Was sent the wrong order thru DoorDash. When calling the restaurant was told by Elana C that…read moreDoorDash makes the menu. Instead of trying to make it right she proceeded to hang the phone up on me. A total of Four times. The next day I called to speak with the manager and Shane backed up her behavior. I was not rude to either of them being in the customer service department myself I would have expected better and definitely not treat my customers that way. I would have definitely listened first especially when someone spending money. Even the Dasher was there and noticed that the order wasn't right and was willing to go back for the right food. She even witnessed the rudeness of Elana and suggested that I reported it to DoorDash in which I did. For that reason I will never spend my money with them again. For now on ai get my Steaks from the Huff.

Second time here I had the Philly Cheese Steak and in All of Mississippi it is the best I've had here, ranks up there with the ones in California/Philly/DC/NY(same size and quality, can't have a Philly that's tiny or in a hot dog bun. Like here has to be in a hoagie roll at least 10" or more.).

There was a very large party that had taken over the entire patio during our visit, so I completely understand why the kitchen and service may have been slower than usual. The frustrating part was the seating process. There were several open tables, but customers weren't being seated very quickly. We were a party of two, and the table we eventually sat at was empty for about 20 minutes before we were seated. There may have been a perfectly good reason for the delay, but nothing was explained to us. Once we were seated, the food was worth the wait. I would definitely recommend making a reservation and giving yourself plenty of time, especially if you're visiting during a busy evening. The building itself is also worth mentioning. The inside has a fun, unique atmosphere that's different from your typical restaurant and adds to the overall experience. I'd definitely eat here again because the food was so good. I'd just make a reservation next time and plan on not being in a hurry.

So close and yet so far…read more.. I guess I am spoiled having owned and operated several successful restaurants ( including a popular steak & prime rib house ), and owning a home in San Francisco where no doubt one can easily find amazing food served in amazing restaurants by classy staff who understand what delivering excellent service means... But, we do love our Laurel.....and I do love The Loft! Food gets 4 stars, atmosphere and "the experience" gets 2 stars... Tried The Loft last night for prime rib... 1. The cute as a button young hostess was chomping on her gum to the point it was annoying! Very sweet young lady, but chomping her gum with her mouth open as she talked, walked, sat you, etc. Issue number one here.... no manager on duty? No adult with a measure of class to advise her to spit out her gum.... and THIS is consistent with the tone of this rant & atmosphere..... her open mouth gum chomping is only a part of the issue at The Loft. 2. Prime rib meal was a great value and the quality of the meat appeared to be excellent. Correctly priced in my view! The portion was excellent. I ordered my cut medium-rare and it was served to me a perfect medium-rare..... but look at the photo I attached! Looks well done, huh? SEE ABOVE- my Prime Rib & Steak House did 5.5M a year in sales, we were experts at roasting high quality prime rib.... STOP DIPPING THE PRIME RIB IN AU JUS AS IT DOES TWO THINGS..... ONE, IT TOUGHENS THE MEAT AND TWO..... IT ELIMINATES THE BEAUTIFUL PINK/JUICY PRESENTATION OF A FRESHLY CUT SLICE OF MEAT. Do not make the same mistake that Hog Heaven makes... by cutting the prime rib in advance then storing it on a steam table.... need to slice prime rib "to order", and NEVER dip it in hot au jus as it toughens the meat and makes rare or medium-rare or medium meat look well done. Mt cut was on the tough side but only because I can tell the cook (sorry, not a chef ) dipped it in au jus to heat it up right before serving... it came out looking well done but it was in fact medium rare as ordered. The hot au jus toughened up the meat though, so you lose a few stars for that bad practice. SEE my other photo of my prime rib from my restaurant, never dipped in au jus, and look how nice and pink and juicy it is compared to what was served last night. At my steakhouse / prime rib restaurant I had a batch of baked potatoes coming out over the oven every 20 minutes during peak hours of operation to guarantee my patrons received a fresh and hot potato. Last night the server explained upon arrival to our table that the cook forgot to put in the potatoes so they may not have any in time for my dinner.... happily, by the time we were served the potatoes came out of the oven so mine was incredibly hot and fresh... and hopefully the owner reads this and adopts the "out of the oven every 20 minutes" practice. Reduces waste too... Salad was fresh and the portion size perfect... no complaints coming out of either end of me regarding the lettuce! :) Ok, now the bad part.... Turn up the air! Same complaint we had last year... the same complaint we heard from two tables near us..... your restaurant is TOO COLD and the icy air blows down on the hot food doing what? You guessed it.... making your food cold! No need to freeze your patrons... cool is ok, icy cold is not fun, not comfortable.... Your flatware, again.... is a joke. Come on... as I asked before... drive down to Hattiesburg and visit Longhorn and take note of their nice silverware and steak knives. SEE the photo? We are not prison inmates, this is not elementary school or a long-term care facility.... please provide your patrons with some decent, not cheap, flatware.... your choice of the cheapest flatware takes down your restaurants classy-level by 2 stars. Train your servers! Laurel is visited by hundreds of thousands of visitors a year to see the Home Town sites... and obviously many visit The Loft. One's impression of Laurel, in part, is formed by ones experience at each restaurant visited...yes we are small town, yes we are deep south... but lets train what class is! Please... Learn the wine menu, where each wine comes from, etc., and learn the stages of service that includes how to properly suggestive sell. Our server was great overall, but she did the usual " did you save any room for desert?" routine. To increase revenue, server quest check averages and tip averages, teach how to suggestive sell! After pre-bussing and then later removing dinner plates.... have them approach the table and say this... "I just tried our bread pudding and it was amazing! We make it fresh daily and the cheese cake too which, by the way, I had last night and it was incredible... can I bring you a slice? You're going to love it..." Is The Loft a nice place? Yes, but "nice" is relative... it's not "fancy nice". Lastly, men... take your hats off!

If I had any say in the matter, I'd pay to keep them open 24 hours because this is the kind of food you'll crave any time of day or night. As it says in the name, Country Hix specializes in boudin. Boudin is a sausage made of both meat and rice, with ground vegetables inside. I got a little of everything: regular boudin, smoked boudin, boudin ball, boudin rollup. For your information: * Regular boudin indeed tastes like a sausage casing with meat and rice inside. It's fairly plain, and mine tasted a little underdone. I far preferred the smoked boudin, which just brings that zing of smoked flavor with it and transforms the sausage into something divine. And it was perfectly done. (I admit that I added the plain boudin to compare the two, so they weren't thrown in simultaneously.) Unless someone in your family doesn't like it for some reason, get all your boudin links (about 1/2 lb each, they say) as smoked. * Boudin ball is wonderful. You may be familiar with stuffed jalapenos, where you put cream cheese and possibly meat inside a jalapeno, bread and deep-fry. Well, this is the opposite. You take some cheese and jalapeno and you wrap the meat around THAT, before breading and deep-frying the meat ball. Again, that inversion and priority on the boudin sausage transforms this dish. It's also the perfect amount of breading and fried to the perfect doneness. * Boudin rollup is, as Country Hix advises, similar to an egg roll but with boudin inside. I got the pepper jack variety, and can tell you it tastes like a small cheesesteak. Again, excellent. You can't go wrong with a ball or a rollup of your choice. When I called to see if they'd still be open, they asked if I wanted to place my order in advance. If you think your timing will be close to 5 PM, definitely do that. From my talk with the very friendly lady up front, I have no doubt they would hold your meal a few minutes past 5:00 as they clean up, as long as they can get it all cooked before then. My talk also tells me it's family-owned (not to mention the kids hanging out), which just adds even more stars to a rating that is already 5 stars. Pull off the highway, accelerate a little harder if you need, but get your fanny to Country Hix ASAP.
