Pop’s Oyster Bar & Grill

Had a great time in July 2015 during my in-​laws family reunion. We enjoyed great drinks, food, entertainment, and my own family while I was in Enterprise… travelled from Miami, and even though I have been to Alabama more times than I can remember… I can honestly say this was the best time I ever had in my adult life.

Called in a pick up order to Pop’s tonight. The lady over the phone was extremely sweet. I arrived at Pop’s to find an older man behind the counter that was so welcoming and chill. The 1 ½ pints of raw oysters I picked up were superb. And might I add cheaper than anywhere in Dothan. Will be going back even if it’s a 25 – 30 minute drive.

We knew this restaurant wasn’t going to be superb but our experience was absolutely horrible. When you first walk in the restaurant you get slapped in the face with what smelled like dirty mop water, after we were seated I had to ask for a wet rag because our menus were sticking to the tables. Now for the worst part, we ordered 1 dozen steamed oysters and 1 dozen raw. The waitress explained that their «raw» oysters were extremely small and suggested we get 2 dozen steamed, so we did. I have never seen such small oysters, not to mention they were over cooked and with at least half of them had pieces of shell in them. If you are looking for oysters, Dothan is WORTH the drive. (Hunts Oyster Bar is amazing!)

It was nice… the music could have been a little bit better by adding variety with the old school R&B that was bring played!

Visited the establishment Friday night with a group of friends. The service was incredibly slow. Food was served on plastic plates, everything was flatware for that matter. Fried flounder was over cooked. After waiting for over one hour, the waitress informed one of our party members that the entrée she ordered was out. Not a good dining experience at all and I would not recommend to anyone!

Lacking quality and consistency. Needs to decide whether they want to be a restaurant, club or bar. The operation as a whole lacks professionalism. Quality of food, very low.

Finally!!! Back in LA for Pop’s good cooking!!! I really love this place!!! Laid back atmosphere, waitress tells you to find a seat, and oysters that are so good it’s like you picked them yourself. This is a really laid back place that serves some very good seafood. Crawfish is soooo delicious! I highly recommend it! If you love seafood, they probably have it on the menu and will make sure you go home happy!!!

Awesome food. Crawfish are done perfect. Good portions and price. Very friendly staff. Try it once and you’ll be hooked. Visit when ever you are at Ft Rucker.

Had the raw oysters ($ 9.99/dozen), ice cold and delicious even with a few pieces of shell, the shrimp po boy ($ 9.99), loaded with perfectly cooked shrimp and fresh toppings, and Yuengling on draft ($ 3), good as always.

Ok we went to the new location and did not know what to expect. The hostess gave me menus and pointed to a table and told me that it was ours as she walked to another table. This being my 1^st impression I thought this was going to suck. We ordered raw oysters and some friends ordered baked. The raw were fine as it is hard to judge because all they do is shuck them. The baked were awesome. The cooks are not scared of seasoning. I ordered crab legs hoping for the best and was awed at how good everything was. I will be going back. Yah it is still has the remnants of a Mexican restaurant, but do not let that fool you! Ended up having a great time.

Stopped in for some oysters, snow crab & drinks. Great service, but waitress mistakenly rang up Alaskan king crabs for my ticket resulting in 9.00 over charge. I asked her to fix it, her boss would not let her redo it. She said to take it out of her tip. Apparently the boss thought it was ok to punish her and make some extra $ off of me. Food was good, but only giving one star for thug like management.

it has moved. the Unilocal location next to mellow yellow is wrong.
it is down the street ½ mile

I’ve lived in Enterprise for ten years but had never visited Pop’s before. Lil’ Jimmy Reed was playing there (old school blues) so my wife and I went. After a cocktail, I ordered their platter and my wife ordered red snapper. It looked like the only way they cook is by frying. My dinner was delicious (for fried). I had oysters, nice sized pieces of flounder, shrimp, and hush puppies. My wife’s fish wasn’t good. It was cooked with the skin on, and was «tough». I’m dubious about it actually being snapper. It looked and tasted more like catfish. The atmosphere isn’t all that great, but it’s a bar and grill. I thought the prices were a little on the high side considering everything, but not outlandish. For a total of three cocktails (absolut & cranberry) and our two plates, the ticket was $ 45. If I go back, it will be more for an entertainment event, not the food.

Moved to a new location, ex-​Mexican joint. Oysters were OK, nothing special. Rest of the meal was decent at best. I love hip-​hop, but they were playing some seriously dirty booty music. Two waitresses came by to apologise, but no one changed it. Definitely not the best seafood in the Wiregrass. Wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re in the mood for a slightly raunchy seafood joint with Mexican décor and a booty club vibe.

This place was terrible! First, they shucked the oysters incorrectly so there were pieces of shell in the meat. They were covered in cheese so you couldn’t see them but instead had to find the shards with your teeth. The gumbo was lukewarm and the rice in it was undercooked. The grilled scallops were over seasoned but edible. The crab legs were good but how can you mess those up? The waitress was overwhelmed even though it was a slow night. She did keep our drinks full but kept rushing away before we could give her our order. The check was definitely wrong. My husband looked at it and said it was $ 75. We gave her a $ 20 and our card and when she brought the check back it was $ 60 (after supposedly taking the $ 20 off).We asked to see the original check and it had $ 70 circled then off to the side $ 80. When I figured it out at home it actually should have been $ 76 after tax. I have no idea how she got the total or if she pocketed the $ 5 after we made it clear the $ 20 was not a tip. So if you do decide to chance it here double check your check!

The oysters here are mediocre but the other seafood meals that we have had here are not all that great. I have been here a few times trying to find something on the menu that is mind blowingly good but have yet to find anything. I asked the waitress about the different foods they had there, specifically the gumbo but she said she had no idea. I asked her about a couple other things on the menu as we’ll and she had no idea. They were out of a few beers on their menu and this seems to be a reoccurring problem so be flexible if you eat here. The atmosphere was crowded and loud so take that into consideration before you pick this place. If you want a great seafood place with amazing oysters I would recommend Hunt’s in Dothan.

If you looking for oysters in Enterprise this is the place to go. Very nice people behind the bar and very reasonable prices. The atmosphere could use updating. Other then the look nice place for oysters and a drink.

Not filthy… but not exactly clean either! Sticky tables, floors, etc. but, since we are in Enterprise which is the equivalent of living in a campground I kept a stiff upper lip and went with the «when in Rome» mentality! The raw and parm/​butter oysters were good. That is the ONLY reason I gave them 2 stars vs 1! But, keep in mind those two items are fairly difficult to screw up. The shrimp étouffée was SUPER salty and the shrimp were tiny, over cooked, & rubbery = gross! Next, we were served our «grilled» scallops. I can not emphasis enough how incredibly disgusting these were… they were not grilled, they appeared to be pan fried in an overwhelming amount of fake butter (as they were YELLOW!!!) with lemon and some sort of over powering seasoning = totally disgusting/​inedible!!! Finally, they managed to ruin perfectly good snow crab by overly seasoning with old bay (or some sort of equivalent) –yuck! And, the drawn butter was not even butter!!! Seriously!!! They can’t even serve real butter!!! No wet naps for cleaning finger tips afterward. And, everything was served on plastic plates, Styrofoam «dinner» plates had to be asked for and plastic utensils were all the rage here! Ummm, so much for the green movement! Our waitress was friendly, but had to be prompted to bring us more drinks and reminded about bringing out our sides… and she did NOT remove the inedible scallops from our bill! A disappointing «dining» experience. If you like fried crappy seafood (which appears to be indicative of this area) you’ll enjoy Pop’s. If you have a more experienced palate and want to give this place a shot, do yourself a favor and just stick to the no frills oysters (i.e., no mignonette, no sorbet, etc!). And, don’t expect a nice or even mediocre glass of bubbly to go with… the only effervescent beverage they have are the beers and the soda. Pop’s succeeded in making me miss Cali even more!

We heard good reviews about this place from some locals and should have ignored it.
When you walk in the place just looks unkept. It doesn’t look like a place that would serve clean seafood. And boy was I right. I ordered a dozen raw oysters on the half and I get them, freshly chucked… but NOT cleaned. There was dirt, sand, and black shit all over the oysters. I had to separately dip each of them into a cup of water to clean it myself. My husband ordered the fish and it was cooked well, however it was drowned in butter and salt so that killed it.
The only good tasting thing in this ‘hole’ was the cocktail sauce, and I pray that they bought that from someone else.
…never again.

Ok so here is your warning. The food was less than OK, i would say it was edible, the place doesn’t have a very clean appearance, the food took forever and a day. Ive lived in Hawaii for almost 10 years and been to countless seafood restaurants that didn’t smell like dirty crotch. I don’t think ill be going back to this place anytime soon unless they make some serious changes.
