Food is great but I don’t want to even visit anymore because of the bathroom cleanliness (like another review mentioned). That makes the restaurant feel gross & like they aren’t taking care of other things.

07/12/25 Saturday about 6:45pm - This would be 3-stars but it's just too dirty in there. The staff was friendly, took and presented my order well. That was the best part. After I placed my order I went to the bathroom. The only clean areas were the toiletseat and inside the toilet bowl. The bathroom was as dirty as an old gas station bathroom. The sink has not been washed out. It had built up dirt in it, The walls, baseboards, and around the toilet base were FILTY. After I walked out of the bathroom, I found a table around the corner from the soda fountain. As I passed the soda fountain, I noticed that the floor was not sticky, so that was good. The corner I sat in had a two-seater table and a hole in the wall behind it. I looked down the floor alongside the wall, was visibly dirty and the baseboards all along that area, right around to the storefront window, were fifty. I got up to go wait by the counter for my food and paid closer attention to the condiments station, as it sat with the soda fountain, that seemed clean enough. While waiting for my sandwich, I noticed the visible disrepair of the back kitchen door (white with black dirt going up the lower quarter).
My sandwich was hot pastrami and provolone, with lettuce and tomatoes, deli mustard, on a white hoagie, It was flat like a panini with little lettuce and tomatoes.
This shop needs a day off to clean it from top to bottom.

A good steward of every resource! Thank you for sharing your food overages with Grace Klein Community to FeedBHM!
The nachos are unique and delicious. Simply Doritos with melty cheese slices steamed for a minute. But they are awesome. Sometimes the basics deliver. I also love to get a half sandwich of the Turkey delight. The sauce and the bread are a treat.

Bought the chicken salad.. seemed to have more egg than chicken.. Asked the counter about it.. They said who ever made it, goofed it up. End of story.

They are so nice to all of their customers. We go there so much that they know our names and our orders. If you go there you need to get the Cheese Nachos or you are missing out! 1000000000 / 10 stars highly recommend this is my favorite restaurant ever. Keep it up Mama G’s. 👍

Let me start by saying I love the sandwiches and how they are prepared. This was my first time going to this location as the others have slowly closed. There was a little racial profiling done by one of the girls behind the counter that she thought we didn't catch, but other than that, everything was good.

The food is good but there's some kind of subtle hostility with the attitudes of the people behind the counter. I've eat there several times, never had even the smallest altercation but everytime they act resentful. Very unfriendly.Imo, the owner/manager should clean house and hire people who can at least pretend to appreciate the customers.Too many nearby food choices to support this place.

Friendly staff, standard Momma Goldberg’s atmosphere, decent food. Pricey for what you get.
We love Momma G’s! The nachos are always a must with anything!
Peaceful environment not too busy at night.
