Restaurants in Hattiesburg

“Came on Friday night. Placed reservation for 7 pm at 6:40 pm. Walked in and was quickly seated. Atmosphere was great. Not loud. Floor was a bit sticky. Ordered ribeye. I just wished it was still a bit hot when served. Waitress was very kind and knowledgeable”

“Insane how moist and delicious these cookies are! Always made with love & creativity. They bring me so much joy when I see them, I instantly smile at how beautiful they look and taste!! I love CRUMBL!”

“There’s not many things I’d do for a Klondike Bar, but I’d risk it in a winter storm for any of their biscuits! Love this place ❤️”

“I was getting my birthday drink. Thank goodness they allowed for you to get it even after your birthday. And it was drink and size of choice. They are wonderful!! Thank you!!”

“Freshly squeezed juice and açaí bowls”

“Such a cute place! Enjoyed my experience 10/10. We got the mini beignets with the buttercream sauce 🤤🤤🤤”

“10/10 recommend the food, staff, and atmosphere. We love coming here multiple times a week. The Birria is amazing”

“Great food, service & atmosphere!!”

“I eat here regularly, especially on Tuesday as their Hamburger Steak and gravy is delicious. Today I was too busy at work to sit down and eat. I called in an order and they charged me a 10% gratuity for a to-go order. I honestly believe they should have just went up on the prices a $1 on the daily menu specials then to add gratuity when they advertise a certain price. If not for that they would have a 5 star rating because the food is delicious and the service when dining-in is great.”

“The overall experience is great honestly. The atmosphere is cozy and very comfortable. So far, I've called my sushi in for takeout,but the waiting area is amazing. The couch is so comfortable and the ambiance of the room is very relaxing and cozy! The food is done in a reasonable time and is served fresh and cooked to order! We absolutely love the steak rolls and they do not disappoint!!! 10 out of 10 the taste is fantastic! I have had a few rolls that weren't rolled perfectly, but the taste was not lacking at all!”

“The food is amazing!!!! So flavorful! The service is very friendly!!! I’d recommend to everyone to eat here, you will NOT be disappointed!”

“Veteran owned. The staff is amazing and the prices are quite fair. The bear is varied and good. Try the Hefeweisen.The axe lanes and axes are well maintained.Paking may be a little weird buy parking behind the building or the other side of Longleaf Trace should do the trick. An excellent place dor parties or relaxing after shift or on a night off. Karaoke is available.”

“The rolls are pretty good and the service is relatively quick. Every time i've been there the restaurant doesn't have very many people in it so it's a relaxed atmosphere.”

“Just had the best dinner experience at this Olive Garden. My waitress was Saje, and she is incredible at her job! I never had to look around for her; my drink was never empty; and she had a great attitude. Super kind.
I ordered the sirloin and it was absolutely fantastic. Really juicy and tender.”

“We ordered the tuna tataki, sweetheart roll, sunrise roll, cowboy and super amazing rolls. wish I had taken photos before we attacked them because they were beautiful... and everything was delicious!! Service was fast and the ingredients were quality and fresh. HIGHLY recommend, we will be back!!”

“Love the layout of this bar but the drinks leave much to be desired. I tried 3 different drinks and none were up to par. Would be better if they used glasses instead of plastic cups. The performance was good but the stage is too dark and the spotlight is too small, so the artists were performing under dim light for much of the time. But overall, this is a good bar for Hattiesburg. I was in town to visit so I’m a bit pickier since I’m used to Atlanta. EJ & Elsie did a great job!”

“awesome service great place to go”

“Friendliness and good food!!”

“Pho Noodles with beef and chicken... and tofu. Coconut Bubble tea with mango pearls (the pearls... yum)

Friendly staff.

“Awesome food and the service was incredible”

“My family and I flew into town from Los Angeles on 11/11/2021 and the next morning we decided grab a bite to eat at lthe Waffle House, in Hattiesburg, MS location 235. Our only expectation was to eat good food in a timely manner. However. The experience we received was hands down perhaps the best sservice we have ever recieved from iut of town. The food was just what I expected . However, the service and crew was above our expectation. They were prompt, engaging, polite, relatable and more. Our 2 year old who at times can be off and on about her eating choices determined this day she was only interested in bacon. She then adked for chips and i went to the car to get a bag of Gold Fish. Shebthen begin to song the world renowned jingle, " Baby Shark". This led to me singing along with her and soon after several other employees began doing the same. Someone began to play the actual song and from just about the whole resturant was singing along of clirse causing my daughter to become ecstatic and full of joy as she danced! This made my baby girl's day and my family as well. I must say that it's service like this that you miss when its not there and surley one you want to take with you wherever you go! If i had to sum the experience up using a simple phrase it would be one drawn from the 80's television show, Cheers! Because whether people say it or not, "Sometime, you wanna go where everybody knows your name and they're always glad yoylu came! To our server Anggela & Jerry Thank you”

“This Sonics is my go to, but the Sonics in Collins, MS on Hwy. 49 is garbage. The food is poorly prepared, the workers are filthy, and the general manager and managers cannot handle their employees and they're unprofessional.”

“​You really can’t beat the curly fries and a classic Beef 'n Cheddar when you want comfort food. That said, the drive-thru is usually pretty slow and prices have gotten steep. A solid 4 stars, also the milkshakes are pretty good!”

“when I received my order thru door dash I was missing items and when I contacted Krystals and ask to speak with manager about it the woman ask me what it was about I told her she gone tell me that's not their problem I had to contact door dash about it even worse I paid OVER $50 FOR THIS ORDER!!! WILL NEVER use this Krystal's again!!!! the pic is a screenshot of the convo with the doordasher she even tried to tell them the order was wrong and they REFUSED to fix it!!!!”

“By far the BEST coffee shop around. Hands down. Excellent service from the friendly staff. Best, strong, frappes in town. A MUST have. You will be hooked.”

“The food was so good. Our server was very sweet. It was my husband and my first time there but so worth it. We will definitely be back and telling others about the place.”

“Great service!! Always a good experience with the staff”

“Y’all might wanna get this sweet lady some help that’s here by herself but she is doing an amazing job!”

“Breakfast, catfish and Grits, with a Biscuit and some orange juice.. huuu... man it was good.”

“Delicious birria pizza and elote! Great prices. Friendly staff. On time for the ETA of a pick up to go order.”

“We went up to the June Jam with 9 bands ! This is the best venue we've been to in a long time. The hospitality was second to none and Janet the owner is a fantastic lady that showed us a great time ! We will watch this venue and me and my friends will be going back for sure oh the food is awesome too! We will be there for The June Jam in 2026 you can bet if you missed this one you better not miss the next one ! 9 bands on 2 bandstands!!! See y'all net year!”

“Placed my order online. Food was cooked as requested. They have a wide variety of choices on their menu. I orderd the whole catfish (most places only do fiillets). It DIDN'T have the muddy taste at all, which is usually a big issue. No complaints. Will most definitely order there again.”

“The Salad Station in Midtown, Hattiesburg, is a fantastic spot for anyone craving fresh and healthy options. Their salads are always made with crisp, vibrant ingredients that taste incredibly fresh. The variety of toppings and dressings lets you customize your meal just the way you like it. The staff are friendly and efficient, making the experience quick and pleasant. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or a light dinner, Salad Station Midtown is a reliable choice that keeps you coming back for more.”

“I’m afraid I could not express how much I’ve enjoyed eating at GrateFull Soul the food is great the people is friendly,caring,and very polite. And they offer plenty varieties of food for us picky eaters who are spoilt I always get just what I want and no sass. Thank you all very much”

“First time visiting Southern Seafood and we couldn't have been more satisfied with the freshness of the food, the flavor, the fries were on point (so crunchy), the friendly service and the cleanliness of the restaurant. The food portion was more than enough. They have severaI southern sides to choose from Drinks: I chose that Southern SWEET Tea, and it was just as I like it. This place did not disappoint and we will be back. PS we bought fresh catfish fillets and shrimp, from their market, to cook up at home.”

It takes a minute to come out but it was so worth the wait. The guy up front was sweet as could be. Their toast was also really good and buttery.”

She was so patient and so kind and so precious in every way. I am all about local coffee shops but no one can match their personal service and the coffee is amazing too. The granita is my go to. Amazing every time.”

“We recently ate lunch at Tabella. I had the lighter meal of lemon pepper chicken, garlic green beans and garlic potatoes. The chicken was a thin piece of breast that had been grilled which is what I like but it was overcooked resulting in it being dry. The green beans were undercooked. The potatoes were excellent as was the service. This won't stop us from eating at Tabella in the future but it wasn't what we have come to expect when eating there.”

“Delicious food with big servings. Nice and hospitable service!”

“I eat here regularly, especially on Tuesday as their Hamburger Steak and gravy is delicious. Today I was too busy at work to sit down and eat.

“Been there twice! Fried Catfish was Xcellent! Fried Pork chop Xcelent! Healthy Portions! Worth Every Penny!”

“The music is good, but they play it way too loud. The place gets very crowded and there is limited seating. They do have a sign by the DJ booth that says no drinks on the dance floor, but I continuosly saw people taking their drinks and cigarettes on the dance floor. The dance floor is a good size, but needs to be sanded down smooth because now it is uneven and is a trip hazard. For some reason there are regularly 6 or more people moving in and out of the bar/grill area. ???”

outstanding!!”

“Stop at this location almost every other day. Super friendly staff and nostalgic songs. Celeste added a spark to my morning and always has the cutest nails!! Definitely recommend.”

“Great food, some of the better Mexican to be found in Hattiesburg.
Wish tacos would of had wraps toasted on grill but they are hand made and typically don't when are fresh made corn ones.”

“The BEST!! Super yummy!! Thank you!!”

“Don’t cut yourself short and not try this place because you’re intimidated by the unknown! The food is fresh! The flavors are VIBRANT and authentic. Quick service, great portions. I could keep going on and on, but I will for sure keep going back!”

“Pleasantly pleased with service & food today at The Harbor Grill today. came in with son and asked waitress and bartender their opinion on what we should order. Knowledgeable of their menu. As a food service business provider too, I wanted to sample alot. For appetizer we order the Rotel Fries and entre the fried Chicken with collard greens and Mac & cheese. All gracefully prepared hot and seasoned. Took a little time yet understanding given as they was not in peak service hour so fresh food takes time. We give our experience an A today 👌👌”

“I went there with my friends today, and we made friends with a very, very awesome employee named Jon. He is the best person ever. We love him so much. Please give him a raise.”

“This is a gift shop with coffee and flowers. I didn't see a place to sit ? So many cute gift choices with a spiritual vibe. I couldn't resist Cosmic Dreams Sleep masks!”

“I'll Start with the Pro's First and I only did the BBQ portion

This place is very clean, food line, tables, floors everything I saw was very clean which is nice. The Interior Design was nice and pleasing. They were well stocked on all the food and you have a lot of options for the price you pay. Food quality is pretty decent. Coming here with a group if this is your normal go to place or even your first time with KBBQ you shouldn't be disappointed. Plenty of veggies, sides, appetizers, even some precooked foods like noodles, chicken, and fried rice. Several sauces to choose from to dip in. Very comfortable chairs, generous table space.

Cons
If you have had Kbbq before from pretty much anywhere else then this will probably be a letdown. They keep a parchment paper on the grill to cook on. As someone who has had to clean grills at a KBBQ, I get it. Its not fun to clean especially during a rush. However, doing so really brought down my enjoyment and experience. Normally I can cook beef brisket super quick, within 2-3 minutes max but instead I am waiting much longer probably 5+ to get it cooked all the way through even longer for the pork. Never cooking on paper before was quite the adjustment and I realized I had undercooked the pork after biting into it. I also like to Sautee my veggies with my meats and I had onions on that grill for about 10 minutes before starting to get good color on them green bell peppers for even longer. I have had KBBQ in Missouri, Louisiana, California, and even in Korea so while it's by no means gross in anyway it's a letdown, if you are experienced with KBBQ you might like it, but I would give it a pass.

TLDR:
First timers, regulars should have no complaints
Veterans to KBBQ - probably skip on this
Did not try the hot pot portion so experience may differ”

“The food is top tier 💃🏽!! 800/10”

“We just at at the Turtle Creek location. The food was excellent. We had bobe in, strips kivers, fish and a corn dog with sides of fries and fried okra. All was fresh and delicious. The service was excellent. The gentleman was very patient and accommodating with myself and my grandsons. I would say that the pieces of chicken are HUGE and the portions were generous, so come hungry!”
