Sadly I tried their Ribeye Steak special and it was smoked somehow which made it VERY tough and sadly I have to say this is the all time worst steak I have ever eaten! I have had burned steaks that were more tender and juicy so Mag's loses a star for that. Overall it is a decent spot and one of the few restaurants in this area.

This was my first time in Mississippi and I wanted to try a local restaurant. I searched Yelp and…read morefound this one, decided to give it a try. The staff was extremely friendly and patient while customers made their selections. You go up to the counter to order & pay and they bring your food out when it's ready. The seating area is large, clean, and has a relaxing vibe to it. We ordered the BBQ ribs & tips w/cabbage & dressing, BBQ ribs & tips w/green beans & yams, and the Chicken & dumplings w/green beans & baked beans. The meals all came with cornbread. The ribs had the perfect amount of smoke flavor & bbq sauce. They were also nice and tender. The sides were all flavorful and nicely seasoned, the cornbread was excellent. Highly recommend giving this restaurant a try

We finished with the bread pudding, and the wine flight paired beautifully with the meal. Our server made the evening even better. She was warm, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the food. She explained the flavors in each dish and how they worked together, which made us appreciate everything even more. When I asked whether we could see the farm, she immediately found General Manager Raleigh Swan. Raleigh spent about half an hour personally walking us through the edible landscaping, raised garden beds, mushroom growing room, and hydroponics room. He explained what they grow and how it all connects to the restaurant. Seeing it firsthand was fascinating. The food and service would have made this a wonderful night on their own. That personal tour made it one of the most memorable dining experiences we've had. Thank you to Raleigh and the entire team for sharing what makes The Hope Farm so special. We can't wait to come back!

From the outside, Southern Seafood looks like any regular neighborhood store, but once you're inside you'll know this is anything but a regular store. One side of the shop has fresh caught seafood which you can buy. I bought fresh shrimp. The front of the shop offers soda, beer, and food items. On the other side of the shop they serve the best soul food I've tasted outside of my mom's kitchen. I ordered, which was full of shrimp, crab, okra and it had a huge crab claw in it. The gumbo was tasty and well seasoned. I had two bowls. The catfish was fried a golden brown. The black-eyed peas were perfect and tender. The fried chicken was juicy and crunchy. Everything was perfect!!! I can't wait to go back.

Best lunch in Mobile as of today ! Service was good. However one of our entrees served 5 minutes after everyone else. Definitely recommend this place. One more thing: The pomes frites ABSOLUTELY THE BEST FRIES I HAVE EVER EATEN: BELGIUM HAS NOTHING ON THESE FRIES. I am 75 years old and been all over Europe. This is the birthplace of American Fries. THIS PLACE DESERVES TABLECLOTHS BTW: wood table sticky and did not feel clean due to finish on the table.

A friend recommended a lunch stop at Mama's after a downtown meeting, and I was thrilled to finally give it a real go. (I'd honestly forgotten about my first impression until I remembered) But that's in the past and I'm happy to wipe the slate clean. This visit, the fried chicken special was delicious and perfectly executed. I tasted the pork chop and it was great as well. The Mac and cheese and collard greens that I ordered as sides, all tasty. I cleaned my plate. The sweet tea is also just as amazing as I remember from before when I tasted it in the wild. Service from Emily, wonderful as well.

I was finally able to make a point of making a special trip over there on a Saturday late afternoon. Unfortunately it still wasn't the best timing for a first trip or making a review as we were limited to what we could order based on the fact that their hours state they close at 5 but they shut the kitchen down at 4:30 and we got there just after 4. It's hard going out for dinner to a place that closes at 4:30. I ordered a sausage sandwich which to my delight was not the monotonous Conecuh. It was really good and reminiscent of some of the whole in the wall places in Texas that does good sausage. The only draw back was that being near closing time they didn't have links but was able to do slices. It was good but hard to eat. My hubs got chicken and ribs. I liked the ribs... they still had some bite, tender but not falling apart, and the smoke is mild, not overkill like so many other places do. Hubs wasn't a huge fan of but I thought they were nice. The chicken was on the dry side, but I never go to a bbq joint to order chicken so it's not a deal breaker for me. The only major downer was that all of our sides seemed to be standard pre-made and ordered items, not made in-house. I also liked the hole in the wall vibe, the friendly staff, and the divine smoke aroma that lets you know you're in the right bbq joint. All in all I enjoyed their Q and will need to go back when I can get the timing right to sample their steam table offerings.
