My advice, find a seat, have someone order at the order window, then head to the bar to order drinks. The wait to order food took about a half hour. It was very quick to get our drinks. We were able to snag a couch area on a platform. It was so comfy and we loved the views. A heads up- if you snag a couch like this, kids will get up on the platform and jump off of it. People will step up on the platform and walk extremely close to you. I had to ask a kid to stop throwing sand by us because we were eating our dinner. It was a little chaotic. We were extremely patient and understand, but I could see some people being very upset and annoyed. After ordering, our food came out pretty quick. I started with the coconut grouper bites and they were phenomenal. Light breading, lightly sweat, and flaky. I had the Gulf Grilled Cobia and it was phenomenal. The fish was tender, flaky, and light. No fishiness at all. The sauce on the fish was also delightful. My husband and son had the fajita skewers and both enjoyed them. My husband also had the peel and eat shrimp and said they were amazing at The Gulf. Our drinks were okay. We had better drinks at other places during the week, but they weren't bad. We would return, but try to come on an off-time that wasn't so busy.

Views right by the ocean, an open themed bar, palm trees, and music. It's not a quiet date night spot; more like a nice waterfront spot to take your friends and/or kids. The food was ok. I had the Cobia BLT & fries. The fries were good but the blt was tough. The bread was also a bit stale. The coconut fish bite appetizers were a 10/10. Delicious. Wifey had the mahi mahi tacos which she thought were just ok as well -- again tough. She did not however enjoy the cauliflower bites. I personally enjoyed them. We had mixed feelings about it. Great ambience, ok food. May come back.

Service isn't particularly fast and we got the feeling they really didn't care if we came or went. I guess harried and indifferent would describe it. They have an appetizer of blackened shrimp that probably comes with 8 or 9 shrimp. It is excellent and delicious. Best thing we had on the entire trip. They have a pretty little appetizer plate with a cream cheese covered with a peach and pepper sauce that's a little spicy. It is beautifully presented with grapes and flowers. Very yummy.

We went for lunch and had to run the dogs home first after bad intel from another Yelp review. The space is so unique and fun. Many spaces offer nice views of the water and the beach is right there. There are plenty of opportunities for live music and other fun activities such as bingo. I tried their Bloody Mary and it was fine. Nothing special. My fiance had the Reese's bushwhacker and it was awesome!!! The oysters were maybe the saddest I've ever had in my life. So small and flavorless. My advice would be to skip those! The birria bites were delicious and so were the pretzel bites. Overall, a nice experience!

We were right on the water and had a beautiful view. Our server grabbed our drinks and starter order shortly after being seated. The kids ordered drinks in souvenir cups. I started with a spicy margarita and it was delicious. We also had fried pickles and nachos to start. The nachos were phenomenal. The fried pickles were also very good. I had the mahi mahi tacos and they were delicious. I had them blackened and the sauce on the tacos was delicious. My second drink was a bushwhacker and that was super yummy. We ended with a banana pudding and that was delicious as well. Our server was such a gem! She was so friendly and just awesome. We forgot a souvenir cup and she sprinted to find me.
