Dominican Food in Jamestown, NC
La Cocina de Mama is Jamestown's own Dominican kitchen, at 1002 Gardner Hill Drive with parking right at the door. We are family owned and operated, we opened in 2024, and everything is made to order: the pernil comes out when it comes out and the sancocho takes what a sancocho takes.
Living in Jamestown used to mean driving to Charlotte or Raleigh for a real plate of Dominican food. Not anymore. We serve Dominican breakfast in the morning, from mangu with los tres golpes to french toast platters, plus lunch and dinner plates every day of the week.
This is a small town spot on purpose. Come on a domino night, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday from 7 to 10 pm, and you will see half of Jamestown around the tables. Walk-ins are welcome; for five or more people we recommend reserving.
If you are searching for Latin food in Jamestown NC, we are the answer that is actually in Jamestown: dine in every day, Monday 9 am to 7 pm, Tuesday to Saturday 9 am to 9 pm and Sunday 10 am to 7 pm, take out by phone, or delivery through Uber Eats and DoorDash.
