Crossroads Seafood is the very definition of a hole-in-the-wall place. Crossroads Seafood is a few miles away from the downtown Hernando, Mississippi area and is a decent enough spot. The service was friendly enough and it does have outdoor seating, which was nice on a Tuesday afternoon in September. read more

Crossroads Seafood - Seafood Near Me - Hernando, Mississippi

The new name is the Blind Alley, Creole restaurant The shrimp and grits were not the taste. I was looking for as for his Creole original creole. It wast bad it just wasn't what I expected. Good selection of craft beer. Road bar atmosphere. It was OK, but it wasn't what I was looking for the atmosphere was very lively. I went on a Sunday. Shrimp was good though They was party for St. Patrick's Day very lively Had a live band they were very packed and very busy. The atmosphere was very lively and friendly so I just ordered a to go plate and they had my order ready in under 10 minutes and I was on my way, but I'll be back to try some of the other entrées that they have as well. Very friendly staff. read more

Now called Blind Alley Bayou. Food I ordered the blackened catfish,crawfish mashed potatoes with a side salad and two hush puppies.fish way too salty,hush puppies could be frozen. Meh. Mashed potatoes okay. The side salad was the best part of the meal. Ambiance is just bar and grill local vibe Service was good. I would actually probably give it a 21/2 for what I had. Plenty of other things to try that might be better. They also have live music sometimes not sure about that I was leaving before they started. read more

Good food, nice band, great service! Even though we sat outside, we could still hear the band. Not many family friendly restaurants have a band play on week nights now a days. We enjoyed the food. The sausage and cheese platter was good, but nothing to brag about. My son and I each had the shrimp trio. The rice was a little mushy and my son didn't like the after taste it had. My husband got the Billy Boy. He personally thought the oysters in it were a bit much, but said it tasted good. Our server was very friendly and attentive. All in all, we definitely will be back. read more

Crossroads Seafood - Shrimp Trio - Seafood Near Me - Hernando, Mississippi

NEVER in my life have I ever been one to complain about food or the service, being as I spent several years in the industry myself. Today was the worst experience by far. Blind Alley Bayou LLC Formally Crossroads Seafood LLC Hernando, between the crawfish having NO flavor and the server rolling her eyes at us when we asked for napkins. When we informed the "boss" about the issue, and I asked to switch to something else, she said "no, you can order something else through your server." When I informed her that the server had hardly been over and she asked who it was, "well that's my daughter." Well I can tell that's your daughter by the fact that you both have ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS. Since the new owners have taken over, it has gone to absolute read more

Good food and service and excellent for the money. A bit off the beaten path but was not disappointed.

This is my 3rd time here and I brought a friend to eat for the first time. It was such a breath of fresh air to get good service. The atmosphere was good and casual and they have outdoor seating. It was so hot that we sat inside. Our waitress was excellent as was the service she gave us. The food was fresh, good and hot. We both got the catfish po-boy and fries -his Cajun mine fried. Both did not disappoint. Sweet tea was perfectly made-not too sweet. He would definitely love to eat here again. read more

This was my husband and my first time here. First and foremost it's off of hwy 51 and if you're not careful you will pass it. When we first arrive we didn't have to wait long. I ordered gumbo and my husband ordered the fish platter. My only complaint is that my gumbo was not hot enough. If you're looking for a good drink there is a full bar! I will give them another try! read more

loved my experience. The ambiance is good, the food and beverage options are unique and delicious, and the staff is professional and pays attention to their customers. read more

Second time ever trying this place. Crawfish tails were very chewy and over cooked. Fried shrimp was over cooked, chewy . Catfish was overcooked. Mac and cheese subpar. Beers were hot. I understand the heat yesterday was horrible, but at least make sure your restaurant is comfortable air wise. Second chance, will never return. read more

The food is great, and it has a fun atmosphere! The Staff is wonderful, too. Can't wait for patio weather.

Its in the middle of the pandemic and my Uncle passes. So, after a very different n difficult wake I drive my parents to this place. We live in Memphis and was told this was the place in Hernando for good catfish. My dad and I both have severe arthritis. I walk with a cane and my dad uses his electric wheelchair, so we sent mom in to get the info. My mother was visibly upset when she returned to the car. 1st of all, no employee spoke or attempted to recognize her as a customer. 2nd another customer gave mom a menu. 3rd, she came back to the car with the menu and we decided to order after these unfriendly encounters. So, she goes back in. Waits for about 15mins and a waitress/server finally decides to ask if she needed to place an order. As my mom tells her our orders, the lady says, oh we dont have any catfish. Oh we dont have any shrimp. We got mudbugs. Moms, is like excuse me. The ladys says, we only have crawfish. 1st of all its 2020! The disrespect and racism shouldn't be thriving so well, but it is. No worries, I will never pull up again. read more

Crossroads Seafood - the front of the restaurant - Seafood Near Me - Hernando, Mississippi

The food in my opinion is authentic cajun. We loved the quality and presentation. The service was excellent. It was a very laid back atmosphere and we had a great time. I had the Catfish filet dinner. Three big corn meal breaded filets, hush puppies and two sides( crawfish mash potatoes, a plentiful side salad. I believe it was only $15.95. I finished the meal off with a homemade banana pudding to go. I'll be back to this resturant when we come back to the Nesbit MS area. read more

My bf and I have lived in the area for a little over a year. We've been wanting to try this place for the longest time and we finally did! We were looking forward to some "Louisiana style food" since we are both originally from Louisiana. As an appetizer we order the boudin balls. You can tell they were frozen before. They weren't balls, they were more like tube shaped. They weren't the best and they weren't absolutely horrible, they were just ok. I wouldn't order them again. So, here comes our food. The jambalaya was spicy and I mean SPICY!!! We both were chugging our water! I had only one bite. The etouffee was gross!!! There was no crawfish nor any chicken, it was straight sauce! Not good at all. The waitress, sat at the bar majority of the time EATING a burger!!! When she brought out our appetizers we asked for plates. Before going to get our plates, she made sure she took a bite of her burger first! When she came to ask if everything was ok and we told her we weren't impressed with our food she stood there, right in front of us and yelled toward the owner saying "you need to come talk to these people!" Very rude and disrespectful!!!! The owner was very nice and apologized. Told us he had been out of town and someone didn't follow his recipe. We were told to come back. We decided before we left, we will wait a month and try it again. Also, before we left we were given a to go bowl of some shrimp and corn chowder...that looks just like the etoufee I had! read more

I tell you we have drove by this place several times and we finally despised to stop. What a disappointment. First of all the service was terrible. The food has great flavor however the restaurant failed to execute the delivery. The crawfish mash potatoes were served cold. My wife's Shrimp was barely warm and the catfish was piping hot. Fix the service issues and this place would by 4 starts maybe better read more

Everything was wonderful. My sis, my mom and I all had the catfish basket. Even hush puppies were wonderful.

Delicious for North Mississippi! Try the crawfish, crawfish, crawfish! Fried tomatoes, boiled shrimp, red beans and rice and catfish are all solid choices. Give Billy some business and enjoy some music! read more

The first time we ate here, I thought a majority of the food was pretty good despite one or two bad items. I wanted to come back. The second time, my family sat there for 30 minutes without having any wait staff come to our table...yet they would go to people that came in after us. We decided to leave. After some period of time from my disappointment of my last experience I decided to try takeout. I didn't feel welcome here by the staff. My food took twice as long as I was told on the phone. The gal at the bar didn't say one word to me when she handed me my food or the bill. No friendly demeanor. I felt like I was an inconvenience. This place seems like it wants to be more of a dive bar with live music than a restaurant. Not my cup of tea. Won't be back. read more

Some good some not so good. Skip the Boudin balls, they are not good. On the other hand the shrimp and grits was very good albeit a little small. read more

Our new go to for authentic Cajun seafood. The etouffee crawfish is the best I've had. Very good gumbo. People are really nice. Relaxing place. The live music is fun too! read more

Food was good, had 3 pc catfish dinner which was served hot and crispy. Service started a little slow, but once our waitress got to me, service was excellent the remainder of the meal. My only disappoint was that after asking for a carry out I walked right out the door leaving it on the table! Very casual beach bar vibe. will be going again. read more

Went here on a Sunday night and it was packed. We lucked up and walked in as a big table was leaving, so we didn't even have to wait. We ordered steak, crawfish, and gator bites. Everything was great! The steak was fantastic. Cooked exactly as I asked. The crawfish and gator was great as well. The only fault with the food that I had was probably that the macaroni wasn't that hot. It was just ok tasting too but I only got it for my daughter so it wasn't that big of deal for me. Now the service had pros and cons. Pro: we got our food very quickly. The server even brought our crawfish extra fast because she said they were about to run out and she wanted to make sure we had ours. And sure enough 15 minutes later I hear a waiter say that they have just run out of crawfish. We got all of our food, even my steak, pretty quickly. Con: At the end of our meal, we didnt see our server too much, but they were pretty busy. My only issue was waiting 15 plus minutes for the check. She said she would get the check, but seemed to disappear and then I spotted her bringing a few plates to some other tables before we finally got it a good bit of time later. I wasn't in any hurry so I wasn't too fussed about it, but I could certainly see how some could get a bit mad if they were ready to leave and had to wait. Overall it was real good. Great food. Service was good but could be a little bit better. Would certainly go again. read more

A hole in the wall. Heard the food was good, but from what I ate, it was a lie. Now, the house salad was good and a good size, too. The grilled oysters were an abomination. So overdone and stuck fast to the shell. The okra was hard as a rock. The redfish was grilled, but it was also dry as a bone and way over cooked. The fried catfish was good. Gumbo decent as was the fried shrimp. Our bill was $60. It definitely was not worth it, unfortunately. The wait staff were excellent! read more

This is a small gem in Hernando, MS! We were doing a site visit at The Gin at Nesbit on Halloween and wanted to grab a bite to eat before heading back to Memphis. The weather was absolutely gorgeous so we were able to sit outside. They were preparing for a trunk or treat for the community kids, which was very sweet! Everything on the menu looked delicious. We started with the crawfish dip and chips. They were homemade and very yummy! I ordered the shrimp po-boy and Chris had the catfish & shrimp basket. The fish was fried hard just like he likes it. The onion rings were on point too. We could tell they were fresh and battered. We were too full to consider dessert, although the sound of the strawberry cake made both our mouths water. To top off the great meal, we also had a very sweet waitress and fun atmosphere was a plus. We'll definitely come back even if it's just a quick date dinner night! read more

Crossroads Seafood - a drink in a plastic cup with a straw - Seafood Near Me - Hernando, Mississippi

(Edit- I wrote the 2-star review below while my wife was at Crossroads waiting over an hour for a to-go order we couldn't call in because their phone doesn't work half the time. The order was wrong and she had to wait. Then she gets home and it turns out one of the gumbo cups was coleslaw. Awesome. And my crawfish mashed potatoes, which are usually good, were inedible. We are done with this place. It is not even close to worth the high price.) I'll start by saying that I really like the food. Consistency isn't perfect, but the taste and quality are very good. The problem is the poor service, complete disorganization and horrible setup. The restaurant is too small for the number of people they try to serve. The wait times are terrible. To-go orders are incredibly slow and often wrong. We keep giving this place chances and they keep underwhelming. The food just isn't worth the trouble. read more

We have eaten here twice and I love the food. I had redfish the first time and was grilled (moist and yummy). The gator bites, house chips and fried pickles were table pleasers. My husband loves their red-beans and rice, it's not offered in a cup/small bowl as a side but we asked if he could choose a cup for one of his sides with his shrimp and grits and they did without hesitation! Love that! I had the fried catfish (picked spicy) my 2nd time there and the fillets are fried crisp and perfect. I asked for their remoulade as a dipping sauce for the fish and it was awesome! (They should offer it drizzled over the fish)! We will be back again and again as long as service is always good and accommodating. Also, just a FYI they have bands outside on the "patio" with outdoor seating. read more

Best boil shrimp in town with a little kick to it. We had stop there a few times before. Great place for some good Cajun food. Thanks Billy

Not so good. The first complaint was from my daughter that the water tastes like shrimp. Told her she was crazy, until I tasted a funky fishy taste in the baked potato side dish. Service was fine. The place is always busy, so it's probably me. read more

The food was absolutely amazing. We had the crawfish tails as an appetizer. They were okay but also my first time trying them. I think they were just small and hard to taste but i can't imagine how else to fry crawfish tails so this is not a hit at the restaurant. The catfish was amazing. It literally melted in your mouth. The shrimp was huge!! The Billies sauce that is homemade in house was so delicious!! Our server Janie was amazing and she took very well care of us! read more

Every time we have driven by this place we have said that we should stop and we never had until today. It won't be the last time we stop! It was a Sunday at 11am so it wasn't busy at all. The inside was so cool, lots of wood, very clean. We had the gator bites, fried green tomatoes, and a pound of peel and eat shrimp. It was so good. Strange thing I know but the bathrooms were very cool. Had barn door with latch and copper sinks. The whole place was very clean. Nice wait staff. But the good was the hit! Highly recommend!! read more

Stopped by for a late anniversary dinner. It was so good!! Very sweet waitress and fun atmosphere was a plus.

This place really needs to get their air conditioning problems worked out. Both times I've come here, their A/C was out. The first time was last year, and we decided to stay and eat, the food is average at best, and the service wasn't great. They were spraying the roof with water to try and cool it down inside because it was miserably hot. Then, about 2 weeks ago we called and made reservations for 9 people that afternoon. They accepted and told us our reservation could be fulfilled for 7:15pm. We get there and the A/C is out, our tables haven't been set up yet, and didn't get much communication from any of the staff. Why wouldn't they notify customers of the A/C outage before they take the reservation? We left and decided to eat elsewhere. read more

So incredibly good!!! Like - extremely extremely delicious! We went yesterday on a whim - I had never been but my husband has been a few times on duty (Sheriff's Department). Good Lord... so good. I had raw oysters as an appetizer (fresh and excellent!) and he had the crawfish dip with house-made chips (fantastic!!). I had the shrimp and grits (NO PORK - yay!!!!) and he had the fried catfish (best I've ever had anywhere) and the boiled shrimp (perfectly boiled and amazing flavor). The hush puppies are very very good (peppers and a little heat, fried perfectly) and I dipped them in the house-made ranch dressing (delicious!). The service was GREAT and we will be back often. My husband also says the po' boys are excellent, so I may order that next time, but I also need to try the crab legs so I guess I'll just have to go several more times and update! read more

Very happy to see this place. The food is very good, just like the little mom and pop places around Bay St. Louis. The food was on spot, and the service was very nice and prompt. I had the oyster po boy, and was not disappointed. I can see this being a regular spot of mine. read more

Typical "North Mississippi" version of seafood. It's not bad for the area, but could not exist on the coast. It's not bad, just need to tweak a few thinks. The Oyster Po-boy is on a soft bun and not a hard one. As you know then the tomatoes will reduce the bread to a soggy mess before finishing. No mayo on the po-boy either, just a sauce of their creation. The oysters were very good. My biggest complaint of the evening was some blowhard in a Harley Davidson T-shirt at the bar dropping the "F bomb" into everything he had to say ( and he had a lot to say and said it loud) there were kids in the small dining area and the rest of us diners just kept looking at each other waiting for the staff to do something,... but they grinned and laughed along with him. It was totally trash behavior. read more

Love this place! This was our 2nd trip and both times the food has been great! The fried oysters are my favorite! The catfish and peel n eat shrimp is delicious. My daughter got the crawfish pasta on our first trip and they put a lot of crawfish in the pasta. Service was great! read more

Pretty darn good food. Great catfish, excellent service. Good prices. Try the gator nuggets. Really tasty. read more

I was skeptical based on some of the reviews. We were passing through and looking for seafood along the way. This is a few minutes off the highway, but well worth it. We had fried and chargrilled oysters to start and, while both were good. the fried were our favorites. I had the shrimp and fish. My husband had the catfish. He liked it so much that he kept eating mine, as well. The hot peel and eat shrimp were amazing!!!!!! They had some fire to em, so be ready for that. We would make this place one of our regular spots if we lived nearby. Service was great and friendly! read more

I decided to try a bunch of stuff. Cup of red beans n rice, gumbo and crawfish etoufee were great. Waitress added some bread sticks. Sampler had pickles, boudin balls, wings and fried mushrooms. I skipped the pickles in favor of more mushrooms which they did gladly. Wings came naked and very crispy which I loved. Dipped them in Billy's sauce. Also had honey mustard and ranch. I'll be back to try more. read more
