Excellent service and impeccable dishes. Scenery is busy-casual. Definitely a good spot for family and kids!

If you're ever in the mood for brunch, that hits all the right notes, comforting, creative, and downright delicious. The ruby slipper Café is a must visit. From the moment you walk in the warm buzzing atmosphere sets the tone for a memorable meal. But what really takes the experience over the top is Nate and Morgan. Let's start with the food. It's Southern inspired magic the eggs, Chacon, a biscuit top of slow cooked pork and perfectly poached eggs. All smothered in hollandaise sauce is a knockout. Their bananas foster pain. Perdu is rich indulgence. But great food is only part of the experience. Nate and Morgan are truly the soul of the place. Nate's energy is infectious and genuine hospitality paired with efficiency that makes everything flow seamlessly. Morgan brings the perfect balance of friendliness and attention to detail. Together, they elevate the entire vibe of the café. You can tell they care and it makes all the difference . Bottom line; Ruby slipper is a Jim, and Nate and Morgan are the reason that shine so bright 10 out of 10 and then we'll brunch again read more

We came through on vacation to Orange Beach. Here's a bit of a late review. Great breakfast brunch spot! The benedict's were bommb. Some of the best. The fried chicken one was amazing. They all looked great and they let you do a mix and match option so I went with that. The new orleans style french toast bites..o muii goodness... They also have shrimp and grits, candied bacon.. Yea... Service was good the coffee kept pouring. We were wired. Too much more to come back and try read more

We are visiting from Indiana and really just picked a random spot for breakfast. Turns out this place is great. Our waitress was very kind and also had lived in Indiana, so it was almost meant to be. The biscuits and gravy are insanely good, very fresh. I do believe we will be back for lunch in a couple days. read more

Food was decent and waiter was nice but unfortunately the cons outweighed the pros on this visit. Long wait times, uncomfortable seating, cold temperatures (environment and food). Bring a jacket, arrive early and don't hope for your bacon to be remotely crispy. read more

Been to a couple different ruby slippers but this one was a bit better than most. Nice location and everyone was very chill and in good moods. Peter was our server and he did great. Lots of suggestions as far as the menu and advice on places to go. The food was very tasty as well. Glad this place was down the street from the hotel we were staying at because the breakfast there was over priced for the quality you get. Will be back for sure. Forgot to take pics of the main course on my phone but it was good looking too read more

We ordered delivery so I can't speak to the service or the ambiance. My order was incorrect and was slightly disappointed. The shrimp omelette was good, as well as the grits. Nothing to rave about. My parents tried the beignets and said they were doughy. We were supposed to get a speciality pancake but received a plain stack with about 5 blueberries. I wouldn't definitely recommend, but it's worth a try. I've had better at other locations. read more

Normalily I would give 5 starts. The food is always good. My issue on this visit was that I paid with cash and sit for 10 minutes for my change and had to ask another employee to check on the delay. After a few minutes she appeared and rudely stated she had to get change. Threw some bills down on the table with the check and quickly walked away. She had short changed me! Probably should not left a tip at all but did and was not a good one. read more

I had a great experience here--especially the cinnamon roll pancakes. They were warm, fluffy, and perfectly cinnamon-y with just the right sweetness. I'd definitely come back for brunch. read more

Everything was great. Always a bit of a wait due to the popularity of restaurant. But they move quickly to get you seated.

Exceeded our expectations with great food, choices and service by Crystal. The online waitlist before we left the condo worked great for the 30 minute wait on a Sunday mornin in Orange Beach. read more

Went for breakfast. My sister and I were staying across the street. She ordered a BLT sandwich with fried green tomatoes and I got the Southern breakfast. The waitress was very patient with us and recommended several dishes. We weee pleased with the experience. read more

Very cool New Orleans themed breakfast joint. They have a lot on their menu. I had the peacemaker pick two Benedict's. The chicken St. Charles was amazing. The bayou shrimp was a little weird for breakfast. Wasn't a fan of fried green tomato, eggs, and shrimp on a biscuit together. My wife had the hot honey chicken sandwich and it was amazing. Service was decent. Would recommend! read more

Crystal took care of us, and she was five-star all the way. She made some solid recommendations on food. The cinnamon swirl pancakes were amazing! Our table also had the St Charles chicken dish, and that was fantastic. There was no food left on the table at all. If you are in the area, come check this place out. read more

Great food and great service. Wish they took reservations, but it's obviously worth the wait. We highly recommend.

Food was awesome. I had the mago and it was delicious. My husband got the Florentine omelette and loved it. Service was quick and efficient

Brought our family here for breakfast while on vacation! Food was delicious but our server was even better! Carson, thank you so much for starting our day off so well! Highly recommend! Will be back! Until next time....Go Buckeyes! read more

I always enjoy my food here! You can't go wrong eating here! The coffee is amazing as well!

One of the best places for breakfast, can get crowded so be sure to use the waitlist and enter like a rockstar. Service is on point Crystal and Anna killed it,.seasonal beingets, great mimosas and never had a meal here that wasn't good. Persoanl fav's Trifecta Benedict and BBQ shrimp and grits read more

Average food, high pricing with average service. Fried chicken tastes like fish, ordered pancakes for my toddler, waitress charged pancakes to my meal because she wasn't listening then asked for my toddlers order so we were charged double for pancakes. Half my husband's order was missing we didn't even bother to ask for it as the chicken tasted fishy. read more

This place has the absolute worst customer service ever. They can't seem to include all of my order when I order and there is absolutely no way to talk to a human via phone, email or text. Their staff is absolutely terrible , that's why I choose to order them from uber eats but they can't get that right either! And they will do Nothing to fix it read more

I know it's a chain. I don't care. This location is always so kind and friendly. The food is always delicious and the atmosphere just makes it better. You won't be disappointed. read more

The bread pudding pancakes should be illegal they are so good! We've been to the Ruby Slipper here in Orange Beach several times and have always loved the food. Definitely recommend going online and reserving a time though! read more

Idk where to start! They have the most fluffy,sweet, perfectly cooked pancakes I have ever had! The service was quick for the crowd! Also loved how it reminded me so much of Bob Evan's due to the cool displays and meals so in total the food is amazing the service is amazing and the atmosphere raps it up to be a perfect brunch/ breakfast restaurant. read more

We stopped here on our vacation because it was listed as a top breakfast stop. We were sat quickly and Karsyn was our server. We ordered the pancakes, Southaven breakfast and the kids breakfast. All were very good and I had never tried a fried green tomato and it was really good. The inside including the bathrooms was really clean. We left our sons hat and went back later and they had it behind the counter for us. Will definitely be back! read more

The ambiance is nice. Our waiter was helpful and nice. The food was ok. I will advise that you use the waiting line feature. When we got here, we only waited about ten minutes and people that got here when we did, had to wait about an hour. read more

Amazing food!! We had their BEIGNETS (not like ones we got in Mobile, but still delicious), CANDY BACON (so crispy and delicious, we wanted more!!), TRIFECTA (huge portions and so good. Each one had their own flavor), CINNAMON PANCAKES (not too sugary so it was perfect for breakfast, enough cinnamon), BANANA FOSTER PANCAKES (loved this, not your traditional French toast and so good), BLT (prefer a lettuce leaf, not shredded lettuce, and just one more fried tomato would have made it perfect, bread was perfectly toasted- not too hard), BISCUIT AND GRAVY (perfect biscuits and gravy- chunks of sausage and the flavor was spot on). Service was great considering how busy the place was. read more

Service was friendly and lots of things on the menu looked tasty. I decided to try to be healthy and ordered the salmon avocado toast. Big disappointment! There is just way too much going on in this dish. The avocado seems barely present as it is overwhelmed by the loads of flaked salmon, crème fraiche (heavy on lemon), egg (perfectly poached though), pickled red onions, fried capers and chives. The flavors don't work together and I ate not even half. The flaked salmon reminded me of cat food. My mom ordered the Southern Breakfast which was pretty run of the mill as far as breakfasts go, but she said it was tasty. read more

They went above and beyond for our crew. We were on a family vacation and it was about 30 of us in our group. We booked 3 different reservations and they accommodated us. They sat us almost 5 mins after we arrived. The food was amazing! I had the fish and grits! The biscuits were fresh paired with the butter it was perfection!! I would highly recommend. read more

We had our business Christmas brunch at Ruby Slipper in their private room, and it was perfect! The service was attentive, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere made our celebration extra special. We'll definitely be back! read more

The food is always excellent as well as the service. Have very much enjoyed the Costa Rican Breakfast my last two visits but haven't ever had anything I wouldn't reorder. Bartender Morgan makes an excellent mimosa/screwdriver. Highly recommend if in OB looking for breakfast/brunch. read more

We did their online call ahead seating and was given 15 minutes out and 11th in line. Upon our arrival, we checked in and was told it would be approximately 45 minutes before we could be seated after we were finally seated we found that many of their menu items have been changed, even though on the chalkboards they still have them listed. We have been going to this Ruby slipper location For five years, and I can honestly say was disappointed this time. they are adding a $.50 per egg surcharge, which is fine. Some places are others are not. I will say there is a locally owned breakfast restaurant that will be our go to for breakfast from now on. read more

If you're a foodie just skip this place. I got the shrimp egg benny and the veggie egg benny. It came out cold, hollandaise was ice cold and they said it can't be hot because it has eggs in it. Which if you have ever made from scratch that's a lie. The fried green tomatoes were soggy and if you expect a true poached egg with runny yolk be prepared to be disappointed. I actually left hungry and the server knew I was not happy and did not adjust the charge and gave me attitude when I told her my food was cold. I suggest go to The Brick and Spoon. read more
