20 Best Southern Restaurants in Mobile

“This place is phenomenal! I am a chef and restaurant owner myself and I was blown away. The simplicity and freshness of the dishes is commendable. Treating fresh local ingredients so well and not over complicating the plate is a rare thing. Most chefs try to show you how "cheffy" they are. Get the Carolina Gold Rice with the Blue Crab. It's the perfect dish. Fresh Crab, the rice is perfection and would make southern food enthusiasts like Sean Brock ask for seconds. We'll done!“

“1st time eating here, GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE, CLEAN, RESPECTFUL good prices. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED“

“One of the best meals and dining experience I have had in a long time. Everything was terrific! I highly recommend the baked oyster appetizer and the delmonico ribeye! The staff was great, and the atmosphere was terrific! I cannot wait to return!“

“The food is very exceptional if you like chicken salad. Very clean, pleasant employees, food is awesome!

Parking: The parking was a little congested. The food is so good the drive-through is backed out on the streets!

Wheelchair accessibility: The wheelchair accessibility is great for the ones who need it. Space for wheelchairs in the eating area and the doors are wide enough for them to fit!“

“Great place lots of history to it was well. Real old school“

“I love Judy's and so do my friends. Food is delicious and the operation runs like a well oiled machine.“

“We stopped there today to try out the food - they might get tired of seeing us! We were so impressed with their biscuits, they are made with real butter and are SO good. For a great start to your day, brunch with friends, or a first date, this place is the bomb!“

“I brought my husband here for Father’s Day breakfast. We will be back! Great food and great people.“

“Food was delicious and priced reasonably. Had the rib tips plate. Yummy. The bbq sauce one of a kind, but oh so good.
So why the 4 star overall score? Service was awful. Misty was short, inattentive, acted like I was an inconvenience to her. Never offered a refill on my soda, but was in a hurry to offer a to go box. Yeah Misty I got the hint you wanted me to leave.“

“Great place for all seafood dishes“

“Ate here today with my wife and baby and man was it delicious. The wings were so good and so were the loaded fries. The atmosphere was good, good music, friendly staff.. We will definitely be back.“

“Dinner last night with friends was delicious. Our service was excellent from our pre drinks at the bar, then to our table with Lois! Crab claws, stuffed peppers, veal, duck, scallops, fish and steak filled our table and our bellies. We also tried four different desserts. All was a 10/10. We love coming to Grace for great service, atmosphere, and delicious food. We will be back again soon! Thank you“

“Had lunch at Mama’s today! Very good 😊“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fresh, Flavorful & Delivered to Perfection

Y’all, I’ve ordered from Chicken Salad Chick in Mobile at least 3 or 4 times now, and I swear each time feels like the first bite of something so good it should be illegal. In a sea of heavy, greasy delivery options, this place is a breath of fresh (and healthy) air.

The food is next-level fresh—like it was made moments before it showed up at my door. The chicken salad? Flavor-packed. The croissants? Buttery perfection. The sides? Legit craveable. And the best part? It somehow makes you feel like you just ate a homemade meal without lifting a finger.

Whether it’s a light lunch or a full-on feast, it hits every single time. I’m literally tempted to order again while I’m writing this review. If you’re in Mobile and haven’t tried it yet, trust me—this is your sign.

Delicious. Dependable. Delivered. What more could you want?“

“Very large selection of food, big salad bar- dressings weren't marked so you have to guess, lots of protien selections, taco bar, and so many desserts including a buold your own sundae with soft serve ice cream. Our servers were friendly, but a couple behind the counter weren't helpful at all, ran out of spoons and didn't bother to get us more, or seem to care. Was pretty chilly inside, they have booths as well as table & chairs“

“Went for breakfast 9/11/25 & am on keto diet. Ordered breakfast steak with eggs & substituted turnip green for grits & it was so delicious! The steak was huge so I got to take the leftovers & enjoyed half of the steak the next day! Our waitress was very nice & also the cashiers! Highly recommend the breakfast steak!“

“Ordered curbside on App Wednesday afternoon and pre-paid. When driving into Cracker Barrel parking lot received a call from Cracker Barrel stating they had run out of my order!!! Needless to say I was not very happy!!!“

“Our family stopped by JJ’s for lunch when we came in town and it was delicious. We ordered po-boy, fried shrimp & fish dinner and all you can eat chicken. Everyone cleaned their plate! We will be back again.“

“We have enjoyed all our meals at Soul Heaven, since they opened up their brick & mortar location! The portions are generous & food is always hot. Fried fish has been my favorite so far. Different flavored Teas and lemonades are so nice for the hot months. The staff is sweet, service is fairly quick, and great price for how much you walk away with. I would recommend to anyone in the area“

“I recently hosted a baby shower at B&S Mobile and I was blown away by the accommodations, the staff, the food, everything! I worked with Kaitlin and she did a fantastic job. She handled our catering order and constantly checked in on us throughout the event- we never wanted for anything! And the food… so good!! I could’ve eaten a whole plate of the hash browns alone, but it was all fantastic. 10/10, highly recommend!“
