Great food - interesting atmosphere, beer cans, bumper stickers. Great burgers and fries, blue plate specials and deserts. Had a Mushroom Swiss burger, the Bacon Cheese burger and peanut butter pie. Enjoyed. Fast service. read more

A dive-y burger bar that makes me personally nostalgic for the time when I cared about how well I was doing on the pinball machine. The owner Pat has been there for as long as I can remember. They have blue plates, red beans & rice, supposedly vegetables, but all I ever get is the large Inez burger with onion rings/fries and cold beer. Cs's is a special place, and I hope it always stays that way. read more

Cs's - Inez Burger - Burgers Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Great food classic location near Milsaps hot fresh good drinks. Is there more than one location?

By far one of the best in Jackson, Margaret is the best and pat knows how to cook !!! We eat there multiple times a week . We look forward to what's on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. Highly recommend for some home cooked food! read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants and the people working there are so nice. The food is good too!

Great place! 1st time back in years. The burger is excellent, fries are great. Ambience is super cool.

If you're looking for a seriously epic lunch, head to CS's. They claim to have the best burger in town and they are for sure in my top five burgers in Jxn! Truly a JXN institution, CS's is seated on the outskirts of Midtown, on West Street right behind Milsaps campus. When you walk in, you'll immediately notice that this place has some serious character. The walls are plastered with bumper stickers, polaroids, old campaign posters, and more. There's barely a blank section in site. The restaurant is quite large, divided up into two main seating areas. There are plenty of booths as well as free-standing tables you can push together if you come with a larger group. The food is very Mississippi, which is my way of saying it is ex-cellent. If you're craving a burger, you really can't go wrong with their standard burger or any of their specialty ones. The pimiento cheese burger is a personal favorite of mine, as it comes topped with bacon and jalapeños. Um, YUM. If you're not in the mood for a burger, have no worries. They have plenty of other deeeelicious choices. I highly recommend going for their daily blue plate special. It's good, Southern home cooking and you might need a nap afterwards but you won't regret it. The servers are so friendly and the food comes out pretty quickly considering how small the establishment is! CS's a staple of the Jackson food scene and for a good reason. If you haven't been, check it out soon! read more

Cs's - Burgers Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

CS's is another great stop on my "Best Burger" tour of the Jackson area. This place was a bar when I was a kid. Located behind Milsaps College, I had truly forgotten that it was there. Seems in my 30 year absence, the place has turned into quite a lunch spot for downtown employees and Jackson food explorers. Walking in, you can't help but gawk at the hundreds of old beer cans on the shelves and countless political posters and stickers that plaster the walls at rakish angles. Left or Right, you will see them both here at CS's. Inez is the centerpiece server here at CS's. She immediately spoke to my lunch mates calling some by name and remembering some faces from nearly a decade back. Inez has served 2-3 generations of Jacksonians some of the finest burgers on the planet. We all ordered burgers at our table even though they had a mean plate-lunch on the menu that day. The signature Inez Burger is a huge patty served open-face topped with chili and cheese with a side of Jalapenos. It looked fantastic. I ordered my regular large bacon-cheese burger. This one came as a double stack with a bun in the middle like a Big Mac...only it had real meat and real bread. This burger is fantastic. Not only is it fantastic, but after our table of 5 ordered, the food was at the table in about 5 minutes. The toasted bun is great and the meat was flavored really nicely. I cannot tell you how sad I am I have been here for 5 years and this is my first CS Burger. Finally, like Beatty Street, the value is also there. The large burger is $6.75! With awesome fries and tea I was out the door for under $9. Amazing they are still serving food at such a great value. This burger in on or near the top of my Top 10 list! Thanks for the suggestion Shush...keep them coming. read more

Best burger in town. Yes, even better than Stamps. Friendly service. You won't be disappointed.

What a great lunch with all these great foodies! Appetizer combo: Chili cheese fries, fried pickles, fried cheese sticks, and onion rings. Those chili cheese fries was phenomenal, as were the fried pickles. CS's Club Roast beef, turkey, and cheese. This was bomb! The fries were store bought and overcooked. But the sandwich was great! Peanut butter pie: I was too full to even taste it but they said it was very good. It's really sweet and has a crunchy peanut butter texture. Inez was our server. She was not very personable, but she was good. We met the owner and he was a pure joy. My good friend nearly gave me and herself a heart attack simultaneously while checking out. make sure to try the old fashion peppermints in the box at the check out counter. It will be an experience that's for sure. Great time with good people! Please make sure to get by here and show our support. This is a historical place in our community and they need our support! read more

CS's has been around forever and is a classic but well kept secret in Jackson. If I ever have friends in town, this is the first place I want to take them to eat. Keep in mind this place only serves lunch until 2 so no late lunches! They serve signature burgers which are always a sure thing, with either onion rings (holy crap delicious) or fries (also h.c. delicious.) My order for gastro-nirvana is the mushroom burger: gravy, mushrooms, gooey cheese, and delicious meat, with fries and a side of comeback to dip them in :). I mean, you're already getting some variation of a delicious heartattack, so its not as if the comeback dressing is going to be what does you in. Note: All burgers are served in small, medium, or large, but I cannot eat anything larger than a small and I'm sure most people would agree. Also, while you're there, note all the cool memorabilia on the wall. This is a place where you can get your favorite candidates bumper sticker put up on the wall or share a humorous story. The best in guilty pleasures, I can't recommend this place enough. read more

So decided to try this place after reading a few reviews. It wasn't difficult to find as it is a staple in the community. Located near Milsaps College, the stadium and all 3 of the main hospitals. We placed a large order. The staff was friendly and courteous when taking our order. We ordered the 6 oz burgers and fries, the pimento cheese burger and fries, chicken strips and fries, the grilled chicken chef salad, peanut butter pie and peach cobbler. Everyone enjoy the burgers. The chicken strips were a hit and the desserts I would come back for. The salad (le sigh) was a bed of ice berg lettuce maybe two slices of tomato and sliced hamburger pickles. No cheese, boiled eggs, croutons or bacon bits all of what you typically find in a chef salad. It was topped with dry, fried chicken pieces that were hard and certainly not fresh. Presentation matters to me, therefore I will not be returning for the salads. The burgers and desserts may require a double take.? read more

The interior of this restaurant is about as Mississippi as you'll get, boasting walls full of bumper stickers promoting local and state candidates of all parties (plus some federal candidates) and local schools. I ordered the famous Inez Burger that I'd heard so much about. Either my patty fell apart on the grill or they serve it broken, but thankfully that had no affect on the taste. That little bit of extra heat from the jalapenos goes well with the chili, and there was plenty of chili and cheese on the plate to dip my fries. The Inez is a very messy burger, so a knife and fork is required. I hope to return and try some other burgers. read more

Cs's - The very messy Inez Burger - Burgers Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Best. Burger. Ever. Came here for lunch on a Monday and the place was definitely busy! I was seated immediately and ordered a sweet tea. Let me tell you, being from Virginia, the tea is usually made unsweet or is never sweet enough. Their tea is ahhmazing. I had probably 5 glasses! I ordered a cheeseburger with a side salad and fries. Side salad had their famous "comeback" dressing which was a great addition. Burger was cooked perfectly and had lots of flavor! The fries were great as well... Especially dipped in comeback sauce. The service is second to none and the atmosphere is really cool. Tons of memories and history to this place and I love that it's family owned. If you're looking for the best food and service, this is your go-to. Love CS's. Can't wait to go again the next time I'm in Mississippi! read more

CS's is THE place to eat if you venture this far down south. Mr. Pat is the sweetest person on earth and the fried chicken they serve is absolutely heavenly. I get the comeback sauce by the bowl with a side of fried chicken salad every Wednesday that I'm home. My mom even drives up a cooler full of comeback when I'm away at school. Not to mention I've been giving away "Ski Mississippi" shirts to all of my friends for basically any holiday. The parking is less than ideal, but walking in to see people I've known all my life, surrounded by true history of my home state is something that is priceless. P.S. - if you sit in the back section and look for a George Mason University flag, the booth directly under it is "my" booth. No seriously, it has my graduation photo and my favorite team's memorabilia all over it. Literally my face is on it. read more

Interesting place with an interesting history. Either way this is one of those dive bars that has that bluesy juke joint feel. The chicken sandwhich here is possibly one of the best in the city and I've heard the burger is the unofficial #1 best in the city as well. One thing is for sure, you can't beat the great live music that rock the walls of this place. Its located in a spot that is easily missed. You've got to be apart of the city to know about CS's. Its been here longer than I can remember and gthe vibe remains the same. read more

I worked downtown Jackson and CS's is common spot for state employee's, Belhaven, Millsaps, and University Medical Center students. It's cool to hang out, burgers are decent - after having a Cool Al's or a Stamps Super burger, its hard to get excited about anyone else's burgers in town. Nice people, good prices, so/so portions. You just have to judge for yourself, me though, I can only give three stars - due to Stamps and Cool Al's making burgers in the metro area. read more

Amazing food!!! Service was great my waiter was very respectful and cheerful. I recommend this business before any fast food business.

Still a favorite. Always happy to see Pat and Inez. Feast on a Big Inez Burger or enjoy at wonderful plate lunch.

Yes, this little place has wonderful charm, character and great service - but the burgers are like school burgers. Yes, they are good - but not worth 5 stars. read more

It is because of places like this that I give other places (such as 5 Guys) only 3 stars. Other reviewers have covered most of my points, but I'll rehash. The atmosphere is great, the food is tasty, and the staff is friendly. Ms Inez always knows just what I want and always makes me feel like I've been missed when I haven't been there in a while. The tea is sweet enough to give you a cavity thinking about it and the burgers juicy enough that you never have to worry about biting into an overly done piece. People swear by the Inez burger, but I've always been a Joe burger fan. I've recently switched to the (no real name as far as I know) pimento cheese, jalapeno, bacon burger. It always hits the spot. They do have a plate lunch that is always satisfying as well, not to mention peanut butter pie. I will say that the fries have changed since my last visit. I'm not 100% sold on them yet! read more

Well...I shared a basic cheeseburger and fries with my hubs and I was underwhelmed. Kinda tasted a lotta cafeteria-ish. Is there anything else that they serve??? read more

The place would have received a better rating but their burgers are supposedly what they are know for and the one I ordered was just mediocre. I just finished eating and it was about the quality of a 5 Guys Burger. Now the lunch plates however were off the charts. I had to try a bite out of my sister's plate, Fried chicken and veggies, and my mom's hamburger steak. Both were amazing. Step up your burger game. read more

Jackson institution, great burgers and plate lunches. Best fried chicken on Wednesday! $2 beers aren't bad either!

The food is ok and the service is terrible! They apparently only employ ONE waitress

If you like greasy spoons bursting with local flavor, don't miss CS's. The only drawback is the smokers. This place has a wonderful lunch special everyday that is full of southern goodness. If you go on Wed, you get homemade Fried chicken with 2 veggies, cornbread and tea for under $10. Other days, check out the Inez Burger. It's named after the great waitress that handles about half the orders in the place. She has a big wonderful smile for you when she gets to the table, but don't get her mad at ya! :) Get your order to her quick as she has about 20 other tables to handle. CS's is another place I won't think about skipping in Jackson, MS. The food is wonderful, and so are the folks. It is on my calendar for lunch every time I am in town! See my other reviews for more down home cooking favs! read more

I currently live in New Orleans but am moving back to Jackson soon. To celebrate, my first lunch will be at CS's! If they still have daily plate lunches that's what I'll have! I've never even had a burger there. For many years theirs was the best jukebox in town so I'll be interested to see if they still have one! The best gift you can give is a Ski Mississippi t-shirt. read more

I have not actually been here. But my girlfriend states it's very good. She had the burger which she states was great. Come check it out. Yum yum read more

It's great if you're into nostalgia. The beer is cold. The burgers are fine, but if you're eating based on quality, there's better places to find a burger of any kind. The Inez is what they're known for and it's good, but unfortunately you can't eat a side of ambience. read more

Go there for down home southern plate lunches and the Inez Burger. The fried onion rings are fantastic. The state legislators love it. I think they are only open for lunch. read more

Inez burger is still the hands down best burger in Jackson. No one else is even close.
