We came to Mom's Kitchen before a dance competition that we knew would have us sitting for SIX HOURS, so we needed a good brunch to help us get through the day! I didn't even realize this spot would be open early enough for us to enjoy some strong mimosas before our long day, but what a pleasant surprise! We were greeted warmly, seated right away at a nice corner table, and our drinks came out quickly. Before we knew it, we were ordering food, and it arrived shortly after. I had the steak and eggs, while my sister ordered the chicken and waffles. Let me tell you, the steak and eggs were SO GOOD! I was genuinely impressed because I don't usually order steak anywhere other than a steakhouse, lol. !! They cooked it perfectly and exactly to order. It was so delicious that we ordered another plate for a friend who was joining us because we already knew they would love it, too! The food, service, and overall atmosphere were all on point. Everyone was great, and the vibes were fun and welcoming. Then, on our way out, we stopped by the bar to take a few shots to officially seal off our brunch, and the bartender was AMAZING! The energy was just as good at the bar as it was at our table. Mom's Kitchen definitely delivered on the food, drinks, and vibes! If you're looking for a fun spot for an early morning brunch in Manhattan, especially in Hell's Kitchen, I would absolutely recommend checking this place out. I'll definitely be back! read more

I used to come to Mom's Kitchen & Bar pretty often when I lived in NYC, so coming back to New York and making this one of my stops was a must. Thankfully, the food was still really good! I got the buffalo mac & cheese balls, veggie burger and a passion fruit margarita with a coronita during happy hour. The margarita was GOOD lol and definitely did its job . The buffalo mac & cheese balls were probably my favorite, especially with the Sriracha ranch. My boyfriend loved them too and ended up getting the burger as well, but swapped the veggie patty for beef because he liked all the toppings and condiments. Our server was really friendly and service was good overall. My only complaint was cleanliness. The table we sat at was sticky and I noticed quite a few other tables that looked like they needed a more thorough wipe down. The restrooms could've been cleaner too. Still glad I came back though. The food definitely didn't disappoint! read more

What a super fun experience! Mom's Kitchen has such an eclectic, diverse menu that it was almost impossible to decide what to order. I ended up with possibly the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had -- Taylor ham, scrambled eggs, pepper jelly and cheese on an everything bun. Absolutely delicious. The mimosa was embarrassingly large, but I gave it my best effort. And the coffee was exactly what breakfast coffee should be: good and strong. With about a million places to get breakfast in NYC, the best compliment I can give is that I would absolutely come back here again. read more

I visited this location for brunch with a friend that lived nearby. Loved the theming of the restaurant. The decor was fun and nostalgic, and the menu had some great call-backs and references.

It is FUN to be at Mom's, especially during a day where there are others at the restaurant. The vibes kinda increase when everyone's energy feeds off of each other. Music is always pumping. The service is great at Mom's. Everyone is so helpful. The food is delicious. Maybe the sweet items have too much sugar but yolo ig? My main gripe is the pricing at Mom's. You won't get a bang for your buck, but you'll have a good time. Maybe that's all that matters? Idk up to you. read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

What a cute spot! Mom's Kitchen & Bar has another location in Astoria, which I think I've been to (though I can't quite remember). They don't take reservations, so it's first come, first served, but it's very kid-friendly with fun, quirky decorations. Service was great, friendly and attentive. I wasn't in the mood for dinner since I had a big lunch, so I went with a breakfast sandwich, which came with a choice of home fries or salad. The food was decent, but the flavors were a bit on the bland side, so I found myself reaching for ketchup, pepper, and hot sauce to give it more kick. read more

Extremely understaffed! 2 servers for a huge area PLUS outside dining! Waited 10 minutes before anyone even approached my table. Water never refilled...asked busboy for more water..never came back! Had to flag down the over--worked waiter to get my check. Other server ended up bringing it. Fried Chicken Sandwich was huge....but very overcooked. Did not think the chicken was freshly cooked...would have been much hotter...and not so tough...being a chef I notice these things. VERY noisy...just not my vibe...doubt I will be back. read more

I will say- the ONLY downside of this place, is they don't take reservations. Everything else, was awesome and I can't say enough good things. Started with the heavy metal fries, they were great, everyone loved them. My brother and I had the short rib Cobb salad which was a really big portion that had SO MUCH short rib on it. Kinda spicy, but not too much. My husband had the pancake burrito and he won for best meal. The burrito was massive, and was the most unique but fun and yummy thing on the menu. Service was great, we all got a drink, and we got there as soon as it opened so we didn't have to wait! By the time we left at 12 pm, the line was out the door. read more

Surprisingly- so freaking good for a touristy spot. The drinks are STRONG. The food comes out super fast. Multiple employees are ensuring your waters are filled and plates cleared asap. Fast and efficient. The shrimp and grits were so savory and cheesy- the kind of craving you can't stop eating when you're full. Great brunch spot. Come early to wait less. Once it gets busy there's a line and no where to wait inside. read more

Love mom's for fun cocktails and all day brunch! I hadn't been to mom's in a while but actually came here twice over the past two weeks! Once at the bar and once for some late night bites. Both times we had good service and lots of fun! My favorite cocktail is the watermelon sugar high. It tastes just like a sour patch watermelon! I also tried their buffalo wings for the first time and they were great. Super crispy and great flavor! The only negative is that 6 wings were $18, which I think is overpriced, even for midtown. They are advertised as jumbo wings, but mine were normal sized. I would definitely suggest Mom's for drinks and good eats! read more

Mom's Kitchen & Bar (NYC) - Stopped here for lunch and absolutely loved it. I had the Short Rib Grilled Cheese with fries and a coffee, and everything was delicious. The vibe is what really makes this place--part diner, part bar, with a fun retro, beach-themed "Mom" atmosphere. My favorite movie is Jaws, so it was cool to find a Jaws lunchbox on my table serving as a holder for the salt, pepper, ketchup, and other condiments. I even showed my waiter my Jaws wallet and the Jaws wallpaper on my phone, cause I'm a dork. Then, in the back dining room, I spotted Neil Diamond's Moods album on the shelf, along with several other albums I own and love. What a cool place. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and yes--the food was excellent, too! read more

Moms Kitchen & Bar is such a cute spot that you have to experience at least once. Yes, it's off the beaten path, so I wouldn't recommend walking there from 6th Ave, but catching a Lyft fixes that. They serve breakfast all day and have so many different menu options. I ended up ordering the Woodland Omelette, which was light, flavorful, and nicely balanced with the Gouda cheese within and the Bechamel sauce on top. I wasn't a fan of the breakfast potatoes, but the salad was a delicious substitute. The Short Rib Cobb Salad was highly recommended, and the short ribs were tender and the sauce was great! Some other items that were ordered were the siege sausage, which reminded me of kielbasa sausages in look and flavor. They also offered Texas Toast, and Sour Dough but the Multi-Grain Toast was a nice addition, as it was thin and light. Our server Emily was courteous and pleasant to interact with. She provided excellent service. Great atmosphere and a nice spot to have brunch. We'd love to go back. read more

Came to mom's for lunch after reading the reviews. It was ok. For lunch the music was bumpin pretty loud to the point it was hard to have a conversation. Our server was friendly . I ordered the chicken sandwich. Sadly it was not good. They breaded chicken seemed liked it was pre cooked and sat under heat lamp for a while. Has not that hot and seriously DRY! Slaw was kinda sparsely on the bun. I knew when it came out as fast as it did that there was no way that chicken was just cooked. I have cheffed enough to know. Sadly after food was dropped off never saw server again till we were ready to leave so my iced tea sat empty for most of the meal. read more

I found this spot on yelp and knew that it was a place I wanted to visit when we arrived. There wasn't a wait so we were seated pretty quickly. I love that they had a chill music mix, but then the kid movies playing on the screen. on the walls, they had different celebrity moms hanging up. I did the short rib Cobb salad, my mom got the short rib dinner with mashed potatoes and a salad on the side, and then my daughter did the chocolate chip waffle. I was pleasantly surprised with how good the short rib was and how it transferred to each meal differently. And for my drink, I did the spice up your life. It was delicious. It had the spiced rim and the jalapeños inside. It was a very good drink and refreshing as well. I would recommend this place. The staff, the service.

Mom's Kitchen & Bar 701 9th Ave. New York, NY 10019 Cinnamon French Toast Chicken & Bacon Waffle Bedrock Pancakes Located on the corner of 9th Avenue and West 48th Street just minutes away from Times Square is a locally owned bar. What makes this spot stand out from a majority of their competitors is its expansive all day brunch menu. Check out a few of the plates I explored. Cinnamon French Toast: This specialty French toast is topped with apple compote, cinnamon toast crunch crumble, and whipped cream. Each bite sent my taste buds to paradise. There is so much flavor you can either have them as is, or feel free to pour as much or as little syrup as you desire. Chicken & Bacon Waffle: It's time in indulge in this southern classic. Comprised of four triangular Belgian waffle slices, it also includes boneless fried chicken with tender white meat and slabs of crispy bacon hidden beneath. The béchamel sauce and cholula honey are the backbone to this breakfast plate. Bedrock Pancakes: These pancakes are a page right out of history. There was a variety of berries and a side of whipped cream with fruity pebbles toppings. The popular cereal was also mixed in with the pancake batter, which added more flavor, sweetness, and a slight crunch. And I had a yabba-dabba-doo time clearing this plate! As a bonus, this bar has several retro decorations. Most of the patrons should instantly recognize this gnarly memorabilia. It's like visiting an antique shop where you get to admire this awesome merchandise from prior generations. Outdoor seating is available, but I highly recommend dining inside so you can admire the souvenirs. This was a flawless experience exploring breakfast at a bar and it surpassed my expectations by a long shot. #momskitchenandbar #midtownmanhattan #timessquare #breakfast #bedrockpancakes #pancakes #FrenchToast #cinnamonfrenchtoast #waffles #chickenandbaconwaffles #localbar #foodstagram #nycfoodie #LocalSpots read more

I'd passed by this place off and on for years, both from dating a guy who'd lived in the area at the time and more recently when I was working at a job assignment nearby. On my last day of work before an involuntary but inevitable layoff, I decided to finally go check it out. With a name like Mom's, I expect good food. This place did not disappoint. I had a chicken avocado salad, Mac and Cheese and got a S'more Money, S'more Problems milkshake (I took that to go). The food was wonderful and good portion size though not cheap by a long shot. They have a location in Astoria that is supposed to deliver to me via 3rd party apps but no chicken avocado salad or s'mores shake to be found on those menus. Maybe they do direct ordering and would come to my apartment? Nonetheless, it did have a good vibe on a Friday night, service was on point and they had what sounded like some good mock tails (because I don't drink for various reasons). If someone else were paying or I finally got my market value in the workplace and I was in the area, I'd definitely come back. read more

When I went to New York, this was the first place I sat down and ate. This place was recommend by our friend. Food: 4/5 We ordered the breakfast sandwich and woodland omelette. The sandwich was on a sesame bagel bun and the eggs were pretty good. It also came with a side of potatoes that were a little dry and bland. The omelette was tasty as well, but nothing spectacular. Price: 3/5 This place is a little pricey for the quality and quantity of food. Probably because il from LA and breakfast food is a lot cheaper, but I feel like I could've gotten this breakfast sandwich from any random bagel shop/breakfast cafe for half the price. Also the portion sizes are a little small. Service: 5/5 The service was delightful. We got seated immediately and our server greeted us right away. We got our food pretty quick.

Popped in here for breakfast. Cute local place. Cutlery & napkins are in lunchboxes. Good vibe & reasonably priced.

It may not be trendy and bougie, but it's such a fun brunch place. Plus good for other mealtimes, since the brunch menu is served all day. Pretty much everything I tried was delicious and a good sized portion. Fried Cheese Curds: This feels mozzarella stick adjacent. It's deep fried and the inner cheese is gooey. But it's more cheddar like. Though with the marinara sauce, it starts to taste very much like a mozzarella stick. Recommended for cheese lovers. Chicken & Bacon Waffles: A very indulgent brunch choice. The traditional chicken and waffles is delicious, so it's even better with bacon. And that creamy bechamel sauce makes it very indulgent. It was so rich and filling, I could only eat about 2/3. Though maybe I shouldn't have eaten all those fried cheese curds before... Short Rib Grilled Cheese: Love the tender and nicely sauced short rib. It's pulled apart texture, like pulled pork. Great against the neutral flavor of the thick white bread. The cheese adds a nice extra indulgence to the mix, Crispy Chicken & Gravy: Very plentiful portion. Tons of chicken, all with nice crispy exterior. I like adding the gravy one bite at a time, so the chicken remains crispy. Mac & Cheese: Even as a little side dish, this is great. Got a good amount of cheese to all the mac. Perfect for just a taste. Pickle Slaw: I'm normally not a coleslaw fan, but I do love pickles, so I gave this a try. A nice favorite! Fresh and crispy, with tastes of pickle juice and dill throughout. Also, I think there were tiny bits of chopped pickles. Home Fries: Fried potato pieces with some onions and peppers. Not as memorable as the other sides, but solid, especially if you're getting something brunchy. Strawberry Shorty: Do not sleep on the milkshakes here! So creamy and delicious. Love the vanilla base against the strawberry syrup. Plus nice chunks of cake in the mix. Pretty filling, so good to share with some you love who loves sweets. read more
