Ever since I moved to Williamsburg, I have been astounded by the number of pancake houses all over town and vowed that I would try one of them. Since Mama Steve's one of the most well-known of the bunch, it seemed like a good one to try. Sadly, I was thoroughly unimpressed by my visit and will not be returning.... more

Bad service, bad food, bad atmosphere. Location must be the only thing that keeps this restaurant going. It happens to be at the end of Richmond Road that is closest to Colonial Williamsburg. Do yourself a favor and drive a couple of minutes farther down the road. I've never seen dirtier syrup bottles on a table. We're not talking drips... more

We decided for one morning to skip the free hotel breakfast and go out. This is where we ended up stopping, and it was so unworth the trip...that we did not go out for breakfast again for the rest of the trip. We got there, and the hostess...who my husband thinks might be moonlighting as a mortician (make up was... more

We ate at Mama Steve's this morning, and will not be going back. We waited about 10 minutes for a table which was much less than we anticipated given the line in front of us. We weren't seated by the hostess, but were given menus and directed to a table by the cashier as the hostess was busy. Not a... more

We visited on the Sunday after Valentine's Day and it appeared to be their first busy day of the season. We were not walked to our table by our hostess but rather she went about 5 steps and POINTED to an empty table we could sit at. The tip from the prior customers was still sitting on the table and... more

The food was mediocre at best; the staff was surly; and the syrup containers on our table were filthy and looked like they had not been washed in many years. When we showed the containers to the manger on duty, her only response was that the syrup containers were old and she handed them back to us to place them... more

We went here for breakfast on New Years Day. The place was packed. We had to stand in line for a while, but not long. The only highlight is the decoration inside. The staff is not very clearn. Some waitresses are pretty old and a little nasty. We overheard a gentleman complain because the food does take a long time... more

We took our entire family on a busy Saturday morning and were seated within 15 minutes. We had great food and a very charming waitress. I have extremely picky breakfast eaters and they all loved the food. Nice and classic pancake house that offers a wide range of food. We'll be back! more
