Really fun stop on our America’s Great Loop trip. Very nice people and helpful. Jason really cares about his guests. Our server Katy did an awesome job. But mainly, the food is really well prepared and tasty. Had the Shrimp and Grits and Shrimp Alfredo. Highly recommend.

I had the sauteed crab claws and the snow crab leg dinner. Everything was fabulous. They’ve done a lot of remodeling there’s new walls and carpet and the decks are extended it’s just beautiful now. Wonderful atmosphere. They now have an elevator for older customers like myself so I don’t have to walk up the stairs.

Absolutely loved everything about this experience! The staff was very attentive always checking in it felt like I was with family not just out at a restaurant!! No words could describe how much I enjoyed the live band and amazing food. I’m not a big drinker but loved every drink the bartenders recommended! I gave preferences for flavors and they really knew what mixes would suite my tastes. If I could give more than just 5 stars this would definitely be the place! Has great options for families as well with great views, a jumbo checkers game, and fans everywhere to keep you cool in the southern heat!!

Grand Marin is a spacious seaside restaurant with stunning ocean views through the windows. The food is both delicious and elegantly presented, and the service was excellent. We had a wonderful time at Grand Marin

I have been going to the grand marina for nearly 50 years . Now I must give a big thumbs up! First thing I noticed was back a few months ago we came to The Dock from Fowl River and was met by a guy who actually grabbed my bow rail and helped us get our boat tied up and secure . BIG DIFFERENCE !! That alone showed me a big improvement over past visits .
But the one thing that stands out the most was at the down stairs vinue . On Nov. 16 on a Sunday afternoon we were enjoying music and a few beers , ( bushwackers need a little pirats cove juice ) but the vibe was good . I was having some serious back pain and might have shown signs of impairment . The fact is I dont use any pain meds and I only had a few beers but I was almost unable to walk because the pain had my back locked up and I had to hold onto the tables when I did get up . BIG HURT !!
Well the staff must have thought I was over the limit and returned my card and in a very professional way cut me off . I have never been in this spot before so was sort of surprised . The fact that they saw what could have been a problem and addressed it the way they did was top shelf . So I must give a big shout out to the staff at The Dock and we will be coming there many times in the future .

The Grand Mariner Restaurant and Marina was everything we hoped for! Quaint local place on the water, very sweet owners, friendly service, water view, and varied yummy food offerings. Hubby began with a loaded bloody Mary… it was a complete appetizer, lol. Such fun! See photos! I had my first pina colada of the trip and it was good. Today they had a special soup offering… crab corn bisque. Hubby and I both had a cup of that. Delicious! We enjoyed our window view our whole dining experience. I ordered fried fish with onion rings; Hubby ordered grilled fish with corn. Both selections were excellent. My fried fish was the best I have ever eaten; the tasty crust was perfectly crisp and the white fish was flaky and tender, not greasy. The onion rings had their special breading; they were so tasty I didn’t even want any ketchup, lol. We were ready to leave but got tempted by a rum (bushwacker) shake. Hubby ordered one and we shared. It, too, was excellent. After our meal we went out on the dining deck to enjoy the full view. It was too cool to eat outside today but know it would be delightful on a comfortable day. We highly recommend this local jewel. We were just passing thru Mobile and wanted a seafood lunch. It was perfect!

First time at this restaurant. We really loved their grilled snapper and grouper. Gumbo and Grilled shrimp were also very delicious. They served really fast. We enjoyed the outside view. I took one star off for couple of reasons. 1- a lot of mosquitoes that they eat you alive. They had citronella candles if you ask them to light. But I had to go back to my car and take a shower with deep woods OFF Spray. Make sure you are prepared if you like to dine outside 2- House salad was not fresh and key lime pie was not the best. But our server kindly listened to us and offered to bring something else. We thanked and said not necessary. 3- Margarita was a little pricey but we liked it. Overall we were very happy with the service and how delicious were the fish and the shrimp. It is worth to give this restaurant a try, we will go back again.
