I thought it was ruled a suicide?

I don't know the ins-and-outs of the relocation and name differences, I just knew they moved after the daughter took over. It is still a very good place to eat. I can hurt myself with one of the platters....

DANGER WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! (showing my age with that one)

While the state has extended their limit to 9 miles, the feds do not recognize that action. If you're caught outside the 3 mile limit by a federal enforcement agent like the Coast Guard, you're getting a citation.

Yeah there really isn't some secret to the steamer. All they do is steam it with Florida bay seasoning. But it's good. But since it was a basic concept she has been able to get away with it so far.

I am aware of the Feds. We did Florida waters last year with no problem. Funny thing is bama fish and game even somewhat encouraged it last year.

The death was inconclusive, many friends and neighbors think she was shot. She was pretty big into coke.

That's probably why I like it so much. IMO, the quickest way you can muck up seafood is to try and get fancy with it.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it - and gulf seafood most definitely ain't broke!

the gulf


Ate here a few weeks ago and really liked it. Really cool atmosphere.

Some friends recommended another new place called Caymans. It was awful. They have an awesome outside seating area, but the service and food was some of the worst we've ever had in the area.

Cayman grill is just a large overpriced restaurant. They seat a ridiculous amount of people. Food is overpriced for what you get.

OP you won't be dispointed with any of my suggestions. I highly recommend tin top. It's going to be off county road 10 off hwy 59 in gulf shores. Sit out side, get some oysters at the bar.

Go to the gulf when it's nice out, and before this weekend or after, it gets packed. Also good at lunch.

2. Shrimp Basket


My wife and I went there about 6 years ago and loved the place. Fried seafood served in a basket, some cold yellow beer, a picnic table, perfect.


My favorite place is Floribama. I don't know what it's like today, but years ago the food was really good. Oysters, shrimp, burgers, etc. Awesome atmosphere too. Daytime chill, night time crazy.

Ended up at Triggers on Gulf Beach Hwy when we couldn't get in elsewhere. Not much for atmosphere but the prices and the grilled wahoo were outstanding. Good family place.

I have a lot over on the Bon Secour river. Quiet around my place and you can be in Gulf Shores in 10 min.
