We heard Boogie's has good fish so we decided to give them a try on this Lenten Friday. It was a…read moregood call and we were not disappointed. I decided to try the walleye with a side of fries and chili. I thought the chili was mediocre but everyone has a different idea of what good chili is so I'll cut them some slack. The fries were also mediocre. They were lukewarm and had no crisp, obviously had been in the warming tray a bit too long. So why a 4 star rating? Three things: the wait staff was very good, friendly and attentive, the walleye was absolutely delicious, perfectly breaded and cooked, and the meal was very reasonably priced. I mentioned the issue with the fries to the waitress and she told me to be sure to let her know next time and she would be sure to get them fresh, and she really meant it. All in all, a very good experience and we'll certainly be returning.

What a disappointment to see they changed their menu. Only…read morecan get fried chicken on Sunday now. They no longer have sweet potatoes. Green beans had no bacon or seasoning as they usually do.

The food quality is always consistent, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly. This time, I felt for our server, as he was running constantly didn't seem to have much down time. Our Mom sent her steak back, as it was a little overcooked, so she couldn't chew it easily with her dentures. The new steak came out right away and was perfect. When I was paying the bill, our server was chatting with my sister, he seemed genuinely delighted that she spoke Spanish, and thanked her multiple times for being so kind when she sent the steak back (gotta wonder how other people treat him when sending something back). Mom got a steak, and asked for fries instead of rice and beans, which they accommodated no problem, as well as a small margarita, as she really enjoys them there. Sister got a taco salad with chicken. I got a taco salad with ground beef and Dos Equis Amber. My older son got fajitas. My younger son got a cheese quesadilla. Everything was good. And we went in a little early to beat the dinner rush. The place was packed by the time we left.

Unfortunately that was the good. I often can even tell if this place is open or not, I think it's closed much of the time when I drive by. The food was. Well I am just going to say it. It was very bland. Their solution for bland food is.....cheese sauce. Not vegetable, not spices, just more sauce. I don't want to drag this place, but the food was not good. I'll leave it at that.

Anyway, the best place that I have found to rekindle those memories and enjoy a simple meal of Clam Strips is Gulf Shores. I can order them as a meal with two sides and they also offer them as an appetizer. If I just want a light lunch, after shopping near by, the appetizer hits the spot. When I order the dinner, my sides are always Hush Puppies and Fries. Yes, it makes my meal all fried foods, but it is so damn good. My service has always been attentive and friendly.

At my most recent visit, I did two things that I have never done at Moussalli's. First, I sat at…read moretable instead of the bar and second thing is that I did not order a steak. It was a special night, a group of foodie friends got together after not seeing each other for a while. It was a group of 11 and the accommodations and service couldn't have been better. Our server was extremely professional and didn't mind that it was 6 different checks. As our server was telling us the Daily Specials and the Catch of the Day, I immediately knew what I wanted. Whenever I hear, Pan Seared Sea Scallops or anything with Scallops, I'm sold. My scallops (4) were huge and the Risotto that they were served on was moist and flavorful. I also learned that they offer half bottles of wine and one of them is my favorite. I love, Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon. I'm probably going to wine hell because I paired it with my seafood instead of a white wine. Also, I want to give a shout out for their, Crab Stuffed Mushrooms. I've been known to stop by and have them and a Martini and call it a meal. When: February 19, 2026 Why: Meeting up with friends

We made reservations ahead of time and were seated right away when we arrived. The waitress was great. They bring out a herb bread with butter. We ordered the bone marrow and crab cakes to start off. Both were good. Caesar salad was also good. Do not order the french onion soup. It was the worst we have ever eaten. It was basically perfectly clean bowl with a light brown liquid and dried up croutons and tried to melt a cheese in it. Tasted horrible and was not hot/warm. Okay now back to the good. Steaks were fabulous - top 10 for sure. Lobster tail was good and the asparagus was cooked perfect. Dessert was good but the creme brûlée was in a really shallow dish. Wish the dish was bigger/deeper. There was some kind of peanut butter chocolate dessert that was phenomenal- yummy! The inside was nice and not too loud. We will definitely go back minus the soup.

Then garlic cheesy bread to toasted ravioli. Then a shrimp in sauce. Followed by bone in wings. The wings I believe were buffalo style. The garlic Cheese bread was amazing. But I had to behave. lol more food was coming. We had their house side salad which was nice and refreshing. Then the main food was set up more cater style. You had the options of moscaholi, tortellini, chicken Parmesan, and a beef bruschetta? All were good and fulfilling. Then they ended it with cheese cake. Huge slices we had food left over they allowed us to box up the rest to take home. To drink I had a Bellini which was nice and refreshing. Some of my coworkers had the chocolate martini they loved a lot!! I'd love to go back on my own time to eat here. I've heard great things about their egg plant... Parking is street or there's a lot in the back area. I love their Tiffany lamps in the main dinning area. We sat in the back room that's used for events. If your company has a party here. They did great!!

Before I could think of asking for something she was bringing it. She kept our drinks filled. She asked if we wanted parmesean cheese on our salads and pasta. These put the cheese on our food. We were going to ask for some to go boxes. But she asked us first. Then she said she would take our food and box it for us. She labeled each one and neatly wrapped it in clear plastic.
