Gulf Shores Steamer & Grill
Gulf Shores Steamer & Grill prides itself on offering steamed and grilled seafood, which provides diners with healthier options than many traditional seafood preparations. The restaurant has been serving deep-water royal red shrimp, hand-cut ribeye steaks, Alaskan snow crab legs and smoked-tuna dip since 1989. Begin the evening with an appetizer of raw oysters, spicy Cajun jambalaya or fresh steamed mussels. For your main selection, consider a Cobb salad; a grilled poboy with red fish, white fish or shrimp; grilled chicken; or the vegetarian garden steamer. The "Little Shrimp" children's menu includes grilled chicken fingers and peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches. Dessert choices include French silk chocolate pie, New York-style cheesecake and key lime pie. Gulf Shores Steamer & Grill is open daily for lunch and dinner.
