My Momma’s

So glad I found this place! I was diagnosed with celiac disease last fall, after 29 years of loving all things gluten. My Momma’s has been a source of comfort when I’m too tired to prepare safe food for myself, or when I want that home-​cooking style that just happens to be gluten free and delicious. If you have celiac, you can feel 100% confident that everything here is safe. It’s a dedicated GF facility, and they also have lots of vegan, vegetarian and specialty diet options.
There’s a lot to choose from on the menu, all meals of the day. I usually stop in for lunch on Saturdays and grab a few things to have for the work week. My favorite is the chicken Caesar wrap. They use a delicous GF wrap, much better than those I’ve tried from Wegmans, and they use Chex to make garlic croutons. It’s served with potato chips and a hot side. This is enough food for two meals for me, or one if I’m really hungry and want to be full for pretty much the rest of the day. Lots of healthy greens and cabbage loaded on there.
I also love the sausage potato soup — this is great to buy as a pint on Saturday and have throughout the week ahead. Same for the pumpkin walnut mini loafs.
Others I’ve tried and liked:
Macaroni and cheese
BBQ quesadilla
rice bowl with chicken
And as an Ohio native living in NJ, I love that they sell BUCKEYES! They make them in two varieties — regular GF and vegan (probably without butter). They make their buckeyes with crunchy peanut butter, which I never had in Ohio, but it’s still a nice reminder of home.
Their daily special is usually pizza or pasta, but I still have to try those.
I like that it’s mostly a takeout place. You could eat there, but I always feel more comfortable picking up and eating at home. It’s an awkward location, above Kolorworks, and the buzzer is super loud when you open the front door. It’s always very quiet inside My Momma’s, and I’ve never seen anyone eating there. I would probably give them a 5 if these things were a little better. I also have a hard time hearing them on the phone when placing my order — it sounds like they’re holding their hand over the mouthpiece or something. But the service is always super nice, friendly, and sometimes they’ve thrown in extra baked goods if it’s close to the end of the day Saturday, their last day of the week.

Family owned and operated, which I love! Met the owner Linda and her son True yesterday. They put their heart and soul into this wonderful hidden gem. When you first drive up, you think you made a mistake, you open the door a huge buzzer goes off, but go upstairs and you will be pleasantly surprised. There are so many wonderful baked goodies and they are healthy and good. They gave me a sample of their ginger cookies which were gluten free and vegan, best darn thing I’ve tasted in a long time. They eagerly assisted me in finding stuff I would like. Im not a chocolate fan, yes crazy but they had lemon thumbprint cookies… WOW! Blueberry muffins, black and white cookies, bagels, pizza and a great assortment of fresh foods in their refrigerator. The Blueberry muffin is incredible and so are the cookies! I plan on returning soon. They also make cupcakes and breads but call the day before for those items. Everything is fresh and healthy! As we all know who struggle with Celiac or a gluten intolerance it is hard to find something healthy when you are out, many things have fillers and junk to make gluten free products taste good. Linda takes pride in her food as we had a great conversation with her. She even told me she makes eggplant rollatini. Im already dreaming of my next trip back.
¹²⁄₂₀₁₅ update Linda catered for Christmas Eve for those of my family who have gluten allergy/​celiac disease. From a good Italian cook I say excellent food! Best gluten free I have ever had!!! Eggplant rollanti, pasta with vodka sauce, chicken scallopini, stuffed breads, the most amazing pizza and tiramisu with homemade gluten free lady fingers. All gluten free kitchen. Everyone can’t stop talking about the food.
