Had dinner for three today. Mistie was our server and she was very prompt, and made sure our glasses were filled. Started off with a Shrimp Cocktail. The shrimp was flavorful and the sauce gave it an extra kick, nice appetizer. I had the Bayou Special which is a snapper fillet which I chose to broil, it was topped with crab meat, and a creamy cajun ...

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! Living on the coast my entire life I have been eating at McElroys since I could crawl. I was so excited after Katrina when the Ocean Springs location was open. I couldn't wait to eat there and feel some type of 'normallcy' after the storm. IT WAS HORRIBLE!!!! I couldn't believe it! The food was ...

We visited Biloxi recently and were looking forward to enjoying the food at McElroy's. We were disappointed in the gumbo and especially the po-boys which were not pressed. We asked why and the waitress said they didn't have a press??

Wow, this place gets the big thumbs down! Everything is fried and it all tasted like old catfish. Have you ever TRIED to eat a french fry that smelled like old catfish? You try not to breath through your nose...It was BAD. I quietly let our very unattentive waiter know and (bless the youth) he just said he'll let the cooks know. No comp or ...

I was EXTREMELY disappointed in this restaurant... I went there for the first time after reading all the rave reviews when my mother in law came into town... needless to say, we were quite embarassed at not only the food quality, but the service as well. Our server was completely unattentive and the food was VERY overpriced. I ordered the shrimp ...

I worked at this restaurant while I attended high school betweeen 1985 & 86. To come back and enjoy the same gumbo and shrimp poboy I had 23 years ago while I was an employee at this restaurant is remarkable. I can almost see Bob greeting guest and cleaning Ms. Diane's glasses while Lorain jumped on my butt. If you get a chance to eat at ...

My husband and I as well as a friend had an enjoyable meal at McElroy's last evening. Although my husband did not receive the shrimp he order on the side, it was an honest mistake. The food was prompt in coming, served hot, and tasted quite good. My daughter suggested the crab cakes, and I was quite pleased. My hard-to-please friend smiled as she took her first bite of her meal. Now, that's a plus!!!!

We ate at McElroy's last night and were completely dissapointed! The service was poor and the food was terrible. We found the prices to be high considering the low portions and the fried seafood was the worst I have eaten in years. Save your money for a place worth eating at and avoid this tourist trap!
