pepperoni pizza
Amira J.

it really gets me hype when the simplest dishes are cooked to perfection--like this pizza was so simplistically good. you could taste the freshness of the ingredients and the authenticity of the crust and sauce. i was glad i spent my Saturday appreciating this pizza. i would definitely recommend this place for those that want to experience something more than just a fast food pizza. ALSO: random but, their chocolate chip cookies???????? 2 die 4

MJG Pizza
Mia M.

Let me tell y'all about BASILS. This was definitely one of my top 5 Jackson Places to eat! It's located right next to Roosters. The quality of the pizza there was just what I needed the day I came. It's a little bit pricy but not too expensive and it's definitely worth every dollar. You end up getting a lot for what you paid for. I had the MJG pizza and let me tell you eating it was worth every dollar. The cheese and sauce blend was nice and there was definitely enough pizza for me to have some for dinner later on too. The Caesar salad was nice and full too (as you can see). They also give you a piece of bread with this AMAZING sauce to accompany it (which I used it with my pizza too and it was heavenly). Another highlight that I must mention were the COOKIES. They were an impulsive buy but easily one of the best impulsive buys I ever made haha. The cookies were moist and I think made from scratch. Basically everything that touched my mouth that came from here was good haha. I would definitely 10/10 recommend.

Panini (Veggie)
Tammy F.

I ordered the veggie panini and paid extra to add roasted red bell peppers. There is 1/8th on one on my panini. I've been gone 3years and couldn't wait to eat here again. Quality today was not good. Super disappointed..

Best. Pizza. In. This. Ciiiiity. Yooooooooo !!!! This place is such a hit ! Came here as a last minute choice on a Monday evening when I saw Sal & Mookies was closed. The guy who was working the counter/phone today (4/16/18) had the best customer service and was super polite. My pizza was so delicious. I saw the yelp hours saying they closed at 2:30 but I decided to call them anyways -- THEY WERE OPEN !!!! Yaaaaassss !!! The pizza was perfect sized and very satisfying. They have many different options to pick from as well. Will definitely be coming back here to dine the next time I am in the city and looking for a satisfying meal.

Premium Pepperoni Pizza
Sharon S.

Basil's has never disappointed! The food is made with fresh ingredients and made-to-order! I have my favorites, so I haven't had the opportunity to "stray" and try new things. The #3 (Turkey Mozzarella) is ADDICTIVE...this panini is heaven sent, Chile!!!!! I typically pair it I'm with the side salad - the feta cheese and green olives gives this salad a kick that makes it a step above your typical side salad! The stuffed eggs are okay. I tend to buy them because I love stuffed eggs, but I'm not "head over heels" about these. Also, the "premium pepperoni pizza" is delicious. I tried it when they first added it to the menu and I've intended to get it again, but the #3 just hasn't let me yet. Lol

State street pizza
Sara C.

Great pizza! I'm the type that likes my pizza slices cut weird so this definitely caters to that. They have a big variety of different types of pizza. I believe I had the State Street and my sister ordered the Rocky which is like a Philly cheesesteak. And get this... they come with ranch. :-)

It is what pizza should taste like. Generous toppings and lovely pizza every time I order. The crew is Awesome
Mitch C. D.

Love the crew!!! You will not regret ordering pizza. It is what pizza should taste like. Generous toppings and lovely pizza every time I order. They open M-S until 8:00pm

Came upon this restaurant while visiting family in a nearby hospital. I've had pizza from here, two days in a row! Some of the very best pizza, I've ever had!! Super-friendly staff !!! AAAAA+

Beth G.

Mmm. Great salads. So fresh. I enjoy the spinach salad. It's got chicken, bacon, cheese, and grapes on it. A light lemon vinaigrette is used on it. It's very delicious for a light dressing. I've tried the sandwiches here too and the bread is a yummy fociatta. Service is quick. Staff are friendly. There is limited seating outside. Parking is not great. It's in the "mall" of Fondren.

See all

I have never eaten at a Schlotzsky's, but decided to try it after a friend highly recommended it. I…read morelove a good salad, but the one I had here was not enjoyable. I got the strawberry chicken salad, which is usually one of my favorites. This one was by far one of the worst I've ever had. To start, the little bit of chicken that was on there seemed like the leftovers from what they had after they made sandwiches. It was very lacking in flavor. The balsamic vinaigrette (which I usually love) was very bitter and had the worst flavor. They really need to change that recipe! The pecans were supposed to be "candied", which really elevates the flavors of a strawberry salad. There were very few, and they were not candied, but just regular salted tiny pieces. Overall the combination of all the flavors just didn't work, and made for a boring tastebud experience. IF I ever go back I'll try something else. As far as the service, that was disappointing too. The young lady at the register was very nice, but everyone else could really use some customer service training. After eating, I went back to the counter to get a to-go box. I stood there for 3-4 minutes, and had numerous employees walk right past me and not even make eye contact. Even the manager that was in the kitchen making food looked over at me and said nothing. I was trying to wait patiently, but after a few minutes, I finally flagged someone down to get the to-go box. It doesn't seem like they care much about the customer experience, and that usually makes up for lackluster food.

Best freaking sandwich you've ever had! My favorite is the Fiesta Chicken. But seriously no other…read moresandwich compares to Schlotzsky's! Service is always on point too!

There wasn't much chicken and there were no croutons. Luckily my husband had the Cobb and gave me some of his. My salad was just OK. Lots of lettuce and a large container of dressing on the side. My husband's Cobb was good though. It was a very generous portion too. I had been to Broma's before and had the Reuben, which was amazing. so I'm going to go with 4 stars today based on my current AND past visits. This is a spot for stick to your ribs comfort food. If you're looking for healthy it may not be your best bet.

Waited and waited and watched other customers complain and finally a waitress asked at 6:20 if she could do anything for me. I said, I haven't received my food. Strange thing, she immediately asked if I wished a refund, she knew that the food wasn't coming. I told her yes and asked for the Manager, which she never showed. The young waitress apologized and said they had burned some things "again" on the grill. "Again". Waitress brought me my cash and I told her to keep it, heck she was the only one that was doing a good job. Never dine at this place, should just close it down.

Saw a sign for a deli spot. That wasn't the normal subway or jimmy johns that we have back from…read morewhere we are from. The place was bigger than I thought. Some odd reason, the place comes up on my swarm app as a food truck. It's not, but it's an actual sit down restaurant with outdoor and indoor seatings. They have a salad bar as well. I loved the tea area you had black current and sweet with real cane sugar. I did their mix n match. Which entails a half sandwich, fruit, soup, chips or salad. I chose the Carmella sandwich which was good. Very pack full with meat. I was shocked I didn't taste the Spicey picadillo sauce. I guess it was because it also had mayo. I paired this with half a tomato bisque soup, was good and a bowl of fruit. ( strawberry, pineapple, and grapes) with a dipping sauce. My husband had the full Sicilian sandwich with chips. He said it was good. Prices are a little steep but it beat having something we have back home. Staff was friendly and helpful. I am not sure what apps they use in the ladies room, but it smelled good. My only takeaway was their music that was playing. Not everyone has a knack for Christian music, but maybe if they played a soft rock alternative mix and not just the one station. It's nice to have a blend.

We ate at Jason's for lunch on Thursday, March 5th…read more Service was slow and it was not crowded. It was a little before 11am. Ambiance was lacking. The employees seemed angry about something. The food was mediocre. This is NOT the same Jason's that was in North Jackson several years ago. So disappointed. Won't be going back.
