We were not expecting this especially since the sign at the entrance said no minors after 9:30 pm. This was a bit uncomfortable for us since we had gone with a few families with kids. Our recommendation, come back at an earlier time. Other than that, we were able to find street parking directly in front of the restaurant. In the end, this is a place we are going to bring back friends and family but...at an earlier time!

This is the second location for 809- I understand that they have a long time place on Lyell Ave. The service was great- our waiter Gabriel was very attentive. Another waitress and the hostess also stopped by to check in on us. The wife had the signature Mojito (which I tried and it was excellent) and I had a Mojito Especial with lime. They bring out their "house appetizer" which was a warm load I homemade bread and a balsamic dip. Very good! Both our dinners were excellent- mine was a Chicken Fried rice with steak and shrimp - it is a massive mound and I ate about half of it (that's lunch for tomorrow). Lots of shrimp and steak in there. And very flavorful. This is the first review and I am giving it 5 stars - I recommend checking out this different style restaurant - we will be back!

The Chicken came as ordered, and the White Rice was good. It comes with a small side salad. The Burger my little friend liked, he ate it with gusto. Fries were crispy and perfectly fried. Sodas & Maltas complemented the meal. Service by a young lady was friendly and prompt. I will return to try more dishes. Mofongo is next.

Look for the brightly colored sign featuring the Puerto Rican flag or else you might miss Mamia's…read moreIsland, an authentic family-operated Puerto Rican restaurant opened by owners Neymaris Sierra and Andrew Stewart along Route 104 in Ontario. Mamia's Island is a serve-you-at-the-counter type restaurant, with a small dine-in area with about 5 tables, but you absolutely don't want to skip trying this place out. My wife and I were on our way to Rochester on a day off, and had plans to grab lunch at a different restaurant there. My wife happened to spot Mamia's as we passed by on Rt 104 and we decided to turn around and give them a try instead, and we were very glad we did. This place was way more our speed. We love ethnic foods, and we pulled in right as they were opening and the small parking lot was already full - good sign. We went in and placed our order - we got a "medium" 2-meat plate with yellow rice, albondingas & pernil, along with 2 empanadas (1 beef, 1 chicken) and an order of mixed (yuca & plantain) tostones. Everything was delicious. The only complaint we had was we did end up getting a lot of connective tissue in our pernil, but other than that, everything was amazing. We did wish the tostones were served with some kind of dipping sauce, but fresh, they honestly didn't need anything. They were seasoned and salted perfectly, the empanadas were amazing, and it was enough food to feed us twice. The total was around $30. We'll be making the half hour drive to get food regularly.

The service was also incredible, I enjoyed talking to the lady taking my order and she shared a lot of history behind the pictures in the restaurant and in general. If you're in the area, it's an absolute go to!
