Mama's Place — Restaurant in Boston

I found Mama's Place to be very much subpar, and as a Greek myself it pains me to say this. I love my country's food, but unfortunately Mama's Place did it a disservice, which could very well be explained by the lack of Greek chefs. I appreciated the decor, which was minimal, but it reminded me of my yiayia's house (grandma's house) so I liked it. However, I found it to be in an out-of-the-way location and despite its good reviews online I was unimpressed.The spanikopita tasted vaguely of onions, which it really should not (or else the menu should at least state the ingredients), and the rizogalo wasn't sweet or thick enough for my taste. The gyro was all right, but even though I had been craving Greek food for a while I still found myself thinking that "this wasn't worth it" - so, while the food wasn't horrible I still am giving it 2 stars for failing to meet my expectations. There are hopefully other places around the Boston area that can satisfy my standards after being exposed to yiayia's cooking. All in all, it's not horrible, but I believe that with some minor adjustments in recipes, customer information, and chef quality/authenticity, Mama's Place can truly become a gem in the...

Don't go there if you're in a hurry there's a long wait unless you call in or order online. I waited half hour for 2 fish & chips, one with salad. A little price for the portions. Also, fish kind of bland not alot of seasoning, but it was hot, I liked that. The cashier/server was great to repear customers some he remembered by name. However, he seemed a little annoyed with me, the phone ringing and the delivery guy. My husband suggested we go there since we were in the area and hungry. I didn't feel very welcomed nor was he that attentive to me, i had to keep repeating myself. Lastly, I am a firm believer of first come first served but I didn't like standing there looking at my food waiting for it to be bagged and given to me while he packed up delivery orders. Why not get me out the door if my stuff is ready and I'm right here? I won't be back but that probably doesn't matter they seem to get...

Stopped here on my way home from work to pick up dinner and boy, they did not disappoint! I got a beef kebab plate and when I got home and opened my box, was pleasantly surprised at the amount of food! (Came with rice, beef kebab cooked with green peppers and onions, and pita and Greek yogurt on the side.) Taste was great and is more than enough for one maybe even 3 meals for me! Actual store itself is small, would be difficult to eat here I think. I just wish they had a salad platter option to get the meat and veggies with less carbs and make it an overall healthier meal. I also wish it came with just a little more meat for the cost. Last wish is a little more Greek yogurt, I felt like I was rationing it as I divided my order into multiple meals. Regardless, the food is delicious and I definitely plan to stop here again on days I don't mind a meal on the...
