I have never been a rib eater due to being on a bone and fatty meat but this place has changed me. I love their ribs!!! So tender and juicy! You can order the ribs only or with two sides for the same price so I get the sides. Love the fried okra! Friendly customer service. If you have not tried this place you will not be sorry for stopping in. Enjoy!

Must eat at restaurant in Laurel! I was visiting Laurel for a girls trip and just checked in to the…read moreAirbnb and we were starving. Yelp led us to The Loft and thank goodness we got there about 10 minutes before open because there was already a line down the sidewalk. We got in line and were seated right when the doors opened for dinner. I enjoyed the interior of the restaurant. It had a rustic vibe and a man playing the guitar and singing. The music was great but wished he was a little bit louder. The service was good and were in and out within about 1 hour and 15 minutes for dinner. I started with a cocktail - Stormy Laurel. I'm a suckered for any drink with elderflower and it was light and refreshing. The food was delicious! The house side salad was huge and the croutons were so good. I like that they provided plenty of salad dressing. I ordered the fried shrimp dinner with the loaded potato casserole. The shrimp were massive, there were so many, and they were seasoned well and breaded just the right amount. The potato casserole was yummy and had a slight kick which I appreciated. We also ordered the bread pudding for dessert. I liked the white chocolate chips throughout. Come here for a solid meal! I loved the food and atmosphere. I thought there were plenty of options on the menu and everything was priced well.

This is a new joint that I was told has only been open a few weeks. They are located right in the…read moresmall downtown area of Ellisville, MS. My Momma had eaten here before and she reported she liked the pork ribs she ate. During her second visit and my initial visit I sampled the brisket plate and got the sides of sweet potatoes along with the mac & cheese. Now for my part I found the brisket moist although lacking in any BBQ smoke flavor and the sweet potatoes were alright. The BBQ sauce here is of the sweet variety and it was an OK version of a sweet sauce. So after some deliberation Momma decided to get the burger with sides of baked beans along with the mac and cheese. Well Momma was 100% not happy with her burger and she didn't even finish it... Just looking at the burger it appeared quite pathetic and weak as it had the beef patty thickness about the same as a generic McDonald's burger. Momma took about three bites and gave up as she said "this has to have been a pre-made generic beef patty they bought!" To add insult to injury they have a huge sign on the front of the building here that says "BURGERS" so they really need to upgrade their burger game here! So at the the conclusion of our meal both Momma and I agreed the mac & cheese was certainly lacking in the cheese department so we wouldn't recommend ordering that as a side item. Overall my brisket was alright while it would absolutely never win any BBQ competition. To my taste the food was below average for the most part other than most people seem to really love the pork ribs here which seems to be an area they consistently do well with at this joint (I don't eat pork so I have no opinion on the pork ribs). For the general area I will rank this spot a three star but in places with more BBQ options this spot would be two star joint or in BBQ Mecca places like Austin, TX a one star. Another small item of consternation to me here is they didn't have any lemon for my iced tea which so far has been a consistent occurrence in this area at the restaurants I've eaten at which just makes zero sense to me? The folks working here were nice and they did seem to draw a decent lunch crowd. So it generally seems plenty of folks like this place and my taste is certainly different from others tastes so obviously plenty of others seem to enjoy eating here which is fine. Remember to like what you like and I will too along with always remembering we all have different tastes!

While the signs outside mention BBQ (they do sell ribs only) they primarily serve fried seafood here. It was lunch on a Friday before Christmas and I ordered the seafood platter for $11. It came out in about 10 minutes (see pic). It was a nice sized amount of food that included fish, shrimp, stuffed crab, hush puppies, fries and cole slaw. It was a good meal that I enjoyed. I believe this is a good place to go for fried seafood at reasonable prices. I would like to try their BBQ sometime but I don't like ribs and that's all they serve. Counter service inside was friendly and helpful.
