1. El Agave Mexican Grill

El Agave is our favorite Mexican place. We eat here often. One of the best things is the fresh guacamole they make right there in the front of the restaurant. On top of that, the salsa is always great.
Surprisingly, they have a great hamburger! So even if someone in your party is not in the mood for Mexican, you should still go! Get the Bulldog burger -- it's great!

Quaint little bakery on main street. Fairly small. Coolers along the sides and a counter with pastries. Very nice staff. We tried the lemon bars....excellent, the coconut cake...delicious, and the Carmel cake....just ok. Very sweet. Would be great with a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, they don't have coffee nor any tables to sit at. We will try some other items the next time we visit, there are a lot of things that look good.

Coffee was OK and reasonably priced but service for me was very bad. I ordered a Mocha and had to wait for the barista to prepare coffee for three different people who walked in after I had ordered. She would stop preparing my mocha and take care of the later walk-ins. Oh and she had no whipped cream for the mocha.

Excellent service, excellent food, eclectic atmosphere. I had the Fiesta salad, great chipotle ranch dressing. My husband had the 1/2 lb burger and fries, the only negative was the bacon was a little "chewy", not crisp the way he likes. My daughter had the club wrap, also excellent, again except for "chewy" bacon. Prices are good too. Our waitress was great, and love that Mississippi drawl!! This place is located in the very quaint downtown area. Highly recommend!

I go by here every morning to get my breakfast. They do close on Mondays, but every other weekday they are open. I'm not sure about the weekends. They are very fast and the lines are usually not long so it's great if you're in a hurry. I love it and it has always been great. You can also walk in and pick up and order rather than go through the drive through. The lady at the window is always very nice and if there is ever a mistake they will always be happy to fix it.

From the pleasant smiles we received upon entering the doors thru the excellent service, the fresh salad bar and our fresh, hot, delicious meal we were more than grateful for this place. Every meal experience gets better. This is THE PLACE TO EAT in New Albany (we also love Tallahatchie Gourmet). We have dinner here once a month (due to being 30 min. from our home) and EVERY MEAL seems to get better!! Treat yourself!!
7. George's Restaurant

Reviewed By eatbread - Memphis, Tennessee
we have ever had. Took a drive to New Albany for lunch. Picked George's based on reviews. Good choice! Plenty of parking, friendly staff, very reasonable prices, and excellent fried chicken. Save room for a strawberry biscuit...you'll be glad you did. Very similar to a strawberry shortcake, but on a biscuit with vanilla ice cream. Enough for two to share. We got there on a Saturday around 11:30am. Was not crowded, but by the time we left the drive-through line was all the way out to the street. Obviously, this place is the choice of locals...and for good reason.

Just for your travelers out there, when you click on the map icon to see where this restaurant is located it's wrong! For locals obviously not a problem. For out-of-towners like us it was. So just to spare you the ordeal, mcallisters will be directly off of the interstate I-22. We hate to eat "fast food" when traveling so a call in or online order to this place was perfect for us. Great sandwiches as always and perfect sweet tea. They did forget my daughters salad dressing which when you are traveling 9 hours away was a bit of a problem. But other than that no complaints, just TripAdvisor needs to adjust the location on the map. Happy travels!

Great place, lots of selections. We stopped in New Albany to visit friends arriving Sunday afternoon. After Sunday evening worship service at Bethlehem we went for supper with our friends. We all got a different selection. Everyone enjoyed their entree. The biggest problem is too many choices!

Game tyme serves hamburgers that will make your mouth water. They have different names for their food which is named after baseball games. Their hamburger plate comes with french fries. They will dress your burger anyway you want. It is a drive up and order but they do have tables outside you can sit and eat on. They are a very friendly staff and the food is always good.
