City Limits

Very nice little restaurant. Despite the strip mall exterior, it was a nice place. On a Saturday night, there was a birthday party going on, and the place was packed with locals, always a good sign. It's a homey type of place, with collections of old family photos on the wall, and they make you feel like part of the family. The service was exceptional. Our waitress kept checking to make sure that everything was all right, and the manager visited our table several times as well. The menu offered a number of steak and seafood options, and the prices were all reasonable. They brought some really nice home made rolls to start the meal, then brought out a great salad that was really tasty. All of their dressings are homemade. My wife and I both choose the 8oz rib eye, for $12, and it was a nice cut and properly prepared. It came with a choice of sides, several of which were appealing, but the large, fully loaded baked potato was what we picked, and it was great. When I go back, however, I may have to try the shrimp and grits.

Avoid at all cost!

When I travel, I try to eat at independent, local restaurants and sometimes this practice this comes back to bite me. The ambiance is grim, service hostile, presentation bleak, and food inedible. "Surf and turf" was the thinnest possible cut of overcooked steak served in a pool of its own juices with a meager couple of skewered shrimp lying on top of it. Dishes were cold and sauces congealed. There's just no excuse to serve "food" like this.

They have lunch and dinner.  Lunch is ok.  You can order of the menu or order the special.  The most frustrating issue is the service at lunch.  Now at dinner, if you go on a Friday or Saturday night they have a great special that is extremely abnormal for small town Mississippi.  Two Friday's ago I had a pasta, spinach, chicken thing.  I have no idea what it was called but it was good enough that I ate some of it, carried it home and had some for lunch the following day.  THEN my teen son finished it for me. So, the portion size are generous. Desserts are great.  Caramel cake was amazing.
