As a Nigerian, I am highly disappointed. Very poor service and customer care. I made an order yesterday evening as I was working in the hospital and couldn’t leave my work station as the doctor on call. My food never got delivered. I called the restaurant and they were very rude and dismissive to me telling me that I should either make another order or take it up with the delivery company even though I had ordered via the restaurant’s website. The staff I spoke to was very insensitive and extremely rude. I am still yet to get my refund. I will not be patronizing this business with my hard earned money in the future.

Was heading to Cardiff for nigerian cuisine when by of chance I googled Nigerian food close to me and Mama T came up. My exercise unfortunately wasn't great. Food was very bland to the extent I asked for Maggi, that didn't kick it and i asked for salt. Nigerian cuisine is the easiest to cook you can't go wrong with it... I was ill for days afterwards and I don't think I have ever been ill from pounded yam and ogbono soup ever! The racket from the kitchen would have woken the dead! Please make effort on taste and, although we thrive on loud as Nigerians, your 3 staff in the kitchen that day can easily be an entire orchestra

Lovely warm welcome, we were the only ones in here but it didn’t feel strange as it was a nice atmosphere. The lady helped us to decide what to eat and we weren’t disappointed!

If you love anywhere within Newport and you're craving some Nigerian delicacy, I totally recommend Mama T. Amala is one of my favourite and they make it really nice here. Visit and thank me later.

My darling boyfriend loves Mama T’s oha soup and pounded yam I agree totally. I would normally have jollof rice, fried yam and peppery meat (asun). Good music, nice clean area and restroom. I highly recommend this.

Best African spot in all of Wales, I'm literally here every week, I've tasted every single item on the menu and they were all banging!! I've never tasted any Jollof as good as the one at Mama T plus the environment is very hygienic aswell, I totally recommend.

Mama t was truly exceptional and the goods are well cook The quality of the ingredients was evident in every bite, and the care and attention that went into preparing the dish was clear. I was particularly impressed by the chefs Your passion for food shines through in every aspect of the meal, and I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience it. Please pass along my compliments to the chef and the entire team. Thank you again for a truly unforgettable dining experience. I can't wait to return and try more of foods

Went for food with my husband and of course food was lovely. I wasn’t treated nicely as seem only treat and respect people they’re familiar with. Also, I forgot my phone and the table was cleared immediately. I was only few steps away from the restaurant when I realized I left my phone and went back to find my phone lying there on the table. I picked my phone without any of the attendants noticing. Clearly shows they care less. In a normal situation, my attention could have been called as I was only few steps away. If that wasn’t possible then the right thing to do was to keep safe until claimed.

The.restaurant is absolutely lovely in an oldy worldy pub with a large car park which includes disabled parking. On entering the establishment we were welcomed and shown to our table by an extremely likeable and attentive young man who looked after us throughout our visit and I would say he went above and beyond with his service. We were celebrating a visit of family from New Zealand and friends recommended this venue. Now to the meals, I’m afraid this is where our recommendations must end, the food was poor to say the least and the portions minute, in fact the food looked lost on a dinner plate.. the chips were absolutely awful, dried up, wrinkly and looked and tasted reheated from the day before, these were served in a silver cup, so on the plate was the smallest rump steak I’ve ever seen, it measured approximately 50mm x75mm and half a grilled tomato. I ordered my stake cooked medium it was. Served very well done and tough to chew. The only saving grace were the overpriced deserts which were lovely. I thought everything was overpriced not just the sweets. Would we go again? Definitely not once bitten twice shy I did tip the waiter as he was exceptional

Went as a couple on valentines day, and when we arrived we were the only people in the restaurant (and had a booking) however the waitress directed us to sit on a sofa before we could go to our table, this was just an indicator of how the night was going to go... I'll start with the positives, the food was hot and tasty, and there was a good selection of vegetarian options, I definitely suggest the paneer chilli masala! My vegetable vindaloo was not spicy at all however, which was disappointing. Not the best indian food I have ever eaten, but not the worst... Unfortunately the negatives far outweighed the positives. The service was slow and odd, to say the least. The waitress took our drinks order then proceeded to go and wrap cutlery instead of fetching the drinks, eventually they arrived, followed by our popadoms. Our dirty plates from the popadoms were left with us whilst we ate our starters. A long wait later our main courses arrived. Once we had nearly finished the main courses, the smoke alarm went off. No apologies from any of the staff, and no indication that it was going to be turned off. We asked for the bill, and the only other table asked for their food to takeaway, as there was no indication the deafening noise was going to end. We were then informed there was no card machine, so I had to sit listening to the smoke alarm for ten minutes whilst my partner found a cash point. A little advance warning if this would go a long way! As we walked round to the taxi rank we could still hear the alarm sounding. Overall a weird experience, made worse by the constant alarms and chirping from the bar area, and the deafening smoke alarm at the end! A lack of music in a completely empty restaurant makes for a very uncomfortable experience. If this hadnt been chosen and booked as a valentines treat by my partner I doubt I would have visited, and I cant say that I will visit again, as the food quality did not outweigh the issues listed above.
