Doc's Seafood Shack & Oyster Bar

"Not a lot of space, but a huge amount of flavor!! This place is amazing, the food was super great and a very decent amount. The staff was so nice and friendly. We had to wait to be seated, but it was well worth the wait. Everything is great and delicious. This is a must go place to eat. One of the best plates is the baked seafood platter. There is another fried version, which also was excellent. Overall, a fantastic place to eat."

"This is the first review with the original restaurant. Went to both within three days. This was the better of the two and wish that I came the second time. Went for lunch the other day. Since end of the rush, seated right away but nice flow. The waitress was very nice and helpful since I never made cocktail sauce showed me and checked to make sure I was good. Ordered cra cakes and make your platter. The true stars was the oysters and shrimp both were fresh and cooked with a perfect touch. The crab cakes and stuffed crabs were good. The clam strips were mid,but the shrimp and oysters made up for it. Also my waitress timed my appetizer and food perfect and kept my ice tea glass full. Also excellent ice tea. Not too sweet and enjoyed three glassed. Average on what seafood cost these days. There are two locations and highly recommend this one."

"I asked a friend that had visited Gulf Shores multiple times, and Docs was at the top of his list. We stopped by there yesterday and loved it so much, we went back today. We wondered about their slogan as "The best fried shrimp in the civilized world". After visiting twice, I have to agree with them. They are excellent, along with their fried clam strips, oysters, fish, stuffed crab shell, crab claws and hushpuppies. We also loved that you can make your own cocktail sauce as hot as you want. Next we visit Gulf Shores, we will be back."
