Barometer Waterfront Grille — Restaurant in Orange Beach

Edited: since my post I have been in contact with management. They apologized for the service and lack of eggs. They have also offered to make it up to us at another time. I appreciate management making the time to make it right. Original: We made a reservation for brunch. A well advertised and recommended brunch. When we arrived we were given upstairs or downstairs seating. We chose upstairs to enjoy the view and music. Live saxophone music and a beautiful view was the perfect ending to a holiday weekend. We were not greeted upstairs and quickly realized they were understaffed. A gentleman bussed the table for us and was obviously aggravated. The table next to it even commented on the aggression of the table cleaning. He threw plates, silverware, and glasses into the tub. Several items fell to the floor. Syrup was slung across the table and an attempt to clean it was made. We had to do this again before we could sit. It was on the side of the table and the wall. We were soon met with a waiter that explained the short staffing and no eggs. Yes, that is no eggs left, ran out of eggs. So our brunch was changed to an early lunch. We still enjoyed the music, scenery, and mimosas. The food we ate was good, it was not brunch and not what we went for. I am not sure if we recommended this place to our friends, but definitely...

Wow! I have been coming to Gulf Shores since the 90's and this is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. They just opened six months ago too! They have inside seating in the main restaurant on the first floor and then an upstairs bar that is outside seating. The bar had a guitarist when we were there. I really appreciated how good he was, but the music wasn't too loud either. Great place to take kids because it's at a marina so you can see the ocean, great views by the way, and look at the boats.

The food was amazing! If you like conch, they have the best conch fritters in the USA. The pieces of conch are big and tasty. I had the grouper with a lemon sauce. My only complaint is that I wanted more grouper! My wife had a cajun jambalaya pasta with a cream sauce. I really loved hers too. I took the bread pudding home for dessert and it was very sweet and very good. Very rich, so be careful. Drinks were presented neatly and were delicious. The staff was on their game too. Great atmosphere, great food, great scenery. We...

10/10 Stars – Outstanding Experience at The Barometer Waterfront Grille

From the moment we stepped into the beautifully designed lobby, we were welcomed with warmth by a gracious hostess. The coastal, elegant atmosphere immediately set a relaxing tone for the evening.

Our server was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. She offered thoughtful recommendations, including unique menu items not found elsewhere in town. Service was prompt, and each course arrived perfectly timed.

The food was exceptional. The filet was incredibly tender—truly “butter knife” soft. The shrimp scampi was flavorful, and the Cajun pasta was the standout favorite of the evening. Even our notoriously picky kids finished every bite, which speaks volumes about the quality and appeal of the dishes.

Clean, refined, and inviting, The Barometer Waterfront Grille offers a dining experience that’s as impressive as its waterfront views. Highly...
