8 Best Salad Restaurants near Laurel

“Just got back. Great food, service, and clean. Reasonable priced. Would recommend pic2. My pic 2 was half green salad, half black Angus sandwich. Outstanding food. Sweet tea is a must.“

“Tucked away in the heart of Laurel, Edgar’s Steakhouse serves up a classic Southern steakhouse experience with a few elevated surprises. On a recent visit, I had the chance to sample a bit of what this local favorite has to offer, and while there were a few minor missteps, the overall experience was satisfying.

I started with the sautéed crab claws, a promising appetizer that showcased fresh Gulf flavor. The claws were generously portioned and sautéed with a bold hand. While the taste was there, a few of the claws were a bit on the tough side, and the dish leaned a little heavy on the onion—just enough to slightly overwhelm the delicate sweetness of the crab. A touch more balance could’ve taken this dish from good to great.

For the entrée, I went with the ribeye burger, paired with steak fries. Simply put, the burger was a highlight. Cooked to absolute perfection, it was juicy, flavorful, and had a wonderfully rich beefiness. The real star here, though, was the bacon jam—sweet, smoky, and just the right amount of indulgent. It added a depth of flavor that elevated the whole bite.

The steak fries, while hearty and crisp, weren’t quite my style. They were thick-cut and golden, but seemed to have stayed in the fryer a bit too long, making them overly crunchy on the outside and edging toward dry inside. That said, fry lovers who enjoy a serious crunch might feel differently.

Final verdict: Edgar’s delivers on its promise of quality meats and hearty Southern flavors. With a few tweaks—particularly in balancing flavors and fine-tuning texture—this could be one of Laurel’s best-kept secrets. The burger alone is worth coming back for.“

“Coffee and food are always perfect! Everything is clean and fast. Pick up orders are always on time and fresh! Best place in town!“

“Best Molcajete I have had period. Michelada was spot on. Have only had one better and that was in Chattanooga. Great experience. Nacho is an amazing person who takes great pride in his food and service. I am writing this review at another Mexican restaurant on the coast, wishing I had driven the two hours to eat at Los Primos instead.“

“This place is an entire vibe! The staff is amazing, the musician last night set the mood perfectly and the steak was DELICIOUS! 10/10 recommend when visiting Laurel.“

“We just ate here for the first time today. Everyone was polite and professional. The chicken strips were a little on the small side but hot, juicy, and fresh. The fries were great, especially when paired with the Zax sauce. The Chicken Strip Tacos with the Chipotle ranch were amazing. We will definitely go back. They do not have dine in but that's no big deal. We often eat on the go anyways.“

“This is the best Chick-Fil-A I have been to. I do not live in Laurel, I am 6 1/2 hours away. I drive through Laurel twice a year. coming back from Round Top, TX. Evey time, I stop at this Chick-Fil-A. The food is always good, warm, fresh. The personnel is always very professional, kind, friendly, helpful. I had the pleasure to meet the owner yesterday. I have to say she is not afraid of rolling up her sleeves. There was a lot of traffic around Chick-Fil-A and she was outside, directing traffic and bringing food to the cars of her customers to make the line flow better and faster. She was doing all this with a beautiful smile. If she remembers me (we talked about antiques at Round Top, TX), I say hi and I congratulate her for a shop so well run.“
