Mema's kitchen — Restaurant in Riviera Beach

We were looking for a soul food restaurant on our way home from Miami and google led us to MeMa’s Kitchen. The reviews were good, so we stopped by. The place is very small and quaint and seemed to be pretty clean. We would have eaten there, but it was very warm inside, so we took it to go. The young lady who took our order was pleasant , and seemed to know most of the patrons by name, which is a good thing.

For my meal, I had the smothered pork chops, white rice and field peas. It was phenomenal! I also had a side of potato salad, which I didn’t care for at all. My boyfriend had the turkey wings, white rice, Mac and cheese, and field peas. He said that his was delicious as well. The food came out fast, was piping hot, and the portions were generous!

We had the banana pudding and classic pound cake, as well. Both desserts tasted pretty good, but I’m not sure about the texture of the banana pudding. I will probably try a different dessert on our next visit.

We will definitely make this one of our stops either on our way to or from Miami when we visit our son at the University in the near future. We were very pleasantly...

I’m very disappointed!!!!! Like how dare they sell good souse out of a shot glass … I didn’t even make it to the gas station down the street before both cups were gone !! I don’t know who that chef / owner soul providing kind, hearted lady thought she was telling me god bless and drive safe but baby that souse touched my soul and I was very much so say !!!! She just doesn’t know it but she’s now my auntie and the ladies in the front are my cousins!!!!! We’re family now ! The atmosphere the love , the welcoming with open arms just felt so at home ! I may not make it every Friday but I’ve found my souse home ! REAL SOUSE NO BOIL PEANUTS AND SAUSAGES ( now if that’s how you like it heyyy that’s you ) but I was raised of the hood souse Red Jackson didn’t play when Friday came the grill was going and the pots were boiling ! I love y’all from the bottom of my heart...

This little spot is a southern comfort at heart. Im in love with the atmosphere and that distinct aroma of a southern Nana’s kitchen on a Sunday morning or evening. The staff is very polite and welcoming. The prices compared to the portions are astounding. I’m going later today when they open for dinner. This will be my third time this week. The catfish nuggets melt in your mouth like butter, the grits are straight up ecstasy. The liver and onions will make you shed a tear of delight. I’m so grateful I found this place. I may never cook...
