First time here...great friendly helpful service! Clean atmosphere. Decent prices. We ordered the tuna melt and Texas cheesesteak sandwiches...both very good! We chose French fries & fried okra as our sides...both excellent. Next time we're gonna get what they're known for... the burgers! We were both very pleased read more

We arrived a few minutes after 11 am and the lunch crowd was starting to arrive. We were seated immediately and our server took our drink order and returned to take our order. We chose to have the vegetable of the day for our side with our burgers and the was the best decision! They were delicious!!! Very well seasoned not greasy, too salty or overcooked, very healthy like. They tasted like heaven! Their burgers are always on spot but today they seemed to be a little salt heavy in the patty. The restaurant is always clean and the noise level is always nice. We will return. read more

We eat here almost every Friday night. The side salad with ranch is the best anywhere! The catfish plate is my favorite. However they have great seafood po boys and hamburgers. And they don't skrimp on the shrimp! Chili is good too. , look for sides like onion rings , okra, turnips, potato salad. Mostly locals here and they get busy! The staff is friendly and prompt. If you like brownies don't pass theirs up. So good. read more

I ordered the 1/2 lb hamburger. . The bun was too small. An inch of the meat hung over the side. It was so weird, I've never seen anything like it. I ate the meat all around the edge until I could get to the bun. Why serve it that way??? Where is the quality control??? Wish I had taken a photo. It was so strange!! it was so disappointing. My husband enjoyed the 1/4 hamburger. His bun fit the meat. The service was good and atmosphere okay. I was just looking for a good burger and didn't find it here. read more

Ambiance is diner like. You get a decent size meat portion. But would prefer a larger scoop of sauces/gravy and vegetables. Staff is real friendly and the food service is pretty quick The GUMBO IS GREAT. A real satisfying cup of goobness. read more

We both had different hamburger meals. The hamburgers on both sandwiches were very well done burnt around edges. We did tell waitress she said they had been telling cooks they are cooking them too long. 35.00 wasted read more

Food was great the service was very good and attentive. We will be back, would recommend to anyone!

We ordered one appetizer, a cup of gumbo, and a soda and the total was $32! Not even an entree and after tip spent $40. The app was Buffalo shrimp and we each ate one - that's all it took to realize they were awful. Very strong shrimp taste, we were afraid they might be bad so we didn't eat any more. The gumbo was just one cup, not a bowl, and it was crazy salty. I think we got charged for a bowl of gumbo, not a cup, but the cashier insisted the bill was right when I pointed it out, so I just paid and left. read more

If your looking for a home town no frills cafe GooRoo's is for you. Don't expect white table cloths and fine china. Do expect local diner, great burgers and sandwiches and seafood and fair prices. First meal we have eaten out for less than $60. Their burgers as everyone else states are the best thing on the menu. Large patty's with any topping you can think of and they even toast their buns. Best side are the onion rings. They are not homemade but still hot and crispy. Shrimp taco's were also very flavorful. They were more like shrimp burrito's for how large they were. Is all the food handmade; No. Is the service great; Yes. Is the ambience great; Yes. Everyone was friendly and very informative about the food and drink refills. read more

This locally owned and operated gem boasts a friendly ambiance with a diner-like feel. While some may label it as a "greasy spoon," I'd argue that this casual, down-home eatery is a testament to the comforts of homemade cooking and the charm of a traditional diner. I've heard great things about this spot and was eager to give it a try for the first time. The interior reflects an unpretentious spirit, with its simple wooden tables, chairs, and booths. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a casual meal with friends or family. At GooRoo's, the menu offers a tempting array of options, ranging from hand-pressed burgers to locally sourced seafood dishes, with each meal cooked fresh to order. Appetizers include wings, Buffalo shrimp, cheese sticks, fried pickles, onion rings, fried mushrooms, smoked tuna dip, hushpuppies and cheese, or fried veggies. Seafood choices include plates or sandwiches with smoked tuna, shrimp, mahi-mahi, fish, and catfish. Other options include a variety of burgers, Philly sandwiches (made with ribeye sliced in-house), hamburger steak, chicken breast or tenders, BLT, and chicken-fried steak. For lighter options, diners can opt for the crisp, daily-cut veggies in the salads or the homemade chili that's as comforting as it gets. I visited with my neighbor after some appointments, and she shared some terrific fresh onion rings and ordered a blackened shrimp salad, which she thoroughly enjoyed. I also ordered an appetizer, sharing the fried mushrooms, which were delicious. Having heard about one sandwich specifically, I ordered the 1/2 lb monster GooRoo burger with everything on it, and it didn't disappoint. The service is attentive and friendly, and a full bar with wine choices is available for those who wish to enjoy a drink with their meal. Parking is ample, and outdoor seating is available for those who prefer to dine al fresco. The restaurant is also kid-friendly, making it a great option for families. Bottom line: GooRoo's offers fresh homemade fare, a welcoming ambiance, and friendly service at moderate prices with a smile. Highly recommended! You can check out their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/gooroosgrill/ for more information. Hours of Operation: Tuesday - Saturday: 11 AM - 8:30 PM Sunday - Monday: Closed read more

Good old fashioned customer service and food. Great place to grab some food and relax.

Oh my gosh, I had the best hamburger and french fries! Everything was so fresh tasting and the hamburger was so juicy! We got seated right away and our server was wonderful. Checked on us several times to make sure everything was OK and she had a great sense of humor as well to put up with the three of us. I highly recommend going there and I will be back. Atmosphere was also wonderful and lots of people enjoying the food as well. read more

Love there cheeseburgers. Haven't had a chance to try the seafood. Great spot to grab some lunch

First time visiting here today and I highly recommend. The service was very good and the food was delicious. I went with the blackened fish tacos with green beans as a side. read more

i came in for a togo order and wasn't acknowledged at all, not even a hello we'll be with you in just a moment just flat out seen and ignored. i work in the service industry so i understand sometimes you get flooded and can't tend to a customer asap but a simple greeting can really go a long way. burger was okay, service needs some work. read more

Been a few times and the consistency has yet to fail us. Great burger, hamburger steak, country fried steak. Very attentive service, reasonably priced and very satisfying. read more

You've got go to this local diner for one of the best burgers ever! We stop when we are near Roberstdale or Gulf Shores and it is really good diner. read more

The food was awesome! The prices were great. Loved the fish and the tartar sauce. Great service as well. Very friendly staff. Great food stop for our vacation. Will definitely come back. read more

There is so much more to this place than meets the eye. It isn't a chain... which considering the lay out, the polished menu and the rate in which they get folks in and fed, is amazing. This place has it going on. Making the place even more impressive, the food is great! I was expecting the norm from the road. These days you get lackluster service and meager tasting food, at best. The ladies seating and serving were wonderful! The food came out correctly and fast. I loved the fish basket. I never had to ask for more tea. They are well worth the drive into Robertsdale! read more

Well, what do you say about GooRoos? Great burgers, great wings and service is not too shabby. Hanging with Alabama Bob and his boy Nelson (how they say it in the south). Right off Hwy. 59 which is the artery to Orange Beach, the red neck riviera. Beautiful beaches and amazing fishing. Support local businesses... read more

Great service, greasy spoon ambiance. GREAT: blackened trigger fish, patty melt, hush puppies, collard greens. Board of health rating 98, but window sills were dusty, dirty, with bugs. Booth vinyl was mended with electrical tape. NOT SO MUCH: Chicken fried steak had been frozen, gravy was flavorless like glue, potato salad was funky tasting, fried okra tasted like it had been frozen. The place was packed for Friday lunch. I guess it depends what you order and what your standard is. read more

Good food. Great service. Very local place. Lots of smiling faces. Philly steak sandwich and tuna dip was great!

Always reliable seafood, service and ambiance. We've enjoyed eating at Kravers since they arrived on the Eastern Shore!

My husband and son had cheeseburgers that were just your run of the mill burger, but I had a chicken wrap with fried zucchini/squash, and it was so good. The place was cute and clean. Our waitress was great and very helpful. read more

Pretty old school- nothing fancy- but the burgers are yummy. The staff knows you if you're a regular, not like the big chains.

With the current environment we decided yesterday that we had to eat out, meaning take out of course. My kids love their fish tacos, and they were super as always (blackened). My wife loves their burger and it was great as always. I have the HUGE hamburger patty with mushroom and onion gravy. Everyone else had fries, while I had onion rings. It was all really, really good. Also had an appetizer of fried pickles which were just right as well. Please remember all of your local establishments right now (I would even include fast food in that.) Goo Roo's is a staple in our community and I know you will love it if you stop by. read more

Visiting from south Foley.....Food excellent- Try the catfish either fried or blackened. Green beans, okra is great. lots of folks were eating the burgers. And country fried steak. Foley needs more places like this. To act like you're a Robertsdale local - you pay at the front counter, and exit the restaurant parking lot by going next door to the shopping center. Service was spot on too. Tea or water glass always full. read more

Food was very good. Lots of reviews complaining of the prices but I'm pretty confused about the issue. The prices were very average. We got the fish tacos with the loaded potato salad and the chicken BLT with onion rings. Very good food and the service was great as well! read more

Great little "hole in the wall" restaurant that serves up a delicious burger. All of the fixins' are fresh and tastey and the staff is hurried but attentive. For a good homemade style burger, this is the place in Robertsdale. read more

Been here twice now. Great food. Great service. Will definitely be returning in the future.

I can't afford their prices. Food is good though. Service is good. Other than being prohibitively expensive they rock.

Delicious, pricey but worth it!. From what I read they started out as a food truck and maybe their prices have increased since then. However, the small town and good vibes have continued. I love a place that cares about their customer and provides a good meal! The service was great, very polite and attentive. They have comfortable indoor and outdoor seating and offer great menu options. Our bill for a family of four was around $60, without a tip. We could have skipped the drinks and that would have made about a $10 difference. But I couldn't pass up their sweet tea. Yum!!! We tried their fried pickles as well, which were a recommendation and they were amazing! The burgers were fantastic as well and overall the experience was very positive! If you are in Robertsdale this is definitely a must try food stop. read more

Fish Tacos are delicious. Fried pickles, hush puppies, fried okra is delish. Country Fried Steak with mushrooms and onion gravy... yum!

Blacken fish tacos were very good. Homemade brownies are great cake style brownie!!!!!!!

Had the country fried steak with fries, cole slaw and brown gravy. It was all delicious. My wife had the Gooroo cheeseburger with fries and jalapeños. She enjoyed it. The bathrooms were well maintained. Will come back again. Give it a try for yourself. read more
