Love this place! They have the best food. I came here months ago with my bestie. I remember telling my husband about the amazing food, fantastic service, and upbeat atmosphere. He even loved my leftovers and insisted we come back together. Today was finally the day! He was hesitant to make the drive at first since we're about 15-20 minutes away. But he had zero regrets after taking a bite of the chilaquiles verdes with chicken. We were also pleasantly surprised at how delicious the passion fruit iced tea was. We try to avoid sugary drinks so it was a refreshing treat. I re-order the birria Benedict. Honestly, just as delicious as I remember it. I ordered a strawberry horchata latte to go. The tvs were playing DJ sets and my husband and I kept giggling that one of the DJs looked like Robert Downey Jr. It was honestly just what we needed for a lazy Saturday. We were helped out by Jacob who was attentive, funny, and honestly one of the best multitaskers I've seen. They're going to start accepting online orders in the next week or so. You'd be missing out by not coming in person but you'd be crazy to not try their delicious food. read more

Nice spot for weekend brunch. Interior is nicely decorated with neon lights and wall art. We came on Saturday afternoon for brunch around 12pm. The dining room was full and we waited about 5 minutes for them to turn some tables around. The servers were friendly and quick to take our order. I ordered the steak and eggs. It was good, flank steak was tender and my over easy eggs were cooked just right. My wife ordered the madre's chila quiles, which came with birria sauce. Overall food was good. read more

From the outside you can't really tell what whimsy lies within this place. We took our friends here for a birthday breakfast and of course were interested in the chilaquiles and their fancy sweet treats. The inside is perfect for Instagram posts and appears to be a great place to eat. Expectation vs Reality *FOOD* I ordered the Madres chilaquiles and the Dulce de Leche blended coffee Expectation: authentic chilaquiles, large portions and some spice. Coffee was expected to be sweet and smooth. Reality: small portion, food was room temperature and it was not spicy at all. I was disappointed in the lack of seasoning. The birria was the best part of the whole dish but it was cold and sparse on the plate. For $20.00 I expected way more considering I can make chilaquiles at home for less than $3. I ordered the Dulce de Leche blended coffee and it was yummy. This I would recommend and I added a shot of espresso because I don't really like super sweet coffees and it was perfect. **SERVICE** Expectation: Fair and fast service Reality: When we arrived, our friends were already sat and when we came over, the male server was warm, friendly and helpful but that was where the good service stopped. Not a single one of the other servers smiled or even acknowledged our table until we flagged them down despite empty glasses and us spending almost two hours there. Drinks were ordered and took 20 minutes to come out. Food was ordered when drinks were served and that took another half an hour. The restaurant had been open for about an hour at that point and was not full - I'm not sure what they were doing but then the food came out and it must've been sitting on the pass because it was not hot. It was dropped off without a smile and without any questions as to whether we needed anything additional. I was disappointed to say the least and I expected more from a place charging $20 for eggs and fancy french toast. Overall: If the service were better, I'd have given a higher rating. However, the bad service coupled with the fact that you can't make a decent salsa is just sad. I understand most restaurants scale back the spice level to appeal to all palates but don't offer authentic Mexican food if you can't make a decent salsa. Focus less on the whimsy and more on the FOOD. I could care less about the photo ops: I work hard for my money and I'd prefer decent food over neon lighting. read more

Arrived at Madres for breakfast, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. I had the birria omelette, and it was packed with flavor--definitely a must-try! I almost passed on ordering it because of a negative review, but I'm so glad I didn't. It exceeded my expectations. The service was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience was excellent. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend Madres to anyone looking for an amazing breakfast! Coffee was delicious as well. read more

Madres Brunch - Special coffee flight - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Riverside, California

I met up with a friend here for brunch on a Sunday. The wait was about 20 to 30 minutes, which isn't bad for a proclaimed brunch location. It felt like a long time though after we were seated to get service. We put in our drink orders, but they took a really long time to come out. They came out almost at the same time as our food, which is rough because you're trying to space out your alcohol intake over the course of the visit. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my mimosa flight. It was pretty standard I got the version with pineapple, orange juice and cranberry juice for $20. Not bad pricing. I got the churro French toast and bacon which was good. The bacon was a little small and could've been crispy. My friend's daughter got the chilequiles which were mid. My friend got the Nutella French toast. She liked it. If you live in this neighborhood or are 15-20minutes away I think this is a nice place to swing by, but for me the drive was a bit much when there are closer places with similar offerings. read more

If you have a sweet tooth for breakfast, then Madres Brunch is for you! This vibrant yet cozy restaurant offers large portions of pancakes, French toast, and waffles that are best for sharing with your table. Since you cant have sweet without the savory, we also tried their steak and eggs which I really enjoyed most. They also offer a great selection of beverages from mimosas to strawberry flavored horchata. Both the interior and exterior of the restaurant is filled with beautiful paintings on their walls and the staff here are very friendly and accommodating. Its a fun spot for brunch, especially for young adults. read more

Finally made it to this place! we tried coming last year, but there was a three hour wait so yes I recommend you come early because they get very busy and it gets full; we ordered the coffee flight, the red Chilaquiles with Birria and the omelette with Chilaquiles. Everything was so good. We had no room for dessert, but we kept looking around and all the plates looked amazing. We will come back and try something sweet as well our waiter was really nice. It turns out they were a little short staffed because a couple people called off on Mother's Day so imagine that it's definitely cute. Can't wait to try the other locations. read more

Check the full review @itsamandachamberlain Madre in Riverside was a great brunch experience from start to finish. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere that's perfect for a weekend brunch with friends or family. Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, and the drinks were just as impressive. The service was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Whether you're looking for a relaxing brunch, celebrating a special occasion, or simply trying a new restaurant, Madre is definitely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

We had to wait about 15 minutes on a Sunday morning. Not too bad. The exterior is just a basic brick building but inside they have it all decked out in flowers, pink lights, and butterflies. It's very cute. They have flights for everything! The matcha flight was so good. Each one had a very strong fruity flavor. It was hard to pick a favorite. The side of potatoes were great. The French Toast was giant but I think that made them a bit too dry for my liking. I would have preferred a thinner slice of bread to soak up more of the egg mixture. They have an extensive menu though so I would go back to try more. read more

I loved the aesthetics of this brunch place! Not just the cute wall decor, but also the food. It definitely has picture-worthy dishes to choose from :) Flavor-wise, everything tasted pretty standard, not bad but also not exceptional. However, I would come back here for sure just to have a fun brunch with friends or to try other dishes, as they had lots of options! Lastly, the service was great with kind servers and quick waiting times for the food. read more

Club lounge kind of vibe if you're into that. Not the mood for 8 am for me. So unexpectedly walked into that not knowing lol For the food I ordered it took about 30 minutes to get and it was a fairly large plate for 22 dollars (it should be for that price) however the food was cold and only slightly warm in the inside of the middle. I read the other reviews mentioning this. So it's definitely a reoccurring thing here. I guess it's cool to come and have mimosas and hang out and listen to music but wouldn't recommend ordering food . For vibes only read more

Madres Brunch - Mole chilaquiles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Riverside, California

First time visiting Madres. Two locations, this was the Riverside one, other is in Rancho Cucamonga. Best part of our order was the coffee. The chilaquiles had some heat, but lacked layers of complimentary flavors. The churro French toast was more like a cronut, harder than French toast is supposed to be, lots of crunch which I wasn't expecting. Maybe with a side of syrup or a carmel drizzle with whipped cream drizzle would have elevated it. It's beautiful inside and fun ambience wise, the staff were super friendly and attentive, I just wish the food delivered as much as the pictures suggest they did. I would come again, I would order the coffee and try different items. read more

The food here is actually really good, no complaints there. Whoever is back in that kitchen is doing their thing. But the overall experience feels like a test of patience and financial endurance. First off, the service moves at the speed of a DMV line the day after a holiday weekend. We had enough time between ordering and getting our food to reflect on life choices, reconnect spiritually, and consider applying for jobs there so we could check on our own order ourselves. Now let's talk about the drinks. Not cocktails, not fancy handcrafted lavender infused mocktails served by a guy named Sebastian. I'm talking regular soft drinks. Sodas. The kind you buy in a 12 pack at the grocery store. They bring them out in the actual can, no glass, no ice, no refill, no illusion of generosity whatsoever. And if you dare to ask for a second one? Boom, another $4 charge. Charging $4 per soda can while also making me pour it myself feels less like dining and more like I accidentally entered a luxury survival experience. At that point just hand me the Costco case and let me finance it. Again, the food was good. But between the slow service and the hostage negotiation approach to canned soda distribution, it's hard not to leave slightly irritated and oddly dehydrated. read more

My sister brought me to this beautiful brunch place! It's pretty viral. I forgot that I also saw these pancakes online. They have so many things I want to try and they have monthly specials. I got the mimosa cold brew flight special. It was champagne and cold brew. It was so interesting and so great! I loved every flavor. I also got the sampler toast and I didn't realize it was going to be on such thick soft bread. It was so delish! It had a 1/2 plece of toast with smashed avocado and cooked salmon topped with cherry tomatoes, capers and onion, a 1/2 piece of toast with smashed avocado, egg & bacon, and a 1/2 piece of toast with smashed avocado and cherry tomatoes. My sister got The Journey pancakes. They were so scrumptious. Omg, it was so fun to watch them pour the syrup and sprinkles. I've been thinking about these pancakes a lot. I want to go back so badly! read more

Would definitely come back! read more

I usually don't like to leave bad reviews but this is genuinely the worst experience I've ever had. We waited almost an hour for our food and the table next to us got their food before us even though we ordered first. I ordered the divorciados and I ordered my eggs over easy but I got them sunny side up and raw. My friend ordered the club sandwich and her fries were cold and hard as well as her toast. Two others in our party ordered the burrito and it was actually the saddest burrito we've ever seen.. the burrito was more tortilla than rice beans and meat. My boyfriend ordered the madre chilaquiles and everything came out cold. When we talked to the manager Jacob about our experience, he was very understanding and kind but he did say he was going to give us a "GREAT" discount.. and we got 15% off. I would want to give this place another try but for our first experience I think I'd rather spend brunch elsewhere.. read more

I lowkey hate that I came here on a day that there was a local marathon nearby and a surplus of people that stopped by after they finished... I feel like it makes it hard to gauge how the service would've been on a regular day when they weren't so busy, because it clearly looked like they were struggling a little bit as it almost took 10 minutes for them to just get our drink order... But nonetheless, the parking lot here is absolutely terrible... circled around for a bit but ultimately ended up parking across the street Ordered some green chilaquiles since that seems to be the go-to here... at first, the plate seems like there isn't much food in there, but it's actually pretty packed. In terms of flavor and spice though, I would just say it's average... there was pretty minimal meat on it for the price in my opinion, but hey, maybe I was paying for ambiance, not food portions... the churro French toast was pretty yummy Getting our check was another frustrating almost 20 minutes of waiting... I'm sure this place is decent for what it is, however, I don't think the food alone was enough for me to want to come back again and hope that the service is better read more

I ordered the steak and eggs meal and, it was the worst steak I've ever had in my life. I never send back food and have always been conflicted about the thought of it, but now I'm wishing I had. The steak was so chewy, 'stringy' and without flavor. It was super disappointing because this was the first steak I've ordered at a restaurant in more than 20 years. Additionally, the service was very mid, the server never checked up on us. I'm so disappointed in the restaurant but also disappointed in myself, because I should have sent it back. But, I also felt like I couldn't send it back anyway as the server was very absent, as stated before. This was our first visit and it will be our last. read more

Honestly, just disappointed with how long the food took in between each plate. For example, i recieved my eggs and hashbrown wayy before i got the actual meal (waffles), it was about a 40 min overall wait for my food in general (my little sister had already received her meal we were literally just waiting on waffles), on top of that it was pretty dead so i couldn't see why the food took so long to get sent out ..ended up sending back the eggs & hashbrown and requested a refund due to them being cold by the time the waffles were out & hashbrown having no flavor whatsoever don't know what happened this time but this was the worst experience ive had here so far, compared to my last two times, if i can suggest something, maybe the servers checking in more on the tables would be a good idea, it takes a bit for your server to check on you, ask for refills whatsoever They were nice enough to comp us a free refill of pink lemonade, so that's nice overall, wouldn't come back, hoping this review brings some awareness on time management with food & bettering your guy's service read more

Ok. So I really wanted to LOVE this place but I just kinda like it. Here's why: Service is awesome, staff is so friendly! 5 stars for them. The place itself is also cute although it gets super loud FAST! Now the food. The chilaquiles rojo was pretty dry. You can kind of see it in the pic although beautifully plated. We gave it a 7 overall. The madre was much more flavorful, we gave it an 8.5! The waffle is pretty standard, the Nutella French toast looks beautiful but it's just ok! Looks better than it tastes. The two egg combo of bacon and eggs, I'm not sure I even got two eggs. I asked for over medium and def got them overhard which was disappointing. The hash browns were good...overall this place is just OK! I'm not dying to go back, but I also didn't feel like it was a total waste of money. I do feel the need to say the staff, again, was awesome! Overall the food is a 3.5! read more

Was in the area for an event pretty early and was looking for some vegan breakfast. This place surprisingly came across my radar, it was new to me, so I gave it a try. This seems like a pretty popular spot. The fare is mostly Mexican food, with a decent selection of vegan breakfast items. There was a wait for groups but not too long of a wait and a pretty good amount of seating. I sat at the bar and went over the menu. I couldn't help but notice how dirty the menus were. I know multiple people handle and look over them, but it doesn't look like there's any effort to wipe any food residue off of them. A simple lysol towel or something. Sat down at the bar, I ordered the tofu scramble with some mimosa flights -their green apple and pineapple. The food itself is pretty good. Not a great portion, but yummy for what it is. My mimosa and water glasses also didn't seem too clean, so I just drank from them in a way to only touch the clean parts and I didn't even drink from my water glass at all. For the food, I'd come back. Just hope things are a bit cleaner. read more

So much on the menu I could hardly decide, they have something for everyone. I ordered the birria omelette since I wanted something different. Wife ordered the chilaquiles and added chicken. It was a decently cooked plate, I was served with a small plate of beans on the side and pickled onions. The onions is what made my omelette great, the beans were pretty bland, could've used some queso fresco to make them better, the birria was probably made the same day since it wasn't all that tender and the consume was a bit watered down. My wife on the other hand loved the chilaquiles she ordered, I tired them and they were good but, I mean, you can't really miss with what she ordered because the sauce was good and had the perfect balance of salt. Chicken was tender even though it was pan fried. They did a great job I was just a little let down with the birria. Coffee is great to say the least, so many options but you can taste that the quality of coffee they give is really good. If I weren't on a diet this would easily be a 4 star review ... I need to try their pancakes and French toast, I will be back .... I will update the review then and this might even be a 5 star next time with that churro French toast! read more
