It was my husband's birthday so we chose The Wash House to have a birthday dinner. The parking was congested but found a place to park. We were running a little late but when we arrived they were ready to seat us. No waiting! Which is a godsend! We had a very small table but the restaurant was beautiful! We ordered Lemon Drop Martinis and appetizers of brie then had our entree which was their house speciality chateaubriand and it was outstanding. Also had dessert and everything we had was delicious! We had such a good meal at The Wash House! We will definitely be back!

Came to Orange Beach for a 25th anniversary getaway and a family member suggested The Wash House for a nice dinner! Fabulous recommendation! Food was delicious, beautiful presentation, and while the outside of the building is nothing special to look at, the inside atmosphere was intimate and the location of the restaurant is very scenic. The server was friendly, professional, and attentive. We left feeling satisfied, but not stuffed, and the prices was reasonable for the quality of food. Definitely a place I’d return to on a future trip to the area.

The service is outstanding from the minute you walk in. The ambiance is beautiful. The noise level was a bit high. The food was amazing, the beef spring rolls, wash house salad and filet was on point!
