“ We love the ruby slipper. We make sure each Mardi Gras when we are in town we go there Sunday morning. The price, food and service is great. ”
“ yummm! amazing place! loved the decor and vibe! food was soooo good my mouth is watering writing this! great service and was very quick! mimosa flight was fun and tasty! loved the sugared bacon, eggs benedict was phenomenal. ”
“ Nice joint. Trendy. Eclectic decor. And, excellent food. We came here recently as we were in town for Wifey's graduation from USA. Go Jags! Wait was not bad for a Saturday around 1130ish. Maybe 20 minutes? Anyway, I would wait twice as long for this place. We had a party of six. Got the chicken sandwich (good), three little pigs omelet (good), sweet heat chicken and french toast bites (real good), southern breakfast (real good). I also got the grits with pepper jack cheese (unreal). Good variety on menu from sandwiches to bennies. Also, nice alcohol selection, though we didn't partake. Service was on point. Prices real reasonable. Cool, funky spot. Street parking. There was also a parking structure, but not sure if it was kosher to park there. We wish there was a Ruby Slipper closer to us than 2000 miles away. ”
“ Sweet Home Mobile Alabama Whenever you can order one my favorite desserts disguised as a breakfast entree, then I'm all in. The Banana Foster French Toast was straight from The Big Easy. Combine that with the 3 Little Pigs omelette and that made for a satisfying meal for the 2 of us. These 2 plates had enough protein to share while providing us a great sugar rush to get us down the road back home to Texas. The inside of the restaurant has that Dorthy from Kansas theme, ample tables for such a small restaurant and overall I consider this a hidden gem within the downtown area for good measure. The menu has a good assortment of interesting pancake options to select from and many creative egg plates. We used the call ahead feature although it was not terribly busy at 10am when we arrived. However, within the hour, a line of folks come in and the wait was on. ”
“ First time at The Ruby Slipper. Overall experience was good. Came in early so there was available seating for one. Ordered the french toast bites, mimosa flight and the trifecta. Here's my take on each: - french toast bites: TO DIE FOR! They're amazing, crunchy, great taste, not overpowering - mimosa flight: too sweet for my liking, but a great way to start your brunch - trifecta (more like a eggs benedict flight): presentation, taste, but two of my eggs were hard boiled eggs hence the 4/5. Other than that, amazing spot to go if you're in Downtown Mobile. Service was great, the hostess and my waiter were super sweet and amazing. ”
“ After finally making it to Mobile we were looking for a good brunch to grab some food at, long behold we fold Ruby Slipper. This location in downtown Mobile and it's a gem. Very New Orleans type of style to the place, from their food menu to the drinks. Very impressed with the menu, had a plethora of options. My wife and I got the same meal, it was a special Nashville Hot Chicken egg Benedict. While I do not like egg Benedict's I opted to swap out that style for scrambled which they were willing to do, kudos to our server she was great and helpful. The dish itself was amazing, chicken was crispy on a fresh biscuit topped with arugula and their Nashville sauce, blended perfectly with the eggs, drooling thinking about this meal. Definitely a must stop place if you're ever in downtown Mobile. ”
“ This was my first time trying this restaurant, and it was a great experience! We were greeted and seated immediately, of course we did beat the morning rush. We had a great service from start to finish. Food and drink were excellent! The biscuits were amazing!! If you get a chance to try this restaurant, please do so. ”
“ Very nice place. Located in the old Bank of Mobile building, this joint is very popular, although it originated from Mobile West, you may know it as New Orleans it has an Old Mobile feel to the place. I really love the breakfast menu. Eggs Benedicts abound. They are just what you'd expect to find offered on a Jazz Brunch Menu along the Gulf Coast. Everything I had was fantastic. There's so much here it's hard to know where one should begin. The coffee is really good, I believe I had a full pot. I'm sorry I didn't grab a bag before I left town. Maybe on future visits, I'll update my review with more details. ”
