This was a nice place. You get nice views. We ordered the fried green tomatoes, stuffed mushrooms, harbor plate and the half and half with grilled scallops and grilled oysters. The sides were potato salad, broccoli and baked potato. To drink I had the gulf punch and my home girl had the peach daiquiri. I enjoyed the tomatoes, the mushrooms were ok, the grilled scallops were delicious, the potato salad was good and it had eggs in it (which I love). The broccoli was seasoned. My home girl enjoyed her red snapper blackened. The daiquiri was weak and mostly ice. I will say the gulf punch was good but alright now my head is swimmy. Customer service was great when we walked in and our waitress Miranda was fabulous. read more

We enjoy the oysters here and the view! The gumbo is good as well as many other items on the menu. read more

This experience was very much anticipated as we celebrate another great trip around the Sun for my husband! The hostess was lovely as my husband excused himself to wash his hands, I was given several choices. I picked a corner table with a view, while chatting with hostess I said it was his birthday she said they would bring a brownie... i said we don't like the attention and she says , they never sing... cool, thanked her and looked forward. The restaurant is kept up nicely in a maritime aged theme. The thing is you notice it very little because of the amazing view... The appetizer selection was nothing unique except for the chargrilled oysters! They were new to me and they were tasty with an unique texture. Now we move to entrees with cups of gumbo (up charge) as a side for us, and blackened entrees. Most items can be fried, blackened, grilled etc. Hubby had the platter (blackened) that boasts a large portion of various items. Crab cakes were creamy and delicious. The scallops were tender and flavorful. Along with gulf shrimp and catfish... which was also my entree in the half and half. Excellent! Our cocktails were layered, beautifully presented, but they took a while to get to the table. We had the oysters and we were enjoying the gumbo when they finally arrived. At the conclusion 5 employees come singing loudly to our table. I am sure I looked shocked, and hubby smiled, a lot. Hostess came up but the song was almost over! Apparently this was a new experience for hubby and he really liked it. We all had a good laugh!!! This is a pricey restaurant with many entrees I would like to try in the future. Definitely a place worth trying! read more

My wife and I ate here twice last week. We had raw oysters and. charbroiled oysters. The second visit we had crab claws, shrimp and salads. All dishes were very good. The service was also good. They are celebrating their 50th anniversary and have raw oysters at half price. If you like seafood you will love this place. If not stop in and gave a burger. You won't be disappointed!!! read more

We got great service, but I think the cooks were rushing . The stuffed shrooms were undercooked, and so was the crab cake . But the chargrilled oysters were excellent . read more

We had a nice experience here. Our waiter was friendly and efficient, and the food was very good. We had the gumbo, shrimp poboy, and stuffed mushrooms. I definitely recommend this place for the food and the view! read more

Not so great. I've been here a few times before, and it was okay. This time, I got raw oysters and the blackened snapper. Raw oysters were decent because they were some of the more plump oysters I've had, but they didn't have too much taste. The blackened snapper was overcooked - chewy and tough. The crawfish/cajun sauce on top of it didn't seem very fresh. I know most folks won't order sides of broccoli and green beans like I did, but these needed more flavor. They needed to be slow cooked and simmered with bacon or something rather than just simply boiled. read more

Visiting the area for the first time and this was the first place we spotted. I had the grouper and my husband had the fried oysters. Both dishes were amazing. Service was great too. The restaurant was a fun and laid back place. read more

Excellent views, food and service ! We will be back for sure. Had the pork chop and collard greens and baked potato

Food was great had the gumbo soup, a very plentiful bowl ..enough for two . Mushrooms stuffed with crabmeat in a Parmesan sauce could Have ate two servings so good . Also the shrimp po boy loaded with shrimp. Service was excellent waitress very helpful. As an added bonus we were there for the sunset absolutely spectacular. Highly recommended. The staff made sure we did not miss the sunset. I would give them a 10.******* read more

We planned to just stop in for a drink, but we ended up sharing the broiled scallops and were surprised by how generous the portion size was. They were so good!! Our server was absolutely hilarious and they had a solid drink selection. Great view of course! read more

We watched the sun go down from the deck. Everything was delicious. We will be back. Service was very good. We got a quart of gumbo to take home. This is a must if you are in Biloxi. read more

A Biloxi staple. You need the gumbo and any red fish platter. Bloody Mary is another must. The crab fondue was incredibly rich and served with fried pita chips (Southern style!). I *had* to order some chargrilled oysters and I'm glad I did. I recommend ordering a dozen vs a half dozen as the price isn't much more for the full dozen ... and you'll probably eat them all anyway. ;-) If it's not too windy, ask to sit outside by the water to catch a closer view of the boats coming in and out of the marina. The atmosphere is very laid back at McElroy's so bring the whole family. read more

My wife and I ordered the chargrilled oysters and they were outstanding! The oysters were tender, juicy and a little bit of smoke made them incredible. We ordered the grilled mahi for an entree and we were disappointed. The fish was overcooked and dry. In all fairness due to time constraints we did not complain to give them a chance to make it right which i am sure they would have. read more

The atmosphere was sticky. The air was sticky. The tables were sticky. Air circulation was poor. It smelled musty.We had fried shrimp and oysters. The food was greasy and over cooked. Our selections came with a salad. The "salad" was warm and soggy. Best and only reason I gave it 2 stars was, is that the service was good and the servers were very kind. read more

Great location. Service was fine - very polite people. Totally reasonable prices. Food was gross. I had the "crab dressing po boy". Maybe that's how they're supposed to taste. I dunno, never had one till now. Maybe they're not for me or maybe this one suck. I dunno. I'd eat here again but Im not ordering a crab dressing anything for as long as I live. read more

We ended up walking by this place when going from casino to casino. It was so cute/the view was amazing, so we couldn't resist. Also, we wanted to try the oysters. Well, the place was packed and they made an exception and let us eat at the bar with Richard, our bartender. He was hilarious and despite being very busy took great care of us. The great food was the cherry on top. read more

Service was great. Crab claws were tasty and cooked well. CrabCAKE Biloxi cost $30 and came with 1 crabby patty. This 1 was the least favorable from all the places I had. A lot of shells in the 1 cake. Key lime Colada was really good. read more

The waitress was awesome. The food was alright. The view and atmosphere was awesome. Definitely recommend!

Great oysters and scallops and fries. Also had cup of gumbo. Side salad could be jazzed up a little with different kinds of lettuce instead of iceberg only. Very good service. read more

It's a cool place to look out the windows at the ocean or sit on the deck with a beer and the service was great. The food tastes like it came frozen straight off a Sysco truck. I ordered a blueberry martini which was the color and flavor of a melted blueberry shaved ice, unnaturally blue and very sugary sweet. Also, very little alcohol. Go for the view, beer and maybe some oysters and shrimp. Don't order anything that requires a chef or mixologist. read more

I was interested in trying here due to my uncle coming here before they relocated and said he couldn't find a better seafood restaurant since. When we went I couldn't believe how much better the food was than any place in Mobile. The waitress we had was either hiding her true feelings or she was genuinely happy to work here. I can say I'm glad where they relocated to the sunset on the water was breathtaking. I can't wait to go back read more

Food is excellent every time. Flounder is our favorite. Seafood gumbo delicious. Shrimp and grits was very good. Service was helpful and attentive. On the water. A little difficult for handicapped but worth the effort. There is an elevator but a long ramp to get there. Still it's well worth it. read more

Great place to enjoy your meal overlooking the harbor. Great friendly staff. Delicious gumbo! read more

Busy place! Our server was knowledgeable and patient with our questions. Being from the Midwest, I didn't know what Argentinian Reds were. They were the special and that is what I ordered. They were delicious! Very buttery but the garlic toast soaked up the rich shrimp sauce. Great place to eat...there were other tempting menu items so we will need to come back and try them soon. I loved the crab wall hanging made from beer bottle caps and we had a table looking out at the Gulf. Nice! read more

Coming from Colorado, we try to sample all the local waters treasure. Ambience - right next to the docks high above it all. We sat on the porch. It was nice with a breeze. Service - very helpful with local faire suggestions. Gave us plenty of time to enjoy our meal. Thank you for the attention, we really appreciate you. The server called hubby 'Baby' - a southern term of endearment, so we played with that all evening long. Food - Had the shrimp and grits-Biloxi style, which we later learned they won an award for....not the dish I was expecting but when in Biloxi you do it their way. Hubby had the gumbo and liked it. Teen had the shrimp and enjoyed every bite. We'll catch y'all on our next visit. read more

Simple and straightforward nothing fancy, if this is what you want then McElroy's should work. Had the fried shrimp platter, just a little spice in the batter, fries and hush puppies were simple and plenty. Service was great and the sunset view was perfect. read more

great place to sit outside and watch the boats. the service is fast and friendly but the food has really declined. i remember when this was a great location to get fresh seafood. bagged lettuce , bland gumbo and fried shrimp that taste as if they have been fried in old grease do not make for a great experience. very disappointed read more

Our server Allen was great. The food was awesome fresh and seasoned perfectly. The view was spectacular

My husband and I took our daughters to grab a late supper on a Tuesday night. The kids were worn out and grumpy. The staff was great and brought out snacks while we were waiting for our food. They were friendly and accommodating throughout our visit. The food was delicious. It was still light outside when we got there and the view was very nice. We walked out noting that we would definitely be back when we're in the area again. read more

The crab claws and the salad was good. I asked for grilled shrimp on my platter and everything was fried. The shrimp and grits were not good at all. My husband asked for sweet tea but got water instead. Our server was nice and polite. read more

Great place! Food was wonderful. Servers and staff was superb. For a beautiful day setting this place was a great find. A little pricey but is worth it. Lots of great seating spots. Pic ops! They have an elevator so dont let the height of the building turn you away. Its worth it. read more

I make sure to enjoy a meal here every time I'm in Biloxi. The service is good and the food is also fresh! Definitely try the oysters! They are some of the best freshest, newly caught oysters I've had. The bartender is always so sweet and makes good drinks! Everyone is very friendly and accommodating. Everything I've ordered has been served fresh made & hot. Nothing tastes old or "reheated". Definitely stop in if you're in the area. Sit outside or by a window for a great view of the Marina. read more

McElroy's Harbor House - Raw oysters - Seafood Near Me - Biloxi, Mississippi

We decided on McElroy's Harbor House while staying at The Hard Rock Casino and Hotel. Every restaurant in the HR was a 2 hour wait...even the Hard Rock Cafe. I guess we should have made a reservation. Oh well. We walked next door to McElroy's and got to see all of the shrimping boats along the water. The restaurant is high on stilts and a couple of flights of stairs to get to the top. Once there, it looks like a typical no-nonsense seafood shack. Nothing fancy here, I can assure you. We had a short 15 minute wait, timed perfectly with a top-shelf margarita from the bar, and were seated at one of their many tables. We started with crab claws and Gumbo. The crab claws were delicious, but the Gumbo was incredible. That is what Gumbo should taste like!!! Well done. For entrees we ordered Royal Reds, and The Fisherman's Platter. The platter comes with shrimp, oysters, scallops catfish and crabmeat dressing. We ordered it fried, but they will grill it or blacken it, as well. All was tasty. We had to send the Reds back because they were a bit undercooked, but they brought out a new batch promptly. All in all, a nice meal with good service. If you are looking for a no-frills seafood restaurant, you can't do much better than McElroy's Harbor House. RECOMMENDED read more

The food was overcooked which made my shrimp tough and rubbery! My hush puppies were like rocks. My salad wasn't impressive. Overpriced food for nothing! read more

We were all pleased with our food. Was a little higher priced than I liked. Each person averaged $35. Our waitress was excellent. Dark haired lady. Very tentative but not in your face. How a waitress is suppose to be. The decor was mediocre. Little more imagination would bring it to the next level. Clean which is what was important. Music was pretty good. You'd feel comfortable dressed however. I'd take my friends here. ‍ read more
