Great breakfasts!
Janine D.

This is becoming a favorite breakfast spot. We always have great service, meet other nice customers and enjoy a delicious meal! What more can one ask? This lovely little family owned cafe is definitely worth checking out!!

My Plate! Yes, pink sour cream

Went to have brunch yesterday for the first time and I did like the service and the food. I been wanting to go there. I noticed the setting from the outside with pink tables, chairs, umbrella. It caught my eye. I had the chilaquiles with steak! Delicious! I do recommend to go and have brunch.

I was in town from Miami visiting my sister and her wife. Needed a break from my second current wife and kids."don't get married" We found this place online and yes it's small but definitely worth it . We got there and were able to get fast seating and a table. Portions were greats the food was honestly better than expected.i can't do spicy and this wasn't overly spicy. The customer service was friendly and attentive. If I'm ever in town definitely would come back when I get divorced again. I recommend calling ahead. This place is instagram worthy.

Looks can be deceiving. I didn't even finish my plate. Take your chances if it's your first time but I know I won't be going back.

French Toast

It's a very small space inside and I've seen that they also places tables and chairs outside too, recently. Before that, it was a really long wait to get inside. But that's understandable. What I didn't like was that the wait wasn't really worth it. The chilaquiles tasted like a watered-down version, little flavor and no spice at all. The eggs and rice were mediocre. I think the only good thing my mom and I had was the french toast but even school cafeterias can make good french toast. At the end, I honestly wished I just went to a Mexican restaurant because I know they wouldnt have messed up the rice this bad. I think if they put as much effort into their food as they did with their interior decorating, then maybe this would have been a 3+ star experience.

The best chilaquiles ever!? Friendly staff, cute place, parking can just be a little bit unlucky depending on when you go.

The pink floral Bridgerton inspired decoration is so girly so pink so cozy. We made a reservation and was immediately seated and water/drink order was offered. The steak was very tender. The French toast, off menu, was fluffy. The interior fits about 12 people with sidewalk seating. So it's petite. Overall, nice experience.

Chilaquiles
Sarah L.

We visited Mother's Kitchen on a Sunday at 2 PM. It was a bit busy, but for a party of 2, we got seated within 10 minutes of getting there. We both ordered chilaquiles, I ordered the green and my boyfriend ordered the split of green and red. A couple minutes later, the chef comes out and lets us know that they ran out of the red, so my boyfriend just did all green instead. Once our plates came out, we noticed that our rice was missing. We had to ask the server if rice came with our meal and they said it did but they were out, so we can substitute it with potatoes or hashbrowns. We asked for potatoes. A minute later, the server came back saying they were out of potatoes, but they have fries and hashbrowns, so we got the fries instead. It was a lot to deal with, within a matter of like 10 minutes of sitting down at this restaurant, but I get that we were within 1 hour of closing. It was just a very strange experience to have. On to the food itself, the chilaquiles sauce could have used more spice and salt. It was also weird that the chilaquiles werent topped with any onion or cilantro. I think that would've given it more flavor. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best. We would give it maybe a 6.5/10 rating. The fries, however, were veryyy good! I would have rather just had that as my meal than the chilaquiles itself. Overall, our experience was a bit lacking. Maybe we have to come back right when they open so that they don't run out of stuff? Our server was very friendly though, so I don't fault him for anything. 3 stars for being seated quick, the cute decor, friendly service, pricing isn't too harsh, and delicious fries.

Visit their other shop!

I'm not going to lie, I'm more of an Orange County girl. But it's my new mission to find all the local Long Beach hidden gems. And I hit the jackpot with mother's kitchen. This place is locally owned and operated. The owners son, Habid was our waiter and took great care of us. It's also, woman owned. The owner, Ericka also has a gorgeous vintage / antique / shabby chic shop in Long Beach. And this reflects in her gorgeous restaurant decor. (Everything is so pink, including their tacos on taco Tuesday) It's street parking. when we walked in, Habid instantly greeted us and sat us down. We came around 2 pm. They do close at 3 pm. So it's a breakfast, brunch and lunch place. They only have 5 tables. Which fill up VERY fast. I wanted to try a couple different things. So we ordered the - Potato taquitos plate (comes with rice and beans) -Chicken burrito wet style -Chilaquiles (pick what sauce you want, how you want your eggs and what cheese) and comes with rice and beans. -And a side order of home fries with onions and bell peppers (huge portion for the price) We went for mostly lunch items. Although they have some incredible breakfast items (their French toast is very popular) After we ordered all that food, the owners son moved us to a larger table so we would have more room for everything. Which was really thoughtful of him. Seriously, the customer service he provided was amazing Everything came out in a very timely manner, it was the best rice I've ever had. Wasn't overcooked or undercooked, not too salty or spicy. It had the best texture and flavor. Same with the beans. So flavorful and not masked with tons of salt Everything was perfectly seasoned and tasted extremely fresh. The prices are great. Especially for the amount of food you get. The portions are very large. When we asked about the dessert options (they don't have a lot of choices. They have things like cookies and etc.) unfortunately they were out of everything since it was the end of the day As a yelper with a long list of places I want to try, it's hard to pick places I want to try again instead of trying new places. But I 100 percent will make this place a staple. (Can't wait to get my hands on their burger and pink tacos on taco Tuesday) -I'm in love with the decor. It's seriously so beautiful. It would be perfect for a girls day brunch -The food -The prices -The customer service -And love the fact it's family owned and operated. Come support one of Long Beaches hidden beautiful gems

If you're on the hunt for the perfect girls' brunch spot, look no further than Mother's Kitchen. Just a heads-up: if you're driving too fast, you might miss this cute little gem--but trust me, you'll want to slow down for it. Everything about this place screams "girly" in the best way possible. From the adorable décor to the pops of pink, it's the kind of spot that makes you want to snap a few pictures before your food arrives. There's even a few outdoor tables in pink, perfect for soaking up some sunshine with your mimosa. The food? Good and satisfying, but honestly, the vibe steals the show here. It's more about the aesthetic and experience--a place where you just feel happy to linger and laugh with your besties. And let's not forget our waitress--sweet, stylish, and so attentive, adding that extra sparkle to the whole brunch experience. If you love a place with personality Mother's Kitchen is calling your name.

This is the decor behind one of the tables.

I felt warm and welcoming vibes as soon as we walked in!!! Charming and very cute restaurant that makes food with lots of love! Ordered the chilaquiles with both red and green sauce, the french toast, horchata coffee on ice, and the Bid Burger! The chilaquiles plate was served with a generous amount of beans, rice, and chilaquiles with eggs over easy. Both of the red and green sauces were on point! I would absolutely order this meal again! The flavorful french toast was served with 4 pieces of toast and fresh fruit and a lightly sweetened cream. The delicious horchata and coffee iced drink was refreshing and served with whipped cream. The Bid Burger was served on a warm and soft Hawaiian bun and the fries were crispy and yummy! Bid was very friendly and helpful, excellent service! I highly recommend this spot, it's a new favorite of mine! There is plenty of street parking!

This is a quaint restaurant tucked away on Orange Avenue in Long Beach and could be easy to miss. Inside is beautifully decorated. Inside has 5 tables and indoors it seats 12 people. Not ideal for large parties but a great spot for a couple since four of the five tables seat 2. Pink and peach florals are draped throughout with candelabra chandeliers. I ordered a breakfast burrito to go. Opening the bag I was pleasantly surprised at the size. Unwrapping it I was a bit disappointed feeling how greasy it was. Not something I enjoyed. I really did like this place and was hoping for a new go to for breakfast. I ate a quarter of it and tapped out. Street parking only but you will not have to walk far.

I usually order the Popeye Omelet with home fries and toast. Everything is seasoned well and the ingredients taste fresh. Other things I've tried include the Chilaquiles, French Dip, Kids Scrambled Egg Breakfast with French Toast, and Posole. Everything is classic and reliably good. You'll think, wow, I'll probably need a box to-go, but somehow you'll eat it all in one sitting! Sometimes you have to write your name down at the check-in stand out front in order to get a table. But I've never had to wait too long. The servers really pay attention to anything you might need without rushing you or asking lots of questions. So I think that's how they keep the wait time short. The vibes here are just 10/10 for a family breakfast. Our toddler likes watching the model train that circles the upper windows of the restaurant. It's busy so there's lots of pleasant background noise. You can watch the traffic go by on Lakewood Blvd. Prices aren't too steep. I've ordered takeout and delivery from here as well and never had any complaints. Parking can be hard to find in the lot right next to the restaurant but can usually be found right away in the back lot. Overall, just a nice neighborhood spot to eat.

They use a perfectly cooked over-medium egg, quality bacon, tater tots fried in wagyu tallow, and bacon jam, that's wrapped up in a delicious flour tortilla from Michelin-recommended Burritos La Palma. If you want a high-quality breakfast burrito, then high-quality ingredients are a great start. Their smoky salsa brings the flavors over the top. While some may blink at the cost of the $19 breakfast burrito, I firmly believe the cost is justified with the ingredients they use and the flavors that are put out. I encourage you to try it for yourself, particularly if you appreciate quality and if you're looking for the best. I appreciate their coffee from "Go Get 'Em Tiger". If you enjoy their food, their pizza, available next door at Pizza Parlor, is also pretty great.

After enduring weeks of record breaking heat in Long Beach, this was the perfect place to land as the Summer Breeze... Makes Me Feel Fineeee again. A very well but gently lit space that still feels cozy and spacious. The outside gives no indication of how well the inside has been designed. Great for lunch or dinner dates. Noise level was low and there's no feeling of a chaotic restaurant environment. Food/Service 1-5: 4.8 I order the shrimp and lobsters fettuccine, bone marrow as an appetizer. My company ordered the lamb burger. All dishes we beautifully plated; true works of art. Neither of us had any complaints about presentation and creativity. As far as taste and as excited as we were to dig in to our food, the ONLY setback was the lack of seasoning mainly salt. I'm aware that a Chef does their best to meet the expectations of their guest. I'm also aware that meeting everyone's expectations is impossible. To confirm my advice of needing some salt in the food I patrons the restaurant twice, two days in a row. The food needs more salt and I stand solid on that opinion. The service was great and I thanked Mel for taking such great care of us. Mel is a rockstar! Diversity score 1-5: 4 The restaurant definitely appeals to diverse crowds. It reminded of the days I frequented Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster in Harlem, NY. Go again score 1-5: 5, Absolutely. I do hope I don't have to keep bothering the server for salt and pepper.
