Shrimp Basket

"While visiting my father in law, my wife, myself, son, daughter in law and three grandkids decided to visit The Shrimp Basket for dinner. We entered the building and was immediately seated after the staff pulled two tables together to accommodate all of us. Jalen, our waitress, was very quick to take drink orders as well as appetizers while answering questions we had about menu items. This review is only for my appetizer and dinner since everyone was chatting and I didn't want to invade on their meal with a bunch of questions, but I will say, everyone in our party was very pleased with the service as well as the meal! I had fried crab claws for an appetizer and they were presented hot and very fresh. Lightly battered and very tasty. For entre, I had the fried flounder, with fries, 2 hush puppies, 2 corn fritters and cole slaw. While I enjoyed the fries and cole slaw, I have to say both were very basic, although served at perfect temps. Hush puppies and corn fritters were very good. The highlight of the meal was the huge portion of fried flounder. This was some of the tastiest, freshest flounder I have ever had. Breading was light, not overpowering, had a great flavor but the fish itself was amazing. I would strongly recommend this to any fish lover. Review would not be complete without giving Jalen kudos. Very professional, very knowledgeable about menu items and had a great sense of humor. Many thanks to her for taking great care of our party. If you haven't visited the Perdido Bay Shrimp Basket, give them a shot. You won't be disappointed!"

"We visited this location while visiting the Gulf Shores area. Hailey P. was our waitress. She very friendly & prompt with serving us. Our food came out quickly & at the proper temperature. We both ordered the shrimp basket combo. The shrimp, fries, & hush puppies were satisfactory. The coleslaw was creamy & sweet. Just the way I like it which I find few places to have. My husband had a nice side salad. I had the seafood gumbo. It was delicious & my favorite part of my meal. We felt that price was fair for the area & quality of food & service. It was very quiet as we were the only customers there at the time."

"My family and I are on vacation and visited twice. We have a large party and both times we had the most wonderful server named Hailey(sp). She is the greatest and so friendly. She definitely deserves a big fat raise!! She went above and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable. Thank you Hailey! The food was great but the service is spectacular."
