Delicious! Service was exceptional! Cassie was wonderful and Brittany J was so nice and an excellent server. Mimosas and breakfast were excellent! We will definitely be returning. Love love love!!! read more

Really great food, but be prepared for a long wait in the summer because it's tourist season. It's one of my favorite brunch places because they have a ton of savory options and Cajun food in addition to traditional sweet breakfast items like pancakes and French toast. I got the pick two eggs Benedict and the beignets. To die for! Follow my Instagram @tastes.of.the.town for more restaurant reviews! read more

I just got back from my 7 day stay in Orange Beach. THREE of those 7 days breakfast was had at The Ruby Slipper. First day I had a bacon infused bloody mary, that was surprisingly spicy, and just overall delicious. With that meal I had the Migas, which I had last yeah, and it was great. I want to figure out how to make it at home. Others in my party had various other drinks. The brandy milk punch, was very good, as was the morning margarita and the various mimosas. Sexond visit was with less people, bit still as delicious. This time I had seasonal benedict. Which was a fried green tomato in place of the bread, with a crabcake, poached egg and hollandaise all atop a bed of fresh baby spinach. It was SO GOOD, I wanted to cry. Then as the waitress joked, i practically licked my place clean....using my daughters toast. My MIL got the seasonal pancake, which was mixed berries with a chantilly cream. So good! My kids just got bacon and eggs, while simple, were VERY good. Third trip, which was on our way out of town. I had the Peace Maker. In this dish you get to mix and match any two benedicts. I got another crabcake and the corned beef. Crabcake was as amazing as the last time, and the corned beef was good...but, not as great as the crabcake. My Nephew got salmon Benedict, which he devoured. The only person unhappy was my mom, who got banana pecan pancakes...she was expecting banana inside the cakes, instead they were sliced on top, but she still enjoyed them. My son got the French toast batons, holy crow, so good! Overall, one of the best brunch places I have ever been, and I've done a lot of brunch. read more

Ruby Slipper Orange Beach - Seasonal Crabcake Benedict. - Cafes Near Me - Orange Beach, Alabama

I'm gluten free and was very happy to see they've added a gluten/allergen menu. I had the Migas and it was delicious. We've eaten at Ruby Slipper every time we've visited Orange Beach. The only improvement I can see that needs to be made is noise reduction. It's extremely loud every time we come. We have to practically yell to talk to one another. They need sound dampening panels or something on the walls. Food is great but the ambiance could be better. read more

Such a fun spot!! Food was wonderful-the salmon omelet with goat cheese made my morning happy. Good coffee, excellent service. Would recommend for a first breakfast at the beach. read more

Overpriced and wait was very long (as expected, despite there being multiple tables open on the inside) and the food was just okay. Iced coffee was not bad, though, surprisingly. The nutmeg was really good with the vanilla, wish it were cheaper or I would have gotten a refill. Would be a 3 stars but the waiter was amazing so I'm giving this place 4 stars just for him. Wish I could remember his name but he was loud and energetic and just what we needed after waiting so long for a table. read more

Did not have the best food this morning. I ordered the French toast bites that were dusted in cinnamon and sugar. But the horrible part was that they deep fried them and they tasted like straight grease. The shrimp n grits were ok more like soup. Won't visit again. Server didn't even ask if she could remove from order. Just told me it was her favorite. Sorry but won't be returning...... read more

Always our first stop in Orange Beach . Friendly service and outstanding food. Roxanne was amazing

Brittany J was an awesome waitress!! Great food. Wonderful Bloody Mary and Mimosas! Will definitely return and ask for Brittany J. read more

You MUST have breakfast here when vacationing in the area. I'm a born and bred New Orleans girl, and the Ruby Slipper is by far my favorite breakfast spot at home. I'm so happy that they've expanded beyond NOLA. The food and service are equally incredible. My favorite dish by far is the Eggs Cochon. It's a heavy dish, but the portion sizes here are very generous so you can share if you feel like it's just too much. You can bring home your leftovers and reheat them too. If you're an eggs Benedict and cochon fan, please, please, please do yourself a favor and give this dish a try. It begins with a perfectly cooked, fluffy biscuit, is topped with tender, sweet pork debris, a poached egg, and a deliciously rich hollandaise sauce. I'm telling you - divine. I haven't ever had anything here that I didn't like and I've been to several of their locations over the past few years. This place is it. read more

This combination was the tastiest thing I've ever had. Everything compliments each other great - the syrup, the hot honey, the crunch of the chicken, the strawberries, and the fried French toast. Definitely will order again! read more

Must have been an off day. Sunday morning. No workflow. New staff. Waitress was very nice and kept apologizing. We all got the wrong breakfast and she made it right by bring us what was missing. Then our real breakfasts were delivered. The restaurant was so cute when we started coming down here 5 years ago. Now it's just kinda tired looking. read more

Sat at the bar for brunch. Excellent service. Great food. I recommend the Migas. Try it for yourself. 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 are locals but this is our first (and last) visit here. We came early on a Sunday morning so it wasn't busy at all. Our coffee and tea came promptly, we ordered beignets to start but all of our food was served at the same time, as announced by our server, "they sent your food with your beignets so you'll just have it together" well not the way we ordered it but ok. The beignets were like solid little boulders, soaked in grease - inedible. We at half of one beignet and didn't touch the others. The poached eggs were done perfectly, but again, the biscuit was so dense and heavy, again not edible. Our server is busy carrying her baby around on her hip and not noticing us so we finish eating what we can. My husband's bacon and eggs were fine. Server finally comes back over and asks us if we want a box for the beignets, no thank you, she refills our drinks and off she goes. Finally returns and again, after taking her baby into the ladies' room (gosh I hope she washed her hands) asks if we want a box, no thank you. She doesn't ask if anything is wrong with them, obviously not interested and gives us our bill. We won't be back, too bad because we are still on the hunt for a regular Sunday morning place to eat. read more

Get the bloody mary with bacon vodka, it is very tasty. The migas tasted good, but do NOT come with tortillas, which being from Texas was weird to me. Kids loved the cinnamon swirl pancakes and ate them all. Wife had the Fried Chicken Benedict, she said "it was okay." Try the white chocolate bread pudding pancakes, you will not regret it. 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

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

Ruby Slipper Orange Beach - Chicken st. Charles sub hollandaise for the pork tasso sauce - Cafes Near Me - Orange Beach, Alabama

Visited late morning on a Thursday in Orange Beach. Seated quickly after checking in online. Started with some morning cocktails. My daughter enjoyed her boozy iced coffee while my husband and I ordered bloody Mary's with the perfect amount of spice. The pickled green beans were a nice garnish. Each of us ordered something different. My sweet heat chicken and French toast bites were delicious. The syrup was just that. The fried chicken was delicious and the French toast bites crunchy. Those that got omelets were happy with them, but my son-in-law ordered his eggs over easy and the yolks were not runny and the whites overdone. Grits were buttery and delicious and the gravy was very good with a hint of spice. Service was great, everyone very nice and friendly. We would visit again. 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

Britni J was great! She delivered our service with class and a side of humor! The pig candy is to die for and I recommend you always order a side of Tasso! 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

One of my favorite brunch spots. Brittany J recommended the new Shrimp Cortez benies. They are awesome ... especially with their Bloody Mary. 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

Extremely RUDE Hostess!!! Beware of the text asking if you would like a table outside!! It was busy and we were fine with waiting. After 30 min, we received a text asking if we wanted a table outside. Sure, no worries. My husband approached the hostess podium as we were under the impression an outside table was available. She replied, "Ok, I'll update your preference." As he turned to leave, I heard her say, "Unbelievable, they should have asked for outside seating to begin with (eye roll)." I decided not to engage any further and we left. 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

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