Mattie's At Jumbos

Mattie’s At Jumbo’s is located at the northeasternmost corner of Liberty City, and it has undergone some changes in the last decade. Previously known as “Jumbo’s,” this restaurant has a history as one of the first restaurants in the city to desegregate in the ’60s. It’s remained a neighborhood staple since, where folks come to enjoy Southern dishes like fried chicken, shrimp, pigeon pea rice, macaroni, and collard greens. Portions are big, so there’s a good chance you’ll have some leftovers to take with you when you leave.
