For more than 20 years, award winning DeSoto’s Seafood Kitchen has been serving lunch and dinner to a loyal following of visitors and locals. Seasoned visitors just won’t come to Gulf Shores without a trip or two (or three) to DeSoto’s. And it’s for good reasons as any local will attest to!
It’s not just the blue building, palm trees, flag pole and iconic DeSoto’s Seafood Kitchen signage that makes this restaurant standout; it’s also their unmatched beach personality that defines the restaurant as a Gulf Shores tradition. With your first step inside you’ll immediately know you’ve landed on a beachside favorite. Not only does it look the part, aquarium and all, it feels the part and you know you’re heading to a seafood feast.
DeSoto’s features exquisite appetizers including alligator bites and fried blue crab claws. The dinner menu has all the seafood favorites you would expect prepared your way: fried, broiled, grilled, blackened, steamed, or Cajun style. Try the fresh catch and have it prepared New Orleans, Mediterranean, Caribbean, or their house favorite Pecan Encrusted Style. But with more than seafood, DeSoto’s menu includes chicken and pasta dishes and a great Hawaiian Ribeye steak. An amazing variety with something to please everyone.
If you can’t wait for dinner, DeSoto’s lunch menu is equally appealing. Everything you would expect seafood including salads, hearty sandwiches including a tasty Monte Cristo and Po-boys, delicious pasta and home-style daily lunch specials. Talking about specials, the seniors menu leaves nothing untouched and kids menu is sure to please, with French fries of course.
Close to the beach, seafood galore, comfort food and daily specials, now that all adds up to a Gulf Shores tradition. Bring the family or friends and see why DeSoto’s has been voted best lunch and dinner 14 years in a row.
