Reviews for Gormley's on the river | Modern cuisine in historic downtown in Apalachicola, FL

THIS LISTING IS ERRONEOUS. Gormley's at the River is a new restaurant Chef Brett and Fayah Gormley plan to open later this year... at the former location of Caroline's just a few blocks away. Stay tuned! ???????????????????? The photos in this listing --other than the one of a construction site showing the future restaurant's riverfront location under reconstruction -- show thebar at the Gibson Inn, the former location of Gormley's at the Gibson. It closed last year after new owners took over the innand, by the way, modified its historic interior significantly, including painting some of that beautiful 100+ year old blackcypress wood glossy white. ???? The new owners have some sort of high-end restaurant in there but I don't patronize it; theybrought in their own chef and other staff from out of town rather than keeping it local. I prefer to support restaurants ownedand operated by my friends and neighbors. Read more

Great atmosphere and good food

Love this place. Great little restaurant, with unique dishes. Service was beyond excellent.

The salads were lackluster though with well written descriptions that made them hard to pass by...kudos to the menu editor! The... apps and entrees were all fantastic! The grouper was fabulous and the chowder was not to be missed. Oysters Rockefeller werefantastic once the stale crackers had been swapped out. Great meal though pricey. Read more

First time dining at Gormley's but it won't be our last. The atmosphere, service, and food were wonderful. Our waitress,... Kimberly, was great. She was knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive. I had the grouper and my husband had the tuna.Delicious! Read more
