Okay, so here we are on the Gulf Coast with access to a variety of great local fish and seafood; indeed some of the best in the country. So what does "Joe" offer on the menu? Out of 6 fish choices, 5 are non-specifically identified as coming from the Pacific rim. The Pacific Rim? You gotta be kidding. I guess... more

Heard good reviews, but we were not impressed. We were told 20 min for a table, and it took 40, and they did not appear that busy. Our food took an exceptionally long time to come out once we did order. When we got our food, it was fine, but not that great. The restaurant is off the beaten path... more

When we finally received our food after waiting 45 minutes it was very tasty. Unfortunately we had to ask twice for our children's drinks and none of our service request were met. Waiter did not know the menu and did not answer our questions regarding entrees correctly. We ordered a mango cocktail which tasted good but had no alcohol in... more

We tried eating at the restaurant upstairs from Calypso Joe's but it didn't have as nice a view, so we went downstairs and got a table at Calypso Joe's right in front of the yachts in the marina. It was so interesting and the yachts kept coming in and out and it was really a lot of fun to watch... more

Calypso Joe's had the most festive atmosphere of the restaurants we ate at during our recent vacation to Gulf Shores. We liked getting to eat at the Marina and seeing the large fishing boats. Food was good with lots of flavor. Was disappointed that were out of a couple of things we tried to order. Service was very slow. We... more

The atmosphere was really neat. The food was pretty good. The only problem was the service. We expected to wait for a table, that was alright. However, once we were seated, we didn't see a waitress for 15 minutes. We were pretty much forgotten about! The alcoholic drinks were $7 each. Our meals were $20 each. The whole tab came... more

After a two hour dolphin cruise across the street, we ventured into the Orange Beach Marina to eat at Calypso Joe's. It was a great place to eat lunch. For five adults and two children, the price was $70.00 total. We all had sandwiches that came with island slaw and fries. Even though we ate inside because it was sooo... more

Maybe the fried shrimp po-boy was just a little lacking, but I was not impressed with the food in the least. The rest of my party, however, really enjoyed their's especially the hamburgers and chicken salad. I loved the atmosphere! It is really beautiful and even allows the children to feed the fish while you wait to be seated. more

My family and I tried this restaurant on the waterfront in Orange Beach, Alabama last night and it was great. There was live music, good food, and fast service. The waterfront was very relaxing and casual, just the way I like it for vacation. Try the black beans and fish. Very good. Great desserts too. I highly recommend the mango... more
