Only complaint is that the driveway is hidden. Crab chimney stack was great as was creme brulee.

Water view. Excellent atmosphere. We choose to sit at a table outside on the front porch. They were out of Redfish and didn't tell us until we were ready to order it. The tuna steak was not on the lunch menu. Settled for the special of the day. That was disappointing to not be able to order what I wanted. Food was ok. Probably should have gone with the blackened Redfish even with substituted fish. Overall experience was just ok. Would give it another shot based on location, view & atmosphere

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Chimneys Restaurant – Gulfport, Mississippi
As a live caricature artist, I’ve had the pleasure of working at The Chimneys twice now — most recently during Cruisin’ the Coast. Imagine arriving for a wedding and discovering one of the biggest festivals of the year happening all around you! Thankfully, despite the crowds, I had no trouble getting to the venue.
From the moment I arrived (an hour early), I could tell I was in for a treat. The staff was in full motion — at least 20 to 30 people buzzing around, perfectly organized, discussing service flow and setup. The professionalism was impressive.
The venue itself is stunning: right across from the water, with twinkling string lights, a wraparound porch, and a spacious lawn where the DJ had guests dancing under the stars. There’s ample room both indoors and out, so even if weather doesn’t cooperate, the celebration can go on beautifully.
What truly stood out, though, was the service. The team checked on me multiple times throughout the night — making sure I had water and even bringing me a full plate of food. I often include a vendor-meal clause in my contract, but they went above and beyond and offered me the same menu as the guests. I chose the filet, and it was hands-down the best vendor plate I’ve ever had. Absolutely delicious — tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
Between the gorgeous coastal setting, the white-glove service, and the incredible food, The Chimneys easily earns a perfect score from me. I’d happily return here for a special occasion — in fact, I’m already eyeing Valentine’s Day dinner!

Highly recommend this gem for weddings, anniversaries, and any event where you want a truly memorable experience.

The Chimneys Restaurant was the perfect wedding reception venue! From start to finish, the team was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate all of our requests and wishes.
The setting is absolutely beautiful, the combination of indoor and outdoor spaces created the ideal backdrop for our celebration. Whether it was the charming interior or the stunning outdoor views, every part of the venue added to the magic of the day. The food was absolutely incredible, our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. The staff was professional, attentive, and made sure the entire event flowed seamlessly.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our daughter and son-in-laws big day. If you're looking for a venue that combines beauty, amazing service, and unforgettable food, The Chimneys is it!

Came here, honestly because it was walking distance from our hotel, and it looked interesting. The Gumbo, Godchaeux Salad, fried oysters, blackened redfish and key lime were outstanding. Pricing was reasonable and exceptional for the food served. Service was timely and excellent. I will return.

Made reservations at the restaurant since it was walking distance from our hotel. The gumbo, salad, fried oysters, blackened redfish, and key lime pie were all outstanding. The gumbo is a real star. The service was attentive and excellent

Been coming here for years, usually for special occasions. I hate to say it was awful. Drinks were terrible, basically cocktails not done properly. Salad was great. Entrees were cold( 3 of 4) long wait for food between courses. Then was overcharged. Very sad that it was so bad.

Main course salad could have been much better for the price. Wouldn’t order it again. But appetizers were great, service superb.
Cat Wood
What a wonderful experience. Delicious food and excellent service. Felt spoiled. Thank you so much!
Made reservations for a birthday and got there a bit early so we sat at the bar for a drink while we waited for our table. That was the best decision of the night. We ended up eating at the bar with Jamie and Watson (the bartenders). Great recommendations, great drinks, great food and great company. They are quick on their feet and very pleasant. Jamie made our birthday dinner a special one! We've been here before a few time and as always great food. Tonight was worth a review, the grouper was delicious! All around a phenomenal experience!

COREY WAS OUR WAITER AND WAS SUCH A WONDERFUL GUY. HE VERY PROMPT WITH REFILLS AND SERVICE . WE WILL CERTAINLY ASK FOR HIM NEXT V ISIT. OUR FOOD WAS SO VERY GOOD. WE WILL BE COMING BACK FOR MORE.

My family has frequented this restaurant many times over the years. It’s well worth the drive from Ocean Springs. I would venture to say The Chimney’s is the best restaurant on the MS Gulf Coast! The fried shrimp is one of my personal favorites, but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu in my opinion.

We went last night for a birthday supper for my wife. It was our first time coming in. We enjoyed our meal and our waitress did a good job. We really enjoyed the bread that was brought to us!
