OT: restaurants suggestion in jackson

[ronpolk]

I've got a client coming in a few weeks and we will be going for dinner one night. Initially I was planning on going to shapleys but he text me wanting to go somewhere with good southern cusine (he's from Cleveland). So now I'm thinking walkers or parlor market. Which would you pick?

 

[coach66]

Where is he staying and how many

Libations will be involved, very important.

I've been overly impressed with Lou's Full Serve

And I've eaten at nearly all of the JXN restaurants worth eating at. Check out the menu, and if it sounds like what you're looking for, it's a cannot miss. And if you end up getting the smores brownie for dessert, ask specifically for the brown sugar ice cream to with it. Best dessert in Jackson.

If you want a cheaper option at dinner, the burger is elite. Also best onion rings I've ever had. I prefer the lunch menu, but just about everything is fantastic.

If you go Friday night, get reservations.

hamils? Not upscale but it's what I think of for true southern food

Hamils actually came to mind. And if we were doing lunch id be at 2 sisters or hamils. This guy has taken me to a couple really nice places so I should return the favor.

Take him to Primo's. Tell him Chris Christie ate there.

Thank you I'll be here all week

Gas station McRibs. Da best.

I was really impressed with The Manship House. Can't go wrong with Shapley's, Ely's, Walker's, etc...

Walkers it is

 

[LTblows]

Lou's > Walkers. Seriously. And helluva lot better service.

My past two experiences at Walkers has been utter crap. Highly disappointing. Wrong orders; rude staff. I'm gonna give it a while before I go back.

 

[dawgstudent]

I've been to Lou's 2 times for lunch. Have been really impressed both times.

If you haven't been to The Manship or Lou's Full Serve you are missing out on the best new restaurants in town.
The Manship also has the best bar in Mississippi.. Walker's is so 2005..

Sounds like someone owns real estate in Belhaven...

But I do agree, both of these are fantastic.

Jackson's been on a roll lately with new quality places to eat/drink.

Lou's is outstanding. And owned and run by good people.

Seafood Revolution

If you were going to Shapley's then the bill won't shock you quite as much. Closest thing to fine New Orleans dining I've had outside of New Orleans. I half expected to walk out into the Quarter when we finished eating.

I'm certainly gonna give Lou's a try. I'm just not taking a client there when I've never been. But I want to try it, I've heard good things.

 

[dawgstudent]

You could go to Ely's. A proud Bulldog owns it.

 

[VegasDawg13]

If you weren't going to take the guy somewhere you've never been, what's the point of asking for recommendations?

 

[weblow]

Lou's is fantastic. The Chef and owner is a buddy and have always left impressed with what we had. Great place.

So go to Lou's before then. The client's not coming for weeks...

La Finestra

Maybe I'm just a Sinatra guy, but this is my favorite spot in town

Well smart ***, if you read the post, I asked what would you pick between parlor market or walkers.

Cock of the Walk on the reservoir. It's a nastalgia thing for me. Been eating there almost 30 years. It's not as good as it once was but it'll always be my favorite place ever.
