re: Restaurant Recommendations around the Beau Rivage

As others have mentioned do yourself a favor and do not waste time at the Beau for dinner. It sounds like you already have a room there but there are cleaner and nicer places to stay on the coast. Mahoneys is good as well as the half shell. Vrazels is also good but it just seems every dish that I get is drowned in butter. Another option for good eats that is no too far from the Beau is downtown Ocean Springs. Several quality resturants there as well as shopping. One of our favorites is Phonecia. Best soft shell crab on the coast. If you venture there bring your own wine or liqour as they do not serve it but do serve your mixers and ice down your wine. Excellent service as well.
