8 Best Southern Restaurants near Long Beach

“We went for our 22nd anniversary and this small restaurant, on a quiet Saturday late afternoon, was perfect. We had great service. The food was creative and delicious. It started with delicious focaccia bread and ended with goat cheese cheesecake with pomegranate and pear. We will definitely make the drive again.“

“It seems good service is so rare lately; I believe our waiter’s name was Connor. He was great! The food was amazing. I will be back for eggplant fries!“

“The best snowballs hands down. 10 out of 10!😋“

“Hattiesburg location, Food was amazing, staff super friendly and inviting. 10/10 recommend“

“Love Chicken Salad chick. Dependable, no matter the location. This was my first time using the drive through. Unexpectedly quick. I've never had a shorter wait, anywhere.

Vegetarian options: Three options that can go with the salad, sandwich, scoop with crackers, or a container to take home. Also, almost all the sides.“

“Our first visit and wow was it great! Everything was top notch, starting with ample parking. We were seated quickly and could barely decide what we wanted to eat because everything looked so good! We got a combo platter of oysters-all of them delicious but the Orleans is our new favorite. I had the red fish and hubby had stuffed portabellas. The servings are quite large and they have unique sides options. Do yourself a favor and get the sweet potatoe crème brûlée. The most delicious thing on the menu, we ate it as our dessert! Our server Tim was absolutely the best. We can’t wait to go back!“

“Fantastic! Under new ownership it is back the way it started. Great staff, Erin treated us like we were VIP's. Food was exceptional! Atmosphere fun and inviting. I ordered the lunch special, seafood platter. Hot, plentiful and delicious. I will be back and please, tell everyone they will miss out on a great place if they do not give it a try!“

“We always have a great time dining at Cracker Barrel! And then shopping afterwards in the store“
