I'm so happy we found this gem. It's very authentic and so delicious! We've come many times since discovering Mama's and plan to continue. We order the Mannoush Supreme Combo with chicken and the sides we've ordered are: grape leaves, labneh, babaganoush, hummus and pickles. Everything has been so delicious! The chicken is white meat and very moist. The wrap comes with labneh, za'atar, tomatoes, kalamata olives. The pita of the wrap is unreal and cooked on their very old and authentic stove.

Catered our wedding party/picnic at Bird Park, of all places. Service and delivery were terrific and of course the food is the secret to our happy and enduring marriage.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mama's Bakery & Deli, and the experience was nothing short of delightful. I tried the Chicken Cheese Chipotle Wrap and Gyro Wrap, both of which were amazing. The Saja bread used in the Chicken Wrap was wonderfully fresh, adding a unique touch to the dish. I also indulged in the Nutella and Peanut Butter wrap, a sweet treat that showcased the restaurant's creativity. The Chicken Wrap was flavorful, featuring perfectly cooked chicken, while the Gyro Wrap stood out with its delicious tahini and tzatziki sauces. The service at Mama's Bakery & Deli was outstanding. The staff, especially the person who took my order, was not only efficient but also provided excellent recommendations. Their friendly and communicative approach added to the overall positive experience. Thank you, Mama's Bakery & Deli, for the fantastic food and excellent service—I'll definitely be back for more!

Have been going to this place for literally decades. This is my first time back in about 8 years. Just as good as it's always been. Very fresh food. Veggie friendly. Typically get a wrap and always love it. The bread is super fresh and tasty. I always like the mint in the wraps we get it's a great contrast. It's almost addictive. I find myself craving this place quite often but it's not very close and the hours are a little out of the norm. Highly recommend it. It's a worth the try. My personal favorite is the feta and mozzarella wrap.

Definitely an authentic experience with wonderful food, a nice ambiance to the outdoor concept, and the authenticity of the owners aggressively wonderful style. The value for the amount of food was astounding, but the quality on top of it matched in every bite. I highly recommend supporting this local small business and show the owners some appreciation for their hard efforts.

Oh mercy, this was an insanely delicious meal! I had the Ultimate Manaeesh with fried eggplant, paired with a spinach and cheese pie. I was simply just not prepared for how good this would be, and I ate myself stupid for my lunch. The Manaeesh was an overload of pleasure on the palate, and several times I hit a new little flavor pocket that made me love it even more. I ate the WHOLE thing, mostly because I was headed to the airport and could not keep it, but I'm not really sure if I could have stopped myself either way. While the Manaeesh was a pleasure assault on the senses, the spinach and cheese pie was a much more gentle experience, with a lovely creaminess that was a perfect balance to the OMG level of the Manaeesh. This is up there with some of my all time favorite meals on the planet- it's that good. Don't skip this one, it's almost too good to be true.

Mama's Bakery and Michoz are the local Lebanese competitors. Depending on my taste buds determines who is the best. I can say this, Mama's is always good and never misses the mark. Variety of choices for vegan, dairy-free, carnivores and plain eating folk. I can go on about each dish but the chicken schwarma is a Top 3. Add extra pickles and easy feta. A well-presented wrap layered with grilled chicken, green leaf lettuce, tomatoes, tahini etc. No skimping on any ingredient. Prices are comparable to a sit down restaurant without gratuity. Cash and cards accepted. Dine-in or to-go and catering services available. Wait-tinr during lunch could be up to 20-30 minutes. Other times 10-15 minutes. Street parking can get hairy but there is special parking for bicycles. Most visitors from different cultures favor this eatery.

I absolutely love this place. I’ve been coming here for years. The food is always fresh and full of flavor. My favorite thing to order is the Chicken Shawarma with Tabouli Salad. I will warm you in advance the menu is quite overwhelming on the first visit but just take your time and you will find what works for you. They has tons of options. In regards to beverages; they have a cute little refrigerator full of small batch & limited edition drinks. If you prefer a regular soft drinks I guess you’ll just have to wait until go somewhere else this place only serves the crowd favorite Rocky Mountain Soda company.
