Jean’s American Eatery

820 22nd Avenue, Meridian, MS 39301

601.692.7042

A Meridian, Mississippi household name for over 40 years, Jean’s is an innovative take on traditional southern fare – mixing an elegant aesthetic with authentic service to deliver classic Mississippi comfort food dishes. Everything is made fresh, with local ingredients just like your mama used to, from a kitchen with a combined 100 years of experience. Even the plates tell a story, and the mix of vintage fine china has been locally sourced from the Mississippi Delta all the way down to the Gulf Coast. Owner and operator Elic Purvis has successfully updated a local staple, seamlessly blending old and new while reducing the restaurant’s carbon footprint through the selective use of plastic.
