Mama Clemenza’s European Breakfast

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 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!!!!!!!

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

I ate here 07.26.24. The food exceeded my expectations. I ordered the roasted chicken omelet. My guest ordered a quiche, it was very good. It is obvious the crossaints were made from scratch. I am definitely eating at this gem again!

Make it a point to eat here every time we are in Destin! Great food and great people.
