So, I will start by saying the food had a really nice flavor. I got the crab legs and he got…read morecrawfish, but I'm only giving two stars because the cashier flat out lied about being out of "all" shrimp when I asked for the 1/2 and 1/2. I asked if that meant even fried shrimp specifically and her reply was "yup all shrimp". Sigh, I was a little bummed but the show must gone on (UNTIL) a couple came in about 30 min after us and got shrimp tacos?!?! They were even served right next to us ‍ Not sure why they would feel the need to lie, but to each their own. Also, my potato and corn were as cold as if they came out of the fridge (husbands was not), so I guess they forgot to heat them up? It's a 50/50 if we'll be back sadly.

Overall 4 Stars If…read moreyou want a decent Po-Boy in Meridian, make a pit stop at Seafood Express. Get your gas and chips but you GOTTA' get their sandwiches! Ambiance - A locally owned gas store / deli, you can order a variety of FRIED food, both Surf or Turf, plates, family style or a la cart. The only fresh seafood they might have is Crawfish, when in seasoned. There are three or four small tables to seat and eat. I recommend as order as takeout. Service - the staff were fast and friendly. With a steady supply of locals coming through, they ready to take your order. The deli section is stocked with a lot of fried items so you can get your food quicker. However, I would recommend to get one of their PoBoy sandwiches. You won't go wrong. You may have to wait 5-10 minutes but it worth it. Food - 4 Stars Shrimp PoBoy combo w fries and drink. $13.99 I would have given it 5 stars but the fries were overcooked and too crunchy. The quality of the potato of the fries could be better too. The bread was fluffy and toasty just as it should be for a PoBoy! The amount of shrimp was overwhelming. See pictures. The sandwhich came w lettuce, onions, pickles and tomatoes. No mayo. I ordered the 8" combo meal but they have a 6" size, if you counting your calories because your cholesterol will still be high with the amount of fried food! Oh, I forgot, they have shrimp fried rice too. So get a side order! I forgot to order mine. Bummer. Enjoy

-- Good Intentions, Poor Execution…read more Let me start by saying I wanted to like Don P's. Friday lunch, only three other tables occupied, and a menu that had real potential. Unfortunately, the experience fell short from the moment we walked in until we tracked someone down just to pay and leave. ________________________________________ First Impressions No greeting. No hostess. We stood at the entrance long enough to feel awkward before walking up to the counter ourselves to ask the basics -- do we seat ourselves? Is there table service? They clearly saw us, but ignored us. Not a great start for a sit-down restaurant. ________________________________________ Atmosphere & Presentation The décor is trying to do something, but it lands closer to glitzy-cheap than charming. More noticeable: the food arrived in takeout containers with plastic utensils, and drinks came in disposable cups. At a table-service restaurant. At lunch. No aprons, no uniforms on the staff -- nothing that signals "we take this seriously." ________________________________________ The Food OG Gumbo -- 3/10 I've driven hours out of my way for great gumbo. This wasn't it. Okra, andouille, chicken, shrimp -- the ingredients were there, but the broth was thin and watery in a way I've genuinely never experienced before. It's not the worst gumbo I've ever had (chain restaurants hold that title), but it was very substandard, a real disappointment. Cajun Pasta -- 2/10 This one was rough. Overcooked pasta, bordering on paste, and salted so aggressively it tasted almost intentional -- like Cajun seasoning AND an extra round of salt was added separately. Nearly inedible, and I don't use that word lightly. ________________________________________ Service Virtually nonexistent. We were ignored for most of the meal and had to physically hunt down our server to get the check -- so we could leave and go eat somewhere else. That about sums it up. ________________________________________ Final Thoughts Don P's isn't without potential -- the concept is there, and the food came out hot and fast. But hot and fast doesn't cover watery gumbo, over-seasoned pasta, disposable everything, and a staff that seemed indifferent to our presence. With some serious attention to food quality, service standards, and basic dining room professionalism, this place could be something. Right now, it's not. Would I return? No. Would I recommend it? Not yet.

Service was friendly, but very slow. The boil was OK, but a pretty low quality of shrimp and only…read more1 potato and 1 corn in the bag along with a pound of shrimp. All the other seafood was frozen Sysco stuff. Crab cakes were the same frozen ones I get at the grocery store - but overcooked and too crisp. I had a crawfish po-boy (they call it the Breaux Boy) - the roll was browned great, the veggies were fresh... and the fried crawfish were overcooked. I honestly couldn't tell if they were crawfish or shrimp - they just tasted burned. Their custom "voodoo sauce" is overly sweet and the sandwich would have been better served by a standard remoulade or even just mayo. I may be prejudiced since we were on our way back from the coast, where we had wonderful fresh seafood. But I wouldn't be back here again.

It needs not a long review at all because this can be reviewed easily: Food: A+ Ambience: A+ Experience: A+ Service: A+ Every server was attentive and wonderfully welcoming, nice, and accommodating. I want people to know about this restaurant, so they make lots of money and stay here for a long time. I also want it to be just like it was tonight when I was there - Light crowd, easy going, relaxing. You can let your guard down in this place. And I just loved it. I went for the basics on my first try- Steak, baked potato, broccoli, salad. Let's focus on that steak - Petit Filet, 8oz, medium. Easily one of the best steaks I have ever had. Top 3. Great job.

Realistically a 3.5/5 but I'll round up. Although located adjacent/in a gas station, this place was…read morenot cheap. I will say they do give a generous amount of meat. You did not get a lot of sides though, small portion imo. They had a variety of items to choose from but we decided on the rib plate with Mac and cheese/beans and I will say the flavor of the ribs was really good. Although the ribs wasn't fall off the bone, the meat was still pretty tender. The beans and Mac and cheese were also good, but nothing to rave about. What I was disappointed in was the peach cobbler, it was so bad. Dry and gummy-and kind of expensive-I believe it was almost $4 for a small sauce sized container. I would give this place another try the next time I come around!
