    We had the Mother's Day brunch and most of the food was very good. We both had the filet and it was very tasty, but the side of cubed fried potatoes with it was somewhat bland. The she-crab soup was very good, the caesar salad was just ok, the key lime desert was very good, and the bread pudding was a little dry. All in all it was still a nice meal!

    The food was excellent. We had a small hiccup with the reservation but the restaurant manager did a great job of getting the issue resolved. The value for the amount of food you received was amazing. We will be back again!

    I usually don’t do poor reviews. But we were very disappointed in our experience. The food was not as advertised, the seafood scampi was not good and my steak was not to my order. Seafood was not fresh and the house pasta was not homemade. My steak was over cooked and seemed to be reheated. We have our usual places to visit but wanted to try a different place. We hope that things get better for Bistro St. Emanuel.

    Our servers Crowe and Alicia made our experience a winning one. Tucked away in a quiet section of Mobile - Bistro St. Emanuel offers a diverse menu, a great bar selection and an ambience that is understated by elegant. This is a well kept secret that I'm happy to have stumbled upon. Will definitely return again.

    The address in Open Table in NOT correct, the correct Address is 157 St Emanuel St. The place is a great place to go with a date or a few friends, the ambience is very nice and the food was superb. We love it.
