Mama Clemenza’s European Breakfast

We were driving home looking for somewhere to eat that wasn’t a chain restaurant and just happened to drive past this gem. It’s a small restaurant with big flavor!!!!!!! My husband had a chef special of cinnamon roll and chick and wow!!!!!!!

Very disappointing. My wife ordered the eggs Benedict served in a Yorkshire pudding. The photo on the tv screen looked good, but when it arrived it was shocking! The pudding was a solid, uncooked mass of dough/batter (see the pic and the egg had been perched on the top. The staff insisted that this is what a Yorkshire pudding looks like (we are English and have eaten them more time than I care to remember! , so no apology or attempt to rectify the situation. I had the roasted chicken omelette but this was overcooked, dry and the meat very tough. Recent reviews indicate a change of ownership, so old reviews may not be valid. I do not recommend this place. Update: The owner responded and indicated that a Yorkshire pudding is not the same as an English muffin. I am English, and Yorkshire puddings are supposed to be light, crispy, and have a cup shape, traditionally to hold gravy when served with roast beef. Unfortunately, the pudding served at Mama Clemenza, was dense, not risen and had a flat top (due to no rise in the oven . See the numerous photos on the web of a good Yorkshire pudding!

We was here for breakfast, I ordered crepe trio, it wasn’t fresh and capucino so so and rude service.

First, I got a hair in my omelette, second, the chicken was so dry and chewy. Menu says european breakfast, but its worst than any normal breakfast. Omelette felt like deep fried and so oily and overcooked. Menu said “italian panini breakfast” and came out just a regular white toast bread. Such high prices for so low quality food. So disappointing.

Wow!! Amazing food drinks and fantastic service (Petronia! . New favorite spot in Destin. Lovely little restaurant!
