    The really big breakfast
    Monica M.

    This place is amazing. The people are really nice and help. Great for breakfast or lunch.

    If you are craving for an old school American diner foods, Ruby's is a interesting spot that brings back those classic vibes, since something like this is getting harder to find these days with the rise of more trendy fusion spots. On a hot day, it's good way to cool down yourself with an ice cold milkshake. The Oreo cookie shake is sweet, creamy, and hits the spot, while the mint milkshake has a refreshing flavor that stands out. Service is warm and friendly, as most customers are local and seems know the servers very well. Food wise, the prices lean a little high for the quality, but it's still enjoyable. The French fries are crispy and satisfying, and kids enjoy their cheeseburger and Mac and cheese. People also came here during classic car gatherings, which is a fun local event. While milkshake contains too much sugar for both adults and kids, but once in a while, why not treat yourself?

    Yummy

    The onion rings were perfect and hot!! The patty melt was delicious and hot too. I would order this again. The service was great!!

    Excellent service. Turkey burgers so delicious. Fries so crispy and hot not like fast food fries. Chocolate and Stawberry shake very delicious. Please keep this establishment open. Whittier needs this traditional restaurant.

    We came during an off hour and it was great! Our server was really nice and made sure my friend's gluten allergy was taken care of. I got the swiss mushroom burger and it was good. The peanut butter milkshake was also delicious and really big.

Walking inside, it definitely gives off that classic, old-school diner vibe. We were seated right away since it wasn't too busy at the time. The menu is huge, almost overwhelming, so it took us a minute to decide what to order. We kept it simple and went with the traditional pancakes, eggs, and bacon, plus a California burger. The portions were decent, but overall, the food quality was just okay. Nothing terrible, just not particularly memorable, it had a bit of that "cheap" taste to it. That said, the service really stood out. Our server was kind and patient, especially while dealing with my little one being a bit of a handful, which I definitely appreciated. Overall, I'd say it's a solid option if you're looking for a late-night sit-down spot and want to avoid fast food. While I personally wouldn't go out of my way to come back, it wasn't a bad experience. 4 stars, mainly for the friendly service, even though the food didn't quite hit for me.

Food is your average american breakfast like dennys and ihop, but I will say that the portions are a smudge more generous. You get what you order, but taste is nothing super memorable.

Our waitress, though I forgot her name, was exceptional. She greeted us when we sat at the table and gave us some good recommendations on what to try. I had the chilaquiles verdes with carne asada and they were really good! I don't usually have green chilaquiles but these were excellent. The salsa had the right amount of flavor in it paired with some potatoes and beans. I also felt it was a very big portion of food, especially for what we paid. I would say I definitely want to come back to try some of the other items on the menu here. The menu was massive with so many different things to try and it all looked really good. Everyone right down to the owner and the Bussers were super friendly and said goodbye to us as we left. It was a very heartwarming experience and that type of hospitality goes a really long way!

The pork in the chile verde was very tender, well-seasoned, and not dry at all. I could see why the chile verde is so popular here. For sides, I chose half beans and half country potatoes.

I haven't seen this dish anywhere else!

The iced flight was also a great way to sample several of their flavors without having to commit to just one. For food, the Birria Benedict was the standout and easily our favorite dish. I loved the Mexican-inspired spin on a brunch classic, and the rich birria paired so well with the eggs and Benedict preparation. We also really enjoyed getting a mix of savory dishes with the Mole Chilaquiles and Huevos Rancheros before finishing with The Journey Pancakes for something sweet. Overall, Madres Brunch offers a huge variety of creative food and drinks, especially if you enjoy Mexican flavors and fun twists on traditional brunch. Definitely a place where I recommend coming hungry and ordering several things to share! Excellent service, as well.

Unfortunately, my experience with the woman who takes orders and rings customers up has been very inconsistent.

While she occasionally has good days, most of my interactions with her have felt unfriendly, dismissive, and unnecessarily unpleasant. It's disappointing because I truly enjoy this café and want to continue supporting it. The food, location, and atmosphere keep me coming back, but customer service is a huge part of the experience. I hope this feedback is taken constructively because I'd love to see the service match the warmth and hospitality that the owner consistently provides.
