Best food EVER. Definitely the BEST turnip greens that I have ever had. Turkey wings, who knew?! Wow!! Delicious! Jambalaya, lasagna, sweet potato casserole, and of course corn bread.

Such a gem! Food was great, customer service was so friendly, and the restaurant is so cute! I got the shrimp, okra, sausage, tomato stew with collard greens and beans. Soooo good!

One of my favorite places to stop by and eat when I’m in the Amite area. The atmosphere of mismatched chairs and tables gives it a ‘homey’ experience, and the food is great. It will ‘stick to your ribs’.

In town for a long work trip, Nonna’s is a GREAT place to come for a home cooked meal and it felt like i was sitting at home. Delicious food, excellent service and such a good value.

Home cookin’ at its finest! We rolled in here on a short trip to NOLA from Jackson and they practically had to roll us out! So much good food. I had an extra serving of red beans and rice since it is one of my faves. During the pandemic the buffet isn’t self serve but the waitresses will bring you a little bit of everything. And I mean EVERYTHING! Come hungry because this is the kind of food that’s made with love. And everyone there was so nice! Seriously, if any of y’all are yankees and worried about going to a soul food spot off the beaten path, stop worrying! This is the closest thing you can get to having a nice church lady invite you to her house for Sunday dinner. I cannot say enough about how welcoming, homey and delicious this experience was and we will definitely be stopping by again!

2 out of 3 meals the ox tails were a 5. Last visit was more a 2 or 3. Big fatty piece, several very small pieces that were too tough to eat. Looked like stew meat was added. Overall, the portion was not as big as the 1st 2 meals. Maybe this was just an off day. Definitely didn’t get my $35 worth of ox tails.

A treasure that we found by accident. Service is great, everyone is so nice. The food is some of the best home cooking I have ever had. Will definitely be back when I am in the area.

I thought I posted a review back in June but I guess it didn’t go through so here it is again.-
Our monthly Bayou Girls Road Trip took us to the heart of Amite, LA, today for lunch at Nonna’s Soul Food Cafe. What a wonderful experience! The buffet offers so many wonderful choices of home-style made-from-scratch cooking. Some of our favorites were the roast beef, rice and gravy, seafood lasagna, fried fish, red beans and rice, smothered squash, candied yams and peach cobbler!! Delicious!!
One of the highlights of our trip was to meet & visit with Nonna, the owner and cook! This lady shows her love for God in her speech and actions. She made us feel more than welcome. We look forward to going back.
