Very nice home-style place. Relatively large portions. Food is like you returned back to your lovely grandmother and she gave your favourite borstch with home made bread. Atmosphere is quite and homy.

I celebrated my 70th year birthday in A Yiddishe Mame Restaurant with over 30 people of friends and family. It is very inviting and family friendly restaurant. The food was very delicious and with a lot of variety. The service was great, staff was friendly, courteous and professional. Definitely would recommend celebrating any occasions there or visiting just for dinner.

Overall the food was great! I really liked meat platter. The smoked duck and the veal tongue were very tender. The mustard sauce was pretty strong, so be gentle when dipping it. The "chicken neck" was my favorite! If you love chicken skin, you would appreciate the crispy outside and minced and juicy chicken inside. I wasn't too much of a fan of the fried chicken liver dish.it was a bit too oily in my opinion. Might need something refreshing to pair with it. Love the restaurant in general! Would recommend :)
