I am taking my daughter and 4 other college freshman girls to dinner tomorrow night. I've already suggested Cook-Out and Captain D's but have been overruled.

Where's a solid place that would be nice to take them? Been a few years since I've eaten out in Starkville so whatcha got?

Didn't Captain D's burn?

Camphouse is really good to me. Typical bar food. Commodore Bob's is more upscale. If you want to travel 15 minutes - go to Anthony's in West Point like someone suggested.

Yes but rebuilt next to Applebee’s quite some time ago.
It’s been a while since I’ve been, I never had a good experience there. Which is sad, I actually like Captain D’s in general.

I’ve got a whole list of nominations depending on what you’re in the mood for.
Mi Hacienda
El Veracruz
La Terraza
Casa Bravo
El Rodeo
No Way Jose
La Paisanita

For a little bit of a different vibe you could do:
Uno Mas Taco
Taco Amigo

Yeah I grew up on Captain D's, and return to it once every few years to sit and think about eating with my dad. Kinda like Krystal.

I'll add Georgia Blue, Taste, Bin 612 and Two Brothers to the list.
I was going to suggest Taste because it's off the main drag. Sit outside, order them a pizza (you get the pork chop), eat in relative peace then go drink/walk around in the Cotton District after.

She just told me she wants to go eat around 4:30 so her and her friends can start getting ready to go out so it shouldn't be too bad yet, I hope

Did you know they sell their "fish droppings" now? An entire styrofoam container of tiny fried batter globules. It's an absurdly large amount as well. Pretty sure just ordering them raises your cholesterol whether you consume them or not.

Long John Silver has been doing that for 30+ years.

I have some kind of mental block when it comes to Mexican restaurant names. You're going to have to be more specific. Like the one in the old Shoney's building, or the one across from the Wal-Mart, etc. There's a Mexican restaurant literally just around the corner from my office. I've been eating there about twice per month for the last 5 years. I have no idea what its name is. It's the one around the corner from work.

Are you thinking of JC Garcia's - the most exciting place in town?

Bruh, you ever been to Joe T Garcia's in Fort Worth? Obviously unrelated but reminded me of it.....

As COVID shlt was reopening, we took a little weekend trip over to FW and were told to go here. You pull up, line wrapped around the block. I'm like OK. Well apparently the whole deal is, they serve you margaritas while you wait. The hour wait turned into a party, damn near black out by the time you sit down and eat. Which masked the very average food.

Bulldog Burger, Georgia Blue, The Grill, Oby's, Little Dooey's, Camphouse are all casual, decent places to go that don't require reservations.
