"I called them on phone and they didn 't answer. I should have known something was wrong then. So, I called them on phone again later and they finally answered the phone. They said they were open today and no need for reservations. As soon as I walked in, they were a few others waiting for a hostess that never came. One customer finally went and asked a waitress to come seat us. She told me to go upstairs to sit at bar. But, once at bar. They said they serve pizza and beer only. I didn 't want that. So, I went all the way back down stairs so I could order some real food off the lunch menu. Once again, I found myself waiting to be seated at a restaurant that had no hostess. A waiter finally told me I could sit at a table along the wall. So, I finally got a seat after 15 minutes of waiting and given the run around . My waiter did bring me my sweet tea. But, it took a long time for him to take my order. During this time, he did bring me some complimentary bread and melted butter. It was pretty good. At one point, I over heard him tell some customers that they have no dishwasher, no hostess and some other people that didn 't show up. They finally brought me my spaghetti with 2 meatballs with marinara. They didn 't put enough marinara on my spaghetti. So, it was a little dry. But, I ate it anyway. Even though the portion of spaghetti was a little small. Final thoughts: I wished I had eaten at Olive Garden in Tupelo earlier today. But, I wanted to come to the Oxford Square as it had been years since I have been down here. I think it was the mid 90 's when I was down here the last time. Anyway, I don 't think I 'm coming back to this restaurant again. I was down here too long."
