Oh my.  Be sure to wear maternity pants- even the men.  We went here for lunch and it was amazing. Try the buffalo shrimp appetizer or the sautéed scallops.  For a true snug fit in the maternity pants- add the fried shrimp appetizer.  Service was wonderful.  Homemade slaw and tarter sauce were delicious.  It was so good I wanted to propose- to my scallops.  Enjoy!
Review Source:Lunch at noon on Wed. Not crowded but still waiter returned to ask what we ordered then still got order wrong and I never got my salad. Service terrible. Food was not impressive. So many better places to go if you drive down to Orange Beach area. I should have saved the $30 for two and eaten snacks from gas station.
Review Source:Went with a super large group for a Family Reunion. Â Considering our crowd, they did a great job serving us. Â We especially enjoyed the seafood pasta dishes. Â A sister company to The Shrimp Basket which is a block away, Mikee's maybe a great option when the weather is too bad to sit outside.
Review Source:Tuesday all you can eat whitefish! $9.99 two sides such a great bargain and classic southern fried fish meal.
This joint is a sister property to Shrimp Basket a block away, very similar menu only Mikee's has additional pasta dishes with seafod. Â
I do like Shriimp Baskets hush puppies better however. Â Might just have been the batch I didn't like however.
There were so many things wrong with this place that I don't even know where to begin. I should start out by stating that being from New Orleans, most of our restaurants know good/fresh seafood and how to cook it right. I wish that I could just say we must have ordered the wrong thing but everything else was messed up from the second we walked in the door.
Restaurants in Gulf Shores must cater more towards snowbirds. Therefore many of them don't need to stay open late and they close at 9pm. After finding this out the hard way at two other restaurants we came across Mikee's. My husband & I went in, and before trying to get a table, we wanted to make sure that it would still be open, seeing as it was already 8:50. There was no one at the door, we waited a while before I turned to a busser and asked the hours. He clearly didn't speak English so he just shook his head and ignored me. The bartender must have seen this exchange from the midst of her tiny bar, packed with 20 something, collar popped- obnoxiously drunk guys, and she hollered at us, "11 o'clock!"
We got a server's attention next so we could grab a table. She asked first if we had a reservation, once we told her no she said she needed to go make sure there wasn't a wait. She left us and fled through the small narrow room full of empty tables. Â Seriously? We waited a while more before she finally came back and sat us. We spent so much time waiting for our own server, we noticed there were these blank canvas looking panels that hung from the ceiling in rows. Not sure why they were there and neither did our server who finally popped up after about 15 minutes.
We decided to play it safe and just get fried seafood. My husband is allergic to shrimp so he asked what the "whitefish" on the menu was. Our server told us she had no idea but in her opinion it was better than the catfish. So he ordered it, turns out it was more like a glorified fishstick than anything else. I don't even want to know what the catfish is like! My shrimp was definitely not fresh and everything else that came with the platter (and was clearly all fried together) was haphazardly piled on top which left my measly shrimp drowning in grease at the bottom.
We both chose the fries as our side which we realized half way through our meal, they must have been out of because they substituted them for a ridiculous amount of tiny, pre-frozen okra slices. Also the hush puppies and corn fritters that came with both of our plates were not cooked all the way through...
Ok, I could go on and on about more things that this restaurant has going wrong for them but I won't. I will just say that it was by far the worst waste of $70, for two platters and 2 beers. I didn't think I could even write a review about how crappy this experience was but I feel like people should be warned. Â The other reviewers here either have extremely low standards or caught them on a very, very good day and under different management.
Mikee's offers fresh seafood, several selections - last night I had Mahi-Mahi and my husband had triggerfish. Â Both of us had it blackened - nice to have choices other than fried! Â The corn fritters were yummy and the veggies were perfectly crisp tender. Â The prices were very reasonable and overall we were very happy with good food at a good value.
