My family has visited Gelato Joe's for many years. The first time we went the food, service, and…read moreatmosphere was incredible. We were welcomed like family. Over the years we have seen a steady decline in the upkeep of the restaurant, the service staff checking on customers and the food quality. The one item that has gone up exponentially is the cost of everything on the menu. We have continued to spend money here out of some false sense of nostalgia in hopes to see this place rebound. The picture I have included is a broken dish our food was served in. Luckily it was noticed before anyone in our party cut their hands on the protruding shards. The only reason I am giving this review 3 stars is because the live music performance by The Heat at the time we stopped in kept us there. I highly recommend looking them up and planning a night out to see them.

Amazing Place!! If…read moreyou're looking for great Italian food, Gelato Joe's is a must! Our server (John) was fantastic. I ordered Joes Lasagna and it was so delicious. I selected the strawberry salad which was also terrific. Our family loved this place. For dessert, they had a dozen plus flavors of gelatos and pastries. We also tried their cannolis. There was one chocolate dipped cannoli left and I fully believe no cannoli should be left alone. If you've never had a chocolate dipped cannoli in your life, you'll experience the same life changed moment I went through after taking my first bite. If you're in Foley or nearby, this is the place to eat at if you're in the mood for Italian food. It was worth every penny we spent.

It's been 6 years since my 4 star and gotta report that this spot is a solid 5 and continuing to…read moreimpress!!! ​My honey and I were already regular locals back then, but over the years they have somehow continue to kick things another level when you're not paying attention :-); The Philly cheesesteaks are still the absolute gold standard around here, which is saying a lot coming from someone who used to live right in Philadelphia and knows the real deal. I have a few faves like the cheesy mushrooms and the BBQ shrimp, and nowadaya you can't just look at the regular menu. You have to check out their daily specials board because they are constantly knocking it out of the park with creative new dishes and fresh catches. ​The atmosphere is just even more welcoming, but the outdoor seating is much improved with some sand and stage, perfect for enjoying the coastal breeze. They updated their operating hours too, so they are now open daily from 11 AM to 10 PM. Whether you want to escape the usual tourist trap seafood lines, watch a game on their big screens, or just grab a ice cold beer, or really strong drink, with friendly folks, this place just keeps getting better. If you haven't been by lately, you are seriously missing out. Highly recommended!!! 5/26/26

This small restaurant with an outside patio is nestled away under the parkway. The decor is super…read moreeclectic making a look around very interesting....motorcycle patches on a wall, a mermaid mural on another. Very cool. Lots of local pics. There is a bar and several TVs around so a good place to watch sporting events. Which was good for us because we visited while the college world series was on. Able 2 follow 2 different games on different tvs. I ordered the beef quesadilla and hubby ordered the shrimp dish. Both were 5 ! The place was packed. Service was a bit slow, but the Barkeep was also waiting tables whole handling a full bar. Respect to him. Definitely will go back on our next trip to Gulf Shores.

This is an alright sandwich joint with sandwiches that remind me a bit of a poboy... but they…read moredefinitely ain't poboys. When it comes to sandwiches in the area this place is definitely better than all the chain sandwich joints that all all around Lower Alabama. I wasn't really a fan of their burger here so I wouldn't get that again but the other sandwiches are ok. I rarely find myself craving a sandwich when I'm in Lower Alabama as their is so much good seafood I'm typically going to be eating that instead. If you do find yourself in the need for a sammie then this place might just work for you. I do have a YouTube video review of this joint on the NOLA Gent channel you can check out as well.

Staff wasn't very pleasant. Finally, I didnt get what I ordered, my steak sandwich was given to me with chicken instead of steak, the pickles I ordered on my sandwiches were missing (my receipt says I want pickles) Why does it seem places like this can't ever get the orders right? First time at this location, last time at this location. Best part about this chain is the causes it supports, and is the only reason I will continue to go. Very disappointed.
