    Lovely place! Went there for our friend's birthday. Food was great and we didn't have to wait for a long time. We even got a dessert plate for the table. Amazing!

    Wonderful staff and great food! Best food we have had so far in The Hague. We had the garlic butter spare ribs and the El Mama special burger. Both were excellent 👍 The owner and staff are very attentive and kind. Thank you for the lovely time.

    Restaurant is only one month young. On a busy street in the center of town. About 12 tables and large windows to look at the outside. They have lots of experience cooking the food for they already have another restaurant. It tastes great and the place looks nice. The staff still needs to get used to this place for our starter arrived together with our main dish and the desert took quite a while. Al in all a great experience.

    Awesome spot! The friendly staff, the courses... Everything just sublime. The spare ribs were juicy, fall off the bone tender. All the steaks were legit. Pro tip: medium rare is the way to go. The nachos were great. Just the whole thing. And yes, they claim it's HALAL. Please be careful, because they also serve Pork ribs. Enjoy your meal.

    Loved the experience. Food was absolutely delicious. It was worth the price, and the atmosphere was amazing. Ambience was awesome. I absolutely recommend this restaurant and will definitely go there again myself. Note: They do not accept Visa cards, and I think that's the only downside to them, since almost all International tourists carry only those. That's the only reason why I stop short of giving 5 stars.

    Wow!!! New barbecue restaurant. Everything is good here. Place looks very modern and trendy. Seems more like a Brazilian steakhouse than an Egyptian grill room, they've done a great job it has the perfect city vibe. There's plenty of waitresses so service is fast, friendly. You don't have to wait although there's lots of customers. The manager/host Maurice is a great host. Professional and warm personality. The grill and kitchen work on full speed, these cooks know what they're doing. Impressive. The more because my burger lunchmenu with angus burger, fries and softdrinks is €12,50. Its nice the lunch menu still is on when i visit at 18.45 and doesn't stop at 16.00 like in other restaurants! Okay, how's the food? Alright! It comes fast, I'm not sitting 5 minutes and it's there. Burger has lovely grill taste, cooked well and juicy. All the burger points are right: Burger, bun, sauce and toppings are all spot on. Only thing is I do prefer the bacon more crispy. After this Maurice offers me a beautiful piece of house-made heesecake.I gladly accept, yes please. It's nice, not too sugary sweet or heavy. It has beautiful decoration bravo. Details matter! I'm not surprised guests are pouring in, this place deserves it's succes fully. I can highly recommend this place, go visit yourself! Mind you, a lot of reviews I see are about the Rijswijk restaurant. This seems more like a fastfood place but I cannot speak for this because I did not go there. But the restaurant at the Grote Marktstraat in Den Haag offers great food in great place for a good price. Keep calm and curry on.

    Wow! Super nice! Long time had nothing so tasty. Spareribs came right of the bone. They brought extra garlic sauce without having to ask for it. At the end of dinner they gave us a free dessert. Very nice we sure gonna go here again.

    The food here is both big on flavour and portion size. The owner and staff are generous both with the food and the hospitality. Come here with an empty stomach and you’re most certainly in for a good time.

  • 5/5 Rizwan Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing experience. Really delicious food with a very generous serving size, but the best thing was the amazing service by the entire team, especially Mr Maurice. Highly recommended and will visit again (many times) for sure. PS: food is Halal

  • 5/5 Tabitha M. 11 months ago on Google
    I went with a friend, the service and the food was absolutely amazing. The servers were super nice and friendly. During the nice atmosphere and sitting outside, we totally forgot to finish our food and they politely offered to re heat it for us. To top it off we got offered a free dessert. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!!

  • 5/5 Erick S. 1 year ago on Google
    The best hamburger in Den Haag! These guys know to cook meat on fire! 🔥 Staff very attentive and fair price! Perfect place for meat lovers!

  • 5/5 H K. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here twice. Both times the owner was onsite managing the whole scene, and talking with all the customers, you can tell he really cares about this place and that customers are happy. Servers are on point, you can see the kitchen from the table and the cooks are all working hard. The veal garlic ribs are amazing, the BBQ ones were good too but get the garlic ones they were so damn tasty. Would highly recommend and will go back.

    The food experience is beyond amazing here. Omg I just had the best spare rib eyes ever. So juicy, beefy, soft and perfectly smoked. I loved every bite. And the staff is the sweetest. They're all so adorable. Totally recommend

    On our way to a concert, we passed by this restaurant and just walked in. We did not check the reviews, we were just craving ribs. The food was just what we expected served with two sides of salad and fries. The service was really outstanding. I can’t remember this amount of hospitality (FYI: I dine in a lot of high end restaurants). I highly recommend this place. They serve at a good pace, so you can easily combine it with a visit to the Paard or cinema.

    These were the best ribs I've had in a long while, and the fastest from order too! (Less than 10-15 minutes). The mood inside was happy too with Colombian music playing at the time. It really made me feel back at home in Aruba. The manager/owner and staff were also super lovely and very attentive. Thank you! -Marcelo

  • 5/5 Uma G. 6 months ago on Google
    Absolutely lovely! Food is delicious and abundant, and the atmosphere ( the staff, the music, the location) makes you love the dinner experience even more. A big shout out to Talitha for her kindness and great food advices. I will definitely go back ;)

    Amazing food, amazing staff. Been here 4 times and have always been surprised by how friendly the staff is. The food is in big amounts, not so expensive and it is a fast service. 100% recommend.

  • 5/5 Ashraf S. 7 months ago on Google
    Great steaks and service. The service was very quick, and the staff were nice. The only problem was that the tables were very close, and you don't have much privacy. Overall, an excellent option

  • 5/5 Sofia c. 9 months ago on Google
    Delicious lamb chops! They serve you 4 pieces; and the taste is amazing !! My husband had the steak, and it was also Great! I am Latina, so, I really liked the music they play! Lots of joyful music. And the service is lovely, everybody was so warm and welcoming. I highly recommend you visit this place ♥️

  • 5/5 Eddie T. 11 months ago on Google
    The rib is just fantastic. We ordered the garlic butter but didn’t even need to dip. Its delicious on its own. Ribeye was at a little too rare for me though we ordered medium rare, but still delicious. Love the coleslaw too. Service staff is amazing and also this older guy who signal we and told me where the toilet the moment I stood up. Wash it all down with some good old Heineken and merlot. Will be back here if I ever come back to this part of the world.

  • 5/5 Rio W. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely one of the best ribs restaurants in town. I've been a few times and they always deliver (I definitely recommend the bbq ribs and the garlic ribs). The portions are good. And the desserts are nice as well. Staff is friendly and service is quite fast.

    The interior was very clean and excellently decorated , the personnel were very kind and smiling and above all , all the food we ate was very tasty almost cooked to perfection.

  • 5/5 Shen L. 1 year ago on Google
    I must say, I didn’t expect the flavours too be that good, the service was quick and the guy was really attentive. Cocktails were okay, but again the meat was smokey and delicious.

  • 5/5 Joera K. 1 year ago on Google
    Place looks appealing from outside so checked it out today for lunch and it was amazing !! Morris gives the best service ever and very warm and genuine gentleman to all his guests with a big smile on his face . Chef is amazing !! The ribeye steak is a must to order and the lamb chops too. Very yummy and juicy and flavorful. A food that don’t even need any sauce . Lovely desserts complimentary was such a generous gesture from the restaurant. Still very new 5 months and it’s doing very well! Keep it up !!!

  • 5/5 Gary G. 1 year ago on Google
    great food (both burgers and spare ribs) and some nice beers. The beer menu is small in relation to other restaurants but they're well chosen. We came two times during a four day trip, with EL Mamma being the only restaurant we visited twice. It was both times a pleasant stay with delicious food and good beers.

  • 5/5 Milind A. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited the restaurant for an early dinner with not much of an appetite, but the food here got us feeling hungrier than we actually were in a matter of a few bites! We took one of the tables outside, which isn't such a good idea if you hate busy streets. Also, the indoor seating is a lot more welcoming, warm and comfortable. The decor is very "ranch", with the chef and his grill right there for you to see through a glass window. The food itself was delicious! We had burgers which were the perfect amount of juicy, without being soggy, along with fries. Very good fries too. Service was friendly, warm and very efficient. Our food appeared in a matter of minutes and was demolished quickly too. The dessert options are great - puddings, apple pies, etc. We also had some if the fruit options and the melons were unexpectedly sweet! Overall, El Mamma BBQ is a place you want to make your regular casual hangout. If you visit, there's a good chance you will find me there stuffing my face again!

    Their spareribs are one of the best spareribs I've eaten. The waitstaff and owner are super helpful and friendly. It's a cozy, relatively small restaurant great for eating with friends and family for reasonable prices. Love it!

  • 1/5 Nicolas M. 2 years ago on Google
    Took more than 1hr to prepare the order. Very slow and disorganised service

  • 5/5 Lia G. 3 years ago on Google
    We first looked up online where we could eat something and almost decided not to go here because of the bad menu on their website. We couldn't read it on our phone. But luckily we had dinner here and it was so great !!! I can definitely recommend this place ! Really good service as well. The food came really quick and the staff is really nice :)
