Our first time here, we loved it! The food and drinks were really good and the service was top notch! We had the shrimp and catfish platter! Sooo much food! Cole slaw was really well flavored and salad was nice and fresh! We will definitely be back soon! Thanks White Cap!
**Restaurant Review: White Cap Restaurant**
I recently visited White Cap Restaurant, drawn in by its reputation and coastal setting, but the experience was more of a mixed bag than I expected. The location offers a picturesque view, which is easily the highlight of the visit, but the food and atmosphere left much to be desired.
Starting with the gumbo, I have to give credit where it's due. It was rich, flavorful, and easily the best thing I tried. The flavors were well-balanced, with just the right amount of spice and a nice blend of seafood and sausage. If the rest of the menu lived up to this dish, it would have been a completely different experience.
Unfortunately, the shrimp appetizer was a disappointment. It was essentially just thawed-out baby shrimp thrown into a bowl with no real effort to make them appetizing. They lacked seasoning, texture, and presentation. This seemed like a rushed, careless dish.
Moving on to the seafood platter, it was bland and uninspired. The fish, shrimp, and other seafood items tasted like they had been overcooked and under-seasoned, a far cry from the freshness and flavor you'd expect from a restaurant near the coast. Honestly, it reminded me of a lackluster meal from Red Lobster on an off day. The sides didn’t do much to elevate the plate, either, leaving the entire dish feeling flat and unmemorable.
As for dessert, the slice of key lime pie was underwhelming, both in portion size and taste. It was barely three bites, which might have been forgivable if those bites had been exceptional, but the pie was just okay—nothing that justified the portion or price.
The restaurant itself, despite the beautiful view, has an unfortunate odor that detracted from the experience. The smell was strong and unpleasant, reminiscent of sitting on a hot oyster bed at noon during low tide. It hung in the air throughout the meal and made it difficult to enjoy the food, especially when combined with the less-than-stellar dishes.
In summary, while the gumbo and the view are worth a stop, the rest of the menu falls short. There’s potential here, but unless improvements are made to the food and atmosphere, I can’t say I’d recommend White Cap Restaurant for anything beyond a quick bowl of gumbo and a glance at the scenery.
The food was amazing! It came out fast and was hot and fresh. Everyone was so friendly, it gave me a “home” vibe. I will definitely visit again!
We love the White Cap! Old school mom and pop seafood restaurant. Service is always friendly, Tracy went out of her way to make my daughter feel special:). The food is always delicious and the beer is always cold!! Great view of the beach from the dining room. We come whenever we are on the coast!
Went to dinner with my sister, niece and her husband while in Biloxi. The food was excellent and the portions plentiful. Great service. If you’re looking for great seafood this is the place.
Great experience! Seafood was really good and fresh. Service was good. Atmophere and people were really cool. We were able to get a window view and see the beach. Highly recommend and we will come back!
Ordered the shrimp cocktail and coleslaw for starters, the seafood platter with grilled scallops and shrimp for the main course, and the bread pudding with rum sauce for dessert. Although the shrimp cocktail was made with the smaller shrimp, was still quite fresh and the sauce was tasty. The coleslaw was also quite fresh with good flavor. Also, the bread pudding was nice and warm. Had great texture and excellent flavor with the rum sauce. The only issue I found was that the scallops and shrimp seemed a bit over cooked. So they were a bit rubbery when you but into them.
Service was amazing but as others stated the food was overcooked and the flavors were not there. May return to give them another try only because the service was helpful and they took the inedible food off the bill
