Restaurants near University

“I stopped in for breakfast this morning, and I must say it was a pleasant experience all the way around. I ordered the good little breakfast. I had crispy bacon 🥓, eggs 🍳 scrambled with cheese 🧀, cheese grits, and a biscuit with apricot jelly. To drink I had a coffee ☕️. In fact I had about four cups. All of the food was good. I requested crispy bacon, and they nailed it. The cheese grits were a bit mediocre, as it was just plain grits with shredded cheese on top. I prefer grits that are creamy, but these were a good average grit. I would have expected them to use a little heavy cream when cooking them. My waitress was friendly, however Jayla, the other waitress working, was very friendly and talkative. She is a recent graduate from the University. A talkative employee gives an old time diner feel to me. It’s something that is hard to find nowadays. The place was full, but my waitress was very attentive. She was quick to refill my coffee ☕️. Check this place out if you want good food and great service.”

“Chicken fingers tastes really good ? . Depending on the time, Might have to wait in line for a bit. Friendly staff.Anyone can eat over there. Not only for students. However it will be hard to find visitors parking nearby.”

“Once you side eye them into giving you a bit more it's excellent panda express. Their orange chicken is crispy and spiced perfectly. We'd love to do a commercial soon”

“Excellent customer service, amazing food, and very nice atmosphere. Marshall was top tier thank you for making my birthday experience a memorable one. #gohottytoddy first time in Oxford”

“Great restaurant on the Square!”

“Life as I know it will not be the same. I got a cheeseburger from here today, and it was incredible. Cooked to order, huge yummy hand-patted beef and dressed like I asked for. The bun was nice and warm, and the fries were crispy and delicious. The guys behind the counter were polite and seemed like they enjoyed their work. In other words, I didn't mess up their day by being a customer. I will be returning again and again.”

“Fine food and service. Rather loud and congested though”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Food ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Flavor ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Spice ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Beverages ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Knowledge of menu⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We enjoyed a late lunch here today. Our party enjoyed, a Shrimp Chimichanga (HUGE)topped with queso, sides; rice & refried beans, lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. Another person fell in love with their Pollo Verde (shredded chicken with the BEST green sauce) Enchiladas, served with rice. My plate was amazing Street Tacos (3)fish corn tortillas cooked to perfection, grilled steak, topped with fresh chopped onions, and cilantro. The salsa served with these has an amazing blend of spice and flavor (if you do not like spice (warm heat) taste before adding to your tacos), this plate also had blanco queso (white melted cheese) for dipping. It's best to miss lunch and go for the dinner. The plates are perfect sized and delicious. Our new favorite find yet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Very friendly and made a tea I drink in my hometown! ❤️”

“I have eaten at Southern Coop for years. Saturday night, after the biggest football game of the season, a friend and I were so hungry that I introduced her to Southern Coop. This was my first time at the new location. All I can say is it’s awesome from the front door to leaving. The girls at the register are very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The management/owners are visible and attentive, making sure the place runs smoothly. Go see them!”

“Our meals were stellar. Everything was prepared to perfection. We'll be going back. Such a great addition to our local restaurants!”

“Large group for graduation, food & service was outstanding!”

“My first visit happened to coincide with Parents Weekend at Ole Miss. The wait time was excruciating, and the service was slow but the food was worth it. The hostess and the wait staff are super friendly - just a bit overwhelmed. I had the Secret History Omelette with Bacon and biscuit. The omelette and the biscuit were delicious. The bacon! Holy Cow (or is it holy pig?) THE BACON! The bacon is MAGICAL! When I asked the secret behind the bacon, they told me- a dry rub of crushed to Tabasco peppers and brown sugar, smoked to perfection! I came back the following weekend and the wait time was a lot better, as was the wait time for the food. We had the Pain Purdue (the world’s best French Toast! The bacon was so good, I purchased a frozen package of it to take home with me back to Connecticut! Outside seating is dog friendly.”

“Tried their cupcakes for the first time today. I think the banana pudding cupcake changed my life. There are so many flavors! I know where I’m going for birthday treats from now on! This place is heavenly. Love the owner’s story so much!”

“I absolutely love Pizza Shop Pizzas because they create true pizzeria pies! My family and I had their pies quite a bit over the years and each and every time they never disappoint! Their employees are always very friendly and glad to help. I picked up a pizza today and it was excellent as usual! 💯”

“Great customer service”

“Always good and huge portions”

“If y’all are going to have fried catfish, y’all need to have hush puppies. Not that sweet thick cornbread… it was terrible. Sorry to complain, but know I’m not the only one. Everyone loves hush puppies with fried catfish. Do yall even listen to what your customers are requesting?”

“Highly recommended Delicious Food Nice staff”

“The Luv Shack is the best kept secret restaurant in a town full of award-winning, trend-setting restaurants. Located behind a strip mall in a tiny shack, the food is always exceptional no matter what it is, and it's different from day-to-day. Highlights are Italian beef, chicken parm, and pepperoni topped tortellini on Tuesdays, but everything is hand made from scratch & always fantastic. Be prepared to stand in line Sunday morning for the best bagels south of Jersey. Could not recommend more highly.”

“Atmosphere at Newk's on Jackson as Superb!! The person taken my order was so polite, made my order exactly how I ordered it and the restaurant is always clean.”

“Very good ice cream and extremely knowledgeable associates!!”

“Excellent experience at Grit. Phenomenal food, service, and atmosphere. I got the Huevos Rancheros, a grit cake topped with brisket, eggs, avocado, and spicy black beans, and it was awesome. I also got their Bloody Mary, which was very good. Highly recommend.”

“We LOVE Jenna Huggins and the cuisine and friendly staff!! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Excellent service, delicious food. The prices are reasonable as well.”

“Great bartender/server, Caleb!”

“Delicious. Lots of vegetarian options.

Not cheap, but so much of the food is hand-crafted that the quality shows.

Decent vibe if you don’t have someone yapping on their phone.”

“Absolutely great food and atmosphere!”
