In April 2020, Momma Luv’s Soul and Caribbean Food restaurant, faithfully opened their doors in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.Momma Luv’s takes pride in serving the community love-infused food for the soul. It’s a giant melting pot of flavors influencing mouth watering fried food options (wings, catfish, shrimp and salmon), but mostly known for the bold and spicy Caribbean dishes (oxtail, jerk, curry and stew). Don’t forget the variety of delicious sides from which to choose as well. Excellent food is irrelevant if you can’t pair it with impeccable customer service, which is one of Momma Luv’s most prominent attributes. Expect to receive a warm welcome and friendly greeting.

Momma Luv’s SOUL And Caribbean Food in San Antonio Review
Reviews
This is the best Carribean food in SATX hands down. I recommend it
Ox tail & rice 9/10
Let the juices settle in the rice from the oxtail after you order 10-15 minutes. Its amazing
Mac n cheese 9/10
Cornbread 9.5/10 top cornbread i have ever head.
Fish 9/10
On this trip, I got a large rice and peas, a large cabbage and a medium size plantain . My husband got the oxtail plate. It comes with the rice and peas and he decided to get collard greens and cabbage as his two sides
#LifeLongCustomers.
What they sell as authentic jerk chicken is the furthest thing from that. They shred a dried out baked chicken thigh that is mixed with barbecue sauce filled with crushed red pepper. No jerk, no grill, no smoke, no scotch bonnet. Literally NOTHING about their so called jerk chicken is authentic. And worse then that, it tastes terrible. There is so much crushed red pepper in it it gets stuck in your teeth.
Nice people though
The soul food items were the highlight of our order. The fried catfish, wings, mac and cheese, and plantains were all very good—flavorful, well-cooked, and enjoyable.
However, the oxtails were a major letdown. They did not taste like traditional Jamaican or Caribbean oxtails, they had an unexpected sweetness and lacked the depth of flavor we were hoping for. My husband couldn’t even finish his plate because he just didn’t like the taste.
The rice and beans were also disappointing. My kids’ rice was dry, and while ours had some oxtail gravy on top, the rice itself had an odd flavor and wasn’t enjoyable. To make things worse, there were only two beans in the entire serving—calling it “rice and beans” felt misleading. It’s called rice and beans for a reason, and this just didn’t live up to that standard. We ended up throwing most of it away.
If I return, I would stick strictly to the soul food options and avoid the Caribbean dishes altogether. The service was excellent, but the food quality was inconsistent.
