To see across the dining room one has to shield one's eyes with one's hands.... Paint the walls gray, and put some shades on those bright lights! Best to ask for the other dining room which has a much better environment for your eyes and senses. Flatware is the CHEAPEST sold to restaurants, terrible, just like the cheap flatware used by The Loft. Server was friendly for sure but not professional. None of the servers could tell you anything about any of the wines... except for the difference in color! Owners, teach your staff about the wine list! Your servers should know what a Malbec is and that it's from the Mendoza region in the Andes of Argentina, for example. We each had a dish that included a flatiron steak. Sadly our steaks were incredibly tough and chewy. I was able to eat ZERO of it... first bite... chew chew chew until it arrived at its destination, in a paper napkin. Same outcome for bites two and three.... Both ended up in my napkin! The server failed to notice that everything on my plate was gone but the steak appeared untouched! She should have noticed that the other foods were disappearing but the steaks sat appearing untouched on our plates. Green beans, shrimp, pasta dishes all a 10 out of 10! We will go back as overall this is a decent place to eat! However, still waiting on the down town Laurel restaurants to class it up! After all, we are a tourist town (HGTV-Home Town fans) and our guests are here daily from all over the country and world. Train the staff, learn the wines, ditch the cheap flatware, think about adding cloth napkins... and paint the dining room and dim those flood lights!

Sorry about pictures started eating before remembering to take pictures ‍. Place was really good!…read moreStarted with boudin's balls. So good, crispy outside and creamy inside! Served with a horseradish sauce! Than to the gumbo with a dear rich rouge flavor and crab and shrimp (could use more crab and shrimp tho). Red beans and rice I would rate a 6. Seamed to have an off flavors. Not balanced. Drinks were decent. But dessert was the star! the Beignets were so delicate and creamy on the inside, covered in powdered sugar and fried fresh and just right. Heavenly! I highly recommend this place.

The crawfish etouffee was the absolute all time worst I've EVER had! Fins then moved locations and it seems a lot of things changed and their gumbo is just not like it used to be. So this USED to be a four star joint for their gumbo and a three to two star for the rest of the food now everything here has gone to a three star rating for the local area but in NOLA this would be a two star joint. Laurel, MS really has a LOT of mediocre food joints these days sadly so it is hard to get above a three star rating.

The Salem Opry House is located in a building that was constructed in the 1920s and used as a…read moreschool which they have renovated into their restaurant space. The old building has a nice atmosphere and was the peak experience of my visit here. My dining party was disturbed by the menu listing a $6 upcharge for sharing an entree which I've never seen that before and we don't ever share entrees but it just sounded ridiculous (I have since seen a handful of other restaurants doing this strange practice around this area). So your meal starts out with turnip greens (with pork so I don't eat that), cole slaw and hushpuppies. For our entrees my dining companion (my mom) got a hamburger steak with a sweet potato and I got the grilled salmon with a sweet potato. So... my grilled salmon was the most well done fish I've ever been served and it was literally crunchy on the outside and very dry on the inside which some might say it was burned. I've had more moist and delicious salmon jerkey than what I was served here. The sweet potato was the really good and the best part of my meal. My mom enjoyed her hamburger steak and sweet potato. We both just drank water and the price for our meals came out to $43.68 which included an odd $1.38 service fee before tip. We thought for the rather small serving size of the entrees the price was on the expensive side. Overall I have no plans of returning to this spot as the food was just meh... I did really like the historic building. It totally isn't fair to compare other places to New Orleans but that is my point of reference and I have to say this area is really a food desert compared to The Greater New Orleans area and Acadiana. So much of the food I've tried in these parts is just really bland and to my taste usually dissappointing.
