I rarely write real time reviews but let me tell you how great this place is! Located in downtown near several hotels if you’re staying in one. Greeted by the sweetest and funniest gentleman at the door. His jokes and one liners are A-1! We were sat pretty quickly since we got there early enough. Server, the tall guy with the long ponytail, was just as awesome. Great decor all over the walls. Food came out piping hot and clearly cooked to order. We tasted each others food and couldn’t find any faults. Catfish was fried to a perfect golden brown. Dessert was just as good! Cannot wait to be in MGM again. RUN, to this place as fast as you can! Love love LOVE it here!

I visited Wintzell’s Oyster House twice on Jan 8, 2026. The first time was in the afternoon for late lunch, and the second time was in the evening in an attempt to order takeout. I didn’t get the takeout because no one came around to take my order.
First things first, the dine-in experience. I entered the restaurant at 2:52pm. There was no one at the front desk. A bartender at bar counter 1 saw me waiting but didn’t respond to me until about two minutes later. Then a staffer led me to the dining area located by bar counter 2. I sat at the table next to an AC outlet so that I could charge my phone. Tyshun came with a menu. I asked for water. He asked if I wanted a lemon on it. I replied affirmatively. When he returned, I asked about the fish in the Half & Half entree. Tyshun said it was whitefish. I had whitefish before and liked it, so I ordered the Half & Half with sides of coleslaw and Cajun rice. It was served as one fish fillet, seven fried oysters and three hush puppies. I did not apply any sauce or dressing on them. The whitefish was good without any. So were the fried oysters. The cutlery did not include a knife. Tyshun provided one upon request. The TVs at the bar counters were not loud. I could heard the bartender conversing with a customer. If this had been my only visit, I’d given Wintzell’s 4/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere, with an overall score of 5/5.
Being pleased with Tyshun’s service, I decided to come back later in the evening to order takeout. It was about 7pm. There was a staffer at the front desk. She told me to go to bar counter 2 to order takeout. I sat on the corner chair shown in the third photo. (FYI, the photo was taken at 3pm; the bartender was a different person at 7pm.) The bartender – a white guy (all the other staffers were black) with a buzz cut and a beard – was busy with a party of two sitting next to me. After a few minutes of waiting, he came to me. I told him that I wanted to order to go. He told me to wait a second and then left me unattended. After five minutes, no menu was provided and no order taken. I had enough and left without notifying anyone. Any other restaurant would have provided a menu right away. I didn’t understand why the service for ordering takeouts was so shoddy. I hope it had nothing to do with how I showed up as I didn’t appear as elegant as the party of two sitting next to me. Consequently, this impacted the overall score of the restaurant.
Furthermore, Wintzell’s website does not take me to the menu. After I selected the location (Montgomery), the Montgomery page showed up but no link to its menu. I had to look up photos of the menu on Yelp. Tyshun was the only reason I didn’t give Wintzell’s one star. If only all the staffers were more like him. Until that happens, I do not recommend Wintzell’s Oyster House. The next time I visit Montgomery, I will avoid this place.

The food was really good. The atmosphere was right on point. I would highly recommend the seafood pasta all the way. The sauce is very good and they know how to keep it eatable and not super hot.
I would definitely recommend them again. I’m going to check out the oysters next time.

We were sat quickly but we waited about 15min before our server showed up. I will say that once she did, she was very friendly. I would have scored the food better but for the price point, the oysters were tiny. I had the surf and turf. My ribeye steak was decent but the grilled shrimp was slightly over cooked. My girlfriend had the Seafood Alfredo and it was 5 star in flavor but the seafood was tiny and the portions were a bit small. Overall it was a pleasant experience and I’d spend my money there again.

The staff here were extremely friendly and attentive, loved that! I will say that I think the oysters are overpriced for what they are. They weren’t great (but not bad), they are local to Alabama which was nice. Drinks are reasonably priced. The blackened tacos were really good though! Would highly recommend those and the fried pickles.

The atmosphere was great!
The food was excellent
Greens- tender and a little bit spicy, so no hot sauce was needed. It does include meat, which im sure is pork, but it was very minimal
Blackend Red fish – kind of over cooked, which made it a little dry, but the flavor and the sauce definitely compensated for that. It also came with shrimp, which I may say was the best grilled shrimp I had EVER heard!!!
Red beans! Great. I get them everywhere i go if they are on the menu.
Now, the oyster plate from what I heard ♀️ was great as well! It made my friend do the happy dance while she ate so I’ll have to take her word for it!!!

There’s no one that can beat the taste and quality of Ruffy’s in Stanton AL. The seafood I got here wasn’t good quality the seafood platter only had one very small oyster I was highly disappointed for the price I paid vs quality of the seafood however the crab cake was pretty good.

This was my first time to visit Wintzell’s in Montgomery. My youngest has been before and she really wanted some fried green tomatoes. We were seated very fast and our server, whose name was Faith, was excellent. I had lots of questions and she was very knowledgeable about the menu and when she described the sauce that came with the tomatoes was like a crawfish gravy with mushrooms I was not sure so she put it on the side and it was delicious. The fried pickle basket was large enough to share with a large party but was also good and we brought the rest home for the rest of the family. The oyster dinner was good although the fries could have been crispier but I know I’m a harsh critic with potatoes The decorations around the establishment were very well done and at first a little overwhelming but we found ourselves reading the walls and all the various sayings that were put up and made a game out of it. It was very warm and inviting and filled up very fast but Faith checked on us regularly kept our strawberry lemonades full and made sure we had everything we needed. Great experience and I look forward to coming back to other things on the menu

My family and I ate here last night and it was an awful time honestly. First red flag when waiting for a table i noticed there were no servers on the dining floor yet plenty of full tables with no food. Once seated our server eventually came over and greeted us and took our drink and food order. We waited at least 15 minutes for our drinks for mine to come back in a dirty cup with grease residue on top! I looked for my server for a while it seemed like they disappear once they brought something out. I eventually was able to request a new drink. I asked her how long on the food she said she didn’t know because they were busy. Our table ordered gumbo and salads they were brought out with the rest of the food after waiting about an hour. However my mother’s food still didn’t come out until about 10 minutes later. My pasta was mushy and dried out like it had been sitting under the hot lamp the whole time, inedible. I have patronized this place before and never had such a poor experience. Very disappointing.
