    Lovely restaurant with cute decor and great service. Large venue and service was quick and prepared. Went with a couple of friends and everything was delicious. Did some share plates across group- various pastas, branzino, and vegetables sides. Really loved the pasta dishes and cocktail options were great as well. Overall great experience and recommend

    Great service, great food and great wine selection ! Our favorite Italian restaurant when we stay in Tribeca.

    Booked a reservation - table wasn't ready so we sat at the bar. The bartender was so nice and accommodating. Fernando is the BEST server. So sweet and patient. The service is great - everyone is open to answering questions and very hands-on in curating the best dining experience. I had the tuna, the beef, rigatoni (bolognese) and a plain Margherita pizza.. yum. Portions can be deceiving - they are small but mighty! And they might have the best Tiramisu in Manhattan.

    5 star prices with 4.5 star service and flavor. Interior is okay though can feel a bit too cozy. Service is great beginning to end and all the servers were kind and accommodating. Best dishes: truffle pizza and burrata with shrimp and mango salsa. The sundae is where it's at though. Don't sleep on salted caramel ice cream!

    We arrived early and enjoyed a glass of wine outside, the place is so classy! Upstairs, we were seated by the window and loved the beautiful ambience. The wine was perfectly crisp, and the angel hair pasta was absolutely delicious. My favorite detail? A little stool just for my purse! Such a thoughtful touch you don't see in most restaurants. Can't wait to come back and make a reservation for next time!

    Come a Capri Focaccia Al Tartufo! We also got the Brussels sprouts.  for dinner I had the cavatelli with crab meat- it was great!

    Absolutely loved this place! The food and service were both outstanding. Our waiter--who was from Mexico--made the experience even better with great conversation, thoughtful recommendations, and attentive service throughout the night (plus a complimentary dessert, which was such a nice touch). It's a beautiful spot and surprisingly busy for a Tuesday, which says a lot. I highly recommend it for a dinner with friends or family--you won't be disappointed.

    Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Every single dish we had was better than the next. We had the burrata, beef carpaccio, truffle pizza, branzino, pastas and steak. Not a single dish was anything less than spectacular. The wine our water recommended was wonderful and we ordered copious bottles. The service was some of the best I have ever had and the ambiance made my birthday dinner one of the best ever. Not a singular complaint about our experience at Mamo and we will all be back soon.

    We had a truly excellent experience this evening at Mamo. Giorgi was our host & amplified our hospitality experience to the next level. He gave us such specific care and service, it made our visit so special . We were offered some excellent white wine selections from Italy and my favorite, a Chablis from France, followed by some excellent recommended, starters and entrées. We particularly loved the Come a Capri & Melanzane alla parmigiana. The La nostra Cacio & Pepe is not to be missed & we will be dreaming about it until we return. The Polletto arrosto con verdure di stagione was excellent & I especially loved the vegetables served with it. The dessert menu looked excellent, and we indulged in the crème brûlée. It was excellent and we cannot wait to bring family and friends back. Thank you again for the wonderful staff at Mamo for making our visit so wonderful.

    Perfect Italian bread, olive oil nice and peppery, amazing salame, tapenade, a proper pepper mill

    A beautiful fall day, where to eat near Canal Street. We went around the corner at West Broadway and discovered Mamo. Small, lovely, friendly, reasonably priced...and spectacular food! The genial and efficient hostess offered a choice of seating. Near the bar at the back, we could admire the Italian-movie-themed art and the immaculate tables. Seared tuna included a lemon/olive oil dressing to die for. Perfect Italian bread with olive oil, tapenade and luscious Italian salame, followed by penne al'amatriciana for me and penne bolognese for my companion were generous and really yummy. The crispy bacon and smoky tomato sauce on my plate were amazing, the bolognese very creamy, both dishes well dressed with pecorino. We had no room for dessert, but either tiramisu or affogato would have been perfect. I'm looking for an excuse to travel downtown and return, the roast chicken is calling to me.

    The vibes in this place are amazing- as soon as you walk in you feel like you're in a luxury film with an old movie posters and candle lit staircase. The food was okay- I wasn't very impressed with the prices or the pastas (I had the bolognese) and it was OK. Fun for a birthday though (brought out a dessert with a sparkler)

    Maria J.

    This place had such an awesome vibe especially for a date night. I went with my best girl friend so it was also perfect for a girls night. Food was good drinks were even better. Can't wait to return!

    Outside of being a Victoria secret model's headquarters this place is making its name in the city. It survived the pandemic and that's how long I've known about it and only tried it yesterday but deeply regretted not going sooner. I ordered the Julius salad it was very refreshing, the margarita pizza was cheesy soft and tasty so good I had to break my no soda rule and ordered a coke then I had the rigatoni that right there was very filling and saucy and damn good by the time I had dessert I felt like an Oompa Loompa .. the tiramisu was creaming powdery at the top and chilled like revenge. A guy named Fernando was the waiter he was very nice and attentive. At first I felt that Mamo is too busy for all of their customers but things turned around once we got seated. The decor gives Miami jr Cipriani downtown little sister I like it it's sexy upstairs is vibrant I like the music too. I'll definitely come back.

    Dessert - best Tiramisu I've ever had and a sundae

    Is Mamo more of a brunch or dinner vibe?

    Hi Areeje, A simple answer it's both. Evenings are a lot more vibrant and energetic, while brunch/lunches are relaxing and perfect for catching up with your friends, family or business acquaintances. All the best. MAMO team

    My wife and I took our kids (10 and 16 year old boys) to this place on our last evening in NYC. We…read morewere looking for a place that had a nice ambiance and good food. Ambiance: This place has a nice ambiance, definitely very "New York" -- dark (you can't see how dirty the floor is) and loud music (maybe too loud). We sat upstairs (we had a reservation) and of all the people on the top there was a party of 4 (us), a party of 8 (all dudes celebrating something) and the rest of the tables were on a DATE - which I thought was funny. Service: We were served by Ann-Marie who was so delightful. She was kind, super nice, and took the time to speak to us (which is basically how we figured out she wasn't a native New York City person). She gave us good food suggestions and we were very happy with our selection. Food: Here is what we ordered * Steak Frites: My two boys got the steak frites and I have to say the steak was awesome! I had a bite of each of theirs and they each ordered it differently (one Medium Rare/Medium and one Medium) and they both were prepared PERFECTLY. The fries were overflowing. * Caeser Salad with Salmon: My wife got the salad with Salmon (they only have a few salad options) and she enjoyed it. * Prawn and Crab Risotto: I got this and I have to say it was VERY bland. I wouldn't get this if you are looking for taste. I had to put salt and pepper on it to make it have any semblance of taste. Value/Price: I would say this is not over priced but it is not cheap either...bill is attached. I would recommend it to folks who are looking for a good place to either go out on a date or a family type meal.

Service was good. We had the fried chicken Benedict and the crab cake Benedict. I was a bit confused when I saw that each Benedict dish only had one poached egg - shouldn't it always be two? I guess that's shrinkflation (plus inflation) for you. That bent said, the crab cake was actually really big and filling. The side of potatoes were really delicious. Would I come back for brunch again? Very unlikely. But, it does seem like a pretty "safe choice" if you need a last minute reservation for a group.

Cocktails are made with various types of rum and ingredients like grapefruit, maraschino, wormwood amaro, falernum, thyme, Assam tea, spiced lime, allspice, coconut, cucumber, nutmeg, sour orange. All the drinks keep with the tropical, fruity taste with a hint of spice. They are also broken up into categories (dry land = no alcohol, shallows = average amount of alcohol, and abyss (larger amounts of alcohol). The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders. I had the French fries with kimchi ranch, which were underwhelming. Bartenders were cool and kept the drinks coming. I got in immediately without an issue or a wait, but it was right after a snowstorm. I've seen some people struggle to get in or have a long wait.

The wait staff weren't super attentive nor super warm, but they were efficient when we asked for water refills, etc. There was ample standing room at the bar while we waited for our friends, but the table/booth that we sat at was super narrow, I was knocking knees with my friend all night and generally felt squished.

The Amazake Kick was balanced with just the right amount of sweetness, making it a fantastic starter. For food, we ordered the scotch egg, sliders, and fish and chips. The scotch egg was solid, though the sausage layer felt slightly dry this time around. The sliders were great, while the fish and chips were decent--nicely crispy, but the fish needed a bit more flavor seasoning.
