About Lil Mama's Restaurant

Lil Mama’s Restaurant, formerly known as Katrina’s East Mountain Grill, is known for its wonderful service and friendly staff. The restaurant offers a variety of meals, with the chicken fried chicken and steak being among the best in the Albuquerque area. The chicken is so tender it can be cut with a fork, and the hash browns and fried potatoes are excellent. The restaurant also serves large portions, ensuring that customers have leftovers to take home.

In addition to their chicken dishes, Lil Mama’s Restaurant offers Belgian waffles, which are the only ones available on the east side of the mountains. The waffles can be cooked to be crispy, and customers are welcome to bring their own maple syrup. The restaurant also serves real milkshakes made with chocolate ice cream, which are the best in the East Mountains.

The restaurant has good wheelchair accessibility, with ramps and close parking spaces. There is also ample parking available nearby, with most spots being free during the day. However, customers have noted that flies can be a problem while dining. Despite this, the service is good, and customers never run out of iced tea.

Overall, Lil Mama’s Restaurant offers excellent food and service, with a related atmosphere to its previous ownership. The restaurant’s chicken dishes, Belgian waffles, and milkshakes are highly recommended. The restaurant’s slogan, “Try it You’ll Like it,” accurately represents the quality of food and service that customers can expect.

The second time I ordered the same thing, chicken fried steak, but this time when it arrived it was a small, round, precooked patty from the freezer. I spoke with Celeste who was unapologetic in her explanation of why they changed to frozen patties, and she offered no resolution, no apology, and no discount. That failed my expectations of customer service so we will not...read full review
