“Love this place, weekly must have food! Friendly people and delicious food.“

“We come through Mobile once a year or so and always try to have at least one meal here. Everything is amazing. Today, we left San Antonio Texas at 430am to head for Atlanta Ga to attend the funeral of my uncle who passed away on Saturday. we needed something comforting so here we are, enjoying the sunset, the amazing filet and shrimp, and the friendliness and good southern hospitality of our server, Lauren. Dad and I thank you for continuing to have amazing and consistently perfect food, atmosphere, and staff. Something very much needed today.“

“Service from Josh was fast & friendly, food was delicious and view was beautiful. We will be back next time we’re in the area!“

“First meal, after getting to Meaher State Park, and it was great. Gator bites, shrimp-n-grits, and snow crab legs - OMG! The service was fantastic and, although there were several people present, it wasn't noisy at all. It was a very relaxing and delicious meal. We will be back before we leave.“

“Last night we had our daughter’s 16th birthday there. The service and food was absolutely amazing, but the icing on the cake was one of your employees walked up and handed me a $50 bill to give her for her birthday. I told him he didn’t have to do that and he said “if you don’t give it to her I will”. It was the kindest gesture I’ve ever seen. Made her night. Thank y’all for everything. You’ve got a life long customer 🙂“

“EDIT from original post: We were served by the lovely!!!! Amy today and ONCE AGAIN Half Shell delivered excellent service and amazing food! So happy with my experience! They made sure my boyfriend’s birthday was wonderful! Shout out to Amy and Saber! We also went for my birthday last month and I didn’t catch her name, but our server then also rocked and was so kind!
Original: Saber is the best waitress EVER! Whenever my boyfriend wants to treat me to a nice dinner, I always choose Half Shell! The lovely hostess with the beautiful curly hair is always so polite and welcoming. They truly serve the best oysters I’ve ever had! I love how diverse the menu is, so when I bring a friend, I can pretty much guarantee they’ll find something they like. I attended a party in their private room during Christmas time, and it was probably the best Christmas party I’ve ever been to. Our waitress, Saber, took extra care to make sure we were well taken care of. She is so quick and attentive! She answered every question we had and was able to recommend things on the menu to try. We love having conversations with her. The last time we went, the awesome hostess with the gorgeous hair remembered me and seated my boyfriend and me in Saber’s section! We felt like celebrities. LOL.
Thank you, Half Shell, from a very happy pink-haired customer.“

“Ate there today. Food and staff was amazing!!!! Can’t wait to go back!!!“

“On our way back from Florida we stopped at this location as we saw the billboard on the Hwy. The food was truly delicious and our waitress Lisa was funny, quick and polite. We ordered the Catfish and Shrimp combination plate, chicken finger basket and the catfish dinner! The tartar sauce and slaw was the best we have ever eaten!! Check them out!!!“

“The food is delicious and the service is even better. Our server Erin Moseley was amazing, she took great care of us and is very sweet.“

“Food was really good, plentiful, and very reasonably priced. Plus, the condiments were homemade! Server was pleasant and did not bother you every few minutes asking if everything was ok.“

“I have visited Fresh Seafood Distributors many times for their fresh fish, but we ordered some boiled crawfish this weekend for the first time. It was some of the best tasting crawfish I've had in a long time. They were good sized and perfectly seasoned. I highly recommend visiting these folks for your seafood and crawfish needs. They also have a great selection of spices and gumbo mixes.“

“I'm so disappointed in my new favorite restaurant. Took my family there two Sundays ago for lunch after.church. This was my third visit and first disappointment. Not sure what's .going on. To me they were good because of the different food they offered.. They have eliminated several side items and only offered broccoli and rice which I can get anywhere! Noticed they weren't packed either for a Sunday. Hope whoever made the decision to drop these items and others will put them back before its too late.“

“No photo, to go order.
P2-Large portions of catfish, fries but only 4 little hush puppies.
Great tasting fried catfish. Fries just so so, hush puppies were tasty
Restaurant itself is quite bright, almost sterile.
Has a fishy odor, but understandable as I would think the fish is very fresh being by the bay.
Thanks“

“My wife and I had an impromptu date night last night at Southwood. It had to be one of the top 5 meals I've ever had! Murder Point Oysters followed by the Tomato & Mozzarella salad, leading into the Scallops and Cobia topped with Jumbo Lump Crab for entrees. Mind-blowing flavors and expression in each dish with impeccable presentation, topped off with precision table service. I can't say enough good things about Southwood! ♥️😎“

“Absolutely amazing. We had the ribeye and the filet. So good. The service Ron provided was just as good or better. We will be back!“

“We enjoyed everything about our visit to Dauphin’s from the beautiful panoramic view to the relaxing dining experience. The music was wonderfully nostalgic. The bountiful southern comfort food was served with a smile and comfortable friendliness. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend this dining experience.“

“We greatly enjoyed our food and drinks! Our server, Lauren, was a gem. She was super knowledgeable of the menu. I got the Alabama Roll and it was super delicious! I want to go back and try other rolls.“

“The food is absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend the smothered catfish! And boudin! And bread pudding!“

“if I gotta cross the bay I make sure its in the morning so I can get breakfast at Bob's!!“

“everything is fantastic here.The food is great and so is the service.“

“The food was wonderful! Jody was our amazing waitress & provided excellent customer service. Great atmosphere 10/10!“

“Great place to catch a drink for happy hour!“

“They have a phenomenal burger. Definitely worth the price and they have really good sides. Perfect for a night out after work.“

“I recommend them for their drinks! The drinks are really good and worth the price you pay! The food on the other hand is usually good, but this specific visit I asked for no onions on my sandwich and they still put onions on it. I told the waiter that I said no onions and showed him where they had onions on it and he said oh OK and didn't come back to the table until 10 minutes later with some sauce I ordered. So I guess that just meant that my sandwich wasn't gonna get remade or anything, so I just picked out the onions, but it still smells like onions. Total bummer and waste of money at that point but I didn't wanna cause a scene. I'll say if you get your food check to make sure it's right because nothing was done for mine“

“We waited over TWO hours for our food and drinks. When we got to speak to the manager he was brash and rude!!!! I will NEVER eat at this restaurant again. We did have a lovely waitress. She was treated poorly by the manager as well. If I were you, I would replace my manager!!!!“

“Very enjoyable. Food was very good, although fish of the day, blackened red snapper, was somewhat overcooked. The chicken dish was very tasty but would be better if served off the bone. Waygu flat iron got voted as the best dish of the evening. The fried pimento cheese app was great. All in all a very very good meal from apps to desserts. Excellent bread pudding. Service was excellent.“

“I had an amazing experience. I had the fish with rice and veggies with a margarita. the food was delicious! Christy, the bartender, was the sweetest, she ensured my drinks were well and she took really good care of me as a customer. The GM Chris was really respectful and nice! I will definitely be coming back!!!“

“We have been looking for a good Chinese buffet for a long time and just haven’t found one until now. The food was delicious, hot and lots to choose from. The crab Rangoon which is my favorite was actually crispy and hot not the typical soggy kind at most buffets. There was lots of sushi rolls to choose from and all were delicious. They also have a large dessert table and ice cream. The staff was super busy but still incredibly polite. Definitely coming back and I was already recommended the place to friends while I was still eating.

Vegetarian options: There was plenty of dishes that were vegetables but I’m not a vegetarian so I can’t say for sure if it would be your thing or not

Parking: We came at lunch hour they were super busy but we still found parking easy.

Kid-friendliness: They have pizza and chicken for kids who don’t like traditional Chinese food. They also have a huge dessert table any kid would love. There were lots of families while we were there with kids and they seemed to be enjoying it.“
