Bulldog Burger in the cotton district is really good and family friendly. Really can't go wrong with anything in the district as far as food goes. Dave's has great food despite its outside appearance.
I'm big on Two Brother's. Pork belly tacos.
Just started by grad school year so I'm pretty uo to date on the food situation.
Burgers- Bulldog Burger is by far the best burger joint in town.
Two brothers is excellent bar food. My favorite place in town. Gonna be a college crowd but go get the pulled pork grilled cheese.
Stromboli's if you go the pizza route.
If you want a nice dinner either Veranda or Resturant Tyler. Both of those have great brunch as well.
City bagel I think is the most underrated lunch place in town. Great sandwich stop and all the bagels are homemade.
Go get Starkville Cafe breakfast before you leave.
I'll get killed for this but Moe's is my favorite BBQ in town. There I said it.
The Grill and Mugshots. Can't go wrong there.Quote:

Roxy's in the Cotton District
3 Little Pigs
Krystals
Bumpers
Grumpy's
and definitely go to Banisters and/or Cheers for drinks and sorostitute vomit breath***
Ok, in all seriousness:
City Bagel (probably my favorite place in town, and I miss it terribly)
Restaurant Tyler
Oby's
Christy's (I like Bulldog burger ok, but I'm a sucker for old fashion/simple burgers)
Stromboli
Daves Darkhorse
Thai Siam
The Exxon on 182 has some ****ing amazing rib-tips and smoked turkey legs.
Abner's
Veranda
Two Brothers
Commodore Bob's (the cod with capers is a really good dish)
Taste of China (no seriously: they have the best cheese rangoons, and the Mongolian Pork is ethereal)
Can't go wrong with Dave's. By far the best pizza in town.Quote:

Completely forgot about city bagel Italian night. It's divine. Never done the pizza though because I always go vodka pasta. It's incredible. I've done their breakfast once and it was really good but Starkville cafe just added some breakfast tacos to the menu that are incredible. I knew I'd get roasted for the moe's comment. I'm just not a dooey fan. It's good but I've always thought it was over priced. I've only done petty's once. Love the white BBQ sauce at Moe's and the atmosphere in there is great for watching games and stuff.Quote:

The Grill is good as well as others mentioned. So is Cook out for fast food hamburgers and shakes. Casa Bravo for mexican and No way jose's for tex-mex
umi's for hibatchi.
I love Abners and Christy's myself. Abners has my favorite chicken strips of anyone. Christy's, like stated above, has a good big old fashioned burger. My favorite in Starkville.
Abners closed.
Agree on all of those. Anthony's is my parents favorite spot. I think they might only be wed-sat thoughQuote:

Moe's is more craft beer, great food (esp smoked wings), cool layout, good music, & a general heady feel. The GM is from my hometown and a damn good guy & bulldog.Quote:

Those speciality sides are second to none as well.Quote:

And i left of Dave's. One of my favorite dive bars all-timeQuote:

Only time I get dave's now is call in because I just don't want to wait that long. I've always said Dave's would kill it on the cotton district because if you could walk there a lot more people would go, but it's not in a great location to drink because you've got to drive over there.Quote:

What's the difference in Mexican and Tex-Mex? I thought they were the same.
Absolutely, Dave's would kill it in the District and their pizza is the best in town.
Two Brother's is very good but I got food poisoning from the wings back in early April during the KY series. Saw game one and was in the bed for games 2 and 3.
City Bagel is very underrated. I'm sorry that I just started going there last month.
Obey's gumbo is VERY good and recommended.
I have not. Trips to Starkville have been too few and far between latelyQuote:

FYI abners closed. Commodore bob's is best place in town imoQuote:
