Right on the eastern edge of the Mississippi Delta Region, Greenwood is a charming little town that’s home to one of the oldest restaurants in Mississippi. The Crystal Grill has been serving up some of the south’s finest food for nearly a century, and this is one restaurant where you’ll want to save room for dessert.

Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you...this is one restaurant you'll want to make time for.
