   We have been to the Wash House on multiple occasions. Great location and atmosphere perfect date location. Our server was excellent attentive without being annoying. The food was on this visit was average. The bread that was put out in the table was very crumbly and cold, butter was hard as a rock. The steak tarter was very good yet not enough crustinis. My wife got the steak which was cooked perfectly. I got the sea food pasta which was mediocre at best. The shrimp were extremely small, lobster non existent and crab meat was just ok. The pasta however was terrible , too thick , barely cooked al dente just very disappointing. Dessert which we only got one was a crème brûlée my wife said was good. The Wash house is definitely a gem in Fairhope it just has become hit or miss.

   I ordered lobster bisque and crab cakes. Bisque was barely warm and crab cakes were bready lacking crab. My wife ordered shrimp and grits. Shrimp were ok but grits were mush. Our waiter was outstanding.

   I enjoyed a seat at the bar for dinner and Paige was my bartended and server. Outstanding service and such a pleasant person with whom to converse during dinner. Wyatt made a good wine recommendation and the special ribeye dinner was very good. You'll love this place, for the food and atmosphere, but the people who always make me feel welcome.

   The attention to detail is unmatched! Due to a dairy allergy, my husband cannot normally order a steak as they are prepped with butter. On his birthday they cut a special piece and set it a side for him. Both of our meals were beyond amazing. Can’t wait to come back! Thank you, Wyatt!

   Our server, Jake, was amazing. He was fun and had great recommendations. We ordered many of the specials for Valentine’s Day and the Wagyu Ribeye was to die for!

    My husband and I went for Valentine’s Day for our first time. We were excited to try it because for 20+ years all we have heard is go eat at the Washhouse. It was not the experience that everyone tells us about. The earliest appt (although booked a month ago) was at 8:15pm. Our waitress did not greet us. We were given our menu no words exchanged. We were sat in the very back room which I later found out is not where you want to sit. Waitress comes back and asks what drinks we want. We get the drinks about 15 mins later. About 20 more minutes go by and she comes back to get our order. No personality, no explanation of the dishes, nothing. At this point my husband had finished his cocktail. She doesn’t ask if he wants another, writes our order down and leaves the table. Another 15 minutes go by- no sign of the waitress. The food is brought out and it isn’t until after the food is delivered that he requests another drink - as she did not ask him. Food was good but nothing special. The manager checked on several of the other tables but not ours. There was no synergy with employees and we felt isolated in our corner. We chalked it up to it was a bad day/time to go I guess. Failed our expectations.
