    An absolute dream! The food is incredible. The service awesome! The chef, Austin, came out to each table to make sure everything was ok. It was our anniversary and we were given two glasses of champagne. This is our favorite place to eat on the coast. It's truly amazing!

    Food was good but most higher end locations use alittle too much salt and butter. Food was still good, but only ate 1/2 of mine and took the rest home for the next day. Waiter and Manager could have come by and had a conversation with us but never did…We are Southerners and always enjoy a conversation with the staff, especially when spending alittle more money on a special occasion. Ambience was great. Nice place to enjoy food, family, drinks, etc. I will return. I give it a 4.2 overall

    We both agreed that this is our new favorite restaurant. We are so thrilled to have found it on Open Table. It was absolutely delicious in a perfect environment with amazing service (Thanks, Mike!). We started with the oysters trio, upgraded with Murder Point oysters, as we have family ties to MP and were so excited to see them on the menu. My husband had the crackling encrusted swordfish and I had the 14 oz striploin. I usually go for the filet, but wanted to try something different. NO regrets! Thanks White Pillars for a perfect evening. We will be back. Can't wait to see what's on the menu next time.

    The restaurant is beautiful! I made reservations for the Thanksgiving Day dinner earlier than I did the last time because they ran out of half the menu items and then to be told that they ran out of one of the sides yet again… The waitstaff was personable and professional , the overall dinner was delicious!!!

    This was a Thanksgiving seating. The first course came to the table right after drinks were served. We then waited 35-40 minutes before our entree was served. This seemed like a fairly long time. We understand that your restuarant was busy but that is too long between courses. We were dissapointed. The service was excellent, the food very good and the value was good.

    Went for a pre fix Thanksgiving dinner. First course soup was tasty but small serving. Both my wife and I’s entrees were very salty, commented to the waiter whose response was “Yeah my last table said that too”. When bill came the recommended tips were calculated after not just tax but the “non-cash adjustment” Why you I tip on Tax?

    We were in Biloxi for business. The week before I saw White Pillars advertised on Southern Living and went online to reserve our table. We ordered a steak and a duck dish. They were superb. We loved it. The interior was very nice. And our waiter Anthony was very helpful and he was a delight. We live in Texas when we go back to Biloxi we’ll definitely go there again. It was Paul’s birthday, he had an amazing time.

    Another exceptional dining adventure at the Coast's best restaurant. Started with the oyster/artichoke soup with lightly crusted swordfish as my entree. Paired with excellent wines recommended by bar manager, Robert Campbell. It's no wonder chef Austin Sumrall has won so many local, regional and national awards for his farm-to-table cuisine. Who knows what the future holds in store for this world-class chef. I just hope he doesn't forget is humble roots here in Biloxi, MS.

    Service from checking to finish was impeccable. The bar was nice and and buzzy, the mood upbeat and the decor lovely. The drinks were excellent, as were the appetizers (oysters and pimento cheese). Those in our party who ordered fish dishes loved it. Those who ordered pork or beef found it their entree fatty and only passable. The staff could have done a better job trimming or cooked it a bit better to render more of that out. On to dessert which scored very high marks (cookies and cream cheesecake and the coffee pot de crème).
