    Country fried steak
    Sarah S.

    This is my go-to post-night-out diner, which I've been frequenting for years. That being said, I don't know why it only has 2.5 stars? It's a diner, not a fancy restaurant. You definitely get your bang for your buck here, and the food is good. Last Saturday, a friend and I came in around 10:30 and were seated promptly. You know how after a night out, your body craves something of substance? Well, I was in need of some warm, filling homefries, and what I got was even better. Their breakfast potatoes are moist and flavorful--I didn't know I preferred actual potatoes over homefries until now. These babies were served with a delicious country fried steak smothered in gravy, over-easy eggs, and toast. You could tell that the steak was high quality from its flavor and texture, and it had a crisp breading on it. All 4 of these things complemented each other nicely, and along with some OJ and coffee, I was a happy camper. My friend got the southwest omelette, which she enjoyed. I do believe this place is highly underrated. It may be simple, but it is yummy.

    Crab bisque
    Laur V.

    This is a nice family restaurant that I used to go to with my mom and daughter 25 years ago! We enjoyed our meals then and it's still good today. I hadn't been there since I moved back. The food was great and our waitress was fabulous! Still the nutcrackers around too. Felt so comfortable. I had leftover pork roast and stuffing to bring home. It was tender and the gravy was very good. I also had a nice salad that I chose to bring home for later. My friend had the BLT with chips which she enjoyed. The crab bisque was thick and rich with a lot of pieces of crabmeat. It was very tasty. Now I'm back I Webster I will be coming here more often!

    Lentil soup with touch of Tabasco
    Paul V.

    This place reminds of bygone days diners type restaurant. Service was good and lentil soup was refreshingly tasty you do not find that at many places who serve that. My associate ordered Greek salad see picture which was really mouthwatering good. My sandwich was ok . My Tabasco addition makes it spicy, It was a quite afternoon at 1 pm so we had good business meeting.

    It was a busy Easter Sunday morning. It was me, my wife and our baby daughter. They were able to…read moreget our food to us in a very reasonable time. I had the country fried steak and my wife had the lemon ricotta on French toast with strawberries. Both were very good. The place is clean and homey.

    This is my second time trying Mama Lor's since we have moved to the area, I've been underwhelmed…read moreboth times. I have ordered two different omelettes on two different occasions now: an egg white with spinach and mushroom and a meat lovers. Both were quite overcooked and the meat lovers seemed like a thin sheet of egg that they filled with toppings later on like a crepe. Additionally the meat lovers side of rye toast was obviously burnt but still served to me, I just ate around it for a few bites and gave up. My husband ordered fish and chips the first time - I thought the batter was tasty and enjoyed it though I think the filleting of the actual fish could have been a lot cleaner. This item is the only reason my review is not a one star, I thought it tasted good. The second time he ordered clam chowder and a salad that had chicken, fruit, nuts. The salad was fine nothing wrong but not a stand out either it seemed similar to something I'd get as a salad kit from the store. The clam chowder though was awful, so thick and gelatinous it seemed like it was canned which is already a red flag but one of those canned soups that you're supposed to add water to and like they forgot to do that part. On top of being weirdly thick it was also cold you can tell they didn't heat it thoroughly whether that was in a microwave or not though I can't really tell. I truly don't understand the hype or reviews for this restaurant given we've tried multiple items and for the most part fell flat with the sole exception of the fried fish. I was disappointed given the expectation from other reviews and unfortunately we won't be back for a third try.

    I went in with reasonable expectations, this is perfectly acceptable, edible, I'd eat here again…read morefood. There's lots of parking. I was actually surprised how large it is inside. I met a friend I haven't seen in probably nearly 17 years for lunch on a Friday. We never felt rushed or pressured to hurry up. I didn't notice much of a wait but it was nearly always full. A good indication of quality. When you first walk in there's a dessert case and they all looked tasty. I knew I was in a good place. They serve breakfast all the time. Score. I had a Swiss cheese omelet I requested it well done because I don't like it runny or slimy-it still was and that's really why I didn't give a 5. I didn't want to be a pain and send it back so I dealt with it. I ate the whole thing, I just wish it hasnt been undercooked. I got the breakfast potatoes. They are exactly perfect the way I like them, some bits nice and crispy and other bits soft but cooked through. (I'm going to come here again because of the potatoes). I had a grilled hard roll and coffee. They offer flavored creamers which I like. My friend got ham and two eggs but added a third with toast. She liked her food as well. I got two slices of rainbow cake to go. Let me tell you-it was fantastic. My mom and I both liked it a lot except this is going to be oddly specific, the blue and green layers, the frosting on the back of them has something EXTREMELY crunchy in the frosting. It felt like those little hard decoration balls and they were very unpleasant. My mother also commented about something crunchy in the frosting so she didn't care for it either. Another reason I didn't go full 5 on my review. The frosting on the other layers up was fine. It was really tasty. The cake was moist and not dried out. I noticed it was pretty popular. The service was good. It was really busy and we tried to flag our server down a few times and she didn't see me and that's okay we were there for two hours and she had a large section and like I said we weren't exactly campers but we were catching up and we weren't her priority and this is perfectly acceptable. Both my friend and I having been in the food industry for over 20 years completely understood. Our needs were never not met. We had what we needed and didn't have to wait long on refills on drinks ever. We will meet again there since we both had a very positive first time experience.,

    The BEST waffle that I have ever had…read more I really admire the owner's drive to excel. It is beyond obvious the amount of time he has spent (and spends) cooking to make his already delicious food even more so using only traditional ingredients from Belgium. I also greatly appreciate all of the attention to detail; especially the quality of the fruit even when it's not in season. Thank you. Furthermore, I love that it's a house. It's quaint and brilliant to start small when starting a new venture. All of the staff was kind and gracious. Thank you again. On a separate note...I am utterly disgusted by the amount of negativity and ugliness in some of these reviews. Yes, we are are all entitled to our opinions. However, when you walk through someone else's front door you are entering the heart and soul of them. It is just sad that some have nothing else to do with their time than to just be negative. I, for one cannot fathom how brave and challenging it is to own a restaurant. I wish that some of the gloomy pessimistic unfavorable weak internet bullies would give it a try. Until then stay in your lane! Cheers for these waffles, kindness & grace.
