I don’t know about atmosphere… we got delivery… two appetizer orders of gizzards and two of livers and one corn fritter order.
Gizzards and Livers were excellent and will order again in future. We literally got 5 ea corn fritters in the appetizer order! Uber wanted me to upload a picture for proof of quantity which in theory is RIDICULOUS so I am forced to explain our displeasure here.
The sweet potato cornbread is the BEST I’ve ever had! The red velvet cake .. superb! The rib platter my husband had was SUPERB! ( Mac n cheese and black eye peas) I LOVE MAMA’s Soul food in Brandon. I will be going back WEEKLY! Keep up the good work!❤️😘
I absolutely love some soul food!!! I choose this place because I really wanted to support and have a good dinner…The dinner I got from here was trash! I literally had to throw the fish that came with my meal in the garbage. I ordered the fish and shrimp dinner with mac and Yams. The sides were delish. The fish tasted old or like it was left out for hours, took one bite started to feel sick, so I trashed it. The shrimp was like someone put it in hot grease for 3 seconds and put it in the container. I had to cook the shrimp in the air fryer. I am going to 5 star everything except the food.
Everything was Well Seasoned, cooked to perfection, hot and Fresh. The cornbread was a little overcooked but in the middle it was moist and fresh ! See picture !
It was wonderful food really good southern soul food. Highly recommend I will come again when back in FL. The restaurant very clean even the bathrooms spotless. Great experience and the portions are good and hefty. Thank you! Visitor from Massachusetts…

Came back again today
And it’s still delicious no complaints.!
Excellent service even without servers. The hostess did a wonderful job especially during the busy lunch hour.
Food and presentation was delicious. I had fresh catfish nuggets and shrimp, home style yams, Mac and cheese. My sis ordered tasty smothered pork chops and cabbage. 5 stars on everything
This place is awesome!! THE FOOD IS SO GOOD! The jerk chicken was moist and the rice was tender and fluffy. The candy yams were good.
My husband had the tilapia and shrimp basket and said his was just as great!
We sat in silence because it was so good. I will definitely recommend to everyone!
Nice home cooking and wonderful staff. Excellent ambient jazz music playing softly while I dined. The chicken was not overcooked and the portions were just right.
Having spent time as a youth in the deep south on the poor side of the tracks, I know soul food. Mama's has it in spades. Small and unassuming Mama's does a booming takeout business. Call ahead and get your meal to go. Fantastic fried chicken, roasted turkey, collard greens, lima beans, corn on the cob, gizzards and rice with gravy. You order and pay before you sit if dining in. All the food is served in a take-out containers. I just keep going back when nostalgic and want a happy tummy.
