Doe’s Eat Place was established in 1941 by Dominick Doe Signa and his wife Mamie. Doe’s Father moved to Greenville in 1903 and opened a grocery store in the building that now serves as the restaurant. The family lived in a house behind the store. The grocery which the Signa Family called Papa’s Store did well until the 1927 flood. After that, Big Doe Signa went into bootlegging to help the family get back on its feet. After several years he sold his 40 barrel still for $300.00 and a Model T Ford. Around 1941 Mamie received a partial recipe for hot tamales. She improved the recipe and began selling them. That was the beginning of Doe’s.
Established American restaurant featuring steaks as well as tamales in a casual, relaxed space.

Just like the original Does in Greenville, Mississippi. All of the menu is good and the steaks are THE BEST cuts!!!!!! Has a large separate section if you are looking for somewhere to have a large gathering. If you leave there hungry, it’s your own fault. Tip: Wear loose clothing especially eating the 3lb Porter house. So Good!

TLDR; I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT!! We ate here when it first opened a couple years ago, and it was underwhelming, the steak was not seasoned, and nothing stood out. Well, last night we decided to try it again, and WOW, I am so, so glad we did! I have eaten steaks all over the country (at everything from hidden gems to Michelin star restaurants), and the steaks they served my wife and I yesterday seriously could stand up to any of them. I am beyond excited to have such an amazing steakhouse 5 minutes from my house. The sides and appetizers were absolutely delicious as well; I highly recommend the fried garlic biscuits and one of their staples, the tamales! They serve the tamales differently than they are typically served, with a side of chili to dip them in rather than in/on them. They were surprisingly good! We will be back very often!

We had heard so much about the great steaks…we ordered the steak for two. It was cooked to order but had so much gristle we could only eat about a third of it.

We were a party of two . We Called ahead to ask about needing reservations for that same evening. We were informed that they were a little short staffed , but could take us for that evening.

Unless you want to spend $30 per steak and be disappointed pass on this one . We seen the road signs that said this was a two star Michelin restaurant/ steakhouse so we decided to try it . We ordered two New York strips at 6:30 in the afternoon on a Friday night for our anniversary dinner. The lovely waitress came back said there was only one New York strip available. Obviously, they’re only serving so many New York strip and running out at 6:30 in the evening and then pushing the rest of their meat so I gave the New York steak to my husband. I ordered ribeye steak and it was severely over cooked and my husband’s New York strip came bone in. Neither of us were impressed. I did not want to make any waves being it was our anniversary so I just ate a few bites of my steak and I took the rest home to warm-up for leftovers with rice like a stir-fry. This was a one and done restaurant for us. We will not come back to this restaurant. Trust me, there’s only so many people that will come here once !!!

Only one New York steak available at 6:30 , I guess you either order something else or leave. We stayed. The New York is on the bone but the menu didn’t specify ☹️ Both our choices were good but mine was overcooked. I was hungry so I ate a little. I thought I read that this restaurant was a Two Michelin star. I wonder how long ago that was because they need to revisit that designation. The waitress was nice and efficient.

Work dinner for 10. The wine suggestions were perfect. Appetizers tasty and well portioned. Salad was very good! Had every option of the steak and everyone loved it. Wish we had room for dessert. Highly recommend.

One of the best restaurants in the area by a long shot. The filet is amazing, and the staff are both knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere in the room could use a bit of work, maybe dividers or partition walls or something to give the place the ambiance that it deserves, but it’s not enough of a detracting to really matter.
