  I went here for a late lunch/early dinner and was amazed at the whole experience. As a person with celiac, all the gluten free options were amazing, and tasted AMAZING! Kemonia was our server and she was fantastic. Very sweet and funny, truly made the experience 10x better. My father wanted a burger he saw a photo of, come to find out it was an old special they aren’t running anymore but the chef accommodated and made it anyways. The staff was amazing and the food was even better. The crawfish was amazing, all the seafood was fresh. Will be coming here again 10/10!!!

  Amazing meal! Without a doubt, this is the best food on The Causeway!!!. The new owner and her brother are from Jamaica and the shrimp tacos I had were so fresh along with the vegetable toppings, reminding me slightly of Jamaica! The bread pudding and key lime pie were both fantastic. The Grouper bites were served over rice and just as tasty as everything else we tried. The staff were excellent, flexible, extremely nice, and very professional. This is now one of my favorites on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay.

  The service was AMAZING here. The second my grandmother and I got out of the car the staff was welcoming and ready to help. My grandmother needed a wheelchair to get up intot the place and they helped us with that. Our server, Kemonie was super friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job overall. We loved the food too. My grandmother has celiac and they have SO many gluten free options. If you have a gluten intolerant, this place is super accommodating. The atmosphere is great here too, overlooking the bay and beach volleyball courts. Would absolutely recommend and we will be coming back!

  This restaurant is an absolute delight. We’ve been back twice in 5 days! This is a gluten free paradise. Across our two visits, I tried the shrimp and grits, fried shrimp basket, bread pudding, chocolate torte, fried okra, and sweet potato fries. All of it gluten free. Separate fryer to prevent cross contamination. I literally bought a t-shirt because I loved my experience so much. Our servers Sonique and Robin were so generous and kind and patient with our little one too! We loved chatting with Duane too! We will be back! Almost forgot my cocktail, the spritz and giggles!!!!! It was delicious!

  We decided to give The Elite Pier House a try, and overall it was a pleasant experience. The menu offers a great variety at reasonable prices, making it easy for everyone to find something they'll enjoy. Crab Claws: Fresh and cooked well, great portion size. Crab Bisque: Absolutely delicious! Rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Easily the standout dish of the meal. Garden Salad: Fresh ingredients with a nice variety of vegetables. Pick 2 Meal (Fried Maui, Fried Chicken, Fried Okra, Smoked Gouda Grits):** The food was cooked well, but overall the flavors were a little bland. The breading had an interesting rosemary flavor that was different. The smoked Gouda grits were creamy and paired well with the meal. Redfish with Crab: The fish was cooked nicely and flaky, but it could have used a little more seasoning to really make the flavors pop. The asparagus was cooked perfectly, and the fries were hot and crispy. Desserts: Key Lime Cake was light, moist, and refreshing—a great way to end the meal. Flourless chocolate torte was rich, dense, and perfect for chocolate lovers. The hidden gem of the entire experience was our server, Shanique. She was friendly, always smiling, attentive without hovering, and extremely knowledgeable about the menu. She made several recommendations and checked on us throughout the meal, making us feel genuinely welcome. Would I return? Absolutely. While I'd love to see a little more seasoning in some of the dishes, the menu has enough variety that I'd definitely come back to try more. The excellent service alone made the visit worthwhile.
