A Toda Madre Mexican Kitchen

"Everything was lit! The food, the drinks, music, it was a vibe. Even though they are under a remodel they had the outside nicely set up. We had some quesa birria, ceviche, steak chilaquiles, taquitos de pollo, chips and 3 different salsas and it was all so flavorful and delicious. Definitely check them out!"

"This place is 5 star all around. As soon as you walk in it’s a vibe. The hostess is really welcoming and gave me the option to either sit inside or outside. As soon as we got our table, the person that took care of us came to explain the menus. They were really patient with us and gave us recommendations of their drinks, appetizers and entrees. We went in with the taquitos, queso fundido, and steak nachos. The queso fundido had a excellent cheese pull and the steak nachos were loaded with flavor. We all liked the black beans on the nachos. Also they make hand made tortilla fyi. The molcajete was fuego. That’s fire for those that don’t speak Spanish. The shrimp was succulent. The carne asada was tender, the nopales, chicken, chorizo and queso were really good and paired good with the salsa it came with. The drinks are really fun and refreshing. You will definitely leave satisfied with good food and good music. The Dj is spinning the tunes while you’re vibing with your company."

"Honestly, the place is very clean, the surrounding art and pieces with the decor is awesome ! Although the service was great, he was attentive and very nice and explained to us he's a little slow inputting the orders since he had been there a week. Totally understandable!! Although upon receiving our food order besides it being on a skillet, it was cold, I ordered pancakes with fruit, pancakes where filled with black char from previous food on a dirty grill? My friend and I brought up our concern to our waiter. He was very nice and offered to remake the order, pancakes were still filled with black char.we asked to speak to manager waiter mentioned he wouldn't arrive until later in the day. We done think we will come back anytime soon at least and def do not recommend."

"Wow....!!! And that, was our first impression. The place has definitely had a face-lift, a new liquor license, an awsome theme and a great attitude... Friday and Saturday nights its the place to be.. the chips and salsa appetizers were delicious and authentic handmade. And the food...!!!! Another WOW..!!! delicious, truly authentic dishes and a welcome change to the presentation. Not to mention the rice rivals moms homemade rice. And the staff..super friendly, and pleasant. Service was fast. Compliments to the chef the staff and management for a truly amazing experience. Highly highly recommend this place. A must when visiting Uptown Whittier."
