"Vestige is a romantic date night spot that combines contemporary American cuisine with Japanese influences, thanks to chef Alex Perry’s wife Kumi Omori’s inspiration. Expect a farm and Gulf to table multi-course chef’s tasting experience, with just-caught seafood, museum-quality composed plates of greens and vegetables, and proteins that might include perfectly cooked robata charcoal grilled wagyu beef and blistered miso “ora king” salmon. Special sushi rolls feature “Missisushi” rice from Two Brooks Rice in Sumner, MS. The prix fixe menu is $99 per person, an experience that would easily be twice the price in the big city. Chef Perry was named a 2023 James Beard Award Finalist for Best Chef South and Vestige is in the running for Outstanding Restaurant in 2024. Dinner is only served Tuesday through Saturday, so be sure to reserve." - Beth D'Addono
