Mark and Mary Shapley began this dining tradition in 1985 and soon became one of the premier restaurants in the state. After taking a break to raise their two girls, they have returned with the same great food and service everyone came to know. Great steaks and seafood along with their famous tamales are still the main attraction along with an impressive bar and wine offerings. Please come by and see for yourself how special this restaurant is. We were recently voted 'Best Fine Dining' by the readers of Mississippi Magazine

    We ordered the fried artichoke app, Redfish and filet with creole sauce. The redfish was excellent with a nice sauce and tons of crabmeat. The steak was perfectly prepared and fantastic as well. We also split a wonderful wedge salad and awesome french fries.

    I highly recommend the crab cakes and the fried oysters! Amazing! You won’t be sorry! Steaks were perfectly seasoned and prepared, the mashed potatoes were really good too. I wasn’t a huge fan of the sautéed mushrooms- they could have used a few more minutes of cooking and a little more seasoning, but they were not terrible. My son ordered the Ahi tuna and he really liked it. Nice wine list.

    I'm not a fan of how the tables are arranged. It feels like a cafeteria and somewhat impersonal. The sitting area in the bar is great. The food was very good except for the house salad. I assume they had a new employee doing salads that night. Steaks, Crab Claws, Tuna Tower were great. However, the stuffed Shrimp was very odd. To much stuffing and there was a loud herb/spice in the dressing mix that left an after taste.
