About the restaurant

Nestled within Vicksburg’s oldest neighborhood, & located inside the town’s oldest columned mansion/bed & breakfast that survived the Civil War, Restaurant Anchuca exudes true Southern hospitality & happiness — after all, the name “Anchuca” is derived from the Choctaw word meaning “happy home.”

Don’t miss the filet — it’s so tender you won’t need a steak knife! Guests consistently say it’s the best filet they’ve ever had. Other specialties include the scrumptious shrimp & grits, paneed catfish featuring Mississippi farm-raised catfish, exceptional chicken piccata, & a variety of dinner and dessert specials.

Looking for great wine? With an emphasis on family-owned vineyards, artisan producers, highly sought after imports, & a wide range of price points, Restaurant Anchuca is proud to deliver world-class wine alongside Mississippi’s world-class hospitality. Our award-winning selection has been curated especially for Restaurant Anchuca by Mississippi’s only advanced-level sommelier.

Fantastic! We were celebrating our 30th Anniversary, and we booked a room at the Hemingway and made our way to Vestige to celebrate. We were not disappointed. Mike and Angie took excellent care of us. They are quite knowledgeable, not only about each creatively crafted dish, but also about the unique spices and ingredients and how they play a different role in separate dishes. The wine list was surprisingly accessible. We tried an Albarino, which was perfect. This is a great place to celebrate and have an unforgettable meal.

We’ve stayed at Monmouth and eaten there several times. The lamb lollipop and fried green tomato appetizers were DELICIOUS!!! My husband had the filet and said it was good but not as good for the higher price. I had the redfish and it would have been delicious but it was over cooked and very dry. The service was excellent. We know sometimes things are just off. We will return. It’s a beautiful setting. We celebrated our anniversary there.

Michael is the absolute best. He is very knowledgeable about all of food and ingredients, funny, and exceptional attention to detail. The crab claws are the best my guests and I have ever had. One friend had the lamb ravioli and just raved about them. Favorite brunch spot.

Radish

Long Beach

About the restaurant

Located in the heart of downtown Long Beach, Radish is a celebration of the agricultural spirit of the Gulf Coast and the unlikely connection between a charming coastal town and the humble root vegetable that put it on the map. Nineteenth-century farmers took advantage of the L&N Railroad and the opportunity to ship the fruits of their labor northward. The favored Yankee bar snack of the day was a long scarlet radish dipped in luxurious butter and coarse salt. The good times lasted until Prohibition, when local bars shuttered and demand for the Long Beach Red dried up. Today, Radish, led by Chef William Rester and team, embraces time-honored techniques and traditions to create an ingredient-driven menu that showcases what it means to eat and drink in the South.
