Talk about deliciousness. I happened to be in Baltimore for work and needed somewhere to eat for lunch. I placed a to go order at Sugar Mama's and I was not disappointed. By the time I arrived my food was ready. This is a true whole in the wall spot. There is no place to sit and eat. This is a true grab and go spot. The cashier provided me my food and everything smelled delicious. I raced back to eat. The shrimp and grits is very filling. While it doesn't look like a lot it definitely hits the spot. Big size shrimp with creamy Cajun delicious grits. Really good. My coworker got the buttery panckages so the grits, eggs and bacon. A ton of food for a good price. She said the pancakes were buttery and delicious from the first bite. If I'm ever back in the area this will be a MUST STOP. The food is great and the prices aren't bad. read more

Sugar Mama's is a real treat! They greet you with a smile, cook your food with love and send you on your way, smiling! This is my regular, French Toast Sausage Egg & Cheese sandwich, simply delicious. Even after the meal, I reminisce on the goodness You must stop by and try one! They have a bacon egg and cheese as well as a steak egg and cheese variation. The whole menu is love, but this joint right here . . . You're welcome read more

I didnt go inside of the restuarant but its a strictly a takeout place. The is only street parking. I ordered the chicken wings, fish and grits. I loved the wings their fried perfectly. The fish and grits were overwhelming because they stuffed the fish and grits in a small to go container. The fish was alittle salty and the grits were good. They gave great service because when we placed our order over the phone they called to tell us they were fixing everything fresh and it may take a few minutes. I would go back to get the wings! Check it out! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

Sugar Mama's - Steak tips, eggs and grits with cheese - Soul Food Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

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. read more

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 read more

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. read more

How I have never left a review for SUGAR MAMA's blows my mind!! I first stumbled upon Sugar Mama's when I was looking for a breakfast place that stated it had amazing food. I didn't even live in Maryland at the time, I was just visiting. I took a chance on Sugar Mama's and it was delicious. I am a breakfast fanatic, I love brunch spots, and Sugar Mama's is top-tier. One of my favorite things are their breakfast potatoes, I would die for their breakfast potatoes. I eventually moved to Maryland and without meaning to I ended up moving just three minutes down the road from Sugar Mama's. I didn't even realize until one day I went on the hunt for a breakfast place. It had been a while so I forgot the name of the place I had had while I was visiting. I decided to try Sugar Mama's, and it was like all these lightbulbs of memories came on, and I realized this was the place that I had tried before. It kind of blew my mind that I ended up moving right next to it. It is soooo good. My partner (CJ) always goes and grabs it for me and everytime he's always so happy when he comes back because they recognized him and his order. This last time we hadn't been in a while because they had gotten crazy popular (deserved) and we didn't want to add to the chaos, but when he walked in, they knew. Little things like that matter so much. But if you made it this far down the review, what are you waiting for? Get yourself some Sugar Mama's!! If there is a wait, it is WORTH the wait! If they can't take anymore orders today, remember it's BECAUSE they are that good and everybody wants some. Try again tomorrow! You won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent food and services. The staff are polite and patient. I highly recommend them.

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. read more

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. read more

Sugar Mama's - French Toast Platter: scrambled eggs, grits w/ cheese, and sausage. - Soul Food Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

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. read more

Sugar Mama's lives up to the name certainly! You have to have a sweet tooth to withstand a meal from here lol. I got the French toast bacon egg and cheese. The French toast is coated in a crunchy cinnamon sugar. The bacon is crispy, the eggs are scrambled, but not too hard it's topped with American cheese. I would've loved for it to be a little more cheesy to help with the saltiness and cut the sweetness a little more. I also enjoyed their drink. I can't remember which one I got but show them the picture that I upload and they'll know! This is a grab and go kind of establishment. It's super tight in there but once you step in to place your order you see how hard the staff is working to complete orders! The music is playing, the team is like a well oiled machine in their communication. It is a small but might team to keep that in mind and have some patience while you wait for your order. Support this business. They deserve it! read more

Are you going to wait?? Yes. Are they on time with the order eta? No. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Chin up, kid, this is worth the wait. Food is absolutely amazing. The wings were crispy and juicy. Everything here is full of flavor. They are crowded and all over the place, but the meal going to heal all of that for you :) Waffles with the honey butter are something to be cherished. The French toast BEC is phenomenal and done exceptionally well. The steak egg and cheese is pretty good and has a good amount of onion on it. The potatoes are soooooo good, sweet and salty kind of seasoning. Fried salmon with creole grits are a must try. The creole sauce is so delicious, and the salmon is fresh and tasty. It's a small space, cluttered, so no dine in. Order ahead and save yourself the headache! You won't regret it. read more

Ordered on Uber at 10:50, arrived at 12:04 in a brown bag sealed nicely. First thing I tasted were the fries... goodt and crispy. Had two pieces of French toast all the bacon two bites of eggs and potatoes and I was full. French toast is sweet like the others say. No need for syrup. Paid extra for onions, was a little sad at the amount they gave as u can see in picture just a spoon full on top. Needed more bacon too. Could have made two French toast sandwiches out of all the food they gave (minus the bacon). I'll taste the wings later. Juices are like koolaid, both very sweet but flavor is spot on. I couldn't imagine drinking the whole thing in one setting. Good portion Good flavor Good presentation read more

highly disappointed, the food is great as always but the service was terrible this time. I support this business on every visit I take to Baltimore as well as visits to DC, on this trip the service I received made my visit very unpleasant. Very unnecessary and very unhelpful. Arrived 40 minutes before close and was told they wouldn't take my order after trying to call in as well as place an order online for 2 hours. No online services/apps were accepting orders so I drove 45 minutes to get there before it was too late and was treated very poorly. When trying to call ahead I was told to order online. After basically begging to get my order taken they told me they can only give me a bacon egg and cheese. Worst visit I've had here. read more

So I usually go with the pancake platter with double grits and bacon. Every now and then I'd switch it up and get French toast platter. The French toast is very sweet so just a heads up! You can't go wrong with either one. So, she just started doing dinners and since I get breakfast from here all the time I decided to try the Catfish dinner. Babbbbyyy, I was not disappointed!! The catfish was crunchy yet flaky. So flavorful and she sprinkles some type of seasoning on type which gives it what it needs. The Mac and cheese was definitely cheesy but not super thick. It's the type that won't harden up into a block if you save it for the next day. The yams were just sweet enough and more like a semi mash but delicious one the less. I always recommend calling ahead when ordering from here and to wait the full 25-30min they tell you. Don't try to show up early or you'll probably be waiting. read more

Out of town visiting decided to try this place out. Wrong move. Service was a 0. Food was a 1. Waffles were cold and super dry. Chicken was raw inside. The fish smelled rotten/old. Seems like nothing was fresh here.staff was rude and very unprofessional. Place was dirty needed to be cleaned . Seems as if they never clean the fryer. If you can stay away from this place. Only thing we enjoyed was probably the soda. read more

We were spending the weekend in Baltimore MD and decided to try this place out it came highly recommended. This carryout restaurant is very small there is no seating. You can only order online. We attempted to walk in there was two people picking up their order and when I stepped in , it was crowded. Just to give you an idea of how small the place is.Anyways we were instructed to order online and come in to pick up so we went back to the car and did just that. My fiance ordered a French toast breakfast sandwich and shrimp & grits. I ordered the French toast breakfast platter. We both ordered drinks and they tasted like straight sugar ! I can't even recall the Flavor I got, my fiancé had an ice tea. The platter was good especially the French toast I give it a 10/10. I paid 50 cents extra for green peppers and unions they weren't cooked ! The eggs amazing , potatoes ok they needed seasoning. It took about 30 to get out food the wait was worth it. Overall I'm glad we tried it please show some love and support this business. read more

I found Sugar Mama's thanks to a FB Reel. Late night scrolling led me to a hidden gem. The influencer posted a video where he gave this place high reviews. Of course I had to try it for myself. I live well over an hour from Baltimore, but as luck would have it I was going to be in the area the next day for an appointment. I don't know a lot about Baltimore , but this restaurant is on the West Side. Thanks to HBO and the early 2000's hit show the Wire they made this part of the city notorious for all the wrong reasons lol. I felt safe and the block seemed quite. I was easily able to find street parking. All orders are taken online. At first that seemed kinda limiting, but this place is basically just a counter in the kitchen. You literally walk through the door make a quick right and you're there. Taking in person orders, while people are trying to pick up orders would be disastrous. They are only open brunch style hours and close at 3pm. I placed my order around 1pm. By then they were sold out of most of what I wanted to try. To say disappointing would an understatement. However, I was still had plenty to choose from, just not what I had originally planned on. I settled on the waffle platter. It came with 4 mini waffles, scrambled eggs w/ cheese, sausage and home fries. Everything was very good. Eggs were very cheesy and tasted freshly scrambled. The sausage patty was nicely sized. 1 was enough for me. Home fries had a very nice crisp and were well seasoned. The waffles were very good. I like mine a tad crispier, but no real complaints. The cinnamon butter was absolutely AMAZING. I smeared that sweet goodness all over my waffles and didn't even need syrup. They could legit sell it by the jar. I also got the shrimp and grits. Really good. Cajun cream sauce has a slight kick, but definitely didn't overwhelm my palate. Plenty of shrimp and the grits were correctly prepared. I washed everything down with the blue crush drink. This took me back to my childhood when I got to make the kool aid. Sweet is putting it mildly. However, I cut it with water and made like 3 other drinks lol. With all that said, I'd still buy it again lol. Overall, I was really pleased with what I ordered. The lady at the counter was very personable and serious about making sure the right person picked up the correct order. She was absolutely not giving up that bag without the order number. She did not play when it came to that lol. In the days of theft, I appreciated her diligence. Over all I was very impressed with what I ordered. Not sure when I'll be up that way again, but if I am, I will def make another trip. I suggest you do too. read more

Sugar Mamas exceeded my expectations!! The food was fire, customer service was awesome, and overall just a great experience. This is a small takeout spot, so taking a few mins to read ahead to learn about the process helped - call in to pre-order your food, and bring a mask to wear inside for pick-up. If there's a few people waiting inside already, wait outside until folks come out. Not difficult, kinda common sense. I waited a few mins on hold to place my order (worth it). The woman taking my order was kind enough to recommend some other dishes when what I planned to order wasn't available. We ended up with the French toast sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese; the pancake platter with turkey bacon; chicken (tenders) and French toast, and chicken tenders and fries. EVERYTHING was delicious, but the standouts for me were the French toast (covered in sugary goodness), the home fries (seasoned to perfection and crispy), and the French toast sandwich (I didn't partake, it looked amazing and told it was really good!) I waited outside a few mins when I got there, and gave my name as soon as I got inside for my order. The ladies at the front were so kind, and do a fantastic job multitasking - taking orders, putting finishing touches on food, packing orders, etc. It made the pick-up experience so much better than some places you go without that welcoming feeling. All in all, can't wait to go back to try some other dishes that weren't available today. Well done Sugar Mamas! read more

Hear me out. WE DROVE AN 1HR AND A HALF TO TRY THIS... AND IT WAS 1000% WORTH THE DRIVE AND THE TIME. My 15 yr old never wants to go out with mom and dad, but when he saw some yummy food on TikTok, her had to convince us to take him up to Baltimore to give it a try. Heads up, this is a take out only joint! Order via QR code inside or on their website. Small but cute and they had some good music playing while they all worked hard with a smile on their faces. It's a little pricy but don't let that stop you! This food is DELICIOUS AND HUGE PORTIONS! It's also specialty items so the price is actually not bad. Now, I don't have any pictures to show off the food but that's because the moment we opened those containers, we immediately lost control and started digging in without any utensils, because who has the time for utensils when you have hot delicious food right in front of you?! My son had the lamb on top of rice with the collard greens and the mac and cheese on the side. Now, my son is a picky teen that had never tried collards before (he hates vegetables), and let me tell you, when he took a bite of those greens, his life changed! He gave the meal a 9.2 out of 10. My fiancé had the bbq chicken with the greens and the mac on the side. Now, my fiancé lived in Kentucky with his dad's side of the family, so he his aunts greens are better, but Sugar Momas comes in second place. He loved how moist the chicken was and how it fell off the bones. He rated his meal an 8.5 out of 10. Now because I knew I as going take food from my son and fiancé, I decided to just order a breakfast sandwich, but it wasn't a basic sandwich. This sandwich was Cinnamon French toast with thick buttery eggs and huge pieces of mouth watering steak and cheese! This was the best balanced breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Oh, they also have drinks. The half and half was my favorite but my son loved the blue drink. They are sweet as heck but great flavor. I would 100% be back! read more

Amazing food as usual. All orders are now made online no call ins. The wait was a little long but worth it. Large portions. The French toast is PHENOMENAL!!! Didn't even need syrup I just put some butter on it. The shrimp and grits were on the spicy side (too spicy for my mom) but I loved it. read more

Let's get straight to the point. Probably the best French Toast that I've ever had!! And that's saying a lot. One of my favorite foods is French Toast, so I definitely think I'm qualified to make such a bold statement. I will say that it may be a bit too sweet for some buuutttttty...not for me! Syrup shouldn't even be included because it doesn't need it. It's definitely going to end up in the trash. So my breakfast platter consisted of, you guessed it, French Toast, bacon, home fries and fried eggs. Everything was good! They don't cheat you on the bacon either. The home fries were the best I ever had as well. Only thing is that I wish I had the option to select a different type of cheese for my eggs other than just settling for American. Washed it all down with a Large Mango Strawberry Passion fruit drink. Dee-lish-us! Now for what you need to know. Order online! There's not a lot of space inside so you don't want to wait until you get there to order. On weekends, you have to order online. Perfect! The other reason that you would want to order online is because of the environment. For some people it could be understandably uncomfortable to go here due to the area that it's located in. The young ladies at the front, though busy, did a great job providing good customer service to everyone that came in. I'm definitely going back. If I lived closer I'd probably go at least once a week. read more
