About Mama Lor Restaurant & Bakery
If you're after a Filipino bakery in Rooty Hill, New South Wales, Mama Lor Restaurant & Bakery is a family-owned spot that doubles as a sit-down restaurant. Its tagline is "There's no place like home," and the whole idea is comfort food and baked goods that taste like the Philippines, made in-house. Hopia is among the breads and pastries baked on site.
The restaurant side is just as much of the draw. People talk about the lechon belly with its crackling skin, the crispy pata, pork barbeque and dinuguan, and the classics like sinigang, kare kare, bulalo and bistek. We've heard the arroz caldo is a real comfort dish with a good gingery kick, and that the halo-halo is a fitting way to finish a meal. One Filipino diner said it reminds them of home, and the menu is friendly enough for anyone just discovering the cuisine.
Staff come up often as a highlight. One local singled out Anj for being attentive and making the table feel welcome, and the general word is warm, hospitable service in a relaxed room with Filipino music playing. Prices are often described as fair for the portions, and the calamansi jug gets a nod for value.
Some find certain dishes on the salty side, and one quieter weekday lunch moved slowly. One person had a hiccup with a dish that was replaced.
Practical details: you can dine in, take away or have it delivered, and they cater for events. They serve coffee and dessert too, and breakfast through to dinner. It suits families, and the car park, entrance and seating are wheelchair accessible. They're open daily, but check the hours before you head in.
