Reviews for Mama's Bakery & Deli in San Diego, CA
parked on the st a block away. 15min spot right in front. some st parking. dining is outdoor with fans and shade. order inside... and wait for food outside. I got a Chicken shawarma wrap ($10) that tasted like boiled drychicken with tomatoes lettuce andpickles. I asked the lady if this was my correct order. She took it back and brought another one. it was much better, chickenwasn't tough and it was mixed with tahini and more flavorful and saucy. The wrap bread is fresh and tasty. I could come back forthe 2nd tahini filled wrap. or just order something else The falafel plate comes with bread, salad, and hummus in a to-go box.it was all pretty good and came out to $15. I appreciate the friendly service and that they cared enough to fix my first wrap.Cold water provided outside is self service . utensils and salt also outside self service. but gotta ask for hot sauce. seatingis nice outside and is open to public too. One small bathroom in the back. Read more
Honestly, very disappointed. Had heard good things about this cute, small business and how great and ?authentic? the food is.... There is nothing authentic about canned chicken being used under the guise of chicken shawarma. The pita wasn?t anywhere closeto fresh, the rice wasn?t even bland, just shy of being considered that. Got the chicken shawarma salad and my partner got thewrap. We didn?t finish either?literally, beyond disappointed. I don?t even like grape leaves but that was the only edible thingwe ordered. Spent $50 on dumpster food that took 20 mins to make. Would highly not recommend. Alexis on 5th is lightyearsbetter?check them out because Mama?s Bakery is not it! Read more
disappointing. wanted to like, pita looks like store bought and at least 3 days old extremely hardened and not fresh at all, was... charged for items we never received, and when we called back once home, we were offered little to no recourse to solve for anyrefund for missing items. bummer because it isn?t cheap and we won?t be returning. hummus 3/5 eggplant wrap 1/5 pita 1/5tabouleh 4/5 falafel 3/5.

Disappointed. I was craving Mediterranean. Got a chicken Sharma salad and humus. Salad was basic, couldnt taste the "lemon"... dressing and the chicken tasted like boiled chicken. Humus not great, it was very watery. Def not going back. And I paid $18,def not worth the money. Read more

Excellent menu! This place has a welcoming atmosphere to chill and eat. Plenty of tables and space to feel comfortable. This... place has gyros and shawarma! It?s a deli+ Will be eating here again. Read more
Tried the Makanek Armenian sausage and Soujouk Lebanese sausage wraps. The wraps were a fair size for the price. Both types of... sausages were lean, however they were salty to the point we really couldn't taste the difference between the two. We will trythe other menu options when we return. Read more
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 inevery bite. I highly recommend supporting this local small business and show the owners some appreciation for their hardefforts. Read more
