Average experience, average food, very overpriced. Everything cost $15. I order a fajita, instead of being a stir fried, it was more of a steamed Stew, everything swimming in oil and way too salty. Very tiny portion of rice and beans which was the items that tasted the best. The waitress pushed too hard for me to order drinks. The vibes was okay. It seemed to be the only Mexican joint in town so it is what it is. I won't be back.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We LOVED it!! We ate here about a month ago. The food was absolutely amazing. It came out FAST. The food wasn’t warm.. it was HOT.. which is a huge plus for us.. we rarely eat out because food is usually cold or warm.. but nope here it was perfect!! and the little one is picky but as you see the chicken tenders were a win for him!! All of the employees were super nice. I love it 100% recommend this place!!

everything, literally everything, about our experience at mama bertha’s was insanely delicious. we had heard about how good it was and were skeptical because we haven’t really loved any mexican restaurants recently. every single bite i took was flavored expertly, everything was fresh, hot, so good!! two things that made us extra happy with was the attention to the seasoning on food. i feel like i haven’t had perfectly seasoned mexican food in so long. i usually have to salt a ton and salting and seasoning food after it’s served just isn’t that great. also the guacamole!! it was FRESHLY made. every single restaurant that serves guacamole these days has a weird guacamole.. it’s not fresh, it’s hard to explain, it’s just not good to me. this guacamole was 10/10!! salsa was also refreshing and seasoned well. my family enjoyed the quesabirria, nachos supreme, pollo loco, molcajete (with steak and chicken) and churros… when trying new restaurants we love to get a bit of everything and share… everything was *so good* and i truly recommend all of those dishes. we will be back again and again! i never review on google, but this place deserves a ton of praise!
