    a breakfast of eggs, toast and orange juice
    Brandee M.

    We went for a late valentines day brunch on Sunday Feb. 18th. It was amazing. They had our reservation ready upon arrival and we were sat in a booth to avoid noise coming from the lobby due to a party! Very thoughtful! Michael was our server and he was a dream! Super helpful in making sure my mimosa wasn't too juice forward! food was great brunch style food and bloody mary was top notch!

    Had the pleasure of visiting this quaint restaurant while in town and really loved the intimate vibe. Perfect for a date nite or anniversary dinner. The portion sizes were very small though and drinks a bit not too shelf. My lemon drop martini was weak but they fixed it with the cosmopolitan. The steaks were very small and appetizer were small also. The side dishes are enough for two people though.

    The food and service were wonderful. The steaks were cooked to perfection . Loved the live music in the bar.

    I came here last year just for breakfast. The decor, staff, and food are still on point. Not many people eating at 0930 but the jazz music was a plus. I am seriously in love with the decor. I had the Cora's breakfast and so did my friend. The only difference is she got wheat toast and I got the biscuit. Plenty of food. Price is good maybe a little bit more but you get a relaxing atmosphere and you definitely do not get the buffet bar craziness at the casino. Located a few blocks from the main gate of Kessler. It is easy to get in and out of the parking lot. If you get a chance check this place out.

    Princess Martini, Old Fashion, and Seafood Gumbo
    Cameron P.

    We came to Biloxi for a little weekend getaway and could not find reservations anywhere! We finally decided to give this little restaurant a try and I'm so glad we did! DRINKS: We tried quite a few. First the old fashion, like expected was strictly whisky. Could have used a bit more bitters and simple syrup, but overall a good choice. The princess martini was delicious. Super fruity, but not overwhelming. The waterlily would have been better if I didn't have the princess martini first. I would not recommend getting it after a sweeter drink. It's too refreshing to follow up. APPS: Seafood gumbo was tasty, but it was not traditional. It was a mix between the seafood and chicken. It came out very hot and I enjoyed the cornbread that came with it. The brussel sprouts were one of a kind and had a kick to them! I was super surprised by the Asian chili glaze! Would recommend. ENTREES: Both of our steak dishes were delish! The NY STRIP AND STEAK WALTER. However, I would recommend the potato patty over the mashed potatoes!

    This was honestly one of the weirdest dinners I've had in recent memory. My boyfriend and I were staying at the White House and stopped into the restaurant for an early dinner. We were ushered to a pretty large booth, which was honestly great for COVID - but super weird decor. Gave me adams family meets vampire diaries vibes. It was also freezing. Because it was freezing, I ordered a Pinot Noir vs my normal sauv blanc - so I was surprised when a white wine came back out. I repeated my order and they swapped it out, not a big deal. I did like that you can order mini glasses of wine (3oz pours) - that was neat. I could hear the waitress listing the specials in the next vampire den across from us, but the curtains were pulled so I listened in like a creep. I was interested in the cod special. When our waiter came by to take our order, I asked about the specials. He said they had none. I (surprised) said: "really? I thought I heard mention of a cod?" He said "oh yes, we do have cod mmhm - had that last night. It's delicious" to which I replied "ok, but it's not a special.. it's just not on the menu?" To which he once again mmhm'ed me. I got the cod. Food was ok, Brussels were actually pretty good. My boyfriend's red snapper (gulf catch) was a solid 7.5/10. Fries were meh. A table of 18-22 year old girls trying to get after it were seated near us. After trying hard to get served liquor under age with a parent present, the same waiter took their order. I listened in. "Tonight we have a cod special", I heard from afar between drunken giggles and chatter. I'll just leave you all with that gem of an ending. TL;DR I'd recommend ordering from the bar and taking your food out to the porch if you're staying at the hotel - that looked way nicer. Come here if you're a 21yr old girl drinking on your mom's credit card.

    Cora's Restaurant in the White House Hotel has delicious brunch options set in a luxurious atmosphere. The decor inside the restaurant is beautiful and the service is attentive. The two entree options we enjoyed, Eggs Point Cadet and Eggs Walter, were incredibly tasty and I would definitely recommend them both! However, their drinks were a little expensive and beware of unexpected upselling. After being suggested a 'bacon bloody mary' by our server, I ordered one only to find that I was charged for a bloody AND a side of bacon making this one cocktail nearly $10. If you are looking for a nice place to have a splurge meal, Cora's is a nice option. If the weather is nice, grab a table on their porch and enjoy the gorgeous view of the Gulf of Mexico!

    2 hour wait for food. Large party but booked ahead. Ran out of mashed potatoes and risotto. One waitress for 20 ppl. Left food. Did not eat. Heard good things but truly disappointed.

    Dropped by with my partner twice, and only tried the bar (no judgements, please). Once we had afternoon cocktails and the other time we had Bloody Mary's. For the afternoon, we were greeted by Steven/Stephen (not sure on that spelling) and he was personable and very knowledgeable about the spirits behind the bar. It was lovely for an afternoon pick me up. Because of that experience, we came back about a week later for Phat's Bloody Mary's. He was also a very attentive and skilled bartender. When it warms up, would definitely drop by to have a cocktail on the dais with that beautiful view. Definitely a lovely quiet bar with extensive alcohols available.

    Excellent bar and restaurant. The people make all the difference and they have an exceptional group behind the bar. Knowledgeable and friendly. Frank is one of the best but all three of the guys I've seen tending bar are all good at what they do. They recently updated the bar's food menu and I'm including a picture of that. Also if not are the weekly drink specials. Half price martini night on Tuesday. Half price glasses of wine on Wednesday. Thursdays are cheap draft (12oz I believe) pours, which they have a good selection of. Those specials run all night in addition to their happy hour drink specials that run from 4-6.

    Breakfast burrito with grits. I'd ask for salt and pepper for the grits next time. Even hot sauce would be good. Very nice to go packaging !
    Jasmine G.

    I got a breakfast burrito with grits to go. Not a huge fan of eating by myself so I love take out orders. Which allows me to see if they can do great on that side of dinning as well. The packaging was great. It wasn't all messy or thrown in the container. The burrito was full of flavor and I'd get it again. The grits however were "my kind" of consistency with not much seasoning at all. So actually to be a tad creative I opened up one half of my burrito and mixed it with the grits. It gave it flavor and was pretty delicious. Great pricing in my opinion since I only spent less than $9 and feel like I had enough to eat.

Picture this: you're kicking back right on the sandy shores of Biloxi, waves crashing, sun dipping low, and that killer sunset painting the sky in fiery oranges and pinks. That's the vibe at Shaggy's pure island escape energy with your toes practically in the sand. Those pulled pork tacos you raved about? Spot on they're the Hawaiian Pork Tacos, loaded with smoked pulled pork, honey-lime slaw, pineapple pico, and a BBQ drizzle that hits like a tropical flavor bomb. And don't get me started on the shrimp options, surf 'n' turf platters, massive menu that's impossible to conquer alone, and those waitresses who guide you through it like pros. The cocktails? Legendary spicy margaritas rimmed with Tajín, piña coladas bursting with fresh fruit garnishes, local draft beers flowing, all while you're soaking in that unbeatable beachfront view. Fun fact: Shaggy's started as a bold dream to revive the Pass Christian waterfront after Hurricane Katrina, kicking off in 2007 and exploding into multiple waterfront spots, including this Biloxi gem at 1763 Beach Blvd. It's all about that laid-back, family-friendly island vibe with fresh Gulf seafood, burgers, and drinks that scream vacation mode. And here's the real kicker Shaggy's Biloxi Beach consistently ranks among the top spots in Biloxi, snagging Travelers' Choice awards, voted best all-around restaurant in Coastal Mississippi, and holding strong in the top 5-10 on Tripadvisor with thousands of glowing reviews. It's not just good it's a must-see, must-eat destination on any Biloxi hit list. If you're chasing authentic coastal thrills, killer eats, epic sunsets, and that unbeatable "I'm on vacation forever" feeling, Shaggy's rockets straight to the top of my Biloxi adventures. Grab a spot on the patio, order those tacos, sip that spicy marg, and watch the sun melt into the Gulf pure magic, man! Who's ready to hit the beach?

She was detail-oriented, accommodating, and genuinely delightful throughout the evening. Her attentiveness made my visit feel both memorable and incredibly comfortable. I ordered two of each of the oysters they were serving, along with the duck fat fries, and both were unforgettable. The fries, in particular, were some of the best I've had in a long time--perfectly crisp and flavorful. Even the ketchup was outstanding (yes, the ketchup!)--I wish I could keep a bottle of it stocked in my own kitchen. As for drinks, I had the best cognac Negroni I've ever experienced, crafted by Dylan. It was beautifully balanced and expertly composed--truly a spectacular cocktail I won't soon forget. Impressed, I asked him to make my espresso martini as well. Once again, he delivered a perfectly balanced drink that took me by surprise and served as the ideal finale to the evening. Dylan is clearly a professional who takes pride in his craft. I can't say enough great things about this restaurant and am already looking forward to my next visit!
