The Blue Marlin is Gulfport’s best-kept secret. The evening we dined, the restaurant was very quiet, so the service was excellent as we had little competition with other guests. The Blue Marlin’s menu is impressive for such a small restaurant tucked in a fairly new resort community. It’s clear the chef is highly influenced by neighboring New Orleans’ cuisine. Highlights included fried oysters, andouille and cabbage appetizers, fried fish sandwich (blackened and peppered), and fresh green salads. Do not leave your table without ordering a slice of blue velvet cake, topped with cream.

Every time I come to the Blue Marlin ? the food and service are outstanding! Today Kenny took great care of us and me never had to ask for anything because he was always checking in on us. When there was a problem with our order he took care of it and had our food out with a quickness. The drinks from the bartender? was outstanding and she remembered our drink? from our last visit. This is our "Cheers" because we always feel like they are always glad we came...even though they might not know our name yet. The Brussel sprouts were ??? as was the shrimp? toast!! If this isn't your spot it should be because I have never had a bad experience; so glad they reopened!!! It's never crowded and the atmosphere always has a upscale vacation vibe!Parking: Lot of parking Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessibile

Our original reservation was given to someone else however, the staff easily found two empty tables to accommodate us in the rather vacant dining room. This was surprising considering it was a sunny Sunday at 4pm. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was our first visit and we heard it was good but overpriced but we wanted to try for ourselves. We had 9 in our party so we didnt mind the longer than typical wait for food. Id say overall the food was very average. The fried seafood was a bit overcooked and on the bland side and some of the vegetables were obviously beginning to mold prior to steaming. For an average price of $25 per person I felt it left a lot to be desired for a coastal seafood restaurant. We will probably choose another restaurant next time.

Front porch was great to sit and have dinner!

We are staying at the Oasis, so we tried out The Blue Marlin. The food was very good. I was disappointed because they were out of shrimp when we went, so I settled for the grilled chicken pasta. I'm so glad I did! It was delicious. My husband got the Mahi Mahi and said it was very good. We would gladly eat here again.

Some dishes had reasonable portions but the fish special was 2 very small pieces of fish and some close to raw broccoli and it was very pricey.

We really enjoyed our lunch. The food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly.
