WELCOME TO THE COLONY GRILL
Established in 2002, the Colony Grill has become an Eastern Shore fixture offering Steaks, Seafood, Spirits, and an Award Winning Wine List in an atmosphere that has won the award for Baldwin County's "Most Romantic Restaurant". Our full service bar offers an entertaining alternative to the casual/elegant main dining area.
Many of our customers would consider The Colony Grill to be a Steak House because of our succulent prime cuts of beef, veal, lamb, and prime rib. However, our fresh seafood has also become our calling card.
The Colony Grill's philosophy on cooking is to strive towards preparing the freshest quality of products indigenous to our area. Our Gulf Coast location allows us to obtain the very best seafood and produce. We commonly have daily deliveries of black grouper, silver queen corn, and squash, all grown or caught locally. These items change as quickly as the seasons that produce them.
With our regional location, many influences feflect on our style of cuisine. Our locally milled grits would resemble those enjoyed by the Choctaw and Chickawaw Indian tribes, who originally settled around Mobile Bay. Our fresh produce, seafood, and cuts of meat revel in our classic Beurre Blanc and Meuniere sauce; a kickback to the days of French settlement. Our Crab Jubilee pays homage to a local phenomenon called a Jubilee. When weather conditions cooperate, fish, eels, crabs, and shrimp become disoriented and oxygen deficient. They are forced to search for air along our Eastern Shore break. Our version of the Jubilee utilizes local lump crabmeat, local green tomatoes, locally milled cornmeal, and hollandaise sauce. Both Jubilees are a joy to behold!
This idea of peak-fresh seafood and produce combines with our area's culinary history to create new world international flavors without straying from our roots. We take advantage of our resources by utilizing a two-part menu; a fixed menu that offers items available on a year-round basis, and a flexible "special creations" insert.
We pride ourselves on the ambience, culinary creativity, and wine selections that greet our customers nightly. Please join our Colony Grill family for dinner Tuesday thru Saturday to see why we have become a tradition on the Eastern Shore. |
