Best Restaurants for Groups in Fairhope

Our entrees were delicious and our server, Derrick, was very attentive. The ambiance was lovely and we enjoyed our experience.

The food was the best we’ve had since moving to Navarre. It was so good that there wasn’t a morsel left on a single plate. Out of our party of 5 we had the ahi poke, seared tuna, oysters on the half shell, shrimp, grouper piccata, swordfish oregenata, blue crab claws, praline basket, crème brûlée, and butter cake with apples. So we had quite the assortment from the menu. 3 of our party were teenagers who rarely eat fish, and they couldn’t stop eating till it was gone! The service was also great! I checked in with the hostess and we were immediately at our table that was already prepared for our reservation. Our waitress was knowledgeable and helpful and had a good rapport with our table. I can’t wait to go back!

We had planned this night out for several months as it would be our 47th wedding anniversary. Ruth Chris was not our first choice. We are new to the Mobile area and have been trying to find a special place just for those special occasions that call for a dining experience above and beyond the norm. To be honest, we we’re getting discouraged as most of the restaurants with top ratings had not met our expectations. I had made reservations At several different restaurants but was always unsatisfied with their menus. The food choices and descriptions never met my expectations. Finally, in a moment of despair, I thought of Ruth Chris, and did a search as I really didn’t know if there would be a Ruth Chris in the Mobile area. Surprisingly there was and I made our reservation and canceled the other, previously made reservations. Ruth Chris, as mentioned, was not at the top of my list. I’ve dined at a number of Ruth Chris restaurants, all around the US, including Miami, San Francisco, and NYC. The food and service was always good but never at the top of my list of best places to dine. The menu for the Mobile Ruth Chris seemed to be a cut above the other restaurants we had experienced as well as others we had been studying for this special night out. Well, the night finally arrived and then, the weather turned very bad, with a tornado watch and thunderstorms all around us. But we persevered and departed early in the hope that we might be seated early and that the weather would not spoil our evening out on the town. The rain made it tricky finding our way to Ruth Chris but upon arriving, we were very warmly welcomed in out of the stormy weather. The welcome was overwhelming and made us feel like regular dinners and part of the family. You expect a snobby attitude at such an elegant restaurant but our experience was completely at the opposite end of the spectrum. A very warm welcome and we were seated immediately, even though we were thirsty minutes early.

The server Sloan was amazing . It was his birthday and he suggested a sandwich which was a special boneless rib with white and normal bbq sauce. Everyone was super happy with their food.

Fantastic food. Beautiful presentation on the plate, fresh ingredients, bursting with flavor. Attentive service. Spacious restaurant. Noise level is low and conducive for a conversation.
