Unbeatable location that makes you feel like you're at a resort . The Grouper Sandwich was killer and their selection of Mojitos was on point. Would definitely go back.

Chris Davis

This was my favorite joint we went to in Gulf shores. The food was ???????? and I loved the evening vibe! The shark burger was amazing. This place is great for groups and dates and outdoor seating .

Ashley Burns

My favorite place by far in Orange Beach. Great menu, cool drinks , infused liquors , fresh seafood made to order. Can't go wrong. Beach , food, views , drinks, atmosphere & NOT overpriced in comparison!

Andres Mendoza

We came in our fourth and last night at Orange Beach and was the perfect place to end our lovely vacation! The place is amazing!!! I wish we had something like this in TX. The mood was unbeateable

Gayle Schultz

Fresh fish sandwiches (grouper or snapper ); black beans/rice!; hummus & homemade chips

James Ferry

Great when the sun is out...great beer selection and the shrimp tacos were excellent.... legendary French fries

Jordan Vallas

Burgers , tacos , chicken sandwich are all amazing. Drinks are great too! Awesome views , and a solid place to hangout with friends or maybe a date

Matt Reed

Great views and food. Only set back is a very limited menu that everything is al a carte and slightly expensive . Can add up very quickly for a couple or small family.

Daniel T

The burger was GREAT! So was the side salad with Brown Balsamic Vinegarette dressing . Steer clear of the fries though for $4 they were a little lack luster. DEFINITELY check this spot out though!

Noble Anderson

A great location and wonderful food! Especially the grouper sandwich ???????? ???? great view of the Alabama Pass too !

Lauren

Sangria and Bloody Mary are good, order food at the bar to avoid the line .

Robin Schwartz

Hamburger was very good and reasonably priced. Fried grouper sandwich was not the best and the fries were over cooked. BUT the location, seating and staff were FANTASTIC. Definitely going back.

drew tarvin

The burger is great but there's also a second kitchen with tacos on the other side. Either way you'll get a great view .

Tracy Williams

The burgers and tacos were great along with the awesome view but $100 for a family of 6 to have burgers was a little costly.

Paige Josephine

Great place! Everything we tried was amazing and everyone was super nice. The view was beautiful

Heath Bennett

Such a cool place. Couches , bar , picnic table or a spot in the sand. Limited menu , burger was really good, just such a GREAT backdrop.

Tino Boehm

Beautiful stylish location right on the ocean... food was really really good... try the chicken tacos ????

Dave Mac

Great place to take the family for a bite to eat, some drinks, and to let the kids play in the sand!

Burgers great (huge)..you may want to split with someone if you are not a big eater

Jessalyn Ford

The tacos are AMAZING. Best tacos I've had in my entire life.

Fried Grouper Sandwich is where it's at. Scenery makes this place very Instagram-friendly

J Lewis

Great spot! FYI - The menu is small and there is no indoor dining

Michael Grindell

Amazing setting, best grouper sandwich ever!

Bruce Buchert

If you like mild fish like cod or haddock , the Grouper Sandwich might be a little too fishy for you.

Gina Geasa

Wonderful bar on the beach and great atmosphere! A must see!!

Brett Williams

This place was fun. The kids played and played while the adults ate and relaxed.

Mike Maczka

Everything is fantastic!!

Aisha Holmes Thorn

Great food, nice atmosphere. Will definitely come back.

Michael Berger

You're paying for the atmosphere. The food is nothing special and they charge you for every little thing. Also, they'll refuse to give you tap water and make you pay $1 for a bottle of water.

Zack Pettis

Great atmosphere. Great food. Limited menu

Karen Burgess

Tuna Poke is great and a great burger for the price

Whitney Baker

Grouper sandwich = perfect! Everything is so fresh and delicious!

Ross Collier

A little pricy . But their outdoor seating is the best.

Ann Buchanan

Try the hot buttered rum . You might like it. Can't say that I did!

Claire Smith

Amazing cheeseburger and fries . Great atmosphere!!

Billy Carroll

Great vibe. Grouper samwich is good but could stand more flavor.
