“Had the fried fish platter for dinner by the recommendation of Jim the manager. I must say it was delicious! I would definitely recommend coming to check it out. I tried the Bushwacker frozen drink too. Also recommend trying that also.”

“We have been coming to the Gulfshores/Orange Beach area for 12 years, and today was our first time eating at DeSoto’s. It was absolutely amazing, and my whole family enjoyed our meal. We had the absolute best service by the general manager, and the whole staff was so welcoming. I would give this restaurant a 10/10, and we will be coming back for every visit!”

“We were on vacation from Iowa and ordered two of 2 for $25 Low Country Boils. One was Mild and the other was Cajun. They were both delicious. I highly recommend them and will get it again the next time we vacation there.”

“The beer was pretty good but tasted like tin a bit. the bartender was not friendly seemed bother to have to serve us. the music was also pretty loud”

“This was our first time to this restaurant, and we will most definitely be back! The food was amazing, but the service was even better. I’ve been a sever for 17+years, and they had me taking notes! I WISH I caught their name, but whoever you were, THANK YOU! You made my birthday boy’s night! (You have short black hair, and my son has long-LONG blond hair). Anyways, again thank you. We came hangry, we left stoked. ❤️”

“Purchased smoked salmon and redfish and also some salmon. Probably the best smoked fish I've had and have tried a few. Rub is similar to popular pork shoulder rubs, maybe a little cayenne but no real heat. Highly recommend!”

“All 4 orders were as menu. I only stated 4 on food because both grilled shrimp/scallops were cool on 2 orders. Seated on exterior p8cn8c benches, so did not see/experience inside. Drinks we ok. Green beans salty from meat, but paired well with red potatoes.
Enjoyed the meal!!”

“My wife and I both enjoyed dining at Savanna tonight and will be back for sure. Food was delicious and the ambience is very nice. Wish they had more vegetarian entrees but their side dishes were amazing and worked for us.”

“When in Gulf Shores we always make a couple trips to Lulu’s. I have a gluten allergy and they are always very good to me and the food is always good. I never have to worry about getting sick. I love the staff they are always very nice and accommodating and never make me feel different just supported. We have never had a bad experience and I look forward to it every trip. Thank you Lulu’s for always being so good to me.”

“We walked in, saw the car & we asked can we sit at the car table and we were immediately seated. Brittany S. was our server and was fabulous. She was pleasant, smiled, joked with us & checked on our needs on a regular basis. When we were done eating, we asked if she would take our picture with the car and she said sure!

The place was crowded when we arrived, but service was quick, and the staff are extremely friendly and outgoing. Can’t wait to go again.”

“Exactly what you’d want from a hand dipped ice cream place. Fast, delicious, and reasonably priced. They also have shaved ice. It’s on our must visit list next time we are on vacation in the area!”

“Normally any Mexican places after passing the Mississippi are questionable at best. Braved this place and was pleased to find the food was good and on par with what is normally found in Phoenix.”

“great unique flavors very nice and pleasant stuff would definitely go back.”

“We went to the location off of Gulf Shores Parkway instead of Fairhope, but my brothers and I had been driving for over an hour looking around for a place to eat. Gulf Shores was seeing some volleyball tournament happening tonight and literally every other restaurant we went to was seeing an hour and a half or even longer of a wait time to be seated. We went to this location after everything else, we were seated immediately, and we were served by one of the most hospitable waitresses I have ever seen. Her name was Fiona and honestly she deserves the best people have to offer. Fiona, if you see this, we appreciate your service tonight! We have eaten at this location before and neither time have been disappointed. Highly recommend to anyone who is going to Gulf Shores/Fort Morgan.”

“My mom, aunt and I visited here on May 3 around 130pm. Immediately was greeted by our server Cruz! He sat down and went over the menu with us and gave us the low down about it all. Very patient with my mom and Aunt. They can be sometimes hard to please but they LOVED this place! We ordered the Lead Belly Burger and the Boogie Woogie Burger along with the Soul Nachos for an appetizer. We shared the house fries which were delicious. The lead burger had the best beer cheese I've tasted on it! Boogie Woogie Is just your typical bacon cheeseburger with diced up bacon and a relish type sauce on it. Fresh brewed sweet tea!!! I cannot tell you enough how delicious it all was! We were stuffed! Last but not least the best was our server Cruz! Excellent service, excellent food, and excellent price if you ask me! I'll pay whatever for a good burger and that's what we got! We will be back!”

“The Ice House is one of our favorite places in Gulf Shores. Specifically due to The outside area with live music and the fact that the Owners are just good people. Looking for live music? Stop here at 6pm.”

“I dropped in one morning just to check the place out! Breakfast is my favorite meal for dining out. It was an outstanding experience. Fresh food, properly prepared and served quickly. I had the scrambled eggs with jalapeños. Both the coffee and salsa were good too! I'll be back!”

“My family decided to try this place on vacation and it did not disappoint! Very clean, nice workers, and THE BEST ice cream we’ve ever had! Definitely recommend it and will be back before we go home.”

“Burgers were excellent. Cooked perfectly and has a char broiled taste. It's an older bar, nothing fancy. Service was pleasant and quick. Had love music. Couldn't understand the guy but good guitar player. I would go there again when visiting for a good burger.”

“The coconut mocha and avocado toast is super good! Very nice and friendly staff! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! Very cute and homey!”

“sliced turkey, cucumber tomato salad and wild fries with pork BBQ sauces. all amazing. sweet BBQ sauce is the best but they are all good. friendly staff quick service.”

“The fish tacos did not have any taste, that was disappointing. However, the worst part was the one hour wait for our order to be served. There was a large crowd, but in my opinion, not that large to cause such a delay. Our server, CJ, did his best to overcome the long wait.”

“My husband and I stopped in here and enjoyed beignets for breakfast. The lady behind the counter who took our order was very friendly and provided excellent service. The beignets were absolutely delicious and we will be going here again before we leave to head home. Highly recommended.”

“Mudbugs quickly became THE vacation… we legit went every night. Whether it was busy or a weeknight and kinda chill, we lived for it. The staff - many we now call friends… are unreal. Wanna go somewhere that you can find every type of human and just let go of reality? I hope it is like that for you and yours…. We look for any and every reason to return now. Some peeps are looking for “things”… I dunno…. I love “feels” and good times. Cheers!”

“Always clean, hot food and the employees are very friendly. One of our favorite places to eat!”

“7/11/21 The crew working this evening should all get bonuses!! I have never seen a place so packed, inside and out, drive thru and nonstop Doordash. I was in the restaurant industry for a long time and probably would have walked out if I would have been working at Zaxby’s tonight. Not one time did I see an employee not smiling and providing 💯 customer service. Give them a raise boss!! Congratulations on hiring great employees! 🎉 🙌🏻 😎👍”
