Warning! Oysters we were served were spoiled and we could smell them before they were placed in front us! We were told we could get and other batch and we resoundingly said no way and left! There was one other group before us( no one else there) and they cancelled their order as they waited over 45 minutes for the food to arrive. Any establishment that is willing to let spoiled food out of their kitchen is out of their minds! Also they are rarely open,( we tried several times at various days and times), they occasionally have a happy hour but it’s random. Cocktail ice is served out of a cooler…the owner was rude and didn’t even say hello when we did and gave us a very dirty disgruntled look….(we later found out she was the owner ) parking is scattered in a rustic dirt lot which is fine but limited. Cooks and bartenders drink behind the bar and are drunk during their shift, (no wonder the food never arrives and is spoiled and the bartender (who was friendly)forgets to charge for stuff and can’t remember how to use the register) no fuel at the fuel dock and the ramp is usually chained off. The only thing good is the location. Just sad…go to gelato joes or anywhere but here.
Oysters were incredible, service was even better. Great sunset views. Will definitely be coming back
I wish we could go back and have an experience like the great reviews I've read...the pics are deceiving. Evidently the evening we went, there was no food, no cook, and no working fridge. Warm beer, drunk waitress, and no food after waiting over an hour for appetizers! ?These are hard times for restaurants cause people don't want to "work"..but, ya gotta step up your game. This was the most disappointing outing we've ever had. We weren't ugly about it cause that's not who we are and places have bad nights. ? BUT...it's full blown summer and this was a Saturday early evening. Just be honest with your customers if you're struggling...we're locals and we want you to succeed. Experiences like what we had close places down fast...some folks coming in just turned around and left...it was THAT pitiful. ?
They were actually out of oysters and recommended us another restaurant. That's good people. I plan to visit next time we're in the area.
This is a one of a kind find. Great food, the largest food and drink menu with the best cocktail choices. Doesn't look like much but has atmosphere like no other place. If you like places like Pirates Cove, this place is for you. It's a well kept secret but I will go there by boat as well as car. It is near the top of the Captain Bill List of Best places in Orange Beach/Gulf Shores with the Flying Harpoon (both), Pirates Cove, Lillian Front Porch, Butch's Bistro & BBQ, Fisherman's Corner, and the Flora-bama Yacht Club.
Might be the best food we have ever had! The spicy coconut and jalapeño strawberry margaritas are delicious!!! Our favorite oysters were ponzu, seaweed, and apple of the raw! Mushroom was by far the best roasted! The tacos are 100%. Served on warm naan bread. You can’t go wrong here.
Have loved this place since they were on the island. The new location is so perfect and the environment is spectacular. The bartender, Miranda, does an excellent job at keeping it together in very high stress moments and serving each guest with care.
Phenomenal food and service(thanks Wayne!) Beer selection is impressive.The oysters live up to the name. Highly recommend!
Great pizza and wings! Heather was great server!
Wayne was an amazing server cook and bartender! The best oysters in Baldwin county!
