Service sucks, especially the front desk ladies. No greeting and when we check in, there were lots of empty tables but they told us it's a 40 minutes wait. We saw at least 8 families walked out hearing 40 minutes wait. Do they not want business or they couldn't handle what they got. The old lady at the front desk looks like she doesn't even want customers, smile a little lady. What a grouch! read more

This has always been one of my favorite breakfast spots in Destin and they continue to impress. The wait time was officially at 40 minutes however we got seated after only 10 minutes. The food was phenomenal and the staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Also as a guy who loves super sweet tea, they know what they are doing when they are brewing theirs. The ambiance is something straight out of an 80's movie and I love it. Nothing bad to say great experience as always. read more

Dirty, and the food was microwaved. Nothing was fresh. Would not go Back. This place has given up. read more

We ate here in 11 Nov, and our server Amber was fantastic. She checked on a a million times and had a fantastic personality- we felt so welcome! The flourentine omlette was amazing (I added bacon) and the peach bellini was delicious. Definitely recommend giving it a mix before sipping, as they use real fruit so it settles at the bottom. Their biscuit butter is so melty-good too! Sinks right into the buscuits. read more

On cloud nine in Destin, FL for our 2nd honeymoon! Slid into this gem for brunch and let me tell you--it delivered. The coffee and sweet tea? Chef's kiss. ‍ We dove into The Trifecta Egg Bennies, the Three Little Pigs Omelet, and a White Chocolate Bread Pudding Pancake that dreams are made of. Every bite hit harder than a Florida sunbeam. Major shoutout to Theo, our server--friendly, professional, and all-around good vibes. The man deserves a raise and a medal. MUST DO: Use your Yelp App to get in their wait list! 10/10, would recommend without hesitation. TTFN! read more

The food was great and Kara, our server was the best, friendly, attentive and helpful with menu items. Great place.

Food was okay, kind of mid, slightly cold, Smash burger looked and tasted like Crabby Patty and was probably frozen and not fresh. It's a good place to go for breakfast items. read more

Very fast. Food was very good. Enjoyed the experience. Recommend it for a casual breakfast.

Our waitress was so nice and our food came out quick which was great with a table of hungry baseball players. Just your basic restaurant but the food was great and everyone was nice. read more

Ruby Slipper Destin - Mimosa Flight - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Destin, Florida

We went here with a group of about 15 people the day after a wedding. Even though we were a big group, we were seated quickly. I was impressed with their selection. Because we were a large group, I didn't want to cause any disruption so no food pictures this time. They have menus for food restrictions, which is impressive in and of itself. Gluten-"friendly," vegetarian, and keto-friendly. I try to avoid gluten, so I ordered their "Eggs Cochon" off their Gluten-Friendly menu. I was curious what "Apple Braised Pork Debris" was, so I asked. Essentially, it's their fancy way of saying Pulled Pork. I had it served over gluten-free toast with two poached eggs. And, while I usually avoid diner-coffee, we were post wedding so I needed some. It was good. I did like the Eggs Cochon - very tasty indeed. The service was good, especially for such a large party. Even though we took up a lot of seats, we didn't feel rushed at all. The server was very patient and very attentive. I'd recommend Ruby Slipper for their good food and service. read more

Always love a Ruby Slipper visit since first trying it years ago in New Orleans (and there may have been just that location at that point...). First time to the Destin location and was not disappointed at all. Same pleasant, vibrant atmosphere as I've seen at other locations. Service was friendly and attentive, also a staple. Food, also as expected, was excellent (went with the Eggs Cochon this time...basically a magical riff on an Eggs Benedict with savory pork over a biscuit topped with perfectly poached eggs and hollandaise...and some greens in there too, so there's even a dash of healthiness!). The other bennies are also incredible, and I heartily endorse doing the option to try two or three. I've always found the omelets to be quite satisfying too. A decent selection of brunchy cocktails rounds things out nicely (several mimosa options, the breakfast margarita is refreshing), and some non-alcoholic choices of course (good coffee options). Stop in, start your day right. And they can get crowded, so don't be shy about using the waitlist option on Yelp! read more

The service was awesome. We are from out of town and were able to check in on the restaurants page without being there. It allowed us to take our time getting to the restaurant and the yelp app gave us updates on where we were in line. It was accurate, when it was time for us, we walked in gave our name and was seated. They had a variety of foods to choose from and the atmosphere was great. The food was great and the meal didn't feel heavy us when we were done. read more

OMG. What an amazing experience. Not only was the food phenomenal but our server Catie was wonderful. She made the whole morning feel special. I highly recommend the Costa Rica breakfast! YUMMMMM. read more

Wow. I was shocked at how bad the food was. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and I couldn't even cut through it with my fork. The scrambled eggs were wet and runny. The beignets were tough and swimming in powdered sugar. Our waitress was nice and covering lots of tables, but I would definitely not recommend eating here. read more

Breakfast had some hits and some misses but mostly good! The grits have milk in them if you are not used to that then order the breakfast potatoes. The chicken was seasoned well and hot. The sauce was great but wasn't a fan of the french toast it seemed overly greasy. My mom got the gulf shrimp omelet and that was delicious. She loved the jelly for the biscuit as well. read more

Food was very bland, potatoes were cold and overcooked. Eggs had no flavor whatsoever. However our waiter was very nice and the beignets were good. But we will not be returning. We spent $50 and didn't even eat half of our food. read more

I have been to a Ruby slipper in New Orleans and was excited to see a new location in this area, which I frequent. There were two of us for a late breakfast, and the menu appeared to be similar to what we were accustomed to in Louisiana. The ambience was, a bit tired and felt dingy. I'm not sure what changes had been made after taking over from the former restaurant tenant. All in all our meal was decent. But the thing that stood out was the service. Our waitress did not seem to be really interested and Checking on us or getting our order. We came in hungry and ready to eat and we were there well over an hour and a half just due to her, not checking on us and not taking our order in a timely manner. It was one of those scenarios where we had to try and waive her down and eventually had to ask one of the other weight staff to locate our waitress. I hope that our poor experience is limited and we plan to return on a future trip. read more

The food and the service where amazing! Prices seemed reasonable. We had boozy coffee, biscuits and gravy, French toast bites and Minga skillet. So good! Our waitress was a doll. We will definitely go back before our trip is over. read more

I ordered the chicken and French toast bites meal and it was delicious. Great food, service and drinks.

I gave this place another chance after saying I wouldn't be back 2 years ago. It could be that it's September 30th and/or I am traveling alone and walked right up to the bar, but this time they did get it right. I love breakfast tacos and theirs was really good. I got it with cheese grits. The bartender was very attentive and nice. The place was quiet and nice. read more

This is a great place! I had the Migas this trip it was flavorful and good. The hubby did not love his biscuits and gravy, I liked it I feel like it was just a touch off the southern sausage gravy that he is used to. Our server was Jillian was friendly and on top of things. The bloody marys were ok, but nothing to write home about. In my opinion the star of the show was the tater tot starter. The apple braised pork on these things was amazing and tender. This is where two people at the same table can have radically different feelings about the same dish. It was not at all what my husband expected and he did not care for the "stringy gloopyness" of the pork. Oh well, more for me. This is a great place to try if you are looking for a hearty breakfast in Destin. read more

What a fabulous little diner to grab something to eat and surprisingly they also have good drinks. We went for breakfast and were greeted and seated immediately. The ambience was light and pleasant and it was a perfect place for a great breakfast on the beach. I had the shrimp omelette and it was very large and full of seafood. My friend had the Meat omelette and it was very large as well. They also had pretty decent grits. I like that they had a lot of cocktails as well as mock-tails to choose from. The Irish coffee was amazing and they had a nice pour of whiskey inside. They also had a fantastic mocha and the whipped cream is thick, rich and delicious. In fact, you could tell that the whipped cream is homemade.and every single drop is delicious. I really enjoyed this place and I would definitely return again. read more

We visited here twice on our trip for a wedding. We were lucky enough to get Annalesa both times as our server! She was super sweet and even remembered what we ordered from our first visit (we went with a day between). Best service we had all weekend! The food was great. We had omelettes, migas, and chicken sandwich. Pumpkin spice latte (soooo good) and the Eras flight. Everyone complimented the food. The atmosphere is low key, cute decor, and just all around lovely. Definitely would recommend visiting here! read more

Catie at Ruby Slipper was absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, she brought such a fun, upbeat energy that instantly set the tone for a great experience. She was super attentive without being overbearing, checked in at all the right moments, and made sure everything we needed was handled flawlessly. Her personality was warm, engaging, and genuinely made us feel welcomed--service like hers truly elevates the entire dining experience. If you're dining at Ruby Slipper in Destin, ask for Catie--you won't be disappointed! read more

ALL the food was delicious! Why aren't they in Texas Found out the place originated from Louisiana, specifically New Orleans (no wonder the food tasted great)! Service was great as Ms. Megan was quite pleasant and patient (we had 4 kids in our table with 5 adults). Ambiance was basic + - nothing fancy but there were a few extra things here and there (cool sayings, wall display case). Overall, we'd be back! Mimosa Flight was delicious (watermelon was my fave). Pancakes (with the whiskey sauce) set a new expectation for all my future pancakes! Everything else was as expected! All in all, thoroughly impressed and didn't expect to be! Nice Job! A1 read more

Such a delight/pleasant surprise to find out that there was a ruby slipper in Florida. The only location that I'm aware of is the one in New Orleans, so this was a pleasant surprise. Cannot go wrong with any of their dishes. Although we were in a complete different state, the hospitality was no different than what we were received in Louisiana. The food was delicious and we definitely left with a full stomach and then some! It was a first time to get their candied bacon, only complaint is that I didn't get unlimited amounts lol I kept it simple with one of their cheesy ham and bacon omelettes which was del ious and packed with lots of meat. Biscuits were buttery and soft per usual read more
