First the negatives... main dining room has black floors, black walls and black ceiling with…read moreexceptionally BRIGHT lights creating a difficult and awkward environment where you feel like you are on a stage! 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!

We looked around while there and the food all looked so good...from bacon wrapped asparagus to boudin stuffed chicken or pineapple stuffed pork chops! I will absolutely come back to pick something up to throw on the grill.

When we walked by the smell, or better said the aroma caught our attention. We had to walk in. This is a place for meat lovers. The butcher dog is delicious and you can tell it's not processed like you're ordinary ...dog. So good! The beef jerky I took back home to CT, and it was gone within a week, so good. Wish I had bought more, but you can order online. Owners are super kind, and friendly. I believe good things are coming their way, cause it looks like they are expanding. So if you visit Lauren, visit The Knight Butcher as well, they won't disappoint.

The tables were really long and you just fill in, which is great for meeting new people and striking up a conversation. The service was quick and the food came out quick too. They brought out mini biscuits and cornbread muffins to start which was also a nice treat. The blue plates are great as you get pick two sides, and the best part is the cobbler of the day or the bread pudding is considerably a side.... The plate specials are only $10 and drinks are $2.50, a great value overall.

We chose this restaurant because it is pet‑friendly. We initially planned to sit on the patio, but…read moreit was hot and humid the day we visited. We had our dog in an enclosed stroller, and they allowed us to bring her inside. The waitress was the sweetest and made our visit really enjoyable. She even brought our dog a bowl of water. I ordered the country fried steak, rice, and a side salad with raspberry vinaigrette. The country fried steak was delicious, cooked perfectly, and paired well with the rice. The rice came with brown gravy, which I wasn't informed about. I had wanted white gravy, so I mixed the brown in and added the white on top. After that, I couldn't taste the brown gravy at all. The salad was a generous size, and the dressing was delicious. I thought sitting at a commissary-style table might feel odd, but it was actually fine. I would definitely recommend eating here while visiting downtown Laurel.

The best brisket in the area I've had so far is at Swamp Shack BBQ a short distance away in Ellisville, MS. They seem to often be out of things here and then they have "specials" that they are also often out of which seems to indicate they are very busy usually. This place is definitely VERY popular in the area and it tends to be VERY crowded. They sometimes serve you really huge portions and other times smaller portions. I'm a big fan of Texas style BBQ which the brisket here doesn't seem to resemble the brisket I've had in Texas. Overall it is the best BBQ in Laurel, MS and they do have a cool space which is decorated with all sorts of bling bling inside.
