House of Mama D's BBQ & Seafood

I used to go out of my way to eat here whenever I was working anywhere near Central Ave. This WAS the best BBQ joint in Pinellas, probably top 3 in Tampa Bay back in the day when it was Big Tim's ...WAS. But after the old man died ...I still stop in every couple years, hoping... But the atmosphere, service and of course the BBQ have all gone downhill. -Old School TB.

Too much sauce on my pork sandwich to the point you couldn't even pick up the sandwich without it falling apart.

I bought the big rib sandwich, was burnt, and tasted like gasoline and the sauce, looked like tomato sauce, so disappointing, called back 3 times no answer, check your food before leaving this establishment

The smoked ribs have a strong carbon flavor, and the seafood mixed with butter and garlic is pretty good. The disinfectant smell in the store was too strong, making it impossible to sit and eat in the store. I can only comment that it is edible, not unpalatable, and it’s okay to eat very casually.

Great BBQ, excellent sides. Would have given 5 stars but for the ribs. First time I ordered ribs they were perfect. Second time the ribs were tough, dry and hardly edible. Tried one last time and the ribs were inedible. I could not even get a knife to cut the meat. Totally carbonized. Would avoid the ribs.
