"Not sure how it took me so long to try their food! But I’m sure glad I finally did! I went in Hot Mama’s Canteen on a Saturday night around 11pm. The kitchen was still open , however there was an event happening so there was a woman charging $5 at the door. Our group of 3 were only there for food, we explained this to the woman and she still said we would have to pay the cover fee. So we left, called and ordered take out. I was hoping to enjoy the food there for my first time but everything turned out great anyways. We ordered a Big Daddy Cuban, 2 Mama Bombs, 20 Sophia Loren Wings, and Deep Fried Fire Pickles. (All came as suggestions from my friend) Let me tell you… everything was amazing!!! The Cuban was so delicious! I loved the addition of spam on this sandwich. The Sophia Loren Wings are sooo damn good!! Crispy, crunchy, garlicky, and just the perfect amount of heat!! Definitely a must try! The Deep Fried Fire Pickles were very tasty! I am a pickle lover and these were great. The dipping sauce pairs perfectly. The batter was crispy, the pickle spear had a nice crunch, however I didn’t get much of any heat. I did love them though. The Mama Bombs were interesting but tasty… the outside was great, and the meatball was very flavorful. The only thing was we were missing the red sauce that should have came with it. I’m sure the sauce would have been just what the dish needed. Can’t wait to go back! Also, when we went to pick up our food the lady at the door that was charging the $5 cover apologized for trying to charge us and she seemed genuine and very apologetic for the misunderstanding."

"Coolest hangout with chill staff and they make their own hot sauces. The vegetarian burrito has flavorful greens and lots of cheese and remains a delicious relic in my mind several days later."

"If your a person of color do not go here. I couldn’t believe racist like this still exist comfortably. Yet this place isn’t hard to miss if you’ve only went here for drink because they should pay you to try the cooking. If your a racist and like garbage food, this is the place for you."
