We walked in and were quickly greeted with a friendly smile. We were seated quickly and served by Melissa. Melissa was wonderful! She checked on us several times throughout our meal and made us feel like VIP. Our meals were cooked to perfection and the drinks were delicious! We'll definitely return. read more

Great view! I had the gumbo and po'boy catfish and loved it. The establishment has seating inside, on the balcony and semi outside with the possibility to open the garage doors when the weather allows it. Service is fast, friendly and attentive. It is place to go with a few or a larger group. you have to walk a couple of stairs, but you can also choose the elevator. read more

Update on spoiled flounder, I got terribly sick yesterday starting couple hours after eating and I am back being sick again this morning the next day. it's terrible! I've had to cancel my day. Fish was swimming in a greasy sea. I was told it was seasoning. It was gross but I didn't have to eat that part so I didn't. The waitress assured me that the Black degraded slime sludge at the head was perfectly normal because of the location on fish. When I was finally able to get online with the password AI told me the fish and the slimy black guck was unsafe to eat and to discard it. I've never eaten flounder before, what do I know? I really felt deceived by the waitress as she completely changed her opinion after a second confrontation after a little online research. AI said: "That texture typically comes from: * Bacterial growth (biofilm formation) * Protein breakdown as the fish degrades * Time/temperature abuse (sat out, reheated, or not stored properly)" Beyond disappointing. I'll never forget this the illness that occurred while I was trying to shop in a store. Horrable!. My partner said we will never return! read more

I had an excellent meal at McElroy's Harbour House Restaurant, thanks in large part to our wonderful waiter, Keith, who took great care of me from start to finish. I started with the Seafood Gumbo, and it was absolutely delicious--rich, flavorful, and the perfect warm-up for the rest of the meal. The six oysters on the half shell were incredibly fresh and briny, just the way they should be. For the main course, the blackened pork chops were cooked perfectly--tender, juicy, and seasoned with just the right amount of spice. It was truly a standout dish! Overall, a fantastic dining experience with great food, great service, and a beautiful coastal atmosphere. read more

My traveling buddies and I stopped in for supper on a wet and rainy night. Glad we did. Our table by the window gave us a beautiful view of the Gulf coast. The large nautical themed dining room had ample of space for a gathering without feeling crowded. There were plenty of yummy food choices and our server Carrie Ann, was super friendly. We enjoyed the happy hour with margaritas and crab dip. read more

Everything was ok. We ordered the crab dip, crab cake, fried shrimp, and fried green tomatoes. It was all good but nothing was so great that I'm eager to order again. Not much really stood out for me besides the key lime coloda drink and the views you get with the restaurant. Although, I am still dreaming about having that colado milkshake again. read more

I am a regular at McElroy's. The view is amazing, but the food is even better. It's always consistent. The service is always good. There are only small windows of opportunity to sit outside because of the Mississippi heat, but if you catch the weather just right, elect for seating outdoors. The catfish and popcorn shrimp are my favorites, but I'd recommend anything on the menu. read more

Wtf is going on here. Had to wait very long time for food and we had a toddler. Very unpleasant. Waitress in tears. People getting food around us had been there less time. I think it's time managers and ownership went to work at Lowe's and sold the restaurant. There are too many restaurants and this is one of the excess. A total mess. Also the food sucks. Not a chance I would come back even if it were free. Nice view though. read more

Let me start by saying i'm from Montana and have very little seafood knowledge. I went into this place today with high expectations and they were met. All the food that me and my family got was amazing! And it it's only the second time in my life having gumbo and it was SPECTACULAR! I would highly recommend reading the menu and finding what you like but it was overall great food. Service was amazing all the waiters and waitresses were super nice. Our waitress made conversation and was a nice person to talk to. The food came out very fast and it was delicious. As for the ambiance, it was a beach theme. I thought the theme was super cute and made me feel very in Mississippi! read more

Our first time here for lunch on Memorial Day Monday. Very friendly and helpful staff, our server Kim was great with our questions and offered excellent recommendations. My wife got the gumbo as a starter and it was maybe the best I've had. We both order the Half and Half with catfish and shrimp. It was delicious and the portions were ample. We share the key lime pie dessert - fabulous ! We enjoyed our visit and will be back !! read more

I think it's about the worst seafood restaraunt I've ever been to. The place looked interesting from the outside, reviews seemed alright so I thought I'd give it a try. Everything was super bland. You were basically just ordering for texture. The batter they used for the fried mushrooms was weird. The raw oysters were less than mid, not to mention the server hardly knew anything about oysters.. I couldn't bring myself to ask for a takeout box. At its best, the food was edible, or boring. Seems like a tourist trap restaraunt more than anything else The quality of food should amount to its price, but here I find its price greater than its quality read more

servers are amazing! all of them will help you if you need something. the view is amazing!!! food comes out quickly & Hot! prices are so reasonable & portions are so generous. oysters are freshly shucked & their charbroiled are best on the coast! try em you'll love em!!! read more

Q was the best server!! Big parties all around including ours! It was a packed house. Food came out quickly and everyone enjoyed it!

A new try for us! We were attending a concert nearby and decided to try McElroy's Harbor House. We were greeted at the door and sat immediately. Our server, Allen, was a joy! He was very helpful and prompt. His sense of humor was infectious. The food was excellent and very fresh. We really enjoyed ourselves that evening. read more

If you are looking for a spot with a beautiful view and to have a drink (a bottled beer) this is your spot. This is an elevated restaurant so you get a great look out where you can se the water and the boats, the staff are nice but I hate to say that about where it ends. We came on a Tuesday afternoon during lunch. We were seated quickly and I started by asking if they had any specials. I was met with a "sorry no" but after reviewing the menu, they have a whole lunch menu (which in my parts would be considered special as it's only M-F). We ordered a margarita and got the poboy and gumbo as well as the catfish with a salad and broccoli., that also came with hush puppies. The margarita came to the table and as the server was approaching I kept thinking who ordered lemonade (it was electric yellow). He placed it on the table and one taste and it was off (very sour). He was kind enough to take it back and we opted to get a bottled beer. The food came to the table shortly and what surprised me was the poboy looked to have more fish than the catfish plate. Here's the disappointing part - although on the menu it stated that the catfish is farm raised, it tasted muddy and like it was frozen. The fish had NO SEASONING and the bread was meh at best. The broccoli looked like it was frozen and then over cooked, the hush puppies were dense and oily and the lettuce in the salad needs a rougher chop as it was big strips of lettuce tossed in the bowl. The gumbo needs some love as well but I will say it had a variety of items in it (rice, sausage and shrimp). Maybe I expected too much from the previous reviews or that they were near the water and have been around for years but I can definitely say this is a one and done. read more

This restaurant was amazing. Got a seat inside by the window. Our server was so friendly and had great recommendations. Ordered a Mai Tai and it was happy hour and it was delicious. The gumbo was absolutely fantastic. My daughter ordered the chicken tenders and she said they were the best she ever had. We order Crab claws which were very tasty. The crab dip was so good and creamy. And the stuffed mushrooms were delicious. So glad we made the spur of a moment choice to eat here. Definitely would recommend if your in the area. read more

McElroy's was recommended by the concierge at our hotel and I'm glad we went. The views were amazing! Our waiter Devin was very knowledgeable of the items on the menu, kept our drinks filled and checked on us often. He did a great job. We ordered grilled flounder and popcorn shrimp. We chose the flounder filet. It was grilled and seasoned nicely. The popcorn shrimp were just that. I wish I would have ordered the tail on Gulf shrimp. The hush puppies have jalapeños in them and were too spicy for me. All the food came out hot. Salad dressings tasted made in house. The prices were reasonable for the portion sizes. read more

We visit when in Biloxi quick as a walk from our hotel. A large open seating area let us enjoy the gulf and the great weather. They have a nice lunch menu today Tiki Hubby and I shared the house salad with blackened shrimp what a bargain for $15.00 large iceberg salad with tomato, cheese, hard boiled egg, bacon, croutons covered with hot blackened shrimp and creamy rich ranch on the side. Plenty for the two of us for lunch. Kami our server was outstanding. View was delightful. read more

Let's face it you are here for the view because it is amazing. The décor doesn't really match with the view because it's more like a Greek restaurant but that's okay. They have a lunch special and that's what I got - the half shrimp po'boy with the gumbo. I could not imagine a whole sandwich because the half was plentiful. Shrimp was done with a nice southern breading and the sandwich was properly dressed. Gumbo was on par and better than average. The service was quick and friendly - our server was very sweet. Cocktails were refreshed - overall a great experience. read more

McElroy's Harbor House - Shrimp Po boy with gumbo - Seafood Near Me - Biloxi, Mississippi

We are here for the weekend and saw this restaurant on our way to Hard Rock Hotel. We sat down for a while (about 20 minutes) and my friend had to get someone to service us and take our order. After they realized the oversight, they were very apologetic. I ordered the crab dip and we decided to share the seafood platter. Everything was delicious. The food was seasoned very well and was fresh. It was a good choice since we wanted fresh gulf seafood. The portions were more than enough so we took some home. The next day, the food was still tasty. Yummy! Not only was the food good but the view is nice too. read more

Some friends and I had dinner there yesterday.....and as usual it was great! With the weather being nice and not so hot for once, we sat on the deck by the bar enjoying the breeze along with the views. We had crab cakes, gumbo, crab dip, tuna steak.........it was all very good! Our server, Alan (I think) was very funny and attentive....very busy, but took good care of us, even took a picture of us when we asked. We had a great time! Thanks, we'll be back again. read more

McElroy's Harbor House - Carl does a wonderful job - Seafood Near Me - Biloxi, Mississippi

I joined my daughter's family for Happy Hour on the covered deck overlooking the bay outside because it was too windy to sit at the tables outside the uncovered area. Two servers approached us, but only 1 spoke and told us her name while the other just stared. It was awkward, until a few minutes into the conversation, the quiet one said the other server was a trainee. Things then got confusing because both started taking orders. There were 2 local draft beers I was considering until they said they were out of both. I ordered a dozen fresh oysters and crab cakes appetizer. I asked to bring out the crab cakes after I ate the oysters, but they came out at the same time, as did everyone's orders of appetizers and entrees! The oysters were fresh, but not briny, so a little lacking in flavor. The 2 sautéed crab cakes had lots of crab, but all I could taste was mustard that overpowered any crab flavor - very disappointing. There are better places for oysters and crab cakes in Gulfport! read more

Food is not worth it Service is just ok Ambiance is the best thing it has going with the view of the water and Deer Island close by Po boys the worst ones in Biloxi almost every other Po boy place beats them hands down. read more

Important Highlights GOOD: Wonderful service, amazing water views and generally solid, fresh seafood BAD - We ordered many items. The tuna dip came with wrapped saltines rather than a crusty bread (latter preferred) The crab cake sandwich needed more grilling, it was very soft McElroy's Harbor House was very enjoyable. The food was overall very good but the STAR was the view. The roof top dining offers several amazing angles of the marina and open water - a must if you go Our server was very friendly and sweet. We loved the chili grilled shrimp, the cold shrimp and the oysters. If you get the crab cake sandwich, go for fried to get the good crunch. McElroy's should be on your list while in Bioloxi. read more

Oh, wow! Can't wait to come back to McElroy's. First, location: sitting above the marina watching the boats in the Biloxi Bay & Gulf. Beautiful views. Secondly, the food: The shrimp & grits should be their signature dish. This was a new version of this classic dish for me. Fried grit cakes COVERED in grilled shrimp, fresh grated Parmesan, and a creamy sauce. The crispy outer shell of the grit cakes with the smooth, creamy inner grits covered in deliciously seasoned cream sauce. My mouth is watering again just describing it. Half & half platter of fried oysters & shrimp, hush puppies, hand-cut fries, & coleslaw was also quite tasty. Last, but not least, the service was exceptional. Keith was very friendly & attentive. Hostess was sweet when purchasing a souvenir shirt on the way out also. Don't pass this place up. read more
