    We were in mobile for the day n exploring the fort area. Lunch time n were hungry n found noble south w a southern menu n thought we'd try it. Lovely restaurant . Nice bright n airy w friendly welcoming staff. Clean restrooms. We had the deviled egg which tasted really good. The soup of the day which was like a gumbo w okra n andouille sausage n cornbread. Tasted good . The southern corn bread tasted a lil dry. Had 2 smashy B's - one w kale salad n one w fried potatoes. They tasted good. And fried catfish w cornbread n fried Brussels sprouts. Fried Car fish is a southern specialty n tasted good n so did the Brussels sprouts which was crispy n good, Tx u for a great lunch.

    You have outdone yourself, Noble South! From farm to table, from table to mouth, Now that I've had it, I don't wanna live without. I had the pesto chicken with beets on the side, The bartender, Zac, was a perfect food and beverage guide. With Natalie and Jess serving up delicious plates on the fly. This experience had my body, thankful to be alive. Oh and the ambiance was a total vibe.

    Stopped by here for lunch. I'll start off by saying that I would give it a 4.5 but can't do halves. The service was good and attentive. The dining area is nice but needs a little attention as some of the ceiling tiles are loose with open gaps in the ceiling. Small detail but this is an upscale place. I ordered the catfish with potatoes and greens. The sides were great and the catfish was good but looked to be a little overcooked and dark. The dish came with two dipping sauces which both elevated the experience. One of the sauces was mustard based and amazing. Overall good food at a fair price for lunch. I have not tried dinner yet.

    Top notch, dining experience with excellent food and service! The duck confit was like something I've never eaten before which I guess is true... it was quite the culinary experience!!

    The service was terrific! We had Zach. The food was wonderful except the casserole.. it was SO salty my dad who LOVES salty food couldn't handle how salty the casserole was.I'm not sure if it's like that.Every time but it was like that for us. Its a very small dining room and loud so if your going for a meeting or work lunch. I would recommend some place else. Over all. I would go back. The dining room is very open and beautiful. Just keep your party to 4 or less. Also, look at the plates. I loved that homie feel they gave super cute.

    This place is kinda hidden. The service was top notch! I was really looking hard at the motley crew in the kitchen, as I was sure Gordon Ramsey had to be among them! The food was that delicious! The decor is very complimentary to the old building it's in. The whole experience was amazing! Definitely going to head back here on our next trip through! Fresh! Clean! Delish!

    I'm from out of town, but I've been here twice now because the first time was so excellent. Located in downtown Mobile, this cozy restaurant boasts inspired and creative dishes made with local and seasonal ingredients. The chefs here really understand flavor profiles. We had knockout dish after knockout dish. The chicken parmesan sausage dish has hands down been one of my top 5 memorable meals this entire year. I found myself thinking about that dish days after. Oh and the desserts--oh my. Now I'm a sucker for cookies, and the brown butter pecan cookie with the peach semifreddo was so good I had to go complement the chef. And he was so thankful, I was gifted another cookie! I couldn't believe it (but literally felt like a kid in the candy -- or cookie -- store.). This restaurant has been consistently spot on! I love it. Shout out to my server Sara who was phenomenal! Service is always important to me, and she went above and beyond for us!

    Food was excellent. The black catfish was amazing. The brussels sprouts was my second favorite. Sweet potato soup and cucumbers were good and cornbread was phenomenal

    Quaint small restaurant in downtown Mobile. Excellent for lunch, a quiet meeting place. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and willing to go the extra mile. They have some unique cocktails available - the staff recommend one for my wife which she enjoyed. We shared an order of pickled shrimp which were nicely seasoned and served with crackers. I had a seafood sausage sandwich which had an aioli to die for and a cup of creamy cauliflower soup. My wife had a short rib sandwich with truffle aioli which she thoroughly enjoyed. This restaurant was featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive Ins and Dives and it lived up to the billing. Definitely a place to try if you're driving by Mobile!!

    We had an 11:00 am reservation for lunch on 02/16/24. We did not receive a friendly/welcoming greeting by the hostess. For a snack appetizer we ordered the Deviled Eggs. We have had better. They are mayo dominant to say the least. Moving on to the entrees. My wife ordered the fried catfish with mac & cheese and cornbread. She would have liked her catfish to have been seasoned better. She was impressed with the mac and cheese as it did not need any additional seasoning. She usually has to add salt/pepper to her mac and cheese when we eat out. She did not care for the heirloom cornbread. I ordered the beef tips and rice with 3 sides. My sides were the cauliflower bisque, glazed carrots, and heirloom cornbread. The beef tips and rice were very good. I would describe it as being more of a beef stew than a traditional beef tips and rice. The cauliflower bisque was excellent. However, this is where they dropped the ball. I asked our server who I believe was Micah R. based on our receipt did it have shellfish in it. She said she would check. She did not think it did. She never followed up to confirm. This is a major training issue. Food allergies are a real thing. A restaurant should now how their dishes are made and be able to communicate it immediately. I liked the heirloom cornbread. I ate the rest of my wife's. She ate the rest of my cauliflower bisque as I did not want to have an ER visit. The glazed carrots were good. The ambiance was nice.

Dark wood interiors, cobblestone streets right outside, and big windows that flood the room with natural light create the perfect backdrop for a relaxed and elegant meal. The food is outstanding. Classic New Orleans inspired flavors meet Gulf Coast freshness. The crab-topped benedict with silky hollandaise is rich and satisfying, and the crispy potatoes are cooked to perfection. Paired with fresh coffee and warm service, it is a brunch that feels special from the first sip to the last bite. Service was excellent also! If you are looking for a place in Mobile that blends history, charm, and unforgettable food, Bistro Saint Emanuel is a must. #EatSipTravel

I arrived at my hotel, I was tired, and just wanted a bite that wasn't a. fast food or b. catered to tourists. Debris delivered and then some. First, it's my type of place: dive bar with tables. Not all over-decorated. The moment you walk in, you feel like you're in a local tavern. No one was at the door but they saw me and just let me take a seat. The menu came over, the table was a little sticky, and they came and wiped it even though I said not to bother, I'm fine. The menu: Drinks are a bit limited. Good selection of bottles, rather limited on tap, but I found a good brew. And for food, you can't go wrong. Obviously, with the name, I chose a Po Boy - the standard Debris with the beef and au jus. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for that elegantly massive hulk. Dripping in its jus, which I still sopped up off my plate. Oh, I could easily eat a second one of those no matter how full I am. Sinfully good. I wish my conference didn't feed me so much, or I would have come back here every night. I did my best to recommend it to everyone else who was looking for lunch or dinner. And I am 100% recommending it to you.
