    Let me just start with saying this was the most delicious piece of cornbread I've ever experienced…read morein my life. And that's saying something as I would never purposefully choose an edge piece. On top of that I was surprised to find that spaghetti comes as a side! It reminded me of cafeteria spaghetti, but not the bad kind you groan about when you see it on the menu, the kind that has you running to the cafeteria to beat everyone else. The spicy cabbage is just that, SPICY. I was only able to eat a few bites, but even under all that spice the flavor was excellent. The catfish strips were hot and tender. They even threw in an extra or two. Now the server, he was amazing. He greeted us promptly and went above and beyond. I have not had such a positive experience with a server at any restaurant I've been to in a long time. I didn't catch his name, but he was brilliant. The restaurant was clean, food was fresh, and plenty of seating. I'm very excited to visit here again! We've been here twice, once dining in and once as an order ahead take-out. Both times we have been incredibly impressed by the atmosphere, service, and food. They have the best classic southern soul food we've had the pleasure of enjoying in the area. Their menu is huge with a wide variety such as chicken livers, rabbit, catfish, and classic Southern entrees. We were impressed with the long list of side options such as the spicy cabbage and spaghetti. Their cornbread is incredible, you've got to try it.

    You learn to trust the signs. A line before the dinner rush on a Saturday. That golden-hour light…read morespilling onto the sidewalk as the sun sets over Market Street. And the music..low, warm Motown drifting out the door like an invitation you'd be a fool to refuse. That's how you find Mama G's. Parking was a minor hassle. Worth it. Inside, the soul of the place hits you immediately. Family portraits line the walls:real people, real smiles, real history. The woman at the counter greets you not like a customer, but like a nephew who's finally come home for the holiday. That's not trained hospitality. That's heritage. We waited fifteen minutes. Got seated by the bathroom with a view of the road. Not ideal. But you know what? I didn't care. Because the smell coming out of that kitchen was already forgiving every small inconvenience. The menu reads like a dare. Everything "spiced correctly," they boast. No timidity here. So I went big. The Stuffed Turkey Leg: a smoked behemoth of a thing, piled high with greens, mac and cheese, sweet potatoes, all crowned with cornbread crumbs. Thanksgiving on a plate. A chaotic, glorious, soulful mess. The collard greens hit first. Earthy, slow-cooked, righteous. Then the mac and cheese, creamy and clinging to the turkey meat like it belonged there. The yams? Sweet, soft, perfect punctuation. And the spices??; they danced. Bold but not brutal. I could handle it. My four-year-old, however, disagreed. The mac was "too spicy" for her young tongue. Fair criticism. Take the kid to a park next time. This food is for grown-ups! My fiancée went with the Fried Wings. Hand-breaded, Mama G's own seasoning, fresh from the fryer. The kind of fry that crackles when you bite in..extra crispy on the outside, impossibly tender within. She needed dipping sauce to cool the heat. She didn't complain once. In a city full of bland, safe restaurant food, she was grateful for something that actually tasted alive. The staff? Warm. Genuine. Our waitress heard our compliments and brought us a free side of spicy cabbage just to show off what else the kitchen could do. That's confidence. That's family. Mama G's is not a restaurant. It's a relative's house where you happen to pay at the end. It's a taste of the South, a taste of something real, a taste of lovely.

    We stopped here very hungry after a day at the river. We had eaten steaks here once before, and…read morethey had been good. We bragged on the place to the friends we had with us, excited for another hearty meal. What a disappointment! Never before have I been served such a meal. After the first bite, iI was unable to eat a second. My beef club sandwich was packed with what was mostly layers of ice cold fat globs. What lean meat there was cold and stringy, and looked raw enough to bellow. I ate my tough onion petals and part of my pickle and left hungry. When I showed the waitress the meat, she agreed it did not look good at all, and went to tell the manager. He didn't even bother to come out and look at the plate. He had her to tell me "that's how we serve it!" Really?!! We will not be back.

    I and three other family member came here for a lunch. We were seated fairly quickly. It took about…read more15 min before our drink order was taken. When the server eventually returned it was genuinely an hour wait for our food. For reference there were maybe 15 people in the restaurant. I asked for a 8oz sirloin, rare with Mac n cheese and a loaded sweet potato. When we did get our food, I revived a burnt well done steak, Mac n cheese with zero seasoning and a sweet potato that was nothing but a sweet potato that was cut opened. I politely informed my waitress whenever I seen her 15 minutes later. I she took the steak away and minutes later returned with another steak. This steak was...and I cannot emphasize this work enough...ICE COLD..as in every bit of 40 degree. It had to be on the grill less than 3 minutes. My final gift from this establishment was that 3/4 people that ate with me also were vomiting and nausea for the next two days within an hour of leaving the restaurant
