We stayed here and ate here. We had dinner on a Thursday night. Food was excellent. I had the asparagus soup, chicken piccata and bread pudding. My boyfriend had the gumbo, catfish, and trifle. Everything was wonderful. They were very busy with a large party but they kept us updated throughout the meal so it was alright. We had breakfast here too which was pretty good. Rooms are nice and they have a beautiful pool. We enjoyed our stay here. Staff is very, very friendly and welcoming. read more

This was a pricey restaurant for what you get. The food was good, but the place is worn-down And needs attention. First of all, there was a table of 4 near us and they had to move because an AC vent was dripping down a woman's back. She still had to move her chair from the dripping once she changed tables. A mosquito was flying around our table. They were out of sweet potatoes and broccoli that were on the menu with service when they opened. Two people got 4 tiny slivers of bread before their meal; when asked for a refill, they were "out"!? I guess they need some serious help with menu-planning. read more

The food was mediocre at best. The steaks were not cooked to what we had requested. The waitress was very nice and was just doing a fantastic job. However, when we got our food my wife and I tried it and her steak was requested to be medium rare and came out rare. My steak came out and I requested medium, when it came out it was halfway in between medium rare and medium. My wife asked for her steak to be done a little longer and it came out a little more done not much, but tasted terrible. I don't know if they just threw it on a hot spot or put something on it but I took a bite and it was absolutely disgusting. When we finally got the check it wasn't what we expecting. We were not told that we would have to pay three different fees such as: a food tax, a gift shop tax (I don't know what is considered from the gift shop) but we didn't get anything that we know of, then there was a processing tax. We didn't pay with card so I'm not sure why that was on there. Absolutely terrible. I don't recommend unless you want friendly staff and untold of fees. read more

We have dined at Cafe Anchuca for over 10 years and the food and service is always superb. Our dinner was delicious and we ate every bite. Lovely wine selection too. If you are in Vicksburg, Mississippi, you must come for dinner and or Sunday brunch. read more

My husband and I went here for dinner Monday night. It is by far the best meal I have ever had in Vicksburg. Ashley did an AMAZING job on every single thing we ordered. I had the special which was a 6 oz filet, small order of shrimp and grits, and a side (I chose broccoli and cheese). The filet was cooked perfectly (medium rare) and had so much flavor! The shrimp and grits were the best I've ever had, and I've had a lot in my lifetime. Even the broccoli and cheese was delicious. Not the nasty Velveeta concoction. My husband had the pork tenderloin and it had a wonderful smoky taste and was so tender and moist. The special was $35 and the pork tenderloin was $22. Well worth it!!! Next time we're going to save room for dessert! read more

The chicken piccata was wonderful! My sister has lamb chops, the best ever. Our waitress was also excellent. Definitely worth the money.

This is a restaurant that is worth a trip to Vicksburg. Service was excellent and the nightly specials were fantastic. I had the steak, my girlfriend had the scallops, both were great. My girlfriend had the Bloody Mary and said it was excellent. We also enjoyed the bread and even asked for a refill. read more

Absolutely great meal. Lots of good flavors. I had the Shrimp and Grits. My husband had Chicken Picante. Garlic bread was to die for. Server was excellent. Watched her mixing drinks for another table and they mentioned the drinks were the best they'd ever had. Small quaint and tucked away. Thanks read more

Great setting! Had to make a reservation due to COVID, which was not a big deal at all. They have a simple Menu, but what they have on it is delicious. I had the surf and turf (shrimp & grits) and my wife had the pasta. The steak was cooked perfectly and had some of the best flavors I've ever had. Food took a little bit to get to us, but it wasn't a big deal as the environment is great, the food is amazing, and the service is outstanding! read more

This by far one of the best restaurants I've had the pleasure of going to. The service was great and the food was flawless every single bite. We are on a road trip to Destin and our discussion has been how blown away we are about how amazing the food was! Must try!!! read more

What a special treat in Vicksburg. Great for a date night. The food is to die for! Steaks are always amazing and fork tender. I had the lamb chops which were equally delicious. Cocktails were well made and your surroundings are beautiful. Hoping to talk my husband into staying at the bed and breakfast soon. read more

Best restaurant in Vicksburg. Chef Ashley knows her way around a filet, you can cut it with a butter knife. Historic location, attentive service. My favorite gumbo in town. Good for Sunday lunch/brunch. Great date night. Great any time night. read more

We just enjoyed the Sunday Brunch which had the most perfect combinations at very reasonable prices. For around $16, I had gumbo with cheese grits, biscuits with piminto cheese, salad, white chocolate bread pudding and coffee. The biscuits were light and not greasy at all. Portions were perfectly sized. The other selections chosen by others at our table were equally interesting and well-balanced. Kudos to Anchuca. I never miss coming here when I am in town and will try the other brunch items next time. read more

We were pleasantly surprised with Cafe Anchuca. Heard nice things about it, aside from it "being haunted" lol. Last Sunday my husband and I decided to try it for brunch. The brunch menu changes week to week. It was a quaint, clean, friendly environment--can see it being romantic depending on lighting in the evening. Husband had the pot roast and I have the quiche Lorraine and the champagne punch. It was all delicious. We were also pleased with pricing. Included with whichever choice you went with, the price included a salad, a side and dessert! Would go back:) read more

Like many of the other reviews say, go here. This is a small quaint place. The food is so full of flavor, well conducted and rich. We headed in for brunch. It is a small menu but still very appealing. We ordered quiche Loraine and shrimp with grits, all delicious. The coffee is great, made with cinnamon. The service was very professional. Thanks David! My only concern was after the first cup of awesome coffee, the second didn't taste anything like the first, watered down and no cinnamon. I would highly recommend! Don't wear jeans or flip flops. read more

There really isn't another restaurant in a 100 miles radius that compares with Anchuka - even if it was sitting in the middle Jackson, it would still beat most restaurants for creative cuisine, romance and fantastic service. read more

Anchuca is by far the BEST kept secret for high-end restaurants in Vicksburg. If you are looking for excellent food AND a great ambiance, this is the place! Their seafood chowder is amazing, the filet is wonderful, and the atmosphere is great, as you are located in the bottom floor of a beautiful historic Bed and Breakfast. Cozy and romantic and delicious! They have a full bar and excellent wine list. You won't want to be in a hurry if dining here because it is just a beautiful place to enjoy a high quality meal with friends or a romantic dinner with your significant other. The Sunday Brunch is absolutely wonderful! If you are planning a weekend getaway in Vicksburg you'll want to include a nice dinner or Sunday brunch at Anchuca in your agenda. Please make a reservation though, you never know when the house will be packed! read more

Had the 9 ounce filet - so tender. Etouffee was full of shrimp and other delicacies. Margarita from scratch perfect. Ambiance sweet. Highly recommend. We'll be back. read more

Mom and I stayed the night at the Anchuca and were absolutely delighted by the breakfast. We were served a ham and asparagus egg tart, a beautifully fluffy biscuit, a cup of seasonal fruit, and the best damn cheese grits I've EVER had. If for nothing else, come to try their cheese grits. They are phenomenal. I have no desire to know how much butter, cheese, and other fatty ingredients may be in them... I just want to eat them every day. It was a lovely breakfast with a little bit for people with all varieties of taste. This is unreasonably picky, but I'd love if Cafe Anchuca began carrying raw sugar (i.e., turbinado sugar) for coffee and tea. It's less processed and has such a rich flavor. And yes, the coffee was good. read more

I really should have mentioned this one before now but we're so busy traveling. This quaint old home is an historical landmark and b& b but we visited for brunch on Sunday and it was very good. The host is a charming man and fits the part of the old southern host. I say that with affection because I'm probably older. The wife had the pork tenderloin which was outstanding and smoky. Just the right portion of salad and side of roasted potato. I had the shrimp and grits. So I'm a southern boy and honestly the grits were good but a little dry. Maybe I'm new to Shrimp and grits , I'll admit but I like mine less firm than what I'm had. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious, and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. All in all a great stop if you're in Vicksburg and the architecture is always nice to see. We come thru a lot so I will definitely stop here again, the locals seem to enjoy it as well and there are a few colorful characters always enjoying the atmosphere. Enjoy and thank you for showing people how a good restaurant is run. My compliments to the cook who also had a most impressive bread pudding. Yumm read more

The food and service were absolutely superb and the atmosphere was perfect. I enjoyed dinner and fully recommend Anchuca without any hesitation....you'll find it amazing...it will be memorable! -A very satisfied customer from Connecticut read more

It was a great experience we had dinner in the main house and it was beautiful the food was delicious! The staff was amazing!

Delish, home style food that you wouldn't normally go to the trouble to make at home! Every dish, down to the dessert and drinks was fantastic! The steak is to die for, but boy the catfish gives it a run for it's money. We also stayed at the bed and breakfast, the breakfast was also perfection! I wish there was a comparable restaurant back in Seattle, but I guess I'll have to come back just for the food! 5/5 would go here again! read more

Had a great dinner. Atmosphere is wonderful. Staff is very friendly and attentive. The food was prepared perfectly and tasted wonderful. The fifth star would be there but for the somewhat slow arrival fo dinner. No appetizers, and dinner came about an hour after ordering. read more

I had the smoked trout with green beans and creamed spinach. It was all excellent. Ordered the mixed salad as an "appetizer". Very fresh salad. My companions had the filet (6 and 8 oz) with the mashed potatoes and gravy, one had the broccoli with cheese and the other the green beans. They both said the fillet was so tender and of the best they have ever had! The wine was excellent. We had a Cabernet and Malbec. They have a small bar with top shelf spirits. For dessert, we had the peach cobbler and the gluten-free layered dessert - chocolate flourless brownie with mascarpone cheese and a chocolate mousse. They were both excellent although more cobbler was wanted for the large sweet tooth! ;) read more

I have had three meals in this restaurant, two breakfasts with my stay, and a dinner my first night in Vicksburg. The breakfasts both days included cheesy grits, fruit, orange juice and coffee or tea. The first day's entree was a small bacon and egg biscuit with an extra slice of bacon, while the second day we had a breakfast casserole with a small biscuit on the side. The cheesy grits were new to this Oregon boy, and I came away a believer. For dinner, I splurged, having their "Surf and Turf": gulf shrimp and glazed beef filet medallions. It was delicious. I heartily recommend.Cafe Anchuca to anyone eating out in Vicksburg. read more

Excellent staff, very friendly. They had two large groups coming in this night and had only a limited prefix menu but accommodated us with some regular menu items. Started with the comeback shrimp - excellent taste overall but was overcooked (which made It rubbery). I had the filet and shrimp(didn't know it was comeback again). The filet was delish but was not warm- great topping was the sautéed onion which took the steak over the top. Potatoes were really good. Wife had the catfish which was very good also but too much rosemary flavor. Overall good, not great but will cut them some slack because they were accommodating two large groups. read more

We stayed here for 2 nights. Very friendly and competent staff. The main house is beautiful and very welcoming. Lots of antiques,17th century decor and interesting history. There is a lovely pool and the entire property is quaint and relaxing. There was an outstanding dinner menu that included catfish, pork, chicken Parmesan and Shrimp with cheesy grits as entrees. Portions were generous. No chance you could leave feeling hungry! As guests, we enjoyed a delicious hot breakfast each morning. The entire property is charming, clean, comfortable and full of character read more

The building is historical and very lovely. The food was great. I had mushroom ravioli it was only 2nd to my wife's home made. My family had surf and turf and curry chicken salad and they loved it. The pecan pie was good but for me to little filling and to much grenache. read more

Picture it: Valentines Day, 9:37pm, it's raining. Our reservations were for 8pm. We ordered our meal at 8:40pm (the second we finally got a waiter). Still no food. The restaurant is closed. Happy Valentines Day. Also, no bread. No drinks. No wifi. read more

Outstanding house, great food, wonderful people! Enough said! But yelp won't let me post anything that short:-). So we stayed for two nights, during the Vicksburg water outage of May 2017. The staff and Mr. Tom bent over backward to make us comfortable and well taken care of. Making a special trip to store for ice for cocktails in the evening and pre -boiling water for our coffee in the morning and caring for every need in between! So again -- Outstanding house, great food, wonderful people! Enough said! read more

Wonderful experience! Awesome service and good food and cocktails- we will return soon.

I mulled over this for a bit. We were staying in Vicksburg. Not for any other reason except it was about a halfway point to where we were going. We looked online for a place for dinner and read some reviews and I have to say that I was disappointed. I don't know if it was the owner or manager that sat us but he was nice enough. He highly recommended A special that was a small fillet with their shrimp and grits. He called it a combination platter. If you got the steak it came with a side of a vegetable.When it came I was just really surprised at how small the portions were. I mean sometimes fine dining has ridiculously small portions but in this case I didn't consider it exactly fine dining. It was a steak that was covered and seasoning. It was moderately tender. It was a very small fillet and it was over done but no one ever came back to check on us so we just ate it. I did ask the waitress when I finally tracked her down to refill my tea, which I hate, where is the vegetable? She said oh if you get the combination you don't get the vegetable. Their vegetables come in a small ramekin which I saw at another table. For the price we paid, $35 each, you could've put that teeny ramekin of vegetables. The food tasted OK. It wasn't anything I would write home about, and at $35 per plate I did not think it was worth the price. Maybe we would've been happier if we just ordered an entrée off of the menu. In addition to the food the restaurant is in a somewhat sketchy area and the parking is terrible. We saw the sign for the restaurant and pulled into the drive and there are maybe three parking places and they were completely full. The only way to get out is to back out the driveway that is quite long. I would not go back. read more

We stumbled upon this place for lunch and we ended up staying (it's also a B&B). Lunch was fabulous we had the chicken salad sandwich and asparagus bisque and potato salad. The chicken salad was very fresh, it had raisins and very well cooked chicken. It was moist and slightly sweet. The potato salad was excellent. The potatoes were done to perfection not overcooked and not too crunchy. The salad was well seasoned and very enjoyable. The asparagus soup was very rich and satisfying. The dessert we had was Bonzo Cake. It is a gluten free chocolate cake with a layer of cream cheese/mascarpone and then chocolate mousse on top with a drizzle of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce and whipped cream. The cake was absolutely divine and very rich. The service was excellent. Everyone we met was very gracious. We will come back as often as possible. read more

We had dinner reservations. We waited an hour and a half at our table with only water before our food arrived. We actually filled our own water glasses from time to time. There were only four other tables and only one waitress. Our waitress was nice and kept saying she didn't know what the hold up was. When our food finally arrived it was very good but with the ridiculous wait, I can't give it any more stars than two. Maybe a legitimate excuse or a bread basket would have made me give one more star. read more

The reviews were spot on. The filet melts in your mouth. Spinach and roasted potatoes are awesome. If you are not an asparagus person, don't be afraid of the bisque, it is really good -- I am an asparagus person, to be transparent. read more

Wonderful food and atmosphere! Everything was outstanding. The asparagus bisque is a must, along with the shrimp tortellini. Not a place to miss if you come to Vicksburg! read more

This place is small and unexpected, but the food was very good. I had the shrimp and grits and spent my meal very happy. If you are expecting a period setting because it's located next an antebellum house you may be disappointed because the dining area is more of a ground level add-on. The food is just fine. Its not a large menu but ask about specials. read more

This cafe has style, a great atmosphere, a classy feel, wonderful service, and fantastic food. The menu is limited, but it is by design. They do a handful of things extremely well. The asparagus soup is the best I have ever eaten. The bongo cake was sinfully good. Save room for dessert! read more
