    As always, it was a delicious meal. Got crawfish, and they were, for the most part, a good size. Although it's not crawfish season, I was happy with them. The flavor was on point for the crawfish, corn, potatoes, and sausage. Service was quick and super friendly. They know they are good, yet they still care about their service and hospitality. I will keep coming back every time I visit Jackson. This place is also a BYOB kind of place.

    My first time at a boil let alone eating crawfish and it was an experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Finding this place was easy yet difficult. The GPS will take you to some museum so be sure to turn into the right area. You just walk up to the window and order. Paper towels at your table. They give you containers and tubs with your food and an empty tub for your shells. I loved it. Very filling and no frills. Tasted great!

    So if you are looking for someplace fancy this ain't it. Now if you looking for some good eatin' without the high overhead...THIS IS IT!!! I'm from Indiana...so crawfish boils are rare. This place was such a treat. Biggest regret...we forgot our beer...'cause a cold beer to wash down this good food would've been perfect. So from the outside it looks like a shack...an extended shack...but its actually a really cool, clean spot. There are two lines...one for carry out and then one for those looking to eat at the location. Most of the seating is outside...but there is a small room for indoor seating. Decor is very southern with sports and various music albums. The menu is simple with shrimp, crawfish, crab legs, several combination plate offers, and tamales (which has to be purchased by half dozen). My table ordered the pound of shrimp, half pound of shrimp and the crawfish. All of us were satisfied. The corn that we ordered (it doesn't come with corn or sausage and must be ordered seperately) was amazing and went well with our food. The seasoning was on point. This is definitely a worthwhile spot to visit while in Jackson.

    Tried Crawdad Hole for the first time today. I really wanted to sit in (or out rather) and eat but nobody was really up for crawfish so I enjoyed it from the comfort of my home. I read other reviews about how it's a literal "hole" in the wall & when I pulled up, it surely is. It's more of a shack with outside seating and apparently some indoor seating (I didn't go in) but I could see a single group of people sitting out on a picnic table enjoying their food. Ordering was easy. There's a white board right when you get to the window with their menu items and prices. I got the crawfish by the pound, of course, and the 'Krabby Plate' and also 1/2 dozen tamales for my mom. The Krabby Plate comes with what looks like a half cluster of crab legs, corn, 2 potatoes & sausage. It looked like a kids meal. The crab legs weren't that good (very basic) & the corn was awful--it tasted like it was spoiled if corn can spoil. However, the only reason I'm rating it 4 stars is because the crawfish was AMAZING! I guess that's truly what they're known more for. Spice level did not disappoint, seasoned to perfection, & a pretty decent size. It was so good I ate it in one sitting, which I never really do because to me, it gets old fast lol. But each bite brought new flavor; I would go again for the crawfish! (Oh & the tamales were good too per my mother )

    If there is better seasoned seafood I have never had it. The crawfish and crab were so good that I immediately planned my return trip for the next day. If it weren't for them being closed on Monday I would probably be there tomorrow. The sausage, corn and potatoes are so good. You don't need butter, cocktail sauce, just napkins.

We were greeted shortly by our waiter Caden. Our waiter was extremely polite and very attentive. I can only speak in the items I personally tried the watermelon jalapeño margarita was a 7.5/10. There wasn't a strong watermelon flavor and there really wasn't a kick from the jalapeño. The bartender wasn't definitely not shy with the liquor but it wasn't over powering. The shrimp and crab ceviche was probably a 8/10 ( could've been a 9/10 but it had cucumbers in it). It had a tad bit too much lime juice or lime taste. The shrimp and crab dip was delicious! 9/10. Fresh chips as well. I really enjoyed the pickled red onion addition was really good. Overall Saltine has a great menu selection, warm and welcoming vibe.

That was delicious. Also got the lobster and crawfish dip ok and one can never go wrong with calamari which was also good. For dinner, I had the salmon and grits and kale. It was ok because not quite what I was expecting - I was expecting spicy and it was too sweet for me but might be my fault for not fully reading the description and being focused on the Cajun seared aspect of it. It was still good though. Nothing superb but filling and loved the crunchy kale on top. Really liked that they were open on a Monday and they were fast. At one point, too fast because one of my co- diner's dinner came too soon while still eating their salad. For dessert, we got the cinnamon roll cheesecake and shared it. I only had one bite because it was too rich for me but it was very tasty and good. Unfortunately, we didn't get the oysters which is THE item to get here but it was otherwise a good visit.

I called in my order of two bowls of steamed white rice, a half a pound of sausage, and 3 corn on the Cobb. The corn on the Cobb is currently advertised at $3.00 on the website. However the agent informed me that the price has changed and it was now $3.50 and she said this was an incredible amount of anger and attitude. I informed her that the restaurant was suppose to sell at the advertised price but that I would speak to someone about it later and as soon as I said that it sounded like she slammed down the phone. I heard nothing. I ended up calling back and she answered and before I could say anything she said someone else 'would deal with me'. When the other woman came to the phone I started to give my order and I mentioned the advertised price showed $3.00 and she cut me off and said 'no one would be honoring the price on the website'. As I was speaking to her the other female was in the background yelling and insulting me. I could hear her very well. I mentioned to the woman that I could hear her and she cut me off again and told me in so many words she 'didnt have time to address that and for me to continue with the order". I finished my order and she said one of the part owners was inside the restaurant but that the owners 'never spoke with customers' and "he's not going to discount anything for you'. WOW... Talk about being incredibly rude. I like the food here but the way they handled the price being different on the website was just to ignore it and go off on the customer who brought it to their attention.

Summer, the waitress/bartender was so attentive but more importantly very skilled at making an exceptional old fashion. Every sip was a reminder of southern comfort.

Consider this a buttery Bayou banger. Don't be shy, squeeze that lemon and dip that bread and leave nothing behind. The south west chicken salad is not to be slept on! I had a pretty big lunch so I wanted something light, but still packed a flavor punch. Boy was I knocked off my feet! The heirloom tomatoes, fresh avocado and homemade chipotle ranch took me from Louisiana to Mexico quicker than any plane could. I could not wait to share what was shared with me! I took my walk back down the street feeling gleeful and ready to brag. I received this recommendation from a local Mississippian and I couldn't be more happy with my decision. In fact, initially I felt bad about hitching a ride with my colleagues and later ditching them (they went to another spot up the street) until I was given every reason to be proud of stepping foot in The Manship.
