This is a diner type restaurant, nothing fancy, but prices are reasonable and the food is really good.

The Taco Salad was really good. The Onion Rings were good as well.

The Hamburgers are fantasic and so are the french fries.

If you find yourself in Green Valley, this is the place to go for breakfast and / or lonch.

Say ... I haven't been here in about a year and I used to love this place but it went completely down hill. The portion size definitely wasn't worth 15.99 and the one waitress wasn't exactly friendly either. Sad to say but I give it 2 stars

Popular on a Sunday. Great food. Sit anywhere, pay at counter. Great service.

While certainly not the best food I've eaten, it was still good but certainly not what l would consider to be great.

Upon arrival l found the exterior of this establishment to be well maintained and free of any noticeable detracting issues.

Upon entry of this establishment, I was immediately and warmly greeted upon arrival and invited to sit wherever I wanted. I found my table to be clean and well stocked. I couldn't help but notice that all of the condiments bottles on the table had been previously cleaned and we're free of debris or left over accumulated residue from previous patrons. Something unfortunately often neglected and overlooked in today's world.

My server was busier then a long tailed cat at a rocking chair convention, but still quickly made contact with me and filled my beverage order in a timely fashion. Additionally she made continuous contact with me throughout my entire meal ensuring my needs were fully met.

Based on previous Google reviews, I elected to try the chicken fried steak, additionally l ordered medium poached eggs, hash browns, and a grilled English muffin. Additionally l ordered ice water and a decaf coffee.

My food arrived shortly after ordering. I felt the delay between the time l ordered and the time the food arrived to be minimal at best, l felt it was rather quick, especially since the place was occupied at just under full capacity.

Sadly I found my chicken fried steak disappointing, it obviously was a institutional prepackaged frozen puck. Additionally I found my gravy to be thin, and obviously out of a premade, prepackaged bag of gravy powder, to be generous, it was a less than impressive imitation to real gravy. I found the poached eggs cooked well past the point of what l considered to be medium. I found my hash browns to be lacking any substantial noticeable flavor. I found my English muffin to be buttered rim to rim and grilled to absolute perfection.

In a desperate attempt to flavor the food, l added abundant salt and ample pepper to it in order to revive it.

No it's certainly wasn't the best food I've ever eaten, but it was good.
While not excessively expensive, the food prices were fair and reflective of the inflationary insanity of the world we currently live in. I did not find it valued priced nor did I find it excessively pricey.

I experienced top-notch customer service from the moment I walked in until l departed the establishment. At no time did I ever need anything and this was achieved solely by the means of the efforts of the exemplary wait staff. My coffee was simply never allowed to get low.

And while I'm not sure if I would return with any great regularity, l would still return. And this is solely based on my expectations that I thought the food was institutionally disappointing and truthfully could have been better. I personally don't believe it's extremely or overly difficult to cook real food and serve it to people versus just warming up pre-packaged institutional imitation food and pawning it off as imitation homemade food.

The restrooms are located further to the north in the same strip mall. You'll need to inquire with your server for the current access code to secure entry.

This establishment has a clearly posted NO PETS allowed policy.

The atmosphere had a feel of family and friends. The food was delicious and filling. The waitress was warm,nice,and welcoming, we even shared a few laughs! If you're in the area don't forget to stop by and visit "Mama's Kitchen" Your feel like family.

Nice little diner tucked away in the continental plaza.
Watch out for snow birds driving in the parking lot. They're crazy and bad drivers.

But if you make it to Mama's kitchen in one piece, it'll be worth it. Food is good and "down home". I'll be back to try more
