly stood out as the best. We went back three times.

Amazing food, service could have been a little bit better. Sat around twiddling my thumbs for a good 10min before they assigned someone to attend to me. I really enjoyed everything I ate. The boughatsa was one of the better ones I've had. I'd come back again to see if the service was a fluke.

Merci à Niki & Jimmy pour leur service des plus attentionnés. Leurs excellents conseils ont guidé nos choix tout le long de la soirée - nous avons été comblés! Les plats étaient délicieux, le service professionnel, & l'élégance & la finesse du décor réalisé par Atelier Zébulon Perron nous ont transportés. Bref, nous avons passé un superbe soirée chez Mama C - merci à Niki er Jimmy & à la prochaine!

The restaurant is very pretty but had a mediocre experience. For starters when we walked in the restaurant & it had a very fishy smell. Having gotten over that since it's a fish restaurant we sat down & ordered. After we placed our order the waiter came back & told us the fish one of us ordered they didn't have anymore so we ordered something different. Then a few minutes later came back to tell us the other fish we ordered they didn't have. As a matter of fact they had no more fish. It was 730 in the evening Not sure why they didn't tell us when we came in since we came for fish. Grudgingly we ordered other things. The main courses were not delivered at the same time. Some had to start to eat before the others. One main went back as it was cold as were the sides. Asked for bread & showed up after the mains showed up. The waiter was MIA for a good part of the meal no water refill etc. I had to get up at one point & let him we were not feeling the love. The food was ok but the Experience tainted the taste.
Took the sides off the bill but needed to do better.

I had the grilled seabass for lunch, & it was amazing (the octopus appetizer was also really good). My primary server was Melissa, & she was quite hospitable especially when I told her that I had lost my taste for sweets..
