This place is fantastic. The food is exactly what you would expect to get by the beach. My husband and I both ordered shrimp dishes and they were incredibly fresh. I recommend the popcorn shrimp and the Stuffed shrimp combo. If you can save room for desert, try the Chocolate chip peanut butter pie. It's simply delicious and big enough...

Will go here again and again. Don't miss the fried green tomatoes topped with blackened shrimp in a super tasty sauce. Nice atmosphere; wonderful service. Usually there is a wait but it is well worth it.

This place is worth a 2 hour wait...!! The service is incredible, the food is incredible. I've been there at least a dozen times - always consistent. Sometimes, parking can be the difficult issue - especially when you hit them at peak times. Portions are good - I don't think that I have ever been able to eat all that...

A must stop for our family every time we go to Gulf Shores. OOH has many original seafood dishes on their menu and all that we have had, were very good. The chowder is my favorite.

I recently attended a luncheon at the Oyster House in Glf Shores. They seated us promptly, and the staff was very helpful in accomadating part of our party that needed handicap seating. The variety of the menu offered was fresh, salad bar exceptional, and it was worth the trip.

I have been visiting this place for over twelve years. They have the best gumbo and fried plate in town. Must try!

The food and service were excellent, and we were seated by a window so that was very nice. The restaurant was full and very noisy and we did havea long wait time. Overall, though, very good.

We have been frequenting this restaurant for approx. 10 years. It used to one of our favorites but the last 3 times, we have left disappointed in the food quality for the price we paid. It is not that bad if you get a fried platter but if you are on any kind of diet, the choices are extremely limited...
