Crystal gave us amazing service along with incredible food. Not only was I supper impressed but my Wife was too!! Thanks for making our first experience one to remember!!! read more

We thoroughly enjoyed brunch at Ruby Slipper! The Benedict's offerings are incredible!! They offer two per order and you can choose two different types of Benedict's! Mix and match. Great potatoes! The bloody Mary's are wonderful! Service is great! They were extremely busy as it was a Sunday. We went online and put ourselves on their "wait list". I highly recommend doing so especially on weekends and in peak season at the gulf. We will visit next time we are in orange Beach! read more

We usually vacation in Destin but decided to try Gulf shores this year and so far with food choices we have made a horrible decision. When we arrived at the restaurant there was an hour and a half wait but we got sat pretty quickly, 10 tops wait. The food was mediocre at best. Bennies were good but unfortunately the yolk was overcooked. French toast bites with chicken was not good at all, syrup tasted like medicine and chicken was unseasoned, no salt whatsoever. The migas was just a big disappointment all around. I would not recommend anyone to come here, it's best to buy groceries and stay home. read more

Just finished some amazing Apple Cheesecake French toast! Perfect combo and delightfully light! Served with crisp bacon...so good. We sat outside and enjoyed some tremendous service by Brittany J. We'll be back tomorrow to try a couple of items she recommended! Stay tuned! read more

Brittany J provided amazing service. She anticipated our every need. The outside seating area is perfect for Sunday brunch. You will get your monies worth with the portions. read more

Anna R. Is a great server. We really enjoyed our breakfast. Service, food and ambience all 5 stars! Definitely recommend!

Great food! The Bennies are all really something but that Egg Chocon... Brittany J did a great job! Kind and helpful! Great service. read more

Really good breakfast and great service. We would definitely eat here again. We actually showed up a few minutes before they opened and they let us right in and seated us. read more

Food was great. Hostess, not so much. Air conditioner couldn't keep up with the heat in July. Peter G is a phenomenal server and we hope the establishment recognizes him as such. read more

Always the same! Best breakfast at every location! Fun, too! Gets crowded so plan accordingly.

I've eaten at the sister location in Birmingham. This location was excellent. Same menu, same great food- delicious and great quality. I got the chicken st.Charles, which is a biscuit with fried chicken breast, a poached egg Benedict, and I substituted Hollandaise for the pork Tasso sauce. Delicious! The fried green tomatoes here are also really good, and everyone in our group was pleased with their food. Service was good. It was crowded on a Sunday morning and parking is a bit of an issue. We had probably a 45 minute wait. There's some mask wearing but not a lot. They have some outdoor seating. For the food, I would definitely recommend! read more

HOLY. COW. 1st of all, we all know brunch places are busy so make sure you join the online waitlist before leaving your house. 2nd of all, I stepped outside my comfort zone and ordered the Crawfish eggs Bennie and WOW. Best thing I've ever eaten. I watched my husband side eye me the whole time while eating his sad little omelet. I began telling those waiting for a table they needed to order this. (One did and showed me #influencer ??) When I got back to my room to take a post brunch nap, I literally dreamt about that crawfish bennie. Think they'll deliver to Texas?? Lol read more

Did the app check in, it helped none. Waited 1 1/2 hour and finally got seated and sat there 19 minutes before greeted. Ordered and waited another 10 minutes before our drinks were brought out. Good food, made changes to our order and it was perfect read more

They keep getting rid of my favorite dishes! First it was the Costa Rican and now the Crawfish. They are losing their variety. The grits and biscuits are really good though. read more

The food is delicious and makes you want to come back and try everything! Anna and Nate are an amazing duo, who are very friendly and helpful! The ambiance is very bright and inviting! Best food I had during our 1 week visit in Gulf Shores. read more

We stumbled upon Ruby Slipper Cafe on our last trip and enjoyed it so much we made sure to go again on this trip. We love their variety of eggs Benedict. My favorite is the eggs cachon.. DELICIOUS! read more

The food was good but I like my food served HOT , service was slow and the eggs Benedict were cold like they had been plated 15 minutes before being served. read more

I was so excited to find a spot with bourbon milk punch, a favorite of mine in New Orleans. What I received tasted exactly like carnation instant breakfast with a splash of bourbon. On the rocks. Not remotely like the Bourbon House original. Oh well, one should never judge a restaurant by a cocktail. Replaced that with a Bloody Mary and moved on. Our server recommended the candied bacon. 4 broken strips of cold bacon arrived at our table in a soup bowl. Oh well, is bacon ever bad? No, but it can definitely be not good. Then our entrees arrived less than 10 minutes after placing the order. Should we be thrilled at the speed or terrified? I ordered the shrimp and grits. Server asked if I'd like cheese added to my grits. Yes, obviously! What arrived looked like brown gravy with shredded cheese on top that did not melt. It had the VERY distinct flavor (and smell) of reheated shrimp. Their made in house biscuits were white and very hard. Husband's biscuit and gravy was equally unappealing. It was the first time we both agreed to get the check and eat elsewhere. Our server was perplexed, but told us that we had ordered their best 2 dishes and handed us to go boxes and the check. Boxes?!?! At least we'll always have the memories read more

Visited on a Sunday at 2 pm and the staff was more interested in closing at 3. They sat us at the bar which was dirty and waited 10 min and no one waited on us so we got up and left this dump. read more

Solid breakfast. Gravy was good. Biscuits were great. Prices were good for beach standards.

We go around tasting restaurants that have great ratings around the big cities, and we gotta say Ruby's slipper is missing the mark big time. The eggs Benedict is improperly made...the yolk is not runny and it was the same for other clients. The beniets are more like tortilla chips with powder sugar(just HORRIBLE) and which is sad since the owner is from New Orleans. The biscuits are super hard on the corners. And they skimp on all the gravys on all the plates. The staff handles food with their bare hands after touching their faces, and there is alot of flies!!!!! read more

Stopped in for a quick breakfast and had a very tasty meal. My wife had the chicken St Charles Benedict. I had a combination of the Cochon and the shrimp boogaloo Benedict's. The chicken was huge and my wife really loved it. The cochon benedict was fantastic. The shrimp boogaloo was good too but o don't recommend pairing them as the boogaloo tomato base is a very powerful flavor where the cochon is more delicate. The biscuits they came on were fantastic too. read more

Our last vacation breakfast and it couldn't have been better. We sat on the porch and the breeze was amazing. I won't lie, I found the noise of the traffic annoying since it over looks the main road. Now for the food. My husband got the shrimp boogaloo Benedict. Presentation and smell were amazing. He said it was delicious. I'll have to take his word since I don't do runny eggs. The biscuit was huge and from what I could tell the fried green tomatoes were crispy. I got the pancake flight. Today's pancake of the day was a googoo cluster. Let me preface this with I don't do flavored pancakes. A great batter and pure maple syrup is a combination that can't be put to shame. The praline bacon was my favorite of the three. However, you could tell their basic mix was on point. read more

Be sure and use the waitlist app to hop on the app before showing up. Bananas foster French toast, superb. The fried green tomato app, amazing. read more

I got the cinnamon roll pancakes and was excited and all they were was pancakes with a weak icing on top and very pricey but your on the beach so that's nothing out of the normal bad service and food is just bleh read more

Would have given a 5 star but the pancakes were very dry. The eggs Benedicts are all delicious

We visited the Ruby Slipper while we are on vacation. After starting our trip with lots of bad meals and/or service, the Ruby Slipper was just what we needed. I would first recommend putting your party on the waitlist via the website. It helped us out greatly. We went on a Sunday around mid morning and there was a long wait. This helped us to cut our wait time down greatly. Once we got seated, our server greeted us promptly. Drinks came out in a reasonable time as well as our food. I can't say enough about the food. The gulf shrimp omelet was delicious. The shrimp was good sized. It came with a biscuit with honey butter that was so good. My husband got the fall special. His only complaint was there wasn't more on his plate. This is a place I would come back to as well as recommend to friends and family. read more

Good food , unique menu. Service slow. We enjoy eating there when not in a hurry. I had the Mica Mexican plate , unusual but good. New Orleans flavor. read more

This was my family's 3rd trip to Orange Beach, and we have eaten at quite a few places. We've been underwhelmed at most places, but the Ruby Slipper was fantastic! The waiter we had was very friendly, and knowledgeable. The peaches and cream stuffed French toast was so good, that I almost wanted to lick my plate. The biscuits were fluffy and light, and the drinks were not watered down at all ! We had a great meal, fantastic service, and it helped make my Mother's Day a very happy one. read more

this was one of the many dishes we tried while in our honeymoon. The biscuits were light and fluffy the chicken was seasoned to perfection. We did brunch here four days straight. The BBQ shrimp and grits (amazing), fried tomatoes (amazing) breakfast tacos (perfection). The staff was excellent and social distancing was really enforced. We definitely will be going here again on our next vacation to Gulf Shores area. Also I have some dietary restrictions and they were very accommodating. read more

Worst hostess ever. Made Yelp reservations and when we arrived she said," I don't know how to do this online stuff." Poor hiring or poor training-- or both! Stil read more

Last Day in Orange Beach - so we wanted a special place for Breakfast. Saw the Ruby Slipper on Yelp and wondered if it was the SAME people that have a place in the French Quarter in New Orleans. It WAS. Score. I enjoyed the delicious Three Little Pigs Omelette - with Swiss cheese and a Buttermilk Biscuit with their own flavored spread that was MAGIC, and - of course: BACON was delightfully present. My friend had the Stuffed French Toast with Strawberries and Cream Cheese. He was a happy man. This menu is full of interesting looking options and does a great job of making breakfast an adventure again. Definitely worth about 10 visits. At least. read more

We went here for breakfast and it was so busy and the food was wonderful. The wait stuff was so nice and helpful. The ambiance is great in the Ruby Slipper. We will return. read more

After waiting for an hour because we were told it was the best place to get breakfast we were totally disappointed. Service was horrible and our server acted like she hated her job. Plate presentation was sloppy. Bloody Mary was a joke. Food was Luke warm especially the bacon and potatoes. Asked to have hot food which apparently totally pissed off the server. Took another 15 minutes to get more lukewarm food. Ask for a manager and finally gave up and just paid check read more

Sat at the bar both times we have gone - Nate was an amazing server! He gave lots of recommendations and was so friendly. We will be back!

Excellent food and service. Laura the hostess was outstanding and so helpful in helping us navigate Orange Beach.

Always busy cause their food, pricing and service is tops. The wait is well worth it if you cant get in straight away. Its popular for a good reason. Top place to eat and given the choice will always take the drive to this one compared to Mobile. Its just better.... read more

I went to this restaurant about a month ago and I still cannot stop thinking about how great our meal was! I dream about the white chocolate bread pudding pancakes, they were delicious!!! And the beignets were incredible! Our server was the absolute sweetest as well. Highly recommend, this will be a must do on every vacation down here now! read more
