Mama's Cantina - Seattle

The food was average, and the restrooms were unclean and unsanitary. I won't be returning.

We had one of the worst dining experiences here. We made a reservation for 6:30, hoping to enjoy some drinks and tacos before heading to an 8 PM show at the Moore, just a few blocks away. However, our food didn't arrive until 7:30. Finally, at around 7:40, one dish came out, and by 7:50 we had all our food, barely finishing it before rushing off to the theater. We specifically informed our server upon our arrival that we wanted to make the 8 o'clock show, yet we were constantly told "just 3 more minutes" from 7 to 7:40. If a Mexican restaurant can't manage to deliver 5 tacos and 3 burritos in under an hour, they really shouldn't be in business.

The food was excellent for the price. We sat at the bar and were served by the bartender. However, the service was quite slow; I'm not sure if it was due to being understaffed, but it seemed like the Saturday evening rush caught the staff off guard.

Show nothing like their reservation with a group of customers and a note on the door that they decided to “paint the kitchen floor” and close for the day and not notify people who had kept. when looking through the front door, everything we could see was dirty flowing, the definitiv did not look like it was painted. we had two reservations for tables of 8 and none of us were told that the restaurant had closed for the day. trust the reviews and do not do this facility. to the luck cactus on north terry could record our group.

TERRIBLE experience. I made reservations online. When we showed up they said their telephone and open table were not working so they did not have a table for us. We waited FOREVER at the bar before finally getting the bartender to acknowledge us. I will give hats off to the server that came on shift right as we were deciding to give up on Mamas. He apologized and did not charge us for the drinks. But...don't waste your time here. Whoever took it over just ruined the reputation of this once loved restaurant.
