Ms Audrey offers plate lunches, basically following the "meat and 3" (or two) concept, along with freshly brewed iced tea, sweet or not. I went for the catfish and shrimp combo, with sides of gravy rice and mac, and it was all perfect. Breading was light with the right crunch, tangy rice was great with brown gravy, and the mac was dreamy creamy. Ms Audreys is open for lunch six days (closed Saturdays) and is kind of in a back neighborhood, housed in a former elementary school, gym I think. Worth the hunt the next time you're hungry on the Gulf Coast, Gulfport/Biloxi.

On our visit to Poplarville last week, our family absolutely loved this wonderful cafe. There were…read moreso many delicious-looking choices on the menu, we had a difficult time narrowing it down to just one. Each of us decided to order a different item so we could share and enjoy all of them. Our daughter got the Reuben. My husband got the Avocado Chicken salad and I got the Crunch Pop Panini and potato soup. Everything tasted amazing! We were so full we had to forego all of the delectable desserts in the showcase. I told the wonderful owner and her staff that we were coming back to Poplarville in a week and that there was no doubt in our minds where we would go for lunch. We are planning on being there when she opens tomorrow, but this time we will order one of her impressive desserts, too!

So this a new place that just recently opened in Gautier. My husband said that he was in the mood…read morefor some southern cooking and had remembered seeing this place in Facebook posts. When I looked in Google and saw that they were open on Sunday I decided that I was taking him there. You come in and it is a down home feeling. You have to lay before you eat, not a big deal and for me and my husband it was about $30. They had fried and baked chicken, mashed potatoes, lime beans, black eyed peas, tomatoes and okra, and of course fried green tomatoes. The reviews we had seen had mentioned that item as being great and my husband can attest to the fact that they are delicious!!! The service was good and the people all checked up on us and made sure our drinks were filled and plates cleared away. We talked to one of the servers and they talked about how they were open on Sunday through Friday for lunch but closed and reopened on Friday nights for a seafood buffet. My husband and I looked at each other and went "Yes"! We will DEFINITELY be back to eat some more of their cooking. The menu is listed daily on their Facebook page so head over there to like and follow them to see what's for lunch everyday!

It has been a long time since we have had dinner here since the food was not good the last two times we had visited. We used to go all the time but the food just wasn't that good. We were greeted with a warm welcome and our waitress was wonderful. They were know for their thin catfish unfortunately they have lost their mojo. The fish tasted of just batter. Our waitress handled our party of 14 like a pro. Most of the food came out in a timely manner they were not busy. Our fish came out but the rest of the seafood platter was absent. When it did come out it was cool. Missing hush puppies which we had to ask for. The seafood platter came with two pieces of fish 6 shrimp 4 oysters , large stuff crab , fries and coleslaw. The fish was mushy, the shrimp and oysters were ok the stuff crab was very large but with lots of bread crumbs and green onions. Not our favorite. The place is beautiful. The owners have really worked hard and the decor is very nice. The focus is not on the food like the family that had opened the place. If you are on I55 stop in you will enjoy the beauty of the drive and their dock is great.

I ordered the special which was the thin cut catfish, fries, hush puppies, and I believe potato salad. I subbed the potato salad for extra fries. Now the amount of food was not much at all! Definitely not $19 worth. The fish was ok. Not bad but not anything I'd just have to have again. I didn't like the hush puppies at all. I wish it came with some type of bread. Overall, I'm glad I got to try it. Would I travel to get it? Nah.
