I went in for lunch and got one of the best Reuben sandwiches I've ever eaten. While I was there, since my sandwich was so good, I decided to get a grilled chicken salad and a small container of broccoli salad to take back to my hotel for dinner. This will definitely be one of my regular stops when I'm in town for work. I highly recommend it. I will see you guys next time!

Stopped here on a drive up from New Orleans. It is a little bit of a drive from the interstate, and…read morein an extremely depressed area. It must be a rough area as well, as they have a guy standing outside the establishment with a hand cannon protecting the restaurant and the vehicles outside. All you anti-Second Amendment folks need to spend sometime here...it will become apparent why some people need guns...but I digress. I'm here to discuss the food. The catfish is excellent. Hands down the best option here. They know what they're doing with the bottom feeders. Strangely enough, the fried chicken is not. I would mark that as an avoid. And the spaghetti casserole was not bad, but not the greatest either. I'd go all in on that catfish. The sides are quite good. I highly recommend the corn, green beans, and lima beans. Those lima beans are wow! I'd love to have that recipe. Overall, if you know what to get, you'll have a great experience. Personally, I'm glad I got off the interstate and came here. This is America. Not what you see from the highway.

This was my first time in Mississippi and I wanted to try a local restaurant. I searched Yelp and…read morefound this one, decided to give it a try. The staff was extremely friendly and patient while customers made their selections. You go up to the counter to order & pay and they bring your food out when it's ready. The seating area is large, clean, and has a relaxing vibe to it. We ordered the BBQ ribs & tips w/cabbage & dressing, BBQ ribs & tips w/green beans & yams, and the Chicken & dumplings w/green beans & baked beans. The meals all came with cornbread. The ribs had the perfect amount of smoke flavor & bbq sauce. They were also nice and tender. The sides were all flavorful and nicely seasoned, the cornbread was excellent. Highly recommend giving this restaurant a try

I walked in and no one was at the hostess stand. So I waited and waited and just went back outside…read more I walked back in and there were three ladies standing there and no one looked up or said hello. The restaurant was empty at 8 pm. After no hello the hostess starts walking with the menus. We follow. The food, all of it, was extremely subpar. Food you would expect at a late night fast food or Dennys. The blackened chicken had zero blackened spices on it. It was a reheated frozen patty. The French fries that came with it were cold, greasy and soggy so I asked for fresh fries. The waiter comes back to the table with a plate and asks for the cold fries back. Never in my entire life!!! I scooped them up with my hands and put them on the plate. Now I'm doing their job. I'm not wasting more time reviewing the other dishes. I have no idea where these glowing reviews are coming from. The server was kind enough. We were traveling through and relied on these reviews.

My parents and I stumbled across this place on our way home, and what a find it was. From the…read moremoment we stepped inside, we knew we were somewhere special. The exposed brick and thoughtful décor struck the perfect balance--classic and nostalgic with just the right touch of modern style. We were immediately welcomed by the sweetest hostess (I hate that I can't remember her name--she had glasses, a beautiful smile, and the cutest dress). She greeted us with genuine warmth and hospitality that's hard to come by these days. She led us into the main dining room and seated us at a charming table dressed in crisp white linens. The space featured more exposed brick, tasteful artwork, and just the right amount of décor. The temperature was perfect, and the tables were spaced far enough apart to create an intimate, relaxed atmosphere. Our waiter arrived promptly and was both friendly and knowledgeable. He clearly knew his craft and took the time to walk us through the specials, making sure we felt confident and excited about our choices. We ordered sweet tea, which was perfectly brewed--not overly sweet, just right. The complimentary peanut butter and crackers were something new to us, but after reading about the history behind it, we appreciated the thoughtful touch even more. Our food arrived quickly, and everything was fresh and cooked to order. We tried the spicy chicken sandwich, the cheeseburger, and a special featuring a panini with a cup of gumbo. Each entrée came with perfectly cooked homemade chips. Every bite was spot-on--truly a 10 out of 10. Even though we were full, we couldn't resist ordering dessert--when in Rome, right? We chose the peanut butter pie and the famous Black Bottom pie. After one bite of those generously sized slices, we all paused and just looked at each other. I don't exaggerate when I say we unanimously agreed they were the best pies we've ever had. What started as a plan to sample a few bites and take the rest to go ended with two completely empty plates. We consider ourselves food lovers, and I genuinely couldn't find a single flaw in the entire experience. We live nearly three hours away and are already planning a trip back. If you've made it this far in my amateur review, thank you--and I truly hope you get the chance to experience this wonderful, history-filled gem for yourself.
