Best Dinner Places to Eat in Dauphin Island

"Serving incredible-tasting seafood right on the sand since 1975, Sea-N-Suds Restaurant is loved as much for its food as for its views. Situated on stilts on the pier, the sunset views from the terrace seating area are unbeatable. Both a restaurant and an oyster bar, valet parking is available for diners arriving by car and looking to impress a date."

"By far my favorite place in Gulf Shores to get fresh oysters. They are consistently ten times better than any other seafood place down there--bigger, saltier,…”more"

"A post shared by Pink Pony Pub (@pinkponypub) on Mar 2, 2020 at 9:30am PST. Do you want to party late-night with your friends and eat scrumptious seafood when vacationing in Gulf Shores?. If yes, plan to visit Pink Pony Pub, an amazing seafood restaurant perched right on the sands of the shore."

"With a state-of-the-art marina which offers a fishing and boating activities, shopping, dining and entertainment, you will be spoiled for choice. Children are catered for with a Sound and Light Spectacular, one of the largest Ferris Wheels in the Deep South, a mini golf course, arcades and even a zipline course!. Some of the country’s hottest bands also perform here in The Wharf Amphitheatre, so be sure to check out upcoming events before you arrive."

"The Wharf is Orange Beach’s premier entertainment district, so there’s no better place to be a part of the action while also enjoying a cup of joe or a scoop of gelato than Southern Grind. You’ll be dazzled by not only their coffee and cuisine but by their curated collection of coastal-inspired décor. Southern Grind also has another location inside Hotel Indigo in Orange Beach (pictured here)."

"Woodside Restaurant is a casual hideaway where the rustic setting complements the tasty food and friendly service. Located on the western side of Gulf State Park, it is a relaxing spot for breakfast, but they also offer lunch and dinner. You can eat in the main dining room, a screened porch – where you’ll find Jenga or Connect 4 on every table – or find a spot outside under the lights and beautiful oak trees."

"Closest to the cabins, Woodside Restaurant has a woodsy, quiet vibe, with plenty of outdoor seating as well as indoor space for those cooler days. Their creative breakfasts didn’t quite fit our low carb constraints, but the array of salads and sandwiches for lunch and dinner were tempting."

"You order at the counter, I had the crab cake sandwich, side salad and tots, yummy!. Your food is brought to your table and while…”more"

"With the same owners as the Shrimp Basket and Mikee’s Seafood, there is a major commitment to providing quality seafood at the Steamer Baked Oyster Bar. Located behind Souvenir City in Gulf Shores, The Steamer serves raw, steamed and baked oysters along with a full menu of steamed and grilled seafood. On the menu are baked parmesan oysters, baked alfredo oysters, baked blue cheese oysters, baked Mexican oysters, baked Bama oysters, baked Rockefeller oysters, baked Cajun crawfish oysters, or a combination."

"The Steamer seafood restaurant in Gulf Shores is the newest concept from the founders of the Shrimp Basket and owners of Mikee’s. This cozy restaurant boasts the best baked oysters in Gulf Shores. The Steamer serves raw, baked and steamed oysters along with a full menu of grilled and steamed seafood."

"We had the platter with shrimp, reds, baked oysters and clams. Really good and fresh. Also the blacked fish looked great."

"Doc’s Seafood and Steaks offers a variety of fried and steamed seafood, gumbo, oysters, but the number one menu item is their “World Famous Shrimp”. In fact, no one claims to cook better fried shrimp than Doc’s. Our seafood is always fresh, always hot and always ready for your enjoyment."

"Get a fix for your hot dog craving at The Wacked Out Weiner. They offer a variety of hot dog combos that come with chips, a drink, and unlimited toppings. Don’t be afraid to go nuts and add as many toppings as you want, such as bacon, banana peppers, homemade chili, bbq baked beans, and more."

"But seriously, just think of the tasty possibilities you can create with unlimited toppings. Our first visit to Wacked Out Weiner started a bit tame with the Double Dog Combo. We topped one dog with cheddar cheese and jalapenos, the other with macaroni and cheese and bacon."

"We enjoyed breakfast at Duck's Diner on our final morning in Gulf Shore/Orange Beach. It is probably a good thing we went on our last day or we may have been there every morning of our trip. John said the Creole Shrimp and Grit Cakes was one of the best breakfasts he has had anywhere in the world."

"You think we’d be full beyond reason at this point, but we had room for one more delicious stop, this time at OWA in Foley. Our favorite mall treats have just opened in the retail village at OWA. In this one easy stop we had our fill of salty pretzels and ooey gooey cinnamon buns."

"First opening in 1910 on Royal Street and later on New Orleans’ Iberville, where it still operates today, Acme Oyster House has begun a new tradition of tastiness in Gulf Shores in the new Waterway Village District along the Intracoastal Canal Waterway. On any given day, you’ll find raw or chargrilled oysters sold by the dozen and half-dozen, along with entrees featuring a New Orleans flair (jambalaya, seafood etoufée, oyster Rockefeller soup, red beans and rice, po-boys). Platters are generously sized and feature everything from crab cakes to fried or grilled shrimp, fish and oysters."

"We looked across the parking lot from Wacked Out Weiner and spotted the sign for Coastal Cakes. Can’t leave without checking out a new cake place, right?"
