    Fried Chicken Wing Breakfast Platter
    Na H.

    Came here for breakfast. Sugar Mama's is an order online, pickup restaurant. There is no dine in option. I placed my order online, paid, and they gave me a pickup time. There is only street parking and it can get full quick, but there are side streets you can park on that are steps away. Upon entering, the ambiance was quiet with the smell of French toast, fried chicken and fried fish in the air, which was a good thing. I gave the pleasant young lady my order number and she gathered my order. We ordered the chicken wing breakfast platter with cheese egg and home fries; the French toast breakfast platter with egg (no cheese) and home fries, an order of grits, and a blue lemonade. My wait was not long. The waiting area in the restaurant is VERY small, so waiting in your car until your order time would be ideal. Our food was still warm when we got it home. The chicken wing platter was good: chicken fresh, crispy, not greasy; the home fries were seasoned well; the eggs were not my favorite, they were bland even with the cheese; the grits, although I don't eat them, my other party said they were cooked well they just needed salt and pepper. The French toast platter was a true winner: the French toast was delicious and needed NO syrup! Light, fluffy and with just the right amount of sweetness. You can also get the French toast as the bread for your breakfast sandwich! Gonna have to try one the next time. The blue lemonade was really sweet, so if that's your thing, you won't be disappointed. All in all, a great breakfast (they sell lunch too) place to come pick up a great meal.

    Grits with cheese

    I'd like to start this review with a tip: if you plan to order from this place, make sure to order online, as they do not accept walk-in customers. With that said, I love this restaurant! The staff is courteous and friendly. The establishment is a typical carryout, and despite what others say about the neighborhood being sketchy, it looks like a standard neighborhood to me. I felt safe and followed my usual rules when in Baltimore: don't stare, and mind your own business. I ordered grits with cheese, eggs, and a sausage, egg, and cheese French toast, and everything was fantastic. I will definitely come back!

    Wednesday 3/26/25 This spot came to my attention from a Mrchimetime TikTok review, and he had ALOT of praise for some of the items, so I had to get them. The waffles and jerk chicken cheesesteak were among the popular items he reviewed, but unfortunately, those items have been removed from the menu. I made a takeout order online and got the French toast sandwich $10.27 and the pancakes & wings $17. Also, the spot is a strictly takeout spot so don't expect any seating. - The French toast sandwich was great. The batter they use is on point, and they either sprinkle some sugar on it or toss it in it to get that sweet French toast taste and flavor. - The pancakes and wings were alright, but nothing about either item was particularly noteworthy or worth getting again. While the pancakes & wings were disappointing, the French toast sandwich was a HIT and is definitely an item I'd come back for.

    Ms Shina has the best food in south Baltimore hands down. My apologies if I cannot find a pic but my reviews don't lie. If you have not been, just GO. Everything is delicious, even the drinks. I once had an issue and dm'd Shina and she made everything whole. Regardless of that, I would have still supported. I said everything was amazing now go try it. Order online for faster results but the wait times are not like before. Enjoy and tell Ms Shina MiMi sent you!

    Fish platter with eggs & grits.

    Let me just say, I had to travel waaaaay across town for this food and my goodness it was worth it. I pre-ordered fish, eggs, bacon, chicken wings, fried potatoes, French toast, grits, half n half, and a blue magic drink. The location is very small inside, so just wait in your car until you receive the message that your food is ready. When I arrived, I waited an extra 20 minutes for my food & it came out hot and fresh! Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection! What stole the show was those perfectly seasoned chicken wings and fried potatoes. I am going back tomorrow for those items specifically! Yes, they were that good! I spent about $70 for all my food to include the drinks, and I'll do it again! Disclaimer, I am not a sweets person, I know the name of this place is called Sugar Mamma's, so I took a chance going here. The half n half and blue magic drinks were very sweet, I had to cut it with water. With that, I would still go back and buy it again lol. I only have a few photos of my food as I couldn't wait to dig into it. Next time.

    Salmon BLT
    Cello's P.

    So I decided to finally give Sugar Mama's a taste. After always seeing the food on Instagram I ordered something to see if it lives up to the hype. The food was amazing this was easily some of the best salmon I've ever tasted. I still don't know what's the sauce they put on it but it's delicious. My only thing is the location was hard for me to find parking & had to park a block up but other than that I had no issues. Have to circle back for another update cause I heard the breakfast is can't miss as well

    I came to visit my daughter from Houston. I told her to go on tik tok to find us somewhere to eat cause I was starving. She sent this spot so we took the 27 minute drive. I already knew the spot would not compare to Texas breakfast because of course we do everything better, but they proved me wrong. The food was awesome! I wont lie, we came prepared for a sit down breakfast but this is a take out only spot. You walk in and you see the chefs in action!! You order online and you wait til they text you that it's ready. Don't let the neighborhood stop you from going. Park on the street and you will be fine. I got the fried salmon and grits and they were to die for!! My daughter got the French toast sandwich but you have to be ready for the sweet and savory! And that Kool aid definitely will have you knocking on diabetes door. We definitely plan on returning tomorrow.

    Omg i ate this food so fast... I'm not a big breakfast person but everything was so good. This review is based solely on sampling off someone else's DoorDash order. The food did arrive warm. Bacon crispy Eggs I don't even eat eggs like that but they were amazing The French toast was very tasty you don't need syrup. The grits were a perfect consistency needed more salt and pepper but tasty nonetheless. I've been hesitant about going to the location to try them but I will be door dashing them soon.

    Ordered via delivery. Fish and grits dish was well seasoned, but I wish the fish was put in a separate container for delivery so it didn't get soggy

    French toast platter add Fried Chicken; French Toast Sandwich sub Turkey bacon
    Shai M.

    Sugar Mamas did not miss! We had the French toast platter with Fried Chicken, the turkey bacon French toast sandwich, and home fries--every bite was flavor packed. Heads up: the wait can be long, so order online and wait a bit before arriving. Definitely worth the wait!

    Fried fish platter
    Arista W.

    Baltimore is always an adventure I will say that lol. The food is delicious here, might not look it but it is. I had the best fried fish from here. So fresh and crispy and it wasn't greasy! The service is great and the food came out in a timely manner. My best friend and I want to come back to try other items. Everything looked so good.

    French Toast Platter: scrambled eggs, grits w/ cheese, and sausage.
    Jahnae N.

    Recently went here for Sunday breakfast. Ordered online and the service was quick. There was a few people ahead of us when we got there but we were in & out within 10 minutes. The place has a carryout vibe and there isn't any seating. The food was delicious. It reminded me of weekend breakfasts at my grandma house. The french toast is very sweet so be mindful, but all the flavor, softness and crispy edges made it a 5/5. The sausage was good, the scrambled eggs were fluffy and cheesy (both 5/5) The only thing that I didn't rave over was the grits, the texture was fine but it lacked seasoning. And i understand because everyone likes different seasoning on their grits. I would ask for salt/sugar/pepper packets if you want seasoned grits. All in all, i would go back.

    French toast, turkey bacon, egg and cheese sandwich
    Lauren C.

    This place did not disappoint. I was craving a turkey, bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich for breakfast and I stumbled upon this place, which took my turkey bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich to the next level by changing out the traditional toast with French toast. Where has this sandwich been my whole life? For starters, I used the online ordering system which made ordering very easy as the app lets you know when your food is ready as there is nowhere to sit in this place. As I stated previously I ordered the French toast, turkey bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich with a side of cheese grits, and an orange juice. The star of my meal definitely was the sandwich as it was sweet, savory, and very filling. The grits weren't really anything to write home about. For me they were just your standard grits with a little bit of cheese on top. The orange juice was a bottle of Tropicana. The staff was friendly. My food was made fresh to order and came out hot. All in all, if you're looking for a place that makes a solid breakfast, this hole in the wall spot is the perfect place for you. Definitely recommend.

    What is the blue crush drink?

    Is this in west baltimore?? Is the neighborhood/location safe to go to?

    Yes, it is West Baltimore. The neighborhood, Irvington, has its charm but is also a poorer city neighborhood. I generally feel safe when I have gone through the neighborhood, but I would probably not go after dark. If you're uncomfortable parking…

For a lager-focused brewery, they actually had a really impressive variety of beers. My husband and I both went with IPAs, and we were pleasantly surprised by how unique and robust the flavor profiles were. I only wish one of our favorites had been available in cans to take home! There were also two completely different experiences happening while we were there, a craft event meetup and a make-your-own ramen noodle experience. Both sections were packed, but there was still plenty of other seating, so it didn't feel crowded or overwhelming. We also had a great time chatting with the bartender and hearing about the brewery, its opening, and their experiences. That kind of personal interaction really added to the visit. It's a great new local spot for us, or maybe not actually new, just one we somehow completely missed until now! I'm definitely glad we know about it now and will be back.

While it was a bit noisy, it was an otherwise inviting space. Since it was my first time here, I opted for some flights. Honestly, every beer was solid. I got mostly sours, porters, and stouts and I would get any of them again. I have to be in a very specific mood for an IPA, but the one I got was nicely hopped, but not overly so with a solid piney and grapefruit flavor. They have a respectable selection of food items. It can be a little something to pick at or a proper meal. I thoroughly enjoyed my bratwurst with sauerkraut and would get it again. The mezze platter was okay; I think it could benefit from some veggies instead of (or better, in addition to) the pita chips. I would definitely come back. Recommended!

Located in the Pigtown area of Baltimore this tiny eatery is serving up new homestlye soulfood, such as honey old bay crabby biscuits, fried salmon bites, and fish & shrimp tacos. I opted for the chicken and waffles this go around, which was decently tasty. The order did specify it was tenders and not wings to be served, and I was set on the tenders. So notification to the customer that they would have to switch out the type of chicken would've been nice. However, the hot honey jerk sauce on the wings was delicious and definitely spicy. The waffle was light and airy, however, no syrup or butter was provided in the bag for the waffle. But the star dish was the shrimp tacos. Filled full of crispy shrimp, a little slaw, and this boom boom style sauce. One of my favorite items on the menu.
