Blow Fly Inn Restaurant
(Restaurants - Lunch)
1201 Washington Ave, Gulfport  39507 • 228-896-9812
        Description: GULFPORT. This friendly, appealing restaurant is a bit off the beaten path, but it is worth seeking out for a full meal or a delicious homemade dessert. No matter what you order, two things are guaranteed: the staff will make you feel like a member of the family, and you will be treated to lovely views of a scenic Gulf inlet. The outdoor deck is an attractive place to spend a breezy evening or enjoy the views from the large windows that line the dining room. Popular menu choices are the seafood, poboys, hamburger steaks, and red beans and rice. Fresh coffee and a thick slab of peanut butter cheesecake in a chocolate crust are sure to end your meal on a sweet note. Desserts vary daily according to the local baker's mood; you won't be able to leave the dessert case empty-handed.

Burger Burger
(Restaurants - Lunch)
1039 Howard Ave, Biloxi  39530 • 228-432-5183
        Description: BILOXI. The burger joint so nice, they named it twice. If you're going to eat a burger, eat the best burger on the Gulf Coast – and this is the place to get it. Order the House Special and you'll get a huge, perfectly cooked burger, served on lightly toasted French-style po' boy bread with a zesty mustard blend, onion and special gravy. Unforgettable! Don't forget a side of great fries and a bottled Barq's root beer – invented in Biloxi – to wash it all down. Other options include pressed po' boy sandwiches filled with shrimp or crabmeat or salads topped with grilled chicken or fried crawfish. But it's the burger that has proven addictive for loyal locals.

Lil' Ray's PoBoys & Seafood
(Restaurants - Lunch)
500 Courthouse Rd, Gulfport  39507 • 228-896-9601
        Description: GULFPORT. Po' boys are where it's at when dining at this ultra-casual restaurant. Whether at the counter or one of the wooden tables and benches, this eatery serves up po' boys in two sizes, 8-inch and 12-inch, stuffed with fillings such as smoked sausage, shrimp or soft-shell crab. These hearty sandwiches come "dressed," meaning they are topped with mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato slices. Crawfish lovers can enjoy pounds or buckets of the spicy, boiled mudbugs. Boiled shrimp makes a nice lunch or light dinner, or try the popular seafood dinners. A plate of fried shrimp, oysters, fish and stuffed crab comes complete with hushpuppies, French bread and a choice of Cajun new potatoes, wedge potatoes, coleslaw or potato salad. Whatever you do, don't forget to order a Barq's (root beer, for the uninitiated), which was born in nearby Biloxi. Barq's and po' boys just go together.

Los Tres Amigos
(Restaurants - Lunch)
603 E Pass Rd, Gulfport  39507 • 228-896-6905
        Description: GULFPORT. For years, this large Mexican restaurant has been spicing up Coast palates with favorites such as chile rellenos, flautas (chicken or beef) and carne asada. True to its heritage, the restaurant is decorated with piñatas and Mexican paintings and posters. La Favorita is the best of the combination dinners, with large portions of chile rellenos, beef flautas and quesadillas. For lighter fare, split the nachos al carbon with a friend – the dish is too large for one person, but goes well with a frozen margarita. The margaritas come in three sizes.

Mary Mahoney's Old French House
(Restaurants - Lunch)
110 Rue Magnolia, Biloxi  39530 • 228-374-0163
        Description: Open since the mid-60s, this coastal restaurant has seen its share of celebrities. Bobby Mahoney, son of founder Mary Mahoney, carries on the family tradition of quality food and excellent service in the building that dates back to the 1700s. You'll find him roaming from table to table, sharing jokes or stories of old Biloxi. The seafood gumbo is the best way to start the meal. It's so good, in fact, that locals buy it by the half-gallon or gallon. Crab claws and soft-shell crabs are favorites, as well. The bread pudding is well worth the calories.

McElroy's on the Bayou
(Restaurants - Lunch)
705 Bienville Blvd, Ocean Springs  39564 • 228-818-4600
        Description: OCEAN SPRINGS. Overlooking the waters of the bayou, this casual restaurant welcomes locals and visitors alike. The crab fingers dinner, either fried or broiled, is exceptional, but be prepared to take home a doggie bag – the portions are large. Combinations of two or three seafood entrées are available, and the huge shrimp salad is a keeper whether for lunch or a lighter dinner. The rémoulade dressing has just the right spiciness. A separate bar is located off the main dining area, perfect for sipping a cocktail or a beer.

Ole Biloxi Schooner
(Restaurants - Lunch)
871 Howard Ave, Biloxi  39530 • 228-435-8071
        Description: BILOXI. Tucked away on the historic Point Cadet area, this hot spot for lunch and dinner is an ultra-casual, seat-yourself restaurant. Reflective of its name, seafood is the mainstay, although crowds enjoy the weekday blue-plate specials, too. The seafood gumbo is one of the best, if not THE best, on the Coast. Go for a bowl of it along with a side of homemade, piping hot hush puppies. Fried seafood platters and po' boys are specialties, and locals always order a Barq's root beer with their po' boys – it's a Coast tradition.

Rickey's Bar & Grill
(Restaurants - Lunch)
603 Hwy 90 Ste L, Bay St. Louis  39520 • 228-463-0540
        Description: BAY ST. LOUIS. It may be a casual restaurant but the cuisine is strictly fine dining. Chef/owner Rickey Peters was a protégé of noted chef Paul Prudhomme, and that training reflects in the food. It's hard to decide which entrée is best. The crab and shrimp augratin, the chicken pecan or the veal stuffed with crabmeat. If you are a steak lover, they have you covered with sirloin, ribeye or filet mignon and topped with crabmeat and sautéed mushrooms should you desire. Wine list and full bar are available. Dress is casual.
