Husband and I have been become to Cosmo's Restaurant for a while now. It's our favorite Restaurant on Canal road. We had been to the State Park hiking. It was very hot and humid on this day. So, I order a Coconut and Pineapple Mojito, so cool and refreshing. We like to try something different each time we visit. Our waitress recommended the Chicken Roulade. We both ordered the Chicken Roulade. It was really delirious. Waitresses/manager also came by twice to ask us how we liked our food. Restaurant is clean and health rating is excellent too. Love all beautiful painting. Restaurant has covered outdoor patio and live band most of time. read more

We enjoyed the food at this restaurant. Easy to find seating and they had a lovely cover band playing out on the patio. Family friendly ambiance although I wouldn't describe this as a casual restaurant. Service was great. We enjoyed the savory cheesecake a lot. The crab cakes were just ok. We also tried the shrimp po boy--delish. Overall a good choice for a solid meal! read more

Cosmo's - One of the Best Meals of Our Trip We visited Cosmo's for dinner during Spring Break with our family of four, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The restaurant was busy but we didn't have to wait for a table, which was a great start. The space was clean with a fun, energetic atmosphere. Our server was fantastic--very friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to offer recommendations when we asked. She really elevated the experience. We started with the Firecracker Shrimp, which was a generous portion for all four of us and absolutely delicious. We also tried The Cosmo sushi roll, which didn't disappoint. For my entrée, our server recommended the Pecan Redfish over the fresh catch of the day, and I'm so glad I took her advice--it was hands down the best meal I had on the entire trip. The redfish was cooked perfectly, and the sides of asparagus and Parmesan risotto paired beautifully. The risotto is a bit rich, but in the best way--it definitely left me full and satisfied. The pricing felt very fair for the quality of food and overall experience. Cosmo's delivers on both flavor and value. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant and look forward to coming back the next time we're in Orange Beach. read more

This is owned by the same folks that run Cobalt and it's location is not as fantastic or fancy but it also is usually easier to get in and out of. They have a nice size patio area along with a good indoor dining area along with a good size bar. The service here is almost always fantastic with the occasional and rare exception. The menu and ambiance seem even more casual than Cobalt while some of the food items are the same or similar they do have many unique items distinct from Cobalt like sushi. They have a nice discount on the sushi rolls at certain times of the day and this is certainly some of the best sushi in the area. I'm not a big fan of the burger here but the Firecracker Shrimp (which seem to be on the menu of all the restaurants this group owns) are usually a good appetizer in moderation as the sauce is very rich. The one really huge disappointment I've had here is the shrimp etouffee which absolutely wouldn't cut it in Louisiana! All the other food I've had here has been good to fantastic so they just need to do some additional work on that etouffee! I would be quite happy to be their taste tester and I'm also known as making a pretty amazing shrimp and crawfish etouffee myself so maybe I would even share some of my secrets to help them do a vastly better version of etouffee. Overall I'm a big fan of this place and all the other restaurants this restaurant group owns. I even have a YouTube video about this joint you can find on the NOLA Gent Channel! read more

Pretty cool place with a good craft beer selection and drink options. Several items on the menu looked fantastic and I wish I could have tried more than we did. We sat at the bar and ordered the BBQ crab claws that we had been reading so much about. Sautéed in a BBQ creole butter sauce. The sauce was spot on and like many reviews we should have gotten extra bread for dipping. That's about all that was worth eating. The crab claws were very rubbery and difficult to eat. The wife even said they had a strange fishy taste. I was really looking forward to this place and maybe we just got a bad batch. Won't know because we probably will not be back. Headed to Docs now to finish our lunch. read more

This was our first time visiting this establishment. The service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere is fun and colorful. I had the blackened chicken fried rice, which was very tasty! My wife had the salmon salad. I would recommend Cosmo's! read more

Food was great. I loved my redfish. Everyone in my group had a good meal including the kids. I loved how the dishes were artsy but accessible to everyone. Our server was great she kept our glasses full the whole time and answered all of our questions. She even gave my Mom her recommendation on how to order her fish. Restaurant was pet friendly as long as the dogs stayed outside. The walls were covered in local art that was available for purchase. 10/10 will be back. read more

So disappointed in my meal. Looking forward to eating here and then I get my food and after trying to eat it, I was looking forward to going somewhere else to eat. Ordered fresh catch which was swordfish. I ordered it blackened and when it came out it had very little seasoning on it at all and it was dry and tough and raw all in the same piece of fish. How you do that I don't know. So I let the sweet waitress know about this and instead of a replacement piece of fish I chose to try the grilled shrimp. Terrible shrimp also! Smelled terrible and tasted awful, could tell it was old. So left unsatisfied ready to find somewhere good to eat. Service was excellent though and the place had a nice atmosphere about it. Just need better food. read more

First visit to Cosmo's today. We were not disappointed. We brought our dog, Ellie along with us and the staff was very welcoming to her. We sat on the covered porch which was surrounded by cute shops. Each one of the shops and restaurant are named for the restaurant owner's dogs. Our server was Lee and she was very prompt, friendly and made great suggestions for us. The food was great and the service was even greater! Thanks Lee for a fun and tasty lunch! read more

Looking for a local restaurant with great service and food? Look no more - Cosmos Restaurant provided that and more! My first visit, we were a party of two. We were there during rush so concerned we may be put in a loud area as there are several different areas for dining. We were pleasantly surprised they chose a nice quiet corner and a perfect place for dinner! I ordered crab cakes and my friend ordered the shrimp po- boy. I replaced the rice that normally comes with the crab cakes to the Parmesan risotto! Both meals were delicious! I personally, being a southerner, would have preferred the crab cakes to have a little spice to them with paprika or cayenne. But, that's just me! Well done staff, cooks and owners! read more

We went here twice during our most recent trip because we had such a great experience! The staff was super nice and attentive. The food was really fresh and comes fast (which is clutch because we have kids!) The atmosphere is one of the best family friendly spots in town- you can sit outside on the patio and listen to music or sit inside. Genuinely, I can't emphasize enough, these people love their jobs and it was really special for my young family to get out and have the best evening ever. read more

Food- I had the mahi mahi blackened on sourdough and it was great. Not sure of the sauce but it compliments the fish very well. Great side salad all fresh. Had a cheese dip app with some pita chips that was great. I was too wrapped up in my meal to ask, but I believe the salmon salad was great. The fettuccine I heard was awesome and another in our party had the salad with tomatoes and some nice large mozzarella balls. Will definitely go back if we have a chance this week. Told the wife she knocked it out of the park on this one. Service was great and friendly Lee(sp?) was very attentive without being overbearing. Ambiance was almost perfect ( no dogs when we were there) seriously though we've got no complaints at all. I even got a hat even though I'm not much for souvenirs. read more

"One way, this means you!" great traffic sign in the parking lot. Which was interesting to navigate but not difficult. Cosmo's isn't located in the touristy area and had a real classic hometown vibe. It was refreshing to be around the wonderful locals who inhabit this fantastic place. The fish of the day was swordfish and it was prepared perfectly to our liking. The crab cake entree was filling and good. The firecracker shrimp was salty and underwhelming. However, we topped it all off with some delicious crème brûlée. The service was fantastic and the live music was on point. It wasn't obtrusive and loud. Very pet friendly patio and our dog had a good time experiencing the positive vibes with us. 10/10 would visit again. read more

We have been to Cosmo's several times, and it's always good. They have a large outdoor seating area, and even when it's crowded the louse isn't overwhelming. Our server was helpful and answered questions about the specials and other menu items, I had grilled swordfish which was delicious. My wife had a rainbow Sushi roll which she said was good. read more

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I wish I could remember our waitress name but she kept our party of 10 laughing all the way! We came from Nashville TN and someone recommended this place and it became one of our favorites in Orange Beach! The food was amazing as well! I just took pics of what my family ordered but our table had sushi and other things as well and everybody loved what we got! We also went on a Wednesday and got a free cookie for COOKIE MONSTER WEDNESDAY and my kids loved that the most! read more

The food here is amazing! Clean and inside/outside seating. We sat outside on their comfortable, shaded, breezy deck. Friendly staff that checked on us often. We started with Duck & Andouille Sausage Gumbo that was rich, decadent, and absolutely delicious! My entree was the Grilled Shrimp lunch served over creamy risotto. Perfectly spiced shrimp. My husband's Black and Bleu Shrimp Wrap with Asparagus was also delicious. Spicy, juicy shrimp in a creamy Bleu Cheese sauce with lettuce. The asparagus was cooked to perfection! Also had a small Caesar Salad that was large enough to share between the two of us. Next time we're in the area we will most definitely return! Highly recommend this place! read more

Cosmo's is one in a big family of restaurants under the same ownership. We set out hoping to have dinner at a sister restaurant, Cobalt, but the wait was over an hour and we had kids who were a little too squirmy for that. BuzzCatz is another restaurant in the group and was one of my family's favorite finds for breakfast. We showed up to Cosmo's for dinner around 8 and got in with no wait. I was really excited about the Cobalt menu so was a little bummed when the dishes I was eyeing the hardest didn't happen to have similar counterparts on the Cosmo's menu. We started with a sushi roll (tips and tails) and an appetizer (blue crab and corn Cala) and they were both good. I got the lobster andouille mac and cheese. It was also good. I think we all enjoyed our food, it just wasn't necessarily a standout location for me. Our son got grilled fish for dinner and it was a great looking piece with mashed sweet potatoes, so they definitely don't skimp out on the kids! I may have been the one in my party who was the least impressed, but again, the food was good just not my favorite compared to a lot of other great meals on our trip. read more

Best thing about Cosmos is Jennifer! She bartends there. Takes great care of her customers. Food is great. Love the gumbo. Their soups are fabulous. Chef has been there 14 years. Firecracker shrimp also superb. And, their sunset menu (smaller portions for less money) is a nice option. Hall read more

My wife and I decided to do something different on Thursday so we drove the 35 minutes to Orange Beach to try cosmos. We are there approximately 2 PM and there were only a few tables seated. We had a very attentive and professional waitress! Thank you! My wife and I ordered adult beverages While we perused the menu. For an appetizer we decided on their cheese dip. We thought the cheese dip was very good! Wish the seasoning on the fresh pita chips would've been dispersed better. My wife decided on their muffaletta while I asked the waitress what was the one thing I should have if I'm only gonna be there once. She suggested the poached Seabass that is wrapped in a banana leaf. Our meals came out relatively quickly, and we were absolutely delicious. We might have to make the drive again. read more

Visited for dinner. It was at the end of the season after schools were back in session so there was no crowd. We ate inside. Ordered the nachos with a tuna and a Caesar salad small. A tuna on the nachos was excellent and the sauce they put on the chips was fantastic. The small Caesar salad was big enough for a meal and they added blue cheese to it, which made it really great. Also ordered the crab claws. I have to say they were one of the best we've had in a long time. We got a young waiter. He came back several times before the meal and during the meal and after the meal, and when we asked him about some selections, he gave us his opinion which we found an accurate. The ambience was nice and fairly quiet. We will come back on next vacation. read more

Cosmo's is a favorite restaurant that is always on our list when we go to Orange Beach. We have tried several menu items over the years. A favorite is the tournedos, though they have changed this time we visited so I can't speak for the new way but the old way was AWESOME! I tried the savory cheesecake for the first time and it was delicious. Definitely worth trying. We also just realized they had sushi. The cosmo roll was great! My parents ordered the Blue Crab and Corn Calas and they were also a good appetizer that I would order again. I had the Surf and Turf with a crab cake. It was ok, my steak was overcooked and the crab cake was just ok. My parents ordered theirs with grilled shrimp and they loved it. The Mac and Cheese was good and cheesy. read more
