The fresh Alabama raw oysters were absolutely fresh and delicious. I'm not a grits fan, but my husband ordered the shrimp and grits and the texture and taste was on point ! Hush puppies...yum! Mahi Tacos yum yum...and a sample of the gumbo will have us coming back. Delicious food, cozy family atmosphere, and fríendly attentive staff. So glad we stopped in at this local gem!

The lady at the front desk of our hotel suggested this place and we are so glad she did. My husband got the mahi and I had the popcorn shrimp with Gouda grits. I'm not that keen on seafood and my husband knows this. He ate all of his food and said thank you for letting me come here. I haven't had seafood like this in so long. The server , Julia, was so sweet and engaging. It's so refreshing to have someone serve us that knows what customer service is all about. If you want great food and great service while you're in Crestview , go to Emerald Isle.

The staff is friendly and provided great service. The prices were amazing, for the amount of food and quality. You go up to the front to order "cafeteria" style. I chose the option of a meat, 2 sides, & dessert for $11. For $3 more you can get the buffet option. I selected the fried chicken, chicken & rice, and turnip greens with banana pudding for my dessert. The meals also came with a slice of corn bread. Everything was warm, fresh, and delicious! I highly recommend giving this place a try!

We were misled by the rave reviews. We went expecting wonderful seafood at a good price. Instead,…read morewe found barely okay food at a fairly high price. I got the special of the day which was swordfish for $18.00. It came with 2 sides. I didn't like the fried okra because it was a bit greasy. I didn't eat the hush puppies because they were even more greasy. I didn't eat any of the beans but my husband said they were too sweet. The swordfish was sliced too thin and was blackened. It was pretty salty. I tried one of my husband's shrimp and all I can say is that it was edible. It wasn't particularly good. Our 19 year old granddaughter got grilled chicken. She said it was okay but when I asked her which was better, that grilled chicken or the grilled chicken at Chic fil a, she said Chick fil a. She's not even a chic fil a fan. We went at noon. They weren't extremely busy as I thought they would be based on the reviews. The atmosphere was rustic. Everything was self service. My husband left a tip when he ordered at the counter thinking they would bring the food to us and clear the table. It was all self service.
