Stopped in at Salty Pearl while out driving around and it ended up being one of the best lunch decisions I’ve made in a long time. The shrimp were hands-down some of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and full of flavor. The hush puppies were incredible, and the curly twisted fries were crispy, hot, and addictive. Everything came out exactly as it should.
The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and just an all-around great place to sit back and enjoy a meal. Our waitress, Whitney, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. The staff overall was top-notch.
You really couldn’t ask for a better place to stop and grab a meal with great food and a great vibe. If you’re ever in the area, Salty Pearl is a must-stop. I’ll absolutely be back next time to try more from the menu.

The Bombdiggidy is an understatement! Simply could not get enough of this little restaurant. The Best Ever Seafood around. My boyfriend & I ate here, 5 days out of 6. Shannon took awesome care of us. Do yourself a favor, eat here!
We had the oysters; raw & roasted, snow crab clusters, Ruby Red shrimp, Boom Boom shrimp & grouper. Not all in one seating! LOL With every bite, my mouth did “The Happy Dance”!!
Can’t wait to get back here!

The shrimp platter was great! Their fries are so good and crisp. We came on a not-so-busy night, but I can imagine during their busy season it gets crowded. Will come back again!

Great place I will definitely be visiting again. Sat at the bar up front and had wine, snack and a good chat with Greg one of the owners/managers. They source a good bit of their seafood from Perdido Bay Seafood. Always fresh and delicious! Service was prompt and very knowledgeable.
The char-grilled oysters are some of the best in the Pensacola / Perdido area for sure. Legit chargrilled, not baked, complete with secret sauce. I really want to try the steamer side. The steamed shrimp crab looks really good.
Seating is indoor/outdoor covered and isn’t plentiful. Small places are good! I dont think they take reservations
Hidden under the Perdido Bay Bridge dont miss out on this great spot. Dont miss out on this spot, I’ll see you there, soon.

We were given a recommendation to go here by locals for amazingly fresh seafood and oysters. My goodness are we so glad that we went! We were not very hungry but we plowed through boom boom shrimp, Sampler Oyster platter- charbroiled, Blackened jumbo shrimp, Fried Grouper bites, (the French fries are delicious BTW), and my husband had a chicken sandwich. I have to tell you. 3 out of the 4 of us absolutely love seafood, (my husband likes it but he’s a chicken/burger guy), and we have had plenty of seafood in many coastal areas in many places all over the world… we absolutely thought this was one of our favorites. Our server Greg was so wonderful. He explained how everything was caught, made, and where it came from. Everything was so fresh, so flavorful, and just made to perfection. We would highly recommend this place to anyone in the area and we will definitely be back, most likely before we our vacation ends. Every other employee that we spoke with was so friendly and kind as well. We just had a great time. Thank you for the amazing food and experience!!!

What a find!!! It was the best we have had in our 6 week stay. The crab bisque can’t be beat. Our entire party enjoyed quality shrimp and oysters. Extensive menu. Apparently well managed, the service was welcoming and efficient. This will be our 1st go to with future visits
