We were craving chicken and waffles this particular day and saw Mom's Chicken and Waffles on Yelp. The photos look promising so we gave them a try. Amazing prices for quality & generous meals! We both got the bacon waffle plate -- three pieces each of chicken tenders and bacon waffle with powdered sugar for $17. The chicken tenders were juicy, crispy, and not dry at all. A great meal and the place is ran by friendly folks. They were welcoming to our dog as well. I think we just found a good spot for chicken & waffles in town. Note: they are currently sharing the space with a sports bar so don't be shy to come in! The lady in-charge said their space is currently being renovated. read more

Mom's Chicken and Waffles - Bacon Chicken and Waffle Plate - New American Near Me - San Diego, California

the worker looked me dead in the eye and said 25-35 minutes. I said fine. Place wasn't even busy. Maybe 40-50% capacity if I'm being generous. Attached is the photo One hour later food came out. Ordered 12:30 came out 1:30+. By the time it did my friends and I were pissed off. No accommodations. Nothing to make up for it. Couldn't even enjoy the meal. Food was average. Did not justify the wait. Chicken wasn't even hot so why did it take so long and I'm not sure how these guys have such good reviews. Portions were awful as well for the chicken. I feel completely rinsed. Eggs potatoes and bacon were fine. Can't really mess those up. I understand that things happen but as a restaurant it is your responsibility to ensure that your guests are fed in a proper time frame. We had to pay first as well. So we were forced to wait. I would have left half way through if I could. Get your kitchen staffed or close your doors. read more

Mom's Chicken and Waffles - This is how busy the place was when we were waiting. - New American Near Me - San Diego, California

Absolutely disgusting. My guy and I split the Mom&Pop Special and there wasn't a single thing that was enjoyable to eat. - eggs were flavorless and cold - bacon was old and chewy - potatoes were very salty and were the only item that came out hot - waffles tasted like they came from a box and were clearly not made fresh - the chicken is possibly THE WORST chicken I've ever had in my life. It was lukewarm at best, had zero crisp, and was incredibly wet. I have literally never had chicken that was soo soggy before. This only happens when you fry chicken that is completely frozen. This place is an obvious no from me. I should have known better than to try it considering the type of bar this is located inside anyways. read more

For starters, this is some of the best customer service I've had in a long time. Friendly staff, cracking jokes, going above and beyond since the gate. Chill ambiance, they had music and sports going. The food was truly delicious, flavorful and fresh. Everyone was satisfied with their order. OG chicken sandwhich, the loaded fries, chicken and waffles 10/10! Only bummer was they were out of burger patties and wings but that's just another reason to go back! Someone tell the U31 owner to turn on the damn AC! We are in San Diego for goodness sake . read more

The food here was absolutely delicious, I had to get on here and leave a review. I bought my sister and nephew to Mom's Chicken and Waffles since they were visiting from out of town. My nephew's favorite meal is chicken and waffles so I thought we give this restaurant a try. I'm so glad we did because he almost licked his plate clean! It was that good!! My sister and I both agreed the food tasted like a real home cooked meal. Everything was so fresh. The chicken was flavorful, the waffles were so fluffy, it literally melted in your mouth. I also loved that the restaurant was extremely clean and spacious. The customer service was amazing. I, 10/10 recommend and will be back again read more

I'm really pleased with this spot. I went in the late morning so it was fairly empty which was also nice. Brian helped my friend and I out. We wanted to go halfsies on an OG chicken sandwich and the mom n pop breakfast platter with no potatoes, extra eggs. He suggested we just get the double slider deal instead of the sandwich because it's easier to split in half and eat since they used two tenders on the sandwich instead of one big filet. The food came out and everything looked and tasted perfect. I like that the chicken wasn't overly breaded, overly cooked, or overly crunchy. It was the perfect amount of crunch and tenderness. It was also very well seasoned! Like not in just a traditional way, it had the subtle bit of kick to it not not spicy. I'm a fan. This spot is a gem and very affordable for the quantity of food you're getting! read more

Mom's Chicken and Waffles is a MUST next time you're in North Park. Or, better yet, make the trek over there specifically for Mom's! When I tell you this was the most succulent fried chicken I've ever had in my life, I'm not exaggerating one single bit. Service was amazing, and the vibe is super laid back, as this location is inside of a bar. Go show them some love! Order literally everything and you'll be a happy camper. read more

My husband wanted to take me somewhere for breakfast and he knows I am a huge fan of chicken and waffles. If you have ever partied at U-31 well during the day the have Moms Chicken & Waffles this was our first time visiting for breakfast. We both ordered the Sunrise Chicken and Waffle Sandwich and it was delicious. I'm not a huge potato fan but I ate every single one of them they were good! What we loved about the chicken it was nice and tender and the egg wasn't over powering perfect balance. We came on a Wednesday morning but I hear the weekends are busy. For being the only ones there the food took a little long but we had time to kill. The price was around $20 for the sandwich with potatoes and $3 for a soda. The gentleman that welcomed us was very polite and accommodating. He did mentioned they are opening their own location which would be great to see because IYK U-31 this is the place you come to get ratchet lol the ambiance for a breakfast spot could use a little upgrading. read more

Honestly I couldn't taste much difference between the sauces on the sliders, but the chicken itself was great! We got there right at 5pm. Apparently at 5pm the restaurant becomes a bar, so 21+ yrs only. But since no one was there they let us dine in the patio. read more

Hands down one of the best chicken and waffle spots I've ever been to -- Mom's Chicken & Waffles totally lived up to the hype. From the moment we arrived, customer service was amazing. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, welcoming, and super attentive -- constantly checking in and making sure we were good. The vibe was top-tier: great music (whoever curated that DJ playlist deserves a shoutout), a chill outdoor setup with plenty of seating, and just an overall cool, relaxed atmosphere. We were able to have real family time without feeling rushed or crowded. Now let's talk food: 10/10. The chicken and waffles were probably the best I've ever had. I tried both the regular and bacon-infused waffles. While the bacon ones are definitely popular, my personal pick is the regular -- classic, fluffy, and perfectly paired with that crispy chicken. But honestly.. try both and decide for yourself. The only downside was that we arrived too late for the full morning menu, so I missed out on the potatoes -- which I was really looking forward to. So just a tip: get there early if you want the full experience. and the fries?? UNREAL. I still dream about them Perfectly seasoned, crispy, and just addictive. If you go, you have to try them -- non-negotiable. A couple things to know: - Parking is street only, so give yourself time to find a spot. - The outdoor seating is spacious and super laid-back. - Everything -- from the food to the service to the vibe -- made this spot a hit for us. I'll definitely be back. No complaints at all -- just make sure to beat the cutoff for the breakfast menu! read more

I waited on 4 chicken strips & 2 waffles for over 45mins. And never received them. Brian Foxworth so graciously informed me that "it Couldn't have been that long" and walked off. I waited another 10mins & followed up, he then said it would be another 5mins. I politely requested a refund & was told "I'm not gon argue with you". Followed up by him telling me "over $40 dollars?" "You don't see those people out in the back?" A simple heads up that the wait will be 45mins or longer at purchase would have eliminated the entire situation. Be sure to spend more than $40, as Mr. Foxworth deems It minuscule. Picture below of someone else's food. Video will be shared on all social media platforms. read more

I was really looking forward to trying this place because I had heard good things, but unfortunately my experience was disappointing. The chicken wasn't as crispy as I expected, and it seemed like it had been sitting for a while before it was served. The waffle was dry and didn't have much flavor, so the meal just didn't come together. The service also felt slow, even though the restaurant wasn't very busy. We had to wait quite a while before anyone checked on us and felt alienated and alone. For the price, I expected better quality and a better overall experience. I hope they can improve because the menu has a lot of potential, but based on this visit I don't see myself coming back. read more

My first time visiting. The food was sooooo good!! The fried chicken was perfectly fried, potatoes crispy and hot, waffles were so fluffy and delicious. I got a side of gravy, creamy and savory. Collette (hope I spelled that right) was taking care of me! She is so sweet, made me feel right at home. I love that the place is in a bar during the day, makes it feel like a hidden gem. Thank you so much for the experience. If I could give more stars I would! read more

Mom's Chicken and Waffle is tucked in the back of U-31 and you may just expect bad greasy bar food but this place took us by surprise! We ordered the Buffalo Chicken sandwich and side of fries. A delicately soft brioche bun was supporting this massive piece of seasoned and perfectly friend Chicken that was so juicy I couldn't put the sandwich down after I started. Drizzled with tangy Buffalo sauce and complemented with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and pickle.. each bite gave me the happy wiggles. Make sure to get the fries and a side of homemade ranch, it was a perfect sidekick to an amazing sandwich! read more

Went to mom's chicken and waffles today and it was super busy however it was worth the wait.

My husband and I arrived at 7:30pm on a Friday night, note that Mom's serve food until 9pm. As other reviews have noted and I am in agreement - this is not a restaurant this is absolutely a bar, and in my opinion, not appropriate for children during the the evening hours of service. Parking was difficult, though the bar was not very busy at our arrival time. Orders are taken from a walk-up window within the bar, and then your food is delivered to your table. Tonight was comedy night, which we watched for a bit - and I have to say we found it entertaining. We placed our order for the chicken and waffles - (because that is what we specifically came for), and seated ourselves outside on the patio. The fried chicken was very good, nice crispy coating and very moist inside - we would rate the chicken a 5! However, the waffles (dusted in powdered sugar) and the syrup are nothing to write home about. We wanted to try the bacon waffles, but they were out. The syrup is literally commercially produced and served in a sealed plastic cup (like something you would find on an airline... or in a bar) - not special or homemade. We rated the waffles a 3 and the syrup a 1. The comedy show we rated as a 4.5 ;-). If we return, it will be all about the fried chicken, possibly try a different chicken menu option... their fries looked good too, but cannot review at this time. read more

I was first introduced to Moms Chicken and Waffles when she was in Pacific Beach. I am glad to see that she has continued the ritual here in North Park with their terrific fried chicken tenders. In lieu of waffles and chicken tenders this time around, I went for the OG chicken sandwich for $15.99. The sandwich came with a juicy and seriously well fried pair of plump chicken tenders. Not only was it crispy and juicy, but it was well seasoned. Well done! The sandwich came on a lightly toasted soft brioche bun with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, with mayo and chipotle sauce. The combination of ingredients and flavors was delicious. They are located inside the U31Bar of North Park, San Diego. There is plenty of seating inside and on the outside patio. The service provided by Mom's Chicken and Waffles is very friendly. Nice people. read more

The chicken and waffles were so good. Chicken tender and PERFECTLY seasoned. Waffle--perfect texture and taste. Can't wait to come back.

Fried chicken is one of my most favorite foods in the world. This weekend I was craving chicken and waffles. Not a usual thing and the hubs has never had the combination! Shocked, I had not realized that he's never had chicken and waffles, we had to go get some! Luckily we came across Mom's and the reviews were good! Was not sure exactly where Mom's was and found it inside U-31 bar. There were not too many people in there day drinking. Where you order Mom's chicken is in the back by the North Park wall. The gentleman was very nice telling us the menus were slightly different and explaining what he did have available. They have lots of yummy options, but we came for the chicken and waffles. Few options for chicken and waffles, I of course decided on the Bacon Waffle plate. Bacon infused Belgium waffles?!? Yes, please! They have a nice area in the back outdoors, but we opted to sit inside at the high tops. The plate takes a bit to make which I didn't mind. Everything came out hot and fresh and oh so yummy! Generous portion, I loaded up the waffles with butter (slightly frozen) and a ton of syrup and took a bite with the chicken. The hubs was not sure at first, but before I knew it, he was gobbling everything up faster than I was! Safe to say we absolutely loved it! I could eat this every weekend! 2024:13 read more

I met up with some friends here back in June when they first opened inside of U-31. I ordered the chicken and bacon waffle plate and the loaded chicken fries! The chicken and waffle came with 2 buttermilk chicken tenders, a bacon infused Belgian waffle, and butter, and syrup. The waffle could be crispier, but the chicken was huge and tender. My favorite was was the chicken fries though! There were little pieces of fried chicken on top with my sauce choice- honey sriracha! It had a sweet, yet spicy flavor and was very addicting. My friends liked it too. They got the sliders, poppers, chicken sandwiches, and some drinks. Everything is made to order, so expect a wait. I enjoyed my time here and liked the patio area a lot! read more

Upon entering, the ambiance felt somewhat sparse and better suited for a late-night dining environment than a breakfast setting. The service model is counter-service rather than table service; however, the staff was both professional and efficient, handling additional requests promptly. Unfortunately, the culinary experience did not align with the price point. The dishes lacked a cohesive flavor profile, and the chicken, in particular, was underwhelming. Given the cost, the overall value was disappointing. Would not recommend. read more
