Today my wife took ne to mama's for some seafood... because we went so early, they had a limited menu which was fine.... our server anthony was awesome!!!... he gave great suggestions and his vibe made the experience better... my wife had to send her first plate back because of the salt but the manager came out and was very accomidating... he did a good job making it right and brought her an alternative selection... the food was delicious. See attached.... def a place to come have good food and good vibes!!

The waffles Foster was amazing. It tasted like a funnel cake. The seafood club was amazing. The sandwich is enough for two to share. My only complaint is I requested no bacon, however it was added. I had to return it, but they took care of it. The service and ambience is excellent. I will definitely return again and again.

First time visiting, came for Saturday brunch with friends before a Hopkins lacrosse game. Staff are friendly and accommodating. A large group reserved the whole upstairs but we were comfortable in a table near front window. Beer selection is okay, the cocktails ordered by others looked good and everyone enjoyed them. Bloody Mary cocktail each had a slight variation on garnish that looked a bit like a small salad. I ordered crab eggs benedict. The eggs were perfectly prepared as you can see in the photo. Potatoes were flavorful and delicious. And well, any time you get a tasty crab cake, it's a pleasure. Overall good experience but want to return and try the full menu.
