Perfect oysters. Awesome employees. Love this place! Will definitely be back! Love the old building. They have an oyster eating contest. Yee-haw.

The grilled oysters were amazing. The fried catfish was good and the service was excellent.

Best oyster house in all the gulf coast. It's a place we make a priority every time we visit. One of Alabama's true treasures.

Great food and great atmosphere. Miss Pinky is an awesome server with excellent recommendations. Can't beat the happy hour prices. We ate 6 dozen oysters and had Miller lite draft for only $6 a pitcher.

Always get great service at the bar and great seafood. Only a mile away from my house so I love it!

Food and service was great as usual. But I was particularly disturbed by the amount of NATS I had to fight off at the downtown location. I even spoke to the waitress about the issue, with no response. That being said I will pick another location in the future .

Very much enjoyed the fried green tomatoes and their signature cocktail Dragon Drink. Quick & friendly service. Loved their patio, especially when the sun came through on a rainy day. Little easy magic!

Loved the food. Very cool place, gave us a separate room for a gathering. If you like sea food, do try this place. Staff is very courteous and parking is available right across.

Had Oyster Sampler. It was fabulous. Even found a pearl. Place is cozy and been there for years. Al is the Oyster Shucker and nice man. Everything was great! Our waitress was Gayle & she's super nice. We really chatted it up with her. Ask 4 her. I promise U won't be disappointed.

Been coming here for 35 years, since my first trip to Mobile. Start thinking about oysters on the half and a bowl of gumbo as soon as I know I'm headed in that direction. Always good food and service.

The patio to the back of the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. However, I was not impressed with the food. I ordered the low country boil and I must say I was disappointed, it just seemed like the meal needed more seasoning. Also if you are pretty hungry this is a fairly small portion so you may want to get something else. They were busy but the server did a great job.

Casual atmosphere. Erick was an excellent server offering an awesome drink recommendation. The food was delicious. I just wish they had cornbread. I'll be back to try some other menu items, but definitely enjoyed my salmon. Try the jerk chicken chili! Distinctly jerk. Distinctly chili. Somehow they made it work.

I had 1/2 dozen charred oysters and a small cup of gumbo, it cost $18 + tip. Service and food was great. However, I left hungry. It is extremely expensive for what you get. Go to the ATM before you come here to eat.

It's a come in and wait if there is no room kind of place.

Drink specials, few appetizers, and raw oysters dozen special, happy hour until 7pm.

No they don't only week day!!??

I think you may find your question/comment directed to Wintzell's management to be more productive. The Google community may be sympathetic to your lament, but we are unable to address it for you. On a whim, my guess is that the stuffed crab and the Catalina dressing we're not as popular with the general clientele as they are with you. There's no accounting for taste, as my mama always used to say.

We parked right across the street with no difficulty

Good question

The shift starts at 4 but there's a great happy hour starting at 3 every day.
