My wife wanted to visit Louisville and have a taste of local food. Yelp suggested Mississippi Belle. The brunch was excellent. The food was delicious and the service was friendly and quick.

Excellent southern comfort food! I've been going here since I was a child and it's been awesome watching this place grow over the years. It can be pretty busy on holidays or weekends, but that's due to a steadfast and loyal clientele that they have cultivated over the years. Southern food done right, at a price that won't make you groan!

The food here is good. Very good. Down home and hits many of the notes you would expect for 'good' soul food. But not perfect. Not exactly like Grandma's. I ordered the fried chicken white had 2 3 piece servings; collard greens; macaroni and cheese; fried cabbage; baked beans; sweet tea. Ordered a slice of lemon cake. The best parts: Meal includes a drink Meal is all you can eat with 4 sides Also they have southern desserts! Chess pie sweet potato pie The service was great Place was clean and the other diners were quiet and minded their business. The could be better parts: It is cash only Need to offer pepper sauce for the greens and cabbage The food is seasoned but could be seasoned differently. To make the food for everyone it seemed like it is under seasoned. I need some paprika or Mrs Dash or something. But as is better than 90% of the so called soul food I have had all over the country. Sweet tea was sweet but they should have used simple sugar syrup. The baked beans tasted like they relied on a ketchup base and not bbq sauce- I didn't care for it. The Lemon cake was moist but more yellow than lemony. Should be lemony.

Stopped in with my best friend for lunch before going down the street to look at cars. First CASH Only so plan ahead. We walked in and was greeted immediately, ask if take out or eat in. We sat down and was ask about drink as soon as we sat down. Drinks came then ordered food which came out super quick. Pretty sure the food was made ahead, but it doesn't matter because it tasted wonderful. I mean seriously I bet this place is packed during main meal times. This is basically a bunch of tables and chairs. I will gladly come back here again, I am hoping for Friday's because they have catfish nuggets. And I hope to try dessert next time as well.

So absolutely delicious!! We came here for my sisters birthday with family and it was so good. The staff were all very friendly and the food was amazing. I got the fried fish, sweet potatoes, collard greens, cabbage, and the hot water cornbread. Lunch specials were great!! Definitely recommend.

My party of 4 went for lunch on 12/16 because I knew the food would be good and no one else had ever been there. We were the 2nd customers of the day. The exterior was clean and there is plenty of parking. Our waitress (Tasha) was on top of her job. She treated us like no one was a stranger. The food was hot and presentation was good. Our table had everything from baked chicken, fried chicken, fried fish, ribs, mac n cheese, greens, sweet potatoes & green beans. All I heard was, "This is the best fried chicken ever!" I heard, "This Mac n cheese is soooo good!" There was some lips smacking too. Then, to top it off, we ordered 1 slice of pecan pie (for 4 ppl to share) because we were all full. Delicious is the only way to describe the food. Hospitable is the only way to describe the service. I would recommend this place to anyone!

Tonight I FINALLY was in the right place at the right time with a nose that could actually smell and a tongue that could taste again. I guess BOTH wanted to make up for #lost good eats because the idea of soul food for dinner would not leave my mind. I'd heard that Mississippi Belle (near Broad Ripple) was one of Indianapolis's hidden gems, but the exterior of the restaurant does little to draw hungry patrons in. And that's the reason for over 25 years I've just driven right on past, instead of feeding my curiosity. Look what happened this evening when I finally walked through the front door! Sure, I might have wanted to taste ALL THE THINGS and requested something that you won't #find on the menu, but I'm telling you! WHATEVER you get at Mississippi Bell will NOT disappoint! #Getlostindiana

Newly remodeled after a fire in 2019, the Belle is back!! The interior got a nice transformation & the food is just as delicious as ever. Dinner here with loved ones feels like coming home. Don't forget to bring cash, though they do now have an ATM in case you forget.
