Was in town for business. Stopped in to Huck's for dinner. Had the mahi Orleans and it was excellent. Had a salad and the mushrooms for sides. Loved the mushrooms. Our waitress was great. Would defiantly go back there again. read more

Great food, great atmosphere! I got the blackened chicken sandwich with potato salad and both were phenomenal! I'll definitely be back.

I have only eaten at Huck's during the lunch hours, so I would be forced to defer to others for a review of the dinner menu, service, etc. As far as lunch goes, however, I have always been very happy. The vegetable plate is the regular option for me, and I have never left hungry or dissatisfied with the meal. Although I attempt to stay clear of fried food, I always make an exception for the fried okra here. It is really good. The service has always been good but not intrusive, and drinks are refilled promptly. The atmosphere is enjoyable, particularly in the downstairs area. The upstairs isn't great if you are hoping to socialize and bump into others, but it works well if you are in the mood to be left alone. If you are looking for a place to find a good lunch in an enjoyable atmosphere, this is your place. read more

Huck's has a great menu with lots of good Cajun food. And, the appetizers are great! As most good restaurants it does get crowded though, especially Thursday-Saturday. I go there often and recommend it to all read more

Here we go... Great atmosphere, looks like Texas, Louisiana and Iowa had a threesome. (That's not a bad thing...necessarily). Cozy southern atmosphere. Now let's start with the water... Individual water statements... tastes dirty, metallic, Iowa water, one sip quit. Moving on to beer. - all served in the bottle, no big deal, I can live with that... We'll just note it's not a brewery. Fried pickles delicious, shrimp exceeded their name... Free bread was free bread. Main course - stuffed chicken boom, mushroom sauce was perfect, side of asparagus... The asparagus fetcher must be getting paid by the spike because they were the smallest asparagus I've ever seen, I will say seasoning was again perfect. (Don't blame the cook for the lazy fetcher.) Once again too full for dessert. I'm happily full. read more

Huck's Place - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Columbus, Mississippi

My husband & I hosted a business meeting here in February. We do this once a month all over the U.S. and he has NEVER had so many positive comments about a venue. I originally tried to set up the meeting in December, close to the holidays, and found it extremely difficult. I ended up canceling after being asked to sign a contract & they still would not accommodate the number of people we needed. This experience left a bad taste in my mouth, but a local customer told me to try again, that I wouldn't be disappointed. It must have just been the holidays, because when I called to reschedule in February, they could not have been more helpful. Even called to confirm the number of people the day before, (I normally have to do this at other restaurants just to make sure they've staffed appropriately) and they made sure the limited menu was what we were looking for. We had almost 20 people show up, service was good, food was better and it was all around a success. I will definitely be using them again in the future. read more

I came here last week during a brief visit. My brother lives around the corner and we walked to Here. I ordered some beers and fried crawfish tails as an appetizer. I ordered the fried chicken covered in pecans and maple. The food was just incredible. The flavor was perfect and unlike anything I've had before. The service was good and waitress kept checking on us. The atmosphere is great for watching football games or a race. I would definitely come back read more

Went to this place due to having the best and most review in Yelp. Eating area has a great ambiance and hosts were very nice. I've ordered crawfish nachos and shrimp poboy sandwich. The nachos were too salty and the crawfish in it were breaded thickly that it's very greasy. The poboy is okay but not memorable. It comes with homemade salty chips and sandwich itself came with small shrimps, sauce, and tomato. read more

I'm giving this place a 3 star review. 4 star food and 1 star service (that's being generous for the service.) Dont get me wrong the food here is delicious and always has been every time I have been here. The servers are ok, but the hostesses at the front are complete snooty jerks. I've never been treated as bad at a sit-down restaurant as these ladies have treated me and my accomplices. Ive held off on writing this review but after I've been here 10+ times and still get treated consistently the same I had to post this review. I hope management sees this and takes corrective actions. I feel this should be an easy problem to fix versus if the food was bad. As for now, I just make the drive to Starkville for dining out instead of this restaurant being 1.3 miles from my house. read more

The atmosphere is great, and the food is delicious. It is one of our regular restaurants we eat at. We love it.

Highly recommend this place, great Cajun food without the over the top Cajun schlock some places have to do to get you to buy into the concept. This place is just well done southern staples and often with a modern twist. read more

I found this place in yelp while traveling for business and I'm very glad I did. This place exceeded my expectations so much that I went there two nights in a row and ordered the same thing. The redfish pontchartrain is amazing. read more

Delicious food, strong drinks, excellent service, and great atmosphere! Ask to be seated in Bridget's section. She'll take great care of you! read more

The food was so good, the service was great around wonderful place. The Red Fish and New York Strip were excellent

Love the food and service at Huck's. It's a weekly favorite of ours.

Huck's Place is my go to restaurant for birthday dinners, work lunches, and girl's night out. Love their steaks, fried green tomatoes, and the crab dip. Yum-O!! Always the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing fun lunch or dinner, no matter the crowd. read more

So yelp led me here last night and oh my! I am not new to the area but I have only been in Starkville since last fall. I have been dying to get out and find the perfect go to restaurant. Let me start with the atmosphere, that's what you experience first anyway. Its right in the heart of downtown Columbus among quaint shops, historical landmarks and the hustle and bustle of small town USA. Its warm and welcoming with character and you're greeted by nice hostesses who are friendly. Then you walk into the restaurant and there are multiple loft areas with patio lights and lanterns and warmth and quiet chatter. The server was kind, informative and patient. When she realized it was our first time there she went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied and even tried to help me pick a menu item when I was torn. She checked in frequently and really was the cherry on top the whole experience. I ordered the redfish pontchitrain and from the texture of the fish to the seasoning on the batter everything was down and executed to a perfect science. The grits were phenomenal and didn't need any table seasoning. The maple bourbon sweet potatoes were seasoned perfectly and the dirty rice was gone before I could get a bite. My fiance got the blackened catfish and while I don't like freshwater fish it was superb. The salad that came with the meal was a good size and the dressing tasted homemade. The tea was perfectly sweetened and the vodka comes strong. I am so glad that I stumbled upon this ruby of a gem and I will be back over and over and over again! read more

Read the reviews and decided to drive over from Weir to give it a try. Atmosphere was very nice, quiet and the dinner was very good. The two waitresses are our table were kind and assisting. Table busing was done effectively quick. Set it aside and it was gone. Yes a tad pricey, but the flavor was good and the portion size plenty. I skipped on the after dinner sweets. Post dinner was some time on the river walk for the wife and I. Would recommend it to you also. read more

Huck's Place - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Columbus, Mississippi

This place is simply amazing... first of all the atmosphere is perfect. It is set in beautiful downtown Columbus Ms , the building is true to its roots combining old and new. Huck's offers two full , well stocked bars. But all of that definitely takes a backseat to the food!! Offering a lunch menu that is sooo good and a dinner menu that is just Devine. I've had the porterhouse pork chop that was cooked to perfection .... the grilled and blackened fish dishes are wonderful also. But I must say my absolute favorite is the ribeye steak. The steak is cooked to your likings and is always a high quality cut , the seasoning is such flavor that a steak sauce would ruin the flavor!! The staff has always been great and so helpful. I have never had a bad experience here. This restaurant is by far one of my all time favorites!! It is a must if you are in Columbus!!! read more

It was my first time ever eating here and I must say the house choice steak was absolutely wonderful! I've never eaten a steak so well cooked , my fiancé got the catfish gratin and I don't like fish but I tried his plate and loved it lol!!!! read more

Good service, had the pork chop good flavor but kinda tuff meat. I will go back and eat again.

Neat local restaurant. Great appetizer- cream cheese, artichoke and kale with chips was delicious. Grilled red snapper, asparagus and bake potato also amazing - snapper was fresh and juicy- asparagus was tender and yummy ! Hubby had the chicken with potato and mushroom and andouille sausage- super big portion and flavors were spot on. Not sure you can go wrong here. Service wasn't great but if I was back in town I'd definitely eat here again. read more

Can't figure out what this place is trying to be. Plastic cups, condiments - mayo, ketchup and mustard served in packets - and this is for dining in. $11 Hamburger was ok, doesn't come with fries, $2 extra for mushrooms, $2 extra for bleu cheese, $2 extra for bacon -- do you see a pattern here? Before you know it you're eating a $20 burger!!! On other visits I've had the blackened catfish with cajun sauce VERY SALTY (recommend the blackened catfish at Harveys - delicious!) I've also had their filet mignon, it was good, but not as good as Old Hickory Steak House. The atmosphere is good, but don't have a clue as to what type of theme they're going for? Huck's Roadhouse? read more

Excellent service and food. Nice variety and worth the slightly above average pricing. Worth it and will be returning. Come early and avoid the large local crowds. Server was very efficient but not over powering. read more

For the amount of money you dish out at this place, you'd expect to be eating at a fancy restaurant, but no, instead you're eating a Huck's place a mediocre restaurant at best. Aside from having to wait over an hour for a table, the service was extremely slow also! Trying to get a re-fill of water, is a joke. We might as well have brought are own bottles of water while we waited on our appetizers. The meal itself wasn't hot, my medium stake was closer to well done, and well I already mentioned the beverage service. It would have been a pleasure to sip on something while I was trying to stomach an over cooked steak. Like I stated in the title, I believe Huck's Place is overrated. If you're thinking about going, my recommendation...bring your own water! read more

In town visiting and a friend recommended and I was not disappointed. Sat at the bar since there was just one of me and ordered by recommendation the red fish, and it was noteworthy. Tender and delicious. If I travel back through this area, I will sure make another stop. read more

Never had a bad meal! Steaks are amazing, crawfish nachos are amazing, but the chicken Huck is probably my go to! You can't go wrong with anything you choose! read more

I waited to write a review until after my third visit because I really wanted to like this establishment. After all, it's one of few places to go to dinner in Columbus, and it has a nice location and bar. BUT the food is less than mediocre and the server we have ended up with all three times is extremely unfriendly. Our experience last weekend will keep us from returning. As for my meal, the chicken was decent but the mashed potatoes were too salty to eat (consistency of instant potatoes), and I only got a few pieces of cold asparagus. My husband's pasta had very little meat and his sides were also way too salty to even eat. As a table we all agreed that the best thing anyone received was the French fries, so I guess if all you really want is French fries then eating here would be okay. The waitress was extremely unfriendly. We were with two other couples and when she came to our table and we were still discussing menu items she rolled her eyes and said she'd come back when we were ready. She didn't ask if we had any questions, if we'd been there before (one couple hadn't), or even greet us for that matter. After waiting too long for our food and finally eating, she brought our checks and never took our empty plates. We literally sat there talking and finishing drinks with our leftover food and empty plates in front of us for twenty minutes. For how long we waited and the price we paid to eat here, I was shocked at how we were treated. Needless to say, we don't plan on returning, and we definitely won't be recommending this restaurant to friends who move here in the future. read more

I've tried over and over again to like Hucks. I understand that I am going against the norm here since everyone in Columbus loves the place. I will say that they have a really fun atmosphere with two bars, one upstairs and one down. This place is very popular and often times has a 30 min-1 hour wait for a table. I've been here probably about 15 times and the service is overall fairly slow- most likely because it is always busy. The food is southern/creole. Everything is VERY heavy. A majority of the menu is fried and everything is smothered in butter. Way to much butter.. Many of the dishes are very rich, oftentimes too rich. The steaks are pretty decent but other than that I've never walked out of there impressed about the food. Bottom line: fun atmosphere, expect a long wait, very rich, buttery, and salty food. (Enough to make Paula Dean cringe...) read more

This is by far the best restaurant in Columbus. The staff is friendly, the decor is southern chic, but best of all the food is outstanding. Their house dressing is divine, it's so good I always ask for extra. Their blacken fish is perfectly cooked every time and while their steaks are expensive they too are the best you can get in town. Their sides and entrees are delicious too. I especially like the fried green tomatoes. The only thing I wasn't impressed with that I have tried was the craw fish etouffee and their soups. read more

One of my favorite places in Columbus. The service is always great. Bone in Ribye is the best I've ever had. The Red Fish is good alternative as well. read more

Just moved to town. Heard lots of good things about this place, so thought I would try it out. Website failed to load spitting out errors. Luckily, found a PDF of the menu from a google search. After looking through the menu, called in and was told they don't take take out orders. Guess more of a bar than a restaurant. Two stars only because he menu actually looked appetizing. read more

Awesome food and great service!!! The Golden catfish was delicious and the serving was big! Fun evening.

This is one of the restaurants my group always visits when we are in town. They have great food and quick, friendly service. Their upstairs area can accommodate large groups in a semi private space. I'm sure I'll be back. read more

I've eaten here a few times and somehow convince myself to splurge on an expensive entree but usually leave disappointed. Don't get me wrong, this place is great for drafts and appetizers (best cheese sticks ever) but the entrees are not worth the price. I had the shrimp and grits which was surprisingly lacking flavor. My husband had a steak and said that Harvey's steak blew this one out of the water. Not super vegetarian friendly either; my friend tried to just order a few vegetables and somehow the waitress manhandled her into getting a salad that she was less than thrilled with. read more

Went to check this place out with a few buddies last night. Great food at a reasonable price. Their crawfish nachos were a hit, and the garlic mashed potato side was fantastic. My chicken was a little dry, but the sauce on top helped. We will definitely be back. read more

I had high expectations based on the reviews, but once you've had ettoufee in New Orleans, nothing can come close to it. I was definetly disappointed. It wasn't flavorful enough for me. The fried green tomatoes were pretty good though. The service is friendly. My bloody mary was nothing earth shattering, but it did the job. read more

The fried chicken they have on Monday's blue plate special is the best I've ever had. It's so good I am back for supper to have it again.

I've been here several times for lunch, dinner and drinks. I've had their steak, tamales, appetizers and plate lunches. Everything has been top quality and the atmosphere is perfect for dining. It's family owned and family run. I think they've figured out a great menu and way to run a restaurant. I'll eat here every chance I get. read more

Maybe it was just me but I've been to Huck's three times for lunch and was never impressed with them. Thinking it was just me at first my wife said hers was kinda bland and my son didn't really care for his. I may stop in there again sometime but I simply cannot recommend them for lunch because there are other places in the area that have better food and more reasonable prices. read more
