37 Best Seafood Restaurants in Gulf Shores

“Such a fun place!!! We’d never been there before and decided to give it a try. Absolutely did not disappoint!! The entertainment was top notch, and the food was just as good!! There was a mishap of a rather disgruntled guest there, and the Manager Brittany came over just to make sure we were all good. She was so nice and hooked us up with fun stuff. 10/10 place!“

“LOVE this place:) had the tuna poke & it was ?? Jinny was incredible!“

“We have loved everything we have tried so far!! The fried oysters taste fresh and are good! I love the miso soup, shrimp tempura roll, and california roll. My husband loves the chicken yakisoba noodles. The food is the same when you DoorDash vs pickup. It’s always hot and fresh.“

“The service is excellent, the food and drinks are delicious, and the view is stunning.“

“The OmG poboy was delicious. Shrimp perfectly fried and super fresh! Even the lettuce and tomato tasted like it came from the garden. The tomato was perfect. I loved the sample of swamp soup, also delicious. I wanted to taste the gumbo, it also did not disappoint! Hush puppies perfectly flavored. Fries and okra fresh. Service was friendly, wait time was appropriate. Highly recommend. It does have an old vibe to the building. I’m guessing it was an Asian restaurant prior. Overall absolutely amazing, it’s definitely on my return restaurants in Foley.“

“We had a great dinner at Tide & Table on our last night in the Gulf Shores area. Our experience started with fast and friendly valet parking from Sid outside the entrance to the hotel. Valet parking is complimentary for diners. Our food and service were amazing. We shared the Conecuh Sausage Broiled Oysters as an appetizer. I couldnt resist dessert, and their key lime pie is one of the best I’ve had in the area. We would definitely go back!“

“VERY impressed! I work in food service, for nearly 18 years, and the manager or owner maybe came out from the kitchen and greeted us, as they were very busy. He was very pleasant and got us seated quickly, the server was kind and brought everything very quickly. The food was TERRIFIC, huge portions, hand battered, great quality, absolutely crazy delicious idea with the grouper Ruben! The vibe, the whole thing was just really great and I would and will definitely recommend and certainly be back!“

“This salad was scrumptious, the buttered bread crumbs were a taste delight. Very nice presentation!“

“I'm very disappointed. I've ate at this restaurant many times from 2018 to 2022 and always loved the food, drinks and experience. we went tonight with new friends and were not happy with our server Taylor, not hospitable, my husband's filet mignon wasn't a great cut very tough, my tuna was a good fish but not impressed with seasoning, my kids both had fried fish and it was very fishy. then our server added credit card fee and thankfully manager refunded that five dollar fee. it was just a weird experience and no one really apologized. we don't mind paying for great food but the server was not kind acted like she was mad at us. I'm so sad“

“If you love true smoked meats and fish, you have to stop by Brookmans. It's a hidden gem just off Hwy 59. He does a great job on salmon and pork chops. Check out his selections from his website and order online ahead of time. Smoking takes longer than cooking so take a little time to plan ahead. Amazing smoked flavors and tender as well.

This is basically a carry out place that has no tables inside. If you can imagine a butcher shop for smoked products. Bring a cooler or order ahead online.

Finding it
From 59S turn left on E 15th Ave and then take the first right. This is a back door to avoid the intersection at 59 and Fort Morgan Rd.

“Xavia was AWESOME!!! We had such a great time and the food was wonderful“

“One of my favorite restaurants in Gulf Shores!“

“We have been coming to Gulf Shores for 9 years now. The Beach House is across from our condo. It is perfect. Food variety and quality, everyone can find something and enjoy it. The staff is always spot on and delightful. Pricing is what you expect, not over priced. We will continue to come back with our family every year.“

“I just wanted to say that the manager was excellent. My husband is a blind veteran. Michael/manager/catered to us was great thank you for cleaning the bathroom. Excellent customer service would recommend to anybody.“

“This place did not disappoint, I will be back for sure!“

“Great food and a great staff they gave my father who is a veteran a discount on our bill today. Thank you so much. Ps my dad is 81 years old and hard for him to get around.“

“I got the crab cakes. My husband got a tuna burger, which actually ended up being the first fish he's eaten that he actually likes. Crab cakes were delicious as well. The staff was super kind and even checked up on us to make sure the sandwich was to my husband's liking. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting!!“

“Laid-back restaurant with huge portions. We ordered 1 lb royal reds, crab legs, sausage and crab cakes. Hands down our favorite stop on this trip. Di'Andre, our server, was amazing! Thank you for a great experience.“

“This place has had a bad reputation over the years, but it recently got new ownership, and let’s say they've really turned the bar around for the better! I had been there in previous years and swore never to set foot back in there. This past year, I’ve had some friends who started going and working there, so I gave it a shot. I was very impressed because it was like a whole different bar I was walking into.

So much security, who are always on top of things (I’ve heard that a lot of the security and bartenders have undergone extensive training to make sure everyone stays safe). At the front door, they check IDs with a scanner and a book of all IDs for each state. They are a 19-and-up bar, but anytime I’ve seen people not of legal age trying to sneak a sip, they are always on top of it and kick them out immediately.

A lot of people (locals) like to down on it and say you will get roofied, or see a lot of fights. Still, I honestly haven’t seen or heard of any of that happening under this new ownership (not saying it never does, but it’s definitely not as bad as it used to be under old management), and guess what? That can happen at any bar you go to. I know so many people who have been roofied at the FloraBama or other bars in the area. I saw way more fights going on at the Shaker every weekend at the wharf.

It is so much fun that they do karaoke too, have live music, and have so many different areas to visit and hang out. They have done a spectacular job at renovating the place too. I really enjoy the outback area, especially on holiday weekends and big occasions, because they have a DJ and a host and do so many fun games to win things.

Food and drinks are great, too, as is the service! Evan is my personal favorite!!

All I’m trying to say is it’s a whole different bar now, a whole different crowd, a whole different experience, a whole different atmosphere, and the locals who have heard and/or have said bad things about it over the years should really give this new business a try!“

“Our Family absolutely loved eating here. We will definitely make it a regular thing when we are in town. Super large portions and the staff there are pretty spectacular!“
