Description

A cozy, family-owned breakfast and comfort-food spot in Tyler, Texas, praised for generous portions, low prices, spotless dining rooms and warmly attentive service. Fans rave about migas, waffles and dependable delivery, and colorful, homey decor adds charm. Expect friendly hospitality and value, but note inconsistent preparation: some entrees tasted reheated or bland and the chicken-fried steak has disappointed traditionalists, so food quality can vary by dish.

Fantastic food with an amazing host! We've visited two days in a row just to sample different dishes, and everything has been delicious! The prices are very reasonable, and the service is friendly and welcoming. Food: 5/5

I was greeted right away and the atmosphere was fantastic, filled with friendly smiles. The food was incredible! Although I live in Dallas, I will definitely return to this place whenever I'm in Tyler. I really appreciated the lovely cross decoration as well. Plus, everything was spotless, including the restroom. Food: 5/5.

Great place! We have been here a handful of times and we really enjoyed it! Today, we ordered delivery, and it was still just as good. My wife even asked for extra well-done hash browns, and they were extra well-done, which never happens at any other place. My chicken fried steak w/ gravy was 10 out of 10. The fruit cup was great as well. We will be ordering again

My husband and I came here for a little breakfast date, and it was the first breakfast we went out for that we truly enjoyed in a good while! The restaurant appears to be family owned, which is a sweet plus.All of the food we ordered was cooked PERFECTLY. We really did not have any complaints (at other breakfast spots, there's usually one or two things that we end up not being the happiest about). Additionally, look at those portions!! Each of our orders were only about $12 per person, which is insane! You go anywhere else for breakfast and pay $12, and you get a small fraction of what we were served at Mama's.We left with happy stomachs for sure!
