Mat's Cafe Catering - Jackson

The Cuban sandwich was fantastic. The combination of pulled pork and ham, along with their seasonings and pickles, was spot on. I will definitely be returning!

I'm giving this restaurant 4 stars because the food was quite good. Overall, the experience felt like they were a bit new and still getting the hang of things. It's a nice spot for lunch, and I hope they iron out the kinks and become a staple in the area.

As a self-proclaimed pulled pork aficionado, I can confidently say that Mat's is among the best BBQ spots I've ever encountered. Whenever I spot pulled pork on the menu, I can't resist ordering it, no matter where I am, even when I'm traveling out of state. Mat's truly serves some of the best BBQ I've had, rivaling even the offerings from down south. Additionally, I really appreciate the café's atmosphere; it provides a wonderfully relaxing setting for a lovely lunch. The sides are fantastic as well — absolutely delicious!

Of course there are healthier options too. His salads are huge, green, and topped with dried cherries, blue cheese, and your choice of dressing.Hands down so good! Ordered turkey, bbq pulled pork, beans and Au gratin potatoes. Turkey was nice and moist. I don't eat pork but the guest loved the Pulled pork and said it was flavorful. The beans were gone in an hour.

It's right downtown Jackson, and I never knew it was here! When you walk in, it is clear, that it is set up much like a deli. You are served quickly, so it is a great option for lunch, and probably even smarter to take some home for dinner. They have everything that you could want, sandwiches, paninis, salads, stuffed baked potatoes, and so many sides to choose from, like coleslaw, macaroni and cheese, and corn bread. Even the pickles are great! The pulled pork, corned beef and pastrami were excellent, actually the best we have ever had!. So was the mac and cheese! The portions are giant sized. You will not go home hungry! Everyone that ate lunch seemed to clean their plates, there was not a complaint by anyone! Instead of driving to Ann Arbor, you have got to get in here, and give it a try. They have limited hours, so you really have to make an effort to get in. Monday thru Thursday 11am to 3pm Friday 11 to 8. I recommend that you come as early as you can before they run out of anything!
