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!

Steak cora

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.

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.

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

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.

Eggs Walter

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!

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.

Bar food menu 4/4/19

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.

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.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience at Shaggy's in Biloxi. They were running great drink…read morespecials--beers for $2 and select specialty cocktails at half‑price. I ordered the Rum Punch for $4.50, and my husband grabbed a cold beer for just $2, which made the evening feel fun right from the start. For dinner, I ordered the Redfish Elote, and it was absolutely incredible. The blackened redfish was perfectly seasoned and served with zucchini, squash, and amazing potatoes, all covered in a rich Cajun cream sauce. It was topped with tender shrimp, and every bite was out of this world. My husband went with a fully loaded cheeseburger piled high with all the toppings--classic, hearty, and exactly what he wanted. The whole vibe was exciting and tropical. Sitting outside with my Rum Punch, looking out over the Gulf with the sun shining, I felt like I was right back in the islands. Both our waitress and the hostess were fantastic--fun, vibrant, full of jokes, and genuinely welcoming. They made the experience even better. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. I highly recommend Shaggy's in Biloxi for great food, great drinks, and great energy.

We started with the crab claws, which were alright. You definitely get a lot, but I've had meatier…read moreones with better breading. I also got a Bushwacker with two shots of banana vodka because our server upsold me on it lol, which I wasn't mad about, but it definitely didn't taste like a double. For my meal, I got the Southwest salad with the $11 Gulf shrimp add-on. The salad itself was delicious, but I got 8 tiny shrimp on a large salad. If I would've known, I would've just gone with the other shrimp option for $6. My husband got the platter with fries, fried gator, catfish, shrimp and hushpuppies. Everything was good, but idk, I just thought the breading on all the fried food was pretty bland. Our server was amazing though! I really wish I could remember his name because he was great. It was also a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoy the view. Overall, the atmosphere and service were definitely better than the food. If you're looking for a tourist trap with a good view, this is a good one
