Take the kids and enjoy a couple hours at LuLu's! Eat some seafood, take the rope climbing challenge, shop at the gift store, and enjoy a nice specialty drink while viewing the intercostal waterway.

15 min wait wasn't bad especially with the gift shop to browse. Live music was awesome. Got the blackened shrimp and LOVED IT. Best server we had during our whole trip.

Greatest..place...ever! My zen spot. I'm usually here around 10 times a year (since opening in 04). Has gotten VERY touristy, but still wonderful. Thank you Lucy for making my happy place! Fins up!

The fish tacos were great and the Gouda grits were outstanding. I think there the same they use in the shrimp and grits. Also try the Cadillac margarita its yummy.

It is my favorite place! A must try is their chips, salsa, & queso!!! And of course a cheeseburger in paradise goes great with a jet ski killer on the rocks!

Get there early to avoid a long wait. Fried crab claws are the best you can get anywhere. Great service too. Our #1 favorite place to eat in Gulf Shores!
Amy DavisSeptember 15, 2015
Had a long wait but there was so much to do we didn't notice. Shrimp tacos were great. Service was good and the live music was the best!! He was hilarious.

I have a bunch of food allergies and they were VERY accommodating.. A manager walks the food every step of the way- greatly appreciated! Service was great, food was great, atmosphere was great!!
Jon ThompsonJuly 16, 2015
Cheeseburgers were great, quesadillas were good, get the Bushwacker! Kids had fun on the ropes course.
David LunaAugust 14, 2015
Love the location, the atmosphere, the food, and the drinks! Awesomeness! We come here every time we vacation in Orange Beach.
Sally AnneJuly 17, 2013
Get there early. We got there around 430 on a weekday, less than an hour wait. Food was awesome and so was the service. Really a neat place for the whole family.
Kari PettitApril 2, 2015
After reading tips we had the crab melt and smokes tuna dip. Both were AMAZING!! I don't really even like tuna! Try it with Lulas hot sauce.
Rhianon DeHartJuly 20, 2023
Everything was great! The crazy sisters crab dip. Fried green tomatoes. Onion rings Key West bowl… fish tacos!
Alabama Year of FoodJanuary 13, 2012
LuLu's menu is full of fresh seafood and other fried favorites, but don't pass over on some Lulu's originals: Lower Alabama Caviar and LuLu's version of the Cheeseburger in Paradise.

Their commitment to quality is reflected in the decision to buy locally produced items whenever possible. Everything from the tomatoes to their grass-fed beef for the cheeseburgers come from nearby. Read more

Owned by Lucy "Lulu" Buffett, Jimmy's sister, Lulu's at Homeport is a popular restaurant on the Intracoastal Waterway serving up delicious homecooked seafood and live music every night!

Best atmosphere at any restaurant ANYWHERE!!! We love that Crazy Sista!!! Gotta go every time we are in Gulf Shores!
Susan HarrisApril 14, 2013
Excellent time. Great fun and family atmosphere! Band was awesome! Worth the trip.
CJ StricklandOctober 11, 2013
I'd suggest the smoked tuna dip as an appetizer. You will NOT be dissapointed. Such a succulent flavor that compliments all of the other dishes LuLu's has to offer.
Daniel TannerMay 20, 2020
The grits are awesome as well as the fish tacos. Try a Cadillac margarita as well yummy
Tim GoyetteAugust 11, 2014
The guacamole & chips and mahi tacos were both good. A fun place!
Taunya KingMay 30, 2013
Atmosphere is with the wait to eat. Great fun for the kiddos. Love the live music. Hush puppies are amazing!
GulfscapesAugust 18, 2011
Don't miss the Fresh Air Market - happens each Saturday Memorial Day through Labor Day - only three Saturdays left to come out and enjoy this great showcase for local and regional artists.
Daniel TannerJanuary 8, 2021
Once again always good from the food (shrimp& grits) to the alcohol (skinny margarita).
Allen JolleyMay 12, 2015
Very popular. My family loves it. I'm not a fan. I like a more authentic feel. It's forced.
Jeanna ChandlerJuly 22, 2015
Fried green tomatoes are pretty good. This place is fun to hang out, have a drink or play volleyball. Food is pricy and wait is LONG.
Mike OakleyAugust 15, 2015
Appetizers, seafood and the entire atmosphere!
Aly SuttonJune 1, 2013
This place is AMAZING! The entertainment they have for the kids is AWESOME! If only every restaurant was like this:)
Meika McclendonJuly 21, 2012
Never have I waited for 2 hours to be seated but my son loved playing while we waited and the Long Island Teas made the wait enjoyable. The burger was off the chain.
Susan LassereSeptember 26, 2014
Boy oh boy....Fixing 2 eat dinner right on the water. Drinking margaritas with the breeze blowing & band playing. Headed 2 the beach sooonnnnn:-)

John TAugust 14, 2014
Everything is awesome!! Super family friendly, great food at reasonable prices!
Anna ItalianoMarch 7, 2013
Great food & service. Crab melt was to die for! We say outside and was able to see the dolphins too. Best part of my trip!
Cate CrandellFebruary 10, 2013
Let them know if you have a food allergy and the manager will serve you! There's live music every day of the week!
JenKuduSeptember 25, 2013
After a very long wait, the food does NOT disappoint. The fish sandwich is so fresh and delicious.
Lesley S.August 18, 2013
As a native Gulf Coast res. I wasn't impressed. The gumbo had a sweetness to it....yuck, shrimp poboy was pretty good, gouda grits were chewy...grits should NOT be chewy. Atmosphere was great.
@MisterHirschSeptember 26, 2011
Looking for a good frozen drink? Try the Jet Ski Killer, a refreshing tropical drink that you won't be able to have just one.
Kristen ChannelJuly 18, 2013
The complimentary bottled water and popcorn are great for hangry kids while you wait for a table.
Larry CooperJuly 12, 2021
The atmosphere. Plus, the have good music playing.
Al BrownAugust 8, 2016
The seafood basket for two was really good, so was Lulu's ale!
Alyce JenningsSeptember 24, 2012
Excellent service; get Taisa as a waitress! Try the crab melt and the mahi tacos; they are amazing!
Kevin WestbrookMay 27, 2015
Their shrimp and grits are proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.
Crystal NettlesJuly 4, 2013
Manager comes out to take allergy order to make sure it's correct. Awesome. Gluten free menu :)
Naiomi IngramOctober 8, 2015
Based on reviews I ordered the Mahi Tacos. Worst meal I've ever eaten in my entire life. No exaggeration. 3 bland dry mini tacos with half a bag of corn chips on my plate. Such a disappointment.
Aaron GrebnerSeptember 14, 2018
The food is good, but expensive for what it is. The restaurant is hot and not enough fans to keep it cool. My margarita was pure tequila. If it wasn’t $8 I wouldn’t have drank it.
Laura HighAugust 27, 2011
The setting here is fun and just how it should be on vacation! The Fried Green Tomato BLT is fab!
Hakimm RashidNovember 12, 2019
Shredded cheese burger with fried tomatoes, and the gumbo
Jessica ThelenJuly 6, 2012
Long wait but totally worth it! Try a Landshark (bottle or draft)! It's the beer of Jimmy Buffett!
