Great service! The crab pie, crab and corn bisque both was delicious. The crabs were wonderful. We will definitely be back soon. I highly recommend Zirlott’s Gulf Products if you are looking for fresh seafood.

We drove down from TN and we always do a shrimp boil at every vacation spot. We decided to give Zirlott a try must say best seafood we have had and the most amazing customer service. We came down day after Thanksgiving they was closed and met us at location so we could get the BEST seafood around. We also got to try their crab dressing and it’s a must try as well if down this way during holidays. Customer service and Seafood was a 10 ⭐️. Pic in comments 🤤❤️

Saw a post that they had some stuffed flounder. I had asked if they had any flounder about a year ago, and they did not, but they would see about getting one and call. They did a day or so later and made some crab stuffing for me. It was all great!

Took a chance on ZIRLOTT'S since there were few reviews and pictures online. We were staying on Dauphin Island and Skinners is closed on Monday/Tuesday and the idea of losing 2 days of gorging on Gulf seafood at our rental was an abhorrent thought.
It was a short 20 minute drive from the island and easy enough to find. The small road that leads off the main highway ends at their property and there was a sign posted at the open gate to call first for the retail store before coming. This was understandable because the property has homes for the family on it as well and I would not want a bunch of tourists wandering around in cars where my kids play either. Regardless I called and they answered immediately letting me know where the store was once you passed the gate and were super friendly and welcoming on the phone.
We got there and the two women working there could not have been nicer and more helpful! I bought 50 Oysters to shuck (at an incredibly fair price of $35) and 2 lbs of shrimp. They have shrimp that are shelled(except for tail)/deveined or ones that only have heads removed so you can get them how you like. The non-shelled ones were only in 5 lb bags so I opted for the former due to my limited ice and storage. The oysters were great and very briney (which I like). They are farm raised so they are smaller than the wild Gulf ones I am used to but that's not a bad thing because the flavor seemed better and less sweet (more briney).
Again, I can't recommend the staff/owners enough. Very welcoming to my family should be an absolute no-brainer for anyone looking to get great local seafood at a fair price from a family operation.
Side note: if you are like me and forgot your oyster knife you can grab one at the small gas station by the 3 way highway intersection going to DI (mainland about 5-10 mins before the bridge). They had some with the bait/tackle stuff and it was only $7 for a basic one with poly handle (I prefer that over wood anyway).

You won't find anyone in this area with better seafood or customer service. Highly recommend Zirlott's.

We went here to get our seafood fix while on Dauphin Island. The seafood was awesome and everyone was very friendly. Would highly recommend this place. Just on the other side of the bridge.

I live 3 hours away but I had been looking at this place online for months because their stuff looked so good. Since We don't have any decent seafood markets in the Montgomery area, I decided to drive down once a month and make a bulk purchase. Considering Zirlotts, I sent a message asking what fish they get in on the regular. They read my message and gave No response. I asked again and they literally gave a one word response. Flounder. This is how they treated me after I told them I'd be coming in from out of town Monthly to make large purchases. No thanks. They have too much competition for anyone to deal with their garbage customer service.

This place is amazing. Everything there is caught by the family and made by hand. They are great people, so if you want freshly caught seafood, go check them out!

Absolutely the best seafood and customer service on the coast. And the view makes me not want to leave. If you need seafood, these are the people you want to see.
Deliciously prepped seafood for any meal! Our favorites include the crab quiche, crab cakes, bacon wrapped stuffed shrimp, stuffed crabs, all of it. Coupled with the beautiful scenery surrounding the shop, the shopping experience and great seafood can’t be beat!

Excellent seafood, fresh well picked crab meat. I have tried everything they make and it’s awesome. Janie Spires

Great coastal family and seafood. A trip to their "dock-shop" where they live and work is an adventure!
Alex Outlaw

We visit Dauphin Island yearly and each trip includes at least 1 visit to Zirlotts Gulf Products for the BEST seafood from shrimp to crab to prepared products like crab stuffed bacon wrapped shrimp, battered crab claws, gumbo, stuffed crab, and the list goes on. This is a family business where they make customers feel like friends! If you aren't in the area, they also ship.
