Main Street Market — Restaurant in Vicksburg

While passing through Vicksburg on a Monday we stopped in to eat as this place boasted a 4.8 rating. It is a very quaint old home with just the front room as the seating area. Everything looked tidy. We were greeted when we entered the door and directed to a table for three people. It was quickly noted that although the two servers greeted us, neither one at any time was ever seen smiling. They were pleasant enough but no smiles. An order was placed for a chicken salad sandwich, a cup of the soup of the day, a gyro and a roast beef with aus jus along with drinks. We received our order in a timely manner. Again, no smiles. The server came to check on us again but without a smile. Our food was just okay. It was not bad. We all three agreed we would go back again as it was better than fast food. But it did not match the reviews of excellence in actual taste. We have definitely had great but not here and not today. After sharing each other's meals we determined that the gyro was the best tasting of all three items. But it was not spectacular. Now these little biscuits that were supposed to be so delicious were a real let down. One person in my party is a biscuit expert and they were unimpressed and didn't even take a second biscuit. Usually they are stealing all the biscuits on the table from us without sharing. But not here. I only took one bite and I was done. We will pass on the biscuits altogether next time. We each took a turn at the one stall bathroom and agreed that it looked like it needed a deeper cleaning. There was trash including toilet paper on the floor. Now when it came time to stand in line and pay at the register, that lady was smiling as she took everyone's payments. But, again, she was the only one who smiled the whole time we were there. Very strange indeed. So four stars is all I care to afford across the board. We will try again on another pass through Vicksburg. Maybe today was...

If you are a tourist and you are trying to decide on a place to grab lunch, this is it. Don't leave Vicksburg without eating here. Its our own little hidden gem that's not so hidden anymore. Its family owned, everything is made from scratch, and it is SO GOOD. The owners are really great people and you will feel like you've known them forever. They also do takeout orders if you just want to grab something and go. My go to would be the house salad with ginger dressing, then whatever special is on the menu (it changes daily) and don't leave without pie (trust me on this one) Chocolate chunky pecan is my favorite but the chess pie is awesome too. Oh! And don't forget a...

I had been trying to go here for years, but I could never arrive during their business hours. They are apparently only open for lunch. It was so wonderful. Real food and so fresh! We had the white beans and rice and the muffuletta. The soup special was a homemade ham and bean soup. Everything was the perfect flavor, texture, temperature and it was beautifully presented. I haven't been so pleased with lunch in a long time. It is obvious the chef and employees take pride in their food. The staff was welcoming and helpful. I can't wait to try everything...
