Well done! New owners, new looks, new menus, and WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT! This upscale-casual restaurant has a playful vibe and great food served in ample portions. Works for Sunday lunch / brunch, dates, or even casual business meetings (though it is a little loud for that for me). Kitchen is pretty open so you may be able to see what's going on in there if seated near it. Also has a lovely outdoor space -- though planes flying overhead may disrupt part of the ambiance. There are outlets under the bar if you need to do a little coffee shop work or reinvigorate your phone's battery. Full bar.
Excellent! We just had breakfast here. We were seated immediately and also served immediately. Our waiter, Tony was such a delight so early in the morning. Clean establishment, freshly made food. The hash browns were so good! Yummy pancakes! Highly recommend if you are a visiting the area.

My first time to dine here and I was not disappointed. The chef's veggies were some of the best seasoned and sauteed I have ever had! The liver was cooked to perfection and the glazed onions, which were amazing, covered my large portions. Kudos to all!

Very welcoming atmosphere...Friendly smiles when we walked in.
The one issue with the Utensils was quickly corrected and everything from there on out was SUPER GOOD!!!
The Liver and onions was amazing and I loved the onion rings topping the cooked liver and onions.
The Gulf Coast Shrimp were HUGE!!! Excellent seasoning and tasty...so my hubby said????????
They serve fresh squeezed lemonade so an Arnold Palmer may need more sweet tea than lemonade to keep it from being a little too tart to taste. BOTTOM LINE:::: LOVE IT!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Will likely visit again when we're in town!!!!

Home style perfection ????Good food, 10/10 warm atmosphere, great bar.
My family's first visit since its remodel, and it's a welcome change. Inside is just like home, Mama's Cafe is as sentimental and warm- and all of the food is exactly what it should be, things you would eat at home done BEAUTIFULLY and slightly elevated.
The menu was simple, fresh, and trendy. Good for a date night or for a family treat because all of the food is something the kids will read, recognize, and eat.
The patio was updated- and it's absolutely beautiful. Picturesque, romantic, quiet, and inviting. We listened to the rush of a rock wall water feature, and while I missed the jukebox feeling from before the remodel- it was still cozy and accepting of the sounds any well behaved children make. Almost every table had a small child, it felt like, and couldn't have been more welcoming and teeming with life.
Cocktail, Stormy Night, my wife and I ordered was the best we've had in ages. We are both former bar tenders, and really appreciated the presentation, freshness, balance of flavors- and *correct pour, delivered by the bar back. Just. Right. ????✅️
Professional. Bartender.
We're headed back for date night, I have to try a "Boozy Coffee". Thank you all!????

The menu has many great options to choose from with large portions. I really enjoyed the food! ????????
The design of the interior is super nice! It’s a great cafe with an open kitchen. I would like to sit in the back area next time because I like quieter places when eating.

We made it in in less then 20 minutes on a Saturday afternoon. We were happily surprised by the quality of the food. It was all delicious and the drinks were good! Highly recommend for anyone in the area. We will be back for sure.

BRO!! Mamas is amazing.
We had a very late lunch, so we had the space mostly to ourselves.
There’s a lot to draw the eye, not least of which is their show stopping diner fare.
I wanted very much to order with my stomach and not my brain after reading over their whole menu.
I decided on a meatloaf sandwich with their homemade biscuit, while my friend ordered their variation on a club sandwich and a stick-to-your-insides side of mac’n’cheese.
And although happy hour didn’t start til 3pm, we couldn’t say no to hibiscus mimosas and one of San Antonio’s best lavender libations.
Mamas cafe has absolutely skyrocketed to too 3 of my favorite San Antonio restaurants.
