    No words except yum
    Angie T.

    Buoys is so my kind of place. It's got everything I love. A nautical theme, an awesome and effective staff, great food, good music and a greatly great vibe.. I just love how the building is made to look like it's a boat. That's right up my alley for sure but the food...oh the food. We got the buffalo shrimp app and fought over it (not kidding) and the burger and shrimp/fish tacos with the intention to split those too. Look, don't judge me but I wasn't about to share my tacos with anyone once I tasted them. I like the guy but umm, you know. The service is promt, friendly and fast. Food is almost perfect and the atmosphere could not be better. Go :)

    Brisket with baked beans and waffle fries. I would absolutely bring a friend and eat here again. (Roughly $15) Drink was too sugary!

    The bar has unique mixed drinks. However, I'm a simple gal and would prefer the alcohol without all the added sugar/bullspit. If you're like me, pass on the fancy stuff and go straight for the beers on tap. Brisket was amazing--tender and flavorful. Waffle fries were crispy on the outside just like they're supposed to be. Live music on Friday night was amazing, and so was the ocean view. Prices are not too bad especially for the ambiance. I would come back!

    Location, location, location. This beach themed restaurant and bar is located in the heart of downtown Bay St. Louis on the Bay. The main room is located on the ground level with plenty of tables and a full bar. Up the stairs is an open air bar with stunning views of the Bay. Try the Buoy which is a fruity coconut frozen drink concoction. Yum! The menu is mostly sandwiches and fried seafood. I had the jalapeño poppers for an appetizer and they were delicious. The restaurant does have live music on the outdoor stage. Fun, relaxing scenic place.

    Great views...check! Nice people...check! Nice owner serving beers on the rooftop bar talking about all the work he has put into the expansion...bonus! Nautical themed fun waterfront restaurant bar with music just prime for DRANKIN. I didn't try the food but seemed like the menu is somewhat limited. But for drinks on a nice sunny day this is the spot. So many areas an nooks.

    Seriously, the best pork I have ever tasted! Adding the fries,sauces, and green onions just made it even better! So delicious!!! The customer service was above and beyond as well! I will be back for more very soon!

    So I've lived here in the Kiln for about 5 years. Never ate here. Recently started working next…read moredoor. Anyways... first 3-4 days of work I went in occasionally for a drink/food etc... My fiancé did as well. Every time either of us went there we were met with glares, rude remarks and sub-par customer service. For example, one day he came by to buy me breakfast and bring it over to me... He asked a question, was met with a dry and crass remark. He said " I'm sorry I've never been here before." And the response he was given was "clearly..." Well to top it off I asked about a job, or hours they may have available due to needing work currently. Bills are over whelming and I'm usually open to most opportunities to make some extra money to support my family. First, I asked. I did ask about a job. For days no one called, and wasn't really any direct answer. Next, I received a call from the owner at night stating I could come in, make 8/hr and try it out and see what I thought... I'm assuming someone quit and they were in a bind. I did agree and said, " yeah I could come in and see what I think...thanks!" Next morning, for several reasons, I did not go. -pay -mom sick -others telling me I don't want to work for them. Anyways, because of this I didn't go in. I tried to call the owner to give him a heads up, due to money issues my phone was off. I had to hustle up some money and pay my phone card. Anyways fast forward to 2/3pm... I was met with 3 girls giggling, degrading and talking shit about the shop I was in. Glares, ignoring me when I asked if I could help them... and just all around rude and bitter comments. Ok, no big deal. Next some bigger woman, with a nasty attitude to match her appearance... walked in behind them to loud cap me about not showing for the shift, how I left them in a bind, and to ensure the guy I currently work for heard, was loud about the whole scenario telling me how horrible I was. And just all are round rude, petty, and distasteful. Ok again, I apologized tried to explain myself and offer some sense of remorse for my action and not justify my actions but ensure she knew I understand that they were left in a bind which was NOT my intentions... She didn't care. She was crappy. Rude. And just all around just as unpleasant as the food she serves. Well... that is not where is stopped with the immaturity and unprofessional actions. Next the OWNER walked in behind her to show me his phone. To let me... and my current boss know... that I didn't try to call and again loudly state I had tried to work for them, messed up their day and how awful I was... Ok... I didn't want to get into it about my finances, my phone being off about how I did try to reach out, my apologies... etc etc.. Again not rude, I said I'm sorry. I hope they know that and he made a crass comment, side eyed me and just said it's fine have a great day. This is the MOST unprofessional, petty, rude, immature, and arrogant and pathetic people I have ever met as a whole. And I thought just the food was bad..... Oh to add, I cleaned their windows 2 days prior to be "nice" due to the owner mentioning none of his employees had yet to do it. Well... no worries it was a kind gesture from me, they should take notes..:.

    I had the oyster plate with onion rings. The plate must have had 20 large oysters. They were well…read moreprepared and the onion rings were great. They also have meat and vegetables and they must be good because they did a bunch of takeout while I was there.
