    Greek Omelet
    Renee D.

    Today was our second time at Mama's Breakfast Table, and it was just as enjoyable as our first visit. The first time it was my husband and I; this time we invited his parents because we knew they would love it too. It is such a cute spot for breakfast or lunch. The front window bring in the sunshine, and there are fresh flowers on every table. It's clean and arranged well so that you don't feel crowded. Just like the first time, the dining area was busy, nearly full. On our previous visit, there was a table of about twelve and every other table was full, and our server actually apologized that we had to wait a couple of minutes after we were seated for menus to be brought to us--she was so sweet! But the busy pace doesn't seem to phase the waitstaff or kitchen at all. Service is welcoming, friendly, and prompt, and food is delivered hot, fresh, and more quickly than I'd expect when they have such a crowd. Between the four of us today, we tried the waffles with strawberries, the Spam-a-Lot special (super cute name for a Spam breakfast) which came with a biscuit and gravy, potatoes, and two eggs, the Greek omelet, and the chorizo omelet special. Every dish was devoured and enjoyed. Even though the restaurant is busy, it isn't a place where it's so rushed that you have to hurry and move on. We ate, talked, sipped coffee, and had a relaxed experience.

    This is our first time here very small hole in the wall, but definitely a place to try. The waitress was beyond incredible. Continue to check on us. Food came out a nice fresh & hot. The fruit with the French toast was fresh. Costs for breakfast was very reasonable. If you're working on a budget this is a good place to go and enjoy good food. I would definitely be returning.

    Western Omelette

    This food was soooo good! I had a western omelette with potatoes and a biscuit. The biscuit was soooo soft and buttery and the potatoes were perfect! Seasoned just right and a little crispy but not too much. The omelette was tasty, not greasy like some place and was stuffed! I was kind of shocked they were so busy on a Friday mid morning but we did find seats at the bar. Also, the wait for food wasn't long considering the full restaurant. It is street parking but we found a spot with no problem.

    Mama's Breakfast Table truly lives up to the name -- it feels like you're sitting down to a homemade meal in someone's warm and welcoming kitchen. The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked with real care. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. I had ___ (you can tell me what you ordered and I'll customize!), and everything came out hot, seasoned just right, and portioned perfectly. Their breakfast plates remind you of how breakfast should taste -- comforting, filling, and made with love. The staff was friendly, patient, and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed, making it a great spot for families or a quiet morning solo meal. If you love genuine home-style cooking and a good breakfast to start your day right, Mama's Breakfast Table is absolutely worth it!

    I don't eat breakfast much, but will definitely be returning to Mama's Breakfast Table! We entered and it was crowded, buzzing with tables enjoying their breakfast and having lively conversations. It had a neighborhood regular vibe that was very warm and welcoming. Staff were friendly and greeted us as soon as we entered and put our name on the waitlist. A short time later, we were seated. The server, who was also the person seating people did an excellent job being attentive to everyone while juggling a lot of tasks. She got our drink orders as soon as we were seated. We knew what we wanted to order as we decided while waiting. I love breakfast burritos, so decided on that. I wanted to try the grits, but they were out so I went with the hash browns. The food arrived quickly and my burrito was yummy! It was a no frills, but delicious breakfast. And the hash browns were a cheesy like casserole. Crispy on the outer edges and cheesy in the middle. So good!! I will definitely be returning to try some of the other breakfast items as they all look tasty! Service here was warm and inviting with a cozy vibe. Checks all the boxes for a perfect weekend breakfast!

    Strawberry cheesecake croffle
    Emily B.

    This place is so cute! I absolutely love the vibe. The western omelet was huge. It was good, very buttery but the egg was a little thin for my liking but still good. The strawberry cheesecake croffle- UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT. Hands down the best dish I've ever eaten for breakfast. I could eat it all day. The potato casserole with the omelet was good too. We will be back and hopefully different versions of the croffle will be around!! Our waitress was super nice as well.

    The staff were very friendly and attentive. Good coffee! The food came quickly, sorry no picture, we were too anxious to start eating this fantastic meal. We ordered the pork chop breakfast and a side of pancakes and shared the meal. It was plenty! I like my eggs over medium which most restaurants never get it right, Mamas nailed it! We ordered the fried potatoes, I typically prefer hashbrowns, but my husband likes them fried, these potatoes were perfectly cooked. The pork chops were amazing, they had a nice crispy breading, so tender. And the pancakes! Oh my goodness, I would go back just for them. Mamas is going to be one of my favorite breakfast spots, I can't wait to go back.

    Fun little place for breakfast/brunch. We went with a group after church and tried a couple of different things. It's an open restaurant with little tables everywhere. Cute signs and decorations around. It threw us off that there were som many different menus. There's that standard menu (same info on both sides), a small table menu in a plastic holder, a seasonal additions menu and then a chalk board wall with more options. Look everywhere if you want to make sure you want to select from all the offerings! Good came out quickly and was hot. The Scotts big omelet is listed as a 5 egg omelet, but they must be really small eggs, because it wasn't as impressive as it sounds. Potatoes were cooked well, but didn't have much seasoning, which was disappointing. Everything else was tasty and our server did a great job of keeping drinks full and checking on us. Will be back to try more options from the menu(s)!

    This place is a bargain! Great food at a good price. We went for the first time and I had the Big Breakfast Sampler and it was only $13 and I got so much food, I had to bring some home. Because it was the weekend, they had the cheesy potato casserole instead of the fried potatoes and they are amazing. The bisquits and gravy were delicious and just enough. The service was quick and efficient. Everyone was pleasant. The place was very clean.

    I'm in a breakfast group on Facebook. A little while ago there was a lot of chatter about this place in the group and I thought that we should check it out some day. Today was the day We live a half hour or so away, but we're always willing to take a drive to go to a new-to-us place and we've found a lot of places we love that way. Unfortunately, this was not one of them. We went back and forth on whether it was a two or three star place. It's probably a 2.5. We arrived and there were a number of tables available. A server seated us at a table that needed to be cleaned instead of one that was already clean. She cleared it and said she'd be back to wipe it off and she did so. She put napkins down and said she'd return. She never did. We saw three servers there. We eventually got one of them to bring us menus. I'm thinking it was close to ten minutes after we were seated. No water or drinks yet either. Throughout our time there, there were a lot of times there was no employee on the floor. We eventually end up having two servers taking care of us. We finally got to place our order. We didn't have to wait too long for our food to be brought out. The food was very average. Nothing great. The sausage is super salty. The gravy is a milk gravy and it didn't have much flavor. I ordered a latte and it wasn't very hot and they put a ton of whipped cream on it so I had to drink that fairly quickly while it was still warm! The portions are large and the prices are extremely reasonable. It looks nice in there, but the floor was dirty. My husband went to the restroom and there was no soap and no paper towels. I told a server about it and didn't see anyone go in and do anything about it. We won't be going back. UPDATE: The owner responded almost as soon as I posted and apologized. She said they probably shouldn't have opened today. Some staff were out sick with the flu and they were very short handed. Her husband stepped in to be the cook and was doing his best. I appreciate her reaching out and explaining the situation. We are more likely to go back again!

It had waffle fries, hamburger, lettuce, tomato's, jalapeños, guacamole and sour cream. The fries were cooked perfectly, the hamburger had the crunchy edges even though it was crumble pieces. The cheese sauce was creamy but a little thick for my liking. For $10.00 they loaded the to-go box down.

I recently stopped by after an appointment in STL. It was right at lunch time and it was also, opening day for the Cardinals. So when I entered, the line to order was already long. To my surprise, the one lady taking orders, moved that line quickly. So I give her major kudos. When it was turn to order, I was ready. I went with a Double and swapped out the American Cheese for Pepper Jack. For my side, I tried their Salt&Pepper Onion Rings. After ordering, I took my number stick and took a seat at the bar. Once seated, the bartender welcomed me and I ordered a draft beer. I barely had completed my Wordle and my burger basket was being slid in front of me. Before taking my first bite, I admired the crisp edges and actually ran my finger around them. My first bite was heaven. It proved to me that all a good smash burger needs is; ketchup, mustard, onion and pickles. The Onion Rings were made in house and the simple seasoning of Salt & Pepper made them a winner. While dining at the bar, I learned a new trick. If you're going to be sitting at the bar to enjoy your smash burger, you can order it from the bartender. That's right, no standing in line to order, you can go straight to the bar. Great staff. They all hustle and provide friendly and professional service.

I'm disappointed that it took me so long to make my way here. They won me over with the tiny dedicated parking lot. At my big age, difficult parking situations are a turn off and I will go home if I can't get reasonable parking. I was able to snag a space in the lot and headed in. The space is a bit dark with rich sage, brass, and terracotta. There are several hanging plants making it an inviting place. The bar has plenty of comfortable seating and cozy tables if you decide to bring some friends. Caleb was our server during our visit. He was an absolute delight. He made excellent cocktail suggestions. He looked after our group without being overly doting. Just a gem of a human. We tried approximately 9 cocktails during our visit. Did I mention we were at brunch! I highly recommend the peach bite and the Side Car. Every cocktail is thoughtfully made and well executed. They offer a small brunch menu along with the regular menu. I usually always get chilaquiles when they are available. But today the ruby trout and grits sounded perfect. This dish was amazing!! The trout was thin with crispy skin. The grits were creamy and delicious. The dish is topped with a house made radish pico and salsa macha. We also ordered a breakfast sandwich that was paired with the crispiest breakfast potatoes I've ever had. The burger and fries are also a good option. The seasoning on the fries is next level. The brunch menu has a sticky toffee roll that is a perfect size for sharing or not. Salty sweet fork tender cinnamon roll. Lastly, the deviled eggs were a group favorite. I am a big fan of Passenger Chili Crisp. If you are unfamiliar please look them up! It's hands down the best chili crisp I've ever had. It's locally made here in STL and can also be found in several dishes at restaurants around town. The eggs were creamy with the right amount of tang from the mustard. The chili crisp made these deviled eggs easily top five best I've ever had! Planning to stop in again soon for happy hour with more friends

Very yummy and the two sauces were perfect accompaniment. Absolutely delicious. Not long after, friends arrived and I shifted from solo laptop time to conversation. It's nice to see how Rockwell handles the flow of customers. Casual, attentive, friendly. Just right for a great brewpub and a great time. They do have a parking lot.

Prince would have given it a thumbs up. After some intense conversations with my buds, I ordered some food and a beer. I typically get their famous burger with fries or the chicken wings, but I got adventurous and ordered the nachos. When I asked the bartender how they were, he said that's what he was having for dinner and showed me his plate which sold me. It may have only been an appetizer, but it was filling and easy to eat while enjoying more convo. I'm a fan of Avery Brewing in Colorado, so I had their White Rascal as my beer. Rockwell is so close to getting a 5 Star rating from me, but they keep missing the mark on the customer service. It's good, but some of the staff treat older customers differently then those their age. This visit, one of them was cold and had attitude. After a few tips, they warmed up and provided friendly service and actually got chatty. So I think next time, they may just get the bump to 5.

It's a single patty, with Pepper Jack Cheese, Tomato-Onion-Jalapeno Relish, Drizzled with a Tangy Fire Ranch and served on a Martin's Potato Roll. The burger was juicy and had those crispy edges that a smash burger is known for. My favorite cheese is Pepper Jack, so that was a big plus for me. The relish added that extra kick that made it a true, Firecracker. I can't enjoy a burger without fries and Jack offers long skinny fries. They had a crispy shell and a soft hot inside. They were simply seasoned with just the right amount of salt. I was impressed that the ketchup was 100% Natural. That gets a big thumbs up. When enjoying a burger and fries, a nice cold beer is always the adult beverage of choice. JN offers a small variety of craft beers on draft and three popular Anheuser-Busch products. I enjoyed a Gumballhead from 3 Floyds Brewing. An American Pale Wheat is a perfect lunchtime beer. The bartenders are personable and offer warm service. I'm definitely coming back the next time I crave a smashburger.

    This place is so, so cool. My cousin took me out for dinner and I had never even heard of this…read morespot. Wow, it's such a beautiful and moody spot full of charm!! We had to wait 15 minutes for a booth but I didn't mind because this place serves LOOKS. The decor was awesome! Everything from the stellar service, crispy and lacey smash burgers and gorgeous dining room(s) made me realize why this spot is always recommended to me. We were very happy with our food and it was under $50 for two people! Check out Golden Hoosier, you won't regret it.

    I had heard about this place and wanted to check it out! There were seven in our group and we went…read morefor an early dinner. We were greeted and seated right away. It was more than just a few minutes before a server came over. We ordered cocktails and then got serious about choosing our meals. We eventually decided and placed our orders. We got pretzel bites and cheese to start and it was fine. Then our food came out! I think most of us got burgers. I know someone got the fried chicken sandwich and said it was good. The smash burgers were good. About half of the fries were good and the rest were overcooked. The cocktails were good! Our service could have been a little better. Our server was somewhat efficient. She wasn't overly friendly or attentive. Maybe they were short staffed but I don't know. I just know that service was lacking. There are many things to look at on the walls! If you're into taxidermy, you'll love looking at We'll probably end up back there sometime.

    We went here as a family after my graduation. There was something for everyone in the family to…read moreenjoy. I split the veggie burger and the mushroom burger with someone. The mushroom burger is unlike any other I've ever had. It's ground up mushroom in the shape of a patty with cheese on the inside that is then breaded and deep-fried. It was good and something new, but I preferred the regular veggie burger. The veggie burger comes with crispy onions, which I loved. The service was also great. We are a family that loves pickles and sometimes when we ask for extra pickles, it doesn't seem like we ever get enough. It was not the case here! They were very generous with the extra pickles which we were really happy about. The cheese fries were standard. The Oreo milkshake seemed pretty standard as well, but milkshakes aren't my favorite thing. Personally, I didn't care for how everything is served without a plate and with the burgers in the paper bags. I think the paper bags the burgers come in are a great idea to stop your hands from getting messy, but I had to take the burger out to realign everything so that all the bread wouldn't be at the very bottom and it just became a mess. Note: 1 burger was enough for me. I thought I was still hungry after and got another and that was a mistake!

    I used to love Shake Shack, but frankly, this was my last visit. I ordered the regular Shake Shack…read moreburger, and it was ok, but it was $9.79 for just the burger. AND it was so tiny. I mean, really, really small. It just wasn't worth the price. I also ordered a regular Shake Shack chocolate milkshake and it too was very small. But it also tasted "off". There was something about it that just didn't sit right. There was too much chocolate to the point you couldn't taste the ice cream flavor at all. I was going to have them remake it, but honestly, it just didn't seem worth my time. The people who work there are very friendly and kind. The place also seemed immaculately clean. But my experience was frankly rather negative. Thank you for the good times, Shake Shack! You had a good run. But there's no value to your food, and things just don't taste the same as they once did. Epic fail.
