Scrooge's - Feedback

Was Anonym at Scrooge's a mag?
The red snapper, the fried calamari, and the fried shrimp were all cooked perfectly. The French fries and onion rings were perfectly crispy with great flavor. The coleslaw was a bit watery. Even though the restaurant was not busy (likely slow), the waiter was not very attentive but still helpful when he was present. View all feedback.
What Anonym dislikes about Scrooge's:
I won't be back! I believe it was the owner, an older white gentleman sat there staring at me the entire time I waited for my order. This place gives me terrible vibes. If I can be honest racial discriminatory vibes. The floors were sticky and gross. It's pathetic and the food isn't that good. People of color beware. View all feedback.

Classic local diner with a bar. I go for lunch and enjoy the food. Very popular with the old timers who have likely gone for years and prefer sitdown service, not fast food.

Scrooge's, a beloved neighborhood bar and diner, evokes a sense of nostalgia with its homey ambiance and Southern cuisine. Diners rave about the authentic flavors, particularly the red beans and rice, red snapper, and fried offerings, though some lament inconsistencies in taste and execution. While the atmosphere can feel cramped and the service varies from personable to inattentive, many appreciate the friendly staff who engage warmly with patrons. Despite mixed reviews about certain dishes, the establishment remains popular among locals, making it a casual spot for hearty meals and enjoyable conversations over sports on TV.

Scrooges is an absolutely solid Jackson restaurant.
Ok, let me tell you what if you get to Jackson Mississippi you bring yourself to Scrooge's! This is American comfort food.
Two thumbs. Always enjoy my time at Skroogen. Yelp makes me type 37 more characters, lol
Baked green tomatoes were great. The reuben was very delicious and the horned beef was cut thick and you could taste it, but it was too wet with...

After our softball tournament, we stopped by and sat in the bar area. Chris provided excellent and friendly service, and the food was delicious. I ordered the shrimp po' boy and fried jalapenos - they were both delicious!
The atmosphere and the food were wonderful. Service was gracious and frequent without becoming annoying. I got the steak with baked potato and spinach. It was cooked perfectly to order and were very tasty. Can't wait to go back again.
I have been a patron of Scrooge's for as long as I can remember and have always enjoyed it. When I was young, I loved their grilled cheese, but now I prefer their red beans and rice, gumbo, and fried chicken. The pork tenderloin medallions are also exceptional when available. I appreciate that the bar walls were moved with the restaurant when it relocated to Ridgewood, making the atmosphere feel the same as the old location, minus the treacherous spiral staircase. The restaurant reminds me of the old sunroom, although more stable. My wife and I even had our wedding reception here, and it was fantastic. I am pleased with how well the new owners have maintained the place after Maggie sold it. Chris Jefferson has been a part of the team since the reopening, and Chris Carter for about 8 years. It's wonderful to see longtime employees now owners, ensuring that one of Jackson's longstanding restaurants and bars continue to thrive.
I had the Beef Brisket, it was delicious. Dave had my all time favorite, Pork Tenderloin Medallions, if only I could make them that good at home!! U can never go wrong with the Sweet Potato Casserole, along with any of the other veggie choices. Scrooges is just a great place to meet friends and have a meal!!
Great people and amazing gumbo!!! Definitely going to visit again if I'm back in town.
