About Mum Mich restaurant

Mum Mich restaurant is a small, welcoming mom and pop's shop in Boston serving a unique and impressive mix of Trinidadian and Soul Food, described as a happy marriage. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and laid back, featuring an open concept kitchen. The food is consistently made and seasoned with love, to perfection, and tastes freshly made at home. Portions are generous and the staff is very nice, kind, and patient.

Specific praised dishes include the delicious Candi Yams, the Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Frosting, and perfectly seasoned Oxtails. The Curry Chicken and Stew Chicken are standout meals, with the stew noted to taste authentically like that from Trinidad. Excellent sides include delicious black rice, fresh peas and rice, cheesy Mac and Cheese, crunchy cabbage, memorable Collard Greens, and a Macaroni Pie that is better than at other local Caribbean restaurants. The Sorrel drink is also mentioned.

The experience is great all around, though it is noted that the restaurant can be a little pricey, with prices comparable to other Caribbean restaurants. A minor negative is that seafood is only available on weekends. Reviewers highly recommend it, especially for those seeking authentic Trinidadian flavors, which have Asian and Middle Eastern influences and differ from Jamaican food. Customers report being very impressed, thoroughly enjoying their meals, and plan to return frequently.
