OT: Lunch between Mobile-Gulf Shores

[hullabaloodog]

Having family Christmas at the beach this year. My in-laws are flying into Mobile around noon and I'm looking for somewhere non-touristy to take them to lunch between Mobile and Gulf Shores. We have been down there a bunch, but don't really go out to eat when we are there. This will be their first time in the area. Thoughts?

Doesn't really satisfy the non-touristy part but I like http://www.felixsfishcamp.com/

Looks like it would be a terrible tourist trap but I've had people from Mobile take me there twice and it was good both times.

The Original Oyster House on the east side of Mobile just off I-10

Here's one I recommend to anyone in the Daphne area. Guido's in the downtown area. They had the best shrimp and grits I have ever had.

No question, Felix's. Great food, great service, great views. Don't be fooled by outside appearance, very nice inside.

Thanks y'all

I've always wondered about Felix's when passing through. Looks like we may give it a try.

 

[giddyup.sixpack]

The Tin Top in Bon Secour - no question

Great locals place as well.

 

[hullabaloodog]

Great rec. We've been there before for dinner. Will probably try to do that at some point this week.

You will not go wrong with either Felix's or Original Oyster House.

This. and they have a lot of great seafood options on their menu. Awesome restaurant

From there, just take HW98 south then east to Foley... little bit longer drive but a nice drive

or you can take 104 east through Silverhill (dont speed) to connect with HW59.

So you are having Christmas in the most touristy place in the southeast US but don't want to take them anywhere touristy to eat? Since you never go out to eat when you go to Gulf Shores just impress them by cooking a steak on your Green Egg, serving them Bo Bounds approved IPAs from your YETI cooler and take in the view from Turquoise Place.

Bo knows..

My Yeti is packed and ready, sir. And I'll be meeting Bo at Cosimo's to pick up our TP condo keys in exchange for the steaks he's been dry aging since last Christmas. A few glasses of Pinot Noir, some laughs, and a good cigar will be had. All in a day's work.

 

[DamnGoodDawg]

Now Cosimo's is the ****, LOL. Very good food. Great atmosphere.
