    This was a double portion of hash browns for $9.00. So small Container felt completely empty. Never again.
    Yolanda S.

    I stopped by Eats to pick up a vegan hash brown. No eggs or meat. No cheese. Just hashbrowns with bell pepper, onion and jalapeno. I was informed they don't have bell peppers. Ok. I opted for just onions and jalapeno. When I picked up the order the bag literally felt empty. Like nothing was in the container. It weighed nothing. I had to double check to make sure I was given a double portion. To my surprise they used the hash browns that are cut very fine. I was hoping eats would have served cubed hashbrowns. The hashbrowns had no crisp to them. No salt or any type of seasoning. They were essentially flavorless. And the portion size was super small. The image doesn't show the true size of the portion. These folk gave a teeny tiny portion of hashbrowns and dared to charge almost $5 dollars for what should have been a $3.00 (if that) portion. I was so upset at this. I understand food prices have gone up but potatoes are suppose to be a fairly cheap food. I'm noticing a lot of the restaurants are gouging on usually cheaper items. I believe they are doing this to make up for the cost of other items that are becoming more expensive. Also, Mississippi restaurants charge more for items that are cheaper in other states. As a frequent traveler I will stop by a restaurant out of state and buy a product for one price and when I come into Mississippi the next day I can order the same sandwich from the same restaurant and the price is more expensive. I have never understood why this is. Never again. Do better E.A.T.S. I overpaid for some soggy saltless hashbrowns and that shouldn't be.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal here and will be back! Only had about a 20 minute wait when we arrived at 11 AM on Sunday. Our server, Josh, was very kind and attentive. We got the "E.A.T.S. Breakfast", "Sunrise Sandwich", and "The Diner Salad" with fried chicken. Everything was delicious and fresh! The owner, Ashley, even came to our table to speak. She is the best! We can't wait to come back. :)

    Biscuits and gravy

    Came here for quick breakfast before the Super Bowl. Line was out the door so we sat at the bar. Customer service did not lack sitting at the bar. I had the biscuits and gravy the breakfast sando and mimosa. Every thing I got was hella good and would get again. Ambiance gave that home feeling. Very clean and everyone was attentive and nice. Would def be back when I'm in town. I would highly recommend EATS diner.

    Blue plate special
    Amy R.

    I am really not one to leave bad reviews... I feel like I'm pretty honest when it comes to food at restaurants, but this was by far one of the worst meals I have ever eaten. First of all, there was no gravy on the mashed potatoes. I had to ask for it. Then, the mashed potatoes were lumpy, which I understand because they're mashed not creamed, but the potatoes that were in there, were basically raw. They were inedible the food was not hot. It had no flavor. The chicken breast, which was the blue plate special today was basically a chicken tender. Very disappointing.

    I am so glad we came across this cute little diner while in Jackson! They have a good and open space and they even have homemade ice cream! YUMMY. For breakfast, I ordered the Big Breakfast. It comes with two eggs, choice of hash browns or grits, toast or biscuit, and choice of two meats (bacon, sausage patty, smoked sausage link or breakfast ham). Everything was so good. It tasted like a home cooked meal. It was seasoned to perfection. Before leaving, I had a single scoop of birthday cake ice cream and it was really good. If you are in the area, this place is definitely worth stopping in. We also had the Benyay's! They were super light and fluffy with just enough powdered sugar. Great spot!

    Check for meal

    When I came here from my last visit a couple years ago, I was expecting it to be very good. I like to be supportive of small businesses. The salad, okra, and beignets were good. I was under the impression I was getting the blue plate special price at supper for $12, which was entree and two sides. After eating my lasagna that was cold in the middle, I was trying to be positive. But, when I received my check for over $30, I knew something wasn't right. The two waitresses decided to inform me after the fact the blue plate was only for lunch. I would not think I would have to read in between the lines on a menu. Friendly atmosphere, but make sure you ask questions and read carefully or you will be deceived when receiving the check. It was sad they didn't even offer to compensate just a little bit or any adjustment or have a manager come talk to me. I paid in cash to get the cheaper price, since this meal was outside of my budget range I had in mind tonight. For current economic conditions, not for people barely making ends meet. But, the waitress was very sweet that is still learning and tipped her a dollar, since I know what it is like to work in the customer service industry. 01/08/2025

    Pancakes with bacon and one scrambled egg
    Dawn M.

    Had to come to Ridgeland for some errands and remembered a post about EATS Diner a friend made last year. Let me start with service. Everyone working as servers/hostesses is young and these are some of the hardest working young people I've seen in a restaurant setting in a while. My drink order was taken as soon as I was seated and my food order taken once I put the menu down. Food came out hot off the grill and I was checked on for refills at a good pace. I ordered the two pancakes breakfast with bacon and added one scrambled eggs. One reason I like to eat local for breakfast is you get real eggs and not powdered or liquid eggs. The pancakes were very fluffy and the bacon was the thick-cut variety. Everything, including my coffee was really, really good. I saw a couple of plates from other patrons and the omelettes look good too.

    Blue Plate Special. Fried chicken. The chicken was god but the sides didn't have ANY seasoning
    Janice S.

    It was "ok". Not really a place that I would seek out or recommend. It's definitely "diner food". Okay but, not anything special. I will say that it was not busy and we were on our lunch break so, that was a plus. ‍ I also didn't really care for the way their recipes work. One thing was printed and another was computed at the register. It's odd for sure!

Great Legos on display, a cool "game" vibe, and very friendly staff. The food was also really good. The chili cheese tots were excellent. The tots were crispy and the chili and cheese were delicious. My chicken sandwich on Texas toast was also very good. The pickles they put on this sandwich, along with the garlic mayo, really add great flavor, and the toast was buttered and perfectly toasted. The pizza was good and you can add extra pepperonis if you want, for $1. They have tons of board games and card games and even a few video games for people to play. They host gaming nights, apparently, which is cool. The service was also really good. They asked if we wanted water to go, and without asking, they brought a small to-go cup of lemons, since we had lemon with the water we had with our food. A very nice touch. It's an interesting place in the middle of Mississippi that is worth stopping at if you're passing through around lunch time.

While doing so I stumbled across this location and decided to give it a try. I was amused by all the nerdy decor so I decided to nerd out and have dinner while watching Star Trek. My waiter explain the menu to me when I told him it was my first visit and offered good suggestions on items I should try. He informed me that they have various nights where they have board games, movies, and other activities. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw and pretzel bites. The food came out in a timely manner and was well prepared at a great temperature. Although the coleslaw was bland, you can tell it was freshly made. The pulled pork was a good portion and flavorful while the pretzel bites were fluffy and salty just like you would want them. As to my old fashioned, it tasted good, but they didn't include the traditional cherry for the old fashioned. I enjoyed this experience and the next time I'm in town I will visit for sure.

This un-veling (not review) will combine my collective experiences of 5-guys (5G) from the central east-coast to central-mississippi. They all deliver a product which is at once: 1) almost-perfect; 2) uniform; and 3) nostalgic beyond our being. Gather your napkins for tears and grease. This is going to be a mess. My excitement grew ever as I exchanged coy glances and sharp eye aversions from the brown paper sack sitting before me. Its motley grease-stained contours bent over and toward me, so slightly and seductively. I acted. At once, I reached in and immediately recoiled by burned finger as I shouted, "hot damn!" finding something quite heavy tautly wrapped tin foil. I was flushed with pleasure as my aching hands gained contact with the curves and weight of that mysterious and metallic object. Judiciously, I decided not to be "too available." I put that heavy paper-weight aside as I reached further into that old lunch sack... Reaching in, I felt that signature salty-sandpaper exterior of that pleasant bed of fries made just for you. Instinctively, I dunked the heartiest and most fit salty hunk of potato into my catsup trough and slurped it up with a confused bliss. After about 5 minutes of repeating the same, my hazel eyes looked sharply to that metallic heap of protein and veggies on the edge of the dining counter. As I unveiled the the tin-foil, I looked at with the confidence of a new bride and with the promise 5G made to me since our relationship began. Confidently and proudly, I brushed my nose against the fresh cool-green lettuce and giggled as it tickled me when it was jutting awkwardly from the side. I tasted the cold onion and savored the specially-order jalapeños which almost bit me back with equal vigor. My mouth swelled passionately. The American cheese had long-since seeped into the crevices of the 100% quality beef exterior as I eyed that last bite. I was tired now, an entire lifetime had occurred. The veggies, once crisp and strong, wilted before my eyes as the cheese and beef juices swelled passionately. I was not really that hungry after being so succulently satisfied. It was so much food I couldn't stand it. Dutifully, I remembered the promise made far before the unveiling and unraveling of that tin foil and my burger-bride. Although I couldn't recognize it in the end- I left my meal with feelings of times more pleasant than these before us. Those wannabe fries knocked it down from a 5-star to a 4-star. Yes...it matters.

For 8 PM that would give me 20 minutes to get checked in my room and drive 1/2 mile to pick up the food four minutes tops. I arrived at 8:03 which gave him plenty of time. I went inside, stood in line until the lady at the register that I was here for online order ok over there didn't ask for my name or nothing. People came in made orders picked them up left they were delivering order left and right and at 8:20 PM, I think they could see the frustration on my face because one of the ladies in the back asked me what was the name on my order? I told her and the guy looked up on the shelf along with about five other bags that were sitting there and there was my bag. I took it and left when I got to the car. It was ice cold. These folks don't even try. But as I said, what do you expect? its Jackson, Mississippi, Sunday night and the people just don't care. Sorry Five Guys, your places are normally top-notch, but y'all need a severe house cleaning here. Maybe you can get some people that actually act like they are there to work. The sad part about this is I went to this particular FGs even though I had read the reviews! I thought, nah, can't be that bad. I stand corrected "with a $20 bag of ice cold food."
