The Tomato Place is a great place! The owner is the nicest and sweetest lady. We stopped here on our road trip as we don't like eating fast food. Three of us ordered some version of a BLT and it was sooo delicious! My son ordered a double bacon cheeseburger and he loved it. Now, the negative, they've ruined all other BLTs for me. The amount of bacon they used, took this very basic American staple, and shot it through the roof. I felt like a queen eating this sandwich. My husband and kids all got delicious smoothies too. The restaurant feels like a country hole in the wall and I LOVED IT. I would absolutely make this a regular stop on my crossing country journeys. read more

Service was nice and friendly. Ambiance is eclectic and everything you want when you find a "hole in the wall" southern place. And the food was great! Daughter loved the fried catfish, my friend green tomato BLT with avocado was delicious and the salad way very vinegar forward, which is how I like it. Be prepared though. There is no AC. Open windows and fans. So, for us Minnesotans, this was a change. It was manageable, but with 100 degree temps outside, we ate fast read more

The ambiance and atmosphere alone are worth the stop. Food was fantastic, fried green tomato BLT was heavenly. All the staff working were kind and helpful, I would definitely return anytime I'm on this road. read more

Wow!!! Such a cute little hole in the wall spot. When you pull up don't be scared of the outside, this place is a southern gem! Mallory is the owners daughter and absolutely makes this place an incredible experience. From her friendly attitude to her great insights she makes you feel like you're right at home. Now to the food, I ordered the fried green tomato BLT with avocado plus a side of fries and baked beans and it was all so good!! I'd highly recommend this place and will be back if in the area! read more

This place is amazing. I have been here several times on y trips to Vicksburg and Port Gibson. It is part roadside shack, vegetable seller, and food spot. Until this last trip I had never had the sandwich that made them famous. Now that I have, I can say that this is a must stop. Heck, it may be worth a drive if you are within an hour or two. The only thing you need to know is that you must order a fried green tomato BLT. In my entire life I have never intentionally ordered a BLT. To me, this is the most dumb idea for a sandwich I have ever heard of. Until now. This is quite possibly one of teh most perfect sandwiches I have ever had. It is so great that I wanted a second when I was done but it definitely would not have been as good later as it was fresh. Amazing. Service was as friendly as one should expect from a roadsie shack such as this. The one worker took our order, made it, delievered it, and gave us some pork rinds with their homemade hot sauce to try. That was a solid thing to do as it made me buy two of their hot sauces stored in old coke bottles. Just come here. Order the BLT. Thank me later. read more

I enjoyed the chicken club on rye. This is not your typical club with cheese, bacon, etc. This club is fresh chopped chicken breast, fresh tomato, lettuce and mayo. It all came together in this beautiful combination, and I have to say it's top 2 sandwiches I've ever had. The tomato was the star of the show. I want one now. O and it's huge. read more

Kitschy in the most inviting and endearing way! We arrived at 6:45 PM and ordered- the kitchen closes an hour before the store closes because they have to clean up etc. The BLT with fried green tomatoes and avocados on toasted wheat bread was fresh and well seasoned. Our side was fried yams which were thick round disks served with their homemade Mississippi Fever sauce. (We bought a big bottle after that - perfect combination of sweet and heat!). We topped off the meal with warm bread pudding. We shopped and looked at the produce - there is nothing fast food about the experience but it IS an unforgettable one! Personable staff and owner. A true small town vegetable stand that serves great food! read more

The sweetest little place! It was absolutely worth the stop. The burger was phenomenal, as was the lemonade. I wish I had tried the BLT!

I had not stopped here in a while but I am glad i did for lunch today. The staff are very friendly and the food is very good. I went with the BLT on wheat with avocado and a side of cheese grits. Outstanding sandwich and the grits were delicious. Good sweet tea. Got a piece of pound cake for the road. Great local place with lots of options. Highly recommend read more

Worth the hype! This place exceeded our expectations, everything was amazing. Even the condiments (jam, hot sauce, dressings) were house made and INCREDIBLE. I loved how the ingredients went straight from the farmers market area to the kitchen. Farm eggs, toast, fries, tomato sandwich, salad, po boy, fruit cup, all were among the best I've had. The fruit cup was generous bursting with fresh seasonal fruits, the classic tomato sandwich was THE best tomato sandwich I've ever eaten (and I eat them often), the salad tasted fresh from the garden and was a great compliment to the meal. Even the scrambled eggs tasted special but I couldn't put my finger on why. And the hot sauce was so so good - unfortunately they were out of bottles to sell because I am going to be dreaming about it for months. My entire road-weary (cranky) family left the tomato place happy and satisfied. I wish we had more time in Vicksburg just to eat at the tomato place a second time. read more

Super little joint on the side of the road. The owners are super friendly and super great cooks. The food is way above the bar. Had a burger that seemed like half a cow, salad was tasty and fresh. The smoothies were tasty and fresh. Boiled peanuts were awesome. We really enjoyed our brief stop. read more

For a place that looks like a shack on the side of the road, it's everything you'd hope from Southern cooking. You might walk through the front door and raise an eyebrow thinking you're walking into a roadside farmer's market with all the fruit lying around and the collection of frozen coffees and smoothies, but don't be fooled, this place has some of the best food you'll find in Vicksburg. I ordered with my team (shoutout Americorps!) and we all got a little something different but everyone LOVED what they got. I ordered a plain catfish po'boy and if that wasn't one of the best po'boys I'd ever had I'd be going to the doctor to double check if my tastebuds were working. The catfish was perfectly crunchy with a really nice seasoning- not too overpowering but enough to add a little extra oomf to every bite. The home fries were really good, it was like they pulled the potatoes straight out of the ground and put them in the frier, well portioned and delicious. I also loved the lemonade, it tasted like the kind of fresh squeezed lemonade you'd make in the backyard. Just perfect. I got a coffee for the next day, the white mocha java which was kind of just alright. It had a very muted flavor with an unpleasantly bitter undertone. I don't think I'd order the coffee again but some of the other people I came with enjoyed theirs so it may have just been that specific batch. Other than that, I really don't love tomatoes, but I LOVE the tomato place, and will be coming back here next time I'm in Vicksburg. read more

Best chicken patty notes ever. Actually delicious. I can't believe it! I also had the fried green tomatoes and orange ade. The fragrant tomatoes were really fresh and high. It was breaded in a garlic crust. read more

This is a ramshackle and colorful produce stand that serves food, focusing on their delicious tomatoes. The service is scattered, the line is disorganized, the seating is limited and the place is hot as hell (in June anyway),but it is still totally worth a visit. Never saw anything like it. The parking is a mess--it was absolutely packed on a weekday. This place seems to be known far and wide. I would give a 5 star for the food (and there will be a wait), it is not 5 stars because of the disorganization. But don't miss it! You will see what a real tomato tastes like, not the colored rocks sold as tomatoes at your supermarket. If you've never had fried green tomatoes, this is the place to try them. read more

A very eclectic restaurant - still looks mostly like the fruit stand it once was. I'd never stop here if it wasn't for the high Yelp ratings. I had the Shrimp PoBoy ($15) and a large smoothie (6), while my wife had a grilled chicken sandwich (10) and fried green tomatoes (6). The tomatoes were rated great, the sandwiches good and the smoothie, just OK (should have been strawberry, but the bananas were overpowering). They have quite a varied menu and probably 20 other smoothies so it might be worth a revisit. read more

Cheese Grits. Let's talk about that. Grits May be a controversial subject, but we are safe here, so let's dive in. Speaking of diving in, if you already love grits, then prepare to BE SEEN! If you are grits-ambivalent, then prepare to start loving grits like those above. If you (think) you don't like grits, well, then you have never tried THESE. So, pull over and give yourself a moment to dive in everybody. Bring a Kleenex to wipe the tears of joy that slip down your cheeks. read more

Off the highway is this little shack cafe. The Fried Green Tomato BLT was recommended by staff. It was good, but nothing special from other BLT's I have had. Try the homemade bread pudding, but ask them to warm it up for you. My son had the bacon double cheese burger. It was massive! He loved it and somehow managed to eat the whole thing. I noticed the cheese was not melted on it. It didn't bother him, but would have me if I was eating it. read more

For starters, the atmosphere is charming eclectic, hole in the wall greenhouse/road side stand/shack. So don't let it throw you off before you give the food a chance. Thank goodness the food came quick. Mom was starting to get antsy, especially after we had to listen to a guy use the restroom. Side note from that experience, eat outside. Mom got a burger, cheese grits, and fried green tomatoes. The burger was a tad dry, but it was hand patted. You can't beat a hand patted burger. The cheese grits were creamy and fluffy like golden orange clouds. I noted at least cheddar and goat cheese in the grits. The fried green tomatoes were battered in corn meal and came with some sort of come back sauce. I had the fried green tomato BLT with avocado. It all tasted so fresh. Crispy lettuce, big fresh tomatoes. They also do to-go orders if you just can't sit a spell and enjoy the atmosphere. If you're passing through town and have never seen the Mississippi River, make sure you head back north to 20 and go west to stop at the welcome center before the bridge to take a gander. A memory I'll never forget- eating fried green tomatoes and watching my mom see the mighty Mississippi for the first time. read more
