We had a meal for two here today and I must say, it was a fantastic experience! The wait staff was so knowledgeable of their wine selection, and recommended a great white wine. The atmosphere was perfect for our quiet, intimate occasion. Then came the food. We had the steak and it was cooked perfectly, taste was on point! But I also highly recommend the walnut pimiento cheese. We finished with an exquisite strawberry dessert. This will be a regular treat for our date night going forward. R Bistro thank you for this wonderful memory!

We have eaten at many restaurants in Fairhope and last night was the best meal we’ve had. I had the featured fish dish and it was full of flavor and perfectly prepared. My husband had the duck and he was impressed. Our friends both had the salmon and said it was excellent. The presentation for the salmon was impressive. Our waiter made the evening! He was prompt, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. The bartender can shake an icy martini too. We will be back soon for another meal!

I also had the Shrimp and Grits. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal and cannot wait to try something new next time!!

I don’t even know where to start! I cannot recommend this restaurant enough, everything was perfect! This place was some of the best food I’ve ever had. My girlfriend and I came in right before close and were somewhat nervous but Taylor greeted us with the warmest welcome to a restaurant I’ve ever had. She proceeded to be so incredibly polite that my fears of when we arrived were eased instantly. We were seated at an outdoor table and the view and vibes were so cozy yet upscale at the same time. The seats were comfortable and I enjoyed the table layout. The inside of the restaurant also carried wonderful vibes and felt cozy. Our server Erik was very friendly while helping us pick our food and explaining the menu. He was very attentive to our table and kept our gases filled and things clean. I was very impressed by the service this close to closing time. The food was even better than the service! We started with the crawfish macaroni and cheese which came out still sizzling and was so delicious! For entrees I got shrimp and grits and my girlfriend got a bowl of gumbo, an order of green beans, and an order of spinach. The shrimp and grits came smothered in a delightful crawfish and pepper sauce, a perfectly cooked Gouda grit cake, and the best cooked and tastiest shrimp I’ve ever had in my life. The gumbo was savory and reminded us of red beans and rice and was so hearty and delicious. The spinach was the best we’ve had as well, it was salty and hearty and was reminiscent of bay water in an incredible way. The green means (Harcourts vert) were not to our liking but were cooked very well and for someone else would surely be great! We ended the night with a crème brûlée that was so perfectly prepared; the sugar on top was the perfect toast and hardness level and the custard beneath was light and perfect. My girlfriend usually isn’t a fan of the sugar on top but she had almost more than me! I have to reiterate that we came in very close to closing time and still received the greatest service of any restaurant I’ve been to. Erik and Maura were so polite and friendly and we even had a great conversation with Erik after the fact; and whatever they’re paying Taylor is not enough! I cannot recommend this place enough to anyone in the area. The prices were very fair for the portions and quality we received. For two people, an indulgent meal and a generous tip we only spent $116!! I want to personally thank everyone working here for the food, hospitality, and overall perfect experience!

The close up pic of the grits (fried to perfection) shows some of the smoked gouda cheese inside. Additionally, the shrimp were cooked perfectly — plump and juicy — while accompanied by a delightfully rich sauce and plenty of crawfish tail meat. Just enough spicy heat to leave the mouth tingly!
Seldom do I comment on bread, but the crispy cracker crust and moist interior was ridiculously delicious with a little bit of butter! Got several desserts to go: a cupcake-size carrot cake, similarly minimalist cheesecake, and a peanut butter/chocolate mousse — all good and assembled with great attention to detail and all with fresh fruit, edible flowers, and/or sprigs of spearmint.
Eric was very attentive and knowledgeable: plus he was eager to share his own personal menu favorites. Great location away from the “big city” of Fairhope — though inside the facility, future investment in some more sophisticated and effective interior lighting would be welcome (as would be a few “happy hour” options for earlybirds like us). Might also gently suggest tidying up the grounds with a good powerwashing for both the outdoor seating and entry areas — removal of multiple, unused wooden pallets and debris notwithstanding.
Take home: first visit, looking forward to the next!

Absolutely flawless experience at the new R Bistro! The food is not only chef inspired, but every item was chef prepared. They did not miss a beat on food, service, and atmosphere. BBQ shrimp paired with their in house French bread will seriously impress! We will be returning asap.

The food is delicious! Bread was fresh and the barbeque shrimp was the best I ever had, and you have to try the Gumbo! Atmosphere is awesome! The servers were so helpful and took excellent care of our table. This restaurant is very busy on weekends, so come to relax and enjoy the food, you won’t regret it. I love this place!
