WITHOUT A DOUBT - THE BEST FOOD I'VE EVER EATEN!!!!! Incredible, incredible, incredible!!!! We tried everything - the fried chicken was as good as my grandmothers, the yams were better! The ribs - best I've ever had. Sausage delicious. Fried okra - the best!! Black eyed peas, collard greens, Mac and cheese - is sweet tea a side dish?? Will I move to Clovis just for Mama Jean? Quite possible. read more

Finding a Soul Food restaurant in Clovis NM was a surprise but finding a really great Soul Food place in Clovis, NM was amazing. I walked in around 2:30 so really quiet at the time and ordered a 12.99 platter which consisted of fried chicken, sweet yams, biscuit, greens and mac and cheese. All the items were home made and delicious but the green were the stand out side dish. The greens were made with pork and had a bite of spice that was perfect. If you want to eat some tasty southern food this is a great place to go! read more

Great hospitality and awesome food! This place was just what we needed on our road trip from Florida. Loved the Mural in memory of Mama Jean the owner's mother. The decor was cute and clean with lots of American flag themed tablecloths. Hubby researched Mama Jeans in before we left Florida and even called the day we got here to make sure they'd have collard greens. Boy did this place deliver! We both had fried chicken, Mac n cheese, greens, yams and cornbread. All delicious! My sentiment to the owner with a mouthful of food - "your food is slammin!" The chicken was seasoned to perfection and cooked to order. Loved the little hint of spicy seasoning in the greens. Not overpowering but just right! To finish off our meal, we had a fat slice of lemon pound cake! Yummy! I highly recommend you visit if you're in town or passing through. Don't forget to bring your appetite! The portion sizes are big. We asked to have ours a little smaller since we were on motorcycles! read more

Mama Jeans Soul Food - Chicken, collard greens, candied yams, and of course Mac n cheese - Soul Food Near Me - Clovis, New Mexico

We have had a flier in the car for months and just today decided to give Mama Jeans a try. It did not disappoint. Nothing fancy on the inside or the presentation, if that is what you are looking for. But if you want some really good homecooked soul food, this is the place. I am not an okra fan, but the okra gumbo was really good. The mac-n-cheese was homemade, and don't know how the green beans were prepared, but -- yum!! ALL the servings were large, hot, and full of flavor. The service was great, too. Can't think of any reason not to return and try the catfish on Fridays or the other plate offerings. We will be back. Probably again and again and again!!! BTW - there was enough left-over for another meal at home ;) read more
