Where should we eat in Gulf Shores?

Whataburger...

j/k, but I'm not a fan of Gulf Shores food scene...

your condo's kitchen ..

Id go grocery shopping before and cook at the condo but thats just me

We ate at Bubba's Seafood House in Orange Beach. Originally we headed towards The Hangout but after finding out we had a 3 hour wait ahead of us we decided we needed to make a move. We called Cozmo's and they had a two hour wait, we called Lulu's and was nearly the same. So sitting with my 4 month old in hand we had to make a decision quick so I decided we were just going to ride and find the nearest joint. That turned into going all the way to orange beach because every restuarant had a wait out of the door.

So we pulled up to this little place and there was an hour wait. We made the decision to wait it out or face the reality of a ham and cheese sandwich. My my brother in law and I went over to the bar looking for some good cold draft beer but there was nothing on tap so we got a couple of corona's. Bar had quick and great service. Two beers $7.50 please. Not to bad.

To our surprise we were buzzed at around 10 minutes. During those 10 minutes my brother in law and I were lucky enough to have 4-5 different hot 30-40 year old women pass us by so the wait actually can be reduced to about 3 minutes guy time. We were kind of enjoying it. lol The waiter immediately greeted us and got us all beverages quickly and we ordered the oysters. The oysters was probably the worst thing we all got there because they were not salty. As for the entrees we ordered shrimp poboy, crab cakes(big and awesome),2 fried shrimp platter, shrimp skewers, and I had the "world famous crab legs". lol I love it how every place here has something "world famous" .

To avoid this getting to much longer then what it already is I will tell you this place for the situation was actually pretty dam good. The decor is a little rinky dink but the food was great and the service was awesome. Our beers were never in danger of running out, the kitchen was quick and our waiter was even quicker.

So if you are ever looking for a last minute eat I would recommend Bubba's Beach House in Orange Beach if all the other famous joints are jammed packed.

We are going eat out again on Saturday. The plan is to get out a little earlier so we can actually get a table. We are thinking either Lulu's, The Hangout or Cosmo's because the wives are dying to eat at one of these 3 for some reason.

Signing off before heading to the beach to:



Yes I know its 9am.

If you happen to be in the mood for eye-talian, Cafe' Grazie is a good little spot. Very good lasagna and reasonable prices.

We decided to eat at Cosmo's tonight. I must say I am really glad we made the little trip to Orange Beach. The food was awesome. The setup and ambiance was really cool too. They had a little 3 man jazz band on the deck. Once again my brother in law and I set ourselves up to view all the eye candy that passed by and we weren't disappointed.

We got 3 seafood platters, sushi, 14 oz ribeye, seared tuna salad and their famous crab claws with that sauce that you dip your bread in. Everything was great and the service was very above average. Since we are cheap asses we also took advantage of the $1 highlife lights that they had to offer. It sure beats the $3+ tax for domestic beers.

There are a couple of other spots that we want to try next summer but I am glad we tried out Cosmo's. Thanks to everyone for the responses!

Back to the real world tommorrow.
