This is the best place to eat in this area. The service, food and prices were excellent. I had the Queen filet and my wife had the Fried crab claw platter. There were 14 in our party and everyone was satisfied. We will be back!

Our server was Payton and he was great. He was very friendly and patient with all our questions and requests. The food was AMAZING! This may be south Alabama's best kept secret! We had the "Seafood Nachos" and they were incredible! If you visit the area, I highly recommend this wonderful place!

Wow, this place was amazing! We enjoyed every bit of it, from the appetizer to the complimentary ice cream! We sat outside next to the beautiful water edge. We split the smoked tuna dip, such a great flavor. My husband ate over half of it before I got started.lol It was excellent! My meal was the broiled gulf sea food platter, or something very close to that. My shrimp tasted like scampi, the scallops had the perfect taste. I added lemon to my fish and remoulade to my crab patty. Delicious! My husband enjoyed the flippers seafood jubilee pasta. They had a wonderful deflection of seafood! We look forward to our next visit!

The best Pina Colada that I’ve had in a long time. Had the Grouper Sandwich which was delicious. Really big sandwich. Great entertainment too. Really enjoyed the band and a really pretty sunset.

We stayed at the Marina on Ms. Sherries 43 ft yacht. It was an amazing time and she's a great host, she's also the Harbor Master.

Always great food! They were closed due to moving to another location when I last came in November. I go especially for the best barbecue shrimp EVER! The best fried crab claws are the sauteed crab claws!

While planning our vacation, we were advised that we had to eat at Flipper's. What a great place to eat. Turns out that this was one of our favorite restaurants in Orange Beach while we were vacationing there. We ate outside on the dock and it was awesome. The food was very delicious and the prices were reasonable.
