It all began in 1993, when two local boys in Gulf Shores, Alabama decided to open up a casual family-focused seafood restaurant on the Gulf Coast. The idea was to create a restaurant where people would feel welcome to be themselves, families could afford to dine out together and strangers would leave as friends. Coastal vacationers demanded that Shrimp Basket expand to provide this incredible seafood value to those unable to be at the beach year round. Today, we’re happy to offer locations across the Southeast for family and friends to feel a part of the beach, dine and enjoy delicious seafood! At the Shrimp Basket, our goal is to make sure that you – our friends – leave happy and satisfied after every visit.
Informal chain outpost offering a variety of fried seafood dishes & an oyster bar.

I haven’t been to the Shrimp Basket in years and wish that I had come back sooner!
Atmosphere: The restaurant has a mom-and-pop type of vibe with wooden accents in the interior.
Service: Our waitress was very kind and continuously kept checking on us to refill our cups and to see if we needed anything else.
Menu items: We had the Smoked Mahi Dip as our starter and would go back for that alone. The housemade chips were thick and of a softer consistency. My main was their Shrimp Tacos with a side of sweet potato fries. I will be ordering this dish again—the tacos were flavorful, and the sweet potato fries tasted fresh. We ended up sharing Funnel Cake Fries that come with raspberry, caramel, and chocolate sauces!
I loved this dining experience. It felt so homey and is a great place to eat out with family and friends!
Now I will saw that tarter sauce they claim to make was excellent. Great job on that. And the baskets only come with 1 small corn fritter. But overall, the food was not good, and we can not return. I believe the cook needs to be let go at this time. It was pricey, and you feel like your in an old fast food establishment.
Arrived and only had 2 other customers. (5pm on a sunday) We had a short wait to be seated as there was only like a few people working. We sat by the door but had enough space. Drinks came out quickly. Food was really good. The pasta had the cajun spice on it that my son didn’t really enjoy…but I did. Their grilled shrimp was very well seasoned.
I love sweet potatoes fries and almost ate everyone’s. Meal sizes were big enough for us to take food home.
Hostess kept our glasses full and checked on us regularly. It started to get busy around the time we were leaving.
Definitely worth checking out.
So, I’m updating my review to my most recent visit. I went this past Sunday, Feb 3rd, and ordered a cup of gumbo and had a Mai Tai. My bill was 16.25. The food was good, the drink was good. When I looked in my bank account the next day to review transactions, like I do on a daily basis, they charged me 67.47 instead. I’ve tried calling corporate, you go in circles as no one answers the phone, and I’ve even dropped by the location as well as called a couple of times to have this resolved to no avail. I was a regular at this location, but if they are going to overcharge me $50, I’ll go somewhere else. Thankfully, I uploaded my receipt amount in the app, or i would have no proof that this is all I ordered. Don’t know if this was a one-time thing or if they try to get away with it on multiple occasions, but check your bank people after you eat here.
