11 Best Southern Restaurants near Clinton

“The food is just delicious. I love the friendly customer service. I eat here sometimes 3x a week“

“If you're anywhere near Clinton, MS, N’Awlins Grill is the place to be for a hearty Creole feast. There's no need to wait for a hostess to seat you upon arrival; just find your own spot and relax. Before you even glance at the menu, you're treated to a delightful surprise: perfectly seasoned potatoes that taste like they're fresh out of a crawfish boil, setting the tone for the flavorful journey ahead.

I decided to dive into their grilled catfish with a loaded baked potato. The catfish was cooked to perfection, with each bite melting in my mouth while delivering that unmistakable Creole punch. The loaded baked potato was just as indulgent, packed with all the fixings that left me struggling to decide which part I enjoyed more. I wrapped up my meal with a slice of key lime pie. My daughter, always the picky eater, was quite happy with her classic kids' meal of chicken tenders and fries, proof that their mastery isn't limited to just Creole staples.

With soulful music filling the air, the vibe at N’Awlins Grill is both comforting and energizing—much like their food. The service was top-notch, quick and friendly, with our piping-hot dishes arriving in no time. If you haven't visited yet, you're missing out on a little slice of Louisiana right here in Mississippi. Definitely put N’Awlins Grill on your must-visit list for an amazing dining experience.“

“The food was delicious. Many options for those watching calories and carbs. The service was excellent. Wonderful atmosphere in historic downtown Clinton. This was our first time eating there. We will definitely come back.“

“I ordered a fried Cajun turkey for thanksgiving and wasn’t impressed it was very dry. It wasn’t till I used a baked turkey juice till I was able to enjoy it. Won’t be wasting $60 again. I’ll bake my own turkey next year.“

“the gentlemen at the register and the ladies in the kitchen are super nice. I wanted some soul food and that's what I got. and it was so good. I also noticed the cleanliness around the back to the kitchen. me my daughter and her dad enjoyed the vibe too. lots of love in that place.“

“The place is a great open space atmosphere. The food is served in vintage looking pie tin pans, which gives you a down home feel. The jalapeño cornbread was a hit. We were a group of 30 as we were gathering after a funeral. So without reservations we overwhelmed the one cook and two servers. But they managed to get us served, slowly but eventually. I recommend COCK OF THE WALK.“

Kuddos to Anthony.
The food is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!
I didn't get the cooks name, but she came out to converse with us.
She's very friendly & a beast in the kitchen!

Don't sleep on her chicken & waffles!
My guest had omelets & they were very impressed!!!

I want to give it 10/10, but it didn't meet my standards with cleanliness. It's okay, but I saw lots of room for improvement in that department.“
