My son has a rodeo Saturday in Purvis. It will be over around 4 and I thought we would stop in Hattiesburg to eat supper on the way back to starkville. What's the best Hattiesburg has to offer?

Crescent city grill if it?s still around has the best food in town. It is a sit down restaurant with seafood steaks and the like.Quote:

Crescent city grill. Robert St. John is a personal friend. Great food and atmosphere. Make sure you get a bowl of corn and crab bisque.
LT's Fish House on Hwy 589 right there in Purvis is pretty good.
Crescent City
Ed's Burger joint next to Crescent City for a good gourmet and unique burger place
Leathas BBQ
Half Shell Oyster House
South Mouth Deli
Manolas (Mexican)
Sullys. Crescent City is good but Sullys is my fav and usually has someone playing so acoustic guitar and singing. My favorite place in town.
Sullys is prob the best non chain restaurant. They have great beef no matter what you get. Best steaks in town IMO. I agree on Crescent City. LT's in Purvis is as good a fish house there is. If you like Italian, Tabella's is really good, also by Robert St John. If you like burgers, Plaid Rhino's are very good. Don't know how old your son is but they have a game room. Sakura for sushi if that's your thing.
Wow, thanks for the responses guys. They are greatly appreciated. Should I expect to need a reservation for a place like Sullys or Cresent City for a Saturday evening or do y'all think we can just walk in?
Both will be busy but they generally get you seated quickly. Wouldn’t hurt to make a reservation though.
Keg And Barrel or Sullys
Crescent City isn’t what it was.
Ed’s sucks ass.
-Tabella is good Italian and is St. John’s. Chicken cachitorie is one of my favorites here.
-No one has mentioned Cotton Blues. It is very good but can be pricey, depending on what you order. They have a wide variety of food styles and prices though. Might be at the top of my list.
-Sully’s gets good reviews and I am impressed with their burgers but have never had good luck with their steaks. They are a bar that has done a good job transitioning into a better than average restaurant. Down on my list though.
-we don’t eat crescent city b/c my wife is pissed at them for some reason. She loved the purple parrot though. I don’t understand it but she is a woman. For years crescent city was one of my favorites though.
-patio 44 is popular, but we don’t frequent it.
Al, anybody with a wife or girlfriend understands your post. Adam had a fit with Eve.Quote:

I've been disappointed with St. John's restaurants. He's got so many in H'burg now that they've become pretty average.
The best burger in H'burg is Keg & Barrel. And it's easily the best beer drinking in H'burg.
I agree with Al on Sully's steaks. Good taste but meat quality isn't what I prefer. But, most everything thing there is pretty good.
The Endzone has a hell of a hamburger steak too.
Leatha's is a hole in the wall but it's good barbeque.
Agree on Sully's. Meant to include them. Usually pretty crowded by 6/630 so you might be able to beat the crowd. Sully's has two locations. One on Hwy 11 right off 59 and a new one in Petal off Evelyn Gandy Parkway (so pretty easy to get to).
I’ll add that half shell is good but I wouldn’t want to try and get in there on a Saturday night unless it was early or late. I don’t like to wait though.
There is a new bbq place on hardy st., close to keg and barrel and the zoo called murky waters. The chicken and ribs have been good every time. The brisket has been great and very average but I think that is typical of bbq places. They will probably have live music on a Saturday night.
Keg and barrels burgers are grass fed, so keep that in mind.
On the topic of steaks, I have given up on trying to find a good steak in h’burg. I do my own now (not that I am good at it). With that said, I don’t get steak if I go someplace like half shell or cotton blues, so I can’t speak to their’s. Sully’s was going to be the replacement for connestoga (he supposedly hired connestoga’s kithen staff) but everyone around here knows that connestoga went to shit after the original owner died years ago (word was that he knew how to buy meat). With all of that said, Sully’s is popular, but, this is Mississippi and many around here don’t leave their county. So, I guess Sully’s is the steak champion in the area.

Congrats to your son. Glad you enjoyed it.
