We used to eat here all of the time. It's always a good time with friendly people and good food. I was in town and remembered that they used to sell that good French bread and I wanted to make poboys at home. I haven't been here in years and was crossing my finger that they still sold it. We have eaten many meals at this place and bought seafood to cook at home, they sell fresh seafood by the pound. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a very cool place to just hang out with friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was in luck, they still sold the bread! read more

I ordered 5 pounds of crawfish, never in my life have a had a baby full of baby crawfish (literally babies).ALL of the crawfish were OVERCOOKED! The worst ever experience. I suspect more of these issues: * Overcooked too long after boiling * Previously frozen or poorly stored * Late-season "field run" crawfish (smaller and tougher) * Mudbugs that sat too long before cooking * Reheated crawfish DO NOT BUY read more

Sal and Phil's - Overcooked baby crawfish - Seafood Near Me - Ridgeland, Mississippi

Really like Sal and Phil's. The royal reds are fantastic. Went there this past Saturday night. I have to say the service was not very good. Our waitress was assigned to a large group in the back room so she was not very attentive to us. Got my wife's order wrong had to send it back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The men's room was NASTY. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned since Jimmy Carter was president.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This place has all the potential in the world it just needs a super deep cleaning and some better management of the wait staff. Don't put some young kid in a room of 30 people and expect her to wait on other tables too. And write the order down. I'm not impressed with someone's memory ability read more

Start of with charbroiled oyster. You can get it 3 ways. Oyster is not 100% fresh but it is 150 mile from the coast. It doesn't taste fishy so it pass. Chef did a good job grilling the oyster, good flavor with the garlic and parmesan. Prices are pretty good. $25 for 12 so about $2/ oyster. Fried catfish and shrimp is excellent. Catfish is well seasoned and very crunchy. Good portion. Hush puppies are very crunchy on the outside too. The fish and hush puppies are still crunchy even you order to go. The red bean and rice taste a little weird. First several bite is sour. I don't know. Not ordering that again. Service is great, they always check in on you. You sit yourself and someone immediately come up and bring you drinks. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, superb service, great atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The value for price is not to be glossed over

Ordered a sack of crawfish for pickup on 5/2. Was quoted one price and when I went to pick them up was charged an additional $50. Very disappointed in Sal and Phil's. This is the 2nd time this has happened. Buyer beware. Will never buy from them again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, great atmosphere, lots of draft beer to choose from.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Get the Cigars and bbq shrimp.

I ordered 5 pounds of crawfish, 8 potatoes, 2 corn on the cob, and 4 sausages. My total ended up being $70.82, not in the least bit worth the price! Never in my life have a had a baby full of baby crawfish (literally babies), when I called and placed my order I wasn't given a disclaimer about the size of the crawfish or anything. Upon making it home I discovered a bag full of baby crawfish, not only were they super small, I had alot of crawfish heads in my bag, as if that wasn't enough ALL of the crawfish were OVERCOOKED! I called back and asked to speak to a manager and the female that answered the phone said ,"well that's because of the snow storm!" I haven't seen or heard of any other business selling overcooked baby sized crawfish to customers. I let the lady know that I still wanted to speak to the manager and she placed me on hold and hung up in my face. Unprofessional and rude. I immediately called back and the manager answered the phone, I told him that I ordered 5 pounds of crawfish and paid $70 only to get my bag and it be nothing but baby, overcooked crawfish in the bag. He was unapologetic and said that their was nothing he could do about the size, well how about warning people before they order? I asked what about my order being overcooked and mushy, he said ," for me to bring the crawfish back and he'd do his best to not overcook the new ones but the size wouldn't change." The other items were fine but, who's driving over 30 minutes for you to fix a order that should've been right in the first place? Just sad, save your money and go someplace else folks. read more

Sigh. Why. This review probably never had to happen but alas, here we are. First. Why. Why was the food so bad, careless, cold, and stale? Sal and Phil's used to be a restaurant that served delicious seafood, great sides and tasty salads and now... Not sure what that was. So let's be transparent, as usual, this was a takeout order and I ordered: Crabcakes with cocktail sauce and tartar sauce Salad with Italian dressing Shrimp basket with a baked potato and hush puppies Let's dive into it... The only good thing about this meal was the cocktail sauce and tartar sauce. Tasty, may be jarred, who knows. The crab cakes were horrible - cold and undercooked. They honestly tasted as though they were days old, being fishy and unseasoned. They were not crispy, they lacked anything resembling taste, and were just... wrong. The salad tasted like it was old, plastic, and was simply not fresh. The shrimp basket - guys, a baked potato is supposed to be baked, not microwaved over so that the inside is glassy and gluteny. The shrimp AND the hush puppies were hard and the shrimp were, for lack of a better term, ropey and stringy. These shrimp had to die for this meal. I feel bad for them. I am so disappointed, I don't even think you guys should get one star but here we are. Please, try and care about the food you actually send out. Good fish had to give up their little selves to be on plates so bad that it really was a fate worse than a bad fish fry. At this point I am trying to find the humor in this meal. Please, seriously, just do better. Thanks read more

I made my first visit to Sal And Phils for an early dinner Saturday evening. Place was pretty much empty given it was 4:15, so I seated myself. Waited about 5 minutes and my server, Emily B., brings me a menu and takes my drink order. I ordered the jumbo fried shrimp entree and picked the coleslaw and hushpuppies as my two sides. Didn't take long for my order to come out but the shrimp were fresh and hot. They were bigger than I anticipated, despite the menu calling them jumbo. I've learned lately with supply chain issues to just go with the flow as restaurants are trying hard to meet customers' demands. Shrimp were seasoned well and not over fried. The hushpuppies were good but got hard once they cooled off. The coleslaw could have been good but it had way too much pepper on it. I love black pepper but this was too much for me. I could only stand three bites of it before I called it quits. Service was good and I can see myself making a return trip to try other menu items. read more

I really hate to post negative reviews but after spending $100 on a meal not worthy of that I must. Sal and Phil's use to be a fabulous place to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I can overlook an interior that is old and in need of updating but food quality I can't.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered Royal Reds that came out rubbery with no flavor at all. My husband had grilled oysters that had a bad aftertaste and were over cooked. My grandson had a shrimp basket that he said was just ok. I was so disappointed! Our waitress was nice was the only plus. It doesn't have to be this way but it takes investing in your business and caring about what you put on the table. read more

Food was amazing, our server on the other hand, although sweet when she took our order, completely forgot we were even there. We had to ask two different people to get her so we could get our check and she still didn't get it for us another server did and he was really sweet. Maybe someone needs to remind Meghan W that some of your best tips can from that lil two top that she forgot about when that large table came in, because I, myself, am a server. Luke I said, she was sweet and very nice, but not attentive at all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the place itself, atmosphere was nice and laid back[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. This was the first time I had ever been there and the shrimp poboy is definitely fire!!! Would have given 5 starts if our server hadn't forgotten about us. read more

What the heck has happened to this place? It's been a couple years since we've been and it USED to be fantastic. Drinks took 20 minutes to get here. Food sucked BAD. I'll never be back unless they make serious changes. Worst meal I've had out in a long time. read more

I've been eating here on a regular basis since they opened years ago. The ambience is nothing to write home about, but the food is another story. The seafood rivals anything in New Orleans and their Po-Boys, on Gambino's bread is as good as any! Try the Special, roast beef, gravy, ham and Swiss cheese! Just ask for extra napkins! Their fried shrimp are some of the best I've ever eaten. Their crawfish etouffee is the best you can get since Bon Ton in New Orleans closed. read more

Had take out a few nights ago. Redfish zoo Boy was tasty if messy. The bread pudding was inedible.

I've been going to Sal and Phil's on and off my whole life! I last went 4 years ago before this visit and was not disappointed. We split a seafood platter, and I ordered a side salad and cup of gumbo. The gumbo was tasty and had a nice light kick. The fried shrimp and catfish were crispy. The boiled shrimp were fresh. Great service from Shiann. read more

We have been to Sal and Phil's a few times and have had an awesome experience. But, today it was awful. We waited over 30 minutes and I finally got my crawfish minus the sausage: all lukewarm. My husband ordered the chargrilled oysters and after 45 minutes, we asked when he would receive his order? No answer. We had to ask twice for our beers (she was in the kitchen just talking). The waitress and cook could have cared less. We paid our tab and told them to keep the oysters. We will not be back. read more

Must have been good since I got food delivered from here two nights in a row. Second night was the best with the royal red shrimp, which I absolutely will order when I can find them. These are the best shrimp you can eat. They are deep water shrimp and feed like lobsters and taste like lobster. These were pretty good to have been delivered and being so far inland. The first night I had grilled shrimp with vegetables and they were also very tasty but not royal reds. All In all this is a good place. I personally enjoyed the food I ordered from here. read more

Had the muffuletta and it was one of the best I've had. I'll definitely be going back to sample the rest of the menu!

It's a nice "Hole in the Wall" type of place. The servers were super nice and courteous. The drinks tasted great and were strong. The food was a little more bland than I had expected, but the butter aided in the taste a little. I had the Royal Shrimp and although the size and amount were good, the shrimp and potatoes I ordered were a little less flavored than I expected. There were a few things that were on the menu and not in stock, but this could've been due to the fact that it was towards the end of the day. One part of my meal was also placed on someone else's plate. Overall good place, great atmosphere, good service. I would recommend however, better seasoning of the food if possible. Overall I would go again because of the great service and atmosphere, but possibly order something else! read more

worst muffuletta in the state, the olive salad is a joke & bread is stale. Do not order this sandwich

This is frankly the worst f*king shrimp Po boy I've ever had in my LIFE. I don't know whether I should stick a finger in my throat to throw it back up, or cut a hole in my stomach to retrieve the contents because this shit is disgusting and bland. Oh they also charge $0.50cents PER topping (2 thinly sliced tomatoes, a sprinkle of old lettuce, and 2 drops of remoulade on each half). I don't normally write reviews, but this is just B. A. D. It's so disappointing to come all the way from NYC to taste such a disgusting sandwich. I'm APPALLED. read more

My wife and I ate there last Saturday night. Our server was fantastic. She was atttentive to all needs! The wife ordered the Fried Catfish and Shrimp basket which came with baked potato and two hush puppies and salad. 4 Large Fingers and 6 shrimp. I ordered the large Royal Reds which came with 3 red potatoes and a small boiled corn. 12 RR. We thoroughly enjoyed everything. The RR shrimp were Huge! Her Fried Fish were also delicious. Our only issue was that the butter was whipped.. not the real kind. Other than that, it was great. In and out in 45 minutes for 50.00 total plus tip. Highly recommend this place for great service and seafood. read more

First experience here. Came in 2 hours before closing and was told that the bar was no longer in service and that if we wanted to order we needed to order in the next 15 mins before the kitchen closed. Unacceptable customer service from the wait staff. Was treated very poorly. Food was great, but when the customer service is lacking, it makes me not want to return. read more

My friend and I were craving oysters and seafood. We were not disappointed. The oysters were fresh and salty. We quickly plowed through the first dozen and had to order another dozen. Since crawfish just came into season, I ordered the crawfish boat, which was several pounds of crawfish and some corn. I was a little disappointed that there was no sausage, but the crawfish were cooked and spiced perfectly. They came out of the shells with ease and they were spicy, but not overly hot. Just thinking about them right now makes me want to go back for more. My friend had the crab legs, and the first batch that came out were a little over cooked and wouldn't come out of the shells. The waitress immediately took the plate and shortly came back with more (including an extra cluster) that were cooked perfectly. The service is exceptional! The atmosphere is very casual, and could us a little bit of a refresh, but the food makes up for any deficiency with the atmosphere. read more
