Met up with our daughters for a quick lunch. The menu has a lot to chose from. Really was a challenge to pick something as it was our first time here. The Beverly salad was a bit underwhelming. Steak was flavorful and the greens were crisp and fresh but overall the cilantro dressing and the balsamic dressing don’t mix well. The omelette was good as were the birria Benedict’s. The French toast were the tasty surprise. Staff is super nice. Location is busy might have to wait depending on the day. Hopefully we pay another visit to see if my rating can move up or down.
First time going to Madre’s. Got the chilaquiles verdes. Little dry, so I recommend asking for extra green sauce in the side. Atmosphere is so so. Doesn’t really feel like you are in a restaurant. Our first waitress was fine. Second waitress who took over was not so attentive. Not worth the price point. Overall OK, but I think there’s better options nearby.
Amazing service provided by Cari, she was so attentive & she had the best recommendations. Based on her recommendations, we tried the Special Coffee Flight with Oatmilk, Americano, Pastor Omelette, Chilaquiles Verdes with Chicken, and Nutella French Toast.
We will start with the Special Coffee Flight which consisted of 4 sweet drinks: Mazapán iced coffee, Horchata iced coffee, Pistachio iced coffee and Abuelita iced coffee. The Mazapán iced coffee was a little textured for me since it had chunks of Mazapán in it and I wasn’t a fan. The Horchata iced coffee was satisfying & I loved it. It was the right amount of bittersweet. The Pistachio iced coffee was way too sweet & had only a touch of pistachio. The Abuelita iced coffee was on the bitter side since it tasted like straight cocoa. Americano was a simple brew.
Pastor Omelette was delicious and super filling. It was packed with meat & had the right red salsa to compliment it. Chilaquiles Verdes were also delicious but not spicy. You definitely need to order more salsa on the side if you want them on the wet side however the chicken was a perfect addition. Nutella French Toast was top tier!! It was the star of the show although it was sweet.. the fried plantains took it to another level. The slices were huge and easily shareable amongst 2 people.
Overall listen to your servers, Thank you Cari for the amazing suggestions & letting us know that this establishment is known for appealing to the sweet tooth. Next time I will ask for an Americano or espresso since I enjoy my heavy coffee flavored drinks. I will definitely be returning to this location or another as they are so welcoming & keep you updated with their wait time. You could wait 45 mins to be seated so join the waitlist in advanced through the Yelp app. Also once seated they will bring your food as quickly as possible.
The food was so delicious! We tried every flight of drinks they had and they were all fancy looking and delicious. It was quick getting seated, we didn't have to wait at all. Service was great and the food came extra quick. I highly recommend.
The food here is delicious. But my favorite was definitely the coffee. Wow, hands down, best lattes I've ever had! Champagne Flights were delicious. Margarita flights were delicious and very generous with the tequila.
I highly recommend coming here. It's definitely worth the wait. If you want to avoid the wait, come during the week. Service by staff was warm and welcoming. They genuinely were happy to see everyone who walked through the door.
