    Heavy pours. Vodka Collins and Vodka Soda.
    Dustin E.

    This is absolutely a dive bar and it is glorious. This is not only the best cheeseburger in Biloxi. It is the best cheeseburger I ever had. The bartender was super friendly and kind. As another reviewer said she was patient with a first timer. I ordered a double for my wife and she told me the pours were heavy and to try a single. She was absolutely correct. You do not need to order a double here. The bloody Mary was excellent! They cooked the burgers and steak right in the bar and it's very cool to be able to watch them. We will definitely return here for the amazing burger and great vibes.

    Project Lounge seriously nailed it. The cheeseburgers are next-level--juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right with that classic, no-frills flavor that reminds you why a good burger doesn't need to be complicated. Every bite hits. Fresh toppings, melted cheese, and a bun that actually holds up... it's the kind of burger you think about after you leave. And the drinks? Equally on point. Strong, smooth, and balanced--nothing watered down, nothing rushed. Whether you're grabbing a cold beer or a mixed drink, they know exactly what they're doing behind the bar. Laid-back atmosphere, good vibes, great food, and solid drinks--Project Lounge is one of those spots that keeps you coming back. If you're in Biloxi and craving a real cheeseburger and a proper drink, this place is a must.

    You ever hear "looks can be deceiving?" This place is the definition. This is home to the best burger in Biloxi, maybe the state of MS or even the US. No fries needed just a bag of chips, your drink of choice and smoke filled air for the ambience. You won't regret it. I'm from DC and I still talk about this burger

    Whenever I visit a new place, I always like to ask what local's like and all arrows pointed to this spot. It definitely didn't disappoint as it's filled with a great bar energy in its dimly lit environment. It is also open really late and if you want to keep the party going or call it a night after, this is your spot. The service was great as we sat at the bar and was greeted by one of the sister owners I believe. We came here specifically for their well known burgers but we also had drinks while we waited. She was super nice as us non locals stick out like sore thumbs. It was definitely a great memory that I unforgettably forgot due to the intoxication level we were at this point. But I do remember the burgers were really amazing that we even decided to buy a shirt to commemorate our visit there.

    Nice lounge with local favorite. Love the burger and fries delicious. Service was fast for ordering Togo.

    Amazing light and decor

    Staying locally, we asked the clerk of the hotel where ( on Thanksgiving Day) we could go have a drink. He suggested The Project Lounge. It was literally minutes away. He described it as a "local hole in the wall". When we arrived, the building was very small. Our expectations were not very high. You could hear what sounded like rap music playing before we opened the door. We were hesitant as this is not our jam at all. The first thing we noticed was the lack of lights. The entire place is very dim. This did not bother us in the least, just surprising. It was kinda of calming and cool . Much to our liking, there were plenty of tables to sit at and a long bar that had several people sitting and laughing! The bartender greeted us immediately as we sat at the bar. This place turned out to be epic! People from all walks of life came and went in the two hours we were there. The food oh the food- it seems everyone came for their Thanksgiving because the gentleman cooking those burgers, tuna burgers and other delightful smelling items never stopped- well, only to make eye contact in a cool sorta smooth way! Our only complaint was the music. Too much rap for our liking. Even with the younger people that came in from the lock airbase, seems everyone starting moving and tapping their feet when dance music from the 80's and 90's came on. I wished smoking wasn't allowed. But , it would not keep me from visiting this local hotspot with their fantastic crew and amazing decor! Just lessen options on the rap! Oh and cash only!

I ordered the Rum Punch for $4.50, and my husband grabbed a cold beer for just $2, which made the evening feel fun right from the start. For dinner, I ordered the Redfish Elote, and it was absolutely incredible. The blackened redfish was perfectly seasoned and served with zucchini, squash, and amazing potatoes, all covered in a rich Cajun cream sauce. It was topped with tender shrimp, and every bite was out of this world. My husband went with a fully loaded cheeseburger piled high with all the toppings--classic, hearty, and exactly what he wanted. The whole vibe was exciting and tropical. Sitting outside with my Rum Punch, looking out over the Gulf with the sun shining, I felt like I was right back in the islands. Both our waitress and the hostess were fantastic--fun, vibrant, full of jokes, and genuinely welcoming. They made the experience even better. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. I highly recommend Shaggy's in Biloxi for great food, great drinks, and great energy.

    Taranto's has been a Mississippi gulf coast staple for many years. Ask anyone who has the best…read morecrawfish down here and there's a solid chance their name will come up. They also do amazing shrimp and other seafood. This location is off the beaten path but easy to find due to close proximity to the Interstate. Parking is gravel lot so you just fit your vehicle where you can. Usually if you can find a space, there will be a table open so keep that in mind if you think it might be too busy and you don't want to wait. In addition to the great stuff like boiled shrimp or crawfish, they also have wonderful poboys that are packed with whatever you want on them. I opted for grilled shrimp on my last visit, but fried shrimp is great as well. If you order an optional side, you will get plenty like onion rings, fried okra, or fries. They also have daily specials like shrimp or catfish baskets, and currently on Saturdays you can get a pound of royal reds with potatoes and corn for roughly twenty bucks. Royal reds are a premium kind of deep sea shrimp that are more like lobster and very meaty. I highly recommend trying them if you've only ever had regular gulf shrimp before. Service here is always good because the place is small and they keep it well-staffed. Waitresses will keep your drinks filled constantly and they pay attention well. You won't be ignored here, so service is quick and the food comes out fast. Definitely give this place a try.

They had homemade tartar sauce she was just very obsessed with. The kids chicken strips were good portions for the price and tasted pretty good. On the flip side, I didn't really LOVE my swamp dog. The hot dog itself was lukewarm and I wasn't terribly impressed with the sauce on it. I did like the idea of it being on French bread. I'd love to see them either change up the sauce's ingredients or give chili a try. The French fries were pretty underseasoned and some of them tasted a little undercooked to me. As well seasoned as the fish and chicken were, I was a bit surprised by this. All 3 staff members were really wonderful. We were the only customers as we got there right after they opened. We were in and out very quickly and they were very sweet to our young children. It's got a great view on the balcony on the water. You'd expect the inside to be more dive bar than not but I was pretty pleased with how clean the inside was, especially the bathrooms! My only other complaint would be the lack of a drink menu. I'd love to see them add one, especially drink specials based on the location on the water. A lot of potential with that there. I'd say I'd give the experience a 3.5 out of 4 because of the hot dog and fries. However, I'll give it a 4 because they nailed everything else. I'll give it another visit sometime soon and order other food to see if an updated review could move the needle up or down.
