Super soirée au Mama C ! Enzo à l'accueil est vraiment adorable !!
Hyper pro & super accueillant, on se sent direct à l'aise. & Théo au bar… incroyable ! Les cocktails sont aussi bons que beaux, il gère vraiment. L'ambiance est top, le service nickel. On reviendra, c'est sûr !!
I was at Mama C last Thursday & first off the hostess was very rude so that wasn't a good sign. We were 2 minutes late because its a location thats hard to find & also tough to navigate especially if youre out of town. Given we were 2 minutes late they placed us at one of their lower tables where if you are 6 foot it is very uncomfortable to sit. We asked numerous times given we were only there for 2 or 3 hours if we can have a more comfortable table given 30 percent of the tables were empty then kept saying no. Anyways I moved on, the service was quote slow for the 3 hours we were there I only received 2 orders of drinks because they said the service is really backed up for a Thursday before long weekend. It's a shame because the kebab & chicken we ordered tasted amazing but it was cold It's a shame this place has real potential & im aure it is a great spot but unfortunately my experience wasn't the greatest.

There's a kind of magic that drifts through the Old Port on a summer evening-cobblestone charm, golden hour glow, the hum of terrace laughter-& somehow, Mama C captures it all. From the moment we walked in, it felt like we'd stumbled into a hidden gem that doesn't need to shout to be noticed. The service? Warm, unrushed, & genuinely welcoming. The food? Let's just say it's the kind of cooking that makes you pause mid-bite & close your eyes for a second. It's also a reminder that you're in Montreal-one of the world's great culinary capitals! Every dish had heart, like someone's nonna whispered secrets into the sauce. We didn't have room for dessert-though our hearts tried to convince our stomachs otherwise-but it just gives us a reason to return. Mama C isn't just a restaurant. It's a love letter to summer nights, good company, & food that knows how to comfort without trying too hard.
Our first time at Mama C. Dinner thank you Jimmy for the warm reception, great smile & our waiter Nick for his attention to detail. The food was amazing very tasty a night to remember.
Breakfast unfortunately did not get the ladies names, once again the welcome was very pleasant. Food was great.
Thank you to all the wonderful staff. We will be back & definitely recommend this restaurant
De la cuisine Grecque gastronomique wow. Je me suis régalée. La meilleure expérience de cuisine Grecque vécue. Très bon service & ambiance relaxante. Le prix va avec la qualité de l'expérience. Toutes les cuissons que ce soit de la viande ou des poissons étaient impeccables. Merci à toute l'équipe pour la qualité de votre travail.
Excellent service, l'équipe est vraiment attentionnée & chaleureuse.
L'ambiance du restaurant est conviviale & bien pensée, même si le niveau sonore rend parfois les conversations difficiles (on ne s'entendait pas très bien à table).
Les mocktails sont un vrai coup de coeur!! Parfaitement réalisés, rafraîchissants & originaux.
Côté plats, c'est bon, bien exécuté, mais sans surprise au niveau des saveurs, on reste sur quelque chose de classique.
Une belle adresse pour passer un bon moment, surtout pour le service & les boissons!
Superbe expérience pour un souper d'affaires avec des clients. Les choix de menu à partager sont une excellente occasion de découvrir une série de plats excellents.
Ariane was amazing, she helped us through the menu & helped us with all the food.
She was amazing, & told us about how fresh the fish was.
She was great
Came here for the first time with my boyfriend after visiting from Toronto & I have to say the service & food were incredible. Ariane (the blonde lady) was absolutely amazing, her recommendations were spot on! (We did the beef kebab & sea bream as our mains). Truly exceptional service & she definitely made it an unforgettable experience for me. As someone who likes collecting souvenirs, she even let me keep the postcard that came with the bill which was such a lovely little touch. The team at Mama C should be lucky to have her. I was mind blown by the food as well, compliments to the chef. Although, I am only visiting for the weekend I can not wait to come back & visit solely for this restaurant :)
Great place , delicious foods, but one of the servers was a little obnoxious trying to tell that the fish that I ordered was a hundred dollars fish . I didn't ask for the price, I replied.
Put away that little mishap, I would definitely go back next time Im in Montreal.
When it comes to the food, just simply amazing. The lamb shoulder is to die for.
Service has been amazing!!
Josh, a real gentleman. Service on point with an attention to detail.
Nikkita, the human side & again attention to detail with an amazing service.
Mylène, a maître d'hotel that obviously cares about her staff & her guests.
Strongly recommend
