Was JL Northorp at Mama Grattis a mag?
The food is very good, but it feels like they are trying to cut corners when it comes to both quantity and quality. For example, both times I ordered the macaroni and cheese, it was excellent but served lukewarm. How can they expect you to enjoy cheese that isn't hot? View all feedback.

What User dislikes about Mama Grattis:
The food here is decent, it’s a great lunch option, the front line staff are pleasant, but listening to how their female boss berates them while serving customers is disturbing to say the least.

The food here is decent, it’s a great lunch option, the front line staff are pleasant, but listening to how their female boss berates them while serving customers is disturbing to say the least. She is rude and condescending, I had to witness her tearing into her staff, for serving four potato’s while it should only be three. How dare. But these are training moments you take away and discuss in private away from the customers. I hope she pays them enough of a wage to put up with her arrogant approach!

How the husband and wife owners treats their staff is truly shocking! They are extraordinarily rude, especially to female staff. Disgraceful!

Male owner speaks to staff and customers like they are dogs. Salads have no best before date on them. Lettuce is brown. He refused to give me my money back because I hate the chicken first then dug around and noticed the lettuce was brown. I did buy a coffee and muffin also.

My friend bought a salad and the lettuce was brown. They refused to give her a refund because she ate the chicken that was in the salad before digging around and finding that all of the lettuce was brown. Owners are abusive to their staff and rude to customers as well. No best before date on the salad purchased.

My go-to when I am indecisive about what I want to eat ... the mushroom steak melt is the best sandwich on the menu ... and if you feel like going green (not sick) ... go for the make your own salad which gives you the liberty to choose the contents of your salad ... they also have a few homemade soups and pasta options ... so overall a good variety ... I like it here ... and the prices are reasonable as well ...

An Unforgettable Experience at Mama Gratti’s – Scotia Square Mama Gratti’s is a hidden gem in the heart of Scotia Square! From the moment you step in, you're welcomed with warm smiles, cozy vibes, and the mouthwatering aroma of freshly made dishes. Whether you're in for a quick lunch or a relaxed meal, this place never disappoints. The food is absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. Their pasta salads are creamy and rich without being heavy, and the pizzas are perfectly crisp with generous toppings. I especially loved the tomato mozzarella grill panini and their cold pasta salads—both packed with flavor and comfort. You can tell everything is made with high-quality ingredients and attention to detail. The staff are incredibly friendly and efficient. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home, even during the lunch rush. Service is quick, but they never make you feel rushed—just the right balance of hustle and hospitality. It’s hard to find a place that combines taste, value, and great service so well, but Mama Gratti’s nails it every time. Highly recommend it if you're in downtown Halifax—this spot deserves all the love! Service: Takeaway Meal type: Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
