“The Gathering is well known for its Southern hospitality and warm welcomes! I'm very particular about my food and the owners and servers make sure I'm served exactly what I requested. The Burgers and Wings are my favorite. You can enjoy a great meal, entertainment and words of encouragement ?“

“I give this Waffle House 5 stars because you know exactly what a Waffle House is and what to expect. I have dietary restrictions and worry about allergy contamination. The crew listened to my concern took care in preparing me something to eat and mentioned safe serve and Waffle House training. I have friends in food service so hearing their words gave an extra ease to my visit. Thank You!“

“Relaxed atmosphere with spectacular service and great menu options. We had the winter menu which had a variety of proteins. Food was fresh and delicious. They do offer reservations through the website.Vegetarian options: In addition to vegetarian options on the menu, there was a vegetarian special that evening.Parking: If there are no options in the lot, utilize street parking.“

“This place had the best burger I have had in a while. Bay was about to close at 10. We showed up at nine forty five and the burger was A-1 steak sauce... Who gives you a burger that is so hand crafted and put together fifteen minutes before closing.... I actually had to come in and use the restroom. And when I walked in everyone was vacuuming cleaning. It was like I was in 2050 chick fil. I'm not sure about the mobile location. But this one in Foley hands down. It's off the chain!!!“

“First time being there. We heard it was a popular place and sure enough going in at noon was a mistake. Lined up for the buffet. Food was good but wife had a problem with the dumplings being peppered too much. We had to sit with three other people at a table but we are not adverse to meeting those of like mindedness. One of the things you will need to decide on whether it offends you or not is their asking those who are not eating to leave due to limited space. We don't like to be rushed at meal time so we just kept eating until the place started to clear. But be prepared to be asked to leave if finished during rush hour, etc. I guess we will try it again in the future. Not as Southern as we would like it but will do.“

“I had the garbage burger and it was delicious. Of course it's huge, So I brought more than half of it home. My friend had the oyster poboy and it was loaded and they were beautiful. She said it was really good and took home half. I felt like it was up to the fish river Grill reputation.“

“We finally gave them a try. Really good food. The service was a bit slow but we thought it was because they cooked the food fresh and that takes time. We felt it was worth the wait. The price was in line with everyone else. There were 2 of us and it was barely over $40 not including tax. The place is clean as a pin and it was a very nice experience overall.“

“My husband and I are regulars here. We are always greeting with smiles and waves and our drinks are usually brought to us because they remember what we always order. It's so nice to go to a restaurant where you feel like they truly appreciate your business and the food is always consistently GREAT!“

“Absolutely fantastic little place. The best breakfast I have had at a restaurant in Baldwin county and I have tried many. Will 100% be back again. If you have a crazy for home cooked food then you have to try out MJ’s. They were swamped and short staffed, but you would have never known it. Everyone working was pleasant and professional. If I could give them 10 stars I would.“

“It is a hidden gem. Reminded me of my mom’s restaurant back when I was a kid. Very warm and welcoming. Just your typical mom and pop southern restaurant. Great southern food. They have everything smoked chicken too a fried PB&J and everything in between. Will definitely be back when I’m in the Gulf Shore’s area“

“We knew of The Gulf Bowl from a previous visit that we enjoyed, and planned our son's party here in the VIP room. We have done event space parties in the past and they have always felt like a rip-off and somehow more stressful than necessary. Not at The Gulf Bowl! Hands down the most wonderful, all-inclusive service and party experience. Taylor, our host, was so helpful! He stopped by periodically and was easy to find if something came up between check-ins. The space was pre-decorated and looked great! I also brought some extras with me day-of and someone helped with those decorations as well when we arrived. Absolutely loved this experience! Our guests had so much fun and I was credited with throwing a great party! So many thanks to your team for making parties a seamless process. We were able to enjoy the event and not worry about little details. Can't sing your praises enough!“

“Since moving here 4 years ago and living close to the Mag Dive Bar and Grill.The staff (owner and bartenders ) have welcomed me with opened arms as part of their family.The have limited food but good and the atmosphere is a great place to visit. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Hubs is a truck driver and we've eaten at a LOT of waffle houses. This one by far is the best! It's cleaner than most the staff is super friendly and helpful and the food tastes "fresher". Probably because the grill is cleaner. ? But I highly recommend.“

“This place was amazing! The food was great, the service was extremely nice, and the restaurant was well cleaned and decorated. It was also my daughter's birthday and we got free cupcakes. They were hand-made and the icing wasn't too sweet. I really would recommend coming here!“

“They take a normal size steak burger patty and divide it in half. Then they roll them out thin and grill both patties and the edges get a caramelized flavor to them for an excellent taste. And you can ad caramelized onions on top if you choose to. Excellent flavored Steak Burgers. Treat yourself to a truly flavorful Steak Burger“

“Our server was Tracy she is amazing.The chicken dinner was the best I've had ever anywhere. It doesn't even need the gravySad that I could not order a side salad though.I hope they will start serving breakfastVegetarian options: I didn't see very many options for vegetarian“

“This is the best Waffle House I have ever eaten at! The server was kind, courteous, and great at her job-Milisa was her name I do believe. The bacon was cooked perfect-done but still soft. They were very busy. We were seated with very little wait and our food was out in just a few minutes. Thanks for all the hard work-great team work at this waffle house!“

“Everyone was nice from the time we walked into the building until we left. The waitress kept coming back to ask if we needed anything. The food was cooked to perfection. The best country ham I have had from a Waffle House in years. I was offered a take-home box, syrup, and utensil without even asking for it. One of the cleanest Waffle House I have been to in yearsKid-friendliness: They offer you a high chair for your baby and also have kid friendly food on the menuWheelchair accessibility: The way the floor plan is set up a wheelchair would have no problem getting in and sitting at a table or the end of a booth“
