“This cafe is an EXPERIENCE from the moment you walk in the door. From expertly placed and SUPER cute decor, above and beyond employees (and owner) that are SO incredibly friendly and helpful, to a phenomenal menu- you HAVE to add this to your list of places to try. You can tell they put their heart and soul into everything they make and you will genuinely enjoy EVERY bite and sip. My biggest problem with most local cafes is that the coffee is weak and just doesn't taste great. This is NOT an issue at Coastal Cowgirl. As someone who's an avid starbucks and 7brew lover, Coastal's coffee genuinely holds a match to both. The sweet cream cold foam is absolutely delicious. It is such a welcoming and relaxing place to hang out for a bit and take a break from the stress of today's world. Not to mention the pet friendly patio and pup cups- YES please! Easily my new favorite eatery! 🩷”

“I'm here just to say how great the staff is at this location. I've never seen a staff this friendly and helpful at any other fast food establishment. You don't get service that good for a hundred bucks at Red Lobster. These people actually act like they're not dead inside. 10/10 from me mate.”

Loco Lupes 2370 Jack Warner Parkway Suite 101, Tuscaloosa Mexican • $

“As I was looking for an authentic Mexican place, I came upon Loco Lupes. I wanted queso and on the DoorDash website, this was the only place other than Socal, Chiptotle, and Central Mesa. Although those places are great, I do not like their queso very much. I have never heard of Loco Lupes but decided to give it a go. Thank goodness I did because that was one of the best quesos that I have ever had. I also got a cheese quesadilla and salsa. Both were great and I will for sure order this again. 10/10!”

Logan's Roadhouse 1511 Skyland E Boulevard, Tuscaloosa American • $

“Grade A Experience with Good Food!
Overall, I had a really good experience at Logan’s Roadhouse. The customer service was definitely Grade A — friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout my visit.
For my meal, I ordered the salmon and shrimp over a baked potato, broccoli, and a yam, along with a strawberry lemonade. The salmon and shrimp were good, and I enjoyed the potato and broccoli. Unfortunately, my yam was burnt, so I would give the food overall a B.
The strawberry lemonade was really good and definitely hit the spot! 🍓🍋
Even with the issue with the yam, I still enjoyed my visit. The great customer service helped make it a positive experience, and I would definitely give Logan’s Roadhouse another visit!”

“Santos Street Food is fantastic! It’s exactly what Tuscaloosa was missing! Authentic Mexican street tacos, fabulous homemade guac and a great bar. It’s located near lots of Bama sports complexes so it’s an easy, casual in-and-out venue between sporting events. There is in and outside seating so it seems like they can handle big crowds. The owner developed the menu himself and has a ton of enthusiasm for the quality of the food as well as the atmosphere. We will become regulars ASAP!!!”

Hoolies Grill 1351 McFarland Boulevard Northeast Suite 112, Tuscaloosa Mediterranean • $

“I went to Hoolies Grill tonight, August 26th, around 8 PM and I just have to say please support this business! I’m a faithful customer, and going to Hoolies is honestly a treat for me because the food is THAT delicious. The amazing customer service from the cashier and cooks is another big reason I keep coming back.

As soon as I walked in, the cashier and the two cooks were instantly so welcoming and kind. The customer service was honestly phenomenal.

I ordered the hummus dip, cheese sticks, bacon cheeseburger, okra, and the Swiss mushroom chicken sandwich. Everything was fresh and delicious. I also made some changes to my sandwich, and they got every single thing correct.

The restaurant was also clean and spacious, and they had everything you could need, from all the condiments to napkins and everything in between. It was just an overall really nice experience.

What really stuck out to me was how kind and welcoming the cashier and two cooks were. You don’t always get that kind of genuine customer service, and it really makes a difference.

Please support this business! The food is delicious, going there is always a treat for me, and the amazing cashier and cooks are a huge part of what keeps me coming back. I’ll definitely be back again! ❤”
