My sister and I stopped here on our way back from Wautoma for lunch. Its a lot bigger in there than it appears from the outside. We both had breakfast entrees. I had their chicken fried steak. Let me tell you, it was huge! I haven't found one i liked since my favorite restaurant closed.... until I tried this one! Hashbrowns were perfect and my eggs were perfect. My sister had an omelet and she couldn't eat all of it. After that chicken fried steak, I was full all day!!! It was fabulous!! It was reasonably priced. It was a lot of food! We definitely will be back! I want to try out the fish fry.

To the person who mis-treated my mother when she came in to buy her take-out order. You should be ashamed of yourself! If you change your policy to cash only you should probably tell your customer over the phone when they place their order. Not yell at them in front of all the other patrons in your establishment and tell them to never come back. My mother and father have been customers of your restaurant for years. No one deserves to be treated like that. I would not eat here ever!

Ordered an order to go, they never said cash only! Wouldn't take a credit card or check! Told my wife to never come back!! Very rude!! Would not recommend to anyone! Lived in montello for 4.5 yrs only place we ordered food from, and always left a tip . We only live 1 block away. My wife is 77 and disabled. Yelled at her in front of other customers, and told her never come back! My wife cried herself sick over it. Not nice people at all!ND they did take credit cards, they just stopped.2025 you would have to look to find someone who doesn't except credit cards. Used to like this little town, but she's ruining that!

Started working today and got fired 5 hours later. Its a very toxic environment and they will not train you the right way, that explains why they are so short staffed. Girl training us didn’t train us but just threw stuff at us and told us to do it. I don’t recall thats what training is. They use bare hands when handling your food not ONCE did I see anyone wash their hands before touching food. Also you will get yelled at for messing up the smallest thing. They only wash their dishes with a jet setted sink. The “trainer” would only take orders and make us give them their food while we cleaned the tables, took the dishes, refilled cups, etc. while she got to keep all the tips. Also would not trust the syrup containers since they use the dirty table rags sitting in dirty water to clean the lids of the syrups. Overall would not work here again they aren’t sanitary, coworkers were very rude, getting fired the first day should tell you guys all you need to know!!

I had the jumbo chicken fried steak, American fries, sourdough toast and scrambled eggs. This was soooooo tender it cut with a fork, homemade gravy was delicious. The BEST I have ever had. Took up an oval plate. I almost ate it all, was to good not to try. My Mom had eggs.hashbrowns. cinnamon swirl toast. She said it was good but she wasn't feeling good to start with. Cute little cafe. Waitresses were very nice. Cook was awesome and everyone so friendly. Wished I lived here, I think we would be friends. Just felt very welcoming like customers are their friends. Would come back in a heartbeat!!!!! 2 days later we returned. Had the same thing and Mom had 1 pancake.....plate sized. Awesome again. The chef is Mama herself!!!!

First and LAST time going there. Waitress got one (of 2 people) order wrong and said she’d get the country fried steak that was missing. Then tried to charge us an extra $7.00 extra for HER mistake! This “Large” omelette is a joke. Looks like it was made with 2 eggs. It was definitely nothing special. I didn’t want the potatoes and she offered me no substitute. When I asked if I could have extra English muffins instead of potato’s, she said she would have to charge me full price. Breakfast for 2 killed $40 and I left hungry. Waitress seemed nervous or agitated also.

They were pretty busy and we had a table of 7 upstairs. Our waitress took long bringing beverages and we waited over an hour and a half for our breakfast. When our food was brought it was in intervals so we didn't get to enjoy our meal together before leaving town and 3 of 7 orders were incorrect. The waitress offered to take one of the mistakes off the bill, and at that point the person didn't even want the rest of the meal because we had been there over TWO hours. We had sent the kids to the kid zone twice already and more than half of the games didn't work/weren't plugged in.

The owner did give the kids each some money to try to keep them busy in the kid zone which was very kind. And the food that we got was good (minus the bacon).

BUT I was the last one to leave with two of the kids after someone paid the bill and heard the waitress in front of other patrons and staff talking about how she had even taken the $7 meal off and the owner had given the kids money and all she was left was $5 which I think is bull. I may not agree with the tip (I also didn't pay the bill) but we had an extremely poor experience.

I'll never go back to this restaurant. My husband and I went in October 2021 and my debit card was charged twice. We went in same day to tell owner that it was charged twice and she said yes that happens one will be put back into account. I told her I hope so since we lived hours away from there and were leaving for home next day. I waited days watching account for both charges to end up coming out of our account. I called to talk with owner and waited days to have contact with her. When I finally spoke with her I explained what happened and she told me she would send check in the mail to my address. So after a month of never receiving the check I called to speak to her again and she confirmed address to tell me she was sending it. As of today I still have never got reimbursed for one of the charges. I regret not going to my bank and just having them take care of it.

Will never come back and when we come in we always spend $100 or more in food so she just lost some good money.

Great hard working women with amazing food options and amazing service. Owner Tony remembers everyone and her main waitress is on point with the smallest details like preferring vanilla over unflavored coffee creamer. We've been eating here for over a year and have never been disappointed. Sure when they're busy the service slows down a bit, but for the price and quality we will always eat here. Mama's is also consistent with their hours unlike other Montello establishments so you know when you can eat here versus having to drive up and find out their closed.

A small unassuming place on the south end of Montello, Mama's Cafe is a perfect place to get a bite of good food. The atmosphere is casual with a small game room for kids and gaming machines for grownups too. I talked to Mama the owner and chef, and could see she loves her work and the food I had, showed it. We stopped in for the Friday fish fry, I had a combo plate with cod and fried shrimp (which was great) homemade potato pancakes, beans, coleslaw and rye bread. Waitress was friendly and service was great. DON'T go there on Tuesdays (they are closed) but any other day you'll get great food and service.

Food was good. Was pretty upset about pricing. They advertise in their menu $4.50 for kid's meal. Choice of pancake
or FT, Egg & Meat. When I got my receipt there was a charge of $6. Waitress stated there was upcharge for the Egg/Meat. Menu should indicate that.. then you are paying $4.50 for one piece of FT. My meal was $5.95 for 2.. pretty steep if you ask me. Will be going to Sparks Grill for kids food in the future. Heads up to parents.
