Ordered delivery July 2025. Bread inedible , was so soggy I could squeeze the liquid out. Meat was of low quality , grey, fatty, no flavor, . No pride taken making this food. I’m 40ish , I know what good food is..and this is not it.

After a long walk around Oshkosh, Fatt Mamas was a welcoming oasis. Immediately we felt like we had come home, if home was a place where delicious food exists. My catfish poboy was tender, flaky, amazing sauce. Everything you would want, and would not expect to find in the middle of Wisconsin.

I didn’t know what to expect from Fat Mama walking in, but she took care of us. Fantastic service and even better food! Highly recommend for anyone who loves a good BBQ sandwich or for anyone who wants to step out of their comfort zone and try something new. 10/10 will be returning very soon!

Great place, people, and food. I usually order po boys whenever I can find them, and these are the best I’ve had (not counting Louisiana—never been). My wife’s brisket was so good, I ordered one to go. They treat you right.

This is the ultimate don’t judge a book by its cover. The atmosphere is very nice. The free kool aid was an added bonus. The catfish was incredible and the hush puppies were the best I’ve ever had. It’s a surprise there isn’t fat mamaas franchises everywhere across the country

Have wanted to try this place for a long time and decided to try it today.

Ordered the catfish and it was the best catfish I ever had. Seasoned well and so were the fries.

Ordered red beans and rice, collard greens, and fried okra.

My fiancé ordered a poor boy sandwich and liked all the food as I did.

One of the best restaurants in Oshkosh! Soooooo good! Amazing food!

I have had amazing bbq in 3 places in Memphis and this food was right there!

Will be back there again for sure!!!

The food at Fatt Mamaa’s is INCREDIBLE! It may not be healthy for your body but I have no doubt it is good for your soul. A friend and I ended up ordering 2 dishes each because we wanted to try the whole menu (of course we couldn’t do that due to how many items are on the menu). Mamaa herself cooks and serves the food and the fact that she is a one woman show is highly impressive. Not only will we be coming back but I plan to have her cater my wedding. Thanks Mamaa!

Fatt Mamaa could serve me frog eye salad (not my favorite), and I would come back for more; because Mamaa foremost is food for the soul.

As a bonus, the food really is as good as the other reviewers say it is.

When you go there (not if), give Mamaa a big hug for me, and try anything (or everything) on the menu.

I can't get enough of this restaurant! For the price you pay you get a great amount to eat and it is always fresh. Fat Mamma is so friendly and quick to serve her customers. Also you can't go wrong with some free kool-aid while you are eating there. Very kid friendly with all the cartoon characters everywhere.

I’m not sure why I waited so long to try this. The spot is owned by a nice woman who does the takes your order, cooks the food and serves you. It’s a small restaurant with only 4 good sized tables but it was full on Friday night and people kept coming. The owner did an amazing job taking care of everyone and she was super kind. The food was great. I ordered the catfish. it was hot, it tasted fresh, the fried food didn’t have any old oil taste. The fries were seasoned perfectly. The cornbread was phenomenal, its was really airy and moist and had just the right amount sweetness. She was out of greens when I came but I can’t wait to go back to try them, along with the namesake of the spot, a po boy sandwich. If you haven’t tried this place out, give it a shot.

Went to Fat Mama's with some friends. Never been there before, small hole in the wall type of place. But the food was fantastic we all ordered the Friday special. Catfish po boys sandwich, very flavorful and tasty! Also had the free kool aid she had set up. The owner was very sweet and made sure we were taken care of the whole time we were there. Plan on stopping by again soon!

I got the shrimp po boy and collard greens, which were both delicious. Fat Mama makes everything herself and is so so so kind to all of her customers. There was also self serve kool aid that was super sweet and tasty. You have to check it out!

Catfish PO'Boy!
It may be a weekend exclusive, but the Catfish PO'Boy is absolutely to die for. I'm no fan of coleslaw, but even I enjoyed every bite. It was absolutely delicious and filling while being just the right size. Service was amazing and atmosphere was fun and unique. I know where I'm stopping again next time I visit Oshkosh!

First off this place does not disappoint at all. I was welcome as soon as I came in the door at 3pm on a Friday to Kool Aid and kindness. This place and the people are some real amazing folks and she is holding it down putting out amazing food that doesn't miss.

I picked up early dinner and got the Catfish & Fries, Pulled Pork and Pork Chop Sandwich with an assortment of sides. So let's break it down.

Entrees:
Pork Chop Sandwich - Solid 15/10, I tell you it's the best thick and juicy pork chop I have ever eaten in my life. Bone-in on a good quality roll topped with onions, peppers and the works. Hands down one of the best things I have ever put in my mouth.

Pulled Pork - 10/10, The pork in phenomenal! Seasoned and flavorful but you can still taste that tender supple pork. So good!

Catfish - 9.9/10, The catfish was fried perfectly, crisp outside and juicy inside. It was a touch salty but not in a bad way but worth noting if you're sensitive to seasoning. Overall best I have had in years.

Sides:
Fried Okra - 100/10, this Okra took my wife to church and literally made her cry. Fried right crispy outside and tender inside. Seasoned well and yes some breading fell of but even the Okra without the breading was tender, seasoned and delicious. Ain't no slime around this Okra and a must get if you come by.

Potato Salad - 10/10, Better than my Mama's for real. Seasoned, a little sweet and tangy with a perfect consistency. Very good.

Coleslaw - 9.5/10, it was good coleslaw not too sweet or seasoned just right with a fresh crunch that was very satisfying.

Cornbread - 9.5/10, very good cakey style corn bread that is not too sweet or savory. This cornbread lands right in the middle and is a great compliment to the entrees.

French Fries - 9.5/10, really tasty crinkle fries that weren't super crisp but they had the right amount of seasoning that made these something really comforting like something your friend's Mama would make for y'all.

Kool Aid - 1,000,000/10, not enough people appreciate really really good Kool Aid. All I am saying.

Overall, this is got to be one of the best if not the best place to get good home cooked food in Oshkosh. If you're in town check them out and pull up to eat some real food made with love.

Thank you for a great experience. We absolutely will be back to try more delicious food.

After a particularly sweaty day on the job site it seemed like a good idea to try something new. Outstanding idea...walked into cool a/c and smile. Got a po' boy to go. Lovely conversation and good vibes. Fat selection of stax and Motown on the audio. Most surprising part was free Kool aid! Much love and will definitely be back... Stay werid everyone..

Amazing food and the owner is a true blessing to Oshkosh! We had a double decker po boy and a brisket po boy and both were outstanding. We found Fat Mamas on Google and came because of the reviews and it totally was all everyone said and then some. Please come help support a locally owned business to help her buy a food truck to showcase her food to more places. Her son was also a great server. Many blessings to her as she keeps growing her business.

Fatt Mamaa's catered our family wedding in Oshkosh. The food was delicious. Pulled pork, brisket, cornbread, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and beans. What a feast! We also asked for another salad, and Shiequane was more than willing to accommodate our request to make something she hadn't made before! Shiequane and all those who assisted her were a pleasure to work with. Thanks for helping to make our day extraordinary!

How about you show up to try out their food? And they have a sign that says, open at 4. But when you try to walk in the door at 4 but it's locked and then they don't even open the door when knocking on the door, if this is a public restaurant, why are the doors locked? If you're open make that make sense, I will never go back to this place. Not to be that person, but just my personal opinion. You let 5 people right before us, I don't have a reason to lie about any restaurant.

The food here was absolutely top tier — the kind of place you could easily see Keith Lee recommending! It instantly reminded us of the incredible BBQ we had straight out of the Carolinas. The owner was an angel and treated us with such kindness, which made the experience even better. We ordered the slider trio and the shrimp po’ boy, and both dishes were packed with flavor. We’re from Chicago, and honestly, this spot holds its own (and even beats out) some of the restaurants back home. We’ll definitely be back!

Pretty Good Po' Boy, Lingering Smell Though - 4 Stars
Fat Mamaa's Po Boyz and Sandwiches definitely knows how to make a good sandwich! I stopped in for lunch today and opted for the chicken po' boy. The bread was perfectly crusty on the outside and soft on the inside, and the chicken was flavorful and well-seasoned. The toppings were fresh and the whole thing came together nicely. It was a satisfying and tasty lunch.
The service was friendly and relatively quick, especially considering it seemed like a busy lunch hour. The prices were also reasonable for the portion size.
However, there was one significant drawback that unfortunately impacted my overall experience. The restaurant had a very strong and noticeable smell of grease. While I understand that some level of cooking aroma is to be expected in a place like this, it was quite heavy and unfortunately, the smell clung to my clothes for the rest of the day. This was rather unpleasant and something I hope they can address.
Despite the delicious sandwich, the lingering grease smell prevents me from giving a full five-star rating. If they could improve the ventilation or find a way to mitigate the strong cooking odors, Fat Mamaa's would easily be a top recommendation for a tasty and authentic po' boy in Oshkosh. I'd consider returning for the food, but I'd definitely be mindful of what I'm wearing!

I have seen so many amazing reviews and posts about Fat Mama's food, so when I had a chance to stop I finally did, and was not disappointed. When I walked in I was immediately greated by I am assuming the owner. She was so welcoming, and kind. I ordered the brisket Po Boy, and she also recommended the fried okra so I got that as well. It was amazing! All of her food tasted flavorful, and like she used fresh and homemade ingredients. Better than going to the commercialized restaurants with their pre-made sauces and ingredients. This food tasted like it was made with love! I highly recommend Fat Mama's, and will most definitely put this place at the top of my list to revisit.

Amazing little food joint! Fat Mama runs the whole place herself and greets you with a smile that will brighten your day. The Mighty Meaty is probably the best burger I've ever eaten! With pulled pork, brisket, a beef patty, and the tastiest homemade sauce; it's worth coming in to try. The fried ochre and hush puppies were fresh and perfectly fried. My wife couldn't stop talking about how great her brisket Po Boy was. She especially loved the saucy coleslaw on top.
We'll be recommending this place to everyone and coming back again!

Fat Mama’s restored my faith in lunch - it can be a real, good meal after all.

This isn’t fast food - Fat Mama will take your order, cook it herself, and bring it to your table. Her hospitality is unmatched.

The less I say about this place, the better. You truly need to experience it for yourself. If you can spare 20 minutes to eat (you can and deserve to), you need to see what Fat Mama’s been cooking up.

OMG yum!!!! We had stopped last week for dinner, it was incredible. The sandwiches used good solid bread that held up perfectly. I had the brisket, it was tender and done right. Hubs had a cheesesteak with extras. We were both absolutely stuffed. The service was top flight, I felt like a treasured guest. Thank you so much 🏆🏆❤️❤️

Stopped on my way home from work and got a 3 piece fried catfish. Hands down the best fish in the area. The breading was amazing and bursting with flavor! Every bite made me want to get up and do a little happy dance. You're also served by the most joyful person you'll ever meet. Her passion for amazing comfort food and for people shows in the final product. When you walk in the door, you're treated like family. I love Fat Mammas and will be a life long customer!

Oh what delightful food! I would easily slot it as one of, if not the best BBQ in the area. The wings are cooked to perfection. The cheese steak was delightful (add some hot peppers!), fries are delicious, mac salad is creamy, and the coleslaw is great. Kids meals are a great value (I snuck some of it for myself... I was not disappointed they were full).
I normally am not a cheesecake fan (in fact I strongly dislike it). This was some of the best I've ever had. It tastes just like the cheesecake my 90 year old grandma used to make!

My wife and I are so happy to have found this place! It is now at the top of our list.

Went Sunday, she had the chicken philly and I had the beefy bacon. Both sandwiches were amazing! We also had an order of fried catfish as it was the special that day. That catfish is one of the single best things I have eaten. Period. It was crispy, crunchy, flakey, buttery and SO MUCH FLAVOR. Oh and the potato salad! My goodness the POTATO SALAD.

We will be back!

The food was so amazing it makes you wanna marry the chef. It is now in my top 5 places to eat in the state. Found this place randomly looking for a good spot to eat & I'm so glad we did. We could smell the spices in the air walking in. We were greeted by the sweetest woman. Who introduced herself as Fat Mama. The place immediately made you feel welcome. It had the perfect, small, homie hole in the wall vibe. Colorful and happy, with hundreds of signatures & comments full of praise and positivity for the restaurant & the talented owner/chef. After looking at the menu indecisively, it all sounded good . I asked her to surprise me & so did my buddy. She immediately replied I go you honey, told us there was fresh free Kool aid, to help ourselves & away she went. We were excited. You could tell this was real homestyle. The wait wasn't too long but long enough to where you know it's fresh. She brought us out our food. She decided to make us the fat mama burger & a Cheese steak, perfectly cooked fries & homemade Mac N Cheese bites. She described exactly what they were and what was on them. But I'm not sure I got it all, as the smell and look was making my mouth water and slightly distracting 😆. First bite had me like. This burger is so damn good it was hard to believe it!! I was shocked. Fresh, Tender, fully seasoned & perfectly cooked beef with melted cheese thick bacon, sauteed onion, pickle, special sauce & a perfectly toasted bun.. I'm still thinking about that damn burger hours later writing this review.🤯 One of the best I've had. The cheese steak was tender & rich with flavor. You could tell the meat was slow cooked. Cheesy melted goodness over sauteed onion peppers, beef on a crispy toasted bun. No where else have I had a cheese steak where the meat was this rich with flavor. The fries and Mac N Cheese bites were a perfect edition. Tasty done with a spot on crisp with soft potato center & cheesy creamy middle. You could absolutely taste the love in this food. You can tell it is made by someone who cares about what they are doing & has passion for it. I will definitely be back. I'm already trying to look for an excuse to drive 3 hours across the state again.

WOW! Fat Momma does it right! To start off i had a hard time figuring out what to order when everything on the menu sounds amazing... Finally decided on an Italian Beef (haven't had a good one in years) and boy am I glad I did!! I was a little worried about taking it to go but it was perfect once the au just was dumped on top making it a proper wet Italian beef. Giardiniera peppers were hot (but not too hot) which was nice since alot of places use mild. And the potato salad side was the perfect touch. We'll done ma'am, I will be back, that reopen is calling my name!

I recently visited Fat Mama’s Po Boyz and had an excellent experience from start to finish. I ordered the brisket po boy, and it was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. The brisket was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and juicy. It came topped with coleslaw, French fries, and barbecue sauce, ON TOP of the Po Boy. Which took the whole dish to another level.

To top it off, the owner personally came out to check on us and was one of the kindest, most welcoming people I’ve met. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant was warm and inviting, and the customer service was exceptional.

If you’re in the area, I highly recommend giving this place a try. It’s a fantastic spot, and we should all be supporting small businesses like Fat Mama’s Po Boyz!

P.s. You should open a spot in the ATL.
