Reviews for The Scratch Kitchen & Bar in Ocean Springs, MS
I came here for one thing and one thing only the Heavenly Fruit Nacho with Cheesecake Dip! If you have a sugar tooth, this is... where you want to be. I didn't even look at the menu for anything else. I was immediately treated and sat at a table on aTuesday night. Parking was hard to find, so make sure you plan ahead. The inside dining area is okay, but the outside isbetter. The hostest sat me down, and the waitress greeted me immediately. I told her what I was interested in, and withinminutes I got what I asked for. The Heavenly Fruit Nacho with Cheesecake Dip. This dessert is the right size and is meant to beshared, and even though I was by myself, I was able to finish it all. The crispy chips were covered in cinnamon and sugar, andthe fruit was fresh and covered in white chocolate and a caramel glaze. Then there was some whipped cream and a scoop ofcheesecake that looked like a ball of vanilla ice cream, which would have also worked. This dish is on another level! You havenever had something taste this good as a dessert. The only thing I would say you need to have with you is something to drinkbecause this dish is super sweet. I loved every bite, and I would come back again for this dish. I have never had anything likeit. No wonder they have it on their logo as "Home of the Heavenly Fruit Nacho." Read more
So much FLAVOR! The food is so good, the portions are huge! I will definitely be back, and trying everything on the menu!
Visiting the coast over weekend. This place came highly recommended for a brunch with live DJ. Parking was a little difficult.... (Goverment Street busy). Liked that reservations $10 was online. Arrived and seated immediately. Wasn't aware this was anon-alcoholic full service bar. (Might have been an oversight on my part when looking at menu online) anyone who enjpy coolers,wines and beers plentiful. Ordered the seafood potatoe $25...was totally disappointed as the seafood was dry and overcooked.The flavor was good but for a $25 potatoe everything has to be appetizing. The lack of circulating air. Two ceiling fans thatare entirely two high up provided NO air or cooling. This place is made of aluminum (tin) I almost fainted due to extreme heat.Please invest in swamp A/C, additional ceiling fans and always observe who are observing you. Don't show special treatment to"special guest" and provide them with a fan ( you removed from behind the bar) to give to that section when the rest of yourguest are fanning themselves with whatever they have available...i.e. your menu. I gave a 3 star (my guest wanted to give 1star)she had the chicken salad and actually wasn't able to eat. She left because of the uncomfortable temperature. DJ and young ladydoing the hookah was great. Bartender was attentive. I will attempt again on future visit to see if any changes. Read more

Very disappointed in this establishment, drove all the way from Gulfport because tons of people recommend this place, the... CHICKEN nachos are not worth the price! The chicken is obviously from a can, and if not then it surely does taste like it, thecheese is also from Sams or if not it surely does taste like it, the nacho chips were generic too! I paid .50cent for a tablespoon of sour cream. The fruit nachos we ordered to go, fruit was fresh just did not get a lot for the price paid. Overall,staff was friendly, great vibes, food for the price NOT IT! Read more
Great patio, we had to pay $10 per person to sit on the patio. Seemed a little steep due to a band performance. Food was... nothing special. I ordered nachos, thinking they would be fresh made chips with homemade cheese sauce. Turned out to be cheaptortilla chips from Sam's club with cheap canned cheese sauce, at a whopping $20. Not enough gluten free options. Too expensivefor the quality of food. Read more
This was our first time here. We were in for my sister-in-laws birthday. The restaurant itself was cute, the vibe was great, the... employees were extremely nice and welcoming when you walked in. I ordered the big billy bbq sandwich.. it was extremely good!!The bbq sauce was PERFECT. Found out that it?s homemade bbq sauce. The owner should definitely think about selling it because iwould definitely buy some. I also got the Mississippi mud parfait. It was huge and delicious! Definitely can?t wait to come backand try other stuff on the menu Read more
Listen. We got one thing and one thing only. And if you do nothing else. Get the Heavenly fruit nachos. Everything was fresh.... Everything was in good proportion to compliment another. It was amazing. Read more
