Great home town southern comfort food. I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but they did not disappoint.

We rode the Longleaf Trace bike trail from Hattiesburg to Sumrall a couple of times just to eat at Lau-Tori’s Fine Foods. The owners are really nice people. They’ve been in business over 30!

We visited twice on our 3 day bike ride. The food is excellent and the service is like a friend is welcoming you to their home. The fried chicken is incredible. Is this a Mississippi specialty or were we just lucky to eat in Sumerall. The catfish is also a must try.

My wife and I visited family in Sumrall, and we went to eat at this establishment. We were promptly seated and our wants and needs tended to immediately. The fried mushrooms are outstanding, and the entrees were delicious as well. I had the Philly cheesesteak sandwich, and the vegetables on it were cooked to perfection! The meat was savory as well. My wife had the fried catfish, and it was great as well. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone passing through, or anyone that wants a nice, quiet atmosphere.

Our favorite place Haven't tried everything on the menu but everything I've ever ordered has been delicious. Always fresh food and home cooked. And the rolls are the best I've ever ever had in my life. The catfish both filet and whole are delicious can't beat it. The chicken and dumplings are so yummy. The pineapple upside down cake is also warm and delicious and the bread pudding is delicious. My husband always gets the Lotta burger with extra chadder cheese he saids it's the best burger around. My go to has always been the fried catfish, hamburger steak, or the Country fried steak with white gravy. Everything they have is delicious been going here for atleast 17 to 18 years now. And the owners are the best like family. Just love them. Oh and the fresh garden salad is always crisp and delicious too. Always Fresh veggies. They are always pretty packed so please be patient if you have to wait a little I promise you it's so worth the wait.

While visiting the area we decided to stop in for dinner. The food and service was excellent. We may just have to make a special trip back to eat again.

I believe this is the best restaurant in the pine belt. The quality is unmatched. Every thing on the menu is good. The chicken and dumplings are amazing. The salads are great and they have homemade dressing. The burgers are unmatched. The chicken and more dish is fantastic. Wonderful desserts. The atmosphere is calming and lovely. The staff and owner work so hard to make this food so consistent. Gotta try it!
