H.D. Gibbes & Sons is located in Learned, Mississippi, at 130 Main Street.

This little General Store serves up delicious dinner Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 5 PM to 9 PM. While you wait for your turn to dine, chat with others on the front porch.

Dinner is served at long, communal tables.

Be prepared to sit elbow-to-elbow with new friends while you enjoy one of the best meals you've ever had.

Start with a green salad covered in Comeback Dressing.

Dinner is served on paper plates, but don't be too quick to judge. This might be the best steak you've ever had.

Pictured is the ribeye steak with spinach casserole, potato casserole and toast.

The filet is also juicy and delicious. This one was served up with roasted green beans.

The steaks are to die for, but you definitely need some dessert, too.

The Funeral Brownie is a specialty here. This warm brownie, smothered in rich, fudge sauce and topped with ice cream and whipped cream will change your life.

The strawberry shortcake is a good choice, too.

They still have the original cash register here...and they use it! Make sure you bring cash; the restaurant doesn't accept credit cards.
