Comfort southern food at it's Apex! Turnip greens, corn and crab soup, sweet potato casserole and chicken and dumplings. All outstanding! I had grilled whitefish and it was cooked perfectly. Mobile has so many hidden treasures, and this one is right up with the best. Fantastic service as well, in combination with that old diner feel. I'll be back for sure. This joint is definitely not just a hot dog spot, it's some of the best southern diner food you'll find anywhere.
I love eating locally and the Dew Drop Inn is just the place. As the oldest restaurant in Mobile they are doing something right. Of course I had to get their famous hot dog. It did not disappoint. A bright red dog with chili, kraut, mustard, ketchup and pickles hit the spot. The staff was as friendly as could be. So next time you're in Mobile drop in at the Dew Drop Inn. They are sure to please your palate.
Ok so don't get me wrong. It was good food and fast. But but I think the hotdogs are better when they are cold. The crab omelet was ok not at all what I was expecting not much food there. Service was good and fast
Walking in this building seems to carry you back in time. This is the oldest restaurant in town. It's a quaint little dinner that almost feels like home. I love the touch of the ads on the table tops. The service was fast and friendly. There are hooks for coats and the bathroom is surprisingly roomy. The Dew Drop Inn Hot Dog is surprisingly very good. The chili is surprisingly not runny and has a great flavor. I was worried the condiments may have been too much but all the flavors came together so nicely. The onions rings are delicious. They are kinda crispy and soft at the same time.
A great Mobile experience. Powell puts out the best dogs and onion rings in L A! A must do when in the area.
