Restaurant: Impossible · S10 E1
Mama E's Wings & Waffles
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Still open. It kept its doors open after the show.
The short answer
Soul-food restaurant with recent Facebook activity and active TripAdvisor ranking.
What happened on the show
Already a known quantity from an earlier 2009 turn on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Mama E's Wings & Waffles in Oklahoma City brought some name recognition to its tenth season visit. Irvine gave Mama E's the show's standard two day treatment on the network's small renovation fund, working to steady a beloved soul food spot. The Wikipedia record preserves no synopsis for this particular episode, so the on air specifics of Irvine's visit are not reconstructed on this page. The current signs favor survival: the restaurant's Facebook stayed active into early 2024, and it held a respectable TripAdvisor ranking among more than a thousand local eateries. Mama E's looks to be running, a soul food kitchen with enough of a following to carry its televised reset forward past the episode.
After the cameras left
Mama E's Wings & Waffles looks to be open. Its Facebook presence was active into early 2024, and a TripAdvisor listing ranked it within the top few hundred of more than twelve hundred Oklahoma City restaurants, both consistent with a running business, so we rate this a medium call, and we note the address appears with conflicting ZIP codes across sources. the best read is that the soul-food spot still trades on Springlake Drive, its long-running reputation intact, but a stronger call awaits a better source.
Location
