Our group got the “Mama’s Madness,” which included two large pancakes, three eggs, three sausage links, three strips of bacon, hash browns, and a side of sliced bananas, strawberries and blueberries. At the time we went, it was only $13.50! The restaurant is clean and bright with friendly servers. The atmosphere was calm and quiet with no music playing in the background, which aided some lovely conversation. First time in Gallup, but we’ll be repeat customers of Mama’s Kitchen!"

Seated at the bar and had the best experience ever. You have never seen a faster moving crew than these gals. Not a motion wasted, or a guest left unattended. And the most beautiful food! Perfect bacon, huge pancakes, dusted French Toast. You will love it, we did."

We went for brunch as we were passing through. It was very busy but, we were seated immediately. At the time of our visit the coffee machine was broken and they weren't serving coffee. The wait staff was prompt and friendly. Our order came out in record fast time. George had a sausage/ham/cheese omlet with hash browns and toast. The omlet was beautifully prepared with chunky ham and sausage with American and white cheese, hash browns were a bit under browned. I had 1/2 biscuits and gravy with eggs and a side of bacon. The biscuits were hot and fluffy, gravy was creamy with plenty of sausage, the bacon was actually crisp. Our chocolate and white milks came out cold and with the food as requested. The food was up before I thought they even got the ticket. The restrooms are clean but, only 1 holers. We enjoyed our food and will return if in the area again."
