Georgia Blue, located in the heart of Starkville, Mississippi, is a southern gem that perfectly marries classic recipes with a delightful ambiance. Guests rave about the massive shrimp po' boy, a standout dish praised for both its size and flavor, providing hearty satisfaction for seafood lovers. The bayou catfish with grits also garners attention for its delectable taste, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to authentic southern cooking.
Beyond the food, patrons consistently highlight the exceptional service. Waitstaff like Dawson illustrate attentiveness and friendliness, enhancing the dining experience. The atmosphere is inviting for groups of all sizes, making it a versatile spot for everything from casual dinners to large celebrations, with the venue even offering a private event space for up to 130 guests. Live music from Thursday to Saturday contributes to a vibrant dining scene.

The Georgia Peach cocktail is a must-try, noted as "dangerously good," making it the perfect companion to any meal. With its blend of outstanding cuisine, a warm atmosphere, and superb service, Georgia Blue firmly stands out as a cornerstone of the Starkville dining scene.

Shrimp poboy is MASSIVE. Red beans & rice were acceptable. The bayou catfish (catfish & grits) were very good. The Georgia Peach cocktail was dangerously good.

Absolutely love this place. Our waiter Dawson was very attentive and friendly. I had the smothered fried chicken and it was fantastic.

Darling establishment with room for anyone; from a party of one to a party of 130 this is a great place. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was delightful. They have a separate event space that can host a part of 130 with a full bar. The service was exceptional and they had live music Thursday through Saturday nights. They have transportation to and from MSU from their location so this is a perfect game day home base!

Overall the foods were really good. My GB Shrimp & Grits tasted good. It could've been better if it was served warm, but the dish I got was at room temp. My husband's GB Smothered Chicken was amazing!! Chicken and mashed potatoes was perfect but grilled corns were mushy. When we went in for dinner at 6:30, the restaurant was fairly empty so service was prompt and the server checked on us regularly. Atmosphere was good.

We were about the only people in the restaurant around 6 on a Thursday night. Seems like a great place, so I was surprised it wasn't more busy. Great drinks, local beers and appetizers... and our meals were all wonderful. I got the shrimp po boy. Enormous!

I was shocked to see that this restaurant has duck wontons! They were delicious! They reminded me of the ones I've had in Louisiana! Great atmosphere! Our waiter was very friendly and polite. The food came out in a decent amount of time. We weren't left waiting very long to eat. The tables were sticky and could have used a good scrub, but other than that, everything was great!

An amazing culinary experience where we could partake in Duck Wontons, Turnip Green Balls, and Spicy Crawfish Spinach Dip. Excellent service. Huge portions (including the biggest Chicken Sandwich I've ever seen!) And a very clean, modern facility. Except little bar area and even a gigantic outdoor area with live music. Happy to have revisited and had great experiences each time.

The Rodeo burger did not disappoint. This review is being done a week later and I still remember the name of the burger...obviously made an impression. I was torn between two choices and my waiter raved about the burger so that’s what I went with and was so glad I did!sweet potato fries were great too! When I asked for some honey for my fries they were able to accommodate quickly!
