Great food at great prices and friendly staff. Don't be put off if there is a line. It moves quickly compared to the more famous tourist traps. You must try the Ruby Reds, the shrimp from deep in the gulf that taste a little like lobster. Also, The baked oysters are amazing! Some of their dozen varieties of baked oysters... More

My husband and I ate here on our trip to Gulf Shores and I must say it was great!! We both had the Lobster & Shrimp Platter and O my gosh....the shrimp were seasoned and cooked perfectly, they were the best I've ever eaten. The corn on the cob & reds were delicious. Hats off to the cooks. My husband... More

Returned three times to The Steamer and Baked Oyster Bar in Gulf Shores, most recently this weekend. The steamed seafood platter, crab leg clusters, baked oysters and overflowing drinks were all perfect. Sit on the porch. Enjoy the breeze. Bring a large group as they have LARGE tables outside. This is my favorite spot to eat in Gulf Shores, Alabama.

Fresh, delicious seafood. Fast, friendly service. The crab was cooked and seasoned to perfection, and the oysters couldn't be beat. This was excellent!

Sat outside for dinner; had a mix of shrimp and lobster tail. My very favorite was the grilled shrimp, very yummy!! Everything else was just about what you'd find at most other places. Service was good and price was about average. Not my GS favorite, by any means, but still a good place to eat.

Many choices of seafood all prepared perfectly. Portions plenty for even the hungry eater at a great price. Our daughter and grand daughter loved the crab legs.

We were on spring break in Orange Beach, and decided to give The Steamer and Baked Oyster Bar a try. We had looked it up on Tripadvisor, and liked the ratings. Although it had very good ratings, it far exceeded our expectations!! We decided to try one of the shared platters, and could not believe how much food we got!!... More

Our family wanted seafood while visiting the beach so we headed to the Steamer! Didn't know what to expect, just a cozy little place with good food. And the price was very competative. Will visit again when in Gulf Shores!

Friendly, fun and enjoyable experience. The food was plentiful and tasted good. Shared the little steamer platter and had the parmesan baked oysters for an appetizer. The prices are sufficient for the amounts and quality of food that you get. Staff was friendly and service was great, needed for nothing. If looking for a good seafood experience in Gulf Shores...

I can not say enough good things about this place. The servers were very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The crab legs were amazing, some of the best my husband and I have ever had. The price is also reasonable. We will be back soon.
