Keifer's Coming to Madison

Keifer's will open a restaurant on Highland Colony Parkway across from Broadmoor Baptist Church in Madison. 

Madison approved the restaurant's plans last night.

Hope it is better than its other restaurants via its menu. The other restaurants are more akin to a Greek "Subway" Sandwich shop than a Greek/Mediterranean restaurant. I certainly do miss Athenos. BWC

Good for David Nutt!

He and his family need more money!

Obviously making way for Baptist Hospital's move out of Jackson.

I enjoy the gyro and cheese burger they serve. Is it like having one in Greece ? No, not really.

This is good. Will be a solid addition to Madison.

The rendering looks more like a funeral home. The place will be a drive-through along the lines of Burger-King.

Yay another place to eat and get fat at. Hey Madison, how about a place where people can have fun? There’s not much for kids to do

Does anything make you people happy?

Can't get here soon enough. Will be joining many other fine eating establishments in the area. Unfortunatley, I wonder how long the Poplar Boulevard store will remain open. Should be seeing more Jackson folks in Madison.

I think this is awesome news.

My god...you people, sheesh.

I’m sure it will do well. Most of these people are like my wife. You could throw a bag of $100 bills, totaling a million dollars, in her lap and she would complain because the bag wasn’t pretty. You whining people are sad.

Good news. Hopefully they make the parking spaces wider and a better parking lot than the Belhaven location.

Great news. Keiffer's pita with feta is excellent. Kristos has a good one too. Krilakis is excellent. Madison County has some good Greek eateries. Add in YaYa's if you want more of a dining experience.

Keifer's is a good place. I enjoy it. Hope they do well.

So excited!!

No security guards will be needed in the parking lot at the Madison location. That will lower overhead costs and allow the addition of drive-thru to add extra income to the operation.

People wake up bright and early each and every morning only to display hate and negativity as anonymous commenters on a garbage blog. Make it and
Sense.

I'm happy Keifer's is coming to Madison.

There are plenty of things for kids to do in Madison, just go outside & look. Parks, bicycle trails & The Reservoir for recreation.

Kingfish you beat me to my comment. Some people will complain no matter what.

Really, what a bunch of whiners. Kiefers in Jackson kills it. That place is packed. The second location is just a reflection of the success they have in Jackson. The original restaurant isn't going anywhere regardless of what the perpetually negative and aggrieved posters on this site want to believe.

Heard that song before but Jackson crime, surface sewage discharges and water problems has a way of grinding down even the most strident supporters.

Kingfish said...

Belhaven is staying open. Restaurant said so. Building is fairly new, no problems that plagued others such as Lou's, and it stays busy. Why would it move?

Anonymous said...

Sincerely, why make the trek in crazy traffic down south when you can stay safe in your own back yard? Or come over from the area while you spend your money in Madison County on the weekends as most do? Makes sense to me... besides, Baptist alone will keep Poplar open, and those of us still cursed to have to work downtown will do our part for North Congress. No one is going out of business... it is a win for all.

Feel free to open whatever kid-oriented facility you would like to see. It's a free country and all that......

Great news! Since I rarely go that area of Jackson any more, but always enjoy Keifer's, I will definitely enjoy the new location. Thanks for the update, KF!

Now one can enjoy their gyro and pita mozz and not worry if their Ford F150 will get broken into or flat out stolen from the parking lot.

You go to YaYa's if you want greek food. You go to the others for American greek food. And I like them all!

@10:41 Jackson requires a 9'x18' parking space. Mayor Mary requires a 10'x20' parking space. The extra foot of width is one of the greatest things about Madison. It's so much easier to park in Madison versus other places.

Hate to see it. Madison offers absolutely nothing to anyone

Sure, it makes my day, actually, to wait for 8:00 a.m. to see all the new posts on nine Jacktown/Lumumba threads. That just makes me happy as a clam.

And your constant passive/aggressive personality is noted, KF.

That plan will never work in Madison. The building is not brick and it has no arches.

Should be interesting enough. If they were smart they would’ve got it as close to 463 as possible.
I was always amazed that the location next to Baptist kept chugging along, but then again hospital employees an Millsaps students were a big reason. What’s more amazing is the next street over (West) was the edge of everything gone downhill.

David turner the developer of lost rabbit lives in Belhaven and is developing Belhaven township. It’s really neat so far
I work with some GI associates physicians that are helping him on this and live there as well
Seems like a nice plan and plenty of good people live in Belhaven and kiefers could never close that location nor are they planning on it. Place stays packed and they support the area big time. Stop with the Jackson madison Brandon bashing
People in Belhaven can afford to live where they want to they like where they live.

Well actually, we could name the business “McDowell’s.”

The owner of this troll farm is surprised anonymous posters troll on his troll farm?

It’s surreal….the owner gets $$$ from clicks so the more trolls the more money and then she clutches her pearls and screams (in her high heels and terry cloth xxx robe) “oh my you people are so negative!”

Only in America

Isn't a troll who simply makes shit up ans spews it to gaslight folks ? If a person believes what they are saying and spews is it really trolling ? This site has trolls but it isn't a troll farm. You are welcome KF.

The posters who come on this blog to mention trolls have no idea what one is...even when looking in the mirror.

Why yes, yes it does. I'm happy when the blog owner incessantly posts critically about PERS when his knowledge is infantile, at best...and when he runs four to six threads concurrently about the ills of the city of Jackson.

In fact, two-trick ponies always make me happy. Happy Happy.

The only thing different between this place and the Madison Subway Shop will be that Greeks own this one and Indians own the other.

I said the physicians live in Belhaven not the employees. I am a medical sales rep and they are one of my clients. Stop being so hasty and read posts before replying. These guys and girls I’m speaking of aren’t minimum wage in the least.

Now the MCSD central office higher-ups don’t have to travel to Jackson for their two hour lunches. They can just stay within their paycheck’s borders and laugh merrily about life and others. It’s a lucky day for them.

I look forward to go8ng and hope it succeeds.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07

Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease.

Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets.
