Came here with my son-in-law after the egg bowl. We were able to be seated immediately in the back area booths near the beer wall. I decided to try the Red Beans and Rice (red beans marinated for 24 hours, simmered with sausage, ribeye, and vegetables, and served over rice). While the ribeye added to the traditional dish, I was not a fan of the overall end result. It actually seemed like the whole dish had been cooked for 24 hours until there was almost no moisture left. The rice part was fine. My son-in-law decided to try the fried catfish I had been considering. While cooked well and had good flavor, the batter was not the expected cornmeal style normally associated with fried catfish. They were also out of the particular beer he had been wanting to try. After multiple attempts to pick one from the menu, the server said it might be easier to show you what we do have on tap. Service on this visit also left a lot to be desired. From the delay taking the order, having to flag a server down for drink refills and even to get the check. It was not busy enough to cause the service we received. We had been before with my daughter and wife and had a much better experience. So I am not sure if things have gone downhill or just an anomaly. The burger I had on the previous visit was very good and the Rosey Chips (house made potato chips) were pretty good too. My daughter is a big fan of their fried pickles appetizer. Will. Give them another shot, yes but there are plenty of other options we will likely go to first. read more

I hadn't been there since the mid-90s. It was ok but not special at all and I likely wouldn't go back until about 30 more years. The food was not bad and the service was not bad. Nothing was amazing at all though. read more

I have never left a review before, but this service was the worst I have ever had. Took 45 minutes of sitting at a table for someone to come by, and took another 35 minutes to get our drinks after placing the order. Took over two hours to get our food that we ordered as soon as we put our drinks in. Manager came by to ask how our service was and we were honest about how awful it was, to which she did nothing. Food/drinks weren't even good. 3 other tables were occupied when we got there, all others were empty. Do not come here. read more

Service was great but the food was terrible, clumpy rice and poor seasoning was consistent across all of our plates. The atmosphere was great but that's about it. read more

Rosey Baby - The Crawfish Etouffee has clumpy rice and taste nothing like seafood. Everyone tried it at the table did not like it. - Bars Near Me - Starkville, Mississippi

The staff was great, the decor is fun, and with plenty of TVs, it's a great option for game day. Some have complained about slow service, but we arrived right after they opened and didn't have to wait long. The food tasted decent, but although we thought we ordered a variety, everything seemed to have a similar texture and flavor. read more

Food tasted as if it was reheated from the previous day. The price was higher than normal as well.

Everything about this place was awful The food was not good and expensive And it wasn't just me 6 of us went to eat The dessert was $12 wow It took a long time to get our food Just horrible service period read more

My food came out cold. And there was no soap in the bathroom. I let one of the workers know. I went back to the bathroom before I left and there was still no soap. Very disappointing. read more

The food was decent. The service was so awful...waited over an hour to get food at a slow time. Server rarely checked on us...hard to get his attention. Everyone seemed unorganized and didn't know what to do. It was hard to just get refills. The people next to us waiting over 20 min after being seated to even get their drinks. read more

Love the food! Service is great. Owner is also very kind and exceeds expectations of what it means to run a business and interact with customers to keep them coming back. The specials are awesome for college students, happy hour, and for those looking for an affordable and delicious meal for their family. I love the inside. There are literally TV's in the booth and visible throughout. It's also my favorite place in Starkville for outdoor dining. read more

Service was slow and the already generated tip was too high but food was great and the atmosphere of the place was very comfortable.

Went out to lunch here with my daughter, food was fair. Nice atmosphere, good place for quality time. Great service. A little pricey.

No some of the reviews were not that great and I found prices to high for my fixed income. If the reviews weren't so bad. That was a shame. The photos of food looked good though..so honestly it's price that really made up my mind read more

We went there tonight for a birthday celebration and food was good and service was okay. But we ordered beignets to go, we got home and immediately when we opened the box got a horrible fishy smell so we tried a bite and it tasted like straight fish. Extremely disappointed. read more

Service was slow and food was unseasoned and way overpriced. The atmosphere was cool but remember there are no free refills and a card charge fee. read more

Rosey Baby - a plate of food with shrimp and asparagus - Bars Near Me - Starkville, Mississippi

This place doesn't deserve one star. Food was not fit to feed to a pig! What wasn't burnt was so salty you couldn't eat it. Took them three tries to get one of the orders right and then it was burnt. The fish platter is not a platter it was one piece of fish with dry white rice. The drinks were watered down and took forever to get. I don't know how a place like this can stay in business read more

We were the only people there. It was me,3 other people, and a baby. It took almost an hour and a half just to bring our food. It took 45 minutes just to get our appetizers! The food tasted very bland but looked so good! There was only one waitress and she did try her best I will give her that! The place is very pretty and I like the atmosphere of it. I would not go back again though. read more

Food is always wrong or bad. Don't even try to get the Mac and cheese, got it at least once a month for over a year cause it was really good once but it was never good again. It was curdled and sour. The restaurant is also dirty and really needs an upgrade, you can tell it's an old place and not in a cute way. It's a shame that the owners are so awful to the employees. I have overhead and had several employees talk about a Lisa and an Ashley and how awful they are. Specifically that Ashley is a bully and Lisa is just crazy. They are much better places in Starkville to spend money and support, hell even supporting Taco Bell is better than supporting a bad business. read more

told us crawfish would be ready at 5-30 to 6. Get the restaurant and they tell us 7-30 so we wait and order appetizers patiently. they don't tell u a designated end up leaving at 8-40 the place closes at 10. it sucked truly. read more

this was probably the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant service was terrible food was terrible. waitress was a complete idiot messed up all of our checks 3 times. fuck this place do not go here read more

Seated. Waitress forgot about us. Got appetizers after 30 min. Cold. Forgot us again. Out of bread so no poboys. Got entrées after 45 min. Cold. Watched people who arrived after us finish their meal and leave before we got entrées. Gave us no reason to return. read more

This is the best place to come in Starkville. Food is amazing, drinks are good, and service is perfect. Nicest waiters ever, definitely recommend this place! read more

Low Country Boil was the only thing worth ordering for food. The beer was cold and fresh.

Worst experience I have ever had..thirty minutes after ordering raw oysters we were told there were none....20 more minutes before we could place our order. Forty more minutes and we still did not have our food. We asked for the owner to come over and speak with us because he had spoken to us when we entered the restaurant. We wanted to tell him what was going on with us and how long we had been waiting. He blamed the delay on the ordering gator poor boy because he had to cook 300 pounds of chicken wings that night. If some menu items are going to be delayed for the wings they should tell us in advance. He came back and said our food would be out soon and told us that it was on the house since we hade berated him for five minutes. We chose to leave at this time. There was no good excuse for such poor service. read more

One of my go-to places in Starkville. A little slow on food but it's good when it finally gets there. Great beer selection!! read more

The service was good. Half of my fries were burnt (inedible) and my burger was really tough. Cute place but the booths were super uncomfortable. Probably won't go back read more

We went to Rosey Baby for a late lunch and some drinks before the Kentucky game. No matter what I thought about my dining experience here, it was more then 10 better than the product State put on the field that night. The restaurant was pretty slow, so it was a surprise why it took more than 5 minutes for someone to take our drink orders and 10 minutes from then to get our drinks. They have a large selection of beers on tap at reasonable prices, so they have that going for them. After a while, our server took our order, and we had another drink while waiting for our food. There are TV's at each table so we could watch football while waiting...and we were able to watch a lot of football. A good hour after arriving, our food finally got to our table. My wife and daughter got the Chicken Platter with gumbo instead of Mac and cheese. It was basically a chicken tender plate. The chicken was a little over cooked, but they said it tasted fine. My daughter's boyfriend got the Cajun Quesadilla, he said it was fine. I got the Rosey Burger, and I was not overly enthusiastic about. One corner of the burger (it had a square patty) was missing, and I think it was a mostly forgettable burger. All the dishes came "Rosy Fries" which are basically fried potatoes cut like potato chips. Mine were soggy and cold. On the bright side, the fried pickles were good. I liked the atmosphere of the place, and I see how it would appeal to college students. However, I don't know if I'd go here to eat again. I would come here for a few beers before the game, and if State keeps playing the way they did last night, I'd need to come early to prepare and come after the game to forget. read more

Good food and great service! They are friendly, courteous and very attentive. Plus, the price is right!

We had such a good experience in the back room with our bartender Ellie! We had a huge group and she handled us basically alone. She was so much fun and handled our craziness!! 10/10 recommend! Ask for Ellie!!! read more

I have been coming here for the last 10 years. At first it was ok. A good place to come get some crawfish when I didn't feel like cooking my own. The shrimp were good to. We started having bad experiences with wait times and the quality of the food. Last time I went was almost 2 years ago and after I waited for 2 hours and got cold crawfish that had a terrible taste and my wife's shrimp had a strange taste I swore I wouldn't go back. I guess I forgot how bad it was and decided to try it again this weekend. Same story. The wait was ridiculously long. The shrimp my wife got were cold and not tasty at all. My crawfish were Lukewarm with absolutely 0 flavor. None whatsoever. The potatoes and corn had no seasoning on them. I guess they are just boiling everything in plain water now. The only good thing we had was the onion flower. We will never be back read more

Atmosphere was great, staff was relatively friendly - could have been a little more attentive to refills. Cajun wrap was amazing - Rosey fries - burnt. read more

Was not as expected, food was not great, barely good. Service was ok, a bit slow. Place acceptable but not real clean. It was really a disappointment, was a great place a few years ago. read more

Great service but absolutely the worst oysters I have had. Maybe the cook thought they needed to be burned and over cooked? Great seasoning but small and not worth the price at all. This is my second time here and will not return for their oysters ever. read more

Favorite restaurant in Starkville! Amazing staff, food, and environment. 10/10 would recommend

I visited Rosey baby for crawfish because i heard they were good. They were HORRIBLE. they had a funny smell like they were spoiled, dry, rubbery and i'm almost positive they WERE old mixed in with some(not many) new ones. I will never go back, when i drive past i speed up. THE worst i've ever had. We sat outside and it was DIRTY. read more

Glad I came back for a 2nd chance. 1st visit wasn't too great. ( Fried Shrimp and Rosey Fries were a bit too crisp. $3 Martini night enticed me to return. Tried the blackened shrimp poboy, and it was divine. Just the right seasoning and shrimp cooked to perfection. Rosey Fries were much improved. Great service as well. I'll be back! read more

Awesome food, fun atmosphere, and a Cajun fanatics dream. Got the shrimp po-boy and it was very good.
