Food was ok. Chopped steak was a hamburger Pattie. Way too over priced. Portion was way too small. Nice clean and friendly staff, big bar with lots of drinks. read more

My wife and I stopped in for lunch on Saturday on our way up to Troy for the game, and we weren't disappointed. Opp was running a festival so we got greeted by a car show in the parking lot. Even though service was slow, the food was on point. read more

First off I will say that the menu online is incorrect due to somethings have changed, so if your going to order to go give a call first. Now to the best part. This restaurant is an excellent choice for dining, especially if you're craving a fantastic Ribeye steak. ​The customer service is consistently outstanding--the staff are attentive and ensure you're well taken care of. Despite being busy, the location remains quiet and comfortable, featuring pleasant background music and at least two bar TVs. ​Frankly, outside of a homemade meal, this is the best Ribeye steak you'll find. read more

We arrived in town for a funeral and the hotel recommended the Wheelhouse when we asked where we should eat. I called at the last minute for a table for 8 and they were able to accommodate us. The staff was attentive and the food was exactly what we needed--tasty, well prepared comfort food. We each ordered something different and everyone enjoyed their food very much. I had the tri-tip flatbread with French fries. The portion size was huge! I could have easily split it with someone and still had plenty. My husband had the burger. It was smoky and juicy and had an excellent flavor. The French fries were top notch---crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Others in our party ordered: fish tacos, fish & chips, shrimp bisque, club sandwich, BLT sandwich, and mahi. The dessert menu looked great but we were all so full we decided to pass. But next time I will split a meal so I can try the blueberry cheesecake or key lime pie. I would recommend the Wheelhouse to anyone wanting to enjoy quality food, friendly service, and great southern hospitality! read more

Food is absolutely fabulous, service was excellent, tri tip salad was exceptional. We will stop again.

We love this setting, feels upscale yet relaxed. Have never had wait staff that wasn't super friendly and efficient. Last visit we had chicken wings, brussel sprouts, & fried pickles and all were great! Creative bar. Very very cute downtown area that is thriving at lunch, quiet after dark but with picturesque street with overhead lights. This is definitely worth the visit. read more

The Wheelhouse what a unique place to have a cocktail or enjoy some yumme food or both. Their seafood is fresh, & seasoned just right and my fav. Great staff always friendly, the appetizers are perfect especially paired with wine, beer or martini. Three dining areas are offered inside and a large patio area to enjoy live music, cool cocktails and your meal. The Wheelhouse is a place you wouldn't expect to find around here. A classy place to enjoy lunch or dinner, the menu offers some surprises and they are oh so yumme surprises. See you at The Wheelhouse. read more

Great atmosphere and great service! The pizza is all homemade and it's amazing! I would definitely recommend everybody to give it a try!

I got the shrimp & cheese grits for my meal. The grits was very dry and had no flavor. I will say our service there was very good and attentive. read more

When you see people standing outside waiting you know it's good. Did not disappoint. Service was good & food prepared & presented with perfection. If you want a quick beer & sandwich go to a bar & grill. If you want a wonderful dining experience this is your place read more

YUMMY! Fish and Chips were delicious, but OH MY that Mac n Cheese was AMAZING! Very friendly staff and rustic chic environment! Loved the Bartop and lights! read more

We went on a Sat. evening, about 6:30pm. The restaurant was not "busy" or crowded. Our initial greeting was curt, not inviting. We were a party of four and the wait was about 20 min, even though we could see unbussed tables the whole time. We ordered, but one of our party couldn't get her "favorite" because they were out of Tri Tip meat. It took OVER 45 min for our food to come to table. My wife & I both ordered the 8oz filet steak, Medium Rare. 1st of all, I have NEVER seen a Filet Mignon come to the table already cut in two 4oz pieces. Both were cooked Medium, not Medium Rare as requested. On top of being over cooked, mine was in "left under the heat lamp" condition. As far as the rest of the meal; the salad was excellent, the mashed potatoes may have come from a box (hard to say-not, much flavor for garlic potatoes). Their saving grace was our server, MADISON B. She was cheerful, polite, and competent. That said, I don't think that's enough to bring us back. read more

Wheelhouse has never disappointed! Customer Service (Brayden - Marie) is always excellent and food - unexpected hidden gem in Opp, AL. Rustic and relaxing - booth dining for privacy! read more

Wheelhouse - Quick lunch with wings and fries to perfection - American Near Me - Opp, Alabama

The steak was very tough and chewy I was disappointed because I had heard such good things

In a nearby town to see family. Wheelhouse looked like a good place to try...so we did, twice! Took one set of parents for dinner Friday night & loved the experience so much, we brought the second set of parental units back for lunch the next day. Service was outstanding. Can't give enough accolades to our server, Dan. He was spot on, from food recs to table service to conversation. And we had Breaydon ( sorry if I misspelled)as a server for lunch. Also great service and awesome recs. As far as the food, we couldn't have been happier. Between the 2 meals (in less than 24 hrs) we had "My Sharona " pizza ( iykyk)and it was fantastic. Smoked wings ( we ordered for both meals....should tell ya how good they were) and they did not disappoint either time, good size & well smoked) Fish & chips- I don't eat seafood, but my husband said it was awesome. Wheelhouse burger and Southern(?) burger with fried green tomato and pimento cheese looked VERY tasty and parents said both were great. Elvis fries were also yummy. I got the Wheelhouse salad with tri-tip. Great, fresh tasting salad. Tri tip might have been just a tad too salty for me but it definitely didn't stop me from eating it all! Got white chocolate bread pudding and key lime pie to go... both were delicious, btw. As for ambiance, nice laid back vibe. A little quiet for hubby & I ( we're kinda loud folks) but all 4 parents said it was perfect. Bathrooms were very clean. Nice touch with the missing man table... as my husband and myself are veterans, as well as my dad being retired military...so thank you for that Overall, both meals were a wonderful experience and we will definitely come back when we are back in the area. read more

Service was awesome! Ambiance was great! To be fair, we knew we were getting cheese, and five different kinds of it. What we also thought we were getting, tho, was crust on the bottom - you know: something that the cheese would sit on, something that would hold the cheese up. It was like homemade macaroni and cheese without the macaroni. It was mozzarella sticks without the breading. It was a pool of greasy cheese with bread sticks around the edges holding it all in. I feel gross. The other food we saw being served looked delicious, so I'm not bitching about anything except that one thing, promise. 5/5 for service and surroundings. 2/5 for this specific pizza. read more

Wheelhouse - White 'pizza' - American Near Me - Opp, Alabama

When my husband and I go the restaurant is usually pretty empty but the service is always amazing, almost as great as the food! We try to order something different every time and are never disappointed! read more

Me and a co worker stopped in for a quick lunch and was not disappointed!! The inside of the restaurant has a kind of rustic comfortable feel to it feels like you can sit and hang out for a while. The food was very good! They have a wide selection of food from burgers to pasta and pizza. I got the wheel house burger and it was amazing! The patty was a little over cooked but the sweet bun made up for it. I got a side salad and it definitely wasn't what I was expecting presentation Wise. It's a place I'm going to definitely stop back by when I'm in the area again read more

First time dining @ Wheelhouse. Great service - food was delicious - seafood was fresh - fries are excellent- loved the mojito and the key lime pie was superb! Party of five that enjoyed our dining experience in Opp visiting from Niceville, FL and Auburn, AL! We will be back again! read more

Lunch was fantastic: service, food and an overall a cute place. Don't pay attention to the current rating. We just happened to stumble upon it driving. So glad we did. read more

Some good friends took us to The Wheelhouse and said it is one of their favorite places. Tucked away in little Opp Alabama The Wheelhouse is a real gem. From the comfy rustic style of the beautiful old repurposed brick building to the friendly staff and well thought out menu you will find plenty to enjoy. We got burgers and seafood and chicken and it was delicious and plentiful . The wait time was short. The food was fresh and the prices were reasonable. We will definitely go back and we can recommend this restaurant 100%. read more

Visited this small town for leisure. Decided to check out this place. Outside looked so cute and inside looked even better. Decor is AMAZING. Being in such a small town, we had no idea how expensive this place was going to be. We decided to stay eventhough menu was fairly limited and most entrees were over $20. Chicken Alfredo looked excellent and presentation was perfect. Taste tho was so bland! Super disappointing. Spinach lasagna was about the size of the palm of my hand and over $20. Definitely not worth it. No sides are included with entries so that will cost you another $4-8. For two people our bill was over $78 and we left hungry. It was a real disappointment. read more

Read about restaurant in the Alabama Living magazine so had been wanting to try. We went about 2:15 pm on a Wednesday afternoon. There were 2 occupied tables when we went it. Quick to seat us and take drink orders. Husbands drink was fine, I had Diet Dr Pepper and it was flat. We ordered conch fritters as husband had never had them. Conch was rubbery, not a lot of taste other than taste of batter of the fritters. Husband had the hamburger, patty was lukewarm at best, looked and tasted like it was a frozen patty, not fresh. Took forever for wait staff to bring condiments for burger, but he said the bun was terrific, best thing about the burger. Fries were just fries, not good or bad just fries. I had French onion soup e which was good. Nice beefy taste, plenty of onions. It's a nice looking restaurant, clean, I appreciated the missing man table as my husband is a veteran. Will I eat there again, nope!! Would I recommend nope. read more

We have now been to the Wheelhouse several times for dinner and lunch. The food and service are always outstanding! It is worth the drive and the wait. we have had had several entrees but my favorite is the tri tip flatbread. Try the baked feta for an outstanding starter and finish with Moonpie banana pudding. read more

I went in for lunch and ordered the ribeye. One side of my steak had black burn on it and the other side was perfectly cooked. It had the taste of black char. (Defiantly) a bad smell read more

We were driving by Opp at lunchtime and almost didn't stop here due to one lame reviewer who trashed the place. It looked attractive from the outside though, new, big, and not at all a hole in the wall. The food was terrific as was the service. I would describe it as traditional and New South cuisine. The Shrimp Chowder-Bisque was terrific and my wife's "The" Chicken Sandwich lived up to it's menu buildup. The chef deserves his celebrity reputation, and as long time New Orleanians I think we know a bit about excellent cooking. read more

We drove over from Andalusia to try something new. Food was fantastic- our table had two gulf platters, a ribeye and kids cheeseburger sliders. Everyone loved their meal - they did a great job on a split plate that two of us shared. Everything from drinks to dessert was really great! Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and prompt. We highly recommend and cannot wait to come back again! read more

My wife and I took my sister there because we believe in supporting the local economy. Boy what a mistake. The food was marginal, overpriced and small portions. How the people in this area rate this as a 4+ star restaurant is outrageous. The locals must not leave the town limits much. Do not waste your money and time at this place. read more

Happened unpin the restaurant for lunch while driving through. The food is well executed, simple, and southern. Service was thoughtful, quick, and well done. This is best restaurant for 100 miles. If you're anywhere close I'd highly recommend it. read more

Me and some friends came to town for the Rattlesnake Rodeo. We at lunch here and it was very good. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was great too. I had one of the blue collar specials and they had the tri tip salad. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was the cocktails could have been better, they weren't horrible by any means however. I do highly recommend this place. read more

Service was pitiful, food was cold and the restaurant was empty with a 15 minute wait. Manager wouldnt come out to speak with me and the waitress were bitches. read more

Food was okay. An amazing server but rude food runner. Pretty ambiance With all the paintings.

Charge you for everything ,,, shot of steak sauce that will be a buck. Crackers with you salad. 25 cent a piece. Overpriced and not good read more

My husband and I came to this super cute restaurant last week. I thought the food was awesome and the service was great! I liked it so well that we stopped by again today on our way to Enterprise. We had another great experience. I had the French dip sandwich (delicious) and took some home with me. Also I had the key lime pie which is made on site. It was so good and enough for 2 to share. As a person who visits restaurants in Birmingham and Auburn/Opelika really often, I would say this restaurant stands tall beside any of them. Prices aren't too bad for sure. read more

If you want an exceptional environment with lousy service and worse food then visit this place! The potato wedges were awesome but the drink was terribad. The shrimp Alfredo tasted like a lemon and was undercooked. It was almost empty and took 20 minutes just to get drinks. Oh yeah, the food came before the drinks and the lady that brought the food went to get our drinks.... read more

Customer friendly staff. Quality food. Pleasant and clean atmosphere. Diverse entertainment. 5-stars.

What a let down!! We came here with friends from Andalusia looking for something better than Captain D's. We would have eaten better with the Captain! My husband got the fried chopped steak with mashed potatoes. The meat was smothered with a bourbon gravy that he said was terrible and as a man that loves mashed potatoes, he said they were the worst he has ever eaten. I got the Pesto Pasta with shrimp and garden vegetables. The chopped vegetables and shrimp were good but the pesto was way too strong. For $22 I would have expected a salad and some bread but each of those was Al la carte. Very disappointing. Oh, we got the worst fried calamari I've ever tasted. If it had been good, I would have been disappointed because there was so little of it. We even left some of it too it was so under cooked. Overall the experience was nice in that the atmosphere and service were excellent. We enjoyed the experience with our friends but the cuisine left much to be desired. I will usually give a place a second time to redeem itself but I won't waste this much money on such lousy food. For 5 people, our bill was over $150. read more
