MAMA Seafood Restaurant - Palestine (TX)

5 /5 Wray Westbrook: Great food! The portions were awesome. Lots of food. The onion rings are home made and perfectly done. Fried fish and shrimp were delicious. Peter was our server and he was great. Even though we were there about an hour before closing, everything was fresh, even the iced tea. I would recommend this place to anyone.

5 /5 Cynthia Westbrook: We were here in Palestine after the Polar Express and Mamas looked good. It has a humble but neat outside and inside a quaint diner vibe. The food is primo. Most excellent. I had 6 shrimp, 6 oysters, onion rings, and hush puppies. My husband had fish and shrimp. Took half home so generous portions. Hand breaded too, including the onion rings. Thanks to our waiter Peter who was very efficient and polite.

5 /5 Deborah Naville: It took them a little while .. they were under staffed .. but the food was fabulous .. Mahi dishes were so good !! Yum!

4 /5 James D: Had the 6 piece fried catfish with onion rings & hush puppies, which fed 2 of us. Restaurant was clean. Theye were busy & had an eclectic blend of customers. Fish was better than average for sure. Good serving size, crispy cornmeal batter, well cooked. The meat was a little more oily & mushy than I prefer, as opposed to clean & flaky. Thin areas were tough & a little hard to chew. Dont get me wrong, it was good, just not great. Onion rings tasted great, but were soft instead of crispy. Hush puppies were well prepared & tasty. This is the kind of small business that deserves our support. Though I have had better fish, this place is still far better than most. Definitely worth giving a try & I look forward to returning & trying other menu items.

5 /5 Lisa English-Davis: 5-24-25; 6:30 pm dined in and ordered fried pickles, three catfish plus six shrimps with onion rings and salad; six butterflied shrimp with onion rings and hush puppies; two catfish filets with fries and coleslaw; and a side order of hush puppies. Good food. Good service. Nice atmosphere. Glad we found this place. We ordered takeout and ordered catfish, shrimp, coleslaw, hush puppies, and loaded baked potatoes. We would have taken pictures; but it smelled so good that we had to eat. Definitely a return visit is in order.
