    Relaxed Saturday brunch where the food really shines! Loved this place from the minute I walked in. I wish I could have tried more food. Can’t wait to go back. The server I had was extremely friendly and the food came out quickly. Everything or party had was delicious and hot. Get dessert!

    During my two week visit to L.A. this was by far the best place we ate at. The food was delicious and plenty of it. I highly recommend trying it out.

    The first time I ate here was a Saturday about 9:00 a.m in the summer.  This is a sit-down-and-eat place, where you want to take your time and chat with friends and family.  It looked busy, but we surprisingly had no problem getting a seat, although we chose to sit outside.  It was July so it wasn't cold so I can't comment on whether there were any heat lamps.  The server was friendly and charming and attentive, quickly taking our order and refilling our drinks. The other customers seem to be local families and regulars here.  I don't come here often but this is one of my friend's favorite places to take her family, and this time she invited me to share the place.  The ambience and the service and the food can make it addictive.  I had the Jackie's, which was an eggwhite omelette with mushrooms and spinach and avocado.  The portions were quite large and I didn't finish half of it.  Took the food in a box, and it took me several tries to finish the meal.  I enjoy eating here and they do a great job all around.  My friend likes their breakfast sandwich, but she ruins it by filling it with Ketchup.  Recommended

    Thank you, Mama's and server Maddie! Our party of 25 was so well taken care of yesterday! Our table was all set up when we arrived and Maddie did a wonderful job taking care of our sports team. The girls were pretty chilly after early morning beach photos and hot chocolates were quickly served. Our breakfast order came out so quick and all the orders were perfect. Mama's is professional, courteous and a great place to enjoy! Well done, Mama's and Maddie!

    If you’re looking for food around the beach, I’d say this is a good place. Good sized portions and a friendly place. I sat at the bar, it was definitely nice. The food wasn’t a wow, but it wasn’t bland neither. It’s a good balance, and a good atmosphere.. definitely a try

    Jacob served us and was an AMAZING server. Food was great but the service was better. We went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed, checked in on us, and was just a great guy all around. Made the meal memorable

    We visited for Sunday morning brunch, and as the restaurant was quite busy, there was a short wait for our food. The meal was satisfactory overall. I particularly enjoyed the crispy and well-seasoned potatoes served with the eggs Benedict. The salad was pleasant, though it was missing the avocado that was expected in a Shrimp Avocado salad. My sister did not notice this until she was halfway through her meal. The service was good. Overall, we had an enjoyable meal.
