Had some really good food, solid friendly service, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]happy music for the soul[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Definitely worth a try

A few years ago, we lived in Jackson and this was one of our go-to places. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food was always good, the service was excellent, and it had a great atmosphere that made it a fun place to meet friends or grab a meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] While passing through recently, we decided to stop in for lunch and relive some good memories. Unfortunately, things have changed over the years. The quality of the food has noticeably declined, and the service was disappointing compared to what we remembered. It's always frustrating when a place you once enjoyed no longer delivers the same experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is still there, but the food and service just didn't live up to our past visits.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We left highly disappointed and wishing it was still the restaurant we remembered. read more

Most of the food was good but none of it was special. It took a VERY LONG TIME to get our food, and the restaurant wasn't full. We were pleased with the fried pickle appetizer and the amount we got (would order it again if I go again); however, we were very disappointed with the very small pieces of minced-meat buffalo chicken appetizer, which were about the same consistency as McDonald's chicken nuggets. And even with happy hour discount, the price was way too expensive for 5 small fake chicken nuggets. The shrimp and grits were good, but not extra good. The sausage was the best part but I only had 4 small thin pieces on the edge of the plate. The portions were okay, but as you can see in the photo, the cup for the corn was only half full, and there weren't many potatoes. The regular sized chicken looks huge compared to them because they were small. Don't bother to order happy hour drinks!!!!!!!! If you're going to order drinks, avoid the happy hour watered-down, no-flavor drinks and pay the high price for the specialty drinks. The happy hour drinks were terrible. I mean terrible! At best they tasted like extremely watered down Kool-Aid. But the higher-priced top-shelf margarita was very good. HEY MANAGEMENT, if you're going to have a happy hour, make it a good one so people will come back. We also had water, but it tasted like the glass had chemicals in it from not being properly rinsed. We requested different water, but sadly it was the same. After bringing the second water and it just sitting there, the server never checked to see if it was better. The server was nice, but he talked way too much and was overly exaggerated in his actions. The other employees seemed mad or like they didn't want to be there. On the way to the restroom, I passed someone going both ways, and I got nothing but a blank stare. Smile people!!!! It costs nothing and brings your customers back!!!! Overall, I'd go there again but definitely try something else, except for the fried pickles. But if the next experience isn't much better, I will not go again. read more

Ordered gator bites for the appetizer and redfish with sautéed mushrooms as my entree. Gator bites were good. Not overcooked or rubbery. The dipping sauce was okay. Nothing spectacular. The entree is described as coming on a bed of dirty rice. I wouldn't call it a bed. Perhaps a crib but definitely not a bed. The mushrooms (side) were nothing special. They were sautéed but not much flavor. The fish was cooked well and it was light and flaky. Our server was attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is of an upscale sports bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bill arrived and the suggestion for tips factors in the tax (which was $10). I don't tip for tax and it shouldn't have been added to the tip amount. Food was 4/5. Service 5/5. Ambiance 4/5. read more

The Bloody Mary was delicious! The Bang bang shrimp were good. I wasn't too thrilled that you ONLY get 4 oysters tho. Like who sells 4 instead of the half of dozen! That's ludicrous! The alligator bites were good too. read more

Food was quickly prepared but the taste was just right. Perfect seasoning and the right amount. Brown beans was best I've had and catfish is lightly breaded with great taste. Wife loved the gumbo which is rare for her. Cole slaw was just right. read more

I don't know what happened to this place but it sure was disappointing this time. Please turn this around. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Slow service, bad tasting food, small portions, loud shouting from the kitchen.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Completely different from our previous experiences here. Sad read more

Recommend based on our experience tonight. Service was good. We had the fried alligator appetizer. It was good. I ordered the bourbon glazed pork chop and my husband ordered the hot boiled shrimp. Both were good, really enjoyed the vegetable kabob side. My husband ordered the flaming bananas foster dessert. It was okay- lots of rum in it. Satisfied overall. read more

All the food we had was delicious. Between all of us we had gator bites, bang bang shrimp, oysters, crab bisque, steak and fries, and the Cajun plater. Waitress was nice and we even had live meals sick to listen too which was a surprise for us as we are from out of town. I would come back if we are ever back in the area. read more

HEAR THIS! I go to Redbones during Happy Hour and get fried crawfish tales, one crab cake, spinach dip, a wine, a beer and oysters. As we were eating the food, I had bitten into a crawfish bite pulling out of my mouth with a blind hair within the batter! DISGUSTING, we lost our appetite. Manager came ti table . Apologized and took off crawfish and discounted the ticket for 15%. Mind you I told him we would not be eating the rest because it paused and spoiled our appetites. I told him a 15% discount? Really? I agreed to pay for the drinks but why would I pay for the rest when we didn't eat the rest after their employee's filthy hair in the food. NASTY. read more

Had a horrible dining experience here tonight. Traveling for work and read so many good things but when I arrived, it was kinda slow but yet took awhile to get seated and then even longer for server to come over. The main issue however was the value of an appetizer for what you got and then the rudeness of the "manager"- Shane. It was $15 for a small plate of "gator bites". When Shane came over, he immediately was brusque and got defensive. He argued with me about his cost but then admitted it was half the price during Happy Hour. Even server quietly said "I didn't expect that was going to go well". Obviously Shane has anger issues and no customer service skills. WILL NOT BE BACK. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly environment with good service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good vibes and AWESOME live music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Sarah M our host was the best. read more

Our group of 4 stopped for lunch today, and were very pleased! The Po Boys were very good...the French bread and remoulade were perfect! The Cesar salad with grilled chicken and the black and blue salad were very good as well! We will definitely be back when we make this trip again! read more

I have a house in Jackson but live up north . I spend every 6 or 8 weeks in Jackson and spend that time eating out and one of the best places ever is redbones . Shane the manager is very accommodating Dana the bartender is the sweetest thing ever and remembers us every single time we're here . The newer chef will is amazing the food was spectacular and always is . I've never had even remotely a bad experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And the entertainment they have is every bit as good as Nashville!!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Visiting on a business trip and found this local gem with a laid back and humble ambiance! Our server Katelyn was an amazing server that gave us detailed answers about the menu and drinks. The alligator piss taste like a sour starburst and mask the alcohol well. My favorite was the steak with dirty rice, it was tender and tastes like carne asada. I left my sunglasses on the table after dining and remembered in the morning so I came back the next morning without prior notice and the hostess (a different Katelyn) answered the door 5mins before opening to go find my sunglasses and she found them!!! Win win for amazing service and kitchen. Can't forget the live music sick solos on the guitar and keys read more

Everything they take care of you like a family member. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have live bands and they are very good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to relax and have a cold beer[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

There was only one bartender on duty and she was way overwhelmed. She had a smile and continued to plug through it until she got some help but you could tell she was a little frazzled. Food was adequate for my hunger, but I wouldn't recommend it. It wasn't that great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a vibe of a sports bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Service was very pleasant. The food was amazing and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere was fun with live entertainment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I Highly recommend. read more

We are from Arizona and flew in to Nashville for work. Decided to drive to Memphis and stopped at this restaurant to try some Cajun food. From the moment we stepped inside we were greeted in the warmest way possible. Kirk, our server, was amazing! We had a lot of questions about the menu and he answered all our questions with enthusiasm and a smile. He really took care of us. Service was impeccable and the food was good too! read more

We happened upon Redbone's Grill and Bar as we were passing through. Delicious food and great service! I had the fried catfish and also gumbo; another person in our group had a burger and said it was very good! Kirk was our server and was attentive and very personable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]An added bonus was that a band started performing part way through our time there, which we really enjoyed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend and can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in Jackson! read more

We ate there for the first time this past Monday. Kirk was a great waiter. The Monday lunch special was good but the Catfish Atchafalaya was Superb. We both decided that we will be back and we will get the catfish atchafalaya and possibly try another cajun dish. read more

Had the red beans & rice, recommended by waitress, and it was meh at best. Not a lot of flavors like I'm used to. I started to go with burger and should have stayed with that option. The local beer was good, Hub City Rivalry read more

The sweet pregnant server was as funny as she was good at service. Food was excellent! Enjoyed and would recommend

Absolutely outstanding. Had the gumbo to start with my main course the Cajun Ribeye and Maque choux as my side. The food was amazing. Kirk E my server was the coolest dude in the place and made for a good time. I can not recommend this place enough and think I will he trying to go down the menu checking each item off until I find something I don't like, which I don't see happening anytime soon!!! read more

We stopped on a roadtrip from Little Rock AR to Murfreesboro TN. We got hungry and thought we'd give it a try. I had the funky chicken sandwich. Huge!!! It comes with fries too. Hubby had the fried catfish, turnip greens and sweet potato. You will not be disappointed. read more

Not great. Not terrible, but generally and mildly disappointing. Not to be an obnoxious Gulf Coaster, but it's about what you'd expect from a Gulf Coast seafood restaurant that's this far inland and doesn't charge enough to get top ingredients or chefs. Everything is just okay, but we're talking Cajun seafood so "just okay" is never enough. Cajun seafood should be fresh, vibrant, spicy, and exciting. This food is none of those things. read more

Our first time here!!! Delicious food and Gracie was a wonderful server!!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Good service but food was average at best. Crab cakes were cold, husband's shrimp po' boy was good he said. Blue Suede Fries were overly microwaved and dried out and stuck to plate. Not sure we will be back at the price of things. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Love this place but stopped today for a couple drinks and had to listen to this Kitchen worker with tattoos yelling F-bombs about some plane trip he had coming up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Heard the F-word many times from this guy and he was loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This is totally inappropriate conduct for a public work place. read more

Great food , coldest beer any where in the country!! Great staff and the manager Chris is a good guy, not Gona hold him being in the coast guard against him . But thank you for your boating service read more

Ate at Redbone's today and our server "Kirk" was excellent! I took my wife there for her birthday and Kirk was intertwining, professional and approachable. Very knowledgeable about all the menu items. We ordered some " starters" which were very delicious; fried avocado with pico de gallo drizzled with a sauce ( so darn good!), then a crawfish dip and shrimp - all were so good, flavorful! Then our main dish was the shrimp & grits........ Devine! So much flavor, great sauce and lots of shrimp, what an excellent dish! You can not do wrong!! Great place to sit, have a drink and enjoy some great food. Ask for Kirk, Capt. Kirk, and he'll take care of you! The real raging Cajun.....from Nova Scotia! read more

Had the WORST late lunch at Redbone. Went to join friends who had already ordered, and when we asked for menus, the server was visibly annoyed. Our server was rude from that point on, the few times she would come to our table. Our food took forever to come, was cold when it finally arrived and we had to stand up from our table to get our check. We could have walked out without paying and no one would have known. When I asked for our check, the manager asked how our meal was and I said " terrible". She shrugged her shoulders and said "sorry". The restaurant was NOT busy...servers were standing around talking. There are lots of great places to eat in Jackson....skip Redbone. read more

First time visit. We were seated and waited on promptly. Another waitress checked to make sure we had been waited on when we were waiting on our drinks. I wish I could remember our waitress' name. She was excellent and training a new server. Our glasses were kept full. They checked on us frequently. The food was very good. We stay in Jackson once or twice a year while traveling and will definitely return to Redbone's. read more

Typical bar food with a Cajun twist. Got the blackened red fish. It was fine. About what you'd expect. Service was great. Beer cold enough.

We've been here twice now. Love the atmosphere with the live band, food is wonderful, and the servers very attentive!

The daily lunches are great. Little diff than the regular menu but still good. I did not like the Rotel spaghetti or the red beans and rice but the steak sandwich is well worth a try. Plus the shrimp Po boy was really good. read more

Really nice atmosphere and our food was great. Did not wait long to be seated, and our waiter Captain Kirk, is the man. He is very professional, but most of all pleasant person. We will definitely come back again.... read more

As a born and raised New Orleans native this place is not good. The food was very bland, nothing like true new Orleans flavors, in essence I give 1 star and an ewwwww read more

Great food. Great service. Great drinks. Great music, a guy was playing solo on a Thursday night. Great Atmosphere. All around it was excellent. My date approved as well. read more
