Allison and Post Malone
Allison B.

Awesome! Met Post Malone there!!! Late night food and great prices. Food was really good!! A++++

When looking for the best deal in all, you can eat Royal Reds. Be sure to check out The Undertow to satisfy your cravings. Occurring Saturday and Sunday, their shrimp buffet offers roasted corn potato's sausage & plenty of that delicious shrimp all for $10. Throughout the week be sure to check out events & specials offering live bands Karaoke & Texas Hold'em or rack'em up for a game of pool. Come for the food, stay for the fun here at The Undertow.   This is a favorite spot when it comes to enjoying a few cold ones with family and friends or to enjoy a few events & a variety of entertainment offered here. As mentioned in my short intro, I enjoy their all you can eat special on the weekends. Finding their shrimp hit or miss at times while snowbird season is happening the chef attempts keeping pace with crowd & with the volume they forget to restock on occasion. I suggest going early to get it fresh & moist. Their servers and bartender are some of the greatest people you'll ever meet, excellent attitudes, friendly & laid back.    As quick I was going through copious amounts of shrimp sausage corn & gallons of butter & cocktail sauce they made sure my table is spacious for additional carnage & made sure I didn't spend 1 moment thirsty keeping my drinks filled. When it comes to their pool tables, there's not much to say as their tables felted perfectly no uneven-ness with the table cue's seem perfect, but I enjoy a good pool game after a hardy meal. This has been an excellent visit & so excited to come back again another weekend for their Poker (My favorite hobby) Karaoke live music & indulge again in eating all you can eat shrimp  Be sure to like them on FB & tell a friend.

Best reuben around! Bartender/server Mack is phenomenal! As is bartender Jeramy! Great place to be yourself. Have a brew, watch some football, play pool, smoke your vape or cigar. Vape shop on site. I love coming here. Great laid-back local atmosphere.

Menu

Amazing service, great wings, good burger, no cheese on the loaded fries which was super disappointing.

All you can eat crawfish boil
Hakim M.

This place is definitely a must try. They had a all you can eat crawfish boil. The manager stated that they will start having these on a weekly basis. 20$ all you can eat crawfish with all the fixins. Best crawfish I ever had state to state by far. If you happen to be in gulf shore area must stop by there.. smoker friendly and live music... Win!!!

Under Tow Grill. Local hole-in-wall. Great prices and food. Royal Reds All you can eat, Sat and Sunday. $15.99. Giant outdoor area.
Gregg H.

A great find. Local bar and grill with reasonable prices. Fresh dip was big enough for 2. Friendly staff and all you can eat Royal Reds Sat and Sun for $15.99.

See all

Went there for lunch. Amazing experience all the way around. I will definitely be back for the food…read morethe atmosphere and the service and the beer selection. ATMOSPHERE Nothing too special about the atmosphere here. I just love that. It was nice clean open area with large windows and plenty of seating and easy to get around. The bar area look cool and the layout was nice. FOOD this is why you came here, right! All kinds of fish cooked all kinds of different ways. Delicious gumbo. Love that pimento cheese ball appetizer with that blueberry pepper jelly! For lunch, I had the meat and three. It was all good, especially the collard greens. SERVICE THIS WAS MAYBE SOME OF THE BEST SERVICE I HAD THE WHOLE TIME I WAS IN ORANGE BEACH THIS WEEKEND. OUR SERVER WAS SO AMAZING. I HATE THAT I CAN'T REMEMBER HER NAME, BUT SHE WAS ON TOP OF IT AND SUPER DELIGHTFUL. DRINKS The bar area looked really nice. Most of my table had iced tea which everybody enjoyed. I also got a beer from the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I was very impressed by their beer selection and they are a verified venue on the Untappd app so you can go to that app to look at all the beer selection and even filter and sort the beers so that you can have an easier time selecting the proper beverage. It even came out in a glass that matched the beer that I had! I like that extra touch.

They had a meat and three sides which is a southern thing. I chose the fresh catch. with side salad, boiled red potatoes, and greens. I had asked the server for the salad first. But it was brought with the meal. The salad was fresh and crisp, with a surprise of a small Peppa dew pepper. Blazing red with a little heat and delicious. Haven't seen them in a restaurant ever. Unfortunately my fish and potatoes were cold, cold and butter congealed. The greens were warm and good I had also ordered the cornbread. It was refreshing to see that it wasn't the usual cake like kind, plus not the ultra sweet kind either. More bread like with a hint of sweetness. Delicious. The fish and potatoes had a nice flavor but unfortunately the cold food spoiled the experience. Since I was a guest of my sister I didn't say anything about the cold food. What a disappointment. Maybe when I return things will be better.

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.

However, we unfortunately weren't impressed with the flavor. Presentation wise, very fun and cute. The mermaid tail was presented with everything I got except I didn't get the mermaid tail gummy/charm on my sundae, a bit odd haha. The mermaid tail was $8 but really it was beautiful! The vanilla ice cream however, was not great. It tasted like imitation vanilla, like vanilla extract. Not a fan at all. My husband got a milkshake with m&ms and gummy worms. Mix ins were great... but the ice cream again was just OFF. It didn't taste like a normal chocolate ice cream and we couldn't figure out what was off but something was. This is how much of our items we decided to go ahead and toss due to flavor just not being what we expected. I think this is a fun place for kids and a fun experience, but I don't think I'd go back just because of the flavors

I just paid my first visit to Milkshake Momma Burgers and Shakes yesterday it's a vibrant and…read moreenergetic restaurant located in Orange Beach. Since its establishment earlier this year Milkshake Momma is fast becoming a favorite spot for locals and tourists with their comfort food, unique atmosphere, and over-the-top milkshakes. Founded in Ladonia, Alabama, as part of the Southern Roots Country Store, Milkshake Momma has quickly gained popularity for its delicious comfort food, over-the-top milkshakes, and lively atmosphere. The restaurant's was founded by a group of friends who wanted to create a place where people of all ages could enjoy delicious treats and create fun memories.  While Milkshake Momma currently only has one location in Orange Beach, AL, the restaurant is now offering franchise opportunities to interested entrepreneurs. Milkshake Momma's menu features a wide array of unique offerings, including epic FREAK Shake milkshakes, old-fashioned milkshakes, banana splits, cones, cups, freak donuts, mini donuts, cobblers, and cheesecake and cake by the slice. Their food menu also boasts a variety of tasty options, such as burgers, hot dogs, salads, and funky fries. I've got my eye, for my next visit, on the Outlaw Chili Dog which is a hot dog, topped with mustard, house-made chili, onions, slaw, and pickles, it sounds delish. Also when I'm not being my regularly cheery self I'm coming back for a Cheer Up Buttercup, which has a  Peanut Butter Rim, Vanilla Milkshake or Sundae, Topped with Slice of Cheese Cake, Reese Cups, Reese Pieces, Pretzels Carmel and Whipped Topping, that sounds cheery :-)  I had my first Pistol Pete shake that was quite  enjoyable, and by the way they use Blue Bell Ice Cream here, and I do like their stuff.  Bottom line: Milkshake Momma Burgers and Shakes offers a fun dining experience with its unique atmosphere, delicious comfort food, and over-the-top milkshakes. The staff is friendly and the wait is reasonable, give it a try!  Hours: Milkshake Momma is open seven days a week: Monday - Thursday: 11:00 AM - 8:00 PM Friday - Saturday: 11:00 AM - 9:00 PM Sunday: 12:00 PM - 8:00 PM To learn more about Milkshake Momma, visit their website at milkshakemomma.com.
