The Fisherman's Wife Carrabelle

This is a fantastic, classic seafood restaurant. They offer a variety of fresh seafood options that can be prepared fried, grilled, or blackened. The menu is beautifully curated, featuring a selection of appetizers, seafood baskets, dinners, and a children's menu. I tried the fried grouper dinner and it was excellent. My wife enjoyed the fried snapper and black shrimp, and she was very satisfied with her meal. Our waitress provided excellent service, keeping our drinks refilled. The food was served quickly and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this restaurant for delicious seafood.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We ordered the shrimp and crab basket with fried mushrooms and fried green tomatoes, everything was served hot and fresh. The batter was light and flavorful, not greasy at all. It was the only restaurant we could find in Carabelle, but we were glad we stumbled upon it.

When you visit a restaurant in a small town, you never quite know what to expect, especially if it's housed in an old building or, in this particular case, a converted old house with multiple dining rooms. However, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience here. The service was quick and friendly, but the real standout was the food. The seafood platter was generous, featuring a large portion of grouper, a dozen shrimp, around 25 bay scallops, a crab cake, 2 hush puppies, and a choice of 2 sides (I opted for corn nuggets and cheesy grits). It was double the amount of food I'd get in larger cities, and it was cooked to perfection. I was truly impressed by the quality coming out of this small kitchen. Speaking with the server, I found out that all the seafood is sourced fresh from right down the road. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience that exceeded my expectations.

The fish dishes here are not too bad at all. we ordered the cloak basket, some scallops a la cart and the cod basket. if they order the basket, then they can choose a side to go with it. the garnels were broken and deep fried to perfection. I was particularly impressed by the taste of the teig that was not too salty or too pale. if they are hungry, the baskets do not have particularly large portions, so they go to dinner. the decoration was acceptable as it seems to be an old house rebuilding. the waiting staff was very polite and helpful. when they are in carabelle and like seafood, they give this place a try.

The staff worked hard, they were efficient but the food was less than par and unfortunately I won't ever come back. There were lots of good reviews but it just wasn't that good. Crab cakes were horrible. Fried scallops tasted like chlorine water. Hush puppies were not very good either.
