Some of the state’s best grub is hiding in the most unassuming places. That’s surely the case with Klondyke, which is housed in a former gas station. Appearances can be deceiving, though, because the modest eatery actually serves up some of the best grub in the state. Take a look:

One look at Klondyke in Vicksburg, and it’s clear that it’s not your typical restaurant.

Actually, it’s not exactly obvious that it’s even a restaurant at all. However, we can assure you that it’s a restaurant – and an award-winning one at that!

Klondyke - more specifically its great grub - has been recognized numerous times since opening nearly two decades ago.

Best Hamburger, Best Catfish, Best Steak, and Best Lunch are just a few of the awards bestowed upon Klondyke.

With a hodge podge of kitschy décor, the restaurant’s interior is far more eye-catching than the exterior.

Sure to keep you entertained while waiting for your grub, the walls are plastered with everything from vintage signage to mounted taxidermy.

The unique décor even extends to the bar, which is covered in hundreds of pennies.
