Dinner was pretty good!! We had fried green tomatoes, a cup of gumbo, crawfish ettoufee, and shrimp tacos. The gumbo was a very good creole gumbo, just as advertised. The fried green tomatoes were thicker than we liked, but we are from Texas so things are different over there. The 3 shrimp tacos were delicious and just as expected. The crawfish ettoufee was excellent, not too rich, and just enough spice to not let you eat 6 bites in a row without a saltine to go with it. The portion was more than plenty. We had a Hendricks gin/tonic and a Capt Morgan/diet coke to drink – both were spot on. The service was excellent. The atmosphere was superb. We were greeted immediately and seated right away. The food was brought out hot, fresh and timely.

I don’t go around giving 5 stars just to any restaurant. This place is a hidden gem. Everytime I’ve gone it hasn’t been crowded. I think that’s just because it’s in Hattiesburg, MS. The food is excellent the service is fanominal. I have sat at the bar and at a table the service still didn’t miss. I timed my drive 2 times now from Alabama to Texas so I could eat there. Do yourself a favor and experience it. You’ll thank me later.

Our first experience with Patio 44 was in Biloxi. We enjoyed it, so we thought we’d try the one in Hattiesburg and it did not disappoint. My wife and I both ordered the Chicken and Waffles with the signature hot pecan fried chicken.
Even though the chicken cuts were breast, they were flavorful and tender with just the right amount of moisture locked in with crispy fried crust.
We asked for the sweet pecan glaze and maple syrup on the side which worked very well for us. It allowed us to selectively choose and dollop just the right amount of each for each bite. The pecan glaze was about the consistency of pecan pie filling that has not quite set yet—not firm but also not runny.
The only downside, and this is a bit of a nitpick, is that the waffles were a bit stiff, but I think that’s because the glaze was meant to come on the chicken which would give a softer texture to the waffle.
Even with that, we enjoyed every bite.
The restaurant was clean, though the men’s restroom could have used some attention.
We were seated in an area where the noise level was low which made for pleasant conversation. And, our server Mary was excellent. She was well versed in the menu and drinks, attentive and gave us solid recommendations.
It was a solid 7/10 experience. Would recommend and if the good Lord allows, we will be back!

We were promptly seated and greeted by our waitress Kelsey. Kelsey was awesome!! Our cups were never empty, our food came out hot, quick, and looked and tasted amazing, from appetizer, to entrée, and desert. I can’t speak for any of the other servers but if you eat here, ask for Kelsey and you won’t be disappointed.
