    Unfortunately it was very average. The menu reads as mediterranean and looks good but the execution lacked any authenticity. Nice space, nice staff etc. Just overall a bit underwhelming.

    Booked MAM for Bday celebration and I must say, we had an amazing time. We went for lots of sharing plates, a mix of cold and hot starters plus a few mains like the oxtails, octopus, prawns and more, so everyone could try a bit of everything. The food was amazing, really tasty and full of Mediterranean flavours. Every dish came out fresh and packed with flavour and the sharing style made it perfect for group dinner. The best part of the night was definitely the DJ. The music created such a fun vibe for a Bday celebration, great music, good food, drinks and being able to catch up with friends all at the same time. Service was great too, special shout out to the whole team, they were amazing and looked after us so well throughout the evening. Would definitely come back and would recommend it for celebration or just a fun dinner with friends 🤗

    10 of us and no one else so the service could only be good. We mentioned that we were short on time and this was well taken on board and we experienced a quick turnaround between starters and mains. The food was amazing and we asked our server to compliment the Chef. Lovely setting, will be using MAM for business meetings again.

    We were seated quickly with solid hospitality. Recommendations were helpful and the food was delivered fresh from the kitchen. All the dishes that we ordered were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend the octopus and the sea bass. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing.

    The server was helpful and was able to provide more gluten free options that were on the menu, in my case the steak could be made gluten free by cooking the chips in the oven.

    We were not expecting a buffet as it wasn’t clear that over 35 people would make it a buffet not a choice of dishes. None of the dishes were labled. Several salads all looked like couscous and staff couldn’t confirm ingredients. At 2 pm they were not really ready although meat was cut in the warmer. Chefs didn’t have full range of starters out and we had to wait a few minutes. It seemed that they were confused about whether they could give the starters as advertised on the original menu. Food itself was reasonable but not memorable. Christmas was a difficult time if management instructions weren’t clear. I mentioned the labling of food to management so customers could decide if it was suitable- not only for allergies. All in all- disappointing.

    Food was nice and reasonably priced but service was very slow, even though the restaurant was quiet and there was not many other customers. Servers were all friendly and nice.

    I had such a lovely time celebrating my birthday! The food was beautifully presented, full of flavour, made with care and using quality ingredients. The menu offers a great balance of comforting mediterranean favourites, some with a slight infusion/ twist and maybe more refined. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience more special for my birthday. The atmosphere was cosy yet offering a slight edgy touch of class (uniqueness) with music to my taste. I don't usually tend to write reviews but I didn't want to let this restaurant go unnoticed by someone not entirely sure about making a visit. I've never enjoyed a meal without fault to the food ( maybe I'm picky) this place is really worth a visit. Thank you MAM!

    Unfortunately this was the worst meal we have eaten in a restaurant in quite a while. The fries we ordered were limp and a whiter shade of pale. They came ten minutes before the rest of the food. The Greek salad was eighty per cent cucumber and was served with no seasoning or dressing. I asked for dressing and was brought oil but nothing else. The bulgur wheat and pitta bread were inedible. We only managed to eat the distinctly odd grilled aubergine and chicken shish kebab. We never complain but on this occasion we did and, eventually, were given five pounds off our bill. To sum up: no care was taken in the preparation of any of the food and we really wondered about the competence of the chef.

    We’re truly sorry that our service fell short during your visit. This is not the experience we want for our guests, and we will address this with our team to do better moving forward. We would love the opportunity to make things right and hope you’ll consider giving us another chance.
