Great little family style restaurant. I stopped for biscuits and gravy, The serving was two biscuits it was more than I could eat. The gravy was really good not too spicy not bland, and biscuits fresh and not dried out. Service was friendly and took care of everything with a smile on his face.

Been a while since I stopped in so thought I would check in. Ordered the Chicken Fried Steak with 3 vegetables ( I chose Mashed Potatoes, Fried Okra, and Baked Squash) special, ice tea, and came with choice of roll or cornbread. (I had both) Thought I would try brown gravy for a change as I like it on my Potatos normally or on a smothered Steak. CFS was cooked perfectly and seemed to be homade but was not as hot as I hoped but was at a perfect temp to scarf it down lol. Brown gravy was way too salty and also needed some black pepper. Mash potatoes were perfect and just lumpy enough to give a real potato taste. Okra was not as hot as am used too but it was at a temp to enjoy the entire bowl pretty quick. Baked squash was the only miss. It was kinda bready and sweet. I was hoping for bigger pieces of squash and more squash flavor. Roll was perfect! Buttery, Soft, warm, fluffy and delicious. Cornbread was just right sweetness but need more cornmeal and less flour as it was too bready for me. Overall great experience and server was great, fast and friendly. Will be back soon. I added pictures of the menu as the ones I could find were old.

Love the small, hometown feel anytime we walk into Mama’s Daughter’s. Makes me feel like I’m back in West TX. Can’t beat the prices and great service!

What an absolute gym of a restaurant this was. We were driving from Grapevine, Texas back towards Georgia and we're going to stop at a different place that turned out to be closed. How lucky were we? We tried so many different things on the menu and every single one of them were fantastic. Two items that I thought were exceptionally good were the onion rings and coconut meringue pie. If you live locally and you've never tried this place, you are missing out. If you are anywhere near this on the highway or passing through town, I'd highly recommend coming and trying this restaurant. On a side note: I was glad to see that they had Heinz ketchup. You will not be disappointed with this restaurant. Highly recommend!
