Tiny, roadside restaurants with big flavors are great finds when you happen to discover one. The Lunch Lady in Ridgeland (Okatie, to be exact) is one of those treasures you’re sure to love. No bigger than a cheese box, The Lunch Lady delivers huge flavors by way of Southern American fare inside a small and cozy space with a vintage flare.

The vibe here is retro and casual and sure to make everyone feel right at home. Stop in for a casual meal you're sure to remember.

By far, one of the highlights of the menu is the Cheddar Crisp Burger. It's loaded with cheddar cheese that oozes out the side to form a nice cheddar crisp at the base of the burger. Tasty!

Of course, the menu is laden with other can't-resist goodness, too.
