Mama Dip would roll over. It was a lot better when she was living ( to me ). Under new management and they don’t care. The prices are out rages. Maybe they are staying open because it’s historical, and a lot of the locals patronized. This is not the Mama Dips that I remember. 🥲
😢😢😢 i really hate i had a bad experience . This was truly one of the worst . They simply don’t care about their customers. I really hope after this video they get it together
I came to say the same thing. I live in Chapel Hill and I used to love going there. Whenever we'd have company we'd always take them there. But I went back a few weeks ago for the first time in about three years and it was just sad. It's such a shame, too. This place is such an institution and I wish they'd honor her legacy.
Yes I went when she was still living at the original location and I got the fried chicken and it terrible. My mom went back with her friend and she got the same thing except with collard greens which she said were canned or frozen but were advertised as fresh. When my mom asked Mama Dip about it she said her white clients don't complain,smh. So that goes to show who she is looking to please.
It looks like nothing has changed since the one and only time I went with some friends in the 1990's. We all agreed that they were coasting from the national attention they had recently received and it was a bit of a tourist trap. I think they also get away with making people who didn't grow up in the South think "this is what Southern food is supposed to be about", when people who did know there are better options.
I went to Mama Dips while she was living/there! The food was trash!! No seasoning! Only non-melanated ppl were in there, so I should have known! But the kicker was we spent over $60, and I left the mess on the table! I didn't even want the leftovers!🤬🤬🙄
Wait a minute! You paid $18 for that? Absolutely not! $19 for smothered pork chop plate? Smh! I'm so glad that I caught your review before I drove all the way up there! Thank you for the updates!
Yep, the food and service stink. Too bad, this is an old and established Chapel Hill restaurant. Probably one of the first owned Black owned eateries around. Hats off Chime. You deffo got this one right
I really thought i was the only one or maybe this was just a bad day for them . But buy asking around this seems to be a regular act . It really sucks smh. Thanks for the confirmation ✊🏽
You said it perfectly, "no love". I see nothing has changed since I was there about 15 or 20 years ago. I got their smothered fried chicken which was good, not great. The small portions, price and terrible service were not acceptable. The waitstaff was unpleasant and the cashier was hostile. I remember because I had seen Mama Dip on tv and thought she was adorable. It was very disappointing.
I've been to Mama Dip's several times. I've found that the food has been good sometimes and, well, not good at others. Just inconsistent. But I guess it's more for the tourists that don't know good southern cooking. The real problem with Mama Dip's is that the prices are through the roof for the type of food that they serve. They don't have anything that should cost more than $10.00. If you really want good southern cooking and happen to find yourself in Wilson, stop by Marty's Barbeque. It's incredible!
@@mr.chimetime That's happens to me sometimes - I shut them down quick by loudly saying "DO I KNOW YOU - THEN WHY ARE YOU STARING AT ME THEN?" You couldn't have PAID them to stare after that!!
You have to realize the majority of ppl that reside in chapel hill. Hence no seasoning. Not including the fact that the original generation knew how to cook. But when they pass away the kids that hung out partying and not in the kitchen with big mama learning is cooking the food. IJSl.
The unfortunate thing that I have seen a lot of is when some older black folks have a restaurant and white folks start coming they tend to cater more to that crowd than the crowd who got them where they are today. By the way I am new to your channel and absolutely love it especially with me being a Chef, I hope you come to Kansas City sometime and check out some of our restaurants
Those prices are a insult. SMH. I'm gonna say it again. These restaurants need us as customers we don't need them. They really need to wake they game up
Like why do you take bites like that and that angle? I’m noticing you do it everytime. Is that suppose to be some sexual reference on the low, because you keep doing it like that’s the normal way to eat food. I’m starting to feel assaulted somehow! 🥳🤣😗😗😉
I live in chapel hill and agree you try support every one but notice too not same and barely give no sides and food bland try give couple times i gave up not going back
These restaurants are all the same they coming up short I want to race their prices when they are really low budget I'm so glad you put niece damn restaurants on blast with this bad food and high prices I don't know what to do and happen to learn how to cook at home these people going to kill y'all with their food
Just got back and it was the same. Way, way, WAY OVERPRICED! Still NO seasoning. Food average or below average at best. Service was unwelcoming. Only one of 3 employees who we dealt with even said a word to us. Waiter was pissy like we were bothering him. Mama Dips has fallen so far from what it once was. It’s sad. Charging those prices, yet having to pay 4% more to use a credit card. Ridiculous. They are going through the motions while taking in the cash. We won’t be back.
I'm.from chapel hill and ate at mama dips every Sunday after church..and I can tell you they food changed since she died..they should have left it the way she mad it
You better than me! If I eat at a restaurant and the food is trash, I'm never going back again. It's funny how you kept saying "just like granny's house" and then the only people in there are grannies. 😂 Whenever I see only old people, that's a sign flavor is lacking. They stopped f-ing with spices 30 years ago. 😩
Mane paid $18 for a "Church refreshments" plate 😂😂😂😂
😂

Restaurant so clean they washed the seasonings away!🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, god forbid she try to please her WHITE clients right - can't have that now can we?

You eating that porkchop....I had to run that back!!😂😂
The prices. Are outrageous Everything needs seasoning to taste
That woman couldn't get enough of your handsomeness... LOL!
🤣🤣 nahhhh she was just alll in my face 😩😩😩
@@mr.chimetime That's happens to me sometimes - I shut them down quick by loudly saying "DO I KNOW YOU - THEN WHY ARE YOU STARING AT ME THEN?" You couldn't have PAID them to stare after that!!
I went there back in 2009 and the portion size was very small. I felt like I had been cheated cause it was expensive.
Bruh you say this food trash but the way you fucking it up with them bites I can’t tell lol. Bruh almost maxed that whole pork chop in one go.
Should’ve went to Time Out chicken and coped a biscuit while you were there
Yeap I Agree! Time Out has good food at least it was back in the day. I live over 2 hrs away from Chapel Hill now.
Thanks for sharing.. Flavor is absolutely necessary.
This person is right on, just saw a new review from another person & same problems, nothing changed. Mama don't care & don't give a damn!
Frozen fries are criminal and also piiiiiisss me off 😆!
Damn right ridiculous smh
@@mr.chimetime U SAID DURHAM ITS ACTUALLY IN CHAPEL HILL
"I ain't trying nothing else." (I am dead)🤣 Chris, you are so funny! (You look like your name should be Chris)
Why you take so many bites of the pork chop like that my guy.
I just started watching your channel and I like the honest reviews

Did it ever occur to you that maybe the "White crowd" is who got them where they are today.
Im never seen anyone eat like him!😂 n i thought i was a real foodie💜
I love Chime but the way he
shoves the food in his mouth 😮
@@mb1969mb need to stop that shit

Righttttttt not hard at all
Mama Dips is in Chapel Hill...boo boo! Don't put this one on Durham...lol! Accurate review doe!
All of that was out the freezer. Sadd no cheff back there..microwave oven on point 👌 👏 lmaooooo 😅
Some cooks use batter and no seasoning. If you had high blood pressure, you'll be safe.
Those prices are a insult. SMH. I'm gonna say it again. These restaurants need us as customers we don't need them. They really need to wake they game up
I swear places like this that stay in business for years or money laundering fronts.
TRAGIC... i was going there monday for my bday...
Oh sheesh .. smh you should try it you might like it
@@mr.chimetime idk bro. lol.
@@ronblaze7175 🤣🤣🤣
try Merts heart and soul in Charlotte....a hit
The hardwood look like it got more taste than the chicken🤷♂️
You bite entirely too much food at one time, I can’t tell how you know what it tastes like because you have too much chewing to do!!!
😂
Like why do you take bites like that and that angle? I’m noticing you do it everytime. Is that suppose to be some sexual reference on the low, because you keep doing it like that’s the normal way to eat food.
I’m starting to feel assaulted somehow! 🥳🤣😗😗😉
You mention a few times that Mamma Dips is in Durham, but is is Chapel Hill!
🤣🤣🤣i feel ur pain. Salt and pepper are essential. Hell no 9min smh.
You complained about the woman staring at you...you ARE handsome sir. 👀
I live in chapel hill and agree you try support every one but notice too not same and barely give no sides and food bland try give couple times i gave up not going back
Wow!!! Frozen fries???? 😮
That’s damn near Cali prices with them overpriced skimpy trays
Dang dude …… u eat it likes it’s good 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They need to sell their food to people with Covid because their sense of taste takes a hit. ;(
What's your gas bill?
Mama Dips would be rolling in her grave if she saw how much this place is gone downhill. Great videos tho.
It truly is sad
Mr Chime THANK YA!!!
U could have gotten that 🍗 from Colombia in high point they that small son😅
These restaurants are all the same they coming up short I want to race their prices when they are really low budget I'm so glad you put niece damn restaurants on blast with this bad food and high prices I don't know what to do and happen to learn how to cook at home these people going to kill y'all with their food
Man i hate soggy fries. 🤬

@@mr.chimetime please don’t eat like that no more. I don’t know what you we’re getting at but that ain’t it
Right...were is thr food! For $17?? Nah
Why you throw the fry like that 😂
Why do you put so much food in your mouth?
Mama Dip’s is in Chapel Hill, NC
I bought one of her cookbooks and I can tell yall even in her recipes there's not a lot of seasoning...
Just got back and it was the same. Way, way, WAY OVERPRICED! Still NO seasoning. Food average or below average at best. Service was unwelcoming. Only one of 3 employees who we dealt with even said a word to us. Waiter was pissy like we were bothering him.

A single breast costs $7 lol
they taxin... the way he bites into food
Why are you taking ridiculous 5 bite combos? Hard to watch that lol
Damn you take the biggest bite ever
Don’t eat like that no more dog
I went there in the early 2009/2010 it was nasty then.
Damn❤️💐
I sounds like uncaring greed took over this establishment?? Smh
20 bucks for that amount of food is a rip off.
Bro love the videos but you and these closed eyed bites are way too much. Just bite the food and move on. WAAAAAYYYYYY TOOOOO MUUUUUCH
Mama Dips is NOT in Durham! PLEASE change the title on the thumbnail.
Lol! OMG! Can’t do it!
You better than me! If I eat at a restaurant and the food is trash, I'm never going back again.

#no sazon,salt nor nada...😮
That shyt look like hospital food
You know, you said this is nasty, but the way you beat that chicken in that pork chop. I can't tell I'm just saying.
Its a shame you didnt bring up the history behind this restaurant
😔😔😔😔 I'm Hurt ... Wow 😳
😂😂😂😂🍟
Cabby Patty Fry's taste better 😂😂😂
Thank you I almost went there
Sounds like nana Morrison
The food is ok, the service is terrible.
Prices to high for garbage
After mama dip died, they should’ve just closed the doors 😮
Why does he eat like a savage?
Mama Dip's been dead . I've got her cookbook ❤ they doing her name wrong .
What😳😳 s17.00 for that
Man, I have been saying this for a while. OVERRATED! And I know the lady you speak of. She's Mama Dip's daughter. Mean as hell...
It was overrated. I was disappointed
The cook probably have some underlying illness where they change how they cook so they can get healthy I seen that on a show before
Mama dips always sucked... Will never go back
That's a black business ? 🤔🤔
🤮
Salt and pepper. Ain't hard. Owners have given up. And dont give my man limp fries.
About you're white people comment, I stopped going there because they gave Louise service and what? I'm a white local....
I'm sure it was better when MAMA DIP was alive
