    We stopped by The Waterfront on our way home from the beach in FL. Hadn't gotten enough seafood and fellow Yelpers helped us find this hidden gem. It's literally on the Bay, with excellent views, a classy but casual decor and outstanding food. Easy to get to just off I-10. We had the jalapeño corn bread, fried shrimp and oysters, along with side salads. Our server was in training but both were very friendly and accommodating. Only slight downer was it took a bit to get our check. Overall we had an outstanding experience and it's a repeater for us on our next trip!

    The manager Cori is the best, she got us to a table right away! We sat at bar first and had an appetizer and a fabulous bushwacker with Sarah and she was a doll!! Both of the bartenders were awesome! They made sure we had everything we needed, 1 was even sick but she did a good job! Once Cori got us seated outside, and it was beautiful overlooking the water, a young lady was our server, she was nice. I had a salad and the citrus salad dressing tasted like oil and vinegar, it was awful. I had the blackened ribeye sandwich and although the steak was very tender whatever it was dressed in was horrific! I never complained but I know if I would have Cori would have fixed it. Everyone else loved their food!

    The views are spectacular. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. Fresh catch of the day options as well as a wide variety of food offerings with an elevated twist. The flounder was just ok-not a big fan of the breading-but the homemade key lime aioli was delish.

    Food was delicious ! Service was prompt & friendly. Nothing beats sitting on the outdoor covered deck viewing Mobile Bay !

    I was delightfully surprised by the quality, speed, and service I recieved at this unassuming little place. My food was great, one of the better eats i've had on my stay, and the desserts were incredible. My server, Dakota, and the other staff that assisted us were lighthearted and humorous and served our every need. I definitely recommend.

    The food was delicious, the service outstanding, and the view amazing. The cup of gumbo was some of the best I've ever had - several whole shrimp in the cup, rich and flavorful.

    Great food, atmosphere and drinks. The cobia fish of the day over wild rice and vegetables was on point! The restaurant is on the bay, beautiful sunsets. Great little hidden gem on the bay. 10/10!!

    Went for lunch, it was quiet and the views were great. The food was decent. Server was kind but felt a bit rushed.

    Here on a work trip and back at this great place. The food is so good and the service is always amazing. Is such a beautiful day for sitting outside and the ambiance is casual and perfect for solo eating and groups. I will be back

    I came here for dinner when they opened at 5 so I could guarantee myself a spot overlooking the water. It was great timing on my part. I watched all those fish jumping while I enjoyed several appetizers and a drink. It was beautiful. Great place to enjoy the sunset too!

    We arrived around 4:15 pm and were greeted by 3 lovely young ladies and we requested to be seated outside. This was our first visit and the view did not disappoint! While we were waiting on our food the birds put on a show. Kennedy our server was extremely friendly and on top of her game. I had the shrimp tacos blackened and the mango salsa was delicious! My friend had the special which was the cheeseburger and he said the beef was fresh ground and fully covered. He will definitely order again. One of the best cheeseburger's he has had. Because of the service and the view we will be back to try other great food!!! FYI, looking at our check they do charge a Credit Card Surcharge of (3.00%). We asked but our server said no, so I am giving her the benefit that she was not aware.

We went for the first time the day after they opened. They were slammed and they provided great service, really doing a great job with the volume of people that were there. The second visit was several weeks later and the service seemed to have slipped, even with it being much less busy - they were busy, just nothing like opening weekend. The food was solid, but if you have ever read any of my reviews, you know I like food that is supposed to be hot to be hot. That just was not the case. Here's the thing. You order at the counter, and food is brought to you. Food was being prepped and then sitting with no heat source for a while in many cases - you could see when the food was ready to be picked up. I wanted to just try the biscuit, so after we were all done eating I ordered a single biscuit. It took 28 minutes, in a biscuit restaurant - one single biscuit. When it came to me (finally) there was no butter or spread on the side. I asked for both and I believe they only had one jelly option. That is also very confusing to me. Seems like you would have a variety of really cool jams and jellies. They have some interesting biscuit concepts, but when you spend $100 for 6 people to eat biscuits and 5 of them are in high school, you really need to deliver on your concept. It is a great concept and I am sure the location will execute. I would note that since the closing of Ed's Seafood Shed on the hill in Spanish Fort, this is the only other good option for breakfast besides Chick-Fil-A and Waffle House.

It is convenient to both the locals who call Daphne, Alabama home and the travelers cruising down Interstate 10. The Fresh Market is a supermarket geared more towards a higher end experience, more of a food destination type foodie-driven kind of place and their prices reflect that (although they will run sales). The meat department is good, as is the deli. Their Market things have some items you might not find in supermarkets like Publix or Winn-Dixie. All in all, I would recommend a visit here.

    What an amazing shopping experience here today. First time visiting The Fresh Market but it will…read morenot be my last time It's just so weird that I've seen these stores around and never perused them. Here in Alabama as a Hurricane Ida evacuee, I decided to buy some Rao's pasta sauce on sale. Yeah, I was making big mama spaghetti at the hotel lol. I like tomato basil as it's excellent for lasagna and penne pasta dishes. Bolognese, Italian sausage, mushroom & bell pepper and Italian sausage & mushroom are my favs. Haven't tried the vodka sauce yet but I will. I normally make my tomato sauce from scratch like in The Godfather but I was pressed for time lol. So, this store has a ton of organic and fresh food products. Their meat department has friendly employees willing to help you with any questions about the enormous display of meats & seafood and if you need need fresh cuts of meats, they got you. I love that they still have butchers in this supermarket. I also love that there's a mix of meats like crab cakes, stuffed pork chops, tempura shrimp, stuffed duck and salmon burgers. Oh and the deli is also desirous with all sorts of pre-made lunches and dinners. Everything looked so tantalizing The store is a bit pricey but I love the variety of foods offered and great quality items. Reminds me of Kings Supermarket in Garden City, NY. So, for the reason of my visit: Rao's was only $5.99 and I bought 20 jars...yeah, it's just that amazing plus it's like $9.00+ a jar at other local grocers. This is the only store that regularly has it for $5.99. Oh and I'm a tea connoisseur and they keep a large variety of that as well as coffee. Needless to say, I'm a new fan and currently visit the St. Charles' store regularly. Try them, you'll be hooked.
