    Menu for the evening

    We had a great experience at Vestige. The restaurant is quite small but is quaint, quiet and casual. There were only nine tables and only five were occupied when we were there. The food was exquisite. The menu is fixed. There were a total of seven courses, including a bread course and a course of small dessert bites. Most of the courses were small plates but everything was carefully crafted and quite good. It is not inexpensive ($105 per person plus tax and gratuity), but it was certainly a worthwhile experience. The service was excellent and personal. Great work!

    This is hands down my favorite restaurant. The exquisite food, the service, the drinks, the ambiance. I really cannot say enough about this. This place should be a Michelin star restaurant. I've been to European Michelin that weren't as good. Highly recommend this as it is an experience not just dinner!

    By gulf coast standards, vestige is in a class of its own. It is a very laid back environment even for its fine dining menu. Very friendly and attentive staff. Having lived on the coast before, I can safely say that this menu isn't for everyone so make sure you read the menu first! By national standards, having eaten at several Michelin star restaurants including a few 3 star restaurants, it's not to that level... yet!

    the first course of many. small perfect delicious bites.

    My husband and I enjoyed a dinner here to celebrate our anniversary. Everything was absolutely incredible. The restaurant is in a small adorable house in the main Ocean Springs area. We enjoyed many courses in both had a cocktail and a glass of wine. This is the perfect restaurant for a celebration or special vacation. Highly recommend.

    https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DqgtggLMJ/?mibextid=wwXIfr VESTIGE. The restaurant, in Ocean Springs, Mississippi is small and intimate. Maybe 30 seats. This is almost certainly the very best restaurant on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The tasting menu only food is unique, beautiful, beautifully presented, and delicious. We were absolutely thrilled with the entire experience. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough to justify the wonderful experience of dining here. The chef, Alex Perry, is a genius in the kitchen. The tasting menu varies according to what locally produced ingredients are then available. This is the best dining experience we've ever enjoyed. I would give Vestige 6 stars if that were an option.

    This is my first 5 star review and I would give them 6 if I could. The depth of flavor with each dish they serve is truly outstanding. Each course is unique and delicious. The staff was great and very knowledgeable about each dish and what wine to pair with it, they were also fun to talk too. You could tell they really enjoyed their job. The actual restaurant is an old house and they only have about 9 tables in there so I would recommend getting a reservation. It's an old house and the inside feels very homey and comfortable. I would love to go back and try when they get a new menu. I highly recommend this restaurant it was one of the best meals I've had.

    One of the top 5 dining experiences I have ever had! Intimate setting with excellent food, service and drinks. The menu is creative and every dish is an experience. The waitstaff was knowledgeable and gave good descriptions and suggestions. I know a review mentions small servings- it's plenty of food! I can't wait to visit again.

    Amazing little gem in downtown Ocean Springs. The restaurant has one menu that is fixed (tasting menu). The small front of house staff is both knowledgeable and friendly. The food is of high quality and quite good, their Wagyu beef was the star of the show. I would recommend Vestige if you are looking for a dinning experience and not just another place to eat. The restaurant was also a runner up for "Best Restaurant in the South" from the James Beard foundation and that is quite something in the Culinary World.

    Amazing! Evidently this restaurant has been in Ocean Springs about 8 years. A co-worker mentioned that he and his wife went here a few weeks ago and they highly suggested it. My husband and I decided to take the 30 minute drive from Pass Christian and we are so glad we did! The restaurant itself is a small one room restaurant with few to several tables. It was an Intimate setting, I wouldn't suggest taking a big group. The menu is a set tasting menu for the night. They have an extensive whiskey selection, cocktails, and beer list. Not that many wines by the glass to choose from, but enough. Every single tasting selection brought out was more amazing than the next. The food we were lucky to receive was truly a work of art. The wait staff was extremely attentive and described each dish as they were brought out. The staff even gave suggestions on the best way to enjoy each tasting, whether it was to pick up and eat like a cracker, or to use the spoon to scoop up the delectable sauce. It was truly a one of a kind experience and we can't wait to go back!

    This restaurant deserves a couple of Michelin stars. I know it's difficult with the availability of wines in Mississippi but the Michelin reviewers should take notice of this tiny gem in hip Ocean Springs, MS. We celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary here last night and were star struck/in awe/speechless/grinning. The tasting menu was beyond our wildest dreams. See the menus I attached for more accurate descriptions. Mike was our most gracious host and seated us at the front table in the window overlooking Washington St. We started with a delicious glass of Gonc Canvas Pet-Nat, a sparkling dry Rose from Slovenia...out of this world. Our 1st course was 3 mini bites, 1. sushi of jumbo lump crab & smoked Trout roe, 2. tartlet of grilled mushrooms with a foie gras emulsion and 3. a sake-like beverage that was sweet and mellow. Our 2nd course was a creamy bavarian dish with tiny golden beets and sturgeon caviar. Unbelievable tastes floating on the tongue, so light and spectacular. Course 3 was accompanied by the most wonderful Chablis from France and was tilefish accented with delicate tomatoes. Then came the freshly baked bread course with a garlic butter and a sweet butter. With a glass of Cabernet from Paso Robles we savored the star of the dinner: Course #4, Wagyu beef with black truffles (OMG). The menu describes our dinner so much more eloquently but this is what I remembered. There was a dessert course, too, and every single course was divine. The chef came out to meet us, he was very kind and very young so I expect he will continue to achieve greatness in the world of food. We are so happy he chooses to do this in Mississippi. My advice is to go to Ocean Springs and dine at Vestige, at least once in your life.

We were seated right away (we did call a head of time to give them a heads up about our group size [10], even with the understanding of no reservations and first come first serve). Drinks were ordered and then brought out randomly and just left in the middle of the table, never with the person who ordered. NEVER offered a refill on anything. Not on water, sodas or even alcohol. Food order was placed pretty quickly. Waitress even mentioned that the Beef Debris PoBoy is good in flavor but that it's the most returned and or disappointed menu item when ordered in larger groups (I believe because it's wet). I took her recommendations and ordered 3 side items asking for them all to be together as a meal. Food is delivered and quite a few things were wrong or missing. Burger - missing standard toppings & over cooked to a hockey puck. Several missing items - meals and sides. The food runners were very confused and couldn't even speak when we tried to address the messed up food. Still no drink refills offered and the waitress was gone for so long we couldn't address the missing meals for a while. The food runners never said anything about the issues. Again, I get it, it's Mother's Day, but a suggestion was made (not requested) and then the alternative was incredibly messed up. Little apologies for any of the missing item issues and then the bills were all messy. None of these issues pointed to the kitchen so it's the rare time I don't appreciate an auto gratuity.

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.
