Tonight was my first time at Mama Bird Southern Kitchen. In short, it was absolutely amazing. Tiffany, my server, was extremely friendly and attentive. Everything she suggested was spot on. I loved the Mama's chicken sandwich. And the watermelon soft serve was the perfect way to finish off the meal. read more

Excellent food, yummy watermelon dessert. Great service! Country style ambiance. Nothing we didn't like, the food was wonderful. read more

Loved: ginger beer flight- all the flavors were phenomenal! Cornbread (which was free) was also a standout- perfectly warm, sweet & soft. Watermelon soft serve (DF!) was refreshing and beautifully presented. Our server was attentive and friendly. It's a huge space, so tables were spaced out nicely. The menu has a lot of appealing and varied options. Could improve: several things were on the bland side (chicken fried steak and gravy, coleslaw, mac & cheese, catfish), I liked the pickled veggies on the po'boy but they overpowered the fish and would be better on the side, watermelon was mushy and flavorless (if it's like that due to being off-season, I'd prefer just getting the soft-serve alone!), chairs were super hard. When we walked in for dinner, the staff stared at us blankly like they were confused why we were there, which was an awkward start to the experience. I'll mostly remember the ginger beer and will likely seek that out in the future. read more

We were excited to try this place, but left disappointed. The girls at the front were super nice and seated us quickly. We loved how the booths were nice and big. The esthetic of the restaurant was amazing and so cute! Definitely gives you that southern feel. We ordered the hush puppies and the fried pickles for appetizers, both were delicious! Although we were disappointed in the quantity size of the pickles for the price that they cost. I got the grilled sandwich - green acres family style and was disappointed. I am a big dill lover and didn't really taste any dill. The sandwich was also dry and lacked sauce. I also had to request pickles because the sandwich didn't come with any, which I thought was weird since it was dill style. With it I got the creamed corn for my side and that was amazing! My husband got the brisket and said it was good, but nothing special. My sister got the fish and liked it! My mom got the fried sandwich and also said it lacked sauce and some flavor. Although the staff was nice, the service was super slow and our waiter took forever to come check on us and refill drinks. Made it difficult to eat there with little kids because of the wait. read more

I came here with a friend for brunch and it was okay. I felt like our server didn't really want to be there or just didn't like us but otherwise service was fine. I thought the food was good and it came out super fresh and still steaming hot. My friend made her own omelette which including cheese and let me tell you it was super cheesy. The entire omelette was covered in cheese and I could tell she wasn't a big fan of that and hadn't finished her omelette. We also ordered the brown sugar coffee with bourbon and we did not like it. Our expectations were totally off from what we got. It just tasted like watered down bourbon with a slight hint of coffee. It was very strong. Otherwise, the place is cute and includes a cute little shop up front. read more

I stopped by Mama Bird Southern Kitchen for a business lunch yesterday with three colleagues, and we were seated immediately without a reservation. There's plenty of parking, making it an easy spot for a midday meeting. I ordered the 5-piece chicken tenders, and they were absolutely massive--I could only finish two! They were perfectly seasoned, incredibly juicy, and paired perfectly with the dill ranch. The fried pickles were another standout, especially the long, thin pickle slices that delivered a crispy, flavorful bite every time. The building has a very southern vibe. The prices were very reasonable, but unfortunately the service kept this from being a higher-rated visit. Our waiter rarely checked on us, my drink stayed empty most of the meal, and we even had to flag him down just to get the check. The food alone is worth coming back for, but I hope the service improves because it doesn't match the quality coming out of the kitchen. read more

My review for this restaurant is kind of mixed. It seems they are very popular but understaffed. The wait for a table was quite long but when we finally got seated there were a lot of empty tables. The service was also very slow. Our server was nice but every step of service just seemed to take a long time. The food itself was pretty good. The steak was cooked perfectly. Eggs were overdone. The chicken was well seasoned. The mimosa was 90% juice. It hardly even had bubbles from the champagne. Would not order that again. You're better off just ordering the glass of champagne/sparkling wine. Decor is cute and southern. Plenty of parking. read more

This place has potential, however the service is slow and inconsistent. Also the kitchen seems to struggle with cooking things to order, such as over easy eggs. Waited almost 30 minutes as they were "making a fresh pot of coffee". Refills and other requests all seemed to take 2-3 times the amount of time to complete after request. This place could be great, if the kitchen got more consistent and the servers were better trained / better equipped to meet service requests. read more

Mama Bird Southern Kitchen - Breakfast tacos - Southern Near Me - West Jordan, Utah

Was recommended this new restaurant from a coworker and he was spot on. Im always down for new local restaurants and it hit the mark. Available from breakfast/brunch to dinner, this southern style restaurant really digs into the theme of a country family diner type restaurant. As someone who grew up in the country, the theme really hit at home. As for the food, first, the portions are very generous so be prepared for leftovers. They seem push southern style chicken as their "specialty" and they hit it right. The chicken was thick and crispy but also still juicy. Im not huge on grits but the grits that came with the chicken fried steak were spot on and would for sure get again. The biscuits and gravy they had as a small side option so got that to try. The biscuit seemed homemade just with how fluffy it was and I was big on how not dry it was. The gravy was flavorful with the pepper and sausage within it. I would say my favorite part of the brunch was for sure the crispy hushpuppies. They bring it out with a sauce but i would say it wasnt necessary for how good it was. When looking into this place, it seems to have only been open for a month. You could see that they were still kinda working out some stuff but nothing that affected my experience. The service was attentive and very nice. It is a big building and has a ton of space for diners, however, I would still recommend reservations being made for parties of 4 or more. Im definitely gonna be back to try some other menu items but could be my new go to brunch spot. read more

The atmosphere is very cozy, cute, and full of charm. Southern comfort feel. The food is good with a wide variety of options like burgers, sandwiches, grits, po boys, steak, BBQ, chicken wings, salad, etc. Get the coleslaw and collard greens sides to balance things out. Non-Alcoholic--The jalapeño ginger beer was refreshing. They offer original, peach, and strawberry ginger beer flavors too. Alcoholic--the two drinks that stood out were the Banana bread old fashioned and Mama Bloody Mary with a deviled egg. So creative. Beers are available as well. The only thing that could make this place better is speeding up the service. Everyone was incredibly nice, but everything moved very slowly from check-in to getting our food. I know it's a popular place, but it definitely felt like a long wait. Overall, it's a perfect spot for southern food which I don't think there's many options around. What I really love is their creativity in the food and drinks. It elevates it that much more. read more

4th time here and still haven't tried 75% of the menu. Food is always an experience. Portions are so big, order a box when you order your food. Service is friendly, fast and welcoming. The place feels like your walking into grandma's, warm and inviting. If you haven't gone, you need to get there. Two different menus, breakfast/brunch and dinner. read more

The atmosphere is super cute. I love how they have decorated the inside. There is only room for 6 people to sit and wait don't you go when it's super busy plan on standing. The food was ok. I ordered the brisket grilled cheese and expected more grilled cheese style, it was good but not something I wud order again. The brisket had great taste. Husband ordered a brisket burger, he enjoyed it. Fries were warm but not fresh. I did really enjoy the watermelon lemonade mimosa and the fried pickles. We also tried the Mac and cheese, it tasted like it was made with white cheddar and did not measure up to my southern expectation. read more

Really good food and friendly service , I didn't give five stars because the food did take a while to come out , the restaurant is really cute and fits the southern vibe it's going for , overall I can see myself coming back. read more

They are within their soft opening time frame. So hours and service is going to be different compared to when they fully open. With that said. The staff was warm and friendly. We were taken care of by Dave H. Fantastic recommendations. The food was tasty. We ordered Chicken and Waffles, Red Velvet pancakes, and Ribs and Brisket plate. We tried each plate and enjoyed it. The place is well decorated, very open and bright. The kitchen is probably still working out their processes and flow. It was a bit slower than anticipated. We came for lunch and if you have a limited lunchtime (hour lunch to get back to work), you're going to be anxious for your food to come out. Everything came piping hot because our server was fast to table everything. It wasn't packed as there were open tables. From seated to paying our bill, it took about a little over an hour. We had at least two refills of our drinks before the food came out. We will come back for leisurely dinner as there is so much to try on the menu. The portions are generous. We had to go boxes. read more

I was excited to see this new sit-down non-chain restaurant open in Jordan Landing. They have a location in Las Vegas and this is their 2nd restaurant. The restaurant got very busy after 5:30 on Friday evening and they accept reservations. All the food and drinks were really good: they make the ginger beer fresh in house and have 4 flavors to try, but the ginger intensity flavor varied between flavors. Servers and staff were friendly and did well even though they're still learning. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are clearly labeled which we really appreciate. The brisket was very tender and the cornmeal fried shrimp was really unique. There's a small store so you can come in and get jar cakes and ginger beer to go. Unfortunately getting a bottle to go took a very long time, it seems it gets put in the same queue as drinks ordered in. I'm excited to come back & try their breakfast! read more

This has to be my new favorite brunch spot, next to Hash Kitchen. Our friend group went for a double birthday celebration and it was soooo worth it! The food and coffee drinks were absolutely delicious! All of us loved what we ordered. The dessert was also excellent. Service was great despite how busy it was. I highly recommend a reservation if you're wanting to go on a weekend with more than a group of 3-4. Honestly been counting down the days until we go back. read more

We were so excited to try this new restaurant! The decor is super cute and has a souther charm feel to it! The service was good, friendly staff all around. The food portions were really good, lots of food and everything looked amazing! Our first issue was that we waited for about 57 minutes for our food, our drinks came out 30 minutes after we order. Waiting for food isn't a huge deal, especially if everything comes out fresh and hot! Unfortunately that wasn't the case with our food... EVERYTHING came out cold! The breading from the chicken on the tenders just fell apart since it was so cold, it didn't stick to the chicken. Overall we tried to eat what we could but unfortunately left most of it on the table. The flavors were pretty good but hard to eat when it's not even lukewarm.. read more

Seriously cute restaurant. Not much space for big parties, but cozy tables for 2 to 4 people. Good service, friendly, and checking in. Until you need the bill. But they were busy and we were willing to wait. Getting to the food. Order the ginger beer. So fun to try the flights. The ginger beer has a bite. The fried chicken was very good. Crispy and perfectly seasoned. While the shrimp and grits were good, not much shrimp and hard to tell as the whole thing was drowned in sauce. The pimento cheese and bacon jam were delicious. I know saltines are traditional, but I would have preferred bread. Speaking of bread, I thought complimentary bread was to be brought to the table? There were so many other menu items I would have liked to try. Fried catfish, I'm coming for you next time. read more

We were really excited to try a southern kitchen restaurant and boy were we greatly disappointed. Our waitress was average and polite enough, however she didn't check back in on drinks until close to the end of the meal. Also, apparently they provide you complimentary bread, but this didn't happen until about 20 min after we had ordered. We ordered the brisket burger, green acres grilled chicken sandwich and fried chicken plate (thighs). The double b brisket burger needed more bbq sauce and was average. The grilled chicken also needed more sauce and the chicken was overly salty, and the fried chicken was horrible. First the breading on the chicken was way too thick, second it not only smelled, but tasted like fish. It seems as though the chicken is fried in the same oil as the fish! Our food was also room temperature at best. I would think that if it takes 30 min to receive your food that the temperature of the food will be hot. Would I recommend Mama Bird's , I can't really say I would. My husband does want to possibly give them another try for breakfast, but we shall see. On a side note, the cornbread was great and my son would order a platter full. read more

I am from Texas so I was excited to find a new southern food option! We started off very strong with the fried green beans. I know some people are skeptical. We fry everything in Texas so I was excited and the surpassed expectations!! 10/10! They have some spice and then ranch to dip them in and it reminded me of home. Then things got a little Rocky. They have a watermelon lemonade as their only lemonade option and I love watermelon so I tried it. It just didn't mix very well. 6.4/10 Then the food.. it took 45 minutes.. when we noticed a whole family by us who came in and ordered after us got their food first we said something. They were apologetic and gave us a free dessert afterwards so they did take care of us a little. I ordered their ribeye medium rare and I got a very disappointing well done steak.. 4/10 I also tried the Mac n cheese and fried chicken. The chicken was better but not great. And the Mac n cheese was pretty good. The desert was a red velvet cookies n cream cake in a jar.. took a bite and we put the lid on it.. it was okay 5/10 read more

We stopped in for late breakfast on a mission bday and the place was not super busy. The atmosphere is super cute with a fresh country feel. There was a man in the bar taking a conference call in full blast that was super annoying and I am fairly certain he was an employee so that was a bummer. The food: The fried chicken sandwich was delicious. The Mamas fry breakfast was tasty as well. The kids brisket grilled cheese was not great. The brisket was dry and hard to chew and the cheese was not fully melted. We might try again read more

We went to a ribbon cutting event to celebrate the completion of Mama Bird. It was a lot of fun and the food was amazing! They had so many different food and drink options to try. The meat they served was so soft and juicy! I wanted more! The chicken sandwich was cooked perfectly and I absolutely loved dipping it in their spicy sauce. I have a pretty high heat tolerance and the sauce was actually hot. I wish they sold it by the bottle! I also had some red velvet pancakes that were to die for, and don't even get me started on the fresh bread and jam. Every drink I had was delicious, but my favorites were the watermelon, the bloody mary, and the cucumber/kale drink (my kid kept going back for the cucumber drink). The staff was so kind and bent over backwards to make this a pleasant experience for all of us. My only tiny complaint is the leg space in the booths. My husband struggled getting in and out of the booths because the seat was too close to the legs of the table. Not a big deal though because we can sit somewhere else next time. I can't wait until they officially open because I want more food!! read more

Man, this place needs some new management. We had a birthday reservation and we showed up at the expected time of reservation. We were told that our table would be ready in about 10 minutes. No big deal, we'll wait. Once we're seated, we order our food and drinks. It took about 30 minutes for our food to come out and some specifications that we asked for were disregarded (asking for fruit on the side and not on top of pancakes). One of our entrees claimed to come with candied jalapeños but when it arrived they were not there. We got our waiter and asked for a side of them and she came back out with regular Jalapeños...why advertise candied jalapeños if you aren't going to offer them...Anyway, the food that did show up correctly (after 30 minutes) just wasn't anything spectacular. $14 for 2 average brisket tacos is crazy. Almost $20 for the chicken tender waffle sandwich for some dry chicken and a cold waffle is also crazy. Once we were done with our food, our waitress was MIA so it took another 10 mins after we were done to as for our bill. The bill came 10 more mins later. Also, we told our waitress we were celebrating a birthday early on and after we paid we had to remind her again and she asked us if we wanted soft serve on a watermelon slice. I said yes but then she disappeared again. After another 10 mis we just decided to leave because we'd been there for almost 2 hours at that point...we won't be coming back until we hear something has changed (ambiance is fine). read more

Cute decorated restaurant- bright and sunny - located in a mall so lots of parking! We had to wait a bit to get seated but it wasn't too bad. Heather B was our sever today. The restaurant was pretty busy so she had quite a few tables to serve all at once and was pretty busy. But she took our order in a timely manner. The menu is huge and lots of options so you do need to read the menu carefully select your many options. It's perfect if you like a lot of choices customizing your meal to your liking. We were a party of 6 and everyone had something different. Miner's silver dollar pancakes - build your own omelette- mama 's fried chicken n biscuits w/ country gravy - fried chicken sandwich- and - fried catfish plate! It was all very good but we had to wait a while to get our food - more than 25 minute and I'm thinking the kitchen needs a re- worked. Our catfish order came out blacken instead of fried therefore sent back. It took over 15 minutes to get the correct order! No one came to the table to apologize for the error or offer any compensation for the error or the long wait . My dish fried chicken n biscuits was good just served lukewarm as if it had been sitting a bit! The portion size is generous prices on the higher side - food good flavor better if served hot. Everyone enjoyed their meal but nothing really served hot. I'd like to try the restaurant again maybe today was busier than expected or just an off day. Lots of potential of being an awesome with good food. Maybe more service personal both in the front and back of the house. read more

Hello my good people. Everyone knows I try to give positive reviews but there are some times when a restaurant has to get an ahem.... not bad but not all good review. To keep it simple and honest. The greens were ok. The chicken was not whole wings but they were pre cooked, I think I always guessed that a restaurant, the restaurant wings would be dropped and come out hot and ready.. Also the service, well advice... if you are going to have someone greeting people please ask them to wear a belt to keep their pants up. I don't want to see a guys underwear when I'm there to purchase food.... I will go 2 stars because well it was not what I expected. read more

I went there with my husband a few weeks ago and I have to say I was a disappointment I wouldn't go back. Super cute environment and decoration. But the food had zero flavor or super dry; the only thing worth talking about was good coffee and okay pancakes. Service was okay, a bit slow in my opinion and let's not forget I ordered a sweet potato hash and I have no clue it also came with regular potatoes; well I don't want a potato platter with dry brisket so not for me read more

Value for money: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Food Quality: 3 Customer Service: 5 Look and Feel (Ambiance): 5 Thank you, Come Again?: 4 Mama Bird Southern Kitchen is a charming new addition to the West Jordan, Utah area, and I'm so glad to see a fresh brunch spot pop up. They also have a location in Las Vegas, but it's exciting to have one close to home. What really stands out about their menu is the variety. From deviled eggs to cornmeal waffles to a fried bologna sandwich, the offerings go far beyond the usual pancakes‑and‑bacon lineup. It makes brunch feel fun and a little adventurous. I'm already looking forward to trying more dishes on my next visit. The interior is adorable with a cute country field vibe, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. The staff was friendly, attentive, and kind. Shout out to Amber our server! Since they're still in soft‑opening hours, it's worth checking their schedule before heading over so you don't get caught by surprise. Cornmeal Waffle Platter with Country Apple Sausage and Sunny Side Eggs The cornmeal waffle was the star of the meal. It had smaller divots than a standard waffle and a great texture, and the cinnamon syrup paired beautifully with it. The country apple sausage, however, didn't have much flavor and could use a bit more seasoning. The sunny side egg was cooked well. Cinnamon Pot of Bread I expected something similar to a mini cinnamon roll, but the dish came out a little dry. The cinnamon flavor was faint. A gooier, pecan‑sticky‑bun style version might be more appealing. Piggy Omelet The omelet was sizable and cooked nicely, but the flavor mostly came from the sausage inside. The white cheddar grits were a little on the bland side. Mama's Mocha The mocha arrived hot and was pretty tasty. The flavor was mild, but the whipped cream and chocolate drizzle on top added a nice touch. Overall, Mama Bird Southern Kitchen has a fun and promising menu, a cute atmosphere, and warm service. With a few tweaks to certain dishes, this spot could easily become a standout brunch destination in the area. I'm excited to return and explore more of what they offer. read more

I had an awesome time. The vibe of the restaurant was great. It felt very chill and homey. The person who helped us was nice and the food was served right away. I got the sweet cream pancakes and some fried chicken. The Pancakes was huge and not too sweet. If you are not a big eater, I suggest just stick with the small stack cause it is still huge. The fried chicken was awesome. I prefer it without any sauce cause it was already savory. Definitely one on my list! read more

Such a cute restaurant! It has a grandmas kitchen feel to it. We got there an hour before then closed so it wasn't too busy. The server had very helpful recommendations and was very attentive. I ordered the chicken sandwich which was crispy, juicy, and flavorful. The fries were not bad pretty average, I ate them with their Cajun hush puppy sauce bc they didn't come w a sauce. Their collard greens were good and their Mac n cheese was a little different.. I think it had sugar on top?? It had a slight hint of sweetness to it. It wasn't bad just different. I want to go back and try some of their barbecue. I'd say this place is worth a try! read more

Beware they can't seem to get or maybe keep staff. Three servers for a big location. On a Sunday night makes for a long wait.

Loved their menu as well as service and will definitely be back. Their food is all freshly made and locally sourced when it's available. They give you a little bread basket while you're waiting for your food. It had cornbread and a little everything spice cheese biscuit that was delightful. We had the fried green bean appetizer, 5 pc chicken tenders with greens and beets salad, and beef brisket plate with Mac and cheese. The servings were huge, we have leftovers for dinner tomorrow.

WORTH THE WAIT! Mama Bird officially opened on Dec 10, and my partner, my dad, and I finally went in on Friday after eagerly waiting for opening day. Since they're newly opened, patience is definitely needed--there was a 30-45 minute wait, and it was disappointing to see people walk out instead of giving the staff grace and understanding this place literally just opened. The manager, Jeremy, was extremely kind, working as quickly as possible, and even offered vouchers to guests who left due to the wait. (Please do not quote me on the vouches and expect to get one) Our server, Victoria, was phenomenal, and every staff member was friendly and informative. The ambiance felt warm and family-oriented, and while the music started off slow, it eventually picked up and added to the great atmosphere. We ordered the hush puppies, which were perfectly fried--crispy on the outside and soft inside (8/10). We were also the first to order the watermelon with honey appetizer, and it was incredibly refreshing and delicious!!! Please read the description in photos I provided explaining the rest of the AMAZING AND DELICIOUS FOOD Will be definitely coming back to try breakfast!!! Thank you to all of the staff and cooks for their hard work and for making our first night truly amazing read more
