Dauphin’s Casual Fine-Dining

In town for work and decided to check out the best restaurant view in Alabama. The food didn’t disappoint — I had a Wedge Salad as a starter then had the Rasta Pasta as my main. Plenty of shrimp in the dish and packed with flavor. Will be back in the future with my wife.

Awesome experience and view .You're on the 34th floor overlooking Mobile downtown , service, and the food is absolutely amazing 👏

My favorite place for cocktails.

Great Grub. One of the best steaks I have ever eaten. Was there with a group. We had several appetizers, spinach dip, crab claws, fried green tomatoes with shrimp on top, and the cheese plate. Then had a ceaser salad. Then for the entree had the prime ribeye with garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus. For dessert I had a couple bites of the cream brulee with priesters pecan twill. Then they brought out the smoking bon bons as a thank you. Everything was incredible. And the 34th floor view of Mobile was amazing. And Linda took great care of us...she was super nice and have top notch service.

Wonderful Father’s Day Brunch with Rawleen Knowles, Jazz music and great food!

Overall, it's pretty nice. We had to ask for the bread, but that was all we had to ask for. The server only came around a few times, but she was very nice when she did. Delta cakes were the best menu item that we had. The bread was probably the best thing we ate. We also really enjoyed our drinks; I had the thyme out, and my fiance had a beer.

Drinks and dinner were delicious. Enjoyed the fried green tomato appetizer (Bama Gump); the Caesar salad was run of the mill, nothing wrong, nothing special. But, not too high priced so no complaints. The Shrimp and Grits dinner offered eight large shrimp and a hearty portion of flavorful grits. The filet mignon was cooked well and served with potatoes and some asparagus. I had a chance to sample both thanks to my dinner companions, since my swordfish pilar, while the most delicious thing on the table, was a small portion (4-6oz) and offered with no sides to accompany. If I’d known I’d have added a side dish, but that wasn’t very obvious when ordering. Our server, Lo, was delightful. Great attitude and sense of humor. Water was never empty, and food and wine delivered quickly. She is a true professional, quick, and a great asset to the staff. Also, a shoutout deserved by the bar server, JT(?), who was very perky, and the bartender was incredibly swift for happy hour on a Friday.

All in all, a great meal just missing a side dish on the fresh catch meal offering.

(We had a 7:00 dinner res for 3 people; arrived at 5:45 for happy hour and were seated early upon request.)

Parking: Parking garage took a moment to find, but was well marked. Bring a compact car, it’s snug!

The ambiance made the experience lovely, and the food was flavorful. Prices were slightly high for the portion sizes, though.

Usually, the experience is great, but tonight was much worse. We had reservations for 7:15 PM, but were not seated until 7:55 PM. We had to ask for bread and appetizers, and we didn’t receive water until 8:25 PM. We finally placed our drink orders at 8:45 PM, and received only one refill throughout the evening. The service was slow, and we didn’t finish everything until 9:45 PM. There were no bon bons at all. We had to ask multiple times to place food orders and request more bread, but never received it. We also had to ask for dessert.

To make matters worse, when the water was poured, it splattered all over my daughter. The food, however, was delicious. The only person doing a great job was the chef.

Upon arrival at 6:50 PM, we were told that they were setting up our table, and then informed 15 minutes later that we had to wait for someone to leave. At 7:45 PM, we were told it would only be a few more minutes. They offered drinks from the bar, and some in our party ordered drinks.

While we enjoyed being together, this experience was far from ideal. What started as a small inconvenience ended up being a series of service issues that left us frustrated.

Atmosphere makes this spot worth it. Amazing views.

Food isn’t the best, but isn’t terrible either.
