Was at Mama’s Cafe last week when I was in Shillong! And let me tell you, the food was 10/10. Hospitality was super good! It’s a place you should definitely visit. Their biryanis are best selling! The other foods I tried was really good too. Worth every penny! Highly recommended

This place serves a wide range of cuisines, We’ve ordered Biryani which was good, chicken tikka was moist and tender, wok box ( I chose noodles, chicken and schezwan gravy) which was also satisfying , cold coffee was superior in quality however the Mexican fries were loaded with too much of mayo, mustard and ketchup, would have preferred it to be slightly minimal. The ambience is likeable with spacious rest rooms. Overall, it was a good experience. Will definitely visit again.

This place had a peaceful, charming & vintage feel to it. The food was quite good and had a homemade feel to it. The calming effects of Earl grey tea was amazing! Excellent service and a polite waiter. Would definitely visit it again

Loved the food, there was live music going on the ambiance was great, fresh flowers on each table, and cute corners for pictures. The portion is usually 1 serving so order accordingly.
