The Food is good; but I can't say the same for the service; I left a $2 tip for a $10 breakfast on the table and my waitress rang me up at the counter where I paid by CC. as I was walking out she yelled out..."NO TIP???". that was very unprofessional and I had half a mind to go back and tell her it was on the table, but I was too angry and didn't want to get in a confrontation. I'll go back for the food, but I will never sit in the Columbian Waitress's section again. read more

Me and my husband went and had breakfast at Mom's Kitchen. It was my first time the service was warming our server Nellie Rowder was kind and very helpful. Also brought a smile on our faces. The food was delicious portion sizes was very nice. I told my husband that it's nice that our food stayed hot the whole meal to the last bite. I would recommend this diner to family and friends. I hope the keep up the amazing work. read more

I was in the mood for Eggs Benedict so decided to try this little diner out. I am generally a fan of little diners over the higher end places when it comes to breakfast. Sadly, they only have Eggs Benedict on Saturdays and Sundays. After hearing some discussion about the pancakes from a neighboring table it appeared this would be the next option for me and I settled on the pancake, eggs, and bacon breakfast. When the waitress took my order she asked me what kind of toast I wanted with the breakfast. I was a little puzzled being the menu explicitly said it did not come with toast and I stated that to her to make sure there was not any confusion. She assured me that it did come with toast and I trusted that she was the expert. My breakfast came out pretty quick, but there was not a pancake. When I pointed this out, the waitress insisted that I did not order one. Not only did I say what I wanted, but I pointed to it on the menu. After she denied what I ordered again, I asked for a menu to ensure I did not point to the wrong thing. Sure enough, what I pointed to was the pancake, egg, and bacon breakfast. She continued to disagree that I ordered that even saying it does not include toast at which point I let her know that was why I mentioned it didn't come with toast and she insisted it did when I ordered. At that point she offered to add a pancake, but I was so aggravated that she chose to argue about what I ordered instead of fixing the issue (even if I was wrong, that should have been the coarse of action) I told her the breakfast I had was fine. She came back later to check on me and again offered to add a pancake, this time including the offer of not charging me for the toast. Really? The food was fantastic. The hash browns were nice and crispy, not greasy at all. The eggs were perfectly cooked over easy as requested. The bacon wasn't two little pieces that looked like they came from a starving cow, but a pile of thicker bacon with great flavor. This is a solid breakfast spot!!! The waitress that rung me up was super friendly. After she rung me up I expressed my dissatisfaction with the service. She offered to let me talk to the manager and I declined letting her know that I trusted she would pass on my thoughts. The breakfast is totally 5 stars. The waitress wasn't even worth 1 star. The other waitress that cashed me out gave me hope that the service was not typically like what I received so I will keep going back as this may now be my favorite breakfast place (we will see how the Benedict rates.) Prices are good. My meal was about $7 which looked liked about the typical price range for breakfast. Decor is an old style diner. The place is clean, but it is an older establishment and the decor screams that. read more

I went here last Saturday and had the BEST eggs benedict that I have ever had. Plenty of hollandaise sauce (enough to smother your hash browns with) along with two eggs sitting on top of a whole piece of ham..delicious! The down to earth atmosphere this restaurant has to offers allows you to feel completely guilt free about rolling out of bed, putting on a hat and going to breakfast...just my kind of pace for a Saturday morning, after a long week at work! read more

GREAT FOOD!!! Their breakfast hits the spot. When I lived in Olathe, I went here once or twice a month. Keep up the great work!

So disappointed. My husband & I were looking forward to breakfast here. We waited 45 mins to get our food, while we watched the family of 4 that was seated 30 seconds before us not only order, but eat, pay, leave and have another family seated at their table. Once we finally got our meals they were both cold & over cooked. I will say the owner/manager said she'd take care of our check...but, we took 2 bites & left because it was NOT GOOD at all. Eggs were discolored & our plates were just filled with grease. I think it's not only time for a clean up/makeover, but maybe some new staff as well; the server couldn't have cared less that we waited & waited while the other servers tables had food flying out. read more

Great place to eat breakfast. Love the atmosphere. Feels like an old school diner. Something I miss greatly. Everyone is friendly. Price is awesome. Pancakes were good...an added touch would help (powered sugar). Biscuits and gravy were like grandpa use to make!! Can't wait to try the fried chicken. read more

From the run down appearance I was expecting good and cheap but it was gross and expensive. We could not eat our hash browns because they had a buttery instant potato flavor. The prices are totally outlandish and a lot of things don't include sides and the menu reminds you that some things even come with "NO TOAST." read more

Good diner fare, just remember, this is a mid-western diner, not a NYC style diner and you'll be happy. The food is good, the staff are friendly, and the service is usually pretty fast. read more

eh, not sure what's going on but just had a very bad meal. I am sad to do this, but in the interest of reporting truth, think I must. We rolled in at 11 on Sunday, not busy, wow. There's a reason I guess. The waitress who has waited on me before was very surly, I gave that a pass. The food, not good. Veggie omelets way overcooked and tough, not tasty, hash browns greasy, home fries cold. Coffee was incredibly weak. Toast drowned in margarine to the point it was very unappetizing. I was bummed, this was a favorite place though I hadn't been here for a few months. I felt bad because I dragged my friend here with me. read more

Been going her a long time the last time I went there got charged almost 4$ for one cup of coffee that's is crazy asked the lady that I think Owens the place she looked at me like I was crazy and said that's the price so I think I'll be going to ginger sues on 119th street great food coffee is only 2$ read more

I will never return to this place. I was with my kids and we ordered biscuits and gravy and eggs. The waitress kept telling us our food would be out soon. The table behind us received their food, ate, paid and left before the waitress came back and said our food was next. We had been there 50 minutes, when the kid at the table next to us started gargling her eggs and gagging on her plate (her parents were cool with it), we took it as a sign and bailed. I faintly heard the waitress call after us, "Your food is up next...." read more

Wonderful breakfast & they can get your hashbrowns crispy. They have several home made pies & they are so good you will want a piece of pie to go home or for dessert. Serves breakfast till 2 & wait staff is very friendly. Small joint but great food. read more

Went here on a Sunday morning. It was super crowded and I had a little bit of a wait for a table. I also had quite a wait for my food. But the food was really good. I had the chicken-fried steak and eggs. The steak was ginormous and smothered in tasty gravy. It was fork tender and just melted in your mouth. I also got the fried potatoes which were a surprise. They were crispy little chips that you could eat with your fingers. Also had wheat toast to go with it all and was happy to see high quality bread, most diners treat the toast as an after-thought. Good place to go if you ever find yourself in downtown Olathe. read more

This is my absolute favorite restaurant! The only place that does a perfect over medium egg and they serve breakfast all day. I have never been disappointed with the food or service. read more

Mom's Kitchen - American Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

Love this place. My girlfriend and I always look for amazing diners. This is an amazing diner. They certainly don't skimp on the portions. Only one time did I have a sub-par order delivered. They quickly made it right! I don't know her name, but the server we always have always has a long pony tail. She's fantastic! My girlfriend last time ordered the chicken fried chicken. It was outstanding. I also recommend any breakfast or the open faced beef sandwich. I crave it often! You will love this place! read more

We went here because it had a 4 star with Yelp. Boy were we greatly disappointed. First off, it was dirty, Fly's in the window seal, spider webs in between the booths, dried milk on the wall in the booth area...... Our omelets were over cooked and who uses cheep american cheese slices on a omelet anyway? The kids menu was overpriced and to much food for being a kids menu, yes it was a lot of food but, a four year old can't eat a full size pancake, three eggs and two pieces of tough bacon. Hint, make it a real kids menue! The coffee was terrible and the hot water for tea was only warm. Service was good. Although there was only one other table of customers in the joint at 7am. That should have been our first clue! read more

Came in this morning and took an order of biscuits and gravy to go. Call in order was ready within 5 minutes as was told and waitress was SUPER friendly!! Got to work with my order and found a note from the waitress, " HAVE A GOOD DAY". Aww, I will now how thoughtful! Food was perfect. read more

Moved to OLathe a year ago. Always looking for a good restaurant. Drove by Mom's Kitchen many times. Finally decided to try breakfast there. OMG! This place is great!! I have really been missing out on some good food and service. I definitely will be going back. They have a great looking lunch menu also. I encourage people to go and give Mom's Kitchen a shot. You won't be disappointed. read more

Average for the first time I went. Maybe I didn't get there go to dish. Got the corn beef hash. Eh. Maybe next time I will get the chx fried steak as the waitress recommended. Service was great and food came out quick. read more

Interesting Breakfast place run by a family (non franchised)!. Food quality was good and service was excellent. No wait lines, quick service, no hurry by hosts to get you to finish breakfast (and make room for next one) and most importantly a small hometown feeling. Always love to find hidden local gems. This family owned restaurant is worth visiting though it's little off route. Lots of regular walk in customers ordering food without even looking at menu and hosts knowing their names seems like a good sign. I'll be visiting the place again when in the neighborhood. They have lunch menu too with items other than breakfast. read more

Good service except for that super loud waitress. Good food, great prices. We go to Moms almost every Sunday and never had bad service or bad food read more

Hadn't been to Mom's in over 20 years. Back in Olathe for family. Walked in and felt right at home. Friendly attentive service, fantastic Chicken Fried steak and fried potatoes like I want them. We enjoyed everyone's attitude and with great food. Mom's will be on our, "will be back" list. read more

This place is good, it's been around so long that it's just normal to eat here, I love getting what they call the shoe, biscuits and gravy with eggs and bacon yummy! The waitress are very kind, and put up with my father in law haha! Coffee is good there too, I think I know what I want for breakfast! read more

Great Sunday lunch. We split a ham and corn beef hash breakfast. Waitress was honest when asked about fish sandwich. She didn't like fish. Service was quick hostess thanked us for coming. We'll be back read more

We enjoyed the fresh pico de gallo . Traditional diner fare. Food was good with lots of choices. Prices were reasonable. I had the biscuits and gravy, which I really enjoyed. My wife said her food could of have been warmer, but the service couldn't be friendlier. read more

Starting to contribute to YELP Great service, and good food. I will go back read more

My daughter & I made it our summer quest to find best breakfast in Kansas City. Moms Kitchen overwhelmingly won the top spot. The food is always consistently awesome. If you are looking for best diner experience in KC, look no further! read more

We decided to stop in here for some breakfast. My husband went to the restroom before we left and saw a roach on the floor and a dead one beside it. He told the woman at the cash register and her comment was "oh, I know! We had Orkin out a couple of days ago so they are all probably running". So, needless to say, I handed back my leftover box and we both felt a little sick to our stomachs. We will never eat here again. read more

Delicious chicken fried steak and gravy.

This diner reminds me of the breakfast spot in my small hometown. Large portions, great menu options, and just great diner food. Highly recommend. read more

Would definitely recommend! Super friendly staff, great food and homey atmosphere. Will definitely be back

Great hot chocolate and waffles. You can't beat a place with hot chocolate and waffles.

My favorite place for breakfast! The best biscuits and gravy in town. Giant, delicious pancakes. I crave this place every Sunday morning and sometimes go at lunch during the week. My favorite thing at lunch time is the hamburger steak. Get it with a side of biscuit and gravy and cover the burger in the extra gravy so I can have breakfast and lunch at the same time! read more

I've lived in Olathe and ate at this restaurant for 16 years and have never experienced anything like I need today. An order of hash browns was supposed to have been taken off of our ticket. The alphabetical part was scratched off but the dollar amount was not. When we went to check out, the hash browns were not taken off so we questioned it. Rather than cancel the entire order and do it again, it was asked if they could just give me the difference back in cash. I agreed before I realized they were going to make the waitress pay for it out of her tip money. What type of tyrannical management is at this place of business. Has this little mom and pop restaurant really came to this. I will never take my business back to this kind of place. There is a restaurant just good about a 1/2 mile West of here. They will be getting my business from now on. My co-workers Assisted will also hear about this and I hope they go else where as well. read more

After being shown to my seat I watched other patrons receive service, even those who were seated after my arrival. After twelve minutes of being ignored by wait staff I decided to take my business elsewhere. read more

My family and I have been going to this restaurant for more than 3 years due to be living two blocks away from this location, however we moved to a new place 6 months ago so this past saturday 25th of April we decided to go and have brunch. It was 12:15 when we arrived as usual we got a table (before it was just my wife a 3 year old and me) but this time we had a 5 month old with us... so we got one table that was all the way to the back it woud it be perfect but having a baby sleeping in his carseat we coudnt accomodate in that corner so we asked to one of the ladies at the entrance if it was possible to take one booth that was right in the opposite side, they said of course go ahead.... well we were trying to fit the carseat on the booth when the waitress serving in that area at that time gave us a really bad look.... we knew she wasnt happy for us moving there so my wife told her sorry we are moving here we asked the lady at the front and she said it was ok... well she look at us and said in a rude way... WELL I JUST CLEANED THAT TABLE TWICE ALREADY, BUT WHATEVER... well my wife got upset and told her AGAIN we asked and they said is fine.... So she keep giving us that bad look and said again.. WHATEVER I DONT CARE BUT JUST SO YOU KNOW.... YOUR FOOD IS GOING TO TAKE A WHILE 'CAUSE FIRST I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF MY COSTUMERS and she pointed to some people behind that table. We said OK, no problem and moved to the original table but we were so hungry and mad we coudnt believe how bad this lady was so we decided to walk away and go to another place. When we were leaving the place our original waitress was coming with our water, we didnt want to say anything to her because we were mad, my wife just said sorry we decided to leave and we walked away, we love this place the food is great and the environment make us fell like home but we hate when people doesn't know how to treat costumers. I was looking for an email adress or something in their website to put my complain, I want to know what manager thinks about this service but i coudnt find any so thats why i decided to post it here. I dont know if this lady was new and i coudnt see her name but if you ask around about the family that walk away really upset you will probably find out who this lady was, I hope manager sees this and teach your people to be nice to the costumers. I think when people walk into your restaurant they should be consider costumers, if i am being move to another table i dont see the point why the waitress taking care of that section gets mad... for us the solution was easy, we were assigned to another table before,... they told us it was ok to move to the booth so why dont said to waitress of the original table we got to take care of us? why this other waitress has to get mad... and say... i already clean that table twice ? doesnt she wants money? isn't she needing tables? for what i understand the more tables you get the more money/tips you also get? read more

Poor service, poor food, and tried to overcharge me by $6.00.

Ok, first time there was on a busy Sunday, Mother's day. Ordered an omelette. Other customers who got there after me, got their food before me. Omelette came out cold compared to hash-browns on same plate. Cheese used in Omelette looked like 2 pieces of slightly warmed over velveeta. Never going back. read more
