Nissan Cafe By Nick Wallace — Restaurant in Jackson

I just want to start by saying that I should have tried this place earlier. It is located inside the Two Mississippi Museum's. Service was absolutely phenomenal. The man servicing us was extremely kind and patient. He answered all of our questions as we decided on what to purchase. He even brought out items out to our tables as we waited.

Items tried: SHRIMP VERMICELLI Spinach, Tomatoes, Red Onions, Herbs, Gulf Shrimp, Cheddar Veloute Sauce, Served with Flatbread

*CHICKEN SALAD CROISSANT Spinach, Tomatoes, Served with Café Chips

The food was amazing. The Chicken salad had a great taste to it and the soft flakey croissant paired perfectly. The meat in the chicken salad was also juicy. The cafe chips were thick, fresh, crunch, and seasoned well.

The Shrimp Vermicelli was everything! Creamy and Tasty! It came with delicious tasting flatbread. I actually could have had two more pieces of the yummy bread. This is one of those dishes where you have to purchase more than once. I'm looking forward to this tasty dish again!

I will definitely be returning to...

I remember learning about Nick while watching the Mississippi Center for Justice’s fundraiser video. I was soo amazed to see all the great things he was doing for Mississippi. He reminded me of my late father ( a professional chef) who was also from Mississippi. I didn’t remember where in Jackson Nick was located but knew I wanted to support him. While visiting the museum (for the first time) my family walked over to his restaurant and then that’s when it clicked …his logo, his name etc. I was soo happy I found his restaurant and ordered the grilled cheese with chips. I never tasted a grilled cheese sandwich soo rich and flavorful. It was soo fulfilling I kept stopping with amazement (because I love cheese) describing it to my husband who had the shrimp and grits that looked soo good. We got a chance to meet Nick and he seems so passionate about his cooking I just had to let him know about my meal. He’s so kind he even cut up an orange for our son and made these fancy slices that I still can’t mimic ..lol. Keep up the God given talent Nick, we shall return....

I ordered the gumbo, flatbread, and sweet tea. It was wonderful. The service was great, too. The ladies at the front recognized that I was looking for something to try and made suggestions as well as offered to let me taste the gumbo. The owner was at the front counter and introduced himself. The place is clean and neat and has plenty of seating right outside in the lobby as well as limited seating inside. It's a cafe that just happens to be located in a museum. It's definitely not what I expected in a very pleasant way. I'll be sure to go back and try everything.

I took a bite out of this before I decided to take a picture, but here it is.

I've gone back and tried the Ramen Noodle Bowl and Penne Pasta. They were both delicious, as well.

Holy cow! The shrimp and grits is phenomenal. I can't believe...
