I am wondering if Congress can limit the SC's jurisdiction over eminent domain cases under Article III, Section 2 of the constitution and then correct this atrocity via legislation.

Congress does have the power to limit the court's jurisdiction that way, but it wouldn't overturn any ruling that's already been made. The damage was already done when SCOTUS sanctified this practice. The best solution is an unequivocal statement from legislatures from all across the country rebuking that viewpoint of theirs completely.
