After hearing the team behind Logan Brown had opened another establishment in Wellington, I had to…read moretry it during my visit. In short, I'm giving this a mid-range review because of the service, and because the food was only okay. A bustling Saturday evening, and having only opened recently could be the reason for the not so good service, but I would've thought a month was enough time to iron out the kinks. Initially told the wait would be 45mins for a table of 6, we ended up waiting nearly 1 hour 45 minutes. Normally, I would've left to dine at another establishment, but as I mentioned above, I was very keen to try the food. After checking with the hostess a couple of times (after the initial 45 minute wait), she tried her best to be accommodating by taking our food orders early so they would be ready when we finally sat down. Unfortunately, the food wasn't worth the wait: Ribs with hoisin-lime sauce fell away from the bone as if they'd been paid good attention to, but they were a little dry. Japanese fried chicken- good salt and pepper taste, with slightly soggy coating. Chicken was nice and tender. Bavette steak- nice flame grill char, cooked very well. Fennel Apple slaw- nice, but a little bland. To summarise, the price of food here is great if you're looking to order small plates to share, I don't think the portions of the mains were suited to their higher prices. The food here is decent, but if I had to wait a long time again, I wouldn't think twice about finding somewhere else to dine. As I said above, my experience could be a one off, which is why I've given three stars and not less. In a city with amazing dining options, grill meats beer will need to pick up their game if they are in it for the long haul.i

I came here specifically to have ribs, and I was not disappointed. I had the hoisin sauce, which was sticky and salty, and really good. I also had the onion knots on the side which I've never had anything quite like it. They're like curry flavored battered onions. The one thing I wish I had was some hot sauce for those ribs. Would come back here again, and also recommend for others to try.

My wife got the breakfast burrito, opting not to add anything to the black bean base. Taste was fresh if not a bit bland, and while the burrito is a pretty decent sized serving, it does not come with anything as a side. That was the same for my Pork PoBoy. It had a good fresh flavor, but also comes solo, and was only moderately sized. Prices are OK for what you get given where you are, but you may want to opt for a side if you are hungry. Lots of people around us were getting shakes and they looked good if you're in the mood for that. Lots of fun memorabilia abounds, and there are good views of the sidewalk and street from most seats.

The vibes are really fun in here - dark and moody with tons of comfy seating, mostly leather chairs and cozy sofas that make posting up for games fun. The crowd here was a BLAST - folks wearing all kinds of American football jerseys and going wild at each touchdown. Drink prices were reasonable and I loved that they carried the boozy lemonade we found elsewhere and enjoyed. Maybe it was just the Super Bowl energy, but we really liked the ambiance for sports games here!

Based on the older reviews of this place, it seems that Mama Brown has evolved into a different…read morerestaurant since the pandemic. What was once a place known for fish tacos is now more of a tribute to American Diner foods like hamburgers, fries, shakes, chicken and waffles. Overall, I really like this place. It's a great hangout spot for groups to bond over nice smashburgers, fries, waffles and fried chicken. Pros: great selection of burgers, fried chicken and a variety of waffles both savory and sweet in options. Con: if I had anything to complain about, it would be the odd liquid nature of the shakes. As an American, I'm used to shakes that are served thick enough at least initially to be eaten with a spoon. With shakes like Snickers bars mixed in, you expect a thicker more frozen shake to evenly disperse the candy bits. The shakes here are more molten ice cream milk in viscosity which is problematic causing the candy bits to all congregate at the bottom. I'm still giving this a 4 out of 5 because I do recommend this place. If they ever redo the shakes to be thicker and more frozen in nature, it would elevate the Americana experience in Wellington even moreso.

The decor is tastefully minimal and the positioning (by the cinema) probably brings the crowds during the evening. I've tried the steak, the ribs and of course the chicken and I have to say the meals were good, but the chicken was superb. The service was good every time, and while it doesn't quite reflect the american service culture the staff were friendly and quick. I would recommend it for a simple meal after a movie or just a visit on a night out.

I had hogget taco and my partner had pork taco. Kinda small, and not presented that well. Meat looked dry.

Although not sure that two thin slices of nectarine really qualify as top billing. Amazing chocolate honey drizzle cake. Mixed messages from staff. Some very nice, some dismissive. So 50/50 on everything. Would go back if friends wanted to but would make that choice on my own.
