Mama's Restaurant — Restaurant in Greater Perhentian Island

Avoid it if you can. We have been there twice for breakfast, and both times it was a horrible experience.

The first day, we waited a long time to order our food, then a long time for it to be served, and finally another long time to pay (there was nobody at the counter).

The second time was the same—and even worse. We ordered two cappuccinos (RM8 on the menu) without foam (we asked first if it was possible), plus one pancake and one waffle. They served the pancake, and 25 minutes later the two coffees (with foam) and the waffle arrived. By then, the pancake was no longer warm.

When we pointed out that we had asked for the coffees without foam, the waitress shouted, “No possible, no possible, no possible” at us and walked away.

At the counter, they tried to charge us RM14 for the coffees, claiming they were Italian Espresso 🤦🏽‍♀️.

I’ve been here twice, once for dinner and the morning after for breakfast. About the dinner I have to say the seafood menu was quite impressive.

The grilled fish was cooked well and tasted fresh. However, the main downside was the considerable wait time for our food to arrive at the table, which was somewhat disappointing. It's worth noting that the food is made fresh to order, so a wait is to be expected. The breakfast was nice too and it was the best I had in the island (I tried 3 different places). I’d suggest the fried egg and the crepes, both nice. The place inside is accommodating, while outside it’s a bit noisy and not so...

We have had lunch in this place today.

The food wasn’t good, had spaghetti carbonara which was made with sausages instead of bacon and it was way too much sauce that it looked like a noodle soup. The waiter was absolutely unmotivated and unfriendly. He brought our plates to the table and just putted the plates on the empty space on the table instead of placing them in front of the guests. We had to ask 2 times to get salt and pepper and the waiter reacted really annoyed on our requests because apparently he rather wanted to eat his own burger instead of serving food for the guests.

All in all it was a bad service and the food wasn’t good either. Can’t recommend to go to this place! There are way better restaurants on this island with friendly and...
