The most common way to experience the Deep South is to find a street magician and hope he pulls a shiny Louisiana state quarter from your ear. Today's Groupon presents another option when there are no illusionists handy: for $10, you get $20 worth of tasty southern fare and drinks at Jefferson's Restaurant in Brentwood.

An extensive menu of fresh and comforting treats takes shape in Jefferson’s laid-back interior, where friendly servers warm up crowds with starters such as fried dill pickles ($3.05/$5.75), corn nuggets ($6.15), and Ultimate fries, smothered with three types of cheeses, Cajun seasoning, and a layer of crispy bacon ($6.25). Spice up a slow workday or a slow-moving fasting day with an order of Jefferson's fully customizable wings ($6.95–$28.50), or nosh on a fried oyster po' boy, a hearty hoagie stuffed with fresh gulf oysters that are battered and fried until golden brown ($7.95). Other seafaring portions include fried catfish ($7.45), a spicy shrimp basket ($7.95), and a melodious band of fish 'n' chips ($7.75) fronted by soulful slaw and backed by harmonious hush puppies. Customers craving candied confections can find fulfillment in slices of creamy peanut butter or pecan pie ($2.95 each).
