Oyster bar restaurant
Southern restaurant (US)
Wintzell's Oyster House is a renowned seafood restaurant that has been a staple in Mobile, Alabama since 1938. Originally starting as a small oyster bar, it has now grown into an informal chain eatery known for serving fresh Gulf Coast seafood, including their famous oysters prepared fried, stewed, or nude. The restaurant has received accolades for its oysters and crab, recognized as the best in various publications.
We enjoyed a great meal. The bienville oysters were delicious. The gumbo had a nice little kick to it and a great consistency. The strawberry shortcake included ice cream on top which was very tasty. We had excellent service and great tasting food. The fried green tomatoes were also very good, including what they called gravy which was a seafood sauce that you could put on the tomatoes which made them even more delicious. Besides being great food the atmosphere is fun because the walls are covered with short, funny jokes everywhere you look. It's non-stop fun reading all of the jokes on the walls!

I was extremely excited for this as I had heard so much about the quality of food and the overall experience. Maybe my expectations were too high. The service was great and the food was good not great. The restaurant has character and could be a little cleaner. Parking was easy as it was right across the street but it was a Sunday night and if really busy downtown parking could be a challenge.

My husband and I tried Wintzells Oyster House recently and both liked it. We ordered the oyster sampler and the shrimp sampler. He loved his oysters. My shrimp sampler was pretty good but most of them were overcooked. Service was great and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Parking wasn't bad since they have a dedicated parking lot across the street. Bring a jacket because they keep the restaurant cold!

Tried it based on reviews and liked it. We had grilled oysters and the broiled platter. Oysters were small ( reportedly because of this time of year which we can live with but they were slightly overcooked and one oyster was only bread which they offered to fix but we declined as we were getting ready to leave. We really enjoyed the meal and almost perfect. Yes we would try it again.

We came in during day busy time of the evening. So we sad at the bar waiting for a seat . Cavarius, the cook , noticed we were sitting there and asked if he could do anything to serve us. So he took care of our air if you need and we were able to order an entree as well as a food meal and had a wonderful time sitting there enjoying his service! Awesome place can't wait to come back!

A perfect lunch spot while traveling! We enjoyed everything from the yummy food to the fun atmosphere to the top tier service. Kasondra was a delight, and she didn’t miss a beat. She’s the best restaurant server we’ve had recently. Wintzell’s has been around for a while, and we understand why!

Restaurant
The Noble South is a charming eatery located in Mobile, Alabama, offering inventive Southern-inspired cuisine and cocktails in a rustic-chic setting. Chef Chris Rainosek proudly emphasizes relationships with local farmers and suppliers to create excellent value plate lunches, ambitious Meatless Mondays, brunches, and dinners. The restaurant reimagines classic Southern dishes using fresh local ingredients and offers an extensive bourbon list.
Everything has a most delicious explosion of flavors! Nothing disappointed and in fact was far more delicious than it even appeared! Do be aware the menu changes regularly so if you see anything in the reviews it may not be available.

I had the pleasure of having lunch at The Noble South in Mobile, Alabama, with a few of my colleagues, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is charming—stylish yet comfortable—and perfect for a midday break or a casual business lunch. I ordered the blackened catfish, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. It came with a crisp kale salad and some delicious fried potatoes—simple sides done exceptionally well. Portion sizes were satisfying without being overwhelming. The service was warm and attentive, and our meals came out in great time, even though the restaurant was nicely busy. It’s always a treat to find a place that delivers both quality food and a great vibe. We left feeling happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!

Exceptional Brunch at The Noble South The breakfast casserole was a standout—light, almost quiche-like in texture, with savory housemade sausage, spinach, parmesan, and a delicate sauce vierge. I added the trout roe from my wife’s plate, and it elevated the dish beautifully—rich, briny bursts that complemented the warmth and richness of the casserole perfectly. My wife ordered the sourdough scramble, which was equally well-executed. The eggs were soft and flavorful, folded with oyster mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, ricotta, and pesto. A thick slice of sourdough toast was served on the side—crisp, hearty, and a perfect pairing. Every bite reflected care, balance, and seasonal thoughtfulness. Easily one of the most memorable brunch experiences we’ve had.
Ottis H — Google review
Ordered all 6 dinner dishes they had and every one of them was delicious. Everything was unique compared to other restaurants. Each dish has at least 4 flavors going on, all complimenting each other. I'd say the best was either the duck or the shrimp and grits. But the short ribs was a top notch piece of meat cooked just right. And the peaches and cream dessert was awesome.
Alan W — Google review
Such quality. Came in for brunch on a Saturday, very welcoming environment, Trent made a cocktail that really hit the spot. He made sure I was enjoying it which was appreciated. The fried oyster benedict was pretty magical. The batter was particularly flavorful, and the thin layer of ham packed in a lot of punch as well. It was the kind of meal where you feel sad that it’s over.

Stopped here for dinner as the menu sounded really interesting. We got a good spread and overall it was good. The small plates and appetizers seem to be where they shine. The dinner and the dessert were good but not amazing. We found them to be a little bland but it could have just been an off night. The location is very nice and the atmosphere is adorable. We found the staff very friendly and accommodating. We ordered the deviled eggs ( delicious) , the pickled shrimp (delicious), the blue cheese jam sourdough (good the blue cheese was a little strong to me but the bread was excellent), the hot honey fried game bird ( excellent), shrimp and grits (good a little bland) , the swordfish schnitzel (good a little bland as well and heavy), apple cobbler ( good) and the banana pudding (ok we didn't like it very much but it wasn't bad). Overall a cool place to stop and we really liked the atmosphere, apps and small plates.

We tried this place because it said “from farm to table” and it did not disappoint! Everything was so fresh, the shrimp were large, and the booze perfect. They were so friendly they even convinced us to get their cobbler. Fun staff, lovely atmosphere, they will definitely see us again.

Dauphin’s Casual Fine-Dining offers a unique experience with its location on the 34th floor of one of Mobile's tallest skyscrapers, providing breathtaking panoramic views. The restaurant features a modern twist on French Creole cuisine, showcasing dishes like Rasta Pasta and Banana Docks Chicken. Guests can enjoy the stunning panorama view of Mobile Bay while savoring dishes that honor local products and ingredients, such as Alabama Gulf shrimp.
I attended the restaurant for the first time for my birthday and a few weeks later I attended the Sunday Jazz Brunch. It offered great customer service, ambiance, views as well as good cocktails and food. I enjoyed the layout of the restaurant which separated lounging from dining.

We had a lunch reservation for 12:15 on a Friday. We walked in and no one was behind the hostess desk for a few minutes. As a result, I looked around me and noticed how the carpet needed vacuuming. Finally someone came out and was friendly and seated us. We had made a reservation but I thought the place was empty based ok how quiet it was so didn’t mention it. After being seated and noticing tables with better views I asked the server if we could have a better view since there were 4 2-person tables open. We got a better view and then waited for a while for a server to show up. I think they were understaffed because everyone was very personable but it was quite slow. No big deal as we were not in a rush. We finally got our drinks and food and bread. The bread was great with 2 types of butter. The food was good but not quite up to what I expected based on the reviews. I would say this is a great lunch place but I’m not sure I would want to spend the dinner prices there based on the food being more good than great. We enjoyed our lunch and will be back. PS love the $4 mini desserts for lunch. Great idea (see the pictures)

My husband surprised me for our anniversary w dinner at Dauphins. Amazing from start to finish! We had the seasonal pork belly starter, then he had the seasonal duck and I had the seasonal pecan crusted chicken. We both had a glass of great wine as well. For dessert we shared the crème brûlée and finished w their chocolate mint ganache served cold over dry ice.

My party and I were excited to visit after reviewing the menu online, particularly looking forward to trying the cheese plate appetizer. However, when we inquired about it, our server asked if we had tried it before. We told him it was our first time dining with y'all, and he advised us against ordering it, describing it as “not worth it” and “disappointing,” and instead attempted to steer us toward other options we weren’t interested in. Ultimately, we opted just to enjoy the complimentary bread served with that delicious hibiscus butter. Later in the evening, after we had already placed our entrée orders, our server returned with an assistant and showed us a cheese plate he was delivering to another table, presumably to demonstrate why he found it disappointing. To our surprise, it looked exactly as we had hoped and quite delicious to our eyes, but at that point, it was too late to order an appetizer, and we were genuinely disappointed to have been talked out of trying it ourselves. That said, I want to highlight that our entrées were outstanding, beautifully cooked and flavorful. Additionally, the woman working at the hostess stand graciously took photos of our group on the way out and made us feel warmly welcomed. Her thoughtful service was a lovely way to end the evening and left a positive impression. Thank you for taking the time to read this, as you did not respond to a private message. I offer this feedback with the hope it might be helpful for training and service consistency, as we’re looking forward to returning and trying the cheese plate next time.

Dew Drop Inn Restaurant, the oldest eatery in Mobile, is a beloved spot for locals seeking classic American fare in a nostalgic setting. The restaurant is renowned for its chili dogs and mammoth po-boys with crispy, cornmeal-battered oysters. In addition to burgers and hot dogs, the unassuming establishment offers an array of dishes including seafood, chicken, and sandwiches like fresh crab meat and fried shrimp served with fries.
A Mobile Classic, my grandparents used to go out on dates here back in the 50’s. Dew Drop just celebrated 100 years. Truly such a cute diner- the food has always been spectacular! I ordered the Double cheeseburger which comes with chili on it- so good! And I got a half order of onion rings and fries- because who doesn’t love a little bit of both?!? Their soup of the day was Shrimp and Corn soup and it was really good- the flavors were on point. The staff are always speedy and friendly. You’re able to get in and out pretty quickly- but note majority of the time they are pretty packed so you may have to wait for a table a time or two. Parking is kinda all over the place but overall it’s worth it !

Just a great vibe here. You can definitely feel the history. The hot dog is a must as that is what they are known for, but other menu items are solid as well. I will always get an order of onion rings. The hamburger reminds of school cafeteria, but in a good way. Service is friendly and prompt.

Historic old place with decor to prove it. Great service even tho busy, delicious food. Had cheeseburger they are famous for with chili. The chili is more like sloppy joe and an amazing addition! Steak style fries were crispy outside and soft inside and delicious. Local art adorns the walls for a unique experience unlike anywhere else and most are for sale! Definitely would recommend.

Best place to get your hot tongs. Especially an upside down dog of where the weenies on top, and all the Goody stuff is, underneath that way, it doesn't spill off the hot, tall, the when's are actually boiled in beer. Some of the best food that you can ever find located near mobile and firmly on old shell road.

We are completely regretful... For not going at Dew Drop Inn before today!! We own a place in Mobile for over 10 years and it's been over 5 years that we told ourselves that we should go... About the saying for Dew's hot dogs being the best: yep! Simply out of this world!! Fully loaded and tasteful. For the record, we were with 2 hungry teenagers (after a nearly 3 miles walk!) and they were full after one hot dog... Also, try the onion rings: clearly hand made with a great pepper zip. If you think A&W's onion rings are excellent, they will be #2 after you taste the ones at Dew's. Finally, the service: warm, welcoming, fast, smiling and doing the extra mile to make our visit a great experience! (We've had home made Gumbo soup samplers that were delicious). After a visit, you will understand why clients always come back at the Dew Drop Inn

Loved the DDI! I had read about this oldest restaurant in Mobile & have wanted to try it. We opted for the daily special, the hamburger steak with gravy. He had Mac&cheese & turnip greens, I had lima beans & mashed potatoes. All delish! We couldn't eat it all! We will be back - next time to try the famous hot dogs!

I have been wanting to visit this place because every time we pass by there is a nice little crowd. We finally got the chance to stop in. I will definitely be going back again. It had a nice atmosphere nothing fancy you felt good just casual and just taking it easy there. Of course we wanted to try the famous hot dogs. They we're good but the onion rings were absolutely delicious! I would be happy just to have a plate of those because they were DELICIOUSLY CRUNCHY! We will definitely be going back there.

It is open for dine-in. The employees were really great. They were so kind. Food is mediocre. If you like unique places to go, this is a good option, as it is the oldest restaurant in Mobile...as such, the interior is wearing down, but the employees did a great job of keeping things clean. I think it's worth going to one time, just for the history, but if I lived in the area, I wouldn't need to go back for the food.

Taco restaurant
Roosters is a vibrant addition to the dining scene on Dauphin Street in Mobile, offering a casual atmosphere with picnic tables and a menu filled with Latin American delights. The restaurant is known for its delectable tacos and burritos, as well as refreshing margaritas. Whether you're in the mood for Al Pastor tacos with Pineapple and Mango/Habanero Salsa or Caribbean jerk chicken, Roosters has something to satisfy your cravings.
Saw Roosters on all kinds of dining lists for Mobile, so had to try it out. We were not disappointed! Went for dinner around 5 on a Saturday night and it was half full, no problem finding a table. Couple tables outside on a small patio, too. Staff were friendly, and food was ready in good time. Note that you cannot mix and match individual tacos for a taco plate if you want the deal! Ordered a Rooster Sunrise margarita, 2 chorizo tacos, 1 jerk chicken taco, 2 al pastor tacos, and sides of plantains and chips w/ queso. All were excellent. Loved that they jave a hot sauce and toppings bar to further customize, too. The plaintains on the chorizo tacos were inspired!

We dined outside on a beautiful night. Cool spot to people watch. Our waitress was super personable and offered great menu guidance when we asked. We started with chips and the trifecta: queso, guacamole, and salsa. I’m not normally tortilla chip obsessive, but their chips are thicker than most and were very obviously fresh. The queso…so good that I’d have gladly chugged the bowl if I didn’t fear the scorn of my easily-embarrassed-by-mom 10-year-old. Our kids ordered from the kids menu. They were both pleased with their choices - chicken taco for one and cheese quesadilla for the other. The kids’ plates each came with their own chips and queso, as well. I opted for 2 street tacos - jerk chicken and al pastor. Our waitress said she gets an al pastor every day she works. After tasting it I saw why. The meat was ridiculously tender and flavorful. Probably one of the best Al pastors I’ve ever had. My husband got the torta de carnitas. Based on the speed with which he inhaled it, I’d say it was a big hit. We didn’t venture in to the salsa bar, as we were moving minimally after a long day at the beach. But apparently we missed out on quite a selection.

Went down on a busy Saturday night while artists in the park was on display. No street parking, only parking garage in rear at a cost of $10-25. Waitress was not dressed very professionally but atmosphere was very casual. Waitress was not patient with new customers. Restaurant was hot and sweaty. Chips and salsa was not bottomless and was saltless and very bland. Customer ant the table ordered guacamole dip, no salt and chips were very thick. Owner personally heated up some chips for one of the customers with me at my table and confessed he didn’t have the proper equipment to keep the chips warm, it was ordered. After we got the new chips, we felt sorry for the other customers that were being served cold, thick, and bland chips. Brisket Burrito was good, split in two as a courtesy. Manager only compensated for the bland guacamole and offered no other refunds/menu changes for the meal. Felt the meal was over priced under seasoned and not worth the jog downtown. 2/10 stars

The place looked great, but I'm not sure that the food was worthy of the price it cost. It wasn't bad by any means, but I wouldn't want to pay what I did to get it. I also was not a fan of the tortilla chips, personally. Too thick and almost bready. My friend and her family love this place though (she was here and she downed her whole plate before everyone else), so I certainly don't speak for everyone in sharing my thought on this one. Loved the exterior and interior design. Lots of hanging decor, wall decorations of various items, a hot sauce bar, wall decor in the bathroom, and neon lights outside when it gets dark! They also have outdoor and indoor seating! I'd say if you like Mexican food, it's at least worth a shot!

Let me start by saying the Surf and Turf burrito was amazing and I loved it. But, the chips were terrible and way too expensive. Their chips were very hard and not near as good as the free chips at most Mexican restaurants. The guacamole was just mediocre. Not bad but not great. For $9, the chips and guac should have been great. The salsa on the salsa bar was not good. My wife has egg and dairy allergies so she had to get something without cheese. She ordered a burrito with chicken and veggies. They forgot to put the veggies in the burrito. Apparently, the cheese gives the burrito all the flavor as her burrito was very bland and she didn't enjoy it. The restaurant was packed when we got there so we had to wait 30 mins and then were sat outside. The service was also very slow. Unfortunately, someone was smoking near us outside which was not enjoyable. Not the restaurant's fault but did not help our experience. I would come back for the Surf and Turf burrito but that's about it.

Saw this on DDD several years ago and was excited to finally be in the area to try it. We were beyond disappointed. Chips were hard as rock with no flavor to the salsa. The mahi, shrimp, and jerk chicken tacos were bland. Only things that were any good were the brisket, cheese dip, and guac. It took over 20 minutes after we finished eating to get our check. They were not that busy.

First time dining here and we had a great experience. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday. The steaks were delicious. Our waiter Connor was awesome. He was very attentive and extremely nice. We did get desserts to go. I had the cheesecake and my husband had the bread pudding - both were so good. This place was busy the entire time we were there, so make sure you make a reservation. It was a great choice for my husband’s birthday. We will definitely come back again.

If you love a scam, do not frequent this establishment. The team at TRS is honest, amazing and treats every guest as though they are the only guest. My wife and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary with the TRS family during a time of great duress. My wife’s brother was a patient at a local hospital. I completely flailed on providing a safe place for my lady in a time of great uncertainty. We decided to dine at The Royal Scam as it is directly across the street from our hotel. Upon arrival, we were graciously greeted by the maître d’ and promptly seated in a great location. Lidia and Brian were amazingly attentive to our needs. The chef and the kitchen team prepared an amazing meal for us. Due to my distraction, I did not prepare flowers, lest a card for my amazing wife. I approached the maître d’ about TRS’ main floral arrangement. I was directed to April who, without hesitation made preparations to transfer her arrangement to me for my wife. When in Mobile; you have been scammed to skip The Royal Scam. The service is legit and the food is properly prepared. Will be back. THANK YOU TRS FAMILY.

It started out promising, but my waiter let me run out of tea. For a fine dining (expensive) dinner this is unacceptable. The filet I ordered was over cooked, medium, but was served medium well. My server was polite, but letting a customer run out of tea or a beverage is unacceptable. As a general restaurant it was ok, but as a fine dining restaurant where you dress in nice clothes it’s not passable. Any fine dining restaurant would never allow a guest to run dry and start drinking their fellow diners drink. Also, the bar is adjacent to the tables and the bar tender was too boisterous.

Delicious food and great service. Erica was our waitress. She was friendly, polite and helpful the entire time of our dining experience. My Wife had the seafood gumbo appetizer. She said it was delicious. I had the crab cake appetizer. The crab cake itself was delicious but when I tasted it with the (lemon sriracha aioli) sauce, oh my goodness. I was expecting the normal sauce but it had a taste different than normal sauces and it goes perfectly with the crab cake. My wife had the steak. She said it was delicious. My redfish was delicious. The sauce enhanced the flavor of the redfish. The Brussels Sprouts were cooked perfectly. They were not overcooked and dry or undercooked and raw. They were just right. The rice was not cooked to mush or undercooked. It was cooked to perfection and the presentation was spectacular. When you go, make reservations in advance and ask for Erica as your server. She will ensure you have an enjoyable dining experience. If you like seafood, I highly recommend the Redfish entree and crab cake appetizer. Wonderful location for a date night or a special occasion with a relaxed atmosphere!

We had a beautiful dinner! We had the Hanoi shrimp as an appetizer. They even added an extra one to make it even, normally it comes with three. It was great! I recommend it, especially if you like japanese cusine. It has a spicy wasabi creme, a ginger sauce that was delicious! For main dinner, I had the hidden gem - the ribeye - it was perfectly done! Melt in your mouth perfection! Is not on the menu, so ask for the specials. He had the land and sea, and as well, it was also delicious. Filet mignon and crab cakes. I had the Georgia Belle cocktail. It was fruity and strong! Plus, I had a glass of red wine with the meal. We also shared the bread pudding. It was a bit too hot, but we saved it for a night cap later. Once cooled off, it was delicious! All an all, perfect! Our server was Britney, and she was great, ask for her.

This is our first time dining here, and it was a great experience. We started with seafood gumbo & Soup du hour for the appetizers. The entree for the night was grilled redfish and coffee braised short ribs, and dessert was bread pudding. All the dishes were amazing. We'll be back again to try more menu items. Our goal is to try everything on the menu out. Thank you so much. See you all next time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ESTABLISHMENT!!!

Hats off to RW for making our stop in Mobile such a pleasure 😊 we were on a long road trip back to central Florida and decided to stop for lunch. Seems there was a call out and it was his first time tending bar. I have to say he was stellar and a great conversationalist. He recommended burgers for us and they hit the spot for our long trip ahead. Bar was clean, bathrooms clean! Place is quirky with tons of great memorabilia hanging around. Fun to see. Menu is imaginative with plenty of beers to choose from. We will be back! Good luck RW

This is a super grungy place. Even the staff is grungy and look unkept. Our server had absolutely no personality. She came to the table and said "may I help you?" "Yes", I responded. " I'll have a burger well done". The first burger was medium rare, and so was the second one. The server said, "We cook them medium rare". So, we left.

Our visit resulted in very ambitious feelings. On the bright side they do have a lot of good beers on tap, and by a lot I mean many dozens. However there were some not so bright aspects of our experience. First I’ve asked about local beers and they suggested to pick a set of flights for me. However I was really surprised when got three beers from Alabama and one from California. I might be not really profound in the geography of the New World, but that was a bit strange even for me. I have to admit I was immediately offered to replace that over boring Stone IPA with a local one and they did replace it indeed. Then, my wife ordered a steak sandwich and asked to make it rare. The space was not too overcrowded, but it took 27 minutes to get us that sandwich, and stake piece of it was dramatically over well done. Also, when I tried to order my second set of beer flight I realized that although they are listed as a verified untapped venue their online menu on untapped was outdated. I had to search really hard to find something that they have listed on untapped and they do have available at the same time. And the last but not least when I asked for a check they took my card and brought we only credit card slip, without any itemized receipt. And the charge looked just a bit too high. It was almost $60 before taxes and everything, meanwhile I expected to be under $50. So I asked for the itemized receipt to be sure that i has been charged correct my. Of course I was not. There was an extra $9 item which we did not order. And again, when I pointed to it, the problem was fixed quickly, and with no argument, and they did apologized. However although it was fixed what bothers me is how come (and why) I have not got an itemized receipt at all in the first place (until I explicitly asked for it)! Is it even legal? Is there any other reasonable and credible explanation of not been automatically provided the itemized receipt, except that I have been tried to be tricked? Well… even if there is, I do not see one. So, please, proceed with carel.

Just when we thought we’d had every kind of burger out there, this place completely raised the bar. Hands down, the best burger we’ve ever eaten, juicy, perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and packed with flavor in every bite. The bun held together beautifully, the toppings were fresh and balanced, and the whole thing was the kind of meal you don’t want to end. The service was friendly and everything came out hot and fast. Honestly, if you’re a burger lover, you need to try this spot it’s a game changer. We’ll definitely be back.

I've been hearing about this place for years, especially about the burgers. I went when they were having the Halfway to Joe Cain Day event. I had no idea how small the inside is. They had a live band so there was no seating on the main floor and the room up the stairs was booked for a party. The outside tables were already claimed so we ended up getting two burgers to go. The staff was friendly and offered to refund the cover charge since we decided to leave. The burger was good when I got home.

Located in the Oakleigh Historic Garden District of Mobile, Alabama, The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar is a seafood restaurant owned by Chef Jim Smith. The menu features elegant seafood dishes and a must-try starter called Biscuit Service. One of its standout desserts is the Lane cake, known for its coconut, raisin, and pecan-infused icing soaked in whiskey. The restaurant offers a fresh take on local seafood fare and has received praise for its inventive menu and friendly service.
We organized a special post-graduation celebration at The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar, a charming spot that immediately captured our attention. Our server, Julia, was exceptional—her attentiveness and warmth made us feel truly welcomed throughout the evening. The food we savored was nothing short of exquisite, with each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The drinks complemented our meal perfectly, enhancing the overall experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and cozy, providing an ideal backdrop for our lively conversations. We never felt rushed, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment of this memorable occasion. Thank you so much for enhancing our day!

Truly a dining experience that you’d expect to find somewhere like New York, but it’s right here in a cozy, historic Mobile neighborhood. We went for a celebration and enjoyed a 5-course tasting menu with wine pairings. Local farm/surf-to-table cuisine prepared by a real chef…not a cook. Tasting menu (see photos) changes based on what’s in season. Oyster selection was very good.

Very humble yet elegant place. It’s a perfect place for a quaint unfussy meal— to catch up with an old friend or host an intimate celebration. I went on a lunch date with my husband. I got the hanger steak and eggs; he got the flounder. I have no complaints, the service was great and the food was delicious. The hanger steak was perfectly medium rare and the flounder was also cooked well. I liked the blue cheese butter with the steak, but I think a peppercorn sauce or some light gravy would have tied it all together. I also thought the flounder dish was clever, it was cooked southern style with a twist: fried with a light cornmeal crust, swimming in a sweet savory Thai curry sauce. For me, the highlight of my meal was actually the oyster bisque. It was very delicate and savory. The morels gave it a very earthy taste paired with the gulf oysters the flavors was reminiscent of a surf and turf dish. Our server was very friendly and attentive. They were also very accommodating; my husband asked if they could do mocktails. The server asked what he was feeling and he asked for something savory and fruity. They took the time to craft a unique and refreshing drink for him. I thought that was awesome!

Our team at work went to The Haberdasher for drinks and some food. I had never been to The Haberdasher but I’ve heard it was good. Since I’m not much drinker I was there solely for the food. Our team a bunch of appetizers and I tried to try them all. There also was first thing that I tried was the French fries. I enjoyed them. They came with a mayo sauce. Not a big mayo on fries fan but it worked. I then tried the Brussels sprouts. Not sure what they were seasoned with but they tasted pretty good. Next was the chicken tenders. I dipped them in what seemed like a chili sauce. It had a lot of spice but it tasted good. The mahi mahi slider was next. It was my favorite appetizer. It was cooked to perfection and the sauce on the slider was very tasty. After that was the fish part of the fish and chips. I think the fish was cod. I was impressed by it. It wasn’t better than the mahi mahi but it was good. The last thing I tried were the avocado fries. I really like them. To be honest if I wasn’t full from the other food I would’ve eaten more of the avocado fries.

I stopped in yesterday (10/28/25) around 7:15PM and ordered the ribeye (medium rare). Whoever was behind that grill deserves a trophy, a raise, and possibly their own holiday. That steak wasn’t just good, it was life-altering. Hands down, the best I’ve ever had, not just in Mobile but anywhere. The temperature was spot on, the flavor was flawless, and I swear I considered calling the kitchen mid-bite just to personally thank whoever seasoned it. For my side, I swapped the fries for Brussels sprouts (a bold move that paid off big-time). They were roasted to perfection, beautifully seasoned, and might just make me a vegetable believer. All in all, that meal was so good I’m still thinking about it today (at 4AM). And the best part? I have leftovers. Let’s just say I’ve never looked forward to reheating something with this much excitement.

Felix's Fish Camp Restaurant is a rustic hideaway located on Mobile Bay Causeway, offering a unique dining experience since its opening in 2002. Despite being slightly old-fashioned now, it remains a popular choice for those seeking delicious seafood, stunning views, and excellent service.
We stopped at Felix’s Fish Camp over the July 4th weekend during our RV adventure, and it was an excellent choice. First off — plenty of space to park our RV and tow car, which made everything easy from the start. The food and service were both top-notch. The oysters were impressively large and full of flavor, definitely a standout. Everything we ordered was fresh and well-prepared, and the staff made us feel right at home. An added bonus was the beautiful view of the battleship across the water — a memorable touch for the holiday weekend. We’ll definitely be stopping here again the next time we pass through the area.

Don't judge a book by its cover, mom always said. That is sound advice for Felix's. While it may not be much to look at, once you are inside, you are in for a great time. From our initial greeting by our host to the seating and introduction to our server, I knew this was an establishment that trains its staff in service. At no time were there any water glasses empty, yet we never felt interrupted. No small feat, to be sure. When it came time to order, no question was left unanswered as the server knew her menu inside and out. We had appetizers and entrees. There were four of us and four servers laid each dish on the table at the same time... from the left. You just don't expect this kind of service from a tourist, off the highway restaurant. The apps and entrees were delicious, and the local beers complimented each. Get there early and find a table with a view. If I ever return to Mobile, Felix's is what's for lunch.

I used to live in Mobile a little over 10 years ago. My friends and I used to patronize the Spot of Tea almost every weekend. Upon a recent trip to Mobile, I saw that the Spot of Tea was reopening the same day I came back into town! I HAD to visit and it did not disappoint! Since living in Mobile I have developed a gluten sensitivity and am now gluten free. This changes where I can eat and most importantly, what I can eat. The Spot of Tea owner, Tony Moore, overheard my questions about not having a gluten free menu. He inquired what I like to eat and directed his staff so that I had a wonderful meal. I had a bowl of grits topped with scrambled eggs and very well seasoned grilled chicken and a side of cheddar cheese. Yum!! After our meal, Tony inquired about our satisfaction especially my gluten free option. He told me that he would be looking into ways to accommodate diners who need or want to see gluten free options. It was so refreshing to have such an attentive experience from the owner! I can’t wait to visit again! Thank you, Tony and Spot of Tea staff. If felt like old times visiting again. It was the highlight of our trip.

My guest and I absolutely enjoyed the food at Spot of Tea. From the moment we entered, we were greeted by friendly waitresses and a gentleman, I think, was the manager. There is definitely ol school service, and I love that about the restaurant. The waitresses were very descriptive of the menu and honestly were also fun to talk to. Our waitress "Shea" ( I hope I got her name right) was top-notch. She checked our table so much I had to stop her from refilling my coffee. I say this with a huge smile because of how much I love great customer service. I had the Cajun Shrimp and Grits. My guest had The Eggs Cathedral. When I say both were delicious, lord hammercy, I ain't lying! The Egg Cathedral was a delicious English muffin, topped with a crab cake, scrambled eggs, topped with a seafood sauce with blackened Grouper, Crawfish, Jumbo Shrimp and hashbrowns You heard me right. It was delicious. My Cajon Shrimp and Grits were cheesy, loaded with savory sausage, and, of course, shrimp. The voodoo sauce and green peppers added the perfect touch. Don't walk, run, and get some of that tasty goodness I enjoyed. Oopsies, I forgot to say they have good coffee too.

Atmosphere: The service was excellent, ignore all the 1 star reviews. They are more about the reviewers than the restaurant; our only complaint was that my wife and I had to wait over 15 minutes from getting our menus to being able to order. Service: But if you have some patience, it's well worth the wait. Of course if you come in with a group of 10 or 20 people, you're going to overwhelm their resources. Food: The toast was very buttery, which was unappetizing, but otherwise the food was excellent. Their new chicken and waffles were hot and delicious, and I liked the freedom of their Choose Your Own Breakfast option.

We are in town for some concerts at the Civic Center. We decided to take the short walk to this little restaurant for breakfast. It was an excellent breakfast, but a bit more than I could eat. You definitely get plenty to eat! The staff was very friendly, as we chatted with some of them. If you're in town, be sure to check them out. Come hungry and you'll leave full!

I wish I had more time to spend there, but in the short time I had, I enjoyed my experience. Beware though if you order over easy eggs. They may come out overcooked while the bacon in my opinion was undercooked. They corrected both without an issue. My son's BLT was perfection in his opinion and he appreciated the soup that came with it. Our server was helpful in explaining the menu and overall attentive.

I honestly wasn't impressed with my plate, it wasn't seasoned, I honestly left 80% of my food on the plate, so maybe I should have ordered something else. However our waitress Cindy was the absolute best, she was a Sweetie, so that made our visit exceptional.

A beautiful and unfussy American café with whiffs of French Louisianian vibes. The place can get packed, especially on the weekends, and can take a while to get a table, but it's worth it. Service is pretty good and homely (thank you Heather!) and the food is just as great. The Eggs Cathedral, in particular, are a huge portion of delicious food. Worth checking out at least once if you're in town!

Cammie's Old Dutch Ice Cream Shoppe is a beloved institution in Mobile, Alabama. The shop was originally purchased by Cammie Wayne from her former boss and has been a staple of the community for over 25 years. With its cheery yellow building, it has become an iconic spot in Midtown Mobile.
We have always loved coming to Old Dutch and it’s our number one pick for ice cream. So, of course my child wanted to have her birthday party there. And it did not disappoint! Cammie is so sweet and so were all the employees.

Had to try out this local landmark after dinner while visiting the area, and it was great! Cute little shop with a ton of invebtive flavors. Ordering can be a bit of a ratrace, but even with it fairly busy we didn't wait long before we had our order. Good prices, too! Ordered a double dip of king cake and cinnamon king cake in a dish and another double dip of king cake and strawberry oreo. Both were very good, with real pieces of king cake in those varieties!

The ice cream was delicious!! Parking was very limited, there was no restroom (from what I saw), & the inside was very difficult to move around in as the aisle was narrow and to get to the back of the line you had to squeeze to the back of the building. The staff were friendly and moving as quickly as they could for it being so busy.

Great icecream and great prices! If you're getting a scoop, you can't not get a triple! Go with 3 different flavors to really experience the quality. And they have a Guinness world record! My only recommendation is to put in a sign indicating the que for non-regulars.

This place was awesome! We had our daughters 1st birthday party here, the staff was so kind and helpful, the Ice cream was delicious! We had our party from 11 to 12 and the place didn't open till 12 so we had it all to ourselves! The kids got to make their own sundaes, everyone had a great time. They even have old sodas, we enjoyed a cold root beer. There is also a classic horse to ride with the quarters!

Go ahead, have yourself a few scoops of ice cream with a side of *privilege.* I started to write this review as it happened yesterday. But stopped and said to myself 'sleep on it first.' Because maybe, juuuust maybe I'm being dramatic or overreacting. But nope, I'm still upset. I went in to get ice cream with the 5yo I keep. We had about 2 or 3 people ahead of us. They were being helped. We patiently stood at the end waiting for assistance. All but 1 employee was busy helping others. Blondie with the braces didnt appear to be assisting anyone at the time. So we continue waiting another minute or 2. An older white man walked in and she immediately walks up to assist him. He literally walked around us with his dessert to go check out. Little miss blondie avoided eye contact and didnt give us a second thought. I wasnt otp or preoccupied with anything. I have no clue why she ignored us. After waiting a bit longer, I thought to grab her attention (even tho I shouldn't have to bc I'm not invisible- she saw me) but at that same time, more people walked in (after school rush) & she immediately helped them as well. Finally, a melanated employee walked up and helped us. Unbelievable! And mngmt can watch the security footage if they dont believe me. She bypassed us- didn't even acknowledge our presence. But she smiled and attended to "the others" But that's on par for this area.

Been coming here since I was in high school. I graduated in 1984 so go figure. The ice-cream here is the BEST. Let's not forget about the Banana splits, the Banana Royales, and the chocolate covered waffle cones with your choice/choices of ice-cream to go in them. If you don't try another ice-cream shop, please give Old Dutch at least one chance and I guarantee you'll be a repeat customer. #DeliciousIceCream #TopTier #LocallyOwnedFamilyBusiness #For40+Years

I’ve been across the country from the west coast to the east coast and I have got to say that this place might have one of the best milkshakes I’ve ever had. (Everywhere I travel to, I find a place and get a milk shake). I got the “Cookie Monster” ice cream and had them turn it into a milk shake and it delivered in all the right ways. This place has that “mom and pop” type vibe. It’s clearly been around for a while and there’s a very good reason for that. Great service, delicious ice cream and an environment that is welcoming and friendly. This might genuinely be a good reason to stop by Mobile Alabama if you’re ever around or near.

**A Delightful Culinary Experience at Squid Ink Electric Eats** Nestled in the heart of Mobile, Alabama, Squid Ink Electric Eats is a gem that truly stands out. My recent visit to this quaint little restaurant was nothing short of exceptional, offering both a delightful atmosphere and a flavor-packed menu. I opted for the Power Salad Bowl with chicken, while my wife chose the Chicken Banh Bi Salad, expertly swapping the chicken for shrimp. Both dishes were simply phenomenal—each bite was an explosion of flavor, perfectly balanced and thoughtfully crafted. The Power Salad Bowl was refreshing and hearty, and the Banh Bi Salad had a unique and flavorful twist, with the shrimp adding an elevated touch. It's evident that the kitchen takes pride in their dishes, ensuring that every ingredient shines. The service was welcoming and attentive, enhancing the overall experience.

After trying really hard to find a restaurant that wasn't a chain in Mobile, I came across this one. The food and view were amazing! It was literally the highlight of our trip to Mobile! The Spanish SOS was a great appetizer with plenty! I got the Damn the Torpedos drink, which was very very good. She said that normally they light the toothpick on fire, but just didn't have a lighter that night, which was fine. My entree was the tuna poke bao. It was perfect flavor and pretty light. My husband got the Cadillac burger Viva la France. It had a really good flavor. Overall, very impressed and would go back if I ever went to Mobile again, but probably won't.

Stopped in for lunch after the original spot I was going to was closed, was definitely a sign since this place definitely hit the spot!! Ordered a little bit of everything, all the food came out hot, staff were very friendly and helped with my selections. Inside was a lot bigger than it seemed from outside. Calamari was definitely a good choice, wasn’t overcooked and not too salty, really enjoyed the squid ink sauce. Banh mi was pretty tasty too, it did rip easily when trying to hold it but probably user error. The hot chicken sandwich!!! At first I thought it was greasy when I cut into BUT IT WAS THE JUICES FROM THE CHICKEN!! It was so freakin good!!! 11/10 would order again!!!

Yikes. The best part of this restaurant are the swing tables outside, however while we ate our dinner, a drunk man came and sat at our table, bothering us.

Customers can customize their meals by choosing their meat, bread, sauce, toppings, and sides from a custom menu card.

Found this place on google and so glad we decided to stop. We tried a little of everything. Beef brisket, chicken, ribs, sausage, wings, rib candy and baked beans. EVERYTHING was excellent. Leane told us the history of the place including the introduction of the French Fry to the place. If you are near the area- STOP. Meat boss will not disappoint. Closed Sunday and Monday.

Absolutely blown away by this barbecue spot! The ribs were phenomenal—tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The chicken was just as impressive, cooked to perfection with incredible attention to detail. You can tell this is a family-owned restaurant by the warm, welcoming atmosphere and the passion behind every plate. The environment is relaxed and inviting, and the people are simply amazing. I felt right at home from the moment I walked in. I cannot wait to come back—this place is a true gem!

Meat Boss is a excellent bbq place in a state known for killer seafood! You don’t think, “Imma head on down to ‘Bama for some ‘Que!” So I have been bitterly disappointed by some of the bbq places native Alabamans have rated so highly. That’s not the case here. They serve chopped pork, brisket and ribs. The ordering is a bit complicated, but the food is as good a bbq as you’ll find anywhere. We ordered the ‘pulled’ pork and brisket, no bun, although you have several bread choices. You can get a little cup of slaw or potato salad, various very tasty bbq sauces, pickles, sour cream, killer jalapeño jelly, and a few other accoutrements none of which detract or mask the savory Smokey meat flavor. The meat is fatty enough to be really succulent without being oily/greasy. All the ‘Que sauces are delicious, but the Carolina and Spicy Carolina (neither mustard based) were the standouts. A word about their potato salad. If you’re used to restaurant-grade potato salad, and can live without it, wait till you try Meat Boss’ made-in-house version. Potatoes are cooked to perfection, then slathered with a mayo/sour cream dressing that’s both decadent and light, with just enough tang to keep your tastebuds clamoring for more. Reasonable prices, super helpful, friendly, and accommodating staff, this wonderful bbq purveyor is definitely on the “happily returning” list.

We had a party of 8 for the outdoor seating. We paid the extra $5 each to enjoy the live musicians. The music was fantastic! There were 3 dudes playing acoustic and they sounded like Pearl Jam. Why are these guys in a little restaurant and not playing sold out venues? Idk. Anyway! The service was good. Negatives, I apologize for being negative Nancy. For starters, we had to request to get actual silverware that was not plastic. I don't even mean the durable plastic kind, either. It was the REALLY flimsy kind. We ordered the appetizer Peel and eat shrimp which had a terrible consistency. The shrimp was mushy. We didn't know if it was old or overcooked. He ordered the blackened shrimp. Same problem. I ordered the special with a fish upgrade to red snapper(?) With a crabcake and shrimp. This jacked the price quite a bit. It was the same with the shrimp and the fish and everything else was so salty, it made me feel totally sick. I took about 5 bites and couldn't eat any more. Him and I dropped 129 bucks just for us, yet, I couldn't eat it. I felt really bad. I could not even eat the leftovers because, it was just too much salt. We had others who, later on said they had the same problem with it being way too salty- and not eating their leftovers either. The environment was cozy. It doesn't look high dollar, but it was like visiting old friends sort of feel. A little overpriced imo. The gratuity was quietly added because of the size of our party but, that is standard practice in my experience. Just making sure to warn others in larger parties since it was not obvious if you weren't looking for it.

First of all I will just say its a beautiful scenery and the staff was very pleasant. I decided to sit outside at the bar for lunch. It was very busy. My first thought was there is only one bar tender struggling to keep up. He did very u well and was very polite and attentive. I ordered a half n half basket with the fried oysters and fried shrimp with fries. When my food came out I l9oked at the plate and there were 5 fried little pieces of oyster and 4 very small shrimp with a basket of fried. I feel like 16 dollars should have definitely given more food. It was disappointing. The oysters tastes pretty good however the shrimp was overcooked and rubbery. Fries were fine however thats not what I came for.

So know that this review will be coming from a native New Orleanian before reading so that you have some context. Now with that out of the way...GOOD GOD FLAMING OYSTERS!!! They combined the succulent flavor profile of Chargrilled Oysters with the smoky goodness of a good barbecue. In short, the best oysters I've ever tasted! Our server, Hunter, was kind and attentive in spite of dealing with some unexpected restaurant issues that he made sure we as his customers didn't even feel. Next i got the Bluegill platter... with Redfish! My favorite fish fried delicately, seasoned perfectly and presented before me was a true highlight of the meal. If you're in the area, come for the fantastic oysters, shrimp and fish and return for excellent service and an inviting atmosphere. You will not be disappointed.

We visited this place on a Sunday. We had a party of 19 (including kids). We had to wait for about 1.5 hours for a table because they dont take reservations after 2pm. The manager was able to get seated after about an hour. There was a large party that showed up right before us. The food was good. We ordered a variety of things. The service was kind of slow, but the waitress was nice and kept our drinks refilled until our food arrived. We waited for a while to receive the check. This was also their concert season, so the band was playing outside.

Went to the Dumbwaiter with friends for the first time ahead of a show at the Seanger Theater & we were not disappointed! We split a number of appetizers our favorite of which was the Brussel sprouts- holy cow were they delish & it was a HUGE portion size! Would definitely order them again. The Caesar salad was also delish & the pork rinds were good but we wouldn’t order them again as the pimento cheese was served warm which wasn’t very appealing to us. Our waitress wasn’t very friendly to us or the table next to us which put a little bit of a damper on things but, we really enjoyed the meal itself as well as the ambience, it’s a beautiful restaurant in a convenient location!

Overall not a good experience. Our server did not explain the menu or tell us about any specials or off menu items. My partner’s scallops were raw in the middle so we sent them back. They sent back the exact same plate which had clearly been microwaved. The vegetables were completely hammered and the scallops way over seasoned. I had an Old Fashioned which was mixed and garnished poorly. The short ribs were very good however. At these prices I expected an enjoyable evening. What I got was the same as a night out at Chili’s.

Let's start with it was my mother's birthday nothing mentioned even though I asked them to mention it . The atmosphere very was chic..service was fine ..The food was meh 5 out of 10 ..I mean bland!!! no wonder they bring you a salt and pepper shaker to your table. One meal was 3 large scallops 3 pieces of asparagus and a spoon of cauliflower and a slice of grilled orange for $34 come on way overpriced !!! ..Shrimp and grits the easiest of dinners and it was a culinary nightmare! it looked unappealing. The shrimps were awful! over cooked and tasted as if they were pickled . I took most of it home and I never do that .. Yuck!..From ordering our starter to receiving our dinner took way way to long. The only time they were fast is when they gave us our check and cashed us out. I was so so disappointed !!! I could've gone anywhere else and had a better experience for way less money.

It has a kind of a hole in the wall type of feel that makes it standout. The staff was super friendly to boot. It was fairly crowded when we got there but we were seated and had our drinks in no time. We ordered the mozzarella sticks and some fried pickles as starters, the pickles were especially good. I ordered the famous "Butch burger" and it was everything I was hoping for!! You definitely cannot go wrong with it, but come hungry because it's a hefty burger!

As a local that has been coming to Butch Cassidy’s most of my life I can honestly say the service just keeps getting worse. I always try to give it another chance but this was the last until they can get servers and cooks who want to work. We were actually headed to dew drop but saw that Butch Cassidy’s wasn’t packed so we stopped. We waited just on drinks for 30 minutes then were told they were out of glasses so it would be a minute. I finally asked for to go cups just to have a drink, My coke had hair in it and I was disgusted but asked for another drink and stayed. We order then it took an 1.5 hours to receive our food. Just as we were getting up to walk out the waitress said our food was coming out. All our food was cold and my daughter’s fries and chicken were so hard she couldn’t eat them. We weee there a total of 2 hours and 15 minutes. I hate giving bad reviews for mom and pop restaurants but this place needs a serious reboot and get back to the way it was. I’m giving a 3 star because I know it’s potential. But, todays service was definitely a one star.

This says this in there about. Low-key hangout known for its namesake burger, plus nachos & happy-hour specials in a compact space. So I told my wife we are going to try this place. Who doesn't love a great burger. So we both ordered burgers. We told our server no pink in our burgers. Well when we received our food it looked pretty good. I loved the onion rings. I took a bite of my burger and it was really pink. I looked over at my wife's burger and hers looked raw. I asked the server if this was safe to eat. She said oh. She really didn't want me to send it back. There burgers aren't frozen. She was acting strange. She said she wouldn't charge for one of my wife's drink. My wife took one bite of her burger and that was it. She said she couldn't eat it. She felt sick to her stomach for 2 days. The place is really showing its age which is ok. It's been around for a long time. They could clean a little better, but I'm really not going to complain about that. Our server was ok. She seemed to be all over the place like over whelmed.

Great burgers 🍔. Staff was very friendly. Food came out really quick, even the server was surprised at the speed of the order. Everything we ordered came out piping hot and tasty. We ordered the fried green tomatoes and the order was cooked perfectly. I had the Butch burger medium and I got it medium, nice job. Very tasty burger with great fries. The wife ordered the prairie burger and she said the fried tomato on top made the burger really good. Glad we found this place, we will return.

My Aunt had talked up Butch Cassidy's and said they had the best taco salad ever but she only ever ordered that. So for my first time eating here, we decided to try the tues special hamburger steak as a to-go order with a side of fried green tomatoes. The good: The green tomatoes are a little thin but seasoned and tasty. The cornbread is the star. I don't normally eat my whole cornbread but I inhaled this one and wished for more. The not so good: The hamburger steak was dry and not very flavorful, which would've been ok if the gravy made up for it. I can't tell if the gravy was good though, because there wasn't enough there to get a decent taste. The greens were so unbearably salty that I couldn't eat it. I can handle eating food that is a bit too salty but these greens were basically a veggie flavored salt lick. My aunts order looked and tasted the same. It could be that they were having an off night or running out of gravy for the special, but if so, I would've rather been informed about that so I could choose something else. If this is their usual portion of gravy, I will choose somewhere else. I'm fairly sure the greens were a one off or no one would order them. I'm going to give them another try and I'm sure I will be able to ammend my review to a better score.

I got the mushroom and Swiss burger and it was very tasty probably one of the best ones I've ever had. If I'm ever traveling down this way again I'll think of this place as somewhere to definitely go to. Everything was cooked to perfection and served nice and hot. Staff seems to be having fun and very friendly. They sat me in a comfortable booth. Long story short nice place!

European restaurant
Osman's Restaurant is a charming eatery that has been serving delectable European cuisine since 2000. The cozy, old-world setting adds to the dining experience, and it has received numerous accolades for its exceptional food and service. Chef de cuisine Osman Ademovic curates a menu with French, German, and Italian influences, offering dishes like shrimp meuniere, pork schnitzel, and various pasta options. The fusion of these culinary traditions creates an intriguing dining experience.
Amazing experience. My husband and I tried this place for our 2nd wedding anniversary and were so glad we did. There is only 12 tables in this place so you need a reservation. The atmosphere is wonderful. It's quiet and relaxing. The food was delicious. Can't say enough good things about it. I don't order dessert usually, but I did this time. The cream of wheat dessert was so good. It wasn't too sweet and very smooth.

Reservations are highly recommended. Have not eaten at a place like this since I lived in Fort Worth. The chef came out and talked to me and wanted to know exactly how I wanted my lamb chops cooked. Everything was perfect. This is a very special place. I noticed a lot of couples coming here to eat here and make special memories.

I really enjoyed Osman’s. You most likely want to have a reservation, but they were easy to get a hold of to make one during business hours. The Gorgonzola sauce is delicious. The schnitzel is huge! We had the rest for lunch the next day. The lamb chops were also very good. I did not like that to add the Gorgonzola sauce was a full $6 more on the lamb, a little higher compared to similar menu items that have that change ($3-$4 for them). Also when we tried to order an additional item, they informed us the kitchen was closed. I would’ve appreciated a heads up on that. Also we told them we were celebrating a birthday, and they said they would make note of it in the reservation. There was no mention when we got there though. Not a big deal, but after working in fine dining, I find acknowledgment of that will make a big difference. Other than that we enjoyed our time, just some things to note. We will be back!

My husband and I had our anniversary dinner at Osman’s last night and everything was amazing! From the attentive staff and welcoming atmosphere to the delicious food, this will definitely be our top go-to date night spot! We had the gorgonzola shrimp, chicken parm, filet with gorgonzola sauce, and the german chocolate cake. Definitely call beforehand for a reservation, you won’t regret it!

Food was so good! The recommended wine and moscato was excellent. Usually when I go places, the food tastes a little salty, but I loved that the food at osmans still retains the taste of the actual item. Things are not overly sauced or salted and you could still taste the natural sweetness of the fish and the crisp earthiness of the green beans.

This food is spot on! We try to eat here every few months. It's a small house and seats about 50 so reservations are a must at least 1-2 weeks out. Best to call between 3 & 5 before they open to book. Where to start, Owned and operated by a Husband and Wife (they are the Chefs & Bakers). Meals are handmade and cooked to order so get a bottle of wine or one of their many bourbons and an appetizer and enjoy the evening. It's worth the wait. Everything I've had there over the years has been phenomenal. Last meal our family of 4 ordered eggplant parm and shrimp gorgonzola for appeitizer . Then ordered for mains: Wienerschnitzel (portion hangs over all sides of the serving platter see picture) Chicken Parm (2 Breasts), Chicken Gorgonzola and Pasta Dish with shrimp, sausage and a cajun cream sauce. All mains include salad and side of angel hair pasta and green beans with almonds. I sampled everyone's mains and each were delicious. Food comes out almost too hot to eat and is so delicious you almost giggle to yourself as you start eating. For desert we shared cheese cake and tiramisu. I've also had good fish, lamb and filet here. You can't go wrong with anything but take my advice, get the Wienerschnitzel!! My favorite is the Jagger Preparation (mushrooms on top). This entree is so delicious I'm embarrassed to admit that I ordered it for the first 7 times I went here (and again last night). It's just that good. Book a reservation today. Not many authentic places like this left. You will not be disappointed.

Mo' Bay Beignet Co. is a delightful gem in Historic Downtown Mobile, inspired by a cherished family recipe that has been passed down through generations.

We stopped in at Mo’Bay Beignets on a Sunday morning before heading home, and we’re so glad we did! Clare greeted us with the warmest welcome—she’s so sweet and just the cutest! We ordered the iced blonde coffee, the beignet latte, and an order of the 8 mini beignets. Oh my goodness… everything was so delicious! The drinks were perfectly balanced and the beignets were fresh, soft, and full of flavor. You really can’t go wrong here—great location, amazing service, and seriously tasty treats.

Enjoyed our beignets! We came here specifically because of the good reviews. It was a quiet Saturday afternoon. The shop is rustic and cute. Love the old classic Mobile style. We ordered a dozen to go, with a lemonade and a chocolate milk. They were great fresh and hot, lots of powdered sugar. I also enjoyed my lemonade, my daughter liked her milk. I do wish they had some hot non coffee drinks like teas or even hot chocolate. It seems they only have coffee options if you want a hot drink. They have a large sitting area inside and a smaller section outside. The shop is located in a revitalized area of downtown Mobile. My daughter said it reminded her of NOLA, but cleaner. I will be back for beignets.

Adorable little coffee and beignet shop on Dauphin (sp?) Street. We went mid-morning on a Wednesday before touring the battleship. Excellent beignets and very good coffee. I tried the seasonal pumpkin spice cream cheese syrup in Columbian decaf. There's a setup explaining the history of Mardi Gras on that street. Definitely walk around afterwards, several interesting murials painted on buildings and two very nice parks nearby. Nice little side trip. We felt extremely safe walking in the area, and it was exceptionally clean, especially since they'd had a festival the night before!

Barbecue restaurant
Cotton State BBQ, established in 2014 by brothers Ryan & David Tillman, offers a menu featuring classic smoked meats and comfort food sides in a casual setting with exposed brick. While traditional barbecue options like pulled-pork sandwiches with coleslaw are available, the restaurant also presents new twists on familiar flavors. The loaded beef brisket potato is a favorite, featuring thinly-sliced slow-cooked brisket and BBQ sauce on a loaded baked potato.
Respectably good BBQ located in downtown Mobile. We stopped by there before visiting USS Alabama. We've never been to Mobile so we just did a blind search on google map and found this place. We were concerned about parking but we easily found a spot. It was a nice day so we had our food to go and ate at the park next door. I'm not sure about their services but the interior seems pretty nice for a BBQ joint. Everything we had was good. They packed us some coleslaw (not sure if it was their normal thing to do) and it was great.

I’m not sure why this place has such great reviews. We ordered the "special," which was a brisket sandwich with cheese, bacon, and fries, but there was nothing special about it. The brisket was dry and bland, the bacon was overly salty and undercooked, and the overall meal was disappointing. To make things worse, our server seemed more interested in chatting with other customers than checking on us. The prices were also steep for what you get - $20 each for the special felt unreasonable. I wouldn’t recommend dining here.

My coworkers and I were in Mobile for a conference and wanted to experience some Alabama BBQ. It was tasty, and hits the spot when you want BBQ, but it is nothing out of this world. I ordered the pork sandwich with coleslaw and pickles. Never got the pickles, but the sandwich was jam-packed with meat and coleslaw! The seasoned fries were perfectly hot, crispy, and not too oily. Cute restaurant on the inside. Very friendly and attentive staff. I had a problem with my order and they were kind enough to remove it from the bill and offered to remake it

Great bbq in the heart of Mobile! I got the pulled pork sandwich and baked beans and they were both fantastic. They make their own sauce, which I really enjoyed too. My only complaint - weird hours… at least for a bbq place. They only serve breakfast and lunch (close at 2:00). When I asked about the hours, they said they mostly just serve the downtown lunch rush, which makes sense.

I always look at reviews and read good things. BBQ sounded good. Left office, short walk, nice day. Waitress was helpful. Asked for the brisket French fries. Looked good when placed on table. Started to eat and the outside was barely warm. Start going to the center and not even close to hot, and barely warm. Waitress asked how was it and I said good but cold. She did say they could redo the order, but I was more than half done. Disappointed.

Stopped into Cotton State BBQ's new location last week and ordered the dry rub chicken wings. If im speaking honestly, these may be the best dry rub wings in Mobile. Theyre delicious and worth the price! Overall im really digging the new location. Its got a good feel to it. Plenty of seating. Unique art, super clean bathrooms (a huge plus). Kris and Joanna are the two servers you'll most likely deal with. Theyre both at the top of their game. Quick, efficient, accommodating, knowledgeable, and friendly. If youre a regular, they'll remember your name and usual order. A nice personal touch. They'll tend to you immediately and regularly Food did not take long to come out at all. Came out hot and just the way I imagined it. Perfect stop if youve got a short lunch break. 10/10 experience.

Cotton State BBQ was delicious! We experienced the Downtown food truck.The BBQ sauce is an award winning recipe and I will tell you I don't really care for too many bbq sauces but this sauce was bomb! The crinkle fries were seasoned and actually crispy! I get dissapointed with crinkles usually because they aren't crisp enough. My family loved the cheese fries and brisket fries!

Start your day on a delightful note at Dropout Bakery & Co., a charming establishment that has quickly become a local favorite since its inception just two years ago. Founded by Lacey Evans, who pivoted from fashion school to baking during the pandemic, this bakery gained fame through Instagram with her mouthwatering creations. Expect to see eager patrons lining up outside as you sip on coffee and admire the stunning array of pastries displayed in their glass case—each choice is sure to please!
Stopped at Dropout Bakery on our way home from the beach and it was a total win. Immaculate vibes, plenty of outdoor space for the kids to run around, and everything we tried was delicious. There was a short wait, but totally worth it for the quality and flavor. Would absolutely stop again.

Dropout Bakery is the place that makes every other bakery look like they're just doing homework while these peeps are writing a thesis on flavor. Everything they bake is a full grade above the status quo, a solid A+ in deliciousness every time. What really blows me away is that they come out with a new menu every single week. That's not just baking, that's creative research and development. You can literally taste the thought, effort, and technique that goes into every batch. It's like they've got a team of dessert scientists working overtime in there, fueled by butter and cane sugar I've been cutting out sugar lately, trying to make better choices. But Dropout Bakery is the one exception I happily make. Their treats are just too good to pass up, and you can really taste the care and quality in every bite. And let's be honest, creating a business is not easy. Starting something new and having it actually do well is a serious accomplishment. You can tell the owners put love, care, and a bit of magic into everything they do. Dropout Bakery is proof that when passion meets pastry, everybody wins. The ambience has its own style and uniqueness, it feels collegiate, creative, and laid-back all at once. It's the kind of place that makes you want to stay a bit longer, like a family bbq. If you haven't been, go. Just don't blame me when you start planning your week around their new menu drops. P.S. I love this place

The cutest bakery with unique pastry options in Mobile, AL!🍪🥐🧁 My only complaint about Dropout Bakery is that it’s not closer to me! Atmosphere: The interior and exterior have a very clean aesthetic with white being their primary color, but they spice it up with plants, wall art, neon signs, and pops of pink! Service: The ladies that were working there that day packaged all of our goodies up nicely for us and helped us in choosing the best options from what they had left! Menu items: I got the butter croissant and peanut butter banana cookie! Everything was SO, SO GOOD! The cookie is honestly the best one I’ve ever had (and I love a good cookie)! Their menu consists of croissants, pop tarts, moon pies, cookies, and specialty items—cinnamon rolls, brownies, cake, and more!🌙🥧🍰🧁

The pastries are a bit expensive but were delicious & very pretty. Came in shortly after opening and one person was working the register and was moving very slowly so a long line formed quickly. Prices were not made clear either with nothing being marked with cost. I will say it is not very clear on the location either if you are unfamiliar with the area.

This is some of the best BBQ we've ever had! The sauce is flavorful and just a little spicy; the pulled pork is smokey yet moist, and just seasoned enough to bring out the good pork flavor. Best of all, the staff were unbelievably welcoming. We had been driving across country, and waited to eat here because of the great reviews. The staff were friendly and welcoming, easing our hunger stress, and continued to helpfully provide more drinks, napkins, whatever all the way through our meal. This is a modest little BBQ place with honest food and five-star service!

Some of the best BBQ in Mobile! Love their spicy sauce. Almost wish they'd bottle it! Be forewarned - the building/house they're in is kind of run down. That's​ part of the character of this place, though. Great location close to USA, but I wish they'd move a little farther west so I wouldn't have to drive as long to get this awesome food. 😉

I loved the fact that this is real pulled pork, not chopped, not shredded, but pulled. My pulled pork sandwich had big chunks of smokey moist pork on it. I think it lacked just a little in the seasoning department, but overall it was the best pulled pork from a restaurant that I've had in a while. The sauce is ok, but I'm not a fan of chili powder BBQ sauces, so that's probably just me. The customer service was great!

My wife and I decided last minute to get something to eat downtown, and somewhere we haven't eaten in the past. So Heroes it was, and we were so pleased with everything. Christian, our waiter, was very nice, polite and very tentative. For starters, we both got a Caesar Salad which was refreshing. We split the Club sandwich and got the fries and beans as our sides. Sandwich was perfect, fries were hot and nicely cooked, and the beans, tasty. Everything was fresh tasting. They weren't busy probably since it was Labor Day weekend, but that was fine with us. Looking forward to trying their Hillcrest Road location since it is closer.

With the accompaniment of a cold beer, the entire meal met my expectations. Post Script: I was offered and accepted a spoon full of my dining partners' red beans and rice. They were spectacular!

Love Moe's "nachos" fresh made chips and loaded with pulled pork and all the fixin's. It is an appetizer, but it is plenty for a shared meal at lunch. We have not visited for lunch in a long time, we were disappointed to find you order at the counter and self serve drinks, extra sauce, etc. It must be a recent change as we watched several people come in and not know.

Visiting town and stumbled upon Moe’s, and pretty dang happy about it. While the meal was great, the standout was the cornbread! Fantastic piece of cornbread! Nice chill vibe, enjoyable place to spend time!

Ordered at the bar, which is not ideal. All the food was delicious, the chicken, pork, nachos, baked beans, slaw, cornbread, chips. Everything was so tasty, if you pass through Mobile this is your spot.

The Ruby Slipper Cafe is a vibrant and inviting spot known for its delightful omelets, Southern brunch dishes, and refreshing cocktails in a laid-back ambiance. The menu features an array of delectable options such as breakfast sandwiches, tacos, salmon and avocado toast, French toast, buttermilk biscuit sliders, and the unique Grilled Fish St. Peter dish. A must-try is the Eggs Cochon for Benedict enthusiasts.
Excellent service and phenomenal food. We had: -Pig candy bacon bites; think bacon cooked with sugar. Sweet! 🙂 - White chocolate bread pudding pancakes; make sure to get extra white chocolate whiskey sauce 😋 - Sweet heat chicken & French toast bites; Super moist and perfectly cooked fried chicken! 🤯 - Fried green tomatoes; make sure to get extra remoulade 😁 Bring your sweet tooth and enjoy!

Yeah, you can see this as the typical brunch spot—but with great lighting, amazing service, and incredible food! I loved everything about this place, which delayed our road trip to our next destination over the 4th of July weekend. I was excited to try the fried green tomatoes, which were flavorful and had the perfect amount of bacon on top—just tender. Ugh! I also ordered the avocado toast because I was excited about the pickled onions and capers, but it was honestly my least favorite dish and I carried it to the next hotel with me but ultimately didn’t eat it. It wasn’t bad; it just didn’t have as much flavor as I expected. Instead, I leaned into the shrimp omelette, which was packed with flavor from the fresh, succulent shrimp. Loved it! And I had an order of bananas foster French toast and literally licked the plate (I’m kidding). But it was that good. We talked about the French toast for days. I also liked the biscuit with their house made butter. I don’t see myself visiting Mobile again in the near future, but if I ever pass through, this would be a “MUST-STOP-HERE.”

We got the trifecta and it was delicious. Just really well intentioned seasoning and sauce, expertly poached eggs, and a handmade fluffy buttermilk biscuit. Felt like home but with a new twist. Beignets were like pillows. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was bright, cheery, and welcoming. We’re from out of town and while there are clearly a lot of great breakfast/brunch places in Mobile, we picked this place because reviews were good but also because a certain other reviewer said the food was great but gave only two stars because the server was wearing a pride shirt. We visited this place because I believe that hospitality finds its way into the food, and if they’re welcoming to everyone, it’ll show in the quality of the food. That turned out to be true.

Great spot, great atmosphere, solid food, but not great service. If you stay on top of them, you’ll get fed. They mess up orders quite a bit, but the food is a solid 4 out of 5. We had the fried green tomatoes, which were solid, and tried the pig candy bacon bites, which were not great. They were covered in brown sugar but had no bite; typically, you’d add crushed red pepper or cayenne to candied bacon, but this was just thick brown sugar over bacon. We also got the Ruby Fried Chicken Sandwich, which was fine—you need to ask for mayo, as it comes dry. I ordered the Three Little Pigs Omelette and had them add shrimp, but when I asked for breakfast potatoes, they gave me grits. We had to constantly flag down the very not-busy waitress, who was busy not paying attention to customers, for everything: water, coffee, milk for the coffee, refills, mayo, the check, etc. So, if you don’t mind chasing the service like you’re in a Mardi Gras parade for beads, and the waitress getting orders wrong a bit, but want pretty solid food, Ruby Slipper might be for you.

We were visiting this area for the Mushroom Festival and wanted to enjoy a good home cooked breakfast... We Came Upon the Ruby Slipper and hands down, found what we were looking for 🍳🥓☕️ My favorite breakfast item is eggs benedict and I can honestly say the Ruby Slipper has the best tasting benedict thus far!!! We also opted for the pumpkin beignets and ... oh my goodness as if there was a firework explosion in my mouth... we bit into heaven!!!! If I had a shrink gun and could shrink the Ruby Slipper and bring it to my hometown I would do so!!! You will be doing yourself a service by stopping here and enjoying one of their delicious meals!!!

Waitress was great, kept coffee and water as needed. The place is awesome, old bank building. The food was so good. We went for coffee & beignets and drink the night before that we went with family for breakfast. The night visit we didn’t have as great service as we did for breakfast. The beignets were ok, waitress didn’t offer coffee refill but drink was good. The next morning for breakfast was amazing, waitress was on top with refills and the food was served hot and everything was delicious! My bread pudding pancake was amazing!!

Restaurant
Mary's Southern Cooking is a family-owned cafeteria-style eatery in Midtown Mobile, serving up delicious and hearty Southern and soul-food classics. The owner, Mary Smith, has been cooking since she was 7 years old and her fried chicken recipe is a must-try. The restaurant offers outdoor seating and a warm atmosphere reminiscent of home-cooked meals.
This restaurant came highly recommended and rightly so. They specialize in southern cooking, huge portions and friendly service. Service was great but a little overwhelmed but I contributed that to the number of customers. The food tastes great, it has a home cooked flair. My one takeaway is that it is torn between fast food and a sit down restaurant. K

Might have been my first visit, but won’t be my last!! From the friendly greeting as we entered to the ample selection for a meat and three, this was a very pleasant experience. Not only did I not leave hungry, I have enough leftovers for another meal. Do yourself a favor and go get you some!

First time customer. Had heard good things and they weren’t lying! Got the fried chicken plate with black eyed peas, baby limas, and yams. All were on point! Those yams and baby limas were money. This meal with a sweet tea was $25 before tip, but worth it. You better plan for a nap after. I will definitely be back for more.
Randy M — Google review
Well, Mary's food puts me in the mind of Piccadilly. Like it does what it does and nothing too special. The greens had a deep rich green color, but then you look closer and taste you know they are from a can. And honestly the added sugar trying to dress them up makes it worse. If you are cutting corners on vegetables maybe don't cook them. Mac and cheese...nothing special. Fish wasn't straight out the grease. I get you're trying to save time. But I think you lose out in quality. Fish was good luke warm nonetheless. I will say nothing was too salty. I would focus on a smaller menu and fresh fresh fresh vegetables. I must say that cornbread was amazing. The strawberry cake was so so. Staff was friendly. Lots of space to sit. The owner was trying to get the 2 cashiers to say welcome to Mary's. It was like pulling teeth. Only one register was open and 3 people were in the area. They could have taken turns saying it. Don't give people a chance to ruin your business just because they are related to you. Find you some folks that can embrace your vision or do it anyway.

Top tier southern cooking!! Everything was packed with flavor. The blackeyed peas, the greens, and the mac and cheese all were so good and can tell they are homemade recipes. Its like going to your mama house on Sunday. The fried chicken was good and juicy. The chicken was seasoned to the bone! So even if you ate the golden, crunchy skin off; the meat still has that good flavor of herbs and season. The staff was warm and welcoming, and we appreciated their service. Def come visit here when you need that real Soul Food. Just leave yourself time for a nap afterward lol

The only thing I want to say is MARY'S Home Cooking on Airport Blvd. is Absolutely the Best Soul Food Cooking in Mobile. We went there on Sunday and the food was Excellent and the Dressing is the Best 😋😋

The service was excellent! Everybody was so nice! The owner herself came to greet me and my friend. Her interactions were genuine and you can tell she’s a people person. Our waiter was great as well. The food was good. The macaroni and cheese made me roll my eyes to the back of my head! It’s been a while since I had macaroni and cheese that good! I ama vegetarian (for health reasons only) so if you’re getting any of the vegetables, ask if it has meat in it. Some of them do……but that Mac and cheese don’t so make sure you get that! My friend had the baked chicken and she really enjoyed that. I’m not from Mobile and I am here for work, but whenever I come back I will visit this restaurant! I say 10/10 highly recommend!

Pour Baby is a popular bistro in West Mobile, known for its seasonal small plates, craft beers, and an extensive selection of wines by the glass. The restaurant has won several Nappie Awards and offers over 50 wines by the glass and 150 wines by the bottle. It's a great spot for a classy date night with fine wine and gourmet dishes.
Great food and atmosphere. My wife had been telling me about this place for a while. We decided to go and I was pleasantly surprised. The first time we went it was so packed we had to eat in the bar area but I found out why it was packed. The food is delicious. During out most recent visit, my wife had the seared scallops and I had the grass fed ribeye. My wife said her food was delicious and gave it a 9/10 my steak was delicious. My wife even ate some of my potato wedges. Literally everything was good. Our waitress was so attentive and personal, it made it like we were regulars. When you have time, go to this place. Every time we have gone, it has been packed so I recommend making a reservation. If not, you will most likely be eating in the bar area. When you make a reservation, your table will be ready when you arrive and you will have "cold" water already at your table ready for you. Your server will be there ready to offer suggestions and take your order. The food is delicious and the staff is professional and organized. Highly recommend this location.

Went for our anniversary. We got the sliders as appetizers, the 16oz ribeye, the chicken Marsala, and finished off with a caramel cheese cake. The sliders were well seasoned and tasted delicious. The chicken Marsala was good. The ribeye was good but a bit fatty and could have used more seasoning. The cheesecake was the best we’ve ever had!

I couldn’t have asked for a better way to close out my birthday weekend than dining at Pour Baby. The food was absolutely amazing, and the drink and wine selection was equally impressive. Our server, Hannah, was incredibly friendly and did an amazing job keeping up with all of our requests and orders with such ease and professionalism. My friends and I felt so well taken care of—the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our group of seven, making the entire evening truly memorable. Thank you for an amazing experience!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ EPICALLY DESERVED FIVE STARS Pour Baby is hands down one of the most phenomenal dining experiences in Mobile — and honestly, anywhere. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance of stylish and welcoming. The service? Absolutely top-notch — attentive without being overbearing, genuinely kind, and you can feel the passion for what they do in every interaction. The food is on another level. Each dish is crafted with creativity and care — from starters that set the tone, to entrées that truly blow your mind, to desserts that leave you speechless. Every bite was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and honestly unforgettable. Add to that a wine selection and cocktail list that are on point in every sense — curated, thoughtful, and full of incredible options to fit any mood or pairing. And just when you think the experience has peaked, the desserts arrive and take things into the stratosphere. Rich, decadent, perfectly balanced — the kind of sweet ending you wish you could hit “repeat” on. Pour Baby is more than just a restaurant — it’s the full package: amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing people, and an atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer. Mobile is lucky to have it, and it deserves every bit of praise it gets. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

Wow. What incredible food. I went here after failing to get into Texas Roadhouse, and I was not disappointed. Setting was great, the wine was great, the service was great, and the food spectacular! I don't know where they get their ingredients from and what school the chefs went to, but the food had me giggling like a toddler. If there is one spot to try in Mobile, this is it. This is the new standard for excellence. Update 2/1/2023: I went again last night, still fantastic!

Red or White Wine Mobile is a charming wine bar located at 1104 Dauphin St. The establishment offers a selection of over a dozen wines by the glass, complemented by wood-fired pizzas and delectable charcuterie boards. Additionally, patrons can indulge in seasonal specials like chocolate milk cold brew with MoonPie foam at Yellowhammer Coffee or savor fresh-pressed juices and vegan specialties at Ginger & Spice.
My wife and I enjoy going here on a Saturday afternoon, There is a wine tasting menu available for a very reasonable price. We have also had their pizza, handmade and cooked in an open fired oven. I have not eaten off the menu, but from the pizza and cheese plates that I have had, there is a reason the chef has been nominated for a James Beard Award. Very good food, wine and service.

The Red or White Mobile is a good and reasonable wine store, but they are a lot more. There is also a very cool wine bar and a restaurant. The service is excellent, very friendly and attentive.

Great visit the first time around! Awesome customer service and a great selection of wine and other accessories to choose from. Wine served by the glass or bottle (does include cork fee). Pizza was delicious and will return to try another one. Dates wrapped in bacon, stuffed with blueberry goat cheese, topped with valencia almonds was a treat.

We stopped in just to look around and check it out. The smell of pizza and the look of the pizza oven made us stay to get one. I had a beer and my wife had a glass of wine. Everything was excellent. The staff was friendly to us and asked if we needed anything or were looking for anything in particular as soon as we came in. Once we sat at the bar the service was friendly and quick. The pizza was delicious, I'm sorry that I didn't get a picture of it to share. We heard them talking about and setting up for a wine tasting, but we didn't have time to stay for too long. I'd gladly come back here and next time I'll look beforehand to see if they have any tastings or events. Nice space and friendly people.
