Fairhope diner named Alabama’s best by mashed based on Food Network’s Guy Fieri favorites

Fairhope-based restaurant Sunset Pointe received national recognition this week when the popular online foodie publication mashed named this restaurant one of America’s best diners.

Based on 40 seasons and 1,250 restaurants reviewed on Guy Fieri’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, mashed named their favorite diners from each state. So let’s head to Flavortown and get a taste of what this diner in Fairhope has to offer.

What did mashed say?

Mashed has high praise for this Fairhope-based diner. Here’s an excerpt of the story. 

“Nestled on the coast of Southwestern Alabama is the small town of Fairhope, Alabama. There you’ll find waterfront restaurant Sunset Pointe, run by a man known as “Panini Pete” who brought in Guy Fieri not to taste his sandwiches, but his fresh and delicious seafood creations – and we can’t help but agree with hat decision. Relax in the casual atmosphere, gaze out at the ocean view, and be sure to check out the Eastern Shore Bouillabaisse, loaded with gulf coast shrimp, mussels, and leeks; and the Gulf Snapper Throats bathed in garlic butter. We promise, you won’t find better seafood in the entire state.”
