    We had a wonderful meal at Beatrice. The food was delicious … expertly prepared and seasoned. We enjoyed the Cajun eggrolls, bread basket and Beatrice salad for starters. Entrees consisted of redfish special, seafood linguini Alfredo and catfish/fried chicken combo and we finished with a shared pumpkin cheesecake which had a pumpkin spice cake base with a cheesecake topping. Simply delightful! Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. We can’t wait to return!!

    Our waiter was great he took time to give us recommendations from the menu and answer questions. It was fairly quiet and we were able to enjoy our meal and have great conversation. Loved the sweet & spicy chicken and waffles. We had a couple of cocktails and good food. Nice spot

    Holy Moly! I am so glad we picked this place for dinner! Food- amazing. Cocktails- delicious. If you’re into mezcal and spice, then get the “Hey Hot Stuff”. Yum is an understatement. We had fried pickles, sweet n spicy fried chicken, the southern fried chicken BLT, Brussels sprouts and fries. The banana pudding and Mississippi mud pie were delicate and sweet. If I’m ever anywhere there is a Tupelo Honey, I’m definitely making a visit.
