Always a great experience when we go to Mama Kwans. Our second year going around Halloween time. We thought the decor was great last year...this year was even better. Food was excellent. Staff was fun and definitely into the spirit of the season. Cool Tshirts for sale. Our daughter loved the Frankenstein mug too.

Excellent! We went for lunch in early Oct. Place was decorated super cute for halloween & staff were in costumes. Everyone was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the deconstructed tacos + hawaiian pork -- so so good. I wish we lived here so we could get it regularly. Will def be coming back when we're in town!

You definitely want to get there early because waiting it's part of their lifestyle! But at least there's a little patio to hang out on as well as the bar area. Service is great. The people are wonderful that work there. The food is excellent every time we've been! The only problem we have is deciding whether we want to do lunch there or dinner there because the menu is slightly varied. It is somewhat child friendly, however it's definitely geared towards a little bit older crowd due to the bar atmosphere, however, I would not hesitate to take my own grandchildren there with me to eat! Friend of mine from work and I eat here at least once a month when we get the time and schedules to match up to go.

We went on a Saturday night with four adults and one child. We only had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. We chose it because we had a kid with us and they have a children’s menu. He didn’t like the food that was offered, but he is a picky eater. If I had my granddaughter with me, she would have loved the different sodas they offered for kids. But this particular child doesn’t like soda, so what I thought he would really have fun with he didn’t. For the rest of us, our food was good. But it wasn’t fabulous. I got the blackened tuna tacos, but I’ve had a lot better elsewhere. The portion sizes were enough that a couple of us took some food home with us. But the leftovers were just fine. The atmosphere was kind of fun and it was busy so I know that a lot of people like it. But for me it’s one of those places where “been there, done it”, and I probably would choose another place next time.

We went here after my sister and her family raved about it and recommended it, there were also great reviews online. Service was terrible, our waitress never came back to check on us until the end of our meal. I had to waive her over once during our meal, I swear she was avoiding us. Every request from us was a nuisance for her it seemed.
My wife got a soda water with lime and it tasted terrible, so she didn’t drink it. Set it to the edge of the table with our empty appetizer plates and they all just sat there the entire meal. I guess they don’t clear dishes. Another waitress brought our food out and I requested service from the bus boy as well.
The food was good, but nothing to write home about or recommend to others. The fish tacos were definitely not “world famous” I did like the DIY concept they use though. It made for 3 good sized tacos. The fish was a bit salty, and nothing about it was blackened like we ordered. Just heavily seasoned.
