Visiting Alabama for the weekend with a group of friends. We all had the taste for seafood. The…read morerestaurant is located just off the highway in a gravel parking lot with lots of advertising signs lining the exterior of the building. Thanks for the GPS or we would have passed it. Inside is one open area with basic wooden tables and chairs. We were seated right away. Waitress said it was exceptionally slow evening. Service was excellent as she was attentive ensuring we were ok. Their menu had a nice variety for everyone more than what's posted on Yelp. Sorry, I didn't take an updated picture of it. Gulf Shrimp looked and tasted like regular shrimps from the grocery store. Nothing spectacular. Baked potato was good. Surprised they gave artificial whipped butter tho instead of real butter. Hush puppies were ok. One commented Mac n cheese wasn't that great but everything else was. Another commented the pasta was very flavorful but a bit watery and noodles overcooked. We didn't have any adult beverages so can't comment on it. Younger one had an ice cream sundae and said it was very good. Price was reasonable as well. We'll consider going back when in the area again. Recommend trying especially the catfish.

Ambience was family style and welcoming. Everyone was friendly. Fish was good, fried as request, you know ya girl likes her fish fried hard. We also ordered shrimp and grits, my guy said they were good and rich, he's from Louisiana he has standards lol. Almost forgot the gator bites.. I had pictures so I remembered lol. Delicious. Seasoned and fried perfectly. Not to hard, not too soft, perfect. We'd definitely circle the block if we found ourselves in the area again

Never got crackers. Inside is basic kinda dark. Arrived about 5:50pm looked over menu and ordered by 6pm, got food about 6:45pm. We were a party of 2 adults and a child. These is not a please to eat if you have kids due to long wait time, and to be honest I almost order food to be door dash here so we could eat before our food got cooked here.

I had 1/2 lbs. of shrimp that came with potatoes, sausage, boiled eggs, and corn. The star of the show, however, was the sauce! At one point, I actually grabbed a spoon and just ate the sauce. Delicious food and the staff were super, super courteous and friendly!

Bottom line: going back to "The Ark" very dissatisfied with flavorless food and slow kitchen!!My…read moreson and I were told about this restaurant which is close to CMP Talledega Marksmanship Park. We have in past gone to "The Ark" A bit smaller, less emphasis on alcohol but excellent. We came fish market on way out of town since near Marksmanship park for "D Day" Rifle matches. Unfortunately, bottom line is the food was "OK" but IMHO we both agreed the food and service was much better at "The Ark" ; our meals tonight were bland and kitchen slow. Took almost 40 minutes to get our meal. My son's "chicken sandwich " was two chicken tenders. My 2 whole catfish dinner 1 side (green beans) was fresh hot but not much flavor. Service was good. The menu is very extensive with steaks etc . But menu was overwhelming too. While this may be popular with locals, we prefer "The Ark" smaller yet just as busy, better tasting food and more desirable sides and food came up much quicker. Don't expect to return as we agree "The Ark" is hands down tastier food.

I did the crab and shrimp dip, it's not really a dip. It honestly would be nice on top of grits like a shrimp and grits. It's more of a gravy consistency. For an entree i did a hamburger keeping it simple. I cannot really judge a seafood place for not having an amazing hamburger so I'll move on. No one in our group really enjoyed their food. It wasn't anything to write home about.

The food is pretty decent , a four and a half mostly but everything else has gone down in my opinion. The place was so very loud this time that we could barely hear friends sitting right across from you. Besides the noise, the service was pretty bad. Took drink orders right away but we had been there almost 30 minutes and had to beg to get orders taken. Then at the end, waitress disappeared. We finally had to pay up at the bar. Really 20 people should have had a dedicated waiter or at least one not so busy! Last thing was I thought the whole restaurant needs a deep cleaning, from floors, menus, rest rooms to tables. Just not pristine. And required 20% tip for groups was not earned! Highlight was shrimp and grits for $13.99 was delish and hubby enjoyed Shrimp Alfredo. Waiter charged hubby $4,99 for a beer when menu clearly had price at $3,99! Only a dollar but just not great service.
