My family has owned property in Orange Beach for over 40 years, so we know the local restaurants pretty well. We had added Calypso's to our top 10 list, but our visit there mid-June was such a disappointment, we won't be going back!
Problems:
They don't have the chicken salad & gazpacho combo anymore
The burgers, which were great, must now be made with a cheaper grade meat
The Calypso Burger has a new bbq sauce that isn't anywhere as good as the old one.
And on, and on, and on...
The service was fine, but we had to ask the waiter what happened. He candidly told us the restaurant was under new ownership and some changes had been made. Too bad!
For casual atmosphere and good food, try:
LuLu's - Jimmy Buffet's sister owns this one, it's new, and it's good! Try the crab melt sandwich - to die for!
Zeke's Down Under
Tacky Jack's
The Original Point Restaurant in Perdido Key
The Restaurant at the Beach Club in For Morgan, for LUNCH, not DINNER!
The Giggling Grouper - it's where The Back Porch used to be, Bear Point Marina
