    Beignets Starter - very good!
    Te-see B.

    I think Dorothy may have stopped here for a quick bite to eat since you do know, "There's no place like home..." Before heading to the Pensacola Airport my friends took me here to meet their beautiful daughter & her boyfriend for lunch. There were plenty of tables and our server was very sweet. I was not that hungry so I shared some Beignet's & fried green tomatoes with my girl Paula. SOOOO good! The food came quickly and it was nice sitting and chatting. Very casual here...not fancy at all... *They do take reservations but we had no problem getting a table at 12 noon on a Monday. I'm sure it's not as easy on the weekends. I would make a resy:) No one rushed us which is always a plus. Only open for breakfast & lunch Mon - Fri: 7:00 AM - 2:00PM Sat & Sun: 7:00 AM -3:00PM Plenty of street parking ~ and that's all I have to say about that...

    Used yelp to get in line for a table very handy. Very busy place so prepare for that. It's loud and crowed but the food is very good, the menu is fun and our waitress and hostess where very nice. -1 star for uncooked beignet and sticky table that our menu, phones and cups kept getting stuck on.

    As always, the food was great! What made it exceptional was the service we received from Robert S. He was very knowledgeable and had a great attitude despite the air conditioning not working. He made sure our food came out fast and fresh with no hiccups. We will definitely be back just because of him!!!!

    Many options

    Great location to try, is best to get on the waiting list before you head there. However, if it's just two of you, the weight will not be very long. Only about 10 minutes for us to get a space and while we waited, we were able to tour the other locations nearby and get some good videos . Although I usually don't like crowded places like this because my seat is not normally a seat I would choose, I think it was worth it this time. We did sit at a small table for two and my back was against the world(I'd rather look out to who's coming behind me), but it was a great experience. Excellent food! I tried something new and like it- Costa Rican Breakfast-however I did not like the plantains, I wish they were sweeter. My husband absolutely love the pancake and his bloody Mary. I did try the mimosa flight, but it seemed to be too much for just one person or its just me. Rob provided excellent service, he has such a great personality. Energetic and lively spirit, he was tentative and made sure to check on everybody. He also gave great recommendations for beach locations and tour locations that will not fill touristy so that you can have a peaceful experience and enjoy Pensacola. The ambience is lively and fun.and loud. Everyone is welcoming and ready to talk to each other providing suggestions, especially to tourist and give us the best locations to go.

    Grit cake with eggs and crawfish
    Daniel T.

    Ruby Slipper absolutely knocked it out of the park! I had the crispiest, most delicious grit cake topped with crawfish and eggs, and it was SO, SO, SO good. The crispy outside of the grit cake paired perfectly with the crawfish and eggs it was one of those dishes where every bite just worked. This was easily one of the best brunch dishes I've had in a long time. 10/10 without hesitation. I'd come back just for this dish!

    Looked so good I had to get a few bites of my Gulf Shrimp Omelet!! So good and shrimp we also on the larger side.

    This is an another visit! Has to be my go to breakfast spot in Pensacola!! Service is fast and friendly and so welcoming!! It sits next to the old Trader John's. In the heart of downtown and complements the area! Very welcoming feel that makes you want to stay and order another mimosas flight!!

    Biscuits and gravy
    Janice S.

    Katie was superb for taking care of us! We received it right away and the service was excellent from the time we sat down till the time we left. Our food was top notch. The loaded tater tots were excellent. I had the mixed Benny and my husband had the biscuits and gravy which the plate was clean when we got out from the table. The atmosphere here is wonderful and the staff are superstars! It's never a moment when they're not taking care of you. This was our first visit but most assuredly it will not be our last! Thank you, Ruby slipper for taking care of us for breakfast.

    Biscuits & Gravy
    Chris Y.

    I visited this location recently since it was a spot my friends and I would visit frequently 9 years ago when I was in the area for school. The place hasn't changed a bit which I love, the bacon Bloody Mary is a must have and you can't go wrong with any of the food items. The Benedict combos are the absolute best so you can have a variety of great choices. I went for the biscuits and gravy to have something more light, but it's still a good size portion and packed with flavor. The staff is always very energetic and helpful which makes you feel right at home. Tons of seating and spots at the bar, with an outdoor patio which is nice when the weather is great. Cant wait to come back again and visit!

    Smashburger
    Sarah C.

    Visited this location on a Saturday around noon. We had a wait time of 25-30 minutes and ended up sitting at the bar (which is first come first serve). Our server was nice and was able to place our order relatively quickly. The mimosa flight was okay. We all agreed the two middle drinks were the best and could have done without the green and red! The smash burger lacked flavor and the fries were cold. Overall service was quick and we had a pleasant experience. If I were to return I would definitely try one of the brunch menu items to see if I enjoyed the brunch options more! Dogs are allowed on the patio and there is street parking available.

    Ambiance and Service 5 of 5 Service was fast and the server was nice and helpful. This place gets really busy and I'd recommend getting there before you want to eat so you can get through the waitlist. I don't think they do reservations though. Trifecta Bennies Sampler 5 of 5 Eggs Conchon Benny Bayou Shrimp Benny Chicken St Charles Benny Each of these were delicious with the eggs Conchon being the best. The braised pork definitely did the heavy lifting. As for the other two, they were great in there own right. However, I'd say the bayou Shrimp needed a bit more seasoning to tet that Cajun flavor through. The hollandaise sauce was delicious on each of them and may be the reason for all the deliciousness. I'll have to visit again to verify. The coffee here was good, but nothing special. If the other food is as good as the Benny's were, I'll have to return for sure.

    Ambiance - same about. It was quit loud with people talking., but the place was packed full. It's definitely better to come here during the week if you like a quieter environment. Mom did not enjoy the noise. Service - excellent. The waitress had it timed perfectly. Food - I started with their Bloody Mary. It was hot and spicy . Good but there was too much ice in the glass. The dressings to the drink were three green beans, a quarter slice of , a quarter slice of ‍ and a green olive . Not very impressive. Next was the appetizer of Pig-Candy Bacon Bites. That was good!!! Mom really enjoyed it. Next we had the Three Little Pigs Omelet. It contains bacon, ham and sausage with Swiss . Loved the omelet. Very filling. Mom could not eat all of hers. The biscuit was fresh made and enjoyable but their grits were not. I was not offered an alternative for them at ordering. Fresh fruit would have been better. A pretty good meal.

    Great food and excellent service! If you don't have a reservation, I'd suggest making one as wait times can get long. But, well worth it! Had such a pleasant experience here and will be returning! Great place and good vibes!

    Eggs Blackstone The O.G. Benedict
    Michael K.

    Absolutely delicious breakfast, a go to spot if you're visiting Pensacola! I've been here twice now and each time it's been fantastic. This time I ordered The Peacemaker which lets you get any two of their Benedict's if you can't decide. I went with the Eggs Blackstone and the Chicken St Charles. The chicken was excellent still warm and crunchy despite being covered with the pork Tasso cream sauce. The biscuit was so good too, I left feeling very satisfied! My partner got the Eggs Cochon Benedict and mom got the Eggs Blackstone Benny. We wished the tomato in the Blackstone had more flavor or seasoning, seemed like a boiled tomato so a little bit soggy. Perhaps if it was a roasted. All in all a great spot and I would come here anytime, all the time lol. So good!

    Hello! What is the parking situation like here?

    There is plenty of parking near there (short walks). You can use the main street (hardest), the sides streets, and there is also a parking deck nearby

    Do they do reservations?

    No they don't but you can go on here look them up and check in 30 minutes before you get there so you don't just sit and wait forever.

    Are there bottomless mimosas?

    Hi Noor, we do not offer bottomless mimosas at this time.

    Are dogs allowed here on the patio?

    Yes, they also have a water bowl for your babes🤗❗️

    Does this restaurant have TVs to play football games?

    Too busy eating delicious food to look at a tv, but I would say no. I have never seen a TV.

    Jennifer which flavor of French Truck Coffee do you serve. I want to order someone but wanted to make sure I purchase the one that you serve? Thanks!

    Creamy vanilla and Nola style to make your day!

    Any Gluton free options yet?

    Jeff I do not remember seeing anything on the menu stating Gluton free. Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Gluten free pancake or French toast option?

If iced coffee is listed as an option, it would help if the staff were more familiar with how to prepare it. Our server had to come back and ask for clarification, and what I received felt more like a flavored iced coffee with a shot rather than a true iced double espresso. I also had to add my own cream, which made it seem like hot coffee might be more their specialty. The food itself was solid, though a bit on the pricey side. The scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and toast were decent. The poached egg with salmon on grilled eggplant and arugula was tasty, and the home fries were a standout--unexpectedly excellent. Service was attentive and kind throughout, which I appreciated. However, the wait time after ordering was noticeably long, and there was a 3% convenience charge for using a debit card, which was noted on the receipt. I don't typically give less than 4 stars, but this feels like a place that could easily improve with some small adjustments.
