The last distinguishing characteristic while dining at each restaurant is the atmosphere. The atmosphere at Pappadeux is as if you are attending a social function, while the atmosphere at Red Lobster brings back memories of being at a restaurant on St. Simons Island. At Pappadeux, the table all have white table cloths and there are decorative features along the outside and interior of the building. While you dine there will be soft, relaxing, music that is being played throughout the restaurant. The dining experience offers the atmosphere of seclusion although you are surrounding by other diners. This provides for a feeling of elegance. The atmosphere at Red Lobster conveys an entirely different ambience, the lobby contains a tank that holds the lobster that will be served to you, and the children that are visiting the restaurant are all excited over watching the lobster fight causing a ruckus of noise, which is understandable because it goes with the noise level at the restaurant. Very few decorations are on the walls and there are minimal decorative items throughout the restaurant. The seating is different at each restaurant also, at Pappadeux the wait staffs try and sit families in the same area with small children so that the other patrons are not disturbed if they are trying to enjoy an elegant dinner. At Red Lobster you are seated where ever the seating is

Sure there are steakhouses and fancy restaurants of all stripes, but where the local Gulfport dining scene really impresses is in the quality of its fresh seafood options. From humble beachside po’ boy shacks all the way up to the areas four-star raw bars, the seafood here, at any price, is bound to amaze and satisfy.
When I first walk into the restaurant, Im alway immeditaly greeted by a smiling hostess. Typically on a week day, the wait time is normally very short and youre almosy guaranteed a seat right after arriving. However on a weekend the wait time can be a bit longer, such as fifteen to twenty minutrs, but outdoor seating is provided so you dont have to stand and wait. When you are finally seated, a friendly waiter is always ready to happily serve you with a smile. The employees are always on top of giving out refills for drinks and they provide customers with all you can eat peanuts and encourage you to just toss the shells on the floor when youre done.

The island's access to surrounding gulf waters gives residents of Port Aranasas an easy way to catch some of the best seafood in America. Almost every weekend during the summer months is filled with fishing tournaments and seafood related events. For a deep-see excursion, residents can charter a boat or a captain. For a more land-based experience, fishing enthusiasts can take to the shores or the public piers.
For a contemporary and elevated meal served in a charming setting complete with a brick-lined wall, enjoy a trip to Lou Bird’s in Philadelphia.

The restaurant offers a Southern-inspired menu packed with a wide range of fresh fish and oysters, traditional New Orleans food, vegetarian, chicken and red meat offerings. The menu changes creatively and seasonally. The freshness of the products derives from the restaurant`s strategy of sourcing the fish and shellfish directly from Steve Connolly Seafood in Boston, which offers high-quality products purchased directly from the fishermen. Also in order to support the community Maxie`s Supper Club and Oyster Bar uses local and organic vegetables and meats. The restaurant “greatly believes in the power of community involvement and the enrichment and mutual benefits which are reaped by everyone when local and regional products are supported.” Every Sunday and Tuesday the guests can enjoy the local and regional live music performance while tasting delicious and quality food. The restaurant sometimes engages in fundraising as well in order to help the community. The very helpful and detailed website is updated monthly with coming events and new seasonal
When it comes to dining-in at a restaurant we all want the best service that we can get. When I think of “the best service” I think about the cleanliness, nice waitresses, good food, and affordable prices. There are so many different options when a family thinks about going out to eat, especially if they have small children. It’s often hard to go to a nice dine-in restaurant because sometimes it’s hard to find something on the menu for everyone in the family. I have experienced many things at two completely different restaurants. I can say Demos’ is better than Logan’s because the food and service is much better.

These restaurants are known locally as "Ruddy Duck" and "Red Fish". While they are both seafood restaurants located only a block away from each other, they have many differences as well as similarities. For many people deciding between the two is quite the task. Let's take a minute to compare the two great establishments, which may help with deciding which would be the best choice.
At the beach the restaurants are mostly seafood. They also serve fresh caught food which makes it taste so good. The beach also has a few steak houses and little family restaurants which appeal to their way of life. Reservations are an option at almost every place but not required. Restaurants in the city consist of everything you could imagine. They have restaurants from famous people, like Bobby Flay and B.B.King, and ones from every ethnicity ranging from African to Vietnamese. They are also very packed and reservations are usually required. The price difference is also a key ingredient. At a seafood restaurant at the beach you could spend thirty dollars or less per person and leave satisfied and full; to where at a city restaurant it may cost you a hundred dollars or more for two people to leave with that same feeling.
People all around the world are busy. Busy with work, school and other extra activities. No one ever has time to cook, so families are always going out to eat at a restaurant.

As you head toward the entrance of the restaurant, you will see hosts standing in the lobby to greet people with bright smiles on their faces. The hosts ask how many are eating and once you tell them the number, and pay at the entrance, the host will asks where you would like to sit. The restaurant has red, smooth, comfortable leather booths, which the guest can sit in. Furthermore, people have a choice between sitting down in the back or near a window. The restaurant is enormous and has attractive colors which make the room spacious, a lot of interesting pictures, and other decorations on the walls. The entire restaurant is packed with people eating, sharing laughter, and enjoying their meal.
