Mama's Luncheonette

Got the Caesar salad wrap and it was super filling! I could only eat half in one sitting so this wrap can definitely be shared or for 2 meals. I wanted to try the breakfast burrito but it was only available until 12pm or when it sells out.We went around 12:45pm on a Saturday and there was a long line but it moves super quickly so don't be discouraged. The food was ready quickly too, only less than 10 min of waiting. There's no seating inside and very minimal seating outside so I would recommend eating at Moscone park nearby.

***3.5 stars***Arrived around 1pm on a Saturday and there were many groups eating/waiting outside but the line itself was pretty short and moved quickly. Waited ~10 min for our order to be ready. The breakfast items stop selling at 12pm but I'd like to try the Mama's breakfast burrito if I ever return. We shared a chopped chicken caesar wrap and Sonny's wild mushroom wrap. The chopped caesar wrap came with smoked paprika potato chips which were a nice touch. The wrap itself was alright - 3/5 stars from me. It was exactly what you'd expect: caesar salad in a plain wrap. Nothing particularly special about it.We thought the Sonny's wild mushroom wrap saved the day though! It was much more flavorful, saucy, and hearty. No seating inside, tiny grab-and-go type store. A few tables and benches outside.

I live around the corner from this place so I was stoked to have a local, quick, healthyish lunch spot open up. I've tried their wraps and breakfast burrito and I find it all underwhelming. The Caesar wrap, chicken tikka masala wrap, and lamb wrap hardly come with any protein. For nearly $20 a meal, I don't think the portion sizes justify the price. I do appreciate their ingredients in each item, and think they have a fantastic menu. If they lowered their prices and added more protein to their wraps, I'd give it another try.The matcha lemonade is delicious. For ordering at a window with a long line and only one register, they also have high default tip options, which I think it silly since it seems their pricing is already high.

Gosh, the Chopped Chicken Caesar Salad Wrap at Mama's Luncheonette definitely lives up to all of the hype that it has garnered. I visited Mama's Luncheonette with a friend on a Sunday for lunch around 12:30 PM, and there was a short wait to order food. The wrap itself took approx. 10-15 minute to be ready, which IMOP, wasn't that long given the line that existed. The restaurant itself is primarily a takeout only restaurant, however, there are a few tables outside, which, if you're lucky, are able to snag. Highly, highly recommend the Caesar Salad Wrap. The Chicken Tikka Wrap was just okay...

Finally made my way up to SF to try this place for their chicken Caesar wrap. I came around 2:15 and there was still a long line. I thought to myself "This place must be really good." This is more of a grab and go spot, but there are some tables and benches near by to sit at. The employees were so nice, when my order was ready they brought it out to me. The chicken Caesar wrap was pretty good, I'd give it a 7.5/10 but for $18 thats a pretty expensive wrap. Lots of chicken and a good amount of croutons distributed throughout. My bf peeped their mushroom wrap and I would try their chicken tikka masala wrap next time. If you're really into chicken Caesar, you would really enjoy their wrap.Fun fact, their menu is so 100% halal

Super long line around 1pm on a Saturday but it moved pretty fast. I heard so many good things about the chicken caesar salad wrap here so I was really excited to try! It tasted exactly how you'd expect (salad in wrap form), though I did like the croutons inside; overall, it was super salty (chips were realllly salty). I don't think I'd come again since the flavor didn't wow me, but I'm glad I finally stopped by to try the viral wrap! It's a hefty portion for $18 (good for 2 meals). They have a few outdoor tables but not a ton of seating.

3.5 STARSI need to start pulling a Queen Beast and packing hot sauce and condiments in my purse because our food at Mama's Luncheonette was crying out for flavor! Everyone has different palates but I'm legit confused over the hype. All three wraps/burritos we tried were bland. And, this is coming from someone that doesn't like salty foods. Opening in January 2024, Mama's Luncheonette has been on my list to try (before they went viral) and I finally had a chance to visit last week when I had the afternoon off. They took over the long-time La Canasta (Mexican). It's a closet-sized space so takeout only with some outdoor seating. No delivery. They opened a second location in Mill Valley (November 2024). Arrived on a weekday around 11:25 am with one person ahead of us in line. M E N UShort menu of breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwich, and lunch wraps. 100% halal. - Breakfast served until noon BUT per staff, brisket runs out by 11 am (even on a weekday).- The Chicken Tikka Masala and Mushroom Wraps are served after 11:30 am, the Lamb Wrap after 12 pm.F O O D* Chopped Caesar Salad Wrap w/ lemon pepper crusted chicken, lettuce, parm, della fattoria croutons ($18) // 3 Stars: https://tinyurl.com/ykz45tyh- Sub chips for fries (comped upcharge for the wait)The viral wrap was just aight. To me, the best part was the deliciously crunchy and buttery croutons. While the lettuce was fresh and crisp, the lemon pepper chicken (breast) was dry and the dressing lacked a garlicky-anchovy punch. Toasting/grilling the tortilla probably would have enhanced it. It's wild how basic things like this go viral. Subbing the chips for the za'atar fries was the right move. The standard cut fries were hot and crunchy with fluffy soft interior and earthy tang from the za'atar seasoning. Served with a creamy yogurt sauce for dipping. * Mama's Breakfast Burrito w/ tater tots, scrambled eggs, sharp cheddar, avocado, salsa ($13) // 3 Stars: https://tinyurl.com/yyup5f42- Sold out of brisket so added beef bacon (+$3) Considering their Breakfast Burrito has landed on "Best of..." Lists in the city, I had high hopes but it was disappointing. This baby desperately needed the La Vic's orange sauce treatment - it was bland. Generous amount of eggs but I prefer soft, looser curds instead of a big clump. The beef bacon was overly chewy and the tots were soggy so there was no texture contrast. All wrapped in an untoasted tortilla and served with a side of sour cream and mild salsa roja. * 12 HR Braised Lamb Pressed Flatbread w/ muhammara, sumac onions, oaxaca cheese, barberries, arugula, herbed tahina ($18) // 3.75 Stars: https://tinyurl.com/2hzfx557Best of three, the meltingly soft sous-vide lamb with melty oaxaca cheese was a great contrast against the crispy golden brown lavash. Sadly, like the other two items, it was bland - more spices please! It's served with a side of yogurt sauce. IMO, pickled onions and a garlicky toum would have elevated this Middle Eastern style wrap. If they had an option to top their fries with braised lamb, feta, and yogurt sauce...it would be BOMB! S E R V I C EBlake is the MVP! This guy makes Mama's Luncheonette with his top-tier customer service. It was about 15 minute wait for our first two items, and another 20 minutes for the last one (was given a heads up when ordering). A M B I A N C ETakeout only with five tables outside. P A R K I N GParking is rough so recommend parking at Union Street Garage a block away ($3 every 30 mins). Overall, loved the customer service and positive vibes but wasn't impressed with the food. Perhaps the hype/ratings are inflated because The Marina/Cow Hollow doesn't have many options for breakfast burritos and ethnic food like the Chicken Tikka Masala + Middle Eastern Lamb Wrap? Great that a small business IS getting so much business off a viral TikTok tho!

We've heard so much about this place so nice to finally stop by and try. Super good! Nice vibes right off Union and almost gives the NYC vibe with the line being on the street. The burrito is very good and the hash browns inside give it some great crunch. Would recommend adding bacon like I did. Service is kind. Would come back!

A small shop with long lines! My friends and I came by right before 11 to grab a quick brunch. We all opt for the Mama's breakfast burrito but they had ran out of brisket by the time we ordered. It was $3 add on but they offered turkey bacon as a substitute. I was a bit sad about that. However, I enjoyed the salsa that came with the burrito. Overall a solid, but small breakfast burrito. Still need to try their Caesar salad wrap next!P.S. there is limited outdoor seating

This best time is me time. I took myself out on a little stroll and when hunger kicked in, I was in the right area at the right time. It was a Saturday around noonish and there was already a line, maybe about 15 people. There was probably a 30 minute before receiving my order.Caesar Wrap - I love caesar salads so to put that in wrap form? Hold up. It was light, it was fresh, it was delicious.
