My chicken was perfectly cooked with nicely seasoned crispy batter and it was possibly the best fried chicken I've ever eaten. My sides were also very good. Sweet potato casserole was not too sweet and creamy and the grits were very good. Sharing the spotlight with the chicken for awesomeness wias some perfect coconut cream pie. Service was good, ambience was nice and the chicken and pie were transcendent

The story behind the restaurant is incredible, and the food they serve up is even more incredible. Based on other reviews I read, I knew I had to try the fried chicken. They make it fresh to order and it's well worth the wait. I enjoyed reading various publications hanging on the wall while I waited. The fried squash! OH MY GOODNESS!!! I would seriously drive back just for that! When you are in Jackson, this is a MUST! I'll for sure be back when life takes me out that way. I'm truly grateful for the entire experience of meeting them and enjoying their delicious cuisine.

I am not sure how I have never found this place before now, but I can tell you that everyone else has. This place was packed! Parking was a nightmare. I cut off a cop and stole his parking spot. Yea! Stick it to the man, Adam! Giant community tables full of buffet goers. I wasn't sure if I could find a seat. I was impressed by the size at that point and then realized on the way out there was a whole second floor as well. It is freaking huge! When you pay, there is a little old lady that douses your hands with sprays of sanitizer. I did not care to partake, she did not care, and insisted. We aren't buddies. You can see the stank face she gave me. I don't care though, hater gonna hate. The buffet is rich with country foods. I was in love from the jump. Fast moving buffet food is my jam. They had all the things I like and tons of other things you folks like. I made two trips, I barely got most of the second down so I didn't get to enjoy dessert. That's ok, I like protein way better than sweet things. Thank you Allah for statin drugs! I had all the fried things! Fried chicken livers are some of my faves, especially if there is mashed potatoes and gravy involved. The fried chicken itself was great. Hell it was all good. I see why it's so damn busy. I think it was like $16 maybe. That's with a drink and endless food and dessert. My server was such a sweet lady and the bus staff were great too. They made sure you didn't want for anything and never had a dirty plate in front of you. I will be back as soon as possible. Planning a visit now! '26 - 102

While in line for the buffet one of the workers slipped and fell, dumping a container of corn down the back of my friend's pants. They were ruined. The manager told her "accidents happen." At the very least he could have given her meal free. But he did nothing, barely apologizing. She will never eat there again.

I visited Big Momma's often before I retired, and occasionally since I retired (trying to not get fat). I am treated with kindness and respect every time I go there. It's a family owned business and they work their tails off! When I go, I always think about getting something other than the fried chicken, but when I go through the line, I start smelling that fried chicken and I see that crispy skin and I mouth just starts watering. They are the best "home cooking" restaurant in Ouachita Parish. It would cost you a fortune to have the same order at Piccadilly. Everything I have had on their menu is delicious. The family/owners always have smile on their faces. I took my brother-in-law from Oregon here when he visited and he talked about it the rest of his life. If you're a local and you haven't been here, GO! If you are visiting the area, you won't find better food in the entire parish if you're looking for home cooking, but be ready for a nap! I just promised my own brother, who has never been there, that I'm taking him ASAP! PS....their dessert are THU BOMB! AND HUGE PORTIONS, one is enough for two people. Their lunch portions are huge as well. I often got an order to go and split it with my mother.

We were told there were only a few items left as they had sold out of other stuff. We got the smoothered pork chop, two scoops of rice with the pork chop gravy on top, and a scoop of cooked cabbage. The meal also included a roll similar to a kings Hawaiian, a slice of cornbread, a slice of cinnamon cake, and a choice of drink which was koolaide or bottle water (since I am diabetic We went with water), also a side of hot sauce and small container of cranberry sauce.The man and I shared the plate and it was enough for the two of us or easily one really hungry person. The pork chop was so tender we didn't need a knife and the gravy was so flavorful. The rice was lightly seasoned and I appreciated the gravy on it (next time I will ask for extra gravy). The cornbread was sweet and the roll was soft. I loved the cabbage it was soft and had a sweet flavor to it. Overall I can't wait to go back and try more things on Sundays. The meal was about $14 and some change and that included a 3% credit card charge which was fine.

The cashier was very nonchalant, and I was almost upset about his demeanor, however, after further interacting with him while ordering, I think it had probably just been a long day because he actually was really friendly and encouraged us to come back another time as well. I got a breakfast toaster, which reminded me of breakfast sandwiches I enjoy, and as I suspected, I enjoyed it! The restaurant let us sit inside and wait for our Uber as they reached the closing time, which I really appreciated. It's a small dining room, but probably a good local spot to try out, just get there early!

And this is one of them. Drop by the Old Country Store for a delicious, old-fashioned soul food buffet and a serenade by the chef, "Mister D"! He told us he'd originally bought this property to "flip" it, but soon fell in love with the area and stayed. The Old Country Store features high shelves and ladders from which store clerks used to pick your order; self-serve stores weren't always a thing! Please take a moment to chat with the friendly staff and browse the souvenirs and tchotchkes on the shelves. Leave a note, if you wish. And remember. This is Mississippi. Slow down and sit awhile. Sip on some PROPER Southern sweet tea and soak in the atmosphere. Don't just eat your chicken. Taste it. This is it. Love goes into every bite here. You cannot get any more authentic than this.
