We were very happy when we entered the restaurant beautiful and very quiet. We were seated at a lovely table overlooking the gulf. Our waitress was lovely and the cocktails were on par. I had the seafood bisque which was salty but nice lumps of crab. My husband ordered the wedge without tomatoes but tomatoes were served. i then specifically ordered the crab encrusted redfish with rice instead of the grits. (after being assured by the waitress that this was not a problem). I was served the entree over the grits. The waitress came and apologized. I recieved a dried out side of rice . The problem was that the entire entree ... including the green beans were enveloped in the grits . When I politely told the waitress to please let the mngr know she said .."he is the one who served you the meal" A true restaurant who charges as they do, takes an incorrect meal back as replates the entree. My husbands seaffood platter was terrible everything was dried out and overcooked. A very very disappointing meal.

The food and service was excellent. The atmosphere is beautiful. Our server Andrew was wonderful. He took care of all our needs. It's difficult to get great service anymore and Andrew was the best. They have small plates which were perfect for us. Plenty of food. I had the shrimp and grits and was wonderful.

Excellent dinning experience. Great outdoor seating when the weather permits and great sunsets in the winter.The crab legs were well seasoned. The potatoes could have used some more time in the boil.Oysters were good and the truffle fries were better than I remembered.Excellent service.
My family and I went for New Years Eve dinner. When making reservations, there was no notice that it would be a pre-set menu, so we assumed it would be their normal menu. Although it was a pre-set menu, we were fine with it. It did not show prices on the menu, and we later found out they charged us $150 a person for each meal. Nothing about the food screamed high quality or “fine dining”. Not only that, but the lighting was so bright and sterile. There were children screaming and running throughout the restaurant, and our cloth seats were stained upon sitting down. The food came out cold and underwhelming, and under seasoned. The fact they thought they could charge this much is astonishing. I am incredibly disappointed! Take your money to an actual fine dining restaurant and I bet you’ll spend even less.

Mandatory fixed price for NYE- poor communication in advance about this. Saw 3 groups walk out. For $125 each, average food. No attempt to make it a fun night- bright lights in the dining room and servers with untucked t shirts and tennis shoes. Have enjoyed Coast in past- this is latest of several misses- will not be back.

Overpriced and no communication about $125pp fixed menu for NYE dinner. Went there expecting full menu. On the fixed menu, nowhere was price listed for $125. Let me be clear when I say that this was not a $125 meal. $60-70pp would have been appropriate. Also, screaming children literally ran throughout the entire restaurant and actually banged on the windows several times. If you are looking for a nice dinner, this isn't it. It does have a nice view, but not worth the price, the deception, and the Chuck E. Cheese like atmosphere.

Food was terrible. Even the rolls were stale. And the restaurant decor was very dated.

Stopped here to get something to eat on our way to Fort Morgan. At first we weren't sure if we could eat here as it looked like a very fancy private club. And we definitely were not dressed nice. But the dining area is open to the public. It wasn't very busy so we had good service and the food was great! Great views - we were sitting outside on the balcony which was near the pool where guests were enjoying the day.
Number of selections were sufficient and selections were obviously chosen very carefully. Food and service was absolutely perfect. Could not have asked for a better experience. Will be going back soon.

Great service by Joe on a rainy evening in October; my red snapper entree was raw in the middle and when I asked if it was supposed to be that way, Joe said don't eat it and comp'd that and more off the bill. It's a little expensive for what it is, but still head and shoulders above the expensive touristy fried crap you get everywhere else in Gulf Shores.

My husband and I are so glad we found this amazing restaurant. Of course we started with oysters for our appetizer. They were fine, but could be better. The star of the evening was the, catch of the day, Bronzed, Grouper fish. It was fantastic, absolutely cooked to perfection! The best cooked fish my husband and I have ever eaten! We are foodies and both love to cook and eat! This was the best!

The food is very bland and overpriced for what you received. I had the catch of the day and my fiancé had a Strip Steak. I only ate three bites of mine because it was tasteless. I had the Gouda grits as my side and they were also tasteless. I had to ask for some salt and pepper just to give them some taste. The Brussel sprouts on the other hand were amazing. My finances food was ok but again had to have salt and pepper added to it because there was no flavor. Thiswas definitely not a $175 meal. Our will say that our server was very sweet and did a great job!
Nice place and good food.
