Mama's Egg House is a standout breakfast destination located in the serene setting of Idyllwild-Pine Cove, CA. This charming eatery has garnered rave reviews for its delicious and hearty offerings, capturing the hearts—and appetites—of locals and travelers alike. Visitors rave about the extensive menu, featuring delights such as the Manny's Omelette packed with chorizo, nopales, and avocado, and the highly praised Chicken and Waffle which leaves a lasting impression.
Freshness is a hallmark at Mama's, evident not only in their dishes but also in the acclaimed Sunset Lover Juice. Patrons appreciate the generous portions, ensuring you can savor each bite—often enough for two meals, making the relatively higher prices seem justified. As an added bonus, the large outdoor patio allows diners to soak up the natural beauty while enjoying their meals.
The service is commended for being both friendly and efficient, enriching the overall experience. With a captivating ambiance and mouth-watering dishes, Mama's Egg House is quickly becoming a must-visit gem for breakfast enthusiasts. I wholeheartedly recommend this delightful spot to anyone seeking a satisfying meal in a picturesque environment.

I ordered the Manny's Omelette, which has chorizo, nopales (catus), mushrooms, red onion, pepper jack cheese, and avocado. I ordered mine with hash brown, and instead of toast, I paid 2 more for a biscuit and gravy. The gravy was delicious!!! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area.

This place was amazing! The food was delicious, but the juice was my favorite! We went two days in a row just to get the Sunset Lover Juice. I really enjoyed that the juice was fresh, sweet, and healthy. We sat outside with our two dogs and had enough space.

Idyllwide , CA The vegan food here was soooo delicious. The portions are huge so the entrees at approx 20 each could possibly be 2 meals. Mountain town on the PCT so this restaurant attracts the thru hikers.

We have been here 3 times already, which means the flavor of the food is so Delicious!! Their Chicken and Waffle is oh my so mouthwatering good!!!! Their French Toast is delicious as well.... we have ordered the Country Fried Steak, the Chile Relleno Omelette, the BLT, the Bacon Burger, and everyone has been satisfied and pleased with the taste of their food! Top it with a glass of fresh squeezed Orange Juice and oh my... it’s a wonderful breakfast. It is a bit pricey but we really enjoy our time eating at the outdoor sitting enjoying the fresh air of nature! I can honestly say that everyone in our party recommends this place.

EASILY top 10 best best breakfast places in America, for classic items like Benedict or the rib eye and eggs. Drinks are marvelous too. We had the ahi tuna salad, the waffle and bacon, rib eye steak was maybe the best ever. Gravy and biscuit combo was so good. Plenty of parking around. The huge patio terrace is so cute too. Service is kind and very effective in this absolute hit. A hot spot I would blindly recommend to everyone passing by!

I wanted to not like this place because the price for the quantity seemed high, but the execution on the flavor of the cocktails for lunch and the salad was exquisite. Kudos to Juan for making some truly remarkable beverages. The Hibiscus Margarita and The Empress Lavender Lemonade drink were memorable, refreshing, and so tasty. You can see the effort that went into these quality drinks. I was pissed that the side of fries were 7. There were like 40ish fries. We also ate there for breakfast. Felt it was pricey but we’re here in the mountains, it basically tourist pricing so I figure we gotta deal with it and be grateful to be here. Still giving them 5 starts.

My partner and I had planned a brunch with his family here over the weekend and everything was great. The food was amazing, I had the mushroom burger that was so delicious and I highly recommend it if you ever stop by. Not only was the food great but they had outside seating that was dog friendly so we were able to enjoy our brunch with our fur babies too. The service is a bit unique, they bring out your menus however you have to order your food inside of the restaurant, if it wasn’t for us looking around we wouldn’t have realized that we needed to go inside to order. Other than that, our experience here was 10/10.
