I Doordashed s o I appreciate the fact that they individually wrapped all my food to ensure that it wasn’t tampered with. That’s a BIG PLUS IN MY BOOK! The Fish was awesome. Meatloaf awesome! Yams and greens awesome!! Baked beans awesome ! Only thing I didn’t care for but it was not the worse was the pinto beans.

I just recently visited J’Maes again since having not been since I left my temp job in Toledo in 2021. I ordered a pork chop dinner with three sides (macaroni and cheese along with double cornbread dressing). The food was so ; and it was very reasonably priced. It was one of the best home cooked soul food meals which I one could get at such an establishment. Thank You J’Maes!

ATTENTION ALL TOLEDO AREA RESIDENTS!
This is definitely one of Toledo’s best restaurants. The food is incredible and the service is friendly and professional. I wanted to order everything on the menu. This is true soul food cooking. And “White people” you need to check this place out, lol! I ordered the rib dinner which comes with 3 sides of your choice from a big selection. (I chose potato salad, collard greens, and black-eyed peas.) A sweet tea to drink. Everything was perfect and the food was delivered quickly. Let’s support our local small businesses by making this one of your regular stops. Conveniently located in the Southland shopping plaza.

We were passing through town on a trip and needed food for my daughter and I. Did a Google search on good food near me and this restaurant popped up. Guests mentioned home cooked meals like roast beef, which sounded perfect for this day! We stopped in and took a chance and I’m so glad that we did! I got the roast beef and got to choose three delicious home-cooked sides. The mac and cheese was delicious. The roast beef was so tender and a very generous portion. And then came desserts. I usually don’t purchase dessert, but there was no resisting the enticing choices that awaited in their coolers behind the checkout counter. We ended up purchasing lemon cake, carrot cake, and chocolate cake, and shared them over the next few evenings as a treat. They were all just as delicious as the rest of our meal and huge portions, tons of frosting which made my gut happy, and very reasonably priced! I will add this stop into my routing anytime I am in that area. I wish it was closer to where we live. I look forward to returning and enjoying this food again.

Tamesha was TOP NOTCH with her customer service, my left knee was acting up and I made a personal special request and this sista smiled and said “
I can do that for y’all, “My wife does not like asking for things so she gave me a look, lol.
I accepted the yes from Tamesha.
When it comes to the food, let’s start with the one negative, the Cabbage and Dirty Rice came out lukewarm, and not hot.
I enjoyed my fried okra, Fried shrimp , and dirty rice, ok the shrimp was from frozen, but it was still pretty good.
My wife says the blackeyed peas and yams were fire .
She loves my from-scratch gravy so she had a bit to say about the gravy that was over her Roastbeef but hey, lol I’ve burnt MANY Pans before perfecting my gravy, lol.

Excellent service, we ordered on the phone to pickup food from the restaurant and take home to eat. Very good communication on phone. When we arrived to pick everything up all food was packaged neat and securely. We ordered and array of items to try out, portions were great and everything made our taste buds happy. A highlight in the meal for me was the mac n cheese and yams. I said, “is J’Mae someone’s grandma because this is like the best comfort meal you look forward to all year!”
If you’re in the area don’t pass by this spot!
And get the dessert too!

Our server was awesome, she was super nice and helpful with our questions. We both had the catfish sandwich meal, I had black eyes peas and my aunt had greens for sides. First off, that catfish is NOT to be tarnished by bread. The crust on that fried catfish was so buttery, like fried cornbread over perfectly cooked fish. I wanted to take a whole platter home. Black eyed peas? Give me a second serving. The greens were great. My aunt likes vinegar in her greens, I dont. There were the perfect mix, a little taste to satisfy both preferences. I wanted Home food while out of town, and I found a new favorite place. I can’t wait to go back, I will be there everytime I pass through Toledo.
