    Visited for later lunch on a Friday after visiting Tom Jones Pottery and a recommendation! I am so happy I listened! Out of the way, relaxed atmosphere on Fish River with great service, delicious fried shrimp and a beautiful view.Totally what I needed! The shrimp were cooked (and seasoned) perfectly and enjoyed immensely.

    Quiet, nestled deep in Alabama waterways with an ambiance that inspires music for the soul. I ordered the black and blue burger with potato salad and for an appetizer, I added the fried crawfish tail while my buddy Bobby ordered the Big Daddy's burger. Everything was gooder than fried chicken as Delvin Gibson would say. If you are looking for local yocals and yearning for some old Alabama and good grub with live music and bottomless pours.... Welcome to Big Daddy's grill...

    I found this place on yelp and came in based on the recommendations. So glad I did. I came in with a friend and ordered the shrimp basket blackened. I had it with the potato salad. The shrimp were perfectly cooked and the seasoning was very tasty. The potato salad was creamy and had some bacon in it. Also delicious. I loved the feel of the place. Feels like an old fish camp. Great outdoor seating but you can also eat inside. Our server was very knowledgeable and honest about things she liked on the menu. It was such a great experience that I brought my husband back two days later and had another great meal. We both had the blackened shrimp and fish baskets. Delicious. Come in. You will be glad you did.

    If you don't read anything else, know that it's worth the drive and then some. We found this place by accident several years ago and we have talked for a long time about going back. On a recent trip home from Gulf Shores we got rerouted around traffic and ended up in the general area and snapped at the chance to go. I'll start with the service. As soon as you walk in the door, everyone working says hi and welcomes you in. That's really great because the restaurant is kind of hard to find and while it looks cool from the outside, if you're new to the place and don't know what to expect you know you found the right place when you walk in. Our server, Tori (I think that was it, I hope I got it right) was super friendly and accommodating for everything. On to the food. We had the shrimp wrap and the Big Daddy burger. I'm told the wrap was delicious (I'm allergic to shellfish so I don't know), but I can confirm that the burger was amazing. I got it without the sauteed onions, but otherwise as is, and wow! It was so big! Stacked with all sorts of goodies, all of which came together deliciously. I asked for it to be cooked medium, but I think it would have been amazing at medium rare (you just never know sometimes). It was so juicy that by the halfway point I had to give up and use a fork, and I mean that as a huge compliment. The fries were also great. I added a side of the Viper sauce. From the name you may be expecting something super spicy, but instead it is like the best barbecue sauce you will find. Great on the burger, great on the fries. You also get a great view of the water, and you can drive a boat right up. Sorry for the long review but go try it for yourself, you will come away happy!

My wife got just the cheeseburger and it was fantastic, exploding with flavor from the two patties. Cooked to your request. I had the Sioux Burger and I have to say the same. I was full after eating half of it. The Sioux had slaw, gravy, and your normal burger condiments. It was fantastic. The crinkle fries are awesome. Service was good. Only took 15 minutes for them to have them ready. We did these to go. The inside has a few tables and it's cozy. There is also outdoor seating. We are looking forward to trying one of the fish dinners this week.

The only small complaint we would have is the salt content in the dishes (red beans & rice, crawfish etouffee and jambalaya specifically) is very, very high! They taste very delicious of course but this would be our only negative opinion. The low country boil / shrimp boil is awesome! Cheeseburger was great. They definitely have a good thing going here. Try it out! Don't judge a book by its cover, go on in!! I almost forgot about the white chocolate bread pudding! OMGGGG so good!! Maybe even the best I've ever had! Absolutely awesome!

From there, the blackened grouper--the catch of the day--was the star of the evening: perfectly cooked with a satisfying char and depth of flavor, though unevenly seasoned. It was accompanied by creamy cheese grits that leaned a bit mild and fried okra that, while slightly soft, could have used a touch more seasoning as well. A side of hush puppies was promised but never made it to the table--though admittedly, I rarely indulge unless they're something truly special. The atmosphere was relaxed and almost serene, with only a couple of other tables occupied during my visit, though carry-out orders seemed steady. I chose to sit on the patio, where the weather was ideal and the newly installed fly-deterrent fans did an admirable job keeping the table clear--if not entirely keeping the flies from me instead. Still, the food remained untouched by them, which I consider a success. Service was warm and attentive throughout, rounding out a pleasant evening. While a few dishes could have been elevated with bolder seasoning, the overall experience was delightful, and I left satisfied.
