“Everyone was so welcoming and sweet from the door. Very calm and peaceful atmosphere. But I will say my server Cheyenne , really made the experience what it was! She was so wonderful, down to earth, attentive and accommodating. Cheyenne went above and beyond on everything to make sure I enjoyed everything and was taken care of properly. I’ll most definitely be back ! And I’ll be asking for Mrs. Cheyenne! <3“

“Tried this Waffle House for the first time and had the best Waffle House experience ever. Ordered eggs 🍳 , bacon 🥓, and grits for dinner along with biscuits. My meal was cooked to perfection and my server was prompt and courteous. The cook walked up and asked me how my meal was. I was very pleased with my meal and service. Considering how much it costs to eat out these days, the price was very reasonable. I’ll come back again.“

“My coworkers and I come here once a week for lunch. We all absolutely love Taco Tuesday. If you haven't tried them, you definitely should“

“Delicious food and the best service every time!“

“Arrived at 10:05 for lunch because breakfast ended at 10:00. One server took our drink order and said our server would be taking our order shortly. 10 minutes later she took our order. Meanwhile over the next 30 minutes several customers arrived and were served drinks and meals. Our server returned a couple of times with excuses why our food wasn't ready. After waiting patiently for 1 hour we got up and left. No one approached us to ask why we were leaving. This was our first visit to Big Mamas and will not be returning.“

“Awesome customer service! We love Shelton! Recommend the anti pasta egg rolls!“

“We food breakfast while staying at the hotel. Food was good not great but good, but expected more from service. Coffee arrived way before food and one was cold. The answer was we just press a button and the machine makes it so what do you want to do? You want in re made or something else to drink? I know I don't want cold coffee unless I order a cold brew. Next we had our coffees. There was sugar yet nothing to stir. When someone finally noticed us, asked for something to stir our coffees. They brought 1 spoon. Guess sharing is in style. We do have to come back since we payed already for breakfast for our stay. Not sure if id do it again next time.
Edit. The rest of the days we sat closer to the bar and we got Felix as waiter. He's just wonderful, no issues at all no cold coffee or anything. Still won't give 5 cos of our server on the first day. Big huge shout out to Felix.“

“Ive always dining at Newks Eatery and never been disappointed. They have an excellent line of choices and its always fresh, reasonably priced, and served in very short order. The outdoor dining .makes you feel like you are dining in Paris or at an Italian restaurant on the Sicilian coast. We'll done, Newks“

“End of a GREAT limited era. After Hurricane Michael, Tyndall's dining facility welcomed civilians working on base. The food was good, salad bar fantastic and more importantly the staff was friendly, respectful and made you feel welcomed. Because of these factors, Tyndall's dining facility became our go to lunch location. After working for the USAF 35+ years, it was good to be back in a government controlled eating location were quality outweighed price. Well this era has apparently ended and non-TDY civilians are no longer allowed to dine. I would like to say THANKS to the employees and hope civilians are welcomed again some day.“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“I currently work for Charlie and Linda Coram and I ate at Coram's way before I ever got a job w them. I was hired for the new restaurant on 15th street which only recently opened in October 2023. it has some major differences from the old store but given the chance we can prove how great we can be. the owners and staff put their heart and soul into making things great and better when not up to par. sometimes opening a new place is a lot of trial and error and figuring out the staff that fits but when things are right the food is amazing. the prices are no more than similar restaurants on most items and still cheaper than buying your own food and then having to cook it. we already have lunch specials and new dinner specials but in the next week more changes will be made and more improvements to the food, staff and anything else anyone has complained about. Linda and Charlie take their restaurant as serious as possible and they listen or read every complaint and try to fix it. so I'm asking as an employee and a customer of this great restaurant for y'all to give it one more try before saying u won't go back. remember nothing is easy on this life and especially opening a restaurant. but I truly have faith in the upcoming approvements that will make everyone happy. and please don't hesitate to let us know what we have done wrong so we can make it better. please follow for close updates“

“Good service, good food!!“

“Relaxing, inviting, exceptional service, delicious food. 💯“

“Stopped by the Panama City Applebee's yesterday while I was working out of town, and even though the building was packed I received friendly service. The food did take a little longer to come out but with as busy as they were it's understandable. My waitress made sure to communicate with me so there were never any issues. I will visit again when I'm back in the area.“

“My wife and I celebrated our 56th anniversary lunch at HOH 3/16/2026. It was our first meal there and it was excellent. We ordered from the dinner menu. The food was very very good and the service was great. We ate in the bar section and Mary was the bartender and waitress. She was friendly and professional. She got busy at the bar but she never neglected our table. Couldn't ask for better food and service!“

“We just left and had an absolutely amazing experience. Our server was very nice and patient. She did a wonderful job serving all 12 of us! Food was amazing. Service was amazing! Couldn’t ask for more thank you for a great experience!!!“

“great place to eat, a couple of weeks ago yall was playing 60s and 70s oldies music, yall should keep playing that kind of music, chicken gizzards and your salads are awesome“

“I came in just looking for lunch and left with a full-on spiritual experience.

First of all—fried ribs?! I genuinely thought my family was the only group of people out here frying ribs like that, so imagine my excitement. And let me tell you… they did NOT disappoint. Crispy, flavorful, and cooked with the kind of love you can taste.

The mac & cheese, collard greens, and rice & gravy? My food didn’t just taste good—it touched my spirit. Like sit-back-for-a-second-and-process-your-life kind of good.

And then… the grape Kool-Aid. Listen. I don’t know who back there decided to unlock childhood memories, but that first sip took me straight back to a part of my life I forgot even existed.

If you’re looking for fancy, this ain’t it. But if you’re looking for real, comforting, soul-hugging food that feels like home—you need to be here.

10/10. I will absolutely be back.“

“The food was good. I don’t give 5 unless it’s great. Our waitress was really sweet and had way too many tables. She worked hard but it took a long time to get anything. I don’t blame her, she just had too many people to serve.
My big negative, the restroom had an overwhelming urine smell!“

“Best cheeseburger I have ever gotten at an establishment of this nature. Cooked to perfection. The juice from the patty, tomatoes, onions, condiments, and bacon all collided perfectly.“

“Always great food and great people. Love Mrs ultra she’s great“

“This visit was extremely special and I am grateful for the amazing staff they are very friendly and done a magnificent job. Compliments to the managers and the staff team and crew. The food was amazingly delicious. And the atmosphere was so awesome. For the first time I had my meal paid for my someone I didn’t even know I a special day to me, celebrating Father’s Day and my daughter who was born a month ago today. Thank you to Po Folk for being a part of Bay county for so long, this location will always have me and my family coming back time and time again.“

“Waitress could have been better. She was very cold, not friendly at all.“

“Super nice and friendly and good food“

“It's our third day of Flapjacks in a row. The service was spot on all three days. The waitress was attentive and kept our drinks full. We had good food. There is plenty of parking. I remember the peanut butter waffle being more peanut buttery but it was a good waffle just lacked the PB flavor.“

“This past Saturday October 18th I was part of a wedding at the conservation park. Sonny's BBQ handled the food for this event. They sent two of the best staff to serve the food for this wedding Savanna and Caitlin. These two ladies went above and beyond. Not only did they set up their area beautifully and move the guest line at a quick pace when it was time to eat. They also saw us struggling with a time deadline and wind not cooperating with our decorations they jumped right in and helped us get the last minute things done- Even held down the reception area so all of us could walk and see the wedding ceremony a short walk across the park. I hope they see this and know that we greatly appreciate the extra things you did to help their day be so beautiful <3“

“Enzo’s has delicious pizza! I spoke to the sweetest woman on the phone and she really helped out with some great suggestions as we were in town looking for some delicious pizza. Their deep dish is perfect and I was shocked my picky eater who is 9 actually enjoyed it! My hubby and I chose the double decker with veggies & sausage and it was 👌 the jalapeno poppers were so good too!! Def check this place out they have very good prices as well. Very cute spot they have.“

“Went here to take my Fiancé on a date & it was very good. I've been here before & it was really good then as well. Staff told us it was about a 10-15 minute wait & would text me when our table was ready. When it was we were seated & the waiter took our drink, appetizer, & entree orders. Took a minute to receive our drinks but received a loaf of bread following. My Fiancé then acquired the side that goes to her entree… We then received our dinner but not our appetizer. I told our waiter approximately 3-5 times that we were still waiting for it. We received it after eating our meals & bread all while sipping on multiple drinks… He eventually brought it out & apologized & said that the restaurant was going to cover it. He was professional & friendly. All the food & drinks were superb & the atmosphere with the dim lights was amazing. Staff were friendly, helpful, & presentable. A friend of ours works here as well as another friend who I don't believe works here anymore. The restaurant seemed clean. They do have a bar.“

“Food was very good , clean tables“

“Hands down! This was by far the best fast food I’ve had in a very long time! THE STAFF. WAS SENSATIONAL and not to mention the place was SPOTLESS! My husband and I passed by the restaurant in Lynn Haven and he said let’s go back and try Wayback so we turned around and I’m so glad we did! Everything was fresh and delicious and did I mention the staff? We were so impressed with those guys. STELLAR SERVICE from the second we walked in the door. This will definitely be our spot !“

“😀Julia was an exceptionally server. My husband and I constantly go out to eat dinner and she is one of the best server we have ever encountered. She keeps coming to check on us to see if we like the food or needed anything. She was very professional and funny at the same time. We hope to see her again next time we visit.“

“Iexcellent service“

“Quality food and great price. We can always rely on getting a delicious meal at our local chilis. We’ve ordered both lunch and dinner here. Most often we order Togo and it’s always hot and freshly made. Wait staff are always polite and well trained.“

“Went this afternoon for lunch the guy running the register was doing drive thru and dine in. Didn't catch his name but he did answer exceptional job never complained once and was super friendly! I was there between 2 and 3 pm if anyone knows who he is“
