    The best seafood boil joint in the area. The Wharf offers a decent selection of boiled seafood with crawfish, shrimp, royal red shrimp, snow crab and Dungeness crab. They also offer fried seafood options, poboys, burgers & chicken tenders. They also actually add some spice to the food unlike most other spots in the area. This is a simple place with dine in tables or carryout options. The ambiance is a typical dive seafood joint with a market selling other useful items and acessories for your seafood feasting. This place seems to stay busy and there seems to be a few people constantly in line here typically but the line moves fast. Overall this is one of the best options in the area for seafood.

    We went for lunch - Our server was so sweet and friendly…read more The chicken salad in a pineapple boat was delicious and served with fruit. I would definitely order that again. We shared beignets- save room! They're amazing!!

To see across the dining room one has to shield one's eyes with one's hands.... Paint the walls gray, and put some shades on those bright lights! Best to ask for the other dining room which has a much better environment for your eyes and senses. Flatware is the CHEAPEST sold to restaurants, terrible, just like the cheap flatware used by The Loft. Server was friendly for sure but not professional. None of the servers could tell you anything about any of the wines... except for the difference in color! Owners, teach your staff about the wine list! Your servers should know what a Malbec is and that it's from the Mendoza region in the Andes of Argentina, for example. We each had a dish that included a flatiron steak. Sadly our steaks were incredibly tough and chewy. I was able to eat ZERO of it... first bite... chew chew chew until it arrived at its destination, in a paper napkin. Same outcome for bites two and three.... Both ended up in my napkin! The server failed to notice that everything on my plate was gone but the steak appeared untouched! She should have noticed that the other foods were disappearing but the steaks sat appearing untouched on our plates. Green beans, shrimp, pasta dishes all a 10 out of 10! We will go back as overall this is a decent place to eat! However, still waiting on the down town Laurel restaurants to class it up! After all, we are a tourist town (HGTV-Home Town fans) and our guests are here daily from all over the country and world. Train the staff, learn the wines, ditch the cheap flatware, think about adding cloth napkins... and paint the dining room and dim those flood lights!

    What a nice find in Laurel Mississippi. We are going to the Crowder concert and we're looking for a…read moreplace just to grab a drink maybe a bite to eat when we happened into 3 20 5th St. A very nice young lady agreed to sit the door. Evidently there was a cover charge to go in and see a band that was playing in the back. I have run bars, music venues for many years part of venturing onto my other occupation. Let me just throw my two cents out there... First off we were too young ladies trying to get a night cat before hitting the bed. It's not like there's a lot going on in Laurel Mississippi at 9:30 at night on a Saturday night. We went in and saw where the band was gonna be playing in a really nice outdoor seating area . The band had not started playing yet. We were just going to go take a quick look. Honestly, I'll be really wanted was a nightcap. Had I been running this facility? I would have put the covered charge desk at the other end of the bar where the exit to go to the outdoor seating area was. I think they're losing a lot of business from people who really don't have time or care to see the band. It makes sense to me. They have a great little bar that's not being utilized unless you're going to the outdoor seating area to watch the band. May want to rethink this O
