The East of the Mississippi Diner offers a delightful dining experience with its great selection of southern-style cuisine and wonderful customer service. The restaurant is clean, and the food is consistently on point, from the veggie omelettes and turkey bacon to the pancakes, grits, and an array of homestyle dishes. Customers praise the establishment as a true gem in the city, with the waiter being very hospitable and the food being great, including the pancakes as a highlight. The grits, while not to everyone's personal taste, are smooth and creamy, allowing customers to customize them to their liking. The diner is a hole-in-the-wall spot that serves sincere southern food, and it's the kind of place that gives out-of-town customers local street cred. The vegetarian options, such as grits, eggs, hash browns, toast, pancakes, and waffles, are also well-received. Overall, the East of the Mississippi Diner provides a great dining experience with its consistently delicious food and excellent customer service.
