But just west of the headlines, tucked into Bolton like a blues riff in a gospel town, there's S & S Burgers and Blues. And this place? It speaks plain. The grill's hot, the beer's cold, and the vibe is exactly what you need when the day's been long and the truth's been bent. It's laid-back in the way only the South can be, gritty, soulful, and unapologetically real. You don't come here for pretense. You come for a burger that drips down your wrist and a laugh that cuts through the static. This is where you bring people when you want to show them the Mississippi that doesn't make the brochures. The one that feeds you, welcomes you, and sends you back out into the world just a little more human.

The young man at the counter was having trouble with opening the cash drawer and left us standing there to go to the drive thru window to ask the manager, a woman, for help. He went back to her twice and finally she came to the counter-never addressed us, was joking with the young man, walked away. The young man then dropped his headset, at which point we walked out, as well as the customer in line behind us after seeing the circus going on behind the counter. Totally ridiculous behavior. We went across the street to Chick Fil A and spent our money there.

Huge serving of catfish, perfectly cooked and seasoned spicy, but not burn your mouth spicy. Service is good, but was a little slower than when I came here previously. This is in restored 1880 home.

Made sure to say hello to me and everyone else. Food was hot and fresh. I don't know what it is about this place but I freaking love it. That Cane sauce is like freaking crack, the skinny crinkle fries are the perfect crunchy, and the tenders are sprinkled with something magical, I swear... It's loud as hell in there, and the music is eclectic to say the least. I actually love that part as you hear some funky stuff. Caught myself dancing in my seat as I ate them tasty little tenders. What wasn't that great is it was extremely cold inside with all of the ceiling fans just cranking just to stir the chilly air! One last gripe that really made me decide on four stars. It's slick as ice in the floor. I am a bit disabled these days and about bit it in the bathrooms. '24- 88/101

As a long-time frequent customer of Raising Cane's in Ridgeland, MS, I thought I knew their values…read more But on today, which is a super hot (its in July) they chose to lose my business over a mere drop of water, revealing their true corporate greed and utter lack of customer care. I came through the drive-thru, paid for my meal, and moved to the second window. When I decided to purchase a cup of water for $0.25, I struggled to reach my change. With a line of people behind me, I searched and searched while the window agent just stared, utterly indifferent. It struck me how absurd it was to spend my money at an establishment so unwilling to offer a simple courtesy drink while I fumbled for change. They preferred to inconvenience waiting customers and let me grow frustrated over a measly $0.25 rather than say, "Ma'am, as a courtesy, we'll offer you a small cup of water this time." I spend $50.00 to $70.00 here most weeks. Yet they couldn't offer a small courtesy water. I asked for my money back, deciding I no longer wanted to support them. The manager walked up and snarkily responded, "Do you THINK we're just going to GIVE YOU WATER?" His tone was particularly nasty. THIS ESTABLISHMENT WILL NEVER GET ANOTHER DIME FROM ME. EVER. It's appalling how some restaurants in Mississippi treat people so poorly. I'm amazed they stay in business. Thankfully, places like this serve cheap, unhealthy, fattening, and overpriced food, making the decision to stop patronizing them all the easier.

We got the half Italian and half Honey bbq. Sides were steamed broccoli and potato salad. The sides were ok but the standouts were definitely the sandwiches. I wasn't expecting them to be so good. I imagined they would be on par with Subway but nope, they came out so quickly and warm. The cheese on the honey bbq melted so beautifully and loveee the sweetness of it too. The sourness of the Dijon mustard coupled perfectly with the Italian meats. You may dine in but we got them to go to eat while on the road. The staff was patient with while we looked at the menu. It looks like if you sign up for rewards, you get a famous sweet tea! I don't get why they have negative reviews. This place definitely deserves 5 stars!
