“Tables weren’t clean. Crumbs, sweat rings from previous customers drinks and crumbs in chairs. The discounts and gravy, sausage and pancakes were very good. I like my hash browns crispy and always ask for them that way. They weren’t even close.“

“Stumbled upon this place while visiting Owa. Waitress was very nice and food was excellent! Party of 5 with different orders and everyone said their food was great! Will definitely return!“

“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.“

“I love the price list! Decent food reasonably, and excellent service. Go there as often as I can.“

“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.“

“First time here. Had a great time with friends enjoying some karaoke! Great place to hang out and have a few drinks. Bartender was very rude. Only negative I have to say. Will definitely come again but won’t be ordering from the bar if same guy.“

“Great Good, reasonable prices & amazing staff“

“💯 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 amazing, as we left the restaurant, we couldn"t stop talking about how we would definitely return. The combination of fantastic food, and great service, and inviting atmosphere made it a standout dinning experience.

“We had an outstanding lunch here. Our waitress was wonderful. If ever in the area again will be back.“

“Located inside Perdido Beach Resort. We had a really good time dining here. Very kid friendly menu. We ordered appetizers (Spin Dip and Steak Fries), kids Shrimp Alfredo, shrimp and grits, fish tacos (served with sweet potato tots) and a bacon burger. All of the food was tasty. The service was a little slow, but she was very friendly. Prices weren’t too bad either. Even with bar drinks a party of 4 ate for $150.“

“Happened to be in the area for anniversary getaway, booked a last minute reservation, no expectations and left feeling like royalty. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like the evening was crafted just for us. It started with a champagne toast that set the tone for what would become one of the most memorable meals of our lives.

The Beef Tartare and Tuna Sashimi were flawless, fresh, flavorful, and plated like art. Then came the Porter House Steak, cooked medium rare with absolute precision. Oh, the sides. The Pork Belly Sweet Corn was decadent, and the Blue Mac and Cheese? We’re not exaggerating when we say it was the best mac and cheese we’ve ever had, and we’ve eaten our way across continents. If they ever start shipping it, we’ll be first in line.

Dessert was a showstopper: the Thirteen Layers Chocolate Cake was rich and indulgent, and the complimentary chocolate-covered strawberries to celebrate our anniversary were the sweetest touch, literally and emotionally.

Voyagers isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a memory, a feeling, a place we’ll always hold close. Chef Brody Olive and the team have created something truly special. We’re already dreaming of our return or at least a care package of that mac and cheese 🧀💙“

“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“

“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.“

“Great food and a great staff they gave my father who is a veteran a discount on our bill today. Thank you so much. Ps my dad is 81 years old and hard for him to get around.“

“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

“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.“

“Great food! Isis was a great waitress! Loved the insults!“

“My daughter and I were there with her 10yr old golden. Of course we asked for outside seating, and were told an hour wait. Hostess did not get my phone # correct so when I didn’t get the welcome text I went back in. Another hostess changed it and neither one apologized for their mistake. Never broke a smile. Sooo we wait, and wait. Watched so many be brought in who clearly had not been there longer than us, empty outside tables with no one sitting there. I went back to the hostess stand to see how much longer, “it could be 3min or 15”, really. We finally got a table after an hour and 35min. We were put at the table next to the steps coming out on the patio, while there were two more tables open on the outside corner of the patio. Out of the line of traffic. Our golden was almost stepped on several times (one being the rude hostess) and the constant jarring of the ppl coming up and down the steps was very annoying. Imagine trying to enjoy a meal that you have waited two hours for and your table bouncing around. Our waitress was great and the food was excellent! Hostesses need to learn some manners as to how to be polite.“

“Great waitresses! Great service!“

“My husband loves liver and onions. That’s a dish I don’t cook at home. We’ve been here for 15 years now and on a regular basis we go to Kitty’s Kafe’ for liver and onions. He particularly likes the green beans. We love the people and the atmosphere. One day I’ll take photos of our cat to add to their collection.“

“I dropped in one morning just to check the place out! Breakfast is my favorite meal for dining out. It was an outstanding experience. Fresh food, properly prepared and served quickly. I had the scrambled eggs with jalapeños. Both the coffee and salsa were good too! I'll be back!“

“They have a GREAT happy hour! The server was superrr nice but I think he was new so he didn't know a ton of info but the deals were fantastic. The oysters were $1, the shrimp scampi pasta was only $12 and so good. The view was beautiful and peaceful. Would definitely come back if in town!“

“Thank you guys so much for the fabulous experience! I was a little skeptical at first, but the experience from the hostess to our waitress was great! I had the crab and shrimp combo. The flavor was awesome! The dipping butter kind of took away from the fabulous flavor. I'm a steamer fan from now on!“

“Madelia was attentive and efficient, but accused me of not ordering the shrimp I had asked for (instead of saying, “Oh, I didn’t hear you” or “I’m sorry, I must’ve misunderstood”). Then, after she had left the check, we used the QR pay-by-phone option posted at our table. When we got up and left she chased us out of the store saying we hadn’t paid. I told her we had and walked back into the store so she could confirm.

The food was good. The atmosphere was good. And, except for making us feel like liars and criminals, I’m confident our server is competent and capable. I just wish our interaction hadn’t left a bad taste in our mouths….“

“No Ms. Toni, will not go! Her AND Ms . Melodi leaving at the same time, had to leave for a reason. That's not a coincidence. They are the hardest workers in the industry I know. I went for them. I never cared for the food. All the good reviews have Ms Toni mentioned in it!“

“We had the most upbeat waitress this morning. Very much appreciated her attitude 👍🏻“

“When in Gulf Shores we always make a couple trips to Lulu’s. I have a gluten allergy and they are always very good to me and the food is always good. I never have to worry about getting sick. I love the staff they are always very nice and accommodating and never make me feel different just supported. We have never had a bad experience and I look forward to it every trip. Thank you Lulu’s for always being so good to me.“

“Was told they had the best burger in Baldwin County. Being from the Midwest, I know a good burger when I eat one. This was one of them. O. M. G. Simply amazing. Yes, the place is a hole in the wall. Yes, they allow smoking. Who cares when the food is this good?! Don’t sleep on the Philly either. It was pretty good as well. Cindy was so kind and friendly. Enjoyed talking with her. We will be back on our next trip down.“

“Absolutely delicious sandwiches as usual“

“We stopped by on Monday around 5pm and enjoyed the laid-back ambiance with hardly any crowd. The dishes we chose were tasty, and Patrick, our server, was super friendly and responsive to our requests. My husband's ribs and my quesadilla, accompanied by loaded waffle fries, were all delicious! My only issue was the restaurant was freezing.“

“Shout out to Autumn, Bryce and Kai. Just finished a hard day at work, I missed lunch, needed some comfort food and all three ended up being the bright spot in my day. I got my bacon sandwich and some scambled eggs to take home and unwind from a challenging day at my job as a maintenance man during the busy peak season on Orange Beach (insert long sigh here). I thank them more than you know. Good conversation as I waited even as they were attentive to the other customers they served along with their other job duties. I notice those things. I hope this review comes to the attention of management as an example that will keep me coming to support this national food chain.“

“Stopped in for a beer and a burger. Wound up listens to the awesome band after the football game.“

“The food was really good here. My husband had the supreme omelette and I had the biscuits and gravy and both were great. It wasn't very busy so everything came out in a good time.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free friendly“

“Great place for the food and view. Be sure and ask for Abi to serve you. She's the Best!!!“

“Great food and Great staff as always😎 It was just another awesome trip to the Robertsdale Waffle House.“

“Absolutely amazing experience — and they truly treat veterans with respect!
As a veteran who has lived all over the country, I can confidently say this was one of the best places we’ve come across for a birthday party. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations.

We worked with Megan, the event coordinator, who was fantastic. She even called the day before the party to confirm all the final details and answer any questions we had. Her professionalism and attention to detail really stood out.

The facility was clean, safe, and well-organized. The pizza was delicious — much better than what we’ve had at similar places in other cities (looking at you, Pensacola!). The kids had an absolute blast with bowling, laser tag, and they finished the day enjoying the arcade games. And we weren’t rushed!

A big shout-out to our party host, Joseph, who was friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful throughout the event.

Everything about this place hit top marks. Highly recommend — especially for military families looking for a fun, stress-free celebration spot“

“My husband and I with a whole bunch of friends ate there while we were staying at the Wharf. Absolute great food, and their staff were amazing!! Definitely will be back!!!!“
