Ravine

Mississippi


About three miles outside Oxford, this unpretentious, cozily elegant restaurant nuzzles up to the forest. Chef Joel Miller picks and pulls much of the produce and herbs from his garden and buys locally and organically whenever possible; he's been doing it long before locavore was a buzzword. The result is simply wonderful food and a delicious experience.

The parking lot is terrible though – be warned. Enter the building around back.
