A country gem found by taking the path less traveled. I stumbled upon this diner/bakery while driving backroads for work. I originally stopped here because I saw sign for a bakery. Around lunchtime they serve plate lunches from their special of the day or your choice of menu items. I've been here a couple of times and they really represent country love in their food #soulfood. Traditional cooking is well represented in their bakery items as well. From pies, cheesecake, to cookies, and chess squares, their desserts reminds me of Sunday dinner at Mawmaw's. They will cater too- I haven't used them yet, but will review when I do. read more

This is the only restaurant for many miles in the immediate area. The hamburgers and fries are the specialty here and those are definitely what they do best here. The fries are good and crisp with a nice flavor while the burgers are nice sized, juicy and flavorful. I've gotten the steak they offer here and I wouldn't do so again and I highly suggest sticking with the burgers. They also have quite a selection of desserts here which are generally good but I've also had one of the worst cheesecakes I've ever had here before too as it seemed it was half cold and half hot and all blah. On my last visit I was also a bit grumpy over the fact they were out of lemons for my iced tea. As this is about the only venue in the area quite a few local characters frequent this establishment. You can definitely observe some interesting folks and hear some local dialect to give you an experience unlike anywhere else but this little corner of rural Mississippi. As long as you stick with the burger and fries you should have a fine experience here and you might even get the pleasure of meeting some really friendly people. read more

This place had a country breakfast sandwich that was out of this world delicious! Since I'd recently started working in a nearby town, I would pass by Gitano Grill everyday. One morning I decided to stop by and grab a bite on the go. When I walked in, all chatter and chewing stopped, but I was greeted with a warm "Welcome to Gitano Grill, would you like some breakfast?" Yes ma'am I would!!! So I ordered the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, toasted with mayo. Since they are closed by the time I get off of work, my next visit will be on a Friday when they are opened later. read more

Since moving to Biloxi I've been using Yelp to warn about my bad experiences with hospitality and dining there. But I had to visit and rate Gitano because they're so wonderful! Wherever life takes me, they will always be #1 in my heart and tummy. The food is always PERFECT. If you're thinking about eating there today, GO FOR IT. You won't be disappointed! read more

I love this restaurant. My boyfriend and I have been to this restaurant a couple of times. The good is so good. Service is so friendly. The employees here make you feel at home. Always so clean. I can't wait to eat here again. read more

Very good place to eat if you're close by. Everything I've had was good. I recommend the cheeseburger or the country fried steak sandwich with the sweet potato fries. Also, save room for dessert. Nice selection of homemade cakes. read more

Excellent food....and the Sweet Tea is the best anywhere (can hold its own against McAllister's).

The food is very good. Very casual dress. The whole atmosphere is casual, laidback and friendly. Customers talk to each other a lot. Sometimes they walk around and talk. Sometimes they just talk to each other while sitting at their table. It's not loud, it's just laidback and friendly. Many of the customers are from the local area but anybody can strike up a conversation, you don't have to know one another. Everybody gets treated the same. I love that. Likewise if you didn't get something you want, just treat it like it's home and ask for what you need. It'll be brought with a smile and often a question of did I forget anything else (said with a smile)? Everything I've ever ordered has been very good. I love their side salad. I ordered a steak or hamburger steak and(can't remember which it was that 1st time I got a salad) the side salad, I promise, was in a bowl that I would use as a serving bowl at my house. There was cheese, etc, with the tastiest tomatoes. Don't get those much anymore. They said the tomatoes were locally grown. Ok. It's a mom and pop grill off the beaten path. But you know what. I'm so darned grateful it's off the beaten path that leads only a mile or so away from my house. Oh yeah! Almost forgot. If you want something done different. Just ask. If it's anywhere near reasonable I'll bet you that you get just what you are after. Don't take that bet because I'll win! Lol! Somebody said that the sweet tea was really good. Yeah. It certainly is. When my husband and I go there to eat I know that he drinks a minimum of a quart and don't count the ice as a part of the volume. He's going to be on the 3rd glass by the time we start eating. That's going to be about 10 or 15 minutes later. Like the lady said about the tea, it's GOOD! I really hope y'all will Try it. You won't be disappointed. read more
