10 Best Southern Restaurants in Jackson

“Perfect place for a family or friend dinner out! We had a last family dinner here before my oldest went off to college and received the royal treatment! Highly recommend! And Lily is the best! 🫶🏻“

“Absolutely loved everything I ate here. The oysters were priced super reasonably and were fresh and delicious. I got the Cajun pasta and was surprised by the depth of flavor. Service and atmosphere were both perfect when we stopped in around lunchtime and the food came out quick. If we are ever passing through again will definitely swing back by.“

“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 meatloaf sandwich was delicious! Love all the paintings on the wall. Great atmosphere!“

“I was surprised that restaurant that had a dress code and a waiting list a mile long had such a meh, Sunday brunch menu.

We had a reservation and still waited 20 minutes or more.

It was noisy to the point of yelling across the table to he heard or not speaking at all.

My party was seated next to the private function room where every time someone exited, I was hit with the door.

All in all, I was unimpressed with the body, over priced, restaurant“

“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.“

“The food was awesome. The staff is very friendly and down to earth. 10/10 recommend!“

“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.“

“The srvc is superb!
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.“
