Sylvia Mae's Soul Food

Tonya Linares

Miss Sylvia is one of the most genuine people i have ever had the privledge to know. She is alway open and kind to everyone even in the mist of stress. She always has a smile and greeting to every customer that comes in. Her food is truely the delicacy of the Southern mommas kitchen you grew up eating. Everything she cooks is one of a kind.

Awesome experience! The food was fabulous - we had 14 in our group and we tasted each other's dish - all was delicious and they did not scrimp on the servings! Sylvia puts her heart and soul into every dish 💖

Fantastic food, great prices — and very friendly people. There were flies inside the restaurant - food was still good but atmosphere was a little lacking

Don't dare pass this place up!! I saw a segment on "The Texas Country Reporter" about it, and recognized it immediately on Trip Advisor. It's EVERYTHING it's cracked up to be!! Don't be fooled if the parking lot isn't full, or thrown off by the quaint and humble appearance. This was by far the BEST home cooking I've ever had. Sylvia Mae's gumbo is the best I've ever eaten, and I've had The Gumbo Shop's gumbo in New Orleans!! We also had the Chicken-fried steak with mashed potatoes and some tasty purple hull peas. Don't pass up the hot-water cornbread. De-lish-us!! Only wish I would have saved room for the homemade coconut cream pie.
