First off, I want to say 5 stars aren't enough for the incredible hospitality & service Nikita provided for us tonight. From the very beginning, we were met with warmth, personality & professionalism. The wine was exquisite, the food was even better, & the ambience was undefeated. We are not from Montreal, but we will be visiting again specifically to dine at Mama C under Nikita's exquisite care. Merci beaucout from Vancouver.

Très beau restaurant, ambiance feurrée & élégante, excellent service! Parfait pour souligner une occasion spéciale. Mais surtout, c'est tellement bon! Nous avons essayé le plateau de fruits de mer: frais & délicieux. La serveuse, Clara, nous a également suggéré plusieurs succulents mezze & un excellent vin. C'était ma deuxième fois & j'étais contente de pouvoir faire découvrir cet endroit à mon fils. Cette 2e fois fût aussi extraordinaire que la première. Certainement un de nos restos préférés. Merci à tous pour la belle soirée.

I honestly don't understand why this place is only rated 4.4 as it deserves so much higher! I'll admit, I was hesitant to come after reading some of the reviews, but I'm so glad I did. I brought a client here, & we ended up ordering almost everything on the menu - every single dish was outstanding.
The octopus was perfectly seasoned & juicy, the moussaka was beautifully done, the Greek salad was fresh, & even the beef mignon was incredibly tender. The service, staff, decor, & ambiance were all impeccable.
I'll definitely be coming back with friends & clients alike. If you're reading this, don't let the online rating fool you, go try it for yourself. You won't be disappointed!

We had a wonderful experience! The servers were exceptionally friendly & attentive, & the food quality was outstanding. I loved the lively & welcoming ambiance. I went there with my parents & my sister to celebrate my birthday, & I truly enjoyed every moment of it. The only dish that wasn't quite to my taste was the moussaka, which was a bit too salty for me, but everything else was absolutely excellent. I will definitely be coming back!

Group of 7 people. Thursday evening. No problem, reserved tables a day before the meeting. Work colleagues came... No show-off. Just relax, talk. Timely, unobtrusive service. We didn't take 200 photos of the dishes in all poses, waiting for the food to cool down. Just enjoy. Beautiful interior, a little noisy - & this is a great sign of the popularity of the establishment. The dishes are not complicated, but most of them are very tasty & on time. We ordered cocktails that are not on the menu - they made them & brought them without any problems!! Great evening! Will we come back - of course we will!

We had a lovely lunch at Mama C that turned into a truly memorable experience. Every dish was a pure delight, beautifully presented, full of flavor, & clearly crafted with care. The culinary creativity & attention to detail made the meal feel special from start to finish.
However, the service was slower than expected, especially given that the restaurant wasn't busy at the time. Prices were on the higher side, which made the pace of service feel a bit mismatched with the overall experience.
Still, Mama C delivers on taste & ambiance, & we'd happily return for another indulgent meal.

We had a wonderful birthday dinner! We tried their tasting menu & couldn't be happier about the decision. The vibe of the restaurant is romantic & chic. The restaurant was full but surprisingly quiet enough! Food was amazing & we were impressed by every single dish! Last but not least, Nikita's service is impeccable!

Passing by this restaurant & decided to try the lunch menu. The grilled octopus was very delicious, & the beef tartare was very good too! The portion is very generous. I also love the dessert 💖
It was a surprise for me, I really enjoyed the food & the service was very nice. Will definitely come back again to try other dishes on the menu :)

Un peu déçu de l'expérience du midi. J'avais adoré la carte & l'ambiance en soirée. Mais rien à voir le midi. Les plats sont +- classiques, les quantités ne sont pas en rendez-vous & les prix sont très élevés. & nous avons patienté plus de 30 minutes pour que nos plats arrivent. Nous sommes ressorti avec la faim & avons du compléter avec un sandwich ailleurs.
Donc je recommande pour le soir mais pas pour le midi.

Unbelievable experience. Food & cocktails were incredible. Service was on point. Could not be happier with our visit. We will 100% come back here next trip. Hamachi crudo was wonderful & the steak tips were perfectly cooked.

While visiting Montreal we noticed this restaurant while walking & looking for a dinner spot. We were greeted warmly & seated without a reservation.
We had cocktails with Lot 40 Canadian Whiskey, a lamb kabob appetizer, halibut, & pasta main dishes.
All the staff were knowledgeable, helpful, & efficient. The service was well timed & the atmosphere was quiet, sophisticated, yet fun. We finished the night with a bougatsa dessert (pictured below), not to be missed.
New! More ways to react to reviews.
