★★★★★ 5.0 Conrad Carriker · Jan 2020

Super tasty and worth every penny! We wanted to check this place out because of the good reviews. The good reviews were spot on! Everything on the buffet tasted like it was homemade. Very tasty barbecue where the meat falls off the bone. The Salisbury steak was amazing and so were the vegetables. I only tried one dessert and it was like grandma used to make. Maybe even better! Reasonably priced for a buffet. Very friendly staff and the patrons were friendly as well. Clean restrooms and dining area. This place is well worth making time in your trip to check out!

The food is spectacular! We stopped by for the Sunday buffet after reading the other reviews. I tasted nearly every item and was astounded by the flavor, freshness and value! The ribs were fall-off-the-bone delicious, the fried chicken was mouth-watering amazing, the farm fresh veggies were perfectly seasoned, the desert was better than Grandma's and the homemade Mac and Cheese was creamy perfection. The place is full of locals who all know this is the best tasting deal for miles. If you are traveling between Jackson and Meridian, MS on I-20 on Friday or Sunday between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., then this is a detour you must take. Be sure to taste the Fried Chicken (that was my favorite!).

If you want a great steak...look no further!! This little place has some of the best food around and the deserts are amazing! Try the orange cake! I get the ribeye sandwich. It’s $12 and melts in your mouth! Flavorful is the word! Don’t miss it!!

This being my first time in Mississippi, I didn't know what to expect, but to my taste buds' delight, my meal at The Ribcage was absolutely delicious, and now seriously challenges Texas and Missouri in my quest for America's best barbecue. To boot, the staff was very friendly and I felt the warmth of the locals eating there.

Loved the sweet, welcoming vibe here. The steak came out perfect, just the way I ordered. Thank you for a great meal. I definitely recommend this place!
