I love her and her potato salad ? the best one i ve had. Thank you mama T

The fish sandwich with fries is sooooooooo good! The fish is full of flavor and the fries are seasoned.

Yes, yes, and some more yes!This is one of Oakland’s hidden gems. My favorite is The Famous Fish Sandwich. If I want a change, I’ll grab some good ol’ fried chicken. Man the food is so good, I can order anything and my taste buds are happy. Mama T is a joy to have!! The love she has for the community is obvious! FYI Miss her with the BS lol ?

Love the food here 10/10, but that isn’t the issue. It’s the workers attitude that’s not it. Had an attitude with me simply just standing in line behind my friend, she rushed us to grab our orders and I got confused because she had both me and my friends orders in her hand and she got loud with me for absolutely no reason. I understand if she’s busy, but there’s a right and wrong way to handle it. Again, the food is amazing but that women better fix her attitude cause she just lost a loyal customer.

Mama T was running this shop herself on the Saturday night before Thanksgiving, and she made us a GREAT fried chicken sandwich and an order of Mac and cheese. Yum yum yum thank you Mama T!

Super good fries and chicken sandwiches! They’re super friendly and helpful. I love this place so much. Family businesses are the best :) They rly care about their customers

Been going since they opened awesome food try the fish sandwich the best in the bay

Tiny little shop that specializes in quick bites like burgers, sandwiches, and fried foods. I keep coming back for the "Famous Fish Sandwich" - a crispy southern-style fried fish filet battered with cornmeal. The sandwiches have always been made fresh, and the prices are very good compared to other shops within the area.

The food is great. Nice folks

Literally the best fish sandwich in the town and probably the Bay! It's always made fresh to order. She has some other awesome menu items but the fish sandwich is my go to! It's a small walkup restaurant in downtown Oakland. Con is parking is terrible downtown but it's worth the headache. Mama T's food is soooo bomb you'll usually have about a 15-20 minute wait because it's a small family run business so if you can call in advance to order it's best. Or even Grubhub! We gotta save this small gem in Oakland! We don't have a lot of successful BLACK OWNED BUSINESSES left in downtown Oakland due to rising cost of living so please stop by for Mama T's amazing fish sammich with extra sauce so we can keep her serving her community! Not only does she cater but I've frequently seen her close for the day to feed the homeless when I worked downtown! We gotta support our own!! Thank you Mama T for all you do for Oakland!
