A great experience here this morning at the Fat Spoon Cafe. We were lucky to have been served by Lucy. She filled us in on the menu and took our orders. Since it was around 10 and having already eaten something, I decided on Brunch and ordered the Cuban Sandwich and for my side I got a house salad. It was a very good sandwich cooked just right. I really liked the meat and pickles. The salad was fresh and pretty decent too. The place has indoor and outdoor seating, but we are in Ocean Springs, so sit inside! The place was clean and organized well. A lot of places to sit in a small dining room. Thank you Fat Spoon and Lucy for another good day in Mississippi! read more

I've been coming here for years and rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was disappointing enough that I feel people should know before spending their money. I ordered the flavored champagne flight during brunch and specifically asked for very light syrup because the drinks are usually extremely sweet. When the flight came out, it tasted exactly the same as the regular version -- overwhelmingly sweet to the point that I genuinely could not drink it. When I politely mentioned it, the bartender/manager said "that's just how it comes" and initially refused to do anything about it. I sent the flight back and ordered a plain glass of champagne instead. Our server told us she would speak to the manager and have her come talk to us, but apparently the manager refused multiple times because she was "too busy." Eventually, the same flight was brought back out after they said they had poured some out and added more champagne on top. Unfortunately, it was still far too sweet, and I still couldn't drink two of the four glasses. What disappointed me most wasn't even the drinks -- it was the customer service. Mistakes happen, but the dismissive attitude from management and lack of concern made the experience frustrating and uncomfortable. The server also seemed irritated at being caught in the middle rather than interested in resolving the situation. I still tipped 20% because I know serving isn't easy, but after today I honestly don't see myself coming back. read more

We had eggs Sardou and it was the best egg dish I've ever had! Service and servers were very friendly. We sat outside and "people watched" while we ate. I highly recommend this place. read more

Cute cute cute! Service was awesome as was the food! Kiddos of course had the waffle, hubs had a breakfast quesadilla and I went with the avocado toast. Everything was superb. If any correction I'd recommend a little less salt on potatoes, otherwise it was the bomb dot com. Even the coffee was super tasty. Thank you! read more

Just the best food and atmosphere. Krystal was wonderful and very helpful with the menu. We sat outside and people watched for a while. Just a perfect moment!! read more

This business is located in downtown Ocean Springs. When my family visited, parking was easy to find. As we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the waitress, who promptly handed us menus. The space was clean and had a welcoming, cozy atmosphere. I ordered the Fat Spoon Breakfast Sandwich and really enjoyed it. The egg was perfectly cooked, and the sausage had great flavor without being too salty. Everyone at the table was satisfied with their meal. read more

We loved Fat Spoon Cafe! As first timers in Biloxi, we were looking for local eateries with good food. After looking through Yelp reviews, we landed on Fat Spoon for brunch. What a great choice! Good service, and a number of choices on the menu! Our waitress treated us like family, and the small, intimate dining area was a joy! We ordered, beignet fries, grits with debris, a biscuit, and eggs Benedict with potatoes. All were excellent. Especially the grits with debris! The biscuits are the best I've ever tasted! And I've tasted them all across the country!I would not hesitate to recommend Fat Spoon to everyone! Give it a try! read more

Fat Spoon - Mississippi Coast I ordered debris grits with fried catfish, fries, coleslaw, and coffee. * The roast beef debris was so salty it actually stung my mouth. * My first plate of catfish was soft, loose, and falling apart, so I sent it back. * The replacement catfish was bland but somehow still tasted scorched. * The coleslaw was swimming in a watery white liquid and tasted like straight vinegar. * The coffee was so weak it wouldn't even hold creamer. This was hands-down another horrible meal I've had on the Mississippi Coast. For a restaurant in a major tourist area, this level of food quality is unacceptable. But for this area being a tourist attraction, these restaurants would not make it one and done it's so many people coming through here the restaurants seem to be successful but food quality wise, horrible! The chefs and the cooks are arrogant and egotistical so you can't tell them anything without them getting offended or outright mad. I left that slop on the table. read more

We visited this place 3 days in a row while in Biloxi, and everything we tried was delicious! The eggs Florentine were AMAZINGGGG and the eggs Benedict too!! The place is cute and nearby a lot of different businesses and has a nice, laid back vibe. The service was top notch, all three servers we had were attentive and friendly. I can't wait to go back!! read more

Fat Spoon Cafe - Eggs Benedict and Breakfast Potatoes with grilled onions - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

As a professional chef and someone who has spent years ghostwriting for several food blogs, I tend to pay close attention to the details when dining out. I had high hopes visiting Fat Spoon Café while in Ocean Springs, but unfortunately the experience fell short. While sitting near the bar, I overheard a staff member speaking negatively about another employee and making snide remarks that seemed directed at customers. Hearing that kind of conversation in front of guests felt very unprofessional and created an uncomfortable atmosphere. The food itself was also disappointing. I ordered a waffle and it tasted very much like something made from a boxed mix rather than being prepared fresh in-house. Small touches like scratch-made batters can make a huge difference in both flavor and overall experience. My husband ordered the shrimp and grits, and that dish was equally underwhelming. The sauce was extremely watery and overly salted, which felt like it was trying to compensate for a lack of layered flavor. The grits themselves appeared to rely heavily on cream for their texture. If you know how to properly make grits, dairy isn't necessary to achieve creaminess. A slow cooking process with water, salt, and good grits will naturally create that creamy texture, with butter added at the end for richness. Using cream can speed things up in a rushed kitchen, but it's not needed when the dish is prepared with care, and it can also be an issue for guests who are sensitive to lactose. read more

This place was so amazing and accommodating to our group of 21 people that included 7 toddlers! Not only were they so accommodating and welcoming, our food was fantastic & every server that helped out was so sweet. We used to live in OS & missed it so much that we decided to host a little getaway here and show all of our family the sweet town we fell in love with. This was their first morning in OS/first impression & it was just really nice. I had the shrimp and grits and it was phenomenal. Everyone expressed how much they loved their food. read more

We stopped into Fat Spoon Cafe on a whim. Ocean Springs is my hometown so I love trying places that weren't there when I was a child. The inside is kinda small but there's plenty room. They had a little late lunch crowd but service was quick and professional. Everyone working there seemed eager to help one another out. My daughter had a burger (some kinda smokey something burger with caramelized onions nad mushrooms). She loved it. Fries were really good, too! I had a standard breakfast of two scrambled eggs, cheese grits, bacon, and a biscuit that was like heaven! Oh man, that thang was so tall and soft like a pillow. I wanted to take a nap on it and devour it at the same time. Nothing was particularly special, butter, jam, honey all prepackaged average stuff. Price was reasonable. Nice little spot. We left full, that's for sure! Another review giving it to you straight, no chaser! Enjoy! read more

Fat Spoon Cafe is a new brunch spot in Ocean Springs that's a great new choice! We tried this for the first time on a Sunday and everything was a good experience! First, service was quick, great, and friendly. They consistently checked on us and got us everything we needed. Our food selections below were great! The Belgian waffle was soft and fluffy and our egg dishes were cooked just right. At this visit, we sat outside as the weather was great but the restaurant had outside and inside seating - ambiance is a laid back brunch spot, check it out! read more

Oh buddy this place was spot on. All three kids found something they liked and loved. We all loved the grits. My oldest got the seared tuna which was done just right My husband got the LA Spoon Deluxe. The crawfish etouffee on top was very nicely done. I got the Eggs Sardou and I'm not gonna lie that was the best take on an eggs Benedict I've ever had. Also try Beignet Sticks, and their libations were super tasty. For you coffee lovers the coffee was also a good choice. Thanks for a great meal! read more

Location is great, right off the main road and parking is easy to find. We sat outside, ordered a mimosa flight with the avocado toast and the waitress recommended the breakfast quesadillas. The mimosa flight was unpleasantly sweet for mimosas; the strawberry mimosa tasted as if it was mixed with strawberry soda and champagne. The avocado toast was a lot and lacked flavor, the avocado did not look fresh and tasted like it was packaged. The breakfast quesadilla was decent. Food arrived fairly quickly after ordering and the waitress seemed to be in a rush to get the check out to the table. overall, we wouldn't stop by again. read more

We really liked this place...but there isn't much about Ocean Springs we don't like! Friendly staff, big windows for people watching and a nice selection of breakfast and lunch/dinner items. We were there on a quiet morning and Hubs had the La Spoon Deluxe omelette. Granted, he would eat etouffee on a shingle, but he loved (and ate!) every bit of the fluffy eggs, veggies, cheese and crawfish, along with the hot, crispy breakfast potatoes and toast (see picture). I had the Boudin Scrambler which was delicious and a bit spicy, with its pepper jack cheese. I would have liked the veggies cooked a bit more but the al dente onions peppers added a nice texture. All in all an enjoyable meal and we will be back to try the lunch and dinner items. PS: the whole menu is available anytime! read more

This is one of the best breakfast spots I've ever been to! The food is amazing! The service was great, and our server was friendly and attentive. It's a bit small inside, but they easily accommodated our group of five. There's also outdoor seating as well. We started with the beignet sticks, which were perfect with our coffee. I had the eggs Benedict, and it was delicious. My son ordered the shrimp and grits. I was a little jealous because it looked amazing! I did get to taste it though. The sauce was incredible, and the shrimp were large and fresh. My mother-in-law had the Greek omelette, which also looked great. The Belgian waffles looked perfect, I'm definitely trying one next time. I highly recommend this cafe for breakfast. You will not be disappointed! read more

Good food, fair prices and good service. We had breakfast and lunch and the food was good and plentiful.

Great food,excellent service! Have been here a few times for lunch and are never disappointed! Highly recommend this place!

Food was great! We ordered a mix of breakfast (Eggs Benedict) and lunch items (Shrimp & Grits). It was immediately obvious that there was Cajun in the kitchen! All plates were well seasoned and delicious. ...probably the most delicious Shrimp & Grits I have ever had. We also enjoyed their twist on the biscuits by placing them on the flat top to crisp up the bottom. Nice job. Service was prompt and friendly. Our server knew how and what to recommend. Ambiance was down home and comfortable. Bonus! They serve Coke products. We'll be back. read more

We stumbled on this little place and I'm so thrilled we did!!! We took a seat outside on their front patio. Our server was a sweetheart, and quickly took our drink order. I asked for some entree selections and she gladly gave us some fan favorites. I chose the shrimp & grits...and I'm SO GLAD I DID! The shrimp used is FRESH shrimp, not frozen. It was so hearty of a portion, my husband had to eat part of it! He chose the grits with debris..."what in the world was that?!"...you're asking yourself! Well, it's a bowl of grits topped off with shredded roast beef and some kind of light gravy...again...DELICIOUS!!! I think anything we would have chosen would have been awesome. Visit this place!!! You'll thank me later! read more

Visited this new location in Ocean Springs. We were greeted by a friendly server upon entering. The place appeared to be clean and particularly quiet from loud music that sometimes is played in restaurants which was a pleasant change. I ordered Avocado Toast with feta cheese ( hold the tomatoes) and top with an over easy egg. It was topped with balsamic vinegar which at first I was apprehensive about. I was thrilled with my first bite ! Fantastic !!! The food was top notch! A little costly on some items but worth every single bite! read more

Fat Spoon Cafe - Garden omelette with shrimp - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

Recently took a trip down to the coast. As always, we were on the hunt for someplace to get brunch. After reading the yelp reviews and browsing the menu, we decided to try the Fat Spoon and I'm so glad we did. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed and made our standard coffee order. The waitress suggested a Bloody Mary. She said it wouldn't disappoint. I'm from Wisconsin and we take our Brandy Old Fashions and our bloodys very seriously. I went ahead and ordered the bloody. She was right. It was delish and reminded me of home . We ordered the Beignet Sticks for starters and they came out pretty quick. They were very tasty and not too heavy. One order was the perfect amount for us to share. My husband ordered the shrimp and grits and I ordered the eggs Benedict with a twist. I substituted the ham for their famous "debris" for a very minimal up charge. This was hands down the best breakfast we have ever had. I don't like seafood, but I couldn't stop stealing bites off my husband's plate. And my Bennie was heavenly. His plate came with a griddled biscuit that was so good, he ordered a second that we shared. If you find yourself lucky enough to have the opportunity to have breakfast here, you should do it. This will be the place I tell all my people to go to and we will certainly be back. read more
