CHEF PIERRE'S HABANERO PASTA
Janaya M.

Stopped in for lunch when passing through. Got seated right away. Waiter was attentive. Drinks come in very large mason jars. It's an old building in downtown that's kinda industrial looking inside. Nice music playing that's not overly loud. There's a stage in the back corner, probably live singing at night. They service chips and salsa. The chips are seasoned and taste good. Salsa is like a mild picante brand salsa. We got the queso which was super thin and runny. Kinda like a velveeta with rotel in it. My husband got shrimp and grits which he said tasted amazing. It came with a roll and butter. I got the habenero pasta with chicken. The chicken had decent flavor. The pasta was ok. Also came with a roll and butter. Loved the vibe and rate the food as good.

Our server LaLayla was a wonderful server. The food was amazing. I had the chicken fried chicken. The other people in our party had ribs and salmon. Everyone said their food was delicious. They have a stage where people were setting up to play music. They also have a wax museum upstairs that our server took us up to. We had a great time. I highly recommend.

Beautiful industrial looking space that has been transformed into a rustic restaurant with a center stage. I really enjoyed the ambiance, friendly staff and tasty food starting with chips and salsa. I can't wait to come back for more tasty food and a live show!

IRON HORSE One Dining Area

The building is a Jackson Landmark of Years gone by and worth seeing alone even without the great food and great service by Cordell B. The Ambiance is relaxed and entertaining with top notch Live Music. I enjoyed the appetizer sampler platter as well as a fresh garden salad with crumbled bleu cheese, both prepared fresh and were excellent! My main entree was the crab stuffed MS Delta Catfish fillet with a side of steamed broccoli. Nothing disappointed and thanks again to Cordell B. For his top shelf attention to us and his service kindness.

This place is a new go to when I am traveling in town. The service is extremely helpful and they give the best food recommendations due to such a large selection on the menu. The place has live music on the weekends. The chips and salsa were great! The seasoning on the chips are certainly addicting. Jarvis recommended that I get a chicken club and he didn't not disappoint. The chicken was juicy and had a great breading. The pickles on it were chefs kiss. The beverage selection was great and the local selection is tasteful. Price was very reasonable. If you're in the area check them out and ask for Jarvis. His service and recommendations will make you want to come again.

Stayed in the area over night. There are a few good and drink options in the area. We choose Iron Horse. I'm glad we did. The drinks were good. The food was a step up from typical bar food. The waiters were pretty cool. The vibe is very bar - loud and fun!

NAVAJO CHICKEN

Found this place while in town visiting. It's in a very cool building. The staff was very welcoming from the hostess to our waitress. Another waitress even checked on us to see if we were ok. We were told that they do live music starting on Thursdays which we missed but I wouldn't mind coming back. The complimentary tortilla chips were seasoned. I never had any like these but I couldn't stop eating them. It didn't take long for our food to arrive. I ordered lemonade and water not realizing how large the glasses were. I could've just had one drink. I really enjoyed the food and wouldn't mind returning.

Bloody Mary
Leslie T.

We enjoyed our dinner and found everything to be delicious! This is really a great place to experience Mississippi food and music. So many food options and holiday drink concoctions ! We kept it traditional and ordered bloody Mary's, spicy and salty with four large olives! I had the Tres Carnes(wings, ribs, shrimp) and a sweet potato! The bbq ribs were my favorite, Mississippi style, smoky and Caramelized sauce.

I came for a large party birthday dinner. The private dining area was very quaint and just enough space for us to be secluded from the main dining but large enough for us to mingle and enjoy our dinner. Even with it being a large party, the food came out quick, hot and delicious. I ordered the habanero shrimp pasta with extra sauce. The servers were fun loving and organized. People arrived at different times and they were still able to keep up with the orders and food placement. I have been here several times and one thing I love is they change the menu every six months; so you never get exhausted from the same menu. Definitely recommend for large party dinners.

Catfish! The macaroni was good, but the beans were way too greasy/oily.

Fantastic experience today! I came for lunch with my best friend, and we both enjoyed it so much. Our server, Tawanta, was THE BEST! She was very friendly, attentive, and fun to talk to! :) I got the catfish and loved it, and my friend got the porkchop lunch special. She liked hers too! We finished it off with the "Chef Pierre's Dessert Trio". It had a small portion of 3 of their best desserts: praline cheesecake, brownie, and bread pudding. Loved it all and can't wait to come back!

This was our first time here. We live in Mexico and we're looking for some authentic Mexican food…read more My wife got steak milanesa, my daughter got carne asada tacos and I got Chilaquiles con pollo en salsa verde. The food was good and man was it done quickly. The waitstaff was very friendly. The only criticisms I have are: 1) I wish they had some other meat options besides beef, chicken and pork. What I mean is that for most authentic Mexican restaurants you might find beef tongue (lengua), tripa (stomach or intestines), chorizo or even pastor (a spicy marinaded pork) especially available for tacos. 2) When the bill came every food item we order the price was increased by a dollar. When I asked our waiter about this he explained that with the prices of meat and other items increasing recently they had to add a $1.00 to every food item. Understandable, but the only place this was conveyed was on a small hand written sign that you could barely read in the somewhat dark entrance way. I think it would be wiser for them to communicate this by placing some sort of sign at every table or a small note on the front of every menu (if they are not going to actually change the prices IN the menu. Again, great STAFF and SERVICE!

I would absolutely not recommend nor come back to this place, I ordered a drink and it took 40 min…read moreafter i reminded them again of my drink, 40 min attending other people and not coming to my table again after brining me chips only
