I mean there were a lot of people with "x's" on their hand. They were charging a $5 cover and there were not a lot of people there outside of the people at a party in a private area on the side of place. It shares a building with another bar/restaurant called the 4th and Goal Sports Cafe. They have a huge parking lot that it shares with the other businesses located in the strip mall that it is in. It is a dimly lit joint that has 2 pool tables, a bar in the back, an indoor deck above the bar that you can rent out, a huge dance floor/open space with a few tables and chairs set up around it. There is also a stage and screens with television programming projected on them. For some reason they had hockey playing on them while I was there. They had a DJ playing all the hot hits. That was the best part of the night club by far. All and all, I was not very impressed and found myself yawning and saw many people leaving after only a few minutes of coming in. I was in bed by 11. I thought Saturday's were its best night, but I could be wrong.

I Ordered a cup of seafood gumbo (no rice-hate rice in gumbo) and it was good. Just a tad too salty but it had plenty of shrimp and sausage and good flavor. Would definitely get that again. Ordered the Tres Leches French toast and decided I better get the half order due to the gumbo. It was two pieces of Texas toast so that was a good call, as I barely finished my plate. It didn't require syrup due to the chantilly cream and cherries. I really enjoyed the taste of it. The bacon was the thick kind, similar to Wrightes Bacon, and was cooked well too. I won't complain about service since it's a holiday. My server was actually pretty good but it did take a while for my food to come out. I'm glad I finally got to try the brunch at Hal and Mal's and look forward to trying other dishes.

The sides are very good as well. We got a baked potato which was fluffy inside , fried okra and a side salad (homemade ranch..yummy). Our kids got fried chicken tenders and cheeseburger and they all cleaned their plates so I think they really enjoyed it. We love the laid back atmosphere and the service was excellent. It's the definition of a dive.

I hope that you treat yourself to some of the fun things Jackson has to offer.

We bought tickets and were guaranteed in a certain section only to be given tickets in a completely different section on the far left. I'd recommend just buying your tickets on Ticketmaster and skip the crummy service the theater has outsourced and is receiving from their season ticket provider. I'd like to support the theater with season tickets but we will definitely skip next year if the theater continues to outsource to this vendor. The vendor they use is located in the Northeast and obviously doesn't realize that southerners expect honesty and courtesy nor do they realize Mississippi is the home of hospitality.

From the time we walked through the door the service was excellent! We were greeted with a smile and didn't have to wait. We were taken right to a table. The server came with a smile and got our drink order and food order. I don't think we waited 15 minutes for our order. It was hot and fresh and oh so good! We both got the lunch special grilled pork chops with 2 sides and a roll. The server kept checking on us to make sure we were good and if we needed anything and after we finished our meal the manager even came by to ask if everything was okay. I highly recommend The Iron Horse Grill!! 2 thumbs up and 5 stars

We started eating here probably 30 years ago when it was the OG. Mike always got the crawfish enchiladas and I got the habanero cream sauce pasta with grilled shrimp. He got fried shrimp tonight. The shrimp were jumbo and fried perfect. The "depot" fries are frozen crinkle cut. He subbed the Mac and cheese for the okra. It's more of a less sauce old fashioned Mac and cheese. I got my old habanero cream sauce pasta. It was served in the tiniest of bowls but the amount of food was good. Why not serve it in a normal sized dish? I would rather have the 4 jumbo shrimp they used to serve back in the day rather than the smallish medium shrimp. The sauce was thicker than I prefer but flavor was decent. I'll try something different next time. The cocktails were delicious. Again, the service and speed of things was incredible for a party of 17. My biggest negative was the music is ridiculously loud. Serving food to 17 people with that music was diabolical and we could not even visit. The group was great but the volume needs to be turned down. Def recommend for a large group but be prepared for music that is concert volume.

Jones though, you're not going somewhere where you're trying to be fancy. You just wanna dance to some blues and have a damn good time. And you WILL. F. Jones is THE late night spot in Jackson. I'm not even entirely sure what time this place opens. I think it's 10 or 11? I know if you get there before midnight most nights, you can avoid paying cover. BUT, I don't think I've ever showed up before midnight. This place pops off past midnight. This is where everyone heads once the other bars are closing, so everyone has usually already had a couple drinks. (PS, take an UBER! Do not drink and drive!) There is always live music-- typically some very Mississippi blues act. Everyone is dancing and having such a good time on the dance floor. The bar is dark, smoky, and crowded. It's VERY Mississippi. Outside, they are usually smoking some hot dogs, burgers, BBQ. It's cheap and delicious, and usually JUST what you need at that time of the night. The drinks are cheap. Cover to get in is usually $10, and you can get beers as cheap as $2 or $3 usually. F. Jones is definitely not an EVERY night type of thing. I mean, it's a LATE night. But every now and then, it's a really good time and definitely worth your while. Go get your dance on, y'all.

I love Martin's! I've always just thought of them as a dive bar, but recently discovered that they…read morehave weekday blue plate specials - and the food is good. Each special comes with a choice of bread and two sides, but you can add a third one for just $1.00. My go-to is the pot roast blue plate. I get it with cheese grits, fried okra and green beans (unless they have cabbage as the vegetable of the day). Martin's has THE BEST fried okra. The Redfish Kathleen is also delicious! I'm a sucker for crawfish cream sauce. Drinks are always good, and so is service. The atmosphere is very chill. Come as you are. There are a few seating areas: The bar, the patio, the main dining area and back dining room. They have live musicians on the patio on Friday nights. Martin's also has another room with a stage for events. Go!
