Aqeel R.

Very nice place. I like the TV mom decors. I had the shrimp and grits and they didn't disappoint. Also, our server made sure my hot chocolate had plenty of whipped cream. She even brought me a second dish full of it.

Watermelon Sugar High Cocktail
Chloe L.

The food was great, the portions were huge, and the staff was super friendly! The atmosphere was also really cool and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a great spot!

-Pancake Burrito -Chicken and Bacon Waffle
Laura D.

Classic diner-style breakfast with a cozy, comfort food feel. The chicken and waffles were good, though nothing particularly unique. I wasn't a huge fan of the maple syrup or the béchamel sauce, but the dish was still enjoyable. The service was attentive without being overbearing. Coffee options are limited to hot brewed coffee or cold brew, so nothing special, but it gets the job done. I went for Sunday brunch, and while it was busy, the wait was short and we were in and out pretty quickly.

Indoor seating and decor

My wife and I were walking around and stumbled upon this establishment. We only stopped for drinks and did not try any food. Although the food menu looked good. I had the nutcracker, which is a nostalgic drink for me. Between the music, the drinks, the decor, the atmosphere and the service, everything was phenomenal. We found ourselves singing along to old songs from the early 2000s that we used to love and had not heard in years. Such a great place and I love the old school vibes. I plan to return again to try the food next time!

Breakfast Sandwich
Zoe W.

Mom's is such a great brunch spot! Not only is it super cute inside, but the menu is unique and everything we tried was delicious! I ordered the most basic nyc dish, a breakfast sandwich - and it did not disappoint. It came on a bagel with a side of home fries that truly hit the spot. My friend got the chicken and bacon waffles and loved them just as much. The prices were very reasonable, and our server was attentive and helpful throughout. Definitely a place I'd come back to!

-Mac and Cheese Pancakes
Meri L.

Stopped by here with my fiancé and family and had a really fun brunch experience. We tried a handful of their cocktails; the Bacon Mary, Brew's Clues, Watermelon Sugar High, and Hot Girl Fall. Everyone at the table enjoyed their drinks. For food, we ordered the chicken and waffles, Bedrock pancakes, and the Mac and Cheese pancakes. The chicken and waffles were just okay for me. Not bad by any means, but not something I'd personally order again. The Cholula honey served on the side was a great touch, though, and added a nice kick. The surprise standout of the meal was definitely the Mac and Cheese pancakes. It sounds a little odd, but trust me, it works. The flavor combo is unique, comforting, and honestly delicious. Totally worth trying! Service was decent; a side of bacon was forgotten at first but eventually brought out without much hassle. Overall, a solid and memorable brunch spot with creative dishes and fun drinks. I'd happily come back, especially for those mac and cheese pancakes!

Great egg sandwich on an everything brioche bun. Great veggie burger too. Strong drinks. We loved our waitress, she was from Kentucky. Super cute and sweet and friendly and warned me about the hot sauce and suggested that I get it on the side. She saved my dish! Thank you and we will be back!

NOM NOM NOM!! This spot was absolutely delicious! Open early for breakfast, so much variety, large portions. My new favorite breakfast spot. Pro Tip! Get something savory alongside the sweet breakfast

Cinnamon Roll
Claire H.

Um yum!!!! Food: Cinnamon roll was so good! And it was in a hot pan just warmed up! And the icing just oozed and felt yummy and warm! Perfect for winter! Also the scrambled eggs were good :) Service: Quick! Friendly! Ambiance: love the fall decor!!! It was so cute inside and they were showing a movie on the TVs. Also the bathrooms were clean!

I have passed by here many times and either it's been crowded or I was not hungry. It is located in the hells kitchen area, also near by to many theaters. Came here on a weekday morning and I pretty much had the place to myself. There were like 2-3 other people there. When you walk in it's well now decorated for St.Patricks day. They have a few tvs playing movies I think Mama Mia was playing when I was there. I had seen on social media their pancakes with fruity pebbles and I wanted to try them out. I got that and a side of scrambled eggs. The pancakes were huge and had to take the rest home. They were good! Eggs were fine, nothing special. Could be a fun place for groups to come for brunch or drinks. I would come back here and try other fun takes on food they have on menu.

-Crispy Chicken and Gravy
Kathie H.

This was a great and super chill place to eat dinner and work on our taxes haha! They let us use our laptops and the wifi. The food was great, milkshake was insane, and waitress was super nice. They were playing good music and something entertaining on the tv. It's a big space so great chill diner vibes.

-Chicken and Bacon Waffle with a Mom-osa!
Brie R.

The perfect brunch spot! On the corner of a busy street and a car-less one, you have Mom's Kitchen. They're small inside, maybe 8 small tables, but they have a large outdoor dining area as well. The drinks are fun, the food is funky and delicious! From a pancake burrito to cinnamon toast French toast, they have all kinds of breakfast options. Leaning more towards lunch? No problem, they've got sweet sandwiches like a short rib melt to die for. Vegan? No sweat! Beyond veggie friendly breakfast they also carry a vegan fried chicken sandwich, given 5 stars by my husband! I also have to mention their INSANE chicken and bacon waffle, it's a must try! The servers are friendly, and you don't feel rushed. I noticed they also do trivia nights, which they list on their website. I'll definitely be back a third time when I'm feeling brunchy.

-Fried Chicken Sandwich
Lulu T.

The food was very mediocre. Fried chicken sandwich was dry, not much flavor, the cold slaw, were big pieces of cabbage chopped up, decent flavor. I added cheese to mine which didn't help with a more flavorful sandwich. Seemed like the chicken was sitting under a heat lamp? Fries were good. Steak was decent, eggs were watery. The drinks were watery imo. Chicken wings were fried a little too hard and the flavor was supposed to be Korean BBQ, I got none of that flavor profile. The food came out after a few minutes of ordering. Which leads me to believe a lot of what we ordered was premade, sitting under a heated lamp? Our server was fast and nice, but we got a few different servers/waiters. The place is clean, the bathrooms were clean. The food wasn't terrible but nothing to write home about.

The restaurant's host/hostess area is at the entrance when you walk in. Tiny yet non-problematic. Bar, indoor and outdoor seating are available. On this lovely sunny late afternoon I opted for outdoor seating. Outdoor sidewalk patio seating is much better than other restaurants. It is clear that a lot of thought was put into making this as comfortable as inside. I had a perfect view of staff outside making a few signature drinks. One was a tomato martini however I opted for a mocktail blueberry lavender drink which was scrumptious & refreshing. For dinner, the watermelon caprese and vegan pot pies were fresh, tasty and packed with flavor. I could eat this for days on end and not get bored! Can't wait to return.

Plush banquettes and small tables. The ambiance is countryfied and corn-fed. The menu is equally small. We started with the corn ribs, so called because it was a corn cob quartered and dredged with crema and cotija. It had a pleasant bite to it. The burger was small to the eye but thicker than anticipated. It came with cheese, bacon, arugula, and fries. To my surprise I ate all of it. My dining companion had the grain bowl and enjoyed it. We washed this down with a Talea IPA and a cider, can't recall the name. Service was top notch. We even had an amuse bouche, cornbread with apple chutney. I tipped appropriately.

I believe we had the Brooklyn (?) french toast, which (despite being soaked in the syrup) wasn't overly sweet, so it was the perfect balance with the other savory dishes. I'm not a big lox person so the Leo was alright for me; the overall consensus was that the cream was a little too heavy for us. We did really like the latke that came with it though, reminiscent of a hashbrown. The chilaquiles was absolutely delectable with the acidity of the salsa verde + pickled red onions and avocado. It was a busy Sunday morning, but the service was still pretty good - overall had a great experience, the only downside was my umbrella did get stolen at the front though so be mindful? They also have such a mouthwatering selection of desserts as well, so I'll have to drop by for a slice next time!

Warm, cozy, and inviting, with a relaxed vibe that made it easy to settle in and linger over the meal. Appetizers We started with a cheese flatbread, boat-shaped and blistered at the edges, the interior molten and gooey with a bright basil leaf on top. Simple but done really well, crisp crust giving way to all that warm cheese. Mains The brunch dishes were the highlight. A sizzling skillet of eggs cooked over spiced sausage came out rich and savory, the yolks just set, perfect for scooping up with the basket of warm bread on the side. The tomato-based baked eggs were equally good, a deep, well-seasoned sauce with a little heat and fresh herbs on top. Comforting, generous, and full of flavor. Drinks The blackberry mocktail was a standout, refreshing and beautifully garnished with a cluster of fresh blackberries. Always great to see a thoughtful non-alcoholic option that feels like more than an afterthought. Service Attentive and warm throughout. The team kept everything moving smoothly without ever feeling rushed. Verdict Five stars. Delicious food, a cozy atmosphere, and a mocktail worth ordering on its own. A fantastic UWS brunch spot that I'd happily return to.

We reserved for a quick bite at Redeye Grill before catching Dog Day Afternoon on Broadway, but as soon as we walked up, some bouncer told us they were closed for a private wedding reception. We were dazed and confused because how was I able to reserve online? But the real plot twist was that it ended up being the best thing that happened. We actually stumbled into Tanner Smith's thinking it'd be the typical, boring bar-food spot. Nope. They first sat us at a hi-top by the door, but that wasn't our vibe, so we grabbed seats at the bar instead. Best decision. Our bartender, Josiah, was absolutely killing it. My cocktail had passion fruit, so of course I asked my usual question: "But is it real passion fruit?" He just nodded in agreement and that told me everything I needed to know. That drink was legit and had nice strength. The food was great too. My fish tacos were packed with fresh fish, the guacamole and salsa were chunky and full of flavor and hubs enjoyed his pastrami sandwich.
