We here for lunch with my family of six. Immediately a gentleman combined two tables and pulled up chairs. My 2.5 year old was cooped up from our road trip and wandered around the restaurant while we waited for the pizza. No one seemed bothered by him. The waitress and locals were very friendly and the pizza was AMAZING! If we ever travel thru we will definitely stop again.

If you like a simple, fast place to grab really good food, this is the place. Your menu option is: chicken fingers. Your only decisions: How many? Platter or sandwich? And what dipping sauce. But the chicken is always the same, and always fantastic.

The service was Great. We ate at the grill and ordered sushi off the menu. Turtle was our Chef. He is outstanding to watch cook and very friendly. My wife loves the Bama Roll.

Had the bbq sampler and I was amazed that the cook allowed the plate to leave the kitchen. Pulled pork: dry and unchewable. Brisket: dry and tasteless. Ribs: passable but dry as well. Side were average as well. Most of the plate was uneatable, not sure how they stay in business. Bad. Seemed like the bbq was days old and should never have been served. Really pissed me off.

I was so excited about having a Mexican restaurant near me. But the salsa was horrible. It ruined the entire meal for me. If the salsa is bad, I won't go back. They do have kareoke and that's nice. The staff was polite. But I couldn't get past the bad salsa. Sadly I won't go back.

The food is good, but I've had mixed experienced with customer service. I went once with a small group and we sat for atleast 10 minutes without ever being acknowledged (We got fed up and ate elsewhere) but I've also been and had decent service. Try to avoid around lunch as it can be quite busy and if entering from schillingers road, be prepared for a ridiculously steep entrance.

My job is nearby so I have an opportunity to eat at Arby's at Schillingers and Moffett on a semi-regular basis. The staff does a great job of greeting customers as they enter and thanking on their way out. They are also cordial, friendly and when they get to know you, address you by name. The quality of their sandwiches are always served hot, fresh and delicious. My favorite is the Ruben. Hot fresh corned beef pilled high with sauerkraut, thousand island dressing and marbled rye bread. Ring the bell on your way out and watch them light up. I would encourage anyone to stop in for a great meal and enjoy outstanding customer service.

Food tasted horrible. Had fried rice, shrimp and lobster sauce, and egg drop soup. Won't be back! The egg in the soup wasn't even done!
10. Midtown Donuts

We’ve passed this shop for several years while traveling to and from the Florida and Mississippi Gulf Coast saying I bet they have good donuts. Finally this year we stopped.
It’s an old drive in painted red with a sign out front saying hand cut donuts. While not sure what a hand cut donut is I can tell you I will be back while traveling both ways through Mobile AL on every trip going forward.
The cake donuts are perfectly cakey with a crisp glazed exterior and a soft interior and were perfect.
The apple fritter must have weighed a pound - or at least it was definitely hefty - and had a perfectly crisp outside and a deliciously, soft, apple flavored inside.
This is by far my second favorite donut shop in the USA that we have visited. Not gourmet but great. Not fancy, just immaculately clean. Don’t be deceived by the building exterior just go there.
Oh, I forgot to mention they were cheap, had a good selection and extremely friendly!
