Testimonials

Amazing!!! The best Fried Chicken I’ve ever had!

Hector

Big Mammas does it rightBEST fried chicken and fish in Omaha!! Truly a hidden gem of Omaha, Ne. Her sweet potato pie ice cream as well as the cheesecake is just one of a kind!!

Austin

An Omaha classic. Served up by some of the most wonderful people in the industry.

Moses

Big Mama’s Kitchen is a must-visit! I’ve been enjoying their sweet potato cheesecake for over a decade, and it’s still my favorite dessert. Their cranberry tea is my absolute favorite, so refreshing and flavorful. The oven-fried chicken and wings are also delicious. I’ve had their catering at events, and it was amazing. Highly recommend!

Orlanda

Chris is amazing! Service with a smile! And the food… oh man amazing as well! Will definitely return!

Liz

Always excellent service and wonderful food-so nice to work with and very accommodating.

Judi

The sweet potato ice cream was AMAZING

Donte

Seriously the best fried catfish I have ever had! We drove from Fort Calhoun and it was worth every mile!! Can’t wait to visit again soon!

Bobbye

Big mama has so much history. Not only from her delicious food but also in the stories she can tell you from growing up in Omaha. You definitely have to try the sweet potato pie although everything is amazing. They have moved into a new building on 30th but haven’t lost anything. Great decision!
