Owner’s need to please customer. When there twice and the 2 times where good until you have to deal with the owner’s they have a disrespectful attitude if it wasn’t for the customer they wouldn’t be open this time we went and the f@$!% owner got mad just because we ask the waitress to change one of the tv’s he is a prick
Worst place I have ever been to. The chips were oily and tasted old. The salsa looked like tomatoe sauce out of a can and was horribly acidic. For a party of four the basket of chips was not only gross but only half full. They refused to make any changes to items or take out the meat. I ended up eating beans and rice. The beans tasted as if they were from a can and the rice tasted old. The people I was with had orders that turned out just as horrible. The pious as or whatever they’re called looked half burned and were extremely dried. When they asked for hot sauce the waitress came back with a tiny and I mean tiny container. I will never come back to this place. Every time I drive by and I’m with someone I tell them of my horrible experience. I’m glad I went if only because now I make sure no one I know goes there.
So Yummy!. My friend and i decided to dine out and he had mentioned wanting some americana…. i recalled a small place i used to frequent and so we headed to the location…. it was no longer. However, in it’s place was Mama Greta’s… and we are both adventurous with our foods. So in we went!I love ethnic restaurants where it feels like i must have been mistaken coming in because i look like none of the other diners 🙂 Good sign! We were seated and brought chips and salsa- the salsa was delicious! So fresh and yummy!The menu was a little intimidating, but that’s kind of exciting…. i like to see unrecognizable choices that require you to look for the English description… We decided to try the cebiche appetizer,for me- papusas (1 chicken and 1 pork) and for him – the chayote rellenos. The food, in total, was fabulous 🙂 Also, the portions were very generous, so leftovers today!We’ll definitely be back!
I’ve yet to eaten. This is a review?
Ive yet to eaten but trust reviews that…. Know what a true quesadilla is cause.. any El Salvadorian knows its not torilla and chesse… plus! anyone kniow where I can get some Samilla? (sp) I miss this sooo much… my grandma would always bring it back with her on her trips to El Salvador.. and I love it! but cant find it 🙁
LOVE THE PUPUSAS. Ok, so I’m not from El Salvador, nor do I have many Salvadorean friends but I love to try many, many different types of foods so I’ve tried a lot of pupuserias in the area. I do have to say that these pupusas are by far the best pupusas I’ve had in the area. They were sooo good. I tried las revueltas, pupusa de queso and pupusas de pollo. All were soo yummy. I will go back and try other things from the menu but they certainly did not disappoint with what I tried.
Loved Mama Greta’s. I am a Salvador native, and I was skeptical when I heard of La Cocina de Mama Greta, why? Well simply because I have sampled many Salvadorean restaurants in North Carolina and I have never been trully content with the way the make our food, and I always walked out sad!! I guess I was looking for a place where the food actually reminded me of my Grandmother’s cooking back at home. When I go in a Salvadorean restaurant, I always ask for the main things, which I know are very hard to get right, according to my taste of course, so I went in to La Cocina de Mama Greta’s the first day I heard of it, and ordered pupusas, sopa de pollo,(chicken soup), and quesadilla (sweet bread with a cheesy taste to it) and I thought to myself, if this three items do not taste good, I know not to return!!! Well I loved it!!!! and Im soooo happy to have found a restaurant that I can go back to and eat anything and know that it will taste good… I am looking forward to go back and eat there again!!! Im happy I found this place, being that it is well hidden, for I had drove past Red Lobster off of wake forest road and had never known that place was there!! Mama Greta’s is defenately a restaurant I can take all my non-Salvadorean friends to so they can sample our food, because I will know that everything there tastes just right to be settled in the United States, I truly believe it is the closest I will get to home from here… If you are wondering how salvadorean food tastes like Mama Greta’s is defenately with out a doubt the place to go!!! When you do go, I hope you like it as much as I did 🙂
