Mississippi isn’t exactly known for its Italian food, but that doesn’t mean it’s “impastable” to get real Italian grub. You just have to know where to look. And according to MSN, you should be looking at The Sicilian II, the best old-school Italian restaurant in the state.

In March 2021, MSN named The Sicilian II in Biloxi “one of the top 50 old school Italian restaurants in America.”
