    The food is fresh. The service is friendly. The atmosphere is plain but the food speaks volumes.read more

    We selected Nonna's as we wanted to eat somewhere that wasn't a chain establishment. We were in the…read morearea and selected Nonna's. The outside has room for improvement, but many of the best food eateries are camouflaged by their exterior so we didn't get discouraged by this. When entering there is a deli styled warmer with the foods they serve for lunch. There are other things that can be ordered from a menu such as burgers and such. The lady at the counter told us this and what the specials of the day were. In the preprepared warmer they had two entrees and several veggies. I got the hamburger steak with gravy, okra, and mashed potatoes. My friend got Cajun pasta, okra, and peas. We both got tea. My food was bland. Not much flavor in the meat or gravy. The potatoes were real and handmade. Okra can't be messed up, or so I thought. My friends pasta was cold, even though it was in the warmer. Then they tried their okra, which they found hairs in. At this point we were both disgusted. The lady at the counter left for the back, so there was no one to talk to regarding food quality. I had eaten part of mine I didn't wait to ask for a refund, so we just left. My friend did comment they didn't say, "Enjoy your meal, because they knew it wasn't enjoyable." Spend your money somewhere you know you'll get what you're wanting. Because I would rather have spent my $30 on fast food.

    Wonderful buffet experience. You don't hear that from me, and likely anyone else very often, but in…read morethis case, it is the truth! I am not sure how I have never found this place before now, but I can tell you that everyone else has. This place was packed! Parking was a nightmare. I cut off a cop and stole his parking spot. Yea! Stick it to the man, Adam! Giant community tables full of buffet goers. I wasn't sure if I could find a seat. I was impressed by the size at that point and then realized on the way out there was a whole second floor as well. It is freaking huge! When you pay, there is a little old lady that douses your hands with sprays of sanitizer. I did not care to partake, she did not care, and insisted. We aren't buddies. You can see the stank face she gave me. I don't care though, hater gonna hate. The buffet is rich with country foods. I was in love from the jump. Fast moving buffet food is my jam. They had all the things I like and tons of other things you folks like. I made two trips, I barely got most of the second down so I didn't get to enjoy dessert. That's ok, I like protein way better than sweet things. Thank you Allah for statin drugs! I had all the fried things! Fried chicken livers are some of my faves, especially if there is mashed potatoes and gravy involved. The fried chicken itself was great. Hell it was all good. I see why it's so damn busy. I think it was like $16 maybe. That's with a drink and endless food and dessert. My server was such a sweet lady and the bus staff were great too. They made sure you didn't want for anything and never had a dirty plate in front of you. I will be back as soon as possible. Planning a visit now! '26 - 102

    While traveling from NC to TX, we drove through Jackson, MS, looking for lunch. We checked out Yelp…read moreand headed for Rooster's at 2906 N State St. We ordered country fried steak with coleslaw and green beans, and a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings. We also got an unsweetened tea, Diet Coke and homemade banana pudding. Everything was absolutely delicious. The country fried steak was crispy on the outside and hot on the inside and had plenty of gravy on top. Also, the gravy was exactly the right consistency. The coleslaw was excellent and the green beans were hot as well, and both were seasoned well. The unsweetened tea was very tasty and fresh. The burger was cooked to medium as requested. The bacon and cheese were great toppings as was the crisp lettuce and what tasted like local tomatoes. One of the best things about the burger was the homemade white bun--(also served with the country steak). It tasted like buns my mom used to make. The onion rings were hot and crispy, with a wonderful crunchy fried batter. Delicious! We haven't tried the pudding yet, but we'll update our review tonight when we try it out! Thank you to the hardworking and friendly service staff, cooks and owner. We will definitely be back in the future!

    My go-to in Fondren is always Pig & Pint. That's where we were headed on the way to Oxford, but…read morethey didn't have any water that day, so we ended up going up the road to Rooster's instead. What a great accidental find. Rooster's is absolutely awesome. I had the burger and onion rings and both were damn good. The burger was simple, cooked right, and exactly what a burger should be. The onion rings were thin, crispy, and really good. My daughter got the chicken tenders and they were massive. I mean actually massive. More importantly, they were delicious. The fries were hand cut and just as good. Service was friendly, the place had a cool neighborhood feel, and it filled up fast. Parking is definitely at a premium, so get there early if you can or be prepared to wait a little. This is one of those places we probably would not have found if everything had gone according to plan, and now I'm really glad it didn't. So thank you to whoever forgot to pay the water bill at Pig & Pint. Just kidding. Thank you to whatever public works person accidentally broke the main water supply and sent us down the road. Because Rooster's is legit, and we'll absolutely be back.
