The food was good and the drinks as well. The view was everything. I'm definitely coming back.

Great place for young crowd . If your looking for quiet , and romantic I dont suggest it BECAUSE it does get loud. The music is spanish and it is great . If you just getting to know someone no not a good place BECAUSE it does get loud up in there. Restaurant is nice and beautifully set up loved the lighting. BEAUTIFUL places in there to take pictures . Food was good. I would def come again not with older people though or someone I'm trying to get to know. When you walk out the restaurant, theres a BEAUTIFUL skyline of Manhattan if u look closely..

Music was too loud, had to ask three different people to please move us to another table and to ask the DJ to lower the music. The service was not that great, and prices were too high. I also told the waiter about my allergies and the food had the ingredient I am allergic to.

We went to eat Mother's Day lunch and the music was so loud we couldn't even talk to each other. I'm sorry! I'm Dominican and I love my music but I didn't think we were going to a party or to a nightclub at 1:30 in the afternoon; we went out to eat lunch as a family. The food was good but extremely expensive for a buffet. The vibe was good if that kind of noise is your thing. The waitress (who was also annoyed by the noise) had to speak into our ears so we could hear what she was saying, that was not fun at all. Very disappointed.

The place is excelente ! But on Mother’s Day the menu was horrible ! Y de verdad really expensive para su menú el servicio no es nd amable y son algo descuidados en la atención simple no vuelvo a ese lugar

good food. with a great atmosphere.

Today's price isn't yesterday's price meaning pre-covid and post covid prices are way higher and much different. And this is the first time I saw a receipt with the words "extra tip" meaning after you already "tipped" . The food and vibe is good but the place leaves a bad taste in your mouth because the drinks are over-priced to run up the bill. The staff and service was good but the business antics really does a disservice to the cooks in kitchen and the staff working their butts off for the overall good of the restaurant. Overall, the place is decent but bring your $$$ wallet because it's definitely overpriced. Give this a try good food, good music, good staff but that's where the goodness stops.

We were a party of 6, waited about 1 hour to be seated.Then another hour just for drinks and cold appetizers!We ordered our food and after 2 1/2 hours just sitting we just got up and left because they still did not bring the food.We were there a total of almost 4 hours and no apology, no nothing! They really need better management!To bad; place has potential: this is a definite 0 - will not return/recommend

I loved Mamajuana, beautiful place, delicious drinks, amazing food, excellent music with DJ, I recommend it.

TERRIBLE PLACE. WAITER WAS SO RUDE TO MY WIFE. DID NOT WANT TO TAKE OUR ORDERS AND WHEN WE ASKED FOR A MENU LIKE THREE TIMES HE SAID “WHAT TO YOU EVEN WANT TO EAT?!?!” FIRST HE TELLS US WE CANT ORDER THEN HE PROCEEDS TO PRESSURE US TO HURRY UP AND ORDER AS HE DID NOT WANT TO KEEP COMING BACK TO OUR TABLE. FOOD TAKES 3 HOURS TO ARRIVE. THEY CONSTANTLY TELL YOU TO BUY DRINKS AND SHOVE THE DRINK MENU DOWN YOUR THROAT. YOU DONT GET TO DECIDE HOW MUCH I DECIDE TO TIP YOUR WAITERS. ITS BEYOND ME HOW YOU AUTOMATICALLY CHARGE 20 PERCENT WHEN IT WASNT EVEN WORTH IT FOR US. WE SHOULD GET TO DECIDE HOW MUCH TO TIP YOUR WAITERS MAYBE THATS WHY THEY ARE THE WAY THEY ARE. RUDE, COCKY, AND HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SERVICE. I NEVER MET SUCH A NASTY WAITER BEFORE.
