You walk through the door to be greeted with love. The food tastes like love. You meet MaMa T herself. She gets excited to see your face when she sees you eat her unprocessed food. Just pride in her work. Absolutely love it. What ever you pick you'll enjoy. I personally left with 5 plates of food falling off the bones.

Visited Dothan for the first time and it did not disappoint with regard to what we were looking for. Murals, old buildings, historic whatnots and local cuisine from local businesses ONLY.We were driving around looking for great photo ops…this mural caught our attention.We spoke with a very engaging man that was busy controlling the smoker/grill…he’s a Master!!! He gave a back story about himself and the business and it was obvious he knows a lil something about the restaurant business. He ushered us inside and pointed out the staff and their likeness in the mural on the wall. We decided it was time to eat, even though we had eaten a large breakfast only mere hours before. It was time to let Mama T’s jerk us, as the sign mentioned.We got the jerk chicken, beef patty, yams, okra and greens. We also got a surprise sample of the curried goat, OMG!!. They have salt/pepper, Crystal and Trappey’s on the table, but they really aren’t needed because everything is perfectly seasoned.I wanna give a shout out to the young lady that was nice enough to let me lust and drool over her tomahawk pork chop. I know you had a huge smile on your mouth while enjoying that.All of the staff were so friendly and had great vibes. They were so happy and shared their smiles with everyone. When we return for another visit we have our tummies comforted that we WILL return.

Me and my son was in the area visiting family and found this restaurant. The food was amazing. Very delicious. Great portions. Very clean. Customer service was excellent. If you're in this area I highly recommend this place. I had oxtails and my son had smothered pork chop. We also had banana pudding which we ate so fast without taking a picture. It was yummy as well.

I stopped by Mama T's after finding it on Google Maps. The restaurant is very clean, and I love the vibe. The gentleman who was the cook/cashier did a great job explaining the food and prices. I had the hamburger steak, rice, beans, and squash. All were delightful; the hamburger steak was juicy. I also had a piece of red velvet cake that was moist and full of flavor.I was told to come by on Sunday because that's when they have the most food and choices, and I'm hoping to do that soon.

I wanted to share my experience at Mama T's with y’all. It’s such a hidden gem! Me and my friend were in the area and saw the name on the side of the building. I’ve seen posts about it on Facebook but never stopped by. Yesterday, me and my friend decided to stop in. From the moment we got there, I didn’t realize it was Mama T herself in the car with the biggest smile. You can tell she appreciates all of her customers.The food was absolutely delicious. The food was served cafeteria style. Mostly everyone ordered a meat and two sides. Personally, I ordered the oxtails, macaroni and cheese, the collard greens/cabbage mix and a side a chitterlings. The oxtails were hearty and tender. Then the sides were just as amazing in taste. I didn’t know what to expect from the collard greens/cabbage mix but I thoroughly enjoyed it.Other options they had were curry lamb chops, jerk ribs, baked chicken, hamburger steak, lima beans, yams and a whole lot more.I would highly recommend trying it out if you’re lookin for some great soul food!Also, it’s more like a grab and go with a few tables. Definitely worth the visit.
