JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – Eudora’s Mississippi Brasserie in Jackson has closed permanently.
The restaurant opened in The District at Eastover in November 2023. It was the first business in Mississippi to be certified as paying employees a Fair Living Wage, according to owner Tyler Alford.

“Due to unforeseen renovation delays and costs our budget presented a challenge from day one. Despite maintaining exceptionally high reviews, we did not see the organic growth that we have seen work so well in other markets. We committed to paying a living wage through a combination of tips and hourly pay and that was a proportionately challenging decision in a declining market. We thank Jackson for welcoming and joining us for this all too short journey,” said Alford.
According to The District at Eastover, Mississippi chef and restaurateur Derek Emerson will be taking over the space at 100 District Boulevard.
