    Seafood pasta
    Torrye E.

    Nice quaint vibe with Great service - the pasta was good and seasoned well 4/5 - the gumbo was delicious but could've used a touch more flavor 3/5

    Catfish Thibodeaux

    I travel for a living, and this hidden gem is my favorite place to eat in the state of Mississippi. I had the Catfish Thibodeaux, a shrimp and crabmeat stuffed panko bread crumb incrusted catfish filet topped with a Jalepeño cream sauce. They serve it over a veggie rice pilaf which by itself would be amazing. Their appetizers are fantastic, and the Seafood Gumbo is some of the best you'll get anywhere. Also, I love their bread pudding. They also have very good steaks. All in all it's hard to top it!!!

    Exorbitant but charming. This down-town night haunt distinguishes itself in north Mississippi though its New Orleans style. White table cloths, folded, napkins, ice-water served; you get the picture. When you order rare they give it to you rare. This is the mark of an accomplished cook-staff. You might as well spend the $30 for it when a fish plate will run toward $20. Surprisingly, the fried mushrooms were tastier than the steak. The steak could hold its own but lacked any zing at all. It was a quality cut but rather bland. One advantage this place has is that it is very quiet. You could hear a cat prowling for a mouse. Luckily, there were neither rats nor cats to be seen.

    Jubilee Burger-Angus beef stuffed with Gouda cheese!
    Eric G.

    Two words: Voodoo Burger! Mmmm! Mmmm! Well, I guess that's two words and a couple of sounds. Either way, it equals a happy tummy and happy taste buds! Then, there is the Jubilee Burger, that is filled with Smoked Gouda INSIDE the angus patty! Then, there is the tuna....then.... Oh, you get the idea! Bring your appetite and leave satisfied!

    Looks nice at least

    Pluses: . The building resembled French Quarter architecture . Attractive decor helped give an authentic feel . Wait staff was nice Minuses: . Food preparation was slow . A cold roll (right out of the package) was provided atop so-so cuisine I expect this place to discontinue business within the year. In a nutshell: If you wanna dine at a New Orleans bistro, and you're less than a 5-hour-drive from there ... then go to New Orleans.

    A good little spot for a nice, cheap lunch. The only downside is that the burger doesn't come with fries, you have to order them as a side!

I ordered the LandShark rolls, Boudin egg rolls, Bayou Mac, and a southern-style catfish. Let me just say... this spot was VERY good. Now the real star of the show? The LandShark rolls Soft, cheesy, packed with crawfish -- man... these were dangerous lol. I'm almost glad I didn't come here earlier during my trip because I would've been eating these every single day. No question. The Bayou Mac was also on point -- rich, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering again. Honestly, I had no complaints about anything I tried. The restaurant was pretty packed, which tells you everything you need to know. But if you're in a rush, they've got a food truck-style pickup outside, so you can grab your food and keep it moving. If you're anywhere near Oxford or Mississippi State and craving seafood, this is a must-try spot. Nothing but positive vibes from me -- I'd definitely come back. Thumbs up all around

I've been eating…read moreSmall Time Hot Dog for 11 years now and Bam is the friendliest guy and always remembers me. He's really god about connecting with his customers who turn into friends. I remember when Small Time Hot Dogs was a small hot dog cart that came to town (Grenada) every week. They hop around from town to town in central MS, posting their weekly schedule on their social media pages. Better catch them when in your town! I've since moved to Desoto county and can't catch them when we go back to Grenada occasionally, but I check every time. My favorite is just a regular dog with mustard, ketchup, and relish. Their hot dogs are very meaty and flavorful. I will occasionally get a southern dog. It is a must try, but a lot of meat going on!! They also have BBQ nachos that are amazing. Their tamales are the best around. Po boys are big and tasty. I'm not a lemonade fan, but I have heard they are the best around also. Oh, don't forget to get a funnel cake!

    I am conflicted. I…read morel o v e hot dogs. Did I mention that I LOVE hot dogs? Normally when I go out for a hot dog (or in my cases two...because I am "that girl"..) it's either a really great one or it just plain sucks. In the case of Small Time Hot Dogs - it was square in the middle and thus I am conflicted. Scene: Dinner and a Movie at the Museum on 5/18. Hot dogs were being taken from the museum to about 10 minutes away so they had a bit of a drive because we thought it was going to rain and decided to just not stay there. *Taking this into account when writing this review.* Ordered: One order of plain fries Two Dogs: New York and Milwaukee with Extra mustard, kraut, add ketchup, onions and cheese to the Milwaukee New York Dog - Hot dog quality was very good. The hot dog was meaty, delicious, and plump without being hard. The quality of the meat is on point. - The bun was a standard bun. It's what you want in a food truck hot dog. My bun was super soggilicious but that is because of the kraut + drive home. - Fixings: Kraut was nearly flavorless. Mustard was nearly flavorless. Red onions were fine. Ketchup nearly non-existent. Overall: Decent dog, don't be a moron like me and travel with it because it won't travel well. It was loosely thrown together which makes for a bad doggy. When you put a hot dog together there is a structure you need to follow. This wasn't it. Milwaukee Dog - Hot dog quality was very good. The hot dog was meaty, delicious, and plump without being hard. The quality of the meat is on point. - The bun was a standard bun. It's what you want in a food truck hot dog. My bun was not a super sog but it didn't seem to hold the fixings well. - Fixings: Kraut was nearly flavorless. Mustard was nearly flavorless. Red onions were fine. Ketchup nearly non-existent. Cheese was melty. Overall: Not a good dog. Maybe I overdid it on the cheese or onions? Who knows. But for all of the elements on the dog it had no flavor - just the hot dog. Structure bad, that was about all. Fries: Good, solid french fries. Crinkle cut and delicious. Not much salt on them which makes me happy! Price: $15.00 - not bad! Consensus: Small Time Hot Dogs needs to work on some things. I'll give them another shot next time they are around because a good, solid hot dog is super hard to find. They need to work on a good structure for their dog (bun, mustard on the bottom along the center of the bun, ketchup on the sides of the dog, relish and kraut on the top of the mustard, then dog, then a drizzle of cheese (or none) and then send it on it's way. So overall... I will give them a second shot because the hot dog itself was very tasty. If you see this truck, support it and go buy some dogs. It's hard to do a food truck down here and it's even harder to find a hot dog truck down here. Support your local food truck!

The table had ordered a fried pickles but it was a bit too salty for me. The catfish was great, seemed pretty fresh and it didn't have any metallic taste. The sweet potato casserole was just the right amount of sweet and savory. I was going between the catfish and sweet potato to balance out the flavors. The fried okra was a bit bland and definitely needed the sauce. The service was great - attentive and gave great advice on food options. The interior fits the diner appearance and everything looked pretty clean and tidy. Other people in the party enjoyed their poboys and hash brown casseroles.

Heard we had to try Ajax, the diner, not the soap. We stopped in for lunch before heading to Nashville airport to come home. The diner is about what you'd expect inside. Old, kitschy and full of decor. We sat in a booth an were greeted by a waitress promptly for drink orders. Cokes and waters. They deliver the coke in a neat Ajax cup. I ordered the chicken fried steak. Wife ordered the chicken and dumplings and step son ordered catfish. Everything arrived very quickly and everything was hot and southern deliciousness, except the corn bread. The corn bread was dry and not very good at all. Pretty sure it was yesterday's leftover bread or someone needs to pull it 5 minutes sooner from the oven. Unanimous at the table, Everton e had garb corn bread. No big deal. The chicken fried steak was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Gravy was great and the red beans and rice side was awesome. All great flavors. Wife loved the chicken and dumplings, good flavor and tender chicken. She got a side of sweet potato casserole and loved it. I had a bite and it was delicious for certain. Step son had the fried catfish, he is not a big seafood eater but he absolutely loves the catfish. I had a big piece and it was cooked perfectly and tasted great as well. The staff was outstanding, the service was great and the food was excellent sans the cornbread. Ajax is a neat little diner in the heart of Oxford. It's a little pricey as is everything in this college town, but it was worth the visit.

    Moi Birthday dinner two years in a row now…read more Moi absolutely favorite restaurant. The food is so Amazeballs. I dreamt of the Pork Chop we had last year, for the whole year, till I could get back here again & have it again for me Birthday.. and again, it was so freakin Amazeballs. Everything was cooked perfectly. Nailed both pork chops. The Lafitte sauce is so delicious, just get it on everything, that's my advice haha :)... The tuna tartare was also so Amazeballs we had to order one to go. We also ordered the Fettuccine with the Lafitte sauce with chicken to go, ohmygosh hubby & I fought over that next day at brunch! :).. The cheesy grits are a must order. Not your average grits. The grind is a much heartier grind. The quality & texture is superb. And topped with their "Lafitte sauce" AKA crawfish cream sauce ohmygosh. Heavenly :)... Reservations are a must. Beautiful vintage space. Bar area is very nice. Service is great. Southern hospitality at its finest. Very Romantic restaurant. The Casablanca Booth at NOLA, is moi booth.

Not quite as knowledgeable about the menu as we would like but that's not a dealbreaker. Mike had the Saint Charles shrimp. It was incredible. Those grit cakes were the best I've ever had. The Lafitte sauce is so good. I had the Lafitte pasta with blackened and shrimp. I highly recommend the blackened shrimp. They were top-notch. The fettuccine was cooked perfectly al dente. The sauce has a nice smoky flavor. The house fries were tasty, but could've been a bit hotter. The rolls were nice and warm and served with real butter. Real butter is always a bonus. The homemade ranch with a side salad was really good. I noticed a couple of people mentioned the prices on the menu. This is quality, fresh seafood, it's worth paying a little extra for. Sadly, the server brought the check with without asking if we wanted dessert. I had debated on the King cake bread pudding, but she settled that for me. We would definitely go and do recommend Nola Sidenote, when we walked in the door, we were greeted by a beautiful young lady, with very bright pink hair. She was so friendly and polite, we were a bit disappointed that we did not get her as our server.
