GRACE
Great Food…Great Service…Great Atmosphere…Great Price…..
A really neat find in Ripley, Mississippi as Travis and I found ourselves looking for a spot to eat lunch one afternoon. As usual, I used my map app on my phone to find restaurants close to our current location. After seeing the list, I began to read the reviews. Travis gave me about two minutes to complete my search and I hit the JACKPOT.
Great Find!!
Backdoor Guests Are BEST.
We entered through the back door and didn’t really know what to do or where to go. There was a counter, but no one was there since we were arriving at 2:50, which was really in between meal time. The decorations were neat and the SMELLS were delicious as we ventured in.
Nice Set Up
As we wandered into the restaurant, we found a table with a great view of the desserts. They were working on rewriting the drink menus on the chalkboards. There were people in and out, but I took all my pictures when there was no one in them so it looked empty, but it wasn’t. There were several students who came in to get take out or pick up drinks. A couple of other tables had people dining.

Decisions
I was so busy looking around, taking pictures and reading signs that it took forever for me to decide what to order. We settled on the homemade tortilla chips and salsa for a starter. Travis had Alfredo and I had the MS Heat Burger. The portion sizes were great, almost more than we could eat. It was all reasonably priced and SO yummy. I can’t wait to go back and try more items on the menu.
Upstairs Area
There was a large area upstairs that would be perfect for groups or families to gather and just hang out. I could see this as a great place to have Christmas parties, birthday get togethers, a girls night out, bible study groups, office parties, etc.
Go Check It Out
There was just a lot of really neat things about this place. The atmosphere was very relaxed and the folks working there were very friendly….and the food tasted fabulous and was affordable. I liked that they have several different menus for different times of the day. They even offer a variety of $6 power bowls for athletes and health conscious folks around the area.
Not Just Good Food
We stayed at Grace for just over an hour. I didn’t get a picture of it but we DID have dessert. I was able to walk around, take pictures and talk to the staff about this non-profit establishment. It is part of a larger organization and bigger than just the one restaurant. Go check it out and talk to them about it.
