Fresh grouper bites. Best I've ever had anywhere. Hands down.
Craig L.

Grouper bites. Best you'll ever eat or see. These ain't no frozen chunks. Fresh grouper filet flash fried, essentially on a fresh lettuce bed with fresh cherry tomatoes and drizzled with something amazing. Sit at the bar. Great service.

Cream brûlée
Brittany B.

Service is okay- came with my dad sat at the bar inside. We ordered tuna carpaccio as an appetizer. Wish it had more flavor. We also split the scallops which were 4 for I think 38$. The size was not the best and normally it comes with something hearty like orzo or a polenta because they are so light. They were also super oily. Wine selection to me was limited. This is the third time I've came here and every single time I try something new. I would however come back for the outside bar with the band.

Margarita
Ashley B.

I've been craving a proper lobster roll, and Zeke's absolutely delivered! It was AMAZING--exactly what I was hoping for. The fries were really good too, and I have to mention the ranch because I am PICKY about ranch and this was the good kind! The drinks were also a win. We tried the margarita and strawberry daiquiri, and both were so good and refreshing. The kids got butter noodles and chicken, my husband got the fish, and everything at the table was a hit. No disappointing meals here! Great food, great drinks, and that lobster roll alone would bring me back. Definitely one of our favorite meals of the trip!

SURF & TURF BURGER*
Rich R.

Great spot and the food was excellent. Must try is the surf and turf burger- it will not disappoint. The only thing I could not understand is it felt like they were saving all of the best seats next to the water for absolutely no one. We went in the middle of lunchtime and dinner time and it was hardly anyone there, but they refused to see people next to the water for some odd reason like they were saving them for the dinner rush. Anyway, Zekes, if you're reading this, let people sit by the water come on man.

We loved the ambiance and the food. I had the Blackened Cobia and I would get his every time. This is my new favorite here in the area!! The grouper bites are a wonderful appetizer as well. I can't wait to come back!

ULTIMATE SEAFOOD BOIL
Matt K.

Amazing food and awesome service I had the ultimate seafood platter snow crab, shrimp, sausage, mussels, corn, and red potatoes mmm Very large serving Everything was delicious and cooked just right Our server Sage was spot on super service she's awesome

Lobster Roll
Edward A.

Our party of 4 had a reservation and were sat right away on a Monday night - just in time for the sunset in April. 20 mins after sitting, no wait staff, no water, nada. We decided to leave but the manager Gabe managed to convince us to stay offering to comp our dinners. While we could've really taken advantage of this offer, we ordered as we normally would. No apps, no desserts, nothing extra. Just 4 entrees and we were good. This gesture was above and beyond and I commend him making it right and that's what got this to 3 stars. The food was mid at best. The fried shrimp was lukewarm when served, the lobster roll was more bread than anything, and the pork chop was tough - overcooked. My whole Moroccan fish was ok - but the waiter failed to ask what side I wanted and just served it with mashed potatoes. Had he asked I would've chosen rice. We already felt we were accommodated so we didn't want to bring any more things up. It's a cool spot and I'm sure there are challenges on a regular basis. It was just an ok experience for us.

CAVIAR SERVICE*
Travis S.

Zeke's is probably one of the best restaurants in all of perdido, orange beach, and gulf shores. We had chef selection oyster from Maine. Fantastic. Then we had the caviar service and champagne. Absolutely wonderful. Comes with potato chips, cream franche, shallots, and chives. Pan seared scallops were perfectly cooked. The lobster roll was great as well and the calamari was top tier. The bartenders are great and don't skimp on pours. Sage was sweetheart. Get here early as it gets very crowded. Best bet is to find a seat at the open bar. Really cool interior and a great place to watch the sunset out back.

PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS
Patricia B.

We went without a reservation at a busy time and was still able to be seated in under 30min. Plenty of things to do while waiting- no complaints there. Our server was WONDERFUL! I am gluten free and have other food allergies and she went and checked to make sure what I wanted would be safe and it was! My only complaint was that I thought my 4 scallops and asparagus was pretty wimpy compared to my husband's 2 giant crab cakes with corn, and the scallops cost more. The chef's choice oysters were my husband's favorite.

Kevin T.

Shrimp platter was great but got the blackened Cobia and dirty rice and it was luke warm and dried out. Disappointed since it was only 5:45. Expected better quality, sorry.

21st Anniversary Dinner!
Melony R.

Came here on the night of our anniversary and Zeke's did not disappoint!! It was a cold evening, but we sat outside as they have a cute tent next to the marina with warmers. Since it was our anniversary, I wanted to sit closer to the water and they had no issue with moving us. All of the staff was super friendly and came over to talk to us and even said that they couldn't believe we've been together for 21 years because we looked so young. We told them that we were vampires. Several servers helped out and all were super friendly. Our server was amazing. I told her that I don't eat pork so she was very careful with letting me know which sauces I should stay away from. Her suggestions were great. I certainly had a hard time choosing, but I ended up with the scallops and HubbyStanks ended up getting the blackened cobia. Our entrées were amazing, but I was most impressed with the beans and rice that came with my HubbyStanks' dish. It was so tasty and it had a kick to it. I was also super impressed with their smoked salmon dip! I don't like mayonnaise so I'm always iffy with anything like this, but the mayo did not overpower the dip and the fresh cream on top was a fresh touch! I was full, but I had to try the crème brûlée. It was classic. It was perfect. Several days later, we ate someplace else for my mom's 70th birthday but the whole time we were there we wished we would have booked Zeke's again! A new fave in OB for me!

Beba looking sexy!!
Mel R.

We celebrated our 21st anniversary at Zeke's, and it couldn't have been more perfect. We started with the smoked salmon dip which was absolutely delicious, then had the blackened cobia and scallops, both cooked to perfection. Every bite was a 10/10, and the crème brûlée at the end was the perfect finish. Light and creamy. The service was just as good as the food, manager stopped by to greet us and wished us a happy anniversary. Very friendly, attentive, and genuine. We sat outside corner table with a beautiful view of the water and enjoyed every minute of it. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Ask the Community - Zeke's Restaurant

Indoor seating available?

Yes, indoor seating is availabe.

What are entre prices?

$15.00-25.00 for the most part. If you go higher end steak $25.00-50.00. Very reasonable for the quality and quantity.

Does Zekes take reservations?

Yes they do.

My wife has developed an egg allergy, how knowledgeable are the servers when it comes to knowing what might have egg in it?

Zeke's is really good about allergies. Most times the server asks about allergies as soon as they gat to your table. If they don't, tell them. They seem to be very good about allergies as my son has a peanut allergy.

Hi! What is the attire at Zekes? Do men need a collared shirt? Is it ok to bring kids? Thanks!

I'd say smart casual in the evening but I've seen people in t-shirts, shorts and sandals. They don't have a specific dress code although I am pretty sure it's a "no shirt no shoes no service" kind of place. It's a nice restaurant so consider that.… 

Is there space available to rent for a semi private party? 30 people maximum.

I don't know. Best to call the restaurant since you will have to call to book anything anyway. Restaurant phone number: 251-280-8008.

Is the outside dog friendly?

Hi Deanna! Both the outdoor dining area and container bar are dog friendly!

One thing that stood out was the gift shop at the entrance--it could definitely use a refresh. The dark corner filled with outdated beach clothing isn't the best first impression. We visited on a Tuesday around 7:00 p.m., and there was no wait. During our meal, only about four tables were occupied, so it was very quiet. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and checked on us frequently. The only odd part of the atmosphere was that cartoons were playing on the bar TVs even though there weren't any kids in the restaurant. For dinner, my husband ordered the surf and turf, and his steak was cooked perfectly. The baked potato, however, came with an overwhelming amount of melted cheese--enough for several potatoes. I ordered the blackened grouper. It was cooked well and had good flavor, but the fillet was very thin and wasn't as memorable as other grouper dishes I've had. The whipped sweet potatoes were sweeter than expected from the brown sugar, and the Brussels sprouts were heavily coated in a sweet balsamic glaze, leaving them soft instead of crispy. I think both sides would be better with less added sweetness to let the natural flavors shine. We finished with the Bananas Foster, which was delicious and a fun presentation. It came with three small scoops of vanilla ice cream and half a banana. Since the flaming presentation takes a little time, larger scoops of ice cream would hold up better and not be half melted by the time the fire goes out. We would come back to avoid wait at other restaurants but would try different side dishes next time.

To me this would be 4 stars or really 5. But I'm emotional because my left overs got tossed…read more My daughter and I just moved here this week and every restaurant is SLAMMED. Like it's almost insane. I work in mobile so I'm already crabby for the one hour and twenty minute drive to and from there. I told my daughter I'd take her out to eat. We came here. To my surprise- not many people at all. The bartender was our server she was incredibly tentative and nice. We ordered crab dip 7/10. I would like to see it paired with chips instead of bread stick. I got the catch of the day with a loaded baked potato and side salad which that to me was a 8.5/10. I was so full and so excited for my left overs. The manager was checking on every one and offered my daughter fish food. At this point I have paid and we went to go feed the fish and when we came back everything on the table was gone. My bill was 92 which might be normal for 2 people here I'm not too sure yet. But I was so disappointed. My daughter said it was the best butter noodles she ever had and she ate up the bread.

The homestyle potatoes were crispy and well-seasoned, and the grits were creamy and some of the best we've had. The service was friendly, attentive, and efficient without being overbearing. After brunch, we enjoyed walking through the nearby shops, which made for a perfect morning in Orange Beach. If you're looking for a great brunch with good food, beautiful waterfront views, and excellent service, Coastal is definitely worth a visit. We'll absolutely be back.

The first thing that impressed me was the ample parking. The restaurant also has a small private beach area for customers, along with a great bar area overlooking the water. The property is handicap accessible with both ramps and stairs, making it easy for everyone to enjoy. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by Assistant Manager Taylor. He made me feel extremely welcome and even recommended a lunch item from the menu. I took his advice and ordered the Pork Ribeye Sandwich, and it was absolutely amazing. On the side, I had a salad with their homemade ranch dressing. Without a doubt, this is some of the best ranch dressing I have ever had. The bartender, Cody, was outstanding as well. I tried the Lime Margarita, Blackberry Mojito, and the Strawberry Basil drink. Every one of them was fantastic. You can tell this is a place that people genuinely enjoy working at. The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the customers all seemed happy to be there. It's rare to find a restaurant that gets everything right, but Avenue Pub comes very close. If you're anywhere near Orange Beach, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I'll definitely be back.
