   Nice room - great décor & atmosphere. The food is Chinese & fine. Nothing fancy & decent portions. We went for Sunday lunch & all 5 of us happy. I had fish as main course & three nice pieces, which is more than you usually get nowadays. The service was efficient, but the room was full, so a little slow, but no complaint. The deserts were nice & solid, which again is not always what you see. The chocolate crunch bar was so good we got an extra to take home. I've been before, but always at night & first lunch experience, & will return. So, a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars.

   I went to Mama Yo for my birthday for the first time with three friends and we were all very impressed by both the food and bar menus, the service, the ambiance and everything we ordered was delicious! Was great value for cost as well; I will definitely be returning soon!

   Faaaaabulous! Staff are an absolute credit to the place could not have been more accommodating, we were really well looked after they even let us sit in a window section they had closed to suit my mams sight impairment they were just lovely. The food and drinks are amazing and the restaurant is just gorgeous it’s by far the nicest chinese restaurant in Ireland can’t wait to go back

   The restaurant itself is very cool inside. Decor is nice, and has an almost Americanized Asian vibe. For food, we had prawn and chicken wontons & duck spring rolls to start. Both were tasty. For mains, we had claypot chicken and Mongolian fillet beef. Again, both mains were tasty but overall the food was not spectacular. It just felt like fairly standard Chinese fare, but at an inflated price. I also think the food menus need to be more descriptive about what is actually being served in your dish. As for drinks, I think the place misses a trick by the distinct lack of authentic Asian beers available. Personally, having an Asian style beer is part of the experience of eating Asian food Only Tiger is available on draught. The service was poor. I felt it was purely functional, in that the waitress just brought things to and from the table. There was nothing personable about the service. We were also not offered a drink when we were seated and looking through the menu. I had to ask if we could order drinks when she was taking our food order. Lastly, I had a voucher to pay for part of the bill which could not be done at the table, it could only be done at the entrance to the restaurant. So we had to go there and queue to pay before we could leave. Overall, i have to say that there is lots of Style, but less substance to Mama Yo. I probably won't be recommending Mama Yo to a friend or be returning for another visit unfortunately.

   We were sitting near the tree, the table was in a perfect spot, the spring rolls and the beef black pepper are amazing.

    Overall it was a great experience - good, venue and service. The only thing to note was there was lots of small flys around our table.
