We had Grouper, fried grouper sandwich, cheese burger, popcorn shrimp, cheese fritter bites (I think is what they were called), fries and onion rings. We loved every bite! Was nice to dine near the water and have the option to be inside or outside. Definitely recommend going here!“

An Awesome place to eat. Fabulous place on the water over looking Inlet, delicious Food and our waitress KATIE was so tentative, helpful, warm and friendly with a DO COME BACK Atmosphere she Created. The upstairs Outdoors atmosphere and Vibes are awesome, we started off with the Seafood Fries, for our Main meal was the Captain's Platter for 2, was such a large portion we still had to ask for a carryout. My wife and I were celebrating our 52nd Anniversary, her 76th birthday and my 79th birthday on 16th of February. The Manager was Extremely Welcoming and Super Nice. Once KATIE found out we were Celebrating Our Birthdays and Anniversary She Gifted us each with slices of Fantastic Tasting Red Velvet Cake. The Food was delivered fast and Hot!

“We had the most wonderful experience tonight while dining in. We started with a little bit of a wait, about an hour, but with the views and areas to walk around, it was no problem for 5 adults and 5 kids. The food was beyond amazing! The service was spot on and Sam was absolutely killer with dealing with all of the kids, four of which are 5 and under! It was clear she really cared. Holy smokes was the food good!!! Between the fish tacos, the grits, and the blackened tuna I had for an appetizer, I haven’t ate so good in my life!! I can’t wait to come back!! These guys are really GREAT!“

“We've been coming to the Gulf Shores/Pensacola are for 30+years. Tonight was our first visit to the Oar House. Wow!! Everything from drinks to appetizers, meals and desserts was scrumptious! Our waiter (sorry, I can't remember his name) was knowledgeable and very attentive. We will definitely be back!!“

“Edit: Mims was an amazing waitress! (Sorry if i am spelling her name incorrectly and for any confusion on the post). The food was also great and the view is perfect. I do wish you would bring back the Caribbean Jerk sandwich though :( That was my absolute favorite!“

“Andy was an excellent waiter. He knows the menu and made very good recommendations. Food was very good. The restaurant was quiet and not crowded at first but as the night progressed more two women were seated next to us and were very loud. I wear hearing devices so the noise eventually overwhelmed my hearing devices to filter and at that point I had difficulty hearing my wife and friends at our table. Overall it was a very good dining experience.“

She is sweet, fast, and very efficient and knows her job very well. I would recommend anyone eating there to ask for Angie, she will take good care of you.“

“We went to Sree's kitchen and ordered vegetarian thali which came with poori, sambar, rasam and 3 different vegetables with rice, yogurt and pickle. It was deliciousness to the core. Sree's kitchen is the place to go if you wish to taste authentic South Indian home cooked meal with the same exact taste. Bonus is that it does not hurt your stomach like some restaurant foods do.“
