I've visited Mama Soup for lunch multiple times, and I still find myself craving their dishes. Out of all the restaurants in Mineola that I've tried, this one is my favorite. I always go for the tomato soup and the hot chicken sandwich, and I've never felt the urge to try anything else because these two dishes are so satisfying. I've heard that some items may lack flavor, but I can't comment on that since I always stick to my favorites.
Tomato Soup: While it's not the best I've ever had (that title goes to Cafe Gossip), Mama Soup's version features delightful little cubes of grilled cheese that elevate the experience. The soup itself is somewhat mild but retains the zesty tang of tomatoes...
I have been ordering from Mama Soup for years! My family has owned a deli for 15 years, and I’ve never seen a charge of $7.49 for a sandwich with just one egg white, bacon, and cheese on a roll. My coworker ordered two scrambled eggs with avocado and cheese on a bagel and paid the same price. Essentially, I was told I was paying for two eggs, bacon, and cheese plus $1.49 extra for egg whites, yet I received only one egg white. Anyone familiar with eggs knows one egg white is very small. Maybe it’s just me, but this pricing feels excessive. I usually order from Mama Soup 2-3 times a week, but I won’t be ordering from their menu anymore. I will have to decline when my office places orders ther...
If you're in search of a great soup, this restaurant is the place to go. I sampled the chicken pot pie soup along with a grilled cheese sandwich. Unfortunately, the grilled cheese was quite thin, not melted sufficiently, and honestly, I wouldn't recommend it. It definitely needs an upgrade; it felt like something a child could have made. On the other hand, the chicken pot pie soup was hearty, packed with chicken and vegetables, and perfectly seasoned. It also came with a delicious biscuit. I'm looking forward to returning to try other soups and perhaps a standout sandwich.
The soups are decent; they have a nice appearance but lack flavor. The service leaves much to be desired, though—I waited 20 minutes after ordering a soup and half a sandwich, only to receive the wrong sandwich. I had ordered egg salad on whole wheat, but instead, I got it on focaccia, complete with lettuce and tomato. It's hard to believe they could mess up something so simple! Even after three years, the kitchen service is still slow. However, I must mention that the quality of food has improved. With more regular staff members, things seem to be getting better overall.

The food at this restaurant is decent, but the prices are excessively high. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak on a roll and a Snapple iced tea for $15, when I could have bought a pre-made sandwich at Stop & Shop for only $6. Additionally, their quart of clam chowder costs $15, but I can get a can of Progresso clam chowder for just $2.39, and it tastes just as good. Overall, I would give the food a rating of 3 out of 5.
My family and I have been frequenting this restaurant for years, and we simply can't get enough of it. You can really tell that all the food is freshly prepared; it's some of the best around. The entire staff treats you like family. Thank you all so much!
The staff at the cashier are very friendly, but the food is only average. Prices are quite high, so I’ve stopped having lunch there, especially since there are at least two other nearby places within half a mile that serve bigger portions for much less.
