Mama Lor - Melbourne

Maybe it’s just crowded because of Valentine’s but we could hardly get the attention of the waiting staff. We were seated on a table without a buzzer to call their attention and it is so hard to ask for service.

Excellent, authentic, delicious Filipino dishes. We will be back for more!

Each bite was a delight, and the presentation just blew us away, the variety of desserts and the home made ice cream ube. The kakanin and puto cheese was a crowd-pleaser! Highly recommended! Thanks to the wonderful staff especially to Renalyn and Ricky.

Great food, friendly staff, very clean restaurant, serving sizes good value for money

Food was good. Table was a mess and not cleared before desserts came out. Shouldn’t have to ask. No excuse….

Food was delicious, service was fast and great. Worth going back again…

Lechon is good when available. Food comes out slow. Rice came out first and sat on the table for 20 mins before any dishes arrived to accompany it.

It was very pleasant and nice atmosphere the price is good

Good food and service as always. Desserts are on point and the serving sizes are generous.

Yummy foods and worth it. My family were very full.

I was quite pleased with the service provided during my visit. The staff demonstrated remarkable patience, which enhanced the overall experience. Alam mong Hindi toxic ang working environment nila (my observation, at least). The ambiance was inviting and comfortable. Additionally, I appreciated the wide selection of breads and pastries on display. I believe it's a place worth visiting for anyone looking to enjoy a great meal.

Authentic Cebu! Food is great every time we visit. A bit pricey but still worth it

Team members/ staff not friendly. Lack of customer service few tables not clean and clear after dining. Staff are busy doing their task at the back of the house

Incredible food, fast service, so many options and all authentic Filipino food. Cannot wait to come back with family.

the food was yummy but had to wait 25 minutes for them to take our order.

It was my first time to eat Filipino's cuisine and it was amazing!! The food overall was absolutely delicious. Will i come again? Definitely yes yes!!!

Good service and the food portion was very generous. Family friendly venue.

i used to come here all the time and love the food here. but we waited almost 45mins for the food. we ordered the sisig which was way too salty, and the sinigang i love but a bit too sour. we couldnt finish these. the pare was good. i used to love Mama Lor so much and tell everyone about it but i dont think i will be coming back.

Nice food and the staff are so friendly specially Kyla🤗

Everything was great. Food is amazing and ambiance is really good

Was good value the flavoured rice was yummy and heaps all round

Dinning experience was excellent We ordered Kare kare it was Perfect for Sisig and Bangus Sisig its a bit salty for us Chicken Lomi not that bad, But overall we were satisfied .

First time at this establishment and we found it amazing. Food was perfectly cooked and presented, staff were lovely but busy. We will definitely be back.

Waiters could be more focused on tables to see when customers want to order.

Ambiance is great, service is excellent, food is delicious, value for money is amazing! worth the 2 hours travel!

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back soon!

Great place with really good food. Authentic Filipino food. Great.

I like the welcoming environment and delicious main meals and sweets👌

The food was great! Highly recommend...will come back again in the future 😁

Family friendly restaurant, with good selection of foods for all!!!

Most of the food we had is delicious and we cannot fault anything so well done to the chef you did a very good job!

Awesome place for home cooked Filipino food and desserts. We recommend nilagang baka, sisig and chicken bacolod.

Its was good and food quality is quiet good compared to other filipino restaurants

Ambience and food are good. Will visit again next time.

It's a bit of hike to travel to Mama Lor's, but so worth it. The restaurant is lovely casual atmosphere. Thank you making an awesome Mother's Day :)

Wonderful service. Friendly staff. Food amazing as always. Highly recommend

Food took forever to get to us. We had to cancel one of the dishes as we were finishing up. A couple items we ordered were already out of stock. Service was lovely nonetheless

Very nice restaurant, service was good even on a busy evening. Food was very yummy until I ordered the pancit noodles, just didn't taste fresh in my opinion and being my last dish ordered left a sour taste in my mouth. Otherwise enjoyed the other meals and will try again

Good food. Truly a taste of Filipino food here in Melbourne.

Amazing customer service, guy sweeping the door was very lovely

Great food. Atmosphere was lovely and lively. We all had a great time

Let's hope this was a one-off but what a shame. We really wanted to love Mama Lor but the food couldn't make up for the noise and service. We're talking foodcourt at Christmas time can't hear yourself think noise levels. I saw one other couple ask to move but I don't think their new table faired any better. The restaurant was jammed packed with families and toddlers - every table had a different mobile phone on it playing some cartoon or show on loudspeaker, also competing with the restaurant's own music. Is poor dining behaviour Mama Lor's fault? Probably not, but it was Valentine's Day! Manage your bookings and run a family session early or think about different ways to seat and structure patrons. This aside, mains came out before entrees (we would have been fine with all together), and drinks didn't come out at all until we followed them up (it was bottled beer not a cocktail that needed mixing). Highlight of the night was the Kangkong chips.

The food was amazing and the ambience was good. Plus, the staff were really friendly.

they use to have good food, but this recent experirnce...the food has gone bad

My friends who came from Knoxfield love the food you served. Their first comment was ‘The dishes in the menu looks interesting’ They really enjoyed the dishes we ordered. They especially love the Crispy Pata (roasted pork knuckle) n Hipon as Gata (the banana prawn in coconut milk).

We love the BBQ skewers. It's one of the dishes we always order every time we eat at Mama Lor. The staff are friendly. It's great they can accommodate big groups. Love their bakery section.

It was a very pleasant experience. I will definitely come back

no bar service (no bar staff?), only beer, juice, softdrinks and water. a few dishes we ordered were not available but that can happen. overall, a good experience

Awesome food with a large menu and very kind service. Highly recommend.

Food was nice well presented value for money worth a try.
