    Oby's is located in Oxford, MS. Home of the University of Mississippi . The food is delicious and comes in large portions. Good service, very quick. The ambiance is quite beautiful.

    Super Spud + extras

    Never disappoints. I just love their "if it's on our menu we can add it" for their spuds. Service is great, it's always packed in there, which says something and the ambiance is very family friendly!

    This place was very good. LOTS of options and the food came out very quick despite how busy it was! All of the staff were very nice and accommodating. Very casual atmosphere - walk up and order and then seat yourself.

    Super great food. My favorite place to get chicken in town. However sometimes it can be a little slow. And the waiters are kinda in and out.

    5 stars (on the counter service scale) Had the shrimp po-boy and the gumbo; both very good. Would go back today-if I was in Starkville.

    If you like greasy food that doesn't even remotely taste like authentic Cajun cuisine, you'll love Oby's!

    I was in the area for classes and told myself I had to try LandShark Seafood before heading back…read morehome -- and I'm glad I did. I ordered the LandShark rolls, Boudin egg rolls, Bayou Mac, and a southern-style catfish. Let me just say... this spot was VERY good. Now the real star of the show? The LandShark rolls Soft, cheesy, packed with crawfish -- man... these were dangerous lol. I'm almost glad I didn't come here earlier during my trip because I would've been eating these every single day. No question. The Bayou Mac was also on point -- rich, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering again. Honestly, I had no complaints about anything I tried. The restaurant was pretty packed, which tells you everything you need to know. But if you're in a rush, they've got a food truck-style pickup outside, so you can grab your food and keep it moving. If you're anywhere near Oxford or Mississippi State and craving seafood, this is a must-try spot. Nothing but positive vibes from me -- I'd definitely come back. Thumbs up all around

Sausage & boiled eggs with the crawfish, and I can't remember what the appetizer we had was called, but sort of like a squishy baby lobster roll and I could eat them every day for life. Drinks were good, service excellent. Oxford favorite, for sure!!

The table had ordered a fried pickles but it was a bit too salty for me. The catfish was great, seemed pretty fresh and it didn't have any metallic taste. The sweet potato casserole was just the right amount of sweet and savory. I was going between the catfish and sweet potato to balance out the flavors. The fried okra was a bit bland and definitely needed the sauce. The service was great - attentive and gave great advice on food options. The interior fits the diner appearance and everything looked pretty clean and tidy. Other people in the party enjoyed their poboys and hash brown casseroles.

Heard we had to try Ajax, the diner, not the soap. We stopped in for lunch before heading to Nashville airport to come home. The diner is about what you'd expect inside. Old, kitschy and full of decor. We sat in a booth an were greeted by a waitress promptly for drink orders. Cokes and waters. They deliver the coke in a neat Ajax cup. I ordered the chicken fried steak. Wife ordered the chicken and dumplings and step son ordered catfish. Everything arrived very quickly and everything was hot and southern deliciousness, except the corn bread. The corn bread was dry and not very good at all. Pretty sure it was yesterday's leftover bread or someone needs to pull it 5 minutes sooner from the oven. Unanimous at the table, Everton e had garb corn bread. No big deal. The chicken fried steak was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Gravy was great and the red beans and rice side was awesome. All great flavors. Wife loved the chicken and dumplings, good flavor and tender chicken. She got a side of sweet potato casserole and loved it. I had a bite and it was delicious for certain. Step son had the fried catfish, he is not a big seafood eater but he absolutely loves the catfish. I had a big piece and it was cooked perfectly and tasted great as well. The staff was outstanding, the service was great and the food was excellent sans the cornbread. Ajax is a neat little diner in the heart of Oxford. It's a little pricey as is everything in this college town, but it was worth the visit.
