A quaint dinning experience located in a hotel adjacent to the lobby. The atmosphere was lively and the decorations were simple but clean and tasteful. We arrived for lunch and selected a burger with chips on the side. The burger was well prepared and tasty. A great stop before our next adventure. read more

Delta Meat Market is a true gem - one I've had the good fortune of enjoying on multiple occasions, and it has always delighted and impressed! Firstly, it's so cute. The interior is crisp and clean; somehow, they've struck a perfect balance of high-end homey. It feels upscale, but in an accessible way. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful - happy to make suggestions and conversation. Now on to the best part - the food! This place has got QUITE the menu. It's one of those places that will frustrate you because you'll want to try everything; it all looks so good! They also happen to have a delectable and creative-looking drink menu, if you're in the mood for libations. My favorite thing they have is the DMM Wedge salad (which was featured on Somebody Feed Phil)(and Phil loved it)(not to brag). I've also tried their braised short rib and their duck, and both were divine. Nothing I've tried here hasn't been divine, actually; these people really know what they're doing. I don't think it's possible to order wrong here. I also got their Hemingway Daiquiri and loved it. All their drinks look so thoughtfully-made (and equally as tempting). All in all, and you can probably tell already if you've made it this far, I love this place. Love everything about it. Cannot possibly recommend it any more. Delta Meat Market is a must if you're in Cleveland! read more

I was in town this weekend and stayed at the Cotton House. I was delighted by the cute Delta Meat Market in the lobby! It was the perfect place to grab a glass of wine on the way in town and for a light lunch before leaving town. I had the snapper dish which was very good- especially the creamed corn it was served with. The wait staff was diligent and my dog and I loved sitting on the patio while we got some work done. read more

My wife and I visit locations to try different things. We decided to visit the DMM based on reviews and what we hear. The Ambience was nice, clean and quaint. Food, upon receipt, was pleasantly a nice visual and appealing, once we finally got it. There have been FEW places that we actually stayed to receive our dinner where it took over 30 minutes to just get drinks made and then about an hour to finally receive our food. They were not that busy (less than 30 customers) and it seemed odd that it would take so long. The waitress seemed uninterested in visiting our table or checking on us or keeping us posted on when the food would arrive. Once we did finally get the dinner, I was totally surprised at the results. If this was taking an hour to prepare, you'd think the pork chop would be cooked. I do know what a cooked pork chop should look like and pink/red/raw just isn't one of the ways. (See picture) When I brought this up with the waitress, she just blew it off and never responded or alerted a manager to discuss. But, was sure to bring us the full bill with no considerations toward some type of discount for lack of cook or time. Not sure if we will return, unless we have nothing but a ton of time to wait for drinks or food. read more

The Delta Meat Market was a very pleasant surprise. It's located in the hotel we were staying in (The Cotton House). We went for dinner and the service was A+. The chef is a James Beard Award nominee, which says a lot. I can't remember the name of my cocktail, but it was basically a Cosmo topped with bubbly (either Prosecco or Champagne). The first one was good but the 2nd didn't taste the same. The bartender left out the bubbly. Our server was quick to resolve the issue, so that was much appreciated. My party of 2 shared the Burrata as an appetizer...it was different but good! I had the scallops and spinach salad as an entrée. The scallops were cooked to perfection (which is hard to do) but the spinach salad didn't meet the mark. I've had better and can make better at home. The presentation of the salad was lacking and the hot bacon vinaigrette both appeared to be and tasted like straight bacon grease. Again, I make a similar vinaigrette at home so this was disappointing. The other guest had the grilled porkchop which was tender and very flavorful. We shared the moonpie bread pudding for dessert. While it didn't taste like moonpie, it was a delicious and very rich dessert. While there are some things that can be better, I'd definitely return. read more

This is the type of restaurant where you buy your food first, then find a place to sit. It's a rustic restaurant, situated inside of an upscale hotel. I happened to be driving by, while I was in town for Boy Scout activities with my sons. This seemed like a nice place to loiter, and I was right. I ordered the cobb salad, which comes with steak, and an iced tea. At 16 bucks, the price seemed a little steep for a small town lunch salad with tea. The cashier seemed insulted when I asked for my tea unsweetened (this is the South). Service was friendly, though. My food came out in a timely fashion, but I wasn't in a hurry. The salad was excruciatingly tasty! Everything tasted farm fresh! The highlight was the steak, which was a premium cut. Apparently, the restaurant also operates a butcher shop next door. No wonder! The taste and quantity of my food justified the price. I definitely spoke too soon. They also had breakfast food, and the morning vittles I saw on some folk's plates looked extremely appetizing. This place is large on taste, large on quantity, and semi-large on price. Anytime I'm in the area, I will eat here. If you happen to be in Cleveland MS, give this joint a shot! read more

This is a place that has breakfast and lunch on the first floor of the Cotton House Hotel, a Marriott property. Breakfast is good. Lunch is acceptable. Dinner is typically very poor and the dinner restaurant, on the fifth floor of the hotel, fails to honor its published closing hours, which is a huge problem for a business traveler who depends the hours are correct. I've stayed here over half a dozen nights, perhaps closer to eight or ten nights. The food has been good once. Poor on the other occasions. The restaurant, without warning, shuts down and closes the kitchen, as well as the bar, prior to its published times. Tonight, I had the steak without fries. Medium rare. I received a medium steak, which smelled funny, WITH FRIES. It was not good. Truly, poorly managed. No electric outlets at the bar. The outdoor patio has two outlets, but they don't work. I'd recommend elsewhere...perhaps Backdraft, just down the street. read more

Yes, it is number one for a reason in this town and that's because we'll, they are number one. Excellent friendly customer service and exceptional delicious food is what you get when you visit this restaurant. It's located down town Cleveland, MS. Cleveland is a small town but yet in a very rural area of the Mississippi Delta. Customer service is is a rarity in the Delta but not here. The owner was born and raised in Cleveland and his retired father still lives here. The owners father is the former manager at Sherwin Williams. The owner was taught how to be a great chef in Nashville, TN says his father. He was also taught in Charleston, SC. Menu items ordered: Roasted Salmon, Rice, succotash and cornbread with a sweet tea. Everything was delicious and tasted just great. Yes, I will be back again. read more

The food here is AMAZING! I definitely recommend the shrimp poboy. The service is pretty good for only 1 worker. Although there aren't a ton of menu options the ones that are there are great! The building and atmosphere is just fantastic. read more

Traveling through the Delta to McCarty pottery and we stopped at the Delta Meat Market. I haven't been here since it moved across the street into the Cotton House hotel. As always it was a great meal. I had the snapper tacos and followed them with a slice of chess pie. Tacos come with a side of rice and are spicy and juicy. As I was eating the Tacos I let the juice from the Pico de Gallo run into the rice to give the rice some moisture. Chess pie was fabulous and one bite send you into sugar nirvana. read more

Over charged for a cocktail party for 12 people! Not enough food, dry bread pudding, food not properly arranged on tray to keep what little was there fresh! I paid $425.10 for the small amount! I host many events & never paid this amount for such a small amount of food! So disappointed! read more

Best things about this place was the atmosphere and service. Very limited menu. Two people in our party had the grouper. It smelled so fishy and was over cooked. The sides that it came with were small. Ordered an extra side of cauliflower grit which were ok. Very different in flavor, savory with a touch of spice. The other main dish someone in our party had was the chicken thighs. Nothing special which for $20 for two thighs should have been spectacular. The other four people in the party ordered sides because no mains looked interesting. I did have the spinach salad hold the bacon dressing and feta cheese and added grilled veggies which I put on the salad. I had the best dish on the table. Our check with tip was $198 for 7 people with only 3 main dishes, 1 salad and some sides. Very expensive for small portions and limited choices. Might have been worth it if the food was special but it was nothing to write home about. read more

Sat here for 30 minutes with out ever getting a menu. I came in almost right at open as a 1top so it wasn't even that busy. I have no idea how the food is I simply left. read more

A great place for brunch. Bottomless mimosa and gourmet food that is not pretentious!! In the heart of the Delta!!

So....probably the best meal I have enjoyed in a long time and I have been fortunate to have experienced many 5 star experiences. I ordered the pork chop to take to my room after a long day. It was AMAZING!!! Fried okra, some risotto with apple, corn and such. I will be dreaming about this for a long long time. I would have liked it a little " less done" but honestly it was still incredible!!!!!!!!!!' read more

Saw this place on Netflix and was super excited to try it. Started well enough, it's a very pretty restaurant with a nice staff and an awesome location in the Cotton Row part of Cleveland. Since the owner saw it necessary to attack me personally on my Google review I will keep this brief and purely about the food. My family and I had an hour to eat before we had to be at a football game. We sat down and there were only 3 other people there and they already had their appetizers. We ordered and then we waited over 45 minutes for our food. We then had to leave and got it bagged up to go. The food was mediocre at best. The 30 dollar steak entree wasn't enough to fill up my 14 year old daughter who then had to eat most of my 13 dollar burger. The burger was tender but mostly tasteless, and the 6 small roasted potato wedges were mushy and bland. Lastly, my wife got the 18 dollar charcuterie board that didn't even fill up the styrofoam to go box... Overall, the only redeeming features were the style and decor and my daughter said the 4 bites of steak were amazing. read more

This Meat Market/Deli is a unique establishment in this college town. It is in an actual meat market with an eclectic atmosphere to include spices, kitchen utensils and such for sale as well as a very nice selection of meats and fish. I had the special which was meatloaf, seasoned rice, grilled squash and stone ground cornbread. The meatloaf was, well meatloaf, but was nevertheless very good. The cornbread was a bit on the dry side, but perhaps was setting out as we hit the lunch hour a little late. The rest of our party had the cob salad which came with a very generous portion of grilled steak (which was excellent) and what I presume were crumbles of their own cured bacon. (The bacon was very salty) We went away with some steak and silver dollar size scallops for dinner later! They do serve wine and have a few beers. Well worth a stop. read more

This was my first time ever in Cleveland. We stayed at the Cotton house, where this is located. Well let me tell you what a pleasant surprise. The food and the service were top-notch. The braised beef papardelle, and the scallops and risotto were amazing. It left us wanting more. If ever in Cleveland again,I will return. read more

Don't expect a special breakfast. It is a "nothing special " buffet with microwave bacon. The eggs are scrambled, but found out after eating that one may order eggs to your liking. It would be nice if they let you know that in advance. read more

A great place for lunch or to pick up some steaks for grilling at home. Walking in you can smell the freshness, and when I say freshness I mean fresh. 3 of us were eating around 2:00 PM and they had already crossed off several of the day's specials..... I told you it was fresh. We bought the last 3 burgers..... I told you it was fresh. My burger tasted like it was cooked outside on a grill, which it just might have been. They have a meat case of freshness that they'll gladly wrap up so you can cook at home. A solid beer selection including some local breweries and finish your meal with some local ice cream. I'll be back! read more

This is a solid choice for a good meal. You have to walk up and order so the service level doesn't seem to match how nice the hotel is.

Quick lunch after the swim meet and this place hit the spot. The DMM Wedge, The Cobb, and DMM Burger were all tasty. A little gem in the middle of the delta. read more

Such an unexpected gem in the Mississippi Delta! We planned to visit family and make a stop on our way to East Tennessee. We normally stop in Memphis but this year made a detour south. What a great spot to eat and rest in Cleveland Mississippi! The restaurant is located in the Cotton house hotel and is so cute and modern. The food is outstanding and the local gifts and good items make the perfect gifts. If you are ever close to Cleveland, don't miss the meat market and a visit to the Cotton house and downtown at Christmas to see the light display! read more

Food and service are great. Atmosphere is top notch. Bar and drinks are great as well.

Food we thought was good tasting and excellent value as we are from NY. However we thought the cocktails where way overpriced $18 for a low pour it's was New York City prices in MS read more

Had brisket and gravy biscuits. Along with eggs and mimosas. It was excellent! A little more gravy would have been nice but no complaints!!

Pros: Absolutely delicious! I wish it had been open more. We would have eaten every meal here. Located in The Cotton House. Courtney was a delight and shared things to do from a residents point of view for Cleveland. Cons: no breakfast and very limited hours. read more

We were excited to try this restaurant after driving to Cleveland from Greenwood for lunch. Upon entering I found that it was a well designed and attractive space. The chalk board behind the counter offered a small list of entrees which I guessed may have been limited because of COVID and the small number of customers present. It was a Wednesday at 1:00pm. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my sister had the house burger. The shrimp and grits dish was good but unremarkable and frankly, I make it better. My sister felt the same in that her burger was good but nothing special. It was a beautiful space and a good dining experience but average at best. read more

Had the Cob Salad with steak, sweet potatoes with warm sorghum on top and the Rueben Sandwich. The meat to kraut and dressing ratio gave this sandwich flavor, along with the way the meat was prepared. The sweet potatoes were extremely delicious and flavorful. Would recommend this place for the food, friendly, attentive service and atmosphere. read more

The Delta Meat Market, now located on the ground floor of The Cotton House Hotel in Cleveland, MS has been a rare jewel in the downtown area for several years now, but in its new incarnation on the other side of the green strip, it has blossomed into a fresh vibrant magnolia bloom of its former self. DMM has always been a great source for premium meat and seafood, but paired with the bright and welcoming space in the new location, it is sure to be one of the finest dining establishments in the entire MS Delta. From the moment my party and I walked in to DMM, we were cared for by friendly and attentive staff who not only took our orders with charming courtesy and prompt attention to detail, but made us feel at home as we took our seats. It is a rare and wonderful thing when diners feel like the staff has been secretly waiting for them to arrive all along! The seating was spacious and comfortable and the décor was inviting and the overall ambiance was like walking in to a room of old friends. I was dining with my wife and a few close friends and we ordered a variety of items from the menu so that we could share and experience some of the many exciting options available for dinner. My wife was thrilled at the presence of deviled eggs topped with bacon marmalade and sweet onion jam. Our friends chose the pork kielbasa and grits, and I ordered the wedge salad and the green tomato soup. My wife and friends raved about the eggs. I sampled the kielbasa and grits and was blown away! The sausage was cooked to perfection and even as a good old boy born and raised in the South, I've never had finer grits in my entire life! They were so creamy! The salad was excellent, but the shining surprise of our starters was the green tomato soup! It was topped with shaved almonds and the lemon and parsley in the soup gave it a fresh effervescence that felt like a spring morning. Just as we were polishing off our starters, our entrees arrived. Two of my friends ordered the grilled king salmon, one ordered the Homeplace Pastures Pork Chop with honey, and I decided to try my luck with the lamb curry. I HAD to have more of those grits and so ordered some as a side along with the sweet potatoes and sorghum. As we all began to dig in, our simmering dinner conversation about work and families was immediately replaced with polite closed mouth moans of gustational pleasure. The lamb curry was rich and spicy and topped a bed of gloriously tender long grain rice. The grits... mamma never made so good. The sorghum sweet potatoes were just about the best application for that tuber one could ever ask for! My friends were fortunate enough to share and I got to sample the pork chop, as well and I was only disappointed that I would have seemed a glutton to have ordered one right then and there and enjoyed it with my lamb curry! We finished our meal off with dessert. I had the lemon pound cake and it was a marvelous balance of rich textures, sweet icing, and tart lemon glaze. After dinner we went to the roof for a cocktail at the new Bar Fontaine and the relaxing atmosphere, cheery service, and incredible view of beautiful downtown Cleveland rounded out a perfect evening of great food, great drink, and great friends. It has been a long time since I've felt so thoroughly satisfied with a dining experience here in Cleveland. I am looking forward to many more and I highly recommend and endorse both Delta Meat Market and Bar Fontaine as stops for anyone looking for a memorable fine dining experience. Chef Cole Ellis and all of his staff are to be congratulated on such a fine job! read more

Overall dining experience was OK. Went with a large group of 11. One person's salad was forgotten. Had to go get our own drinks several times. Food was slow, but good when it arrived. Entrees were spaced out over 10 minutes-- And it was not that busy. Just don't go in a hurry read more

Wow! We loved it! What a cool vibe. Casual, but trendy and modern, mixed with an actual market, but don't let that fool you. You can get as good a meal here as any upscale, big city five star restaurant. They keep it simple but with country flair. My wife had red snapper on a bed of field peas/Lima beans and bacon and corn. I would have never thought this went together, but it phenomenal! I had the flat iron steak on a bed of grits and roasted veggies. It was full of flavor, tender and delicious! Don't expect white linens and folded napkins. It's not that kind of place. We had very attentive young server. They mix great drinks with fresh ingredients and have a full bar! read more

One of my favorite spots in the Delta! Great food and drinks as well as staff. Highly recommend!

This is our first visit to the Delta Meat Market in their new location in the Cotton Inn. What a beautiful setting. With a couple of large Christmas party groups the space was filled with vibrant conversation and laughter. If you were seeking a quiet romantic dinner spot, this may not have been the night for you, but I can see where a regular night it would fill that bill. The wine and spirits list is large and has many high quality options, as well as enough basics to satisfying the more budget minded diner. The beer list was slightly limited for a beer lover like me, but there were some nice local options. The menu for the evening was outstanding. Our group of seven all found wonderful options to fit everyone's tastes and desires. The sorghum sweet potatoes were a universal hit. The seasoned frites were quite tasty. One member of our party requested the 18 oz ribeye cooked medium rare plus. They hit it spot on. The only fish that let a bit to be desired was the Berkshire pork chops. The flavor was good excellent but they were over cooked and dry. The raspberry jelly served with them was a big help. My suggestion, instead of serving two thin chops (which are very difficult to not over cook) serve one chop twice as thick. I'm sure you will not regret this upgrade on the menu and you customers will love you for it. Overall an excellent experience and we will be back. Probably for lunch today! read more
