“Flobama is a place to make unforgettable memories. Whether you join the well trained staff for a birthday dinner, incredible local musical talents, or a night out on the town…THEY ARE ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PLACES! Flobama is perfect if your looking to eat slow smoke fall off the bone ribs, top quality burgers full of bold flavor/variety, or snacking on perfectly crisp fried pickles. Kids friendly during the appropriate hours of before 8:30. The kids love the Elvis impersonation act they book pretty consistently throughout the year. EAT.LISTEN.ENJOY IS A PERFECT LOGO TO DESCRIBE YOUR EXPERIENCE at FLOBAMA. Give it a try, I can give you a 100% guarantee you’ll be glad you did.“

“First time ever! Went to go to another restaurant but they were closed, so glad they were. Zachary was our waiter, great guy, wonderful service, excellent food, & the bartender was like no other. Best Ribs & Chicken anywhere! Steak with house sauce was excellent! Last but not least the skillet brownie had ice cream & caramel sauce. It was fresh & hot YUMMY. To say the least 5 STARS! We will definitely be back!! Oh by the way Happy Birthday Zachary!“

“We visited here for lunch after a road trip to the Alabama Music Hall of Fame. This is a solid little spot for country cooking.

The sign for the place is a little hard to see and I missed the turn to enter the parking area initially. Made our way back and found a spot, though the lot is a little bit hard to maneuver. We walked inside to a slightly hot, slightly dim interior. It's larger than it looks on the outside. A friendly waitress told us we could sit where we liked, so we took a booth near a window so we could see the menu better.

Their choices were fairly varied for lunch. Lunches come with a meat + 3 veggies and your choice of bread. I ordered the boneless fried chicken breast, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, and at the recommendation of our waitress, the hash brown casserole with a roll as my bread. My mom got the country fried steak with brown gravy, macaroni and cheese, fried okra, cabbage, and a roll. My dad got the same thing except he subbed the cabbage for greens of some sort, though I can't recall if they were turnip or collard greens. He also got the fried cornbread.

Our waitress was very nice and patient with us, even with my dad chatting her up, lol. Our food came out quickly. You pay at the register up front -- we thought the prices were reasonable.

As for the food itself, it was enjoyable! Simple, straightforward, but tasty and comforting. The chicken was breaded expertly and was cooked well. To me, the stand out was the fried okra, which was perfectly crisp. We also enjoyed the macaroni and cheese, greens, and chicken fried steak. My mom said her best thing was the cabbage, which was surprising at first -- but I agree, the cabbage was excellent! The hashbrown casserole and the fried cornbread were the only two letdowns; the casserole needed to be cooked and seasoned a bit more, and the cornbread was likewise a little on the floppy side, instead of having pleasantly crisp edges.

Overall, though, solid country cooking at a reasonable price served quickly by nice people. Give them a go if you're in the area.“

“The food is fresh, authentic, and delicious! You also can’t beat the service or having Jack himself check on you to be sure you are enjoying your meal. Highly recommend!“

“Steak was great! My wife loved the chicken tenders! We will go back!“

“Had such a flavorful and quality tasting seafood boil here yesterday. Everything was just right. Also, thoroughly enjoyed our service and bartender. Shout out to Claire Elise!“

“Best shrimp and grits! Service is always on point!“

“The pie factory in muscle Shoals has the absolute best grilled chicken salad that I've ever eaten“

“Delicious chicken salad on croissant and broccoli salad for lunch today! Can’t wait to get again!“

“Amazing 💜 Tonight 10pm 😉💎“

“We love this restaurant and have quite a few dinners from there. Food is delicious right down to the banana pudding if your lucky enough to catch it before gone. I’m trying their fish this Friday.“

“6 friends in on a Monday afternoon to celebrate a birthday. Our server Tonia was excellent. She made us feel welcome and very comfortable . . . like she would do anything to provide us great service. She took our orders quickly, but not hurried. Our food (drinks, bread, appetizers, and entrees/sides) was brought out in timely intervals. Tonia got all 6 orders exactly correct . . . no mix-ups, no omissions, etc. The food items, (salmon, shrimp, chicken, steak salad, salmon salad) were very good and ample portions.
No negatives here; all positives, especially Tonia, our server!“

“Went back tonight an my food was amazing had ribeye baked potato an salad great job yall“

“Always good, but this morning my husband orders an American wrap with pulled chicken and with mild sauce for me. Came home with wrong order, but Rick's fixed that today. Wonderful food, wonderful staff, so happy to be a loyal customer!!“

“If I can't pull up on a Friday or Saturday night, sit down and get food I'm not eating here PERIOD. You have cost yourselves more money and more customers than you'll ever know. Start opening back up on Friday and Saturday nights and I'll come eat again. Until then I won't be back, you're supposed to be open 24/7 not take call ins on Friday and Saturday nights I'm not calling in that's not Waffle House. I will never call in Waffle House the whole point of you being open when everyone else is closed is so people can still sit down and eat.“

“There is something special about a chocolate chip waffle as a late night snack Quiet atmosphere, takes me back to days of wishing a grandmother was walking in to a little girls cookie wishes. Of course, I never really had a grandmother, but a girl can dream can't she. If I did it would be of this delicacy. Try the chocolate chip waffle if you have not. It's like a home cooked cookie melting in your mouth. Wonderful for the sweet tooth craving.“

“I have ALWAYS loved Logans, tonight I decided to get takeout because I just didn’t feel like sitting in a restaurant to eat. The To-Go person named Devin was amazing, she made sure I got everything I needed in my bag and was very patient with me. Over the phone I didn’t know what I wanted ( because I don’t have a menu right in-front of me) I kept feeling embarrassed! She reassured me that it was okay that I just take all the time I need. Hands down best to go service I have EVER received.“

“Got the chicken plate with fries and slaw, also swamp sauce and honey mustard. It was yummy! Just as good as I remembered. Can’t wait to come back.“

“We love Red Lobster. However, yesterday we got our food & it wasn't the same. We always order the same dishes especially me.
My husband's mashed potatoes & bacon mac & cheese were dry. It even looked dry. My shrimp linguine Alfredo was a bit dry as well. Everything still tastes great so we didn't say anything. The male waiter was great a bit soft spoken (I'm deaf in my left ear) but doing a great job made it up. 😆 I really wanted to try a seafood boil but when advertising, they don't mention how much they are in cost, so I didn't get it.“

“Good food and sweet employees!“

“Yup there was wings for sure“

“So good! Chris made an excellent omelette! Service was great!“

“I just want to take a minute and brag on the young man that was at the window last night, he was so polite and had a smile on his face the whole time, I know the atmosphere and I’m so impressed with him. After everything I said it was yes ma’am or no ma’am. All I have to say is great job young man. I believe his name is Ladrevon. Of course my food was great too! Nobody wants to do compliments anymore just complaints but this young man deserves some recognition!“
