The Little Dooey

My first time here. In Mississippi for a game at MS. I honestly dont see how this spot is rated as " the best". This food was dreadful..no flavor, heavily FRIED and greasy. Hush puppies were sugary and onion rings were so greasy Iiterally tasted no onion.. catfish again no flavor. I was not even impressed. The shrimp also lacked flavor and had terrible batter.. They need to cook w/ more love. Season your food! This IS the south isn't it!

First time eating at The Little Dooey. Outside makes you feel like your truly eating at a great BBQ Restraunt. The cashiers at the front were you place your order were nice but not the first impression you would want for a 5 star. School had just started Monday so I will let that slide. They were helpful with advice on what to order. I had the 1/2 chicken, corn salad, Fried Okra with a side of there Buffalo sauce. Smoked chicken was cooked perfect!! Corn salad was very very good!! Okra is okra you can not mess it up. There version of Texas toast was really good. Only negative was after I set down in the back bar with no AC I never seen or heard from a staff member !! Price is very reasonable for a BBQ restaurant!! I would recommend this place!!

I stopped by Starkville on my way back to New Orleans from West Point last Wednesday about an hour before closing time. I heard good things about this restaurant so I thought I would give it a shot. The place was clean and homey like a country store. The guy at the register was polite and answered all of my questions. He recommended the blackened shrimp cheese fries so I ordered them along with pulled pork, okra, toast, sausage and greens. The food was hot, well seasoned, and tasty. Well, what I was able to eat... I would give this restaurant 5 stars, but an employee threw away my blackened shrimp cheese fries when I got up to refill my drink. So I paid like 15 bucks for something I didn't even get to eat. If someone at the restaurant reads this then I would appreciate a refund on the food your employee tossed without telling me.

A typical southern style, self- service eatery, famous for It’s BBQ and catfish. Love their pulled pork or brisket or the fried fish. The meat is so tender, that you can cut it with a plastic knife. Most of the time, they are pretty crowded. You might get trouble with parking. It seems, it was somebody’s house, turned into a restaurant. So the interior and the layout is bit different. May be because of that, the inside is little smelly!However, must visit if you are around.
