We were at The Wharf in Orange Beach doing some shopping and hunting for a solid lunch spot that…read morewasn't a typical tourist-trap beach restaurant. We stumbled upon Bird Dog Chicken and it turned out to be a great find. The restaurant is locally owned, with friendly staff and a steady stream of locals coming in for both dine-in and takeout. We ordered three of the Four Piece Chicken Tender boxes. Two were rolled in their Louisiana Hot and one in the classic Hot Buffalo sauce. The traditional Buffalo was the clear winner for us -- the Louisiana Hot had a bit too much of the 'Louisiana' seasoning for our taste. That said, both sauces were excellent: hot enough to satisfy without being painful, and packed with great flavor. Included Ranch sauce was great too. The chicken tenders themselves were nicely sized (noticeably bigger than Raising Cane's) and came with a generous portion of lightly seasoned fries. Everything was fresh and crispy. Location-wise, it's super convenient -- easy to hop back on the road or head straight to the beach afterward. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Orange Beach! Highly recommend.

We love the service and of course the food is so awesome. The friendly weight staff comes around throughout your entire dining experience and provides so many awesome sides in addition to your dinner selections. The staff comes around and brings fried okra, smothered potatoes, and various other delicious southern side dishes. The food is so delicious and definitely remind you of HOME and the variety of menu items are perfect and so so so yummy. The 32 ounce mugs with your drink of choice is hilariously, huge and so generous... we also learned on this trip that you could purchase one of those jugs to go. The ambience is cool. It kinda reminds you of an old country restaurant with wooden benches and historical items, pictures, and memorabilia all throughout the entire restaurant. The biggest part and honestly a fun part for families is this is also the place that's coined "Throw em rolls" where they throw huge hat and fresh dinner rolls to your table so at any time you can see flying rolls throughout the dining room rooms. It's so much fun. I would definitely add this to your list if you are in the area to check out. The food, the service is really great and just a very simple, casual dining experience.

Lambert's is definitely an experience! I'll admit, when I first heard they literally throw the…read morerolls across the restaurant, I thought it sounded a little strange, but once you're there, it's actually really fun. The rolls come out fresh and hot, and they're really good! They also come around throughout the meal with different "pass-arounds" that they serve right at your table. I tried the fried okra and really enjoyed it. There were several other options being passed around as well, so you definitely won't leave hungry. For my meal, I had the chicken wings and was very pleased. Other family members tried the country-fried steak and shrimp, and everyone seemed happy with their food. The portions are generous, and even the drink cups are GINORMOUS! Service was good and timely, especially considering how busy and lively the restaurant was. It's very family and kid friendly, and you can tell Lambert's has been around for a long time and has become an experience in itself. My biggest recommendation: make a reservation, especially if you're coming with a large group. Without one, you could easily be looking at a 45-minute wait or longer. Overall, I'm glad I finally had the opportunity to experience Lambert's. Good food, good service, a fun atmosphere, and catching a hot roll flying across the restaurant makes for a pretty memorable meal! Definitely worth experiencing at least once.

She was patient as we were undecided on what we wanted and she helped us decide. The lobby was clean and initially was not crowded but that changed the longer we dined.

The food took a while to come out but when it came it was piping hot with all the great flavors enjoyed at Popeyes. The best experience I have had in years at this franchised restaurant.

So sad. If you ever read any of my reviews I don't do fast food very often. Sometimes I just want…read moresome hot and spicy chicken. Popeyes has always had really good, solid spicy chicken wings. They also have a Rojo sandwich I had never seen before. I ordered just the wings and sandwich, no sides. When I ordered the wings, the very nice lady gave me a look and she said, "You know they use a dry rub now...". Why didn't I take the warning?? They used to come to each location marinating in this really spicy, flavorful coating that delivered some serious heat.... No more. Now they take their plain wings - which aren't bad wings, they just aren't really hot, which is what I was looking for. Nope, they aren't hot at all. Very, very disappointing. Also, it took so long to get my wings that the person who took my order offered me free food to make up for it. I declined, I have to watch my waistline!! The Rojo sandwich arrived first and it was solid. I love the bread to chicken ratio this sandwich has. Really good sandwich and much spicier that the "Ghost Pepper" wings. The place was inviting and clean. Great music playing as always.

Hominy, hush puppies, cornbread, grits, Alabama white sauce on any meat, especially smoked chicken, are all popular in Alabama. BBQ is practically a religion in the South! As former certified Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS) certified judges, my husband and I completed the training and paid the fees to be certified. The "KCBS way" is different from a lot of people's preferences in that, for example, a BBQ rib should actually have some "pull" to it, meaning, when you bite into it, your mouth should leave a mark in the rib. This means "fall off the bones" ribs are not KDBS quality, despite how many love that rib consistency. The KCBS judges slots fill up so quickly and required us to travel at our own cost and we did not judge any KCBS events. Back to Southern food. Deep fried double Oreos are one of the many fried foods here in Huntsville, and Melt restaurant features them on their menu. Meat-and-Three restaurants feature a meat (usually fried pork chop, meatloaf, BBQ, fried catfish, country fried steak/chicken) and three sides (fried okra, creamed corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked potato, potato salad, cole slaw, French fries) and bread options such as cornbread, rolls, hush puppies. While Southern Cooking is absolutely delicious, I have to limit it because lets face it, it is high in calories and cholesterol. When I do indulge, it's shrimp and grits, pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes, and fried whole okra.

That's why CFA is so popular. Atmosphere: Not much to say, looks clean inside. I didn't really explore or anything though... Service: This review is mostly based on a shoutout for Christian, the guy that was helping at the front of the store, plus all of the staff. This is probably the most efficient and NICEST CFA I've been too. I was there three nights in a row, every time I had consistent, pleasant service. CFA is known for this, but I mean, come on, can't be perfect every time. But whatever this particular branch is doing, keep it up! Everyone was just nice to me, everyone deserves a bonus. Price: CFA has always been a tad bit more expensive than other fast food places, but like I always say, I'm willing to pay a little more if it is solid.

Overall: This particular branch seems especially busy, but in all the times I have gone, they have always gotten my order correct AND they always seem super engaged, happy, non-combative, you know... overall good service.

Visiting Foley from out of state, we brought my MIL out for lunch here. Before visiting, I called…read moreto inquire about handicap access because she has breathing issues and is easily winded even with her portable oxygen. I was told there were several handicap accessible entrances including the atrium in the front. We parked on the street in front of the atrium and entered through those doors. My MIL told the hostess that she couldn't walk too far because of her breathing issues and the hostess said that was no problem. However, for an older person with mobility and breathing issues the distance between reception and the dining area was significant, and we paused once for her to catch her breath. We were seated at the table closest to the door, which was preferable, and our waitress stopped at the table within a short period of time. My MIL asked if the restaurant serves alcohol, and the waitress said they could get her anything she wanted. She ordered a Pinot Grigio, and I asked if the restaurant has decaf espresso. She said no, so I said that I would still like an espresso martini even if it was caffeinated. She said they don't have espresso martinis. I asked her to take my husband's drink order and come back to me, and I ordered the same wine as my MIL for simplicity's sake. We also ordered two apps at the same time. The dining room was sufficiently busy with what appeared to be only two waitresses. She returned with our drinks promptly and took our entree orders, including my MIL's request for two beignets to go. She returned with appetizers in a decent amount of time, at which time I feel like things took a turn for the worse after the waitress was making room for the food and spilled my husband's water and ice onto the table. We took two of our cloth napkins and tried to stop the water from dripping into my MIL's lap, and the waitress said she was having a "Monday on a Tuesday." Given her less-than-happy demeanor, she clearly wasn't having a great day. Look, we've all had bad days, but the customer should still receive proper attention and we did not. We asked for more napkins to replace the wet ones; we never got them. I flagged down the other waitress and asked for napkins; she also ignored our request. My husband ended up taking two place settings off a nearby table after it was clear that no one was bringing them. Our waitress never asked how our food was, never refilled our water, nor asked if we wanted anything else, and we sat for quite a while after finishing our food before she stopped by again. We had been in the restaurant for an extended period of time at this point, and my MIL's oxygen machine started to run low. We got the waitress' attention and explained the situation, asking for the check and to cash out so we could get her home. My MIL reminded her that we had ordered the desserts to go and she said she remembered. The bill came and the credit card was run, but no pen to sign with so fortunately I had one in my purse. My MIL handed her a cash tip, and then we waited. And waited. And waited for the to go dessert. The waitress passed by several times knowing that we needed to go as soon as possible, but did not comment on how long it would be before the food was ready. I suggested that my husband help my MIL to the car since it was a bit of a walk in her condition and I would wait for the dessert. Ten more minutes after they walked out went by, and the dessert still hadn't come out. My husband tried to call me to say we needed to get going but there isn't any cell phone reception and no available Wi-Fi so he left her in the vehicle to come get me so we could bring my MIL home. Within 20 minutes we returned to get the dessert. She had asked for two orders when we placed the order, and when I was handed the container it was a single beignet. We had no desire to wait for another to be made, and after checking the slip we saw that only one had been entered by the waitress. As I said, people have bad days and I get it. Today's experience was less than 5 stars, and my MIL still tipped well. Her steak was excellent, our salmon and oysters were decent but not outstanding. The Caesar dressing was very flavorful, but the potato salad tasted similar to store bought although I assume it was made in house. Assessing the entire experience, 2,5 stars seems appropriate. My MIL said she would try them again sometime, so if that happens I will be sure to update the review.

I couldn't keep my hands off of them during the drive down Highway 59. The staff here is always very welcoming and helpful. I don't love the standout order takers, cause you can't really see the menu. Also drivers will cut in front of other drivers that have been waiting, and it's kind of chaos. Consistently great burger, definitely will come back and highly recommend.
