“This year's stay at Perdido Beach Resort was our first stay since change of ownership. The scenery was exquisite as always, and we noticed new additions to family friendly activities ! There's still many renovations in the world , but none that interfered with the atmosphere we enjoy during our stays. Many new faces , most of which had big smiles for all visitors . There were a few faces we missed, both entertainers ,& family members. There were only three of us this year. My mother who's 87yrs old & disabled, my 79yo aunt with late stage Parkinson's ,& myself, also disabled , but thankfully, can still be the designated driver of our little family. Apparently,my spinal & knee disabilities were perceived by 1 waiter as alcohol induced. I had went down to the bar ,with plans of purchasing a bottle of wine & rejoining my family in our room. We were actually in the Coastal Art Museum Hot Shop blown glass class,that morning & visiting family, since this was possibly the last chance we'll ever have to all vacation together. My recent spinal surgery affects my gait & ability to stand up quickly.It can cause me to vear left about 45,°& at times, cause uncontrolled arm tremors.I will be wheelchair bound within the next couple years, so I'm trying to enjoy the little time I can still stand without assistance, no matter how clumsy it may look. Although we had recently returned to the resort ,(after our day out ,with no alcohol,) when I arrived at the piano bar, Oveino, told his supervisor Matthew, I was inebriated , & refused to sell me a bottle of wine for my room. Life, & vacation with loved ones is way too short to argue with rude misinformed people , so I went to the PBResort store, steps away from the piano bar, & bought my bottle of wine to take back to my room. I did bring half a glass of wine from my room , from the night before , so maybe he assumed I'd been drinking before I arrived .But as mentioned,I'm the only designated driver & don't 'day'drink . The next night ,being the last of our short stay this year, I wanted to insure there were no issues ,in having a nice evening with my family . Again, life's too short , so I verified with the reception desk, as well as the store employees, that purchases from the store were fine to eat & drink in the piano bar .This seem to be a problem with the same employee , but I informed him as nicely as possible, that I had already confirmed,our presence & items from the store were perfectly acceptable in the piano bar ,& he could verify my purchases & permission from those employees. Also , I would love the names of the valets who assisted us each day. We did not carry around cash, but had intended to tip each of the wonderful valets ,at the end of our stay. Unfortunately, we only saw one of these galant gentlemen before leaving. I would love to send each of them a gift card with their tips for the week. We would have never made it without them. Thank you so very much. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit ,except for the already mentioned incidents & disregard of my medical condition. But I have always enjoyed my visits at PBR & would love to see the total remodel, if I'm still able to travel .(And hopefully the piano ladies will be on the music lineup,as well. I've always enjoyed their entertainment!)Every person at the reception desk, the PBR store, the cleaning staff , & every one of the valets , along with Jesse ,the guitar man , were phenomenal. They were professional , very kind & friendly,& treated my family with respect ! Next time , I will bring a note from my doctor , & my uncle, who's a Law Enforcement Officer, with his breathalyzer , as proof of my ability to hit the elevator button...LOL. (I was afraid I'd offend Ovenio by pronouncing his name wrong (& have probably spelled it incorrectly in this review), so I told him I'd call him Dr O~ because at the end of the day, my nightcaps, are wh“

“Delicious drinks and food! Offered to accommodate my gluten free allergy. Have THE best Cesar salad dressing! The grilled chicken was perfect and the chicken wings with the Alabama sauce was delish! Perfect view of the bay. Come by boat if you prefer! Bring your pup! Highly recommend.“

“We visit Orange Beach a couple times a year and this is our favorite spot for dinner. The food is great, prices are reasonable and wait staff are friendly and personable. Had the best fish and chips I've eaten anywhere and love the gumbo and fried shrimp“

“The cajun salmon alfredo sooo delicious. Huge portions and great prices. Wonderful atmosphere. The two young ladies that waited on us were very professional. Mark in the kitchen is the best. You won't be disappointed.“

“Shantel my server was awesome and friendly I enjoy her service also the food was great“

“We just left there shortly before closing and the girls working there were fantastic!
They were sweet and phenomenal with my daughters even though it was late in their working day!
Great job Chloe P. and coworker!
Thanks for the great experience ladies.“

“Great vibe, views and live music! No Jägermeister though 😢 😂 All in all we had a great time last night! We will be back!“

“We both had the sliced brisket barbecue sandwich. I had Brunswick stew, she had mac & cheese. It was delicious. Tender brisket with great flavor cooked right out back over wood fire reasonably priced I would recommend it. I’ll be back…“

“Hannah is amazing!! So very sweet, friendly, and attentive even when she’s swamped! Takes great care in making sure our order is complete and correct. Always love walking in and being greeted with a smile“

“Great food. I love this place. Staff is the best. It’s my go to restaurant. Great place for a cup of hot chocolate or if you’re a coffee drinker that too. Still trying different things on the menus and haven’t had anything I did not totally enjoy. When my family and friends come to visit this is where I’ll take them for sure ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“It’s hands down my favorite place to go eat in this area.“

“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.“

“We loved this place! 🩷 our server was wonderful and our food was great. We will make the hour drive just to come back here 🩷“

“Friendly locals place that treats its non locals very well, good atmosphere from the staff who work hard and fast, good breakfast“

“Ever since I discovered this place I’ve been WEEKLY, it’s becoming an unhealthy addiction but I can’t stop🤣. I go to the Pace location and now when I go in the workers recognize me and are SO WONDERFUL (love my girl Madison) Everything is made fresh to order and takes just as good each time. Y’all have a customer for life 🩵“

“Lots of variety on the menu. Food is good and employees helpful and friendly. Nice dine inside experience. Love the frozen custard.“

“Such a great restaurant inside of this wonderful resort! We ate here several times on our stay during the summer. The service was fast, the staff were friendly and the food was always fresh and so delicious with filling portion sizes! My husband tried his 1st ever chicken n waffles here!“

“We live 3 minutes from our nearest Cracker Barrel but choose to drive 35 miles to the I 10 - Pine Forest Road location in Florida. The food is better, meeting our expectations, the people are friendlier, particularly Cleo who always remembers us and is warm, joyful and welcoming. The servers we've had are much better here and our experience with Anna is always great. My wife loves shopping here. This store is just run better, the way one would expect of Cracker Barrel. Steve and Barbara Martin“

“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!“

“Soup and salad bar for lunch was $9.99 today (Wednesday). Quality and freshness were good, lots of new stuff I didn't see on the salad bar six months ago. Broccoli and cheese, loaded baked potato were the soups, and they were both very good. Perfect for when you need a break from excessive indulgence in seafood and BBQ restaurants. Our server was very nice, too.“

“possibly the best meal of our lives! we got the fried calamari as an appetizer, 10/10. for entrees, we got the stuffed grouper and shrimp alfredo, both were absolutely amazing. and kevin was an amazing waiter, he was very attentive, asked us questions about our travel, and was all around amazing! we also tried the cheesecake of the day which was caramel, and it very well was the best ever. 100/10 recommend this place. we will be back the next time we visit!!!“

“Wow! I was experiencing a personal tragedy. The group of people with me needed to eat. Waffle House was the only place I felt like I could stomach anything at that moment. The staff was nice enough not to make a big deal out of my hysteria and was sweet enough to even turn on the jukebox to drown out my upset world from the rest of the customers. It's just the little things that make the difference.“

“Maggie was absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, she was warm, friendly, and so welcoming. She made us feel right at home. We ordered the All-Star Breakfast. Everything came out hot, fresh, and exactly how we wanted it. She kept our drinks filled, checked on us often, and had such a positive attitude the whole time. Great food is always a plus, but great service makes the experience even better. Ms. Maggie truly delivered. If you stop by this location, you'd be lucky to have her taking care of you!“

“We’re from Florida, now living in Alabama. There are no Sonny’s BBQ here and we sure miss them. Last weekend we took an end of summer weekend trip to Pensacola. There was a Sonny’s across from our hotel room. Needless to say that’s where we ate dinner and boy did we enjoy it! The food was hot, fresh and just as delicious as we remembered. Our server was extremely friendly and I wish I could remember her name (this would have been on Sunday night, July 30. We were the party of five, three grandkids, my daughter and me). Well, Sonny’s had a big impact on my granddaughter for sure as you can tell by her picture and what she wrote on her “what I did this summer” page attached hereto. She can’t wait to come back to have the best ribs she ever tasted!“

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

“I like going to this waffle house. I come here because I feel lonely especially since it's me just all by myself without my late husband and my son and daughter-in-law with my grandkids stationed over in virginia. I come to this waffle house because I like the company. The service is good and the food is fantastic. We got some really great workers here. I believe that Kristen, Melissa, Jayne, Stephanie, Whitney, Katrina, Kadaisha, Linda and Holly are just about the sweetest waitresses. We also got some really great cooks like Calvin, Patrick, Jeremiah and Quincy. I also think that William is just about the friendliest manager. I really feel right at home here. Yall keep up the good work!! 😉“

“I love Brandi! So glad that you added her to your crew with Sherri! Such a great team!!!!“

“The Keg Burger, hands down the best burger around..“

“Everything I've ordered from this location has been great.“

“how to absolutely amazing time at the purple parrot. Great music especially Friday night and then we had to leave the next day. Will definitely be back there and everybody was so nice enjoy“

“This was such a fun stop on our boat ride. Anchor down and check out this gem of a place. They’ve got a beach all around for the kids to place in, it is dog friendly, the food is good, and the drinks are amazing. Pirates Cove made the best Bushwacker I’ve ever had. It was strong and delicious. Very cool atmosphere and the staff is great.“

“Best BBQ I have since coming Alabama! Tried a couple other place in town, but they all tasted like leftover food. Blue Line's was fresh and delicious, plus the service was friendly and professional.“

“I have been to many waffle Houses and this one is the best food is perfect everytime the customer service is the best in town I have to mention Terrie is the best and so is Chris they are great. The cooks are friendly and the food they serve is always delicious can't wait to go again soon.“

“Got the Bairdi crab when visiting a few weeks ago! Some of the best crab legs I’ve ever eaten, well worth the money! If you can, give them a try! Next time we are down we will be back!“

“The food was cooked to our specifications. We went there for Father’s Day and was not dissapointed. Our server, Jamie was very professional. She did a great job!“

“IHOP in Sarasota, FL. The food was great and our server Meghan was excellent. She promptly refilled our drinks and checked on us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed.“
