About this restaurant

Good for groups
Neighborhood gem
Great for creative cocktails

Mothership is a familiar neighborhood hang. Mothership is a place where you can gather with your co-workers after a long day or skip the cooking at home and bring the whole family in. Shareable appetizers for the table, healthy and allergen-friendly options, or a homestyle classic. All are paired with good vibes + beverage options that suit everyone. Whether you're coming with the crew or watching the game at the bar by yourself, we’re your second living room; a place to hang.

Free parking is available to all Mothership guests at 140 Cambridgepark Drive. Take the first left after Mothership, and you will see a parking garage on the left. Simply press the intercom button, and let them know you are a guest of Mothership for entrance!

I’ve gone to this Revival location for coffee often and have had bites at the bar - but this was my first dinner! Andres was a fabulous server, he was a delight and made our experience so special. and the entire service team was kind and attentive. The food was lovely and classic with creative hints that elevated the standard offering. Really glad we stopped in! We’ll be back :)

The food was okay but the service, even on slow night, was bad. The server brought the wrong drink but we didn’t catch it until the check arrived and one of the ingredients was an allergen for my husband. Morhership never responded to my message to them.

Love the place. I’ve had the braised lamb twice in a row, and I bring home enough for my next day lunch. The helpings are generous. My companion had the flounder twice in a row, so I’ll have to try that the next time.

My boyfriend and I went per the recommendation of a colleague and it did NOT disappoint. We had the dumplings and flatbread for an appetizer, which were delicious, but the entrees and dessert stole the show. The chicken dish was so tasty. The carrot cake/cheesecake hybrid dessert with salted caramel ice cream was incredible. Our waiter was so helpful when it came down to picking what to eat and was so pleasant all night. Will certainly be coming back!
