13 Best Seafood Restaurants near Grand Bay

“Every time I order, it’s always delicious. Very friendly and they keep me coming back. They make the best hamburger in town. If you haven’t tried them, you should.“

“I’m from out of state and was introduced to Bayou Seafood Company LLC by my wife and her family—and I have to say, this place is a true gem! We absolutely loved the crab legs—perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and just fell apart like butter. But the real surprise? The shrimp. Where I’m from, we get tiny little shrimp… but here? These suckers are HUGE! And not just big, but juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. My wife is a gumbo eater she loves their gumbo me on the other hand can deal without but I trust that it’s great!

Everything we tried had amazing flavor, clearly made with love and real Southern soul. You can tell they take pride in their seafood, and it shows. If you’re ever in the area, don’t miss out on this spot. We’ll definitely be back every chance we get!“

“A great Bayou la Batre type restaurant with good food and service. If you want all of the frills that you'll most likely pay extra, go to a Franchised restaurant in the city and miss all of the shrimp boats and ship builders in the area. Sure they make a mistake every once and awhile, many are far worse since covid. I like it !“

“My family loves The Lighthouse! We had the best experience this evening. My sister & I brought our kids after the DI Mardi Gras parade. Two adults with a 6 year old, two 5 year olds, a 1 year old & a 9 month old. We had a 35 minute wait, but it went by fast. We had a great server, she was so sweet. Our girls were a little loud, but the whole restaurant was loud due to it being busy, a drink got spilled but we cleaned it up. We had two older women and a man sit at the table behind us & they were constantly staring, talking about us & our children. I guess we were a bother to them, I was very upset about it. After we paid, a tall man who works in the back came out and told us not to go anywhere yet, that he had something for the girls. He brought out 3 popsicles & opened them for them 🩷 My sister said he had been looking out from behind the counter and thought he had noticed the situation. Even if he didn’t, he was so kind and it made everything better. Just made me love the restaurant even more. Our food was 10/10 as always!“

“Always received great quality oysters & service from CBOC. Highly recommend!“

“Rodney has the best fresh shrimp of the boats, while your there even they are unloading!!!Great people and even have a bar on site to wet your whistle from the excitement of your fresh find and prices are unrealWell worth a stop in by all means!!!“

“We are staying on Dauphin Island but heard this restaurant is very good. We took a little drive to try it out. Definitely glad we did. Worth the quick drive from the island. We had 3 kids and 4 adults. The kids had cheeseburgers and fries. The adults had fantail shrimp, shrimp po boys and chicken tenders. The shrimp was fantastic! My sister said the chicken tenders were so good. Not frozen ones. 😄 The staff was very friendly and took care of us. The decorations and environment is welcoming and fun to look at. We will definitely be back.“

“Have gotten dinner twice from Happy Tails and both were good! The crab legs and shrimp were flavorful.“

“What else can I say but WOW. We stopped by for a dozen shucked oysters on a half shell and we're not disappointed. The oysters were smooth and buttery with just the slightest hint of brine. No need to add salt, these are perfect just the way they are. Friendly staff and some of the best tasting oysters I've ever had. They are family owned and operated with a unique story. Don't miss out on this gem. Stop by, have you a dozen and don't forget a t-shirt! You won't regret it“
