Menu
Willie Mae's Restaurant is known for its friendly staff and excellent customer service. The fried chicken is a standout, with a light and crunchy batter that envelops juicy meat. The red beans and rice are full of flavor, and the gumbo is a seafood lover's dream, with a rich and savory broth filled with sausage, shrimp, chicken, and crab. The cornbread is a perfect accompaniment to the meal. The dishes are cooked to perfection and served hot, offering down-home goodness that feels like homemade. The restaurant also offers delicious sides like mashed potatoes with gravy, yams, greens, cabbage, and butter beans. Whether it's a special occasion or a first-time visit, Willie Mae's Restaurant is sure to impress with its flavorful food and welcoming atmosphere. However, recent updates show it is now an Uber Eats kitchen only, with no dine-in or take-out, so customers should check this before visiting.
