"Tutto molto buono..qualita' del pesce ottima.piatti belli ed abbondanti"

"Locale accogliente, personale molto cortese, buona la qualità del cibo. Sconsiglio prendere l'antipasto da 8 portate, o almeno per quelli presi da noi pur essendo molto piacevoli, hanno purtroppo successivamente causato problemi spiacevoli. Sarà stato un caso ma probabilmente tra i vari antipasti, qualcosa non era di qualità o forse conservato male. Speriamo si sia trattato di un caso isolato. Altra nota negativa, la toilette maschile era priva di chiave e parzialmente danneggiato. Comunque torneremo e prenderemo cibi più mirati a seconda delle disponibilità del giorno."

"Locale molto carino con pescheria annessa. Piatti molto curati e porzioni soddisfacenti e posso dire, finalmente! La presentazione dei piatti è molto accattivante e ti invita non solo a mangiare ma a condividere! Pesce freschissimo e di ottima qualità per cui tranquillamente prendete i crudi. La cheesecake era fatta con lo yogurt e non mi é piaciuta molto ma sono gusti. Consigliatissimo!"

"Ottimo ristorante “ Mama Fish “ situato nella zona centrale del quartiere Centocelle, esattamente in via dei Castani a due passi dalla piazza dei Mirti, molto confortevole modo raggiungibile con la metro linea A stazione Mirti. Ristorante non è molto grande però è ben organizzato e accogliente. Abbiamo prenotato un tavolo per cena di venerdì sera, senza nessuna attesa ci siamo accomodati. La ragazza che ci ha serviti è stata molto gentile e professionale. Abbiamo preso per l’antipasto Selezione carpacci marinati misti e tar tar di salmone, entrambi freschi e ben conditi, come primi Spaghetti con le vongole e Paccheri cacio e fighi, cottura della pasta perfettamente al dente, dopo una frittura di calamari e moscardini, per concludere la cena un bel sorbetto al limone e tiramisù al pistacchio, tutti piatti sono ben fatti e molto freschi. Ci torneremo assolutamente."
