50 Best American Restaurants near Bon Secour

“I tried the Tin Top for the first time today (lunch on a Saturday), I was dining alone, as I really just stopped by to check the place out. We are opening an Airbnb about a half mile for the restaurant and want to be able to recommend it to our guests. Food was pretty good, I had a basic hamburger and slice of key lime pie, I think that their dinners may be more impressive, as it is a popular spot. They have all you can eat on Wednesday, I believe it was mullet and catfish. They had a prime rib special on the board for $34. Overall it was a pleasant experience, however it took the staff 5 minutes to acknowledge I was there, they asked if I would like to be seated at the bar, when I declined the girl gave me a bit of an irritated vibe, she wasn’t rude, but just let her annoyance show a little, i was one person taking a full 4 top table. Once seated, it took my actual server at least 5-6 minutes to get to my table, she was very sweet, and super friendly. She got my order and bring my drink, she did a nice job of keeping my drink glass full, but my meal was delivered (by someone else) with no burger toppings whatsoever, just a burger on a bun with cheese… at $14 a little lettuce, tomato pickle etc is nice. It took her a while to come back and she actually noticed that it was a bare naked burger and fries, offered to run back and get toppings, that took another 5 minutes, bu this time my food was cold. When she stopped back she had my bill, but had not brought my pie (I preordered it with my food). She picked up the bill added the pie and you guessed it, it took her a really long time to come back with the pie, like almost 10 minutes. The pie is just key lime pie, it was not the best I have had and certainly by no means the worst, it doesn’t have any whip cream on it and it is a pretty small slice for $8. After I finished my pie it took a long time again to get my updated bill, and I actually had to grab her and just hand her my cr card to pay so I could leave. It took about 1 hour and 20 minutes to have lunch (1 person) it wasn’t real busy, I would say probably 60% capacity, and it was lunch not dinner, on a Saturday afternoon. I will definitely try this place again, as the food warrants a redo, but if the service is the same, this would not be a repeat for a 3rd visit, it good food, but not good enough to be sooo slow.“

“Food was great, and the bartender, Chris (Kris?) was attentive and friendly. Took dessert to-go and it looks lovely.“

“Three of us went with high expectations Two were well satisfied with Grouper and Lobster meals, I had a rib eye steak that was so tough that I was unable to eat. The manager comped the meal quickly with an apology, Believe this was a rare occasion and appreciate the way it was handled.“

“Such a fun place!!! We’d never been there before and decided to give it a try. Absolutely did not disappoint!! The entertainment was top notch, and the food was just as good!! There was a mishap of a rather disgruntled guest there, and the Manager Brittany came over just to make sure we were all good. She was so nice and hooked us up with fun stuff. 10/10 place!“

“We absolutely LOVE Old Salt Tavern! Food was fantastic, service was super friendly!! Had to wait a little bit for food, however, it was a Friday night and super busy!! They apologized profusely and honestly, it wasn’t a big deal because they had live music that was amazing!! We will be visiting every single vacay to Orange Beach!!“

“We came in today- Sunday- for the first time, and had amazing service from the moment we stepped in the door until we walked out. Breakfast only today, and everything we ordered was delicious and came out exactly as ordered. My kids loved their pancakes and bacon and I had the blue plate special with one of their homemade biscuits. Great food, and top notch service. We will definitely make this place a stop every year when we come to town!“

“Went for happy hour, had the nachos and boudin egg rolls both were delicious. The wild sauce is a bit much, extremely tangy, like it's half or more A1 sauce or something. Loved the bad you had (Tues the 4th of August) they were just the right volume, enjoyable but you can still chat with your friends and talk to the bartender without raising your voice.“

“One of our favorite restaurants when vacation to Gulf Shores! Great food, great service, & off the beaten path so usually not much wait time! Our only complaint is that we didn't eat there more! ❤️“

“This place is wonderful for families! Our four-year-old loves coming here because they let kids draw on the tables while you wait for your food, which is an awesome distraction. Richard is an amazing cook and server, and the whole team has always treated us great during brunch. My wife’s favorite is the red velvet waffle, and you can’t beat the $5 mimosas. If you’re looking for a relaxed brunch spot that’s family-friendly and serves great food, this place definitely delivers!“

“Great coffee, food, and ambiance. I love this place!“

“Wonderful place to eat. Friendly folks and great food.“

“We went for a late breakfast after googling for a breakfast place. I'm so glad we did. Our omelets (western and Philly cheese steak) were delicious and the coffee was heavenly. Definitely stopping there on our way home, because their coffee and banana French toast are calling to me.“

“six stars :highly recommend this restaurant for the locales and winter temporary visitors it's a down home community center for young and old the food is outstanding. with food that will melt in your mouth. the experience is like fun park you must experience it to enjoy it.“

“Great local restaurant locally sourced food. Outdoor seating is nice in the fall when the weather is cooler. A little warm for the summer.“

“I had a great experience at the Culver's in Foley! I wanted their strawberry fields salad for lunch, but when I went to the drive through, a huge power outage in the area temporarily closed the restaurant. The manager came to my car to tell me this; I jokingly said I don't get my favorite salad today, I guess. The manager offered to make the salad without chicken, which was fine with me, and at no charge. This was such a nice gesture and was truly appreciated! I hope Culver's sees my review and appreciates the great customer service by this young man.“

“This is more of a clubhouse than a bar. It's a nice place for the residents of One Club but I wouldn't recommend it as bar for the public to visit. I visited on a Saturday night and they had line dancing lessons. I would think they would have this during the afternoon and not during the night when people just want to drink, listen to good music,and have a good time. The only thing that was great was the service. Cha Cha was one of the best bartenders I've experienced in the area.“

“Great Good, reasonable prices & amazing staff“

“Friends and I went for the Sunday morning brunch. The seating area has a very nice view. The brunch had an omelette made to order area with many add ins. There was a table with eggs, french toast sticks, fruit, bacon and sausage. There was a very nice variety Giant cinnamon rolls were delicious. The wait staff was attentive.“

“Excellent service. Food was great! Highly recommend!“

“Exceptional. Holiday weekend. Positive and great service from the host to the servers to management who you could see was actively involved. As somebody who worked in the restaurant industry it literally makes me happy to see that. The food was ready quick, hot, fresh, and delicious. The space was clean as clean can be. We will always come back here. Kudos to this place because they are doing it right. Rare to get both good service and good food from a restaurant these days, but the folks on this shift nailed it.“

“I highly recommend Kitty's! It is a wonderful home-style restaurant with a welcoming staff and incredible food. Every item on the menu is delicious, and their sides are truly exceptional. 😍“

“Fabulously funny entertainment! Dinner and a show! Great food and hilarious server! thanks Pippy!“

“The food was some of the best we’ve ever had! The vermicelli bowl is so hard to find and it was soooo delish! The staff was so friendly and we will definitely be back!“

“My husband and I ate here for lunch and it was delicious! The service was wonderful, and the prices were great too. My husband loved the crawfish Mac and cheese, and I really enjoyed the spinach dip. Overall a great experience, and we will be adding this to our list of restaurants we will come back to.“

“Huge portions for an affordable price! One of our kids is a super picky eater and LOVED it! We love even more that its family owned and you can tell in the food for sure!“

“Absolutely some of the nicest people I have ever met, and the food is always great. !!!!! The prices can’t be beat“

“Great atmosphere and the food was amazing! I got the stuffed avocado with chicken and it was the most flavorful dish(charred avocado is where it's at) and my favorite dinner option during our Gulf Shores stay. The spicy shrimp appetizer was yummy as well. Highly recommend“

“Super fast and so friendly! This is amazing Greek food. The falafel and chicken pitas were fantastic! This was our first time in Gulf Shores and to have such a wonderful lunch on our last day was superb! Thank you“

“This is one of my favorite spots to eat!!! The food is incredibly fresh and delicious and the vibe is amazing!!! Sitting on the back porch or in the captain’s quarters is so relaxing and a perfect spot to sip on your favorite beverage. I have to give it 10/10 ⭐️ The alligator cheesecake, the tuna nachos, the pizza, stuffed fried mushrooms , the burgers and the steak, I honestly haven’t had anything bad there. The owners Jason and Sarah along with Chef Matt have created an incredible experience with the freshest of foods. The staff is just as passionate and I absolutely recommend this restaurant to everyone!!! Love it!!!“

“Awesome... this is our best place to eat in Orange Beach.

However over the last few months, the service has degraded to the point we had to wait 45 minute for our food the last time we were there and it wasn't crowded.“

“So I read the reviews just now.. í just started working here and find it to be super cool! The staff is great . I read there were unfriendly staff members . Well I can assure you whoever that was is no longer here working . Because everybody seems family like and super friendly and accommodating to all who come to the texaco summit . Great food , very clean and stocked and extremely organized too . So if your experience before was awful. Try again I promise you will see a huge difference. We are here for you guys . And happily so . Thanks for reading

“💯 We usually just get their ice cream, but we stopped here and had their burger and BLT combos before we went to our movie. Our kids said their meal was better than The Hangout and these are the best fries in town! Nice and friendly service too!“

“The food was great my family loved it and the service was excellent. The only problem was the 45 minute wait but it was because it was so packed 10/10 would recommend“

“We are a large family. They sat us quickly and we had a wonderful experience. Carson was our server and he did an excellent job. He was kind to our kids, kept the chips and salsa flowing, was attentive without being too chatty, and was all around a GREAT server. All of us enjoyed our food and the kids portions were larger than expected. We will definitely be back!“

“Hands down, the absolute best ham salad on planet earth. I've had the BBQ ham sandwich and the turkey sandwich also; and both were delicious. I just can't get enough of the ham salad though. Yum.. You need to make this one of your go-to spots for lunch or even bring home a honey baked ham and some rolls for dinner. They have soup recipes too. Go, get some of the yum.“

“Had a really great experience here during my families’ trip to the beach. The service is excellent. Staff were attentive, courteous and quick. I had the Poke Bowl. The tuna was fresh and the portions were big. The patio is lovely and has a great view of the Gulf of Mexico. The funk band playing the night we were there were outstanding. Great spot, will be back next time!“
