A wonderful restaurant –outstanding seafood (we had boiled shrimp and blackened tilapia), delicious corn, potatoes, French fries and cole slaw. Super friendly wait staff. The place was exceptionally clean, and very nicely decorated. A special treat for one who has peel and eat shrimp – a finger bath with warm water and lemon. Really nice touch! When we got there,...

We make several trips to Gulf Shores and eat here it has always been good. We have tested most of the items. Lunch is a great value. Make sure to be early for lunch or dinner as they will have a wait.

We make several trips a year to the gulf coast and frequent many types of seafood establishments. This was our first time dining at King Neptune's. We normally dine at off hours to avoid crowds, and long wait times. But after checking with a couple of other restaurants , that had over an hour wait time, and since it was... More

We eat here several times each time we come to the beach. The food is consistently excellent. The gumbo is the best we've had anywhere in OB/GS...full of seafood/sausage. I love the blackened snapper and my husband loves all of the grilled fish. The coconut shrimp is my absolute favorite dish they serve...the best that I have EVER eaten anywhere!... More

A friend recommended this place and he was right. We ordered the combination seafood broiled platter and split it between us. I loved the blue crab in the shell and the oysters especially. We had enough to fill us and enough room for a desert to split. The fried cheesecake was out of this world! We split that, too. It... More

I really liked this restaurant! The food was really good and it was speedy as well. The service was super friendly, as if it were a local hang out and not a tourist spot. I recommend the Broiled bacon wrapped jumbo shrimp. It comes with new potatoes, corn on the cob, and two pieces of garlic bread. SO GOOD! I... More

We visited King Neptune's on the recommendation of a friend and we were very pleased with our experience. It's a small, no frills restaurant, but the wait staff is fast and friendly and the food is fantastic. Our drinks weren't watered down, which was nice. My wife got crab, which surpassed the critical Maryland test (she's from Maryland and thinks... More

We were on a short vacation to Orange Beach, and saw the great reviews for King Neptune. We were there for a Saturday lunch. We wanted oysters, and asked for them to be steamed (healthy choice), but were told they only came raw, unless on a platter. We decided to get the baked oysters. They were great oysters, but too...

We visited King Neptune based on the recommendation of a friend and were not disappointed. The atmosphere was casual and the waitstaff was friendly, knowledgeable and not intrusive. My rum and Diet Coke was not watered down and my husband's Coke and Malibu was also very good. I ordered the crab martini and was very pleased. They advertise blue crab... More
