Alabama NewsCenter — Jesse’s Restaurant is an Alabama hidden gem with a leisurely vibe

Jesse’s Restaurant calls itself “one of the best-kept secrets in the South.” It anchors a street corner in one of Alabama’s tiniest towns, Magnolia Springs, a small enclave (population 723) and hidden gem that’s sitting in the shadows of more crowded coastal locales like Fairhope, Orange Beach, Gulf Shores and Foley.

Jesse’s also shares its hometown’s ambiance. Time seems to slow down in Magnolia Springs, perhaps lulled by the shade from the area’s many and ancient live oaks. Or maybe it’s simply keeping pace with the lazy current of the Magnolia River as it flows through town. Whatever causes it, this leisurely vibe permeates the walls of Jesse’s and is your first clue that your meal will provide much more than food.
