I was extremely disappointed with the waiter & the service I received. Given the price, I expected a much better customer experience. The waiter only showed up to take our order & never checked in on us-not even to offer water or refill our glasses. At one point, I saw him on his phone for several minutes before disappearing from his section. Even for the bill i had to ask a coworker. That said, the ambiance was great, the crowd was stylish, & the food was good.

Food was great. Atmosphere was great staff was great they gave me & my girl a nice private booth. BUT!!! we ordered the « Premium Tasting Menu » marked for 175$ on the menu & when it got to paying… it turned out it was 175$ per person!!! NO ONE TOLD US & IT IS NOT SPECIFIED ON THE MENU. It just felt like sophisticated burglary… I ended up paying because I was too shy to contest but afterwards I thought to myself; NO ONE TOLD US & IT IS NOT SPECIFIED ON THE MENU! If I had known… if the server had told us… or if it was mentioned in the menu, I would have chosen other options…
End of the story I paid 517$ & walked out feeling like I was scammed.

Absolutely fantastic in terms of both the food & the service! I was walking around the neighbourhood & randomly decided to go for a quick brunch. I had the pancake, paprika fries & turkey sausages, all were amazing, especially the pancake & the fries. As someone who rarely likes pancakes, I genuinely enjoyed this one, it's the softest, most fluffy pancake I've ever had in a long time, with the custard in between & phyllo on top, it's extraordinary, I'd literally come back just for that. The fries are properly seasoned with nice flavours. & the entire time, the girl who served me was incredibly nice & attentive, which really elevated the whole experience. I didn't expect much before I came in, but suffice to say I'll definitely come back & try dinner next time. Overall highly recommend!

Forgettable
Nous avons été attirés par le décor & la note sur Maps. L'accueil était très bien mais aussitôt assis on a compris que ce n'était que de l'apparence. La table nous arrivait à la poitrine & nous étions fort distants.

J'ai pris le toast à l'avocat avec oeufs pochés (2) c'était un beau plat en apparence à son arrivée mais ce n'était qu'un avocat tranché sur une tranche de pain sans aucune saveur & beaucoup trop d'avocat. Pas d'épices ou d'arômes. Il y avait de petits poivrons en dessous heureusement. J'ai pris le jus vert qui était très bien sans plus.

Mon conjoint a pris une omelette & un chocolat chaud tous deux très ordinaires.

Le tout pour 100$.

On y retournera pas.

Menu dégustation Signature tout simplement parfait & délicieux. Tatare de bar wow. Seul bémol vin au verre très dispendieux & aucun Ouzo de qualité.

Chaque visite au Mama C est un pur plaisir, & une grande partie de cette expérience est due à l'accueil irréprochable de Bill, le maître d'hôtel. Dès l'entrée, son professionnalisme & sa chaleur humaine nous mettent à l'aise, créant une ambiance à la fois élégante & conviviale.

Le service est impeccable, attentionné & personnalisé, rendant chaque moment unique. Bill sait anticiper les besoins des clients avec un sourire sincère & une efficacité remarquable.

Ajoutez à cela une cuisine savoureuse & une atmosphère vibrante, & vous obtenez une adresse incontournable ! Merci à toute l'équipe du Mama C, & un immense bravo à Bill pour son travail exceptionnel. Hâte de revenir !

Loved the classy, high-end decor & lighting, sets the tone for an elevated dining experience. The ambiance is warm & inviting, with amazing vibes that make it perfect for a night out.
The service is top-notch-attentive, friendly, & professional!
What really sets Mama C apart, is its unique twist on traditional Greek cuisine. The dishes retain the comforting flavors of classic Greek food but with a refined, gourmet touch that makes it special.
Mama C is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Excellent breakfast. The bacon was thick cut & perfectly cooked. The sour dough bread tastes like it was cooked on a campfire. I loved it.

Absolutely amazing time. Radislau took care of us from the moment we sat down, from food recommendations to drinks we felt like we have been coming here for years. The atmosphere is incredible. Mama C is now in our books to return in the very near future.

The experience was exceptional & credit is due to the wait staff & the chef. They really went above & beyond for a wonderful experience. The food was superb & healthy portions. The dining experience was incredible. All around, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone without hesitating for a moment. I look forward to going back! I am not Greek so I don't remember the names for all the dishes but we ordered 3 mains & 2 appetizers & everyone was superb.
