Reviews for Mother Tongue Asian Bistro & Cocktail Bar in The Blue Mountains, ON

I visited a week ago with 7 girlfriends and we had an amazing time! They had plenty of options for both my gluten free and vegan... friends! The food was amazing, the drinks were amazing and our server, Connie, was THE BEST! She was extremely attentive andpatient with a group of rowdy women. :-) The experience was so great that I took my husband back there last night and was justas impressed! ?? Read more

We stayed in Blue Mountain area and I wanted to try this restaurant on the first night of arrival (Aug. 30). We were greeted by... a friendly Asian host and sat down quickly. The server brought us everything we needed and we ordered shortly after. The serverwasn’t very kid-friendly. My son wanted to have shrimp dumplings so I ordered it. And I also wanted to tried their JapaneseFurikake Fries, and Torched Wagyu Chow Mein. Shrimp dumplings were a disappointment. The skin was soggy. My son didn’t likeit. He ended up eating the fries, which wasn’t too bad. When the Torched Wagyu Chow Mein came, they torched 2 thin slices ofWagyu right in front of you, which was neat. I did not realize the chow mein sauce was spicy. So my son couldn’t eat it. Theonly thing he ate was 1 dumpling and some fries. I would say overall, food was not good for the price that I paid. Service wasbelow mediocre. I would not be returning to this restaurant. Read more

Went here during my cottage stay at Blue mountain. We had to make a reservation ahead of time because we were a group of over 20... people. Since we were such a large group, they had to sit some of us at different tables, however we were luckily all in thesame room. The employees were really nice, and the food was really good as well. My table ordered the Hong Kong Style Calamari,Korean Beef Short Ribs, General Tao Bao, and the Torched Wagyu Chow Mien. Hong Kong Style Calamari - was probably my favouriteappetizer dish they had that I tried. It seemed like my every table from my group of 20+ people chose this dish as theirappetizer. Korean Beef Short Ribs - was the second appetizer my table ordered. It was quite flavourful and sweet. General TaoBao - This was the dish I personally chose and the bao was very soft, the chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was coatedvery generously. It was a really sweet dish and the flavour hit hard. Torched Wagyu Chow Mien - the employee Torched the Wagyuinfront of us and conversed with us while torching the Wagyu. It was a splendid performance and they demonstrated their skillsin torching the Wagyu. Overall the taste of the food there was very good, their portion was enough to make me full. And theamount of time waiting for the meal was quite fast. The price was a bit on the pricier end, and if you are in a big group, theyhave a set rule for tip% when a big group is involved. I would recommend trying this place at least once if you haven't done soalready. Read more

INCREDIBLE VISIT. Great food, great staff, great vibes. AJ, Rafael, and Stewart took such great care of us. Went for an... appetizer and cocktail for my girlfriends birthday and it turned into 3 hours because we didn’t want to leave. This is a MUSTVISIT spot. You won’t get better in Blue Mountain. Did i mention we ordered so much food and didn’t leave a single bit. 10/5 Read more

I had the opportunity to be taken here for dinner by my group of friends. The place is amazing! Great painting on the wall that... kept you mesmerized while you wait for your first drink. Honestly, such a good vibe in there. They played a nice combination ofjazz, smooth reggae and other classics I usually jam to. Our waiter was extremely helpful in helping us split the bill anddidn't mind the noise we made so much. Overall, great experience can't wait to go back! Read more

One too I'll say is to make a reservation. Sit at the bar, and hope you're mixologist/bartender is Mitchell. The drinks were... fantastic, not watered down, at least ours weren't. The host was great, personable, with a sense of humour. Asian fusion is thename of the game here and it was an 8/10, but very delicious. The decor is beautiful, moody and electric. The bar area is verydark, so if seeing your food is on the top of your list, I'll make a reservation for one of the larger dining rooms, eat with aspotlight or dine elsewhere. Fantastic time at this spot! Read more

Everything was incredibly greasy. Absolutely overpriced for the food quality. You can get better food at the mall food... court. The chow main was so greasy we could only have a few forkfuls of it and the veggies and noodles were greasy and burnt sovery bitter. The ‘grilled chicken’ and the veg that came with it were so greasy it was insane (I actually got the sauce onthe side) and still it was barely edible. The dumplings were average nothing spectacular although you can get better ones atCostco. I gave it 2 stats because the tea was good and the decor is nice. Also the front of house was very courteous. And alsogreat view of the slopes and lights. Read more

My bf and I spent the Halloween and our anniversary at Blue mountain. Among all the cool restaurants in the village, we chose... mother tongue for part of our food adventure. I had to say that It’s the most beautiful dining experience I’ve ever had.Maybe it’s the beautiful seasonal tree with all the red leaves upgrades its atmosphere to a next level, but the foodpresentation and the taste as well as the thoughtful interior design clearly show that the quality of this restaurant can speakfor itself. Highly recommended ???? Read more
