I have been a customer here for YEARS. I have never had a bad meal here. Some may be better than others but never a bad one. Chef Dave is a good guy and demands highest of standard from his people. They can get busy at times for this reason which could add a little wait time. If you want good food this is the spot in this area! read more

Great wings, they like cash so that's a plus music on some nights great place, friendly staff

Service was terrible sat for 15 minutes before they even took my name and then proceeded to walk off without telling us a wait time or anything read more

here is his facebook retort today. per David Mogil - Really try ribeye was pink all the way thru and had the filet been sent back only i pro probably would have re-cooked it but when you sent back the ribeye and a fillet, it was like you know I just don't have time and I work my ass off and I don't need to get abused by you with your sarcasm and your anger and your bullshit you can go fuck yourself again now I said it the only abuse was you sending back a perfectly cooked ribeye that sat on a plate that was hot so it went out. It was medium, medium, rare, and anyone that sent back a one temp overcooked steak is an asshole. And I just love how it becomes about the poor waitress that fucked up the order. It didn't say I want pink, but not bloody instead of medium to medium well and by the way there was pink left in the fillet and that's another reason why I said I'm not cooking again for you. I been doing this way too long tired of getting abused by folks good luck sir ! read more

Service is terrible waited 20 minutes never got seated they let people go before us and did not even let us know they were taking names then proceeded to take everyone's name except ours read more

My husband and I have waited awhile to go out on a date here since moving from up north. While it did take longer than I would have liked to be asked if we wanted a drink while sitting at the bar, once served our drinks were great and our food once delivered was hot and tasted great! The only thing I will say seemed at little off was our bill (with tip) was $195! That seems quite steep for two people eating wings and only having two drinks. Now, we both got a hat, but no one even told us how much they were and no one even knew who made them. If you're selling someone's merchandise, your staff should know who makes it. All in all, it was a good date night and we will be back. We will just be more mindful of checking our bill next time. read more

We've never had anything bad at Damn Yankees! The food is always amazing. The Cajun oysters are my husband's favorite.

Great food, service and very attentive! Dave and crew are great people! Will definitely return and recommend to everyone.

Service was super slow, under staffed! Don't waste your time going here! Cleanliness not a priority either!

So glad we stopped by here. What a gem!!!! Our bartender/server was spot on perfect. The pricing was spot on perfect. The food was soooooo good. read more

DamnYankees - Seafood Near Me - Heflin, Alabama

So let's start with the good ! The server was really great and attentive. Wasn't her fault it took them an hr to bring our food out . I had a fried chicken plate with home fries and veggies. The chicken was ok not great . The veggies very bland but the fries were really good . My husband had a burger and said it was the worst one he's had so as far as we can see don't get the burger or chicken plates . Maybe the steak and Oysters is where they excel but we didn't have that . Also had the cheese curds and they were pretty good my husband really liked the sauce with it ! But the wait for the food to come out was pretty ridiculous. We got there right when they opened and not too many people there yet by the time we were leaving there was a long wait for people !! read more

Food was good. Service was good and the atmosphere was good as well. Kyle our server was very informative about the area.

This is an absolutely amazing stop!!! We had a party of 8 with one very young and every meal was perfect for all. Service was excellent, the Old Fashioned was a perfect drink, the fried pickles, onion loaf and cheese fries were excellent! Blackened shrimp, chicken cordon blue, Shrimp Alfredo, Grilled Ruben were all perfect! We are coming back in 2 days! More pictures to come. read more

The place was busy but not crazy. One server said that they were short staffed. Lost tickets and food not getting to the tables.....the couple next to us ordered food that never came. They were sitting there long before us and we finished eating and was served something he didn't order. Food was ok. Servers were very nice and considering all....were on the ball. The cook seemed to be very frustrated.....we were seated directly in front of the kitchen and watched the craziness. read more

Great services Food was great i recommend the Vodoo pasta Shout out to dave. Made us feel like home read more

UPDATE: we had amazing service and the food, as per usual, was delicious! Great happy hour drink prices and week-night specials. Tried the sweet heat wings for the first time and they were fantastic - no dipping sauce needed! Hot wings were definitely hot but still flavorful. Shrimp po boy was amazing! If you like sweet/fruity drinks, try the pixie stick margarita. And the oysters, all varieties, can't be beaten. read more

Yummy!! I had the Shrimp and Grits. They were not highly seasoned (I had to add salt) but they were very smooth creamy and cheesy. This came with mixed vegetables. While they tasted delicious they did need to be warmer. My husband had the Chicken Fried Steak. We think we actually heard them pounding the steak. I always think of CFS being served with mashed potatoes and gravy. There was not mashed potatoes on the menu. The gravy tasted good but did need some work. We were staying at the RV park and got a 10% discount on our ticket. Robert was our waiter. read more

Turned around on interstate to visit for lunch on Saturday when all hours posted rejected as open. Get here and closed.

We needed to park our camper overnight and it just so happened that this camping spot also had a steakhouse (same owner) to have some good reviews. We ended up with an acceptable hookup spot for the night although paying more than the going rate as we were not paying in cash. The wait to be seated in the restaurant was crazy and we gave up after 20 minutes of not even eye contact from the 2 servers or what appeared to be the owner working the bar and and maybe 5 tables we decided to sit at the bar if only for me to have a drink. I ordered a margarita. Blah. Got the onion loaf as we were hungry and it had good reviews. As for food, I will stop there as that was the only good bite we had. While we waited and waited for anyone to take our order I watched 2 young ladies wander the tables with little to no sense of urgency while the owner went from customer to customer at the bar and the tables hurrying to explain he has no help as nobody doesn't wants to work anymore, instead just keep on getting things for free. I have crisscrossed the country twice in the past 6 months twice and tried to eat in small local spots wherever possible understanding the struggle in keeping their doors open and staffing for indoor dining. We have undoubtedly waited for a seat or our meals to arrive, but the food was worth the wait and the owners and staff seemed to appreciate our understanding. Once seated at the bar the tone of the owner regarding the treatment of the staff that was present all came into focus. Why the staff and patrons need to know the political position of this owner I cannot be sure, but apparently it is something he is proud of. Then do everyone a favor and hang it high and proud out front of your restaurant and RV Park. This tells a customer and a potential employee some important information about you and your business before they bother to walk through your door. I for sure would have preferred to honor a business who values it's customers and it's employees and kept on driving 2 stars for pull through camp spot with electric and the onion loaf read more

I'm a truck driver and was stopping on the side of the highway beside this restaurant to use the restroom and stretch my legs for a second when a man walks around the side of the restaurant facing the highway where my truck is located. He picks up a rock off the ground and throws it and hit my truck. I then rolled down the window to see why he has done this and he yells people are sleeping here. I started to explain as he proceeds to call me a Nigger. I then called the police due to there being a dent left in my trailer just to find out that he is the owner of this restaurant. I recommend any fellow truckers looking for a bite to eat or a place to go to the restroom to not stop here at this establishment and support him in any financial way, this could've ended badly so just wanting to warn anyone else who may not fit the description of the customer he's looking for. read more

We went Wednesday night. It was wing night and karaoke night. It was not busy. It took the bartender 15 minutes to make the first margarita we ordered. It was another 15 minutes before we were asked if we wanted to order appetizers. The food was okay but the service was terrible. Had to ask for the check and a box and finally just went up to pay. When we said something to the server/bartender she said she was busy. The restaurant was left than half full and had at least 4 servers. We will not return. read more

Service was great. Had fried catfish. It was average, nothing special. Me and the misses, $85 on Saturday afternoon. Probably wont return soon at that price read more

So delicious and server are very nice. Food are not salty and yammy. It is really good place to eat! read more

We stayed in their RV lot out back for a reasonable price and had a fantastic meal inside the restaurant. Seriously had the best fried catfish I've ever eaten. Is was more like tempura. The owner sat with us for a while. He's from the NE so maybe a bit brash for the locals but we enjoyed his company. Great menu, great bar good stop for the night. We were there in September of 2020. read more

I looked at all the reviews. Where there is fire there is smoke and where there is smoke there has been fire. This place seems to really have some concerning experiences from patrons. Look at every one star review and see the common thread. This is the only time I have ever decided to not even try a restaurant just because of contents about the working environment of the staff and the behavior of the owner. Read this - really unbelievable. No way all these negative reviews from such a diverse set of reviewers can all have similar elements based on their experience at the place unless largely accurate. I will keep passing until I see several reviews suggesting these behaviors have changed. read more

Passing through on road trip 2023, we look for great spots to try on this annual adventure. Dave and crew rocked it !!! From incredible hospitality of the owner, to Chicken the bar manager to fabulous food! A 5 freakin plus!! The only thing that could have been better was to smoke a cigar on the patio with Dave if we had more time. read more

My newest place to come eat. Each time I come here, I am pleasantly surprised of all the different offerings on the special's board. The food is always consistently good. The best thing, which I was hesitant to try, was the baked Cajun oysters, but it was literally the best thing I have eaten there! The bartender was also extremely helpful in recommending drinks and the PJ&J shot was delicious as was the Sangria. If you are in this area, you definitely need to try this place! read more

Food is always delicious!! Great oysters, shrimp and grits, and the rack of lamb is to die for!!! Fun place that sometimes has great live music and the staff is always so welcoming and fun!! Special shout-out to Devon for being so awesome!! She is definitely an asset to this place!! read more

We had a group of 4 guys and we wanted to have our first annual Christmas party at this restaurant. We got to the place at about 3 pm cst but they didn't officially open until 4. We asked if we could sneak in and the ladies wanted to but they couldn't, or so we thought. The owner came running outside and said can you give me 20 min. We said absolutely!! The owner and staff went above and beyond for us. The food!!! OMG the food was out of this world. My group had 2 of the Best Damn Burgers, a Pete Morrison, and I had the catfish sandwich and a side salad. The meals were out of this world. Fresh tasting, crisp veggies, the fries were hot and fresh and tasted so good. They have many food options to choose from and they're all so delicious. If you're in the area...STOP! You won't regret it at all!!! Thank you to the owner and staff!! read more

The owner is pathetic. The food is nothing special. Cold cup of coffee, baked oysters were cold, wings took 2 hours after ordering, all the the food came out extremely late and in varied shifts for our table. The owner/chef was complaining and yelling at all the employees (for no good reason), sexually harassing the wait staff and then doing no work and talking in the parking lot with friends about how he's aloud to talk shit about anyone because he is a Jew. Bizarre. Make a hard pass. read more

It wouldn't let me choose Zero stars So, tonight my husband and son decided to play cornhole and my daughter and I decided to head out to Damn Yankees. Hubby and I went there about 3 weeks ago and ordered filet mignon and it melted in my mouth like butter! It was so good. We told our daughter about it so that's what she wanted tonight. First of all, it was brought out on a cardboard school lunch tray(strike one). Who wants a $30-45 steak on a 25 cent cardboard tray. The outside of the steak looked almost like charcoal. The inside was a little on the rare side. She tried to cut into it and of course the outside was tough but then tasted it and so was the inside. It wasn't even seasoned well! She sent it back. One of our waiters asked if she wanted something else or wanted him to just refund it. She asked for a ribeye, thinking it would at least be more tender, and to season it more. It came out and the waiter got yelled at for trying to bring it out with real silverware. Dave sent him out with a plastic fork and knife!!! She cut into the second steak and it was slightly more tender than the first, but still not seasoned. I told her to forget it and we'd stop on the way home and get something for her to eat. My oysters were only mediocre but I didn't complain about them. The three waiters/waitresses went to talk to Dave about taking it off the ticket. We waited and they were back and forth talking to him about it. The result was we had to pay for the second steak but they could offer me a dessert. I refused the dessert and I asked to speak to Dave. The waitress went and told him and she was told to tell me that he was busy in the kitchen and to "F-/@? off". Needless to say I'm a red head and have the temper to go along with it. He came out of the kitchen and delivered a dessert to a table laughing and cutting up. I called his name and he came over. I told him that it wasn't my first rodeo and that I'd been eating his food for years. I've never had to send anything back and it was always delicious. I overlooked the fact that he's an @sshole bc he was such a good cook. He told me that the second steak was USDA prime and he didn't know what else to say about it and he said he'd rather it be under seasoned than over seasoned. He turned to walk away with me still trying to speak to him. He did turn back around to me when I told him I'd gladly "f___ off" and he'd never get another dollar from me. You just don't treat customers like that! You're a small business owner. If you disrespect customers you'll eventually you'll cut off your nose to spite your face. To top all this off "their credit card machine is broken" so we'd have to use the ATM. Dude, I heard the waitress last time we were there talking about him not willing to use the credit card machine. He makes everyone use the ATM. If everyone uses cash he doesn't have to claim it. Evidently jail time didn't do a thing for him. He's still the same @sshole he's always been and now I can't even forgive that bc of his cooking! Y'all help share and show everyone what he thinks about his customers! read more

The food was great! Whitney did a great job and Devon came by twice to check on us. Great place to stop by if your in Heflin Alabama

The Damn Yankees has food that is subpar. The weight staff is good. The kitchen yells during service. The worst part is they force and lie to their customers to pay cash even insisting the customers use some off brand ATM that will of course cost the customer more money but I am sure Damn Yankees is getting something off this archaic practice. In this current environment with Fraud risks being as they are, the card is the best way to purchase and be secure. I am never interested in dealing with that subpar place again, I would rather eat a sandwich. read more

The food was good. It just took a while to get our food. The server was very friendly and helpful.

Absolute best ribs in Bama even though the chef is from Chicago. But you're lucky because who else does true old style Chicago rubs? "Alabama Does". RTR read more

This is a terrific option for great food! Doesn't look like much... from the outside building. But, best steak I've had in years. Prime 8oz filet charred or Pittsburg style med rare. They aced it! Lots of options on the menu including many choices of homemade cheese cakes. You would never expect it but we really enjoyed our meal. Service was warm and welcoming too. Prices are an excellent value. Give them a try. Right off of I20, exit 199. At the Chevron Gas station. I'm telling you my steak was better than a Morton's Steakhouse! read more
