This cute, nonprofit restaurant that trains others to succeed in life was wonderful. The staff was super friendly. The food was delicious (I had the broccoli appetizer which was perfectly cooked/seasoned and the Thai salad). I would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back myself.

This is a great little place to have a fresh delicious bite to eat and support a good cause. The interior is bright, clean, and happy. They are a bit short handed but be patient, its worth the waite and the waite staff is so friendly and attentive.

We found this cute little place because of the vegan options. There really aren’t many on the MS Gulf Coast. The service was wonderful. They were so kind and helpful! It was also great to learn about their story and how they are giving back to the community. The atmosphere is so laid back. The food is excellent. We enjoyed the tacos, the wrap, the mango and hummus appetizers, and dessert!

Found this place while researching best places to eat in Bay St Louis. I am glad to say this lived up to the reputation. The hostess was very sweet and welcoming. Loved our appetizer of mango capresse salad. I had a poke bowl which was very delicious with fresh Norwegian salmon. Will definitely be visiting this place again.

The 501(C)3 Starfish Cafe on Hwy 603 in Bay St Louis, MS, is fantastic. Very personal, friendly, professional service. I had a burger, cooked to perfection. My dining companion had a chicken yeero. He ate every bite! I highly recommend the Starfish Cafe for their food as well as their mission. The attached photos of the menu are for brunch and Saturday night Italian night.

First visit ever to the NEW Starfish Cafe now in Waveland! The food, staff and atmosphere was so wonderful! The burgers were locally sourced and they had a gluten free option for me for the bun! 10/10 coming back again and again!

Fresh, healthy, tasty and local. From the moment that we sipped the ice-cold, unsweet tea from a mason jar, I knew that anything we ordered was going to be truly amazing. I looked across the table at my wife and her eyes confirmed it. If you can figure out the keys to one of the blandest drinks on the planet, I’m telling you that we both got excited. We ordered the hummus and tzatziki with pitas. The fresh hummus had a slight hint of roasted red pepper and the tzatziki popped with mint that made it so, so refreshing. We also had the blackened tuna tacos, and the combination of flavors and perfectly seared yellowfin were beyond expectation. Lastly, we had the Bay Rat pasta with zoodles. I have lived all over the world tasting different kinds of pasta and I easily give this dish a 9.5 out of 10. Di is bringing the taste and flavors of a gourmet restaurant to a little vibrant café. I can’t wait to come back and we’ll be telling our friends and family to stop by and visit. Di also operates a non-profit experiential learning program for students over the age of 18. They receive On Job Training in restaurant, job, and life skills so when thinking about the tip, throw in more than normal as an in-kind donation. We need more of this in our community.

Awesome vibe, great people, food is top knotch. We had hummus, Greek cucumber stuff I can’t spell, and pita. Everything felt like it was made in house. The cucumber dressing had chunks of cucumber and had a smoothc slightly tangy, perfectly balanced with dill dressing. The hummus was creamy and rich. I haven’t had hummus this good in 16 years.
