Mami Felipa Cocina Mexicana — Restaurant in Whittier

This place was fantastic. The food tasted homemade and some of their items were unique in a good way. I loved their Machete and Agua Mineral preparada. The drink was super refreshing. I also tasted the green posole which had nixtamal instead of the canned hominy. I liked that instead of two plain tostadas they were garnished with veggies and refried beans. It makes a big difference in enjoying your pozole. I also sampled my husbands quesadilla which was also delicious. I like that they make their masa based items with fresh masa. It makes a difference over the already, refrigerated, stuff. If there is a complaint it's that you are practically sitting in the kitchen. The dining area is small. It might be best to do take-out. I suspect they will have to move to a bigger location. They hit it out of the park with this place! Excellent...

My family and I had one of the best meals here at this little restaurant while visiting California. Being a native to the area and then moving away to Texas, I was excited to experience authentic Mexican food, not offered in Dallas. Mami Felipa did not disappoint. The juciness of the birria inside my wet burrito was paired perfectly with the salsa verde (green salsa). Due to the place being packed only 30 minutes after opening on Sunday morning, my table was not checked on more than twice, but this was not an issue as it was easy to walk to the counter and the friendly staff was ready to give you anything you asked for. Will definitely be visiting again next time I'm...

This place has a little piece of my heart! I'm so proud to have found a restaurant that serves up authentic, homemade Mexican food! The flavors, the love, the care - it's all here. The service is like being at home, the owner and staff treat you like family with a warmth and hospitality that's hard to find now days. And the food, OMG! The carne asada chilaquiles, pozole was so good! Literally everything was delicious. We are searching for a place like this so we will definitely be back, and I'm so grateful to have found it. If you want the real Mexican food experience...
