Fodor's Expert Review Original Oyster House
$$
Gulf Shores
Seafood
Dining at this nautically themed restaurant on the bayou is a local tradition. Fried, steamed, broiled, and grilled seafood is served, but oysters are the house specialty, including Firecracker Oysters on the half shell baked with sliced jalapenos, garlic cream sauce, and topped with cheese. Don't miss the homemade gumbo, brimming with crab claws, shrimp, okra, and a secret combination of spices.
