My family and I just got back from a wonderful trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama. We were thankful that our facility we stayed in had a grill and kitchen and we made good use of it as my husband cooked most of our meals at the beachhouse. He likes to grill and we thought we would save a little money...

Our food was excellent. Hubby got a broiled combo and I had butter pecan amberjack. Heavenly!! My hubby couldn't stop raving about his food. Server was awesome. Two small kids and he brought out extras for them. We eat out a lot and this place is easily in our top 3!!!!

What is not to like? The Original Oyster House sets elevated with a lovely view of the Little Lagoon in Gulf Shores, AL. At sunset the view is almost magical the way marsh grasses are backlit and the colors reflect off the water. You go hoping to spot an alligator. If you're lucky you'll see one. I don't eat at...

A couple of my girlfriends and I visited The Original Oyster House on Spring Break last week. We went at dinner time, and there was an hour wait. However, there were several little shops all around the restaurant to keep us busy until our table was available. This was great! Once we were inside, we were waited on immediately. Drinks...

Our latest visit was on a Thursday evening in mid-February. There was a full house but we were seated immediately at a good table. We enjoy their relaxed atmosphere - there has always been a good mix when we've been here. We feel comfortable in nice jeans yet if you preferred to dress up I think you would feel just...

We loved going the the Original Oyster House in Gulf Shores, AL, for lunch and creating our own platter with pick 2 or pick 3 items and 2 sides. We always had a different combination and the salad bar is also the best around. We will be back next year for sure. Thanks for the great food and wonderful service.
