Best lamb chops & mashed potatoes of my life. The dips are also amazing. Looking forward to go back & try other dishes

Great experience with a delicious lunch menu. We reserved a table for 15 people to celebrate a colleague's retirement. The experience from completing the reservation up until the end of meal was great. Melissa was very nice & took time to explain the menu.
The fish of the day was one of the best fish dishes we've ever had!

Decent greek food. Some items amazing while others left much to be desired.

Plating & service was as to be expected when good, clumsy when bad (ie. assistant server injecting himself into a wine selection presentation & tasting, dropping off a dish missing plates & ultimately breaking the flow of said presentation).

Certain dishes seemed to be a bit lukewarm for what they warranted, while others extremely hot, some arriving nearly instantly, while others arriving after significant waiting, & some exciting & flavourful (pita & dip, sashimi were great, octopus although cold was also quite nice) while others shockingly bland (the moussaka here is a dish served in a shallow au gratin-style pan & tastes only of béchamel sauce, salted meat, & eggplant, rather than being the vibrant, well-plated, & warmly spiced dish it is meant to be, & in complete honesty the greek salad legitimately could have been from a grocery store carton if you had me blindfolded - a slog to finish). Overall an inconsistent menu, from my selections at least.

Had Theo C as a server who was great throughout the meal with wine pairings, conversations, & a shooter for the occasion, however at the end of the meal, payment & tip as well as an exchange of names & handshakes were immediately followed up with the presentation of a business card & branded postcard with a request for a'good google rating' in his name'so he can get a free meal' - something so comically cheap that one wonders where the hell they have even just eaten, a ludicrously tasteless conclusion to what would otherwise be simply a passably mediocre experience. Perhaps the staff were trained by Uber drivers.

Interior design as others have stated is of course beautiful as one would expect at this price point, but given that a restaurant is in need of an interior in order to begin operation, it does not influence my review of the actual operating dining experience.

Overall sentiment is that the restaurant needs to decide what it wants to be: a great greek space that creates genuine, meaningful experiences & promotes an authentic desire to spread good word & return, or a cheap old port tourist trap. I think the area is in more need of something aligning with the former.

This Greek restaurant boasts a fantastic design-warm & welcoming throughout, with dim lighting that instantly puts you at ease. The music is subtle & atmospheric, setting the perfect mood without ever overpowering the conversation. The food is delicious, featuring creative twists on classic Greek dishes where every bite feels thoughtful & flavorful. The sommelier was a real highlight too- knowledgeable, attentive, & genuinely helpful without being pushy. It elevated an already great experience! The staff are genuinely friendly & respectful, always smiling, & the service feels personal & unhurried. Overall, it's a solid choice-I'd happily return!

Modern Greek restaurant with a refined take on classic dishes. The food was consistently good, with a contemporary twist rather than strictly traditional preparations. Service was fast & friendly. The wine list is thoughtfully curated & pairs well with the menu. While it's somewhat on the expensive side, it's mostly justified. Standout dishes for me were the pastitsio & the roasted aubergine. Overall, a solid choice for Greek food.

Cute brunch spot. Service is great. Dining room is stunning. Good selection of dishes on the brunch menu, but all we had was coffee, a croissant & the Greek yogurt dish. Will probably come back for dinner.

Amazing experience at Mama C Restaurant!
The space is beautiful & very welcoming, & the food & coffee were really good. We had a great time there with my parents who were visiting from Mexico.

Basil, our server, was very friendly & attentive. He took the time to explain the dishes in spanish to my family-especially my parents, who don't speak any English-& his recommendations were excellent. That made the whole experience feel relaxed & enjoyable.

My brother & I own a Mexican café in downtown Toronto, so we truly appreciate good food & genuine hospitality. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're visiting the area.

We had a most enjoyable family lunch, with eleven of us, including four children. The menu was most original, with classic dishes, most with a Greek take on them (steak tartare is divine!). Our waitress, Melissa, was amazing, possibly one of the best servers I have had the pleasure to experience. It started when we entered & she took the initiative to seat our family in a quiet corner. Melissa was incredibly patient in taking our order, creative with her recommendations, especially when it came to the kids' order. Throughout the meal, Melissa was attentive & proactive & made our luncheon a wonderful reunion.

Tried THE MAMA C EXPERIENCE (125$ per person)'a four-course culinary journey with 6 to 8 shared plates showcasing some of their finest offerings.'

Honestly, it was way too much food. Some dishes were good, others were delicious. Unfortunately, the thin steak at the end didn't do it for me, but overall, the food was solid. We also had a couple of vodka martinis & Old Fashioneds, which were very good.

This is a high-end restaurant, so expect pricey dishes & dress nicely. The ambiance is pretty nice & the clientele is classy.

Service was great as well.
Street parking.

An amazing restaurant located in a renovated hotel, hotel Nellygan in old downtown Montreal. Amazing decoration, amazing ambience & the first drink at the bar.
We had some delicious dishes to share all of them with a great presentation & super nyami & then sea bass as a second, which was tasty, fresh & exquisite. We share 2 super tasty desserts that leave us without words. Definitely a place to go back again.
