Fisher's

At Ant Farm, we love good design, and we love good food.

Down the winding little road through an Orange Beach residential area, and around the corner at the docks, Fisher’s at Orange Beach Marina is a city gem well hidden, but widely talked about. Two dining experiences under the same roof, Fisher’s is a must-stop whilst in the area, whether you’re looking for an unforgettably delicious brunch with family, or an upscale and beautiful dinner with friends. Tis beautifully designed space is the home of Fisher’s Dockside and Fisher’s Upstairs, both being run as separate restaurants.

Fisher’s Dockside opens at 11:00pm every day other than Sunday, on which it ofers a mouthwatering brunch at 10:00am. Te thoughtful design of the place will keep your eyes entertained as it features open garage doors, a green courtyard surrounded by herbs and citrus trees, and overlooks the marina. It also includes a gentleman's bar, splashed with beautiful green tile, where the staf knows how to make a great cocktail. It’s decorated with a more nautical beach style, in the way that it should be done, and the food delivered to your table will be just as beautifully and thoughtfully styled as your surroundings. Tis is all thanks to the award winning Executive Chef, Bill Briand, who spent seven years with Emeril Lagasse and nine with Donald Link.

Teir brunch menu ofers delicious and exclusive southern dishes such as smoked brisket hash, fried oyster benedict, and a wonderful creme brulee battered french toast. And for those who want to truly indulge (you're on vacation, afer all), the black eyed pea hummus with fried pita is a must for an appetizer, as well as the white chocolate coconut bread pudding for dessert.

Te ground foor is entirely pleasant; however, if you follow the stairs located near the side entrance of the building, you’ll fnd yourself in Fisher’s Upstairs— and you’ll never want to leave. Following a similar aesthetic to the Dockside, Upstairs accomplishes a sense of luxury that is difcult to match locally. Tough very upscale, it feels entirely comfortable and welcoming; from the eye-catching stark white outdoor lounge area, to the indoor living and dining room-esque decor, you feel as though you are dining on a modern day Titanic. Portholes act as windows down the hall, allowing visitors to peek into the kitchen as they watch their delicious meals being prepared by the unmatchably talented culinary staf. Fisher’s upstairs opens every afernoon at 5:00pm, and requires a reservation.

Fisher's ofers the experience we all desire from a restaurant at the beach, but in a way that is untainted by the tacky tourist culture that has permeated so many establishments. Teir menu reminds us of the words of Jacques Yves Cousteau, "Te sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever." Te same could be said of Fisher's.
