Sourcing note (checked 2026-08-13)

• The restaurant’s own domain mommaannz.com no longer resolves; the last Wayback capture (2025-07-12) is a bare parking page, so the Menufy storefront was retired at some point between December 2023 and July 2025.⁵
• Individual dish names, descriptions, and current prices are not recoverable — Menufy rendered them client-side and no capture preserved them.
• No successor Toast / Square / Clover / ChowNow / Menufy storefront was found.
• Priced listings on Yelp’s menu tab, Zmenu, Sirved, AllMenus, MyMenuWeb, Checkle, Wheree and similar sites are third-party and are excluded by Registry sourcing policy.

What would settle it: an in-store photo of the current menu board, or a menu photo posted to the restaurant’s own Facebook page.
