I just got a salad with chicken. It was really good and the portion size was for two meals. My colleagues also got salads as well and enjoyed. I would have ordered something heavier but it was later in the evening. I guest that will be a reason to come back. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Staff was great. Food was good. I will return when in the area.

The restaurant allows for both indoor and outdoor seating as well as seating at the bar. There are arrangement of booths and regular tables inside. Our server Anthony was very attentive and even gave the table a few recommendations before ordering. We had the bed of croissants as the appetizer. They were nice and fluffy, with a sweet butter drizzle on top. I ordered the shrimp and fries platter . I loved the thick cut of the French fries. My family also had the chicken tacos, the spicy chicken sandwich, the kids shrimp platter and kids pasta platter, and the club sandwich.

(I recommend doing that, especially during lunch.) One of my good friends sent recommendations. My husband got the French dip. I hesitate calling it a poboy because I'm from NOLA, and outside south Louisiana, it's just a sandwich . I got the grilled shrimp lunch special with fries. Honestly, spend a little more and get the platter. I'd get them fried, but I can't have gluten. I risked cross contamination and got the fries. They were absolutely worth it. Fortunately, I didn't have a reaction. Trevor was our server, and he was excellent. You could tell he knew the regulars and locals based on how he'd approach new diners. He also gave really good recommendations. The vegetable of the day was a casserole, and Trevor told my husband that was better than the fries. My husband inhaled that casserole. If you're an Elvis fan, request to sit at the table. Overall, I'd definitely come back. For being on Open Table, just know this is a casual restaurant on the bay. Nothing frilly - just good, southern cooking. We will be back!

Service…read morewas a highlight--staff were genuinely friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. That said, the food was a bit of a mixed experience. The chargrilled oysters unfortunately came with quite a bit of shell, which made them difficult to enjoy--though we did manage to find some actual pearl in there, so small win and fun! The grilled fish and shrimp were noticeably overcooked, and my husband's fried shrimp leaned the same way, lacking that fresh, tender bite you hope for. Sides were decent but didn't particularly stand out for my grilled dinner. Husband said slaw and hush puppies were good, my green beans were delicious. Overall, it's a lovely place with great service, but the kitchen execution didn't quite match the setting. With a few tweaks, this could easily be a standout spot.

Supremely underwhelmed with the food this time but the service was still excellent. The restaurant…read morewas clean and well lit. As a family, we came to the Spanish Fort area during Hurricane Ida evacuation in 2021. The food was extremely good and plentiful. Fast forward to 2026, we revisited here and ordered the same seafood plates and was surprised how much they've reduced the amount of food. In 2021, I remember we had 3 catfish filets, imitation crab cake, hush puppies, numerous shrimp, and oysters and everything was hot to taste. It was so much food we needed take out boxes. This time, we were only given 1 catfish filet, four boiled shrimp, 4 fried shrimp, 3 oysters, another imitation crab cake, two cold hush puppies and a plate full of cold French fries. The sides were meh, with canned turnips that were so cold that I couldn't eat them and pretty decent baked beans that were actually tasty. Everything was seasoned very well but it certainly was not worth the $30 price point per person. There was a noticeable difference between what we experienced in 2021 and now. Suffice it to say, we won't be returning here again. Oh how I wish there were a Papadeaux's in Louisiana, Mississippi or the Gulf of Alabama area.

Plenty of options for seafood and American style dishes to choose from the menu. The service was a little slow but I attribute that to the number of people in our group. We were a group of 12.

There are restrooms and benches and a very nice brick pathway along the edge of the water. The pier does extend out quite a way. The day we were there was blazing hot, so the walk to the end of the Pier seemed to take forever, but at the end there is some shade to make it all worthwhile. From the pier parking lot you could drive over to the beach area. There is a booth where you need to pay to enter the beach area, however when we were there, no one was working the booth. The beachfront is fairly long, and seems very clean. We weren't there very long, but we enjoyed checking it all out.

Five Stars all the way for Briquettes Steakhouse! From the moment I walked in early for dinner,…read morethere was absolutely no wait. My server, Braxton, greeted me with a warm smile and stayed attentive throughout the entire meal--he made me feel like a VIP. I ordered the petite filet, cooked medium-rare to absolute perfection. It arrived quickly, and each bite was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The sweet potato casserole surprised me--in general, I avoid sugary sides, but this was so worth it. Briquettes offers a fantastic range of sides, and I went with the grilled broccoli. The char from the grill gave it an extra pop of flavor, a perfect complement to the steak. They even brought out complementary rolls that were delightfully soft and warm. I judge restaurants by their iced tea, and theirs was spot on--refreshing, ideal for a hot Alabama summer. The veggies were cooked just right, and the added bonus of horseradish on the side took my meal to the next level. I actually finished every last bite--a rare occurrence for me! This isn't a bougie, reservation-only steakhouse like you find in big cities. It's a laid-back, hometown gem where you can pull up, park, walk in, and enjoy an outstanding meal without breaking the bank. I'm so glad it's close to home--Braxton and the team at Briquettes have earned a loyal customer. I'll definitely be back!

I have eaten at Briquettes numerous times, and it never disappoints. They have a few locations in…read morethe Mobile area, and I have eaten at the location on Montlimar and the location at the Eastern Shore Mall. My go to is their ribeye, and it is usually seasoned and cooked just right. But I took my wife and daughter to the Spanish Fort location for lunch and to say I was disappointed would be an understatement. The ribeye, although cooked to temp tasted like the chef poured liquid smoke on it. It even smelled like smoke. I took one bite and that was it. The waiter came over several times and never asked why I wasn't eating it. When I asked for the check, he asked if I wanted a box to go and I told him no way. My wife insisted that we take it home to the dog, but she wouldn't eat it either. So disappointed in this location. What happened?!? NOT RECOMMENDED
