About this place

In Lexington, Jj's Mama's Soulfood & More Llc reads less like a checklist stop and more like a local table you hear about from someone who already ate there. a family-friendly room frames the visit; an easygoing pace keeps you from rushing the meal.

The cooking favors clarity over trend: house specialties, plates built for sharing, and the kitchen's daily strengths show the kitchen's habits more than a marketing list.

Service reads as attentive without hovering - the kind of room where questions about the day's specials get straight answers. Weeknights usually run quieter than weekends. The listing address is 601 W 5th Ave, Lexington, NC 27292.

That is the Platefolk brief in one stop: Jj's Mama's Soulfood & More Llc in Lexington, a solid meal on the table, and a visit that still feels like someone else's good tip.

Before you visit, skim recent neighbor notes on the listing and confirm hours on the door. Platefolk keeps this page as a field guide, not a frozen brochure - the best proof is still sitting down for a meal.

What we value here is consistency: a kitchen that repeats its strengths, a room that does not treat guests like tickets, and a Jj's Mama's Soulfood & More Llc visit that still feels worth the trip across town. Bring curiosity, order something the staff recommends, and leave a short note afterward so the next diner arrives wiser.

Go try it for yourself and thank me later😋😋😋I had the pleasure of meeting and taking a picture with the owner and cook. Go get your belly full and thank me later. Those collards were on point..I was going to ask for a side of pot liquor(the juice etc.). That’s how good those greens were..go try for yourself. I’m not going to say thank me later.. I already feel you’re thankful I did. Stay encourage and be blessed. Have a good day on Purpose!

Sheree was amazing. My first time dining and she made me feel welcomed. Let’s not start on the food. The fish dinner: immaculate! The banana pudding: amazing! The drink: like home! I’ll be back my next drive through!

OMG....I was not ready for this Sunday buffet!!! When I tell you I was up at the buffet FOUR times. Plus it was not self serve which was VERY sanitary and the servers gave enormous portions!!! Met the owner who prepared and cooked everything. I had to take my belt off before leaving. GREAT PLACE TO EAT!!

We got there around 430 Saturday, you have to pay for your food before you eat 🫩. Ok we waited paid etc.. I ordered fried chicken (Good 👍🏾) Collard greens (Salty ugh 😫) sweated all the way home ended up with cabbage because they was out of EVERYTHING ELSE. Maybe they just need extra help. They owner was nice the cashier was EXCELLENT she was busy busy and maintained good customer service.

Absolutely delicious soul food! Everything is made fresh to order, and you can taste the love in every bite. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food and great people.

Soulful as it gets! Had the wings and shrimp with fries and mac and cheese (they don't do the Shrop plate on Sundays). Wife had the Baked spaghetti and son had the sliders and fries! Everything was exceptional! Some of the best fried chicken I've ever eaten and that's saying alot. Great customer service and clientele! We will make this a regular spot when driving through!

Stopped by as we passed through Lexington, NC.Good food! Great to see this establishment busy and thriving. 90% of the folks who were in the line were new customers. I met a faithful customer picking up his regular, Neck bones, rice and gravy.We had turkey wings rice and gravy, mac and cheese and yams.Per my 12 year old daughter the mac and cheese was blessed and highly flavored, amazing!If you go be patient and now that great food takes time.Take care of our small businesses!
