Ma Mama's Kitchen - New Roads

We have eaten here last week and wow! our opinion on the best food in new roads and most restaurants in baton rouge area. our waitress dawn was from the diagram! she was human and has good human skills. we felt like on Sunday night in the house of my mama.

I cannot say enough about eating, service and the atmosphere of the restaurant. we had a family meeting there and donna, angie, and the entire crew was hospitable, efficient and friendly. they took care of everything, and I enjoyed my family.

I ordered the red snapper, which was heavenly. Mom enjoyed the shrimp portobello and surprisingly finished every last bite (despite her busy lifestyle!). My brother chose the Chicken Point Coupeee with a perfectly baked, non-greasy loaded potato. My sister-in-law opted for stuffed mushrooms and a Caesar salad (she’s watching her carbs). As for my nephew, he had the shrimp and fries, and while I expected him to love the shrimp, he devoured the thick-cut fries as well. The starter bread was decent, but I would have appreciated some butter on the table. Overall, everything was lovely, and the staff were sweet and patient with my nephew. Here are a few tips if you decide to visit: 1. Prepare to indulge in everything – it will leave you satisfied before you know it! A stroll along the river afterward was nice. 2. This place is spacious, charming, and full of old character. 3. The staff is great with recommendations if you're uncertain about what to order. 4. Parking can be limited since it's located downtown, but that’s to be expected. All in all, it was a wonderful dining experience!

Our server Angelia was fantastic! The food was delicious, but she made the experience even better!

One of the best restaurants in the Baton Rouge area, and among the finest in Louisiana. The food is outstanding, and the atmosphere is just as enjoyable. It's definitely worth the thirty-minute drive to New Roads for Sunday brunch.
