Big Mama’s serves down home soul food and barbecue; the cajun and creole dishes might convince you that you’re in New Orleans, not Las Vegas. The decor is pretty basic, but always neat and tidy. And that’s not why you come here, anyway. Tackle a slab of ribs or tuck into a plate of blackened red fish; if you’ve got kids with you, let ‘em try Mama’s mac and cheese – they might never eat that boxed stuff again.

Big Mama's Rib Shack and Soul Food review

Reviewed by musician on February 19, 2006

musician's rating:

"When I was in Vegas, I told some people I was “hankerin’ for some home cooking … Memphis-style.” They said, “Milo, you gotta go see Big Mama.” So I moseyed over to Big Mama’s Rib Shack. And man, was I blown away. Big Mama’s is an out-of-this-world barbecue joint away from the Vegas Strip. Down-to-earth and laid back – a refreshing change from the blaring city lights. You can tell the restaurant used to be a McDonald’s, but the food certainly didn’t reflect that. The mouth-watering ribs and fried chicken brought me back home to Memphis. The homemade mac and cheese was so tasty that I thought my own momma was back there in the kitchen herself. Great atmosphere, great food. Don’t miss it. Do I want Big Mama in Memphis? Come down South, Mama!"
