About Mama Joy’s Kitchen

Mama Joy's Kitchen offers authentic Southern comfort food in a casual, dive-bar-like atmosphere. The fried chicken, mac and cheese, and collard greens remain standout dishes, with the fried chicken plate being highly praised. Customers have noted that everything is super fresh and full of flavor, making it a must-try spot. The portions may not be the largest, but the reasonable prices and delicious food make it a great choice for adults seeking a fun, no-frills dining experience. The service is friendly and professional, with staff members going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant visit, including entertaining children while parents enjoy their meals.

The restaurant is located in a strip mall, and it has an almost bar-like ambiance. However, there is additional seating in adjacent rooms. While the ambiance may not be the most impressive, the food completely overshadows it. Customers have described the food as perfectly seasoned, with the cornbread being particularly delicious. The dining experience is likened to a family gathering, and customers have raved about the amazing, delicious, and top-tier food, including the Alfredo with added chicken and the half-order of oxtails. The service has also been praised, with one customer mentioning the excellent service provided by April.

My experience was good! I ordered the gizzard/liver mixed. I don’t eat gizzard but hers was on point…. No long chewing at all. They were Soft and almost melted in my mouth. The server was nice. My main dish was stewed shrimp & SNOW CRAB… the flavor was everything. However, my only issue was that my dish did not have snow crab meat but imitation crab meat. I hope when visit again, there’s some real crab meat on the plate

The food was good. The lady April that was working the bar had a horrible attitude. She was saying g that she did not get paid and she did not like her job. If she doesn’t like it there then she should get another job. She was cussing and throwing things. If I would’ve matched her energy it would’ve been a problem. Since she doesn’t like working there, do her a favor and let her go. I did not know taking food orders and making drinks was so difficult. Don’t keep people...read full review

The food was absolutely amazing. Everything was seasoned to perfection and serve hot and made to order. I highly recommend Mama Joy’s if you are looking for well seasoned authentic Soul Food!
