What an amazing spot for incredibly fresh seafood on Dauphin Island. We stopped by here probably too many times during our trip, it was just that great. We tried a huge variety of steamed seafood including scallops, snow crab, crab claws, oysters, and lobster tails, but the show stealer was by far the Argentinian Royal Reds that they keep in the freezer. They are deveined/butterflied and come in 2lb bags, and after having them steamed I enjoyed the tastiest, sweetest, plumpest shrimp I’ve ever had in my life. I think over the course of the week we ate ~10 lbs of these guys. Friggin amazing!

Be wary, if you are a fan of seafood (particularly shellfish) you may find yourself dropping a lot of $$ to try everything that there is to offer — and it will be worth every penny!

I ordered 1/2 lb of oysters and scallops. This is not 1/2 lb of oysters. The service was very unpleasant and unwelcoming. Especially the mother and son. The corn was the only decent thing in my platter.

We got the steamed dinner with shrimp, royal reds, snow crab legs, sausage, corn and potatoes and it did not disappoint. The mild spice level had a nice little kick to it and it was absolutely amazing. The best crab legs I’ve ever had. Well worth it.

My husband is a lover of seafood and is often left disappointed when he gets it anywhere besides home, but not at Skinners! He ordered steamed shrimp with corn and it was amazing! He wished he tried it sooner so he could've ordered from them twice during our trip. Price was low and quality was high!

This place is absolutely amazing! We stayed at Dauphin Island for a week and went here 3 times. The fish was absolutely delicious and their steamer dishes were great. On our way out the kind gentleman brought the cooler back to our camper on our way out of town. We will definitely be back. Thanks so much for your kindness and recommendations!

I picked up a hot oyster lunch from Skinner's Seafood. It was prepared quickly and freaking delicious. They have a number of meal options as well as a good selection of fresh seafood to take home and prepare yourself. I'd say more, but I think I want to go get so more food...

This may be obvious, but it's not allergen-friendly if you have a shellfish allergy.

This is a great place. First thing, this is not a sit-down restaurant. Skinner's is a seafood market. They offer fresh seafood caught from the Gulf such as red fish, red snapper, varieties of shrimp, scallops, and much more. Skinner's will steam the seafood for you, and they also offer call in orders for pickup. They sell spices, breading and other things that you can purchase for preparing seafood if you want to cook it yourself. Their health grade is a 99, and it's posted on the back wall with two previous ratings of 99. I ordered the red snapper, and shrimp, and a side of coleslaw and corn on the cob. The fish and shrimp were fresh, very good, and the slaw was too. The corn on the cob was nothing special, but I wasn't there for the corn. If you're looking for something different besides waiting in line for a restaurant this would be a good option.

We called ahead and ordered snow crab, blue crab (spicy and mild), sausage, potatoes, corn, and chowder. The food was ready right on time. Everything was delicious. Although the spicy crab was good, the heat was enough to obscure the sweet crab a bit. The mild was perfect. Our chowder was obviously prepared fresh, with large chunks of crab and shrimp. Would definitely return and recommend to anyone else stopping at Dauphin Island.
