“I chose to celebrate my birthday with brunch at Mamajuana based off of the social media posts I noticed on IG. Needless to say, it did not disappoint. My birthday brunch experience was amazing. The ambiance and energy were perfect. This is the exact vibe I was going for to celebrate my birthday. The service was great and I tried something different in terms of food which was also tasty. I highly recommend based off of my experience and would definitely return again. Shout out to Judy my hostess/server who was very attentive!“

“GREEDY!!!! The food was absolutely delicious! Boricua approved! 2 stars because you charge a 3% surcharge on credit cards for a company owned restaurant that already owns two bars in the city!!! That's not cool!!! That's so greedy for a $400 visit! Not cool, do better. You want people to come back here you get rid of that. Don't be those people.“

It’s all so fresh and delicious. As others have mentioned I agree that the portion sizes are very large! If you’re not sure what to get you can ask the owner and they’ll recommend you something. It’s located right by the York Dauphin L station, just a block away. Prices are reasonable. You can eat in or get takeout. I recommend everyone to try!“

“I stopped by this little spot for a quick bite and ended up blown away! I ordered the grilled chicken wrap, veggie fritters, and a side of fries — everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The chicken was juicy and seasoned just right, easily some of the best I’ve had in the area. The fritters were crisp on the outside and soft inside — absolutely delicious! The staff was super friendly, quick with service, and the place was spotless. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. This has definitely become my new go-to food stop — highly recommend!“

“I went Friday the 6th to celebrate my friend turning 18. Not my usual scene but the food was amazing. We all got different types of dishes and the adults loved their drinks. I got sushi and it was out of this world. The music was a little loud for my taste but still enjoyable. Kirsy was our server, she was excellent. She was so sweet and attendant to our party of 7. Even the bathrooms were clean and adorable!! If you're looking for a fun night out with good music and even better food and service, this is definitely the place to go.“
