We stopped in Laurel on our way back to TX from vacation. We were debating on what to do for dinner…read morein the car and noticed this little food truck...so glad we stopped! I had the BBQ fried chicken sandwich with potato salad, hubs had the Philly Cheesesteak. Our 16 m/o was going to get the corn dogs but they ran out; he really likes shrimp and they were so kind to accommodate to his liking with 5 grilled shrimp (not on the kids menu) and fries. If we're ever in the area again, I would stop and try some more of their items!

It was delicious, but what's really commendable is how personable Chef K is and how great he is in remembering everyone's order without writing it down. I really don't know how to describe the food or the taste of it because it was covered in his special sauce (get that!) But if you're looking to try something different I recommend One Guy! -@mealswithmaka

-- Good Intentions, Poor Execution…read more Let me start by saying I wanted to like Don P's. Friday lunch, only three other tables occupied, and a menu that had real potential. Unfortunately, the experience fell short from the moment we walked in until we tracked someone down just to pay and leave. ________________________________________ First Impressions No greeting. No hostess. We stood at the entrance long enough to feel awkward before walking up to the counter ourselves to ask the basics -- do we seat ourselves? Is there table service? They clearly saw us, but ignored us. Not a great start for a sit-down restaurant. ________________________________________ Atmosphere & Presentation The décor is trying to do something, but it lands closer to glitzy-cheap than charming. More noticeable: the food arrived in takeout containers with plastic utensils, and drinks came in disposable cups. At a table-service restaurant. At lunch. No aprons, no uniforms on the staff -- nothing that signals "we take this seriously." ________________________________________ The Food OG Gumbo -- 3/10 I've driven hours out of my way for great gumbo. This wasn't it. Okra, andouille, chicken, shrimp -- the ingredients were there, but the broth was thin and watery in a way I've genuinely never experienced before. It's not the worst gumbo I've ever had (chain restaurants hold that title), but it was very substandard, a real disappointment. Cajun Pasta -- 2/10 This one was rough. Overcooked pasta, bordering on paste, and salted so aggressively it tasted almost intentional -- like Cajun seasoning AND an extra round of salt was added separately. Nearly inedible, and I don't use that word lightly. ________________________________________ Service Virtually nonexistent. We were ignored for most of the meal and had to physically hunt down our server to get the check -- so we could leave and go eat somewhere else. That about sums it up. ________________________________________ Final Thoughts Don P's isn't without potential -- the concept is there, and the food came out hot and fast. But hot and fast doesn't cover watery gumbo, over-seasoned pasta, disposable everything, and a staff that seemed indifferent to our presence. With some serious attention to food quality, service standards, and basic dining room professionalism, this place could be something. Right now, it's not. Would I return? No. Would I recommend it? Not yet.

5-Star Review Don P…read morein Meridian absolutely delivered! I tried the seafood pasta and it was honestly one of the best dishes I've had in a long time. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was rich and full of flavor, and the seafood was fresh, seasoned just right, and generously portioned. You can tell they put real care into the meal. Every bite had that perfect balance of flavor that makes you stop and say, "yeah... this is it." The service was friendly, the atmosphere was great, and the food came out hot and fast. I'll definitely be back -- and if you go, do yourself a favor and order the seafood pasta. It's worth every penny.
