Gulf Shores, AL

Yelpers say:

Very nice people. The single bathroom was very nice as well - well appointed, clean, and cute. I opted for the breakfast burritos. Lots of reviewers recommended those, so I went with it. They were made to order. The description states omelet style, and they were sooo fluffy and soft just like I like my eggs. I added bacon. I got three because I thought they would be small, but they were very well portioned. I could have gotten one, but I was hitting the road, so I plan to eat them on the way. They felt so clean and healthy. A great option to avoid fast food. This was homemade. I also got two egg bites. Came out to about $27, which I thought was good considering it was all homemade, fresh, and made to order. Highly recommended! Ample parking in the parking lot.

Yelpers say:

I had the Bulgogi Burger and it was amazing. Juicy and a perfect combination of flavors that you wouldn't think of making a burger with. Had Mac & Cheese on the side that was a delicious side. Atmosphere is pleasant with a friendly and hard working staff. If you're not in the middle of your day, they also have beer!

Stumbled up on this place. Ordered drinks at Southbar and food from the Kitchen. Best Red Fish dish ever and I have ate it in a lot of places. Bar open until midnight but must order food before 9 PM in the bar! We set on the outside covered patio. What a great friendly and local place!!!

Gulf Shores, AL

What they're known for:

Yelpers say:

As Mahatma Gandhi once said, "If you're going to do it, do it big", The Sloop, not only do The Beach Boys sing about it, and the Ugandans use the word to attract chicks. So what could go, the answer NAFT (not a thing). What a great place, The Sloop can knock out cool food like Mike Tyson did to Holyfield. Just great cheese steaks, awesome drinks, and great atmosphere. So why are all these people here, apparently they know the secret. And, there not tourists, which is a good thing, one more story about cheese curds, and blatz beer is causing irreparable damage. Go here, it's awesome.

Yelpers say:

Blew us away! We stopped in Montgomery to break up the drive to Florida and stumbled across this gem the next day before finishing the drive. Quaint cafe that sent us into a relaxed state. Loved the decor and wait staff were great! It is a little slower paced, but that is the best part of the experience. You may need a reservation if you hit a peak time. We had pineapple juice which was delicious and fresh. I have to mention the coffee, just perfect, thick and not bitter at all. We capped it with a couple criollos, omelette, and a crazy eggs. Be sure to add the homemade hot sauce! Loved it!

Birmingham, AL

What they're known for:

Yelpers say:

I was diagnosed with Celiac disease almost 9 years ago, so I have been 100% gluten free since then. Within the past few years, I started trying out restaurants who had safe cross-contamination practices. I first ate at Yo Mama's 2 days ago. I ordered the chicken and waffles with fries. The food was so good, and the texture of the waffle was so light and fluffy, that I was afraid they accidentally gave me a regular version of the dish! If you are gluten free, you know the weird texture and small portion size are the tell tale signs something is gluten free. At Yo Mama's, that is not the case. After I didn't get even slightly sick, I knew I had to come back. I reordered the chicken and waffles with fries, but I also ordered deep fried gluten free Oreos. I have not had good American food since before my diagnosis! I honestly was almost tearing up while eating. Everyone is so kind and helpful, and the food is phenomenal. I am only in town for work and am very sad to go specifically because I can't find food like this back home. You will not regret eating here!

Mobile, AL

Yelpers say:

Went by there yesterday and tried their Triple D burger that was featured on Food Network. It is a big burger with their rib candy on it plus you can get it in a combo with one of their sides and a drink. That was a lot of food so I shared it with my husband. It'd been a while since I'd stopped by and I appreciated how patient the person was who took my order and helped me with their order process. It's so clean and bright and the people who work there are so nice!

Yelpers say:

Great food. Great service. Modern, open air appeal. The kind of place that makes you feel smarter just by walking in. Guys, wear some slacks .... Maybe a dinner jacket. Ditch the tie though. It ain't church. Go have a glass of wine and a charcuterie board. It's kind of intimate... Great spot for a deserving date. Good chance you'll get laid if you bring your special someone here. This place doesn't have valet parking but it should. If you are scared of complicated meals, the fried chicken can't miss. Finish with a slice of pie and red wine.
