Mama Jean's Restaurant

Basic meat and three. However the meat and three are wonderful. I had the chicken fried steak, with okra, green beans, and pinto beans. Washed it all down with a bath tub sized ice tea. IT WAS AWESOME! Don't let the lazy atmosphere fool ya. Good food, nice service even when they were shorthanded. I'll be back! BTW the apple cobbler was out of this world.

Lots are suffering from employee turnover. Cooks mainly.
Today's country fried steak was overcooked and peach cobbler was paste with tiny piece of peach. Slaw was tasteless. I am glad they are holding on.

The best catfish and hush puppies in the Shoals. I've tried them all. Good service, friendly staff and lowest prices. I'm a regular now!

AVOID UNTIL PANDEMIC ENDS. This restaurant was once good but should be avoided now without competent management or staff. All but one table in the dining room was piled with dirty dishes and old food. With a nearly empty restaurant, it took almost an hour to get our appetizer which was UNDERCOOKED/RAW and looks like it had been dropped on the floor. 0/5 will not be eating here again until management is changed.

Quaint, a down home restaurant.
Simple in appearance and menu.
Not a fancy place but for 6.50 as a lunch special- how do you beat this!!
A daily special every day, lots of sides to choose from, good variety outside of the daily special.
Worth going to if you want value decent food and nice people.

Sunday, church then Mama Jean's. They are always hospitable and the food is what I ate at grandmother's, Southern and filling. While waiting on your order look around and be thankful you live in America. Don't to forget to bless your food. Enjoy.

I am a big fan of this place. Their breakfast is honestly my favorite of anywhere in town. It's not a fancy restaurant but you can't beat it's southern food.

After Church in Alabama, go out to Mama Jean's, get you a great deal. 1 meat and 3 vegetables. You get to pick the meat from a variety of about 5 options, including Catfish filet. The vegetables from about 20 options. 4 kinds of bread, and 5 desert options. I went light, 1 meat and 2 veggies. I had Catfish which was excellent. Fried Okra and butter peas. Both excellent as well. Add a big glass of Sweet tea and you are right in the heartland of good ole southern cooking. If you are in the Florence area, stop in and enjoy a good meal. It not fancy, and the seating is a little tight, but the staff is friendly, and you will enjoy some home grown restaurant feel and experience.

Simple and perfect. The place down the road was packed and people were leaving without getting seated. So I came here, got seated immediately and food came right out. Simple limited menu but they do it right. I left FULL for under $6!

If you're looking for a place to stop on the road, pull over here! It's Southern comfort food at its finest, and the prices are incredibly low (99c homemade chocolate cobbler? Yes please!). You'll love the food and hospitality.
