Guests and locals alike know that The Grand Hotel serves nothing but delicious and delectable cuisine at all of their seven Fairhope restaurants, coffee shops and lounges. Taste of Mobile proved just that earlier this month when the hotel received two of their top accolades.

Saltwater Grill, which boasts a uniquely upbeat and casual environment, serves the freshest local seafood in creative and inspiring dishes. Two of their acclaimed dishes took home the titles of "Best Seafood" and "Best Pasta Dish" from the legendary event.

The "Best Seafood" award was won with Saltwater's signature lump crab cakes. Made with fresh local crab, these famous crab cakes are known for the succulent blend of flavors and textures. The "Best Pasta Dish" award also took home a title with another seafood creation. The Jubilee Seafood Pasta, which is overflowing with an array of scrumptious seafood, is known around the city for its decadence and delight.

"We are extremely proud of the entire staff at Saltwater Grill," boasts Michael Herzog, Director of Food & Beverage at Grand Hotel Marriott Resort. "We already knew that our approach to food was impeccable, but the recognition from such a regarded event just proved us right."
