I truly enjoyed Mama Delia and will be back. Exceptionally gracious service. Food that makes me miss the deservedly starred Porto, food that is thoughtful, fun and absolutely delicious (especially anchovies, croquetas and the pork ear tacos). Wine list well conceived and full of unicorns if a bit pricey. Service thoughtful, gracious and well paced. Only knock, sometimes food was hot not hot but warm and cold not cold but cool. Room is absolutely gorgeous. Worthy of a visit.

The food was absolutely amazing, the carne asada was literal perfection and so were the ropa vieja plantains, the cochinita pibil and the ceviche. They were able to accommodate our large party of 10 on short notice and the service was wonderful- thank you Chris!!!
