Deep South - McLeansboro (IL)

5 /5 Rashel Farris: Excellent Everything! Onion Rings, and Jalapeno Poppers were so good! Mushroom Swiss burger on pretzel bun and fries was yummo! The lobster alfredo, garlic bread, and salad was delicious! And the fish and seasoned fries were excellent! Our waitress Brooke Healy was very polite and attentive! The food was on our table in no time on a Friday night, and the prices were very reasonable! We will absolutely be back!

1 /5 Jaime Gonzales: We hired Adam (Deep South owner) to cater my son’s wedding on 10/11/2025. Everything was fine up until the day of the wedding. Pre wedding I had a call to go over menu, week before had another call to finalize everything. The day of the wedding was a disaster. Food was 45 mins late. 3 calls were made to the restaurant & to Adam & was told each time “the food was on the way”. The wedding venue was only 15 mins from the restaurant. The majority of the food was cold. The rolls were not fully cooked & the amount of rolls provided were not what was ordered. Missing items from the final list are as follows: entire garden salad & dressings, chafing trays, serving utensils, cups, bowls. I did call and talk to Adam on 10/14/2024 & he apologized and was sending me a refund. On 10/24/2025 I messaged Adam asking if check was in the mail as I had not yet received it & he assured me it was. On 11/11/2025 I messaged Adam again as I had not received the refund & he never responded. I would not recommend Deep South for your catering needs.

5 /5 Dan Graff: We were there on Friday night. I ordered the fish trio, shrimp, clams and fried fish. It was great. The portions were huge. The food was cooked to perfection. A lot of places dont know how to cook clam strips. These folks cooked them to perfection. We were pleased and will go back.

5 /5 Stel LaBlue: Ive been to Deep South several times and have never had a bad experience. So far, we always order a combination of wings, burgers, and Pizza. Everything has been great! We try to get a specialty pizza whenever we go. The pickle pizza is amazing as well as the chicken bacon ranch.
