Saucy Mama's

Wonderful food, wonderful people. Came here with our toddler after reading the glowing reviews, and Saucy Mama's did not disappoint! Hubby and I got the BBQ chicken and tri-tip with fried catfish for the kiddo. FFried okra, collards, mac'n'chest, cornbread waffles, were all excellent. Everything was so delicious we all fell quiet and focused on chowing down. The proprietress gave every guest a warm glowing welcome, and the young ladies behind the bar were so kind to our little one. Thank you! This is sure to become a family favorite whenever we come up to Guerneville. We were so stuffed but we had to make room for dessert, and we’re glad we did! Banana pudding and peach cobbler were stellar, made from scratch. The peach cobbler was incredible - yummy peaches spiced with nutmeg, just the r

While visiting the Armstrong Redwoods Park, we needed some good dinner food. We had driven past Saucy Mama Jook Joint and said “That’s it”! When we arrived around 6PM we were seated fairly quickly (by Saucy Mama herself - she’s great - what a smile). After looking over the menu we went for the specials appetizer (fried green heirloom tomato’s) and me - pork ribs and my wife the Yaba Daba Beef rib. The food arrived quickly and, wow, big portions!!! We were famished and dug in. The pork ribs had a nice sweet but not overpowering sauce and were fall off the bone tender. My wifes (huge) beef rib was thick, juicy and tender. Both had just a light smokiness letting the meats flavor shine. The sides? Well, the rice and beans were a hit (a little spicy but well made), the “greens” were tasty with

The owner of this place is a lovely, friendly woman with great energy who will give you the best service.. making you laugh, feeling right at home. All food is comfort style, with a slight Louisiana twist paired with local wines. Vegetarian main options are limited, can have lots of the sides but still enjoyed being here, a lot.

We visited Saucy Mama’s with a large party and were impressed with the attentive and friendly service from start to finish. The staff made sure we were well taken care of, and the owner was especially pleasant and welcoming, which added a nice personal touch to our experience. While some of the sides like the fried okra and black-eyed peas didn’t quite hit the mark for us, the meats more than made up for it. The ribs and wings were absolutely delicious — tender, flavorful, and clearly cooked with care. The music also added to the overall vibe, creating a fun and laid-back atmosphere that we really enjoyed. All in all, Saucy Mama’s is a great spot for good BBQ, warm hospitality, and a lively setting — especially with a group!

Came here for my birthday in July and it was such a lovely experience. Stumbled upon this place after spending the day in Russian river and we were lucky they managed to fit us in! The food was delicious and they made such an effort for my birthday, the whole team was so friendly & made my day very special.
