After you’ve settled in, treat your taste buds at these
five local favorites—each just a quick drive from your new home.
1. Crechale’s Steak & Seafood
3107 US‑80 W, Jackson, MS 39204
A Jackson institution since 1956, Crechale’s is
beloved for hand‑cut USDA‑prime steaks, stuffed shrimp, and the show‑stopping
broiled flounder deboned tableside. Its classic neon sign signals the retro
supper‑club vibe you’ll encounter inside—perfect for a special‑occasion dinner
only about five minutes from Creekside Apartments.
2. The Iron Horse Grill
320 W Pearl St, Jackson, MS 39203
Housed in a restored 1906 “ice house,” The Iron Horse
Grill serves up live music with Southern‑Mexican fusion dishes—think charcoal‑grilled
fajitas and Delta‑style catfish tacos. The Mississippi Music Experience Museum
upstairs is a bonus stop before you cruise home via I‑55 or I‑20.
3. Keifer’s Restaurant
710 Poplar Blvd, Jackson, MS 39202
Craving Mediterranean? Keifer’s has been slinging
legendary pita mozz since 1980. Pair a gyro with their house‑made feta
dressing, then relax back at Creekside—maybe under those lighted ceiling
fans—knowing you’re only 10 minutes away.
4. Saltine Oyster Bar
622 Duling Ave, Ste 201, Jackson, MS 39216
Located in vibrant Fondren, Saltine specializes in Gulf
oysters (raw, charbroiled, or fried) alongside inventive Southern‑coastal
plates. Its airy, restored school building setting complements Creekside’s own
blend of modern comfort and classic charm.
5. Johnny T’s Bistro & Blues
538 N Farish St, Jackson, MS 39202
For dinner that slides into nightlife, Johnny T’s
dishes elevated soul‑food staples—catfish & grits, Cajun pasta—against a
backdrop of live jazz or R&B. Downtown parking is easy, and the short drive
home lets you wind down on your private balcony.
