brianthedog Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Thinking of trying this this week. Any more reviews or menu updates? How far is it from Broadfield pub? Or should we goto la Scala? Not been myself yet - it's about a 5 minute walk from the Broadfield; heading towards town on the same side of the road. It's just past the two churches down there.

moopind Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Went to Mama Mia last night for the first time. I think the name is a bit misleading - you kind of think "Mamma Mia" and therefore Italian. Maybe there's a joke in there? Anyway, it was really good. I'd had a poor first experience at Seasons which used to be there (when the waiter plonked a bottle of wine and a corkscrew on the table - honestly!). This was a different story. The host was really friendly, but not annoyingly intrusive - he made us welcome and made us laugh. I think there's still a niche for that kind of atmosphere and service on the London Road/Abbesydale Road stretch (though some others on that stretch are also friendly). The food was really good - the closest thing in Sheffield to dining in a small restaurant in Spain (I've never been to South America, which I know is the influence in here) - really nice quality Patatas Bravas as a (free) pre-starter. We also had excellent scallops cooked in a great sauce, a lovely chorizo in cider and mains of a fish stew and the estofado. The standard was really good. I also had their take on a crème brûlée, with some flaming booze on top. It was lovely too. The wine list was very reasonably-priced and heavy on the South American wines. Very pleasantly surprised. If you are looking for Spanish/Latin American food, I'd say give it a go. I think we'll be back. I still think they should have chosen a different name, but there you go!

Mama_Mia Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Thank for your feedback. We are very please that you enjoyed your visit, and hope to see you again. The name of the restaurant, "Mama Mia", yes, could be Italian, but in Spanish the meaning of Mama Mia is, "my mum", and this restaurant is dedicated to our mum, that was a enthusiastic chef. We, all at Mama Mia, are looking forward to see you again. Francisco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DumDom Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Really fancy this place, anyone know if it is BYO and what price corkage, although I know that they will sell good South American wines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthedog Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 No idea about BYO, but I looked at the menu on the door recently and it looks fantastic - exactly my type of food . Will be going soon so will report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlic Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 We went to Mama Mia just before Christmas and really enjoyed it. Nice friendly atmosphere and very good food. I had the fish stew (can't remember what it was called on the menu) and it was really delicious. We''l definately try it again some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
