He put this together in 2019 so some of the places have probably closed and others probably earned a spot on his list, but it's a great starting point.

2019

Not just a different time. It was a different world.

Lou’s full Serv
Walkers (my favorite restaurant in the state barely eeking out Anthony’s in West Point)
Saltines
Pig n pint

theres a lot more in ridgeland/Madison area. Several good steakhouses: tico’s, Shapleys (my favorite they cut steaks to your preference, elys etc.

A few good gyro places around too

Heck, my college buddy opened up a fast casual Thai place that’s pretty damn good. It’s near char

Just go somewhere better. :)
