14 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.“

It went down hill a few years back but they have new management and I believe ownership and they have done a remarkable job!

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.“

“I’ve been here a few times. As long as it’s not packed out, the food and drinks come fast. Of course, more people longer wait times. Came for a bday brunch. I got salmon breakfast. It was cooked a lil too long for my liking but other than that I have no complaints! The music was nice, not too young of a vibe. The inside is clean and stuff is friendly.“
