About

Mama’s serves kosher Middle Eastern and Israeli-style fare, with fresh-to-order falafel sandwiches, hummus, tahini, and generous portions frequently praised in reviews. It’s a casual, no-frills spot for a quick lunch, though some sauces may contain dairy and one reviewer specifically noted that the eggplant isn’t vegan, so check ingredients before ordering.
