You order at the counter and can be brought to your table or to-go. There's also a well stock coffee and local goods section available for purchase. I had the Oconee Cuban with the cucumber salad as a side. The sandwich was on delish bread and was well constructed. The cucumber salad was soggy and very white. There's some room for improvement. Overall good price and food. With plenty of seating and food to match if you want breakfast or lunch.

During a vacation trip, we got off to an early start with breakfast at Mama's Boy cafe at The…read moreFalls. A counter-service venue, the food was typical breakfast fare that came out very quickly. The signature hot sauce on the table was nothing to get excited about, but the service was quick, friendly and constant throughout our visit. The cafe was bright, clean and wide open.

It's newer, roomier, and has a more polished, modern feel while still keeping that Southern charm. What I Loved: * The Peach French Toast was absolutely delicious--sweet, comforting, and full of flavor. It totally lived up to the Mama's Boy reputation. * The Strawberry Lemonade was so good, and yes, free refills! Major win. * The new space is beautifully done. Clean, comfortable, and feels more upscale compared to the original, but still welcoming. It's always a good sign when a place expands and still keeps the quality and heart. This newer location might just be my go-to now!

We placed a to-go order, but unfortunately discovered we were missing the bacon after we had already left. We had to go back, but the staff was very apologetic and quickly made it right, which we appreciated. Despite the small hiccup, the quality of the food and the customer service will definitely bring us back again.

After taking my first bite my initial thought was 'I will never order this again". I got the pork…read morebelly rice bowl and I absolutely and fully regret eating it. I feel gross and it was such a let down. If y'all know me, you know I'm big on being greeted within the first few seconds of walking into an establishment. The gal didn't say anything to me, just stood at the register waiting for me to order. I asked her what she would recommended between the pork belly bowl or the curry chicken noodle soup and she just said it just depends on if I wanted noodles or rice.. that should Have been my first clue. I hate leaving bad reviews... but this is not my first visit here. The first time I ordered the dumplings with chili sauce, and the older lady was super sweet and it was super delicious. My only qualms were how FILTHY the trash can was and how empty the place was... I was the only customer. It was the same this go around too... no customers, and the trash can was STILL FILTHY!! (And I know they're not busy enough to not get up off their butts and clean!!!) I digress.... The reason I feel grossed out is because the fried egg was barely fried, and there was no seasoning or pizazz to it at all... just a sunny side up on rice and pork belly. The pork belly itself was not fresh. It must have been cooked either earlier in the day or a few days before. I know this because of how the fat in the pork belly tasted. It wasn't cooked well either... there was no crisp to the top part whatsoever and the fatty part.... Well that was the grossest part. It was that gummy slimy texture and that is anything but pleasant. I'm really hoping this place turns itself around.. because I do dig the vibe, but they need to get un lazy and start caring a little more. And I'm not seeing their vision... are they a donut shop.... Hot dog shop... or Asian food...??? I think they would attract more business with a more definitive theme. Like I said, I hate leaving poor reviews, but I'm doing so in hopes they see it. (Oh ya, because calling with a critique is out of the question.... They don't answer their phone!! Tried calling to put in my order). Come Mochinut, do better!!! PLEASE!!!

Indonesian fare is definitely not what I was thinking about today, but after living in Atlanta and…read moreknowing there are a lot of culinary choices, I decided to run by after seeing a new addition on the Mochinut Athens Menu -- they have Indonesian curry chicken on the menu, along with the Indonesian version of hainanese soy-sauce chicken! I was not disappointed except that Chef V said she had to stop doing the Indonese chicken (look it up) and make everything white meat for the locals in Athens. I hope that changes. The soy ginger sauce was excellent. The curry chicken is a definite try for those who would like to sample something different and hot and tasty! In short: Try the spicy dumplings, the curry chicken and the soy sauce chicken dishes here and maybe have a nice pandam mochi donut at the end!

We also had the pumpkin muffin which was also very good. The service was good as well, we had to wait a little bit because she was on the phone but other than that she was very nice and even help us change an order we needed. The overall interior was very cute, a converted house to the restaurant. Had a great experience, only downside was the price. For two people we spent about 40 dollars, which is honestly fine for what we got.

The bagels were good. I think I just expected more from there. I do think this is a quick breakfast area that you can quickly go and pick up or a place where we can sit at if you're staying in Athens for the weekend, especially potentially a long weekend if you were there attending sports events. Again not a horrible place but definitely not the first place. I would go back to for bagel in Athens. Overall, pretty solid just nothing that wow's to me.

It's obvious this is a hot spot for students to meet and work, and for good reason because the bagel sandwiches we ordered were delicious! We sat ourselves at one of the table tops and ordered from a phone instead of going to the counter. The space was cramped, which is probably why most people ordered to go instead of trying to eat there. It took a while to get our order delivered to our table, but it's understandable given the high demand at the time. Would come back!
