I ordered fried shrimp blowing my diet and it was so not worth it. They were like rocks and the wait staff insisted they were fine. Coleslaw was very good and my friend said the grouper was great. I'd give it one more chance. More

We tried the Shrimp Basket in Gulf Shores this past Sun. for lunch. Our waitress was nice but she took a lunch break during our lunch and no one else waited on us til she was done. The menu is overpriced ($14.00 for a fried oyster basket, $4 for a slice of pie, $8 for a oyster po boy sandwitch.... More

Team effort customer service which I have not seen before. Outstanding in this regard. Not a place for ambiance though, just a good meal at a good-very good price. Blackened shrimp and catfish tasty and shrimp slaw a nice change of pace. Good Value, good food, very reasonable portions. More

Great popcorn shimp. Great french fries. Even the slaw had small shimp in it and it was tasty too. It was a little pricier than we usually spend for a lunch but it was really good. More

Start with a basket of fried pickles for $6.99. It is served with ranch dressing. Delicious. My family enjoys the po'boys -- fried shrimp or oyster served on crustry french bread and dressed with lettuce and tomatoes and served with a pickle, also $6.99 Add some fries for $2.49. I really wish they did not charge so much for fries,... More

We ate at this restaurant twice in one week. It has healthier choices, but we ate fried shrimp both trips because it was so delicious. Shrimp is not butterflied, so the breading is light. Wait staff was pleasant and helpful each time. Locals were happy to give advice for other restaurants and fresh seafood markets. More

We visited Shrimp Basket for dinner based on recommendations from Trip Advisor and are so glad we did! My husband ordered the grilled white fish and shrimp and I had the fried trio basket with clam strips, scallops, and shrimp. All the seafood was excellent...succulent and cooked to perfection, but it was the shrimp that provided the crowning touch. The... More

We loved the Po Boy sandwiches - we tried the shrimp and and the oyster ones. The margaritas were good, too ! It's a place where the locals eat - not just the tourists. More

We usually eat here when we head to the outlet mall at Foley. The food is dependable, not fancy, served hot and the service is fast. We each had a fish sandwich. My husband had an appetizer of stuffed jalapeno and they were really good and plenty of them. More
