Absolute best food (and service) (and views) I’ve had in a VERY long time. Ethan took care of us, and he was incredible. The lavender martini was to die for, bur so was everything else. Pictured: crawfish mac and cheese topped with lump crab, the redfish entree, and the grouper entree. Also the blackberry coconut marg and lavender martini. I am coming back to fort morgan for this place alone!!!!
Also - the restaurant is situated on a beautiful pier that is incredible for photos. Come right before sunset for the best views!!!

Last night was our second time here. The first time, the food was great, service...not so much but THIS time?? This visit was perfection. The food was phenomenal, drinks from the bar were fresh and delicious. The service was impeccable. Our server was Mia and I had to make sure I named her in this review because she deserves recognition. Every employee that we encountered through the night was friendly and courteous. Management has done a great job hiring and training. If I could give them more stars I would, excellent experience.

I had such a great experience here that we returned the next day. The food was delicious, the service was attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The dessert was to die for!! I especially love that the restaurant is pet-friendly on the patio, which is vital for someone who travels with their fur baby. The outdoor seating offers a magnificent waterfront view that truly makes the experience unforgettable. The dessert was equally unforgettable. Highly recommend! Look forward to returning any time I come through this part of the state. Thank you for the amazing meals and experience!!

The food was incredible, and the establishment was beautiful. We went two nights in a row because we were so satisfied with our meals and atmosphere. We ordered the beef tartare as an app, 2 dozen oysters and a seafood tower. The drinks were impressive, real house made cocktails no fillers or sours. The staff was very courteous and attentive. I would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back.

It’s amazing. It’s one of the best restaurants I’ve been too period. The food was fantastic, we had two types of oysters, crab cake, crawfish Mac n cheese, even the Caesar salad was great. We had the chance to also try the scallops and grouper and it was all amazing. Cannot speak more highly of this place. The atmosphere and service was impeccable.

An absolutely excellent restaurant! The food and drinks are the best I have had since moving to southern AL in 2018. Chauncey is an excellent waiter, he makes your dining experience unforgettable.
First time there and it was awesome. We sat at the love seats at the bar and Mario was our bartender and server. He is awesome. We are going back again tonight which is our last night in Gulf Port.

Sad to say but this restaurant checks all the marks except for the food, which was extremely disappointing.
The location, the building, the decor, everything is spectacular. It’s like something out of a movie. We sat inside and the sunset looked like a painting looking at it through the restaurant windows.
The service is great too. From the maitre’d to the food runner, everyone was so nice and attentive. Our waitress Rebecca was absolutely fabulous.
Unfortunately, the food left much to be desired. We shared a Cesar Salad and it was good but nothing spectacular. We ordered a filet and a dry aged ribeye both cooked medium. We also had the mash potatoes, risotto, and green beans. Also, a side of mac and cheese.
Start with the filet with the Demi glaze and mash potatoes, the steak was overcooked and the mashed potatoes and green beans were super salty, perhaps because of the Demi. The dry aged ribeye was cooked adequately to medium but super dry and tough. The ribeye also had a lump blue crab topping which was also dry like it sat forever before being served. The risotto was ok. The green beans were mushy like they had been sitting in a crockpot all day. The mac and cheese was also dry like it was also sitting all day and reheated right before being served.
We were asked if everything was ok several times and the Maitre’d did ask that we cut into our steaks to make sure the temperature was correct. We said everything was fine. I have a rule though, if I’m paying top dollar for food I expect everything to be perfect. It wasn’t, and honestly, if we would have been honest we would have sent everything back. It wasn’t that just one steak was overcooked or that the mash potatoes were subpar but everything else was great. No, all of the food was subpar and that’s not acceptable when you’re paying top dollar. Our bill was around $225 and we tipped 20% because it’s not the FOH staff’s fault that the food was not good.
I hope this was just a one off because it’s a beautiful restaurant and the staff is awesome.

Good lord this place is phenomenal! We recently purchased a condo in Gulf Shores and people kept telling us to try Jesse’s. I wish we had tried it sooner! It was a really nice evening and we elevated to sit outside. The views are like none other - absolutely breathtaking! We had a wonderful waitress who went through the menu with us and we both decided on filets. My gosh it didn’t disappoint at all. One of the best meals I’ve eaten on the coast.
Everything from the atmosphere to service to food was 5 star! We will be repeat customers.
