Location & Atmosphere: Loud and tables pushed so close together it is impossible to enjoy a conversation with your guests. Location is well centered downtown and seems to be well kept.
Service: Not overly friendly but well enough for a dinner.
Food: Let me start with the fact that we waited over an hour for our food, not a huge issue but not great.
Here is where the main issues were. We ordered the Caprese salad, seafood pasta, Cutting Board filet and a side of the grits. The Caprese salad was nice but the dressing was a tad too sweet, no biggy. The seafood pasta was decent and well done on the seafood to noodle ratio. The cutting board steak was not a great entree…especially for the price tag of $62!! The steak was ok, no sear and poorly seasoned. The bleu cheese sauce was just ok. The fingerling potatoes were nothing more than gas station potato logs and should have been replaced with potatoes that matched a filet or the price tag. Okra was overcooked and barely there.
Overall, it was an ok experience but a bit much for the quality of the dishes. Let’s not even discuss the fee for using a card instead of cash. It’s 2025, no one uses cash. Recoup the cc processing fee elsewhere.

One part of our anniversary celebration . We started with drinks cranberry cinnamon bourbon we both had the stuffed chicken with asparagus over the ravioli my husband loved the sauce he said it’s very familiar ended with the fudge brownie everything taste great. Unfortunately I only have a photo of my drink because when our meals came we forgot to take photos. I blame the drinks good conversation and atmosphere but good thing is we will most definitely will be back .

Went to the Dumbwaiter with friends for the first time ahead of a show at the Seanger Theater & we were not disappointed! We split a number of appetizers our favorite of which was the Brussel sprouts- holy cow were they delish & it was a HUGE portion size! Would definitely order them again. The Caesar salad was also delish & the pork rinds were good but we wouldn’t order them again as the pimento cheese was served warm which wasn’t very appealing to us. Our waitress wasn’t very friendly to us or the table next to us which put a little bit of a damper on things but, we really enjoyed the meal itself as well as the ambience, it’s a beautiful restaurant in a convenient location!

Overall not a good experience. Our server did not explain the menu or tell us about any specials or off menu items. My partner’s scallops were raw in the middle so we sent them back. They sent back the exact same plate which had clearly been microwaved. The vegetables were completely hammered and the scallops way over seasoned. I had an Old Fashioned which was mixed and garnished poorly. The short ribs were very good however. At these prices I expected an enjoyable evening. What I got was the same as a night out at Chili’s.

Our waiter Corey was amazing. Hostess was scattered and the cutting board (lamb) my husband had was just ok which was not good when the meal cost $50. I had herb chicken and it was pretty good. The appetizer was greatly good we had fried green tomatoes

We were traveling through town and decided to stay the night and found this awesome spot. They had plenty of great choices on the menu and our waitress Hailey did an amazing job. The brussel sprouts are an absolute must. Steak and fish were both cooked to perfection. We will definitely be back! Thank you all.

Our waitress Haley was awesome. She fit the mood with our party and cracked jokes with us and very helpful when we had questions. The food was delicious, but I will say the portions doesn’t fit the price. I gave 3 ⭐️ bc they only have 1 restroom and it was a line to use it.

New to the restaurant scene in Downtown Mobile and it was excellent. It can get a little noisy since the seating is tight but the food is awesome. The fresh cornbread and pork rinds are a nice treat while you wait for your first course. Drink menu looks tasty but have not attempted yet. Sister restaurant is in Fairhope, AL. They have fresh catch and fresh butcher cuts daily. I tried the rack of lamb this time but my table also had a great Cesar salad and there take on shrimp and grits. Service was super fast and all the dishes were perfect. Don’t let the noise keep you away, try this place and add to the fun. Make sure you call ahead for a reservation, not required but you will wish you had.
