“I recently dined with friends at the Marina Cafe. All the meals were delicious. We ordered the Sampler Dessert. It included multiple desserts that were all yummy. Cody was our waiter. He provided excellent service and made excellent recommendations. I would highly recommend dinner at the Marina Cafe.”
“Great Italy like experience. Food is served hot and taste amazing. There is a large selection of food with a kids menu that has real food! Service is good and very family friendly.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Went to Fish-On in Destin today and had an awesome experience. The manager and chef both came out and introduced themselves, which you don’t see much anymore. We learned they’re one of only three restaurants in Destin serving locally caught seafood that’s truly fresh — never frozen — and you can taste the difference. The chef has been on Hell’s Kitchen twice, and you can tell he takes real pride in what he puts on the plate. Everything we ordered was excellent, and the prices were surprisingly fair for the quality you’re getting. If you’re in Destin and want something legit, this place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend.”
“The food was fabulous! Don’t forget to try the butter pecan cheesecake. It is to die for! Will definitely be back!”
“After hearing so many great things about this place, I finally made it out here to try it for myself. The atmosphere was beautiful and elegant. Brandon our server was amazing. The way Brandon described the specials and the menu items, he made it sound like it was going to be the best meal of my life. The food was spectacular so HUGE kudos to the chef. You are doing everything perfect. Atmosphere is 10 out of 10, service is a 100 out of 10 and the food was a 10 out of 10. I will definitely be back and thank you for the amazing dining experience.”

“We visited Fort Walton for the first time and I had already planned to visit this restaurant. I was so excited because of what I saw on the internet. It absolutely did not disappoint. We enjoyed the nachos & mixed drinks. The scavenger hunt was so much fun with my husband and 3 year old and the alligator show was so educational. We will definitely go back!! Oh, and we met “Henry” the 1 year old baby gator that we took a photo with!”

“My team and I have had the opportunity to dine at Dat Burrito Place multiple times over the past month, and each visit was a delightful experience from start to finish. I can confidently say that their commitment to friendly and prompt service is unmatched. From hearty burritos and flavorful rolled quesadillas to mouthwatering Mexican street corn, rich and savory birria, and light and crispy fish tacos, there's something to please every palate on their menu. Treat yourself and support local by giving Dat Burrito a try!”

“I think this was the best ice cream I've ever had. I sampled 2 and ordered 2 scoops of brown butter bourbon truffle ($8.08). Only a few inside tables but plenty for an evening in December. I noticed the candy/fudge options bur didn't purchase on this trip. 10/10 recommend!”

“We’ve been here several times during the evening hours. But our first time experience at lunch was a bit disappointing. My food came out but my wife’s calzone came much later. Our waiter was hardly checking on us for refills and never apologized or even tell us the food would come out late. (Plus no bread or their special oil.) I know it was lunch, but my highlight was the bread. I don’t know if we will come for lunch for a while, but we will give it a chance for evenings. I even wrote a note on the receipt and left my phone#. But as yet have I received a call.”
“Great place with really good food and amazing staff. This place never gets old and is a favorite to eat at when in Destin. I can always find something new on the menu to try. Ali and Liezl are great too! They can always point you in the right direction if you don't know what to order. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting.”

“The Back Porch did not disappoint one bit. We loved the atmosphere. We were seated out on the back porch right in front of the gulf and had a wonderful breeze blowing the whole time, which was great since we were visiting Florida in August. We got seafood and steak. The steak was amazing and tender. The grouper, crab bites and twice baked potatoes were delicious! We will definitely be back!”
“Tried a new place for breakfast this morning. Atmosphere was excellent. Not noisy at all. There are options for seating - outside, inside and a counter area. Very clean! Staff is very friendly and very polite. The kitchen was on point - food came out very quick and was delicious. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!!”
“We came in town for a junior golf tournament & made our way to Crab Trap. The sunset was amazing and our server Thayne was excellent. He took the time to put on a pair of gloves and show our son how to crack some crabs and get all the meat out of the 3 pound steamer. Great memories”
“My family and I had the best dinner. Appetizers, entrees and dessert were all absolutely amazing. Our server was on top of it and kept us very happy. 10/10 experience!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Definitely a 5 Star experience. Food is great in dining area and the SkyBar above is always fun and entertaining.”

“A hidden gem in Destin! A tiny spot with parking in the back. The atmosphere is quaint with maybe 7 tables inside and 4 tables outside. I’d imagine during peak season you’d need a reservation. Out bottle beer and champagne split was not ice cold, but that’s the only thing I’d complain about. I had the gyro platter, the meat was perfectly seasoned and served over a bed of rice. The salad was served on the same platter with a nice balsamic type dressing and plenty of feta cheese crumbles. My husband ordered the Swedish meatballs served on garlic mashed potatoes and the salad on the same platter. He did say some of meatballs were a touch overcooked but over all enjoyed the meal. We will definitely go back to try other dishes.”
“What I loved: flavors, ambiance, value for what we received. Friendliness of the staff.
Parking can be difficult, they do offer valet.
This was our first visit. Jerry was a fabulous server, all of the staff were super friendly and helpful. Jerry asked us uo front if we need a fast or leisurely pace for our dining experience, which I appreciated.
Definitely recommend making a reservation. This is a high end restaurant, do expect a to spend. I did feel we received great value for what we did spend, and it was so delicious. I honestly did not expect to enjoy the food as much as I did.
We visited the Saturday before Valentine's Day. We had a 5 pm reservation. We arrived about 10 minutes early, and were shown straight to our table. It was a half booth with a high back. Very comfortable. Jerry greeted us quickly, and as it was our first visit, explained a bit about the restaurant.
We selected from the 3 for $60 menu. I ordered the soup, French onion, as a 1st course. My husband the steakhouse salad. Portions were perfect and larger than expected. My husband liked his salad, feeling it was a great balance of lettuce to other greens (a common complaint of his at other restaurants). I love French onion soup, and this one was great. A lovely dark broth semi sweet onions, and wonderfully browned cheese.
I ordered the 6oz filet with shrimp as my second course, medium rare, with garlic mashed potatoes as a side. My husband opted for a 16 oz ribeye for an up-chrge, medium. He also had the garlic mp. The steaks are served on 500° plates, which kept them deliciously warm while we ate, I love that. The seasonings were delicious, and the shrimp quite large. Our mashed potatoes were very creamy and tasty. There was quite a bit more mashed potatoes than I was expecting.
Our final course was cheesecake. They offer two flavors on the 3 for $60 menu, so we each ordered one and then split them. They were again a perfect size, served with fresh berries and a drizzle of fruit sauce. I preferred the plain cheesecake flavor, my husband the chocolate. Both were creamy and delicious, and the berries just ripe.
We will definitely visit again, but it cannot be a frequent experience for us based on the price. Again, while I feel it was worth what we paid, it is higher than a frequent experience can be for us.
Thank you for making our night special!!”
“We had beyond amazing experience at the emerald coast location. We sat outside with our two little kids. Our server walked out (Chante) and right away started to engage with the kids and made them smile and feel so welcome. As a parent it was just heartfelt and amazing to have someone so kind to the kids. It made our night the kindness that was shown. If we are ever back in Destin we will be going back.”
“Debbie, Ashley and Juan (and I forget the other younger lady’s name) were AMAZING. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel welcome and were attentive to our needs throughout our meals. The service was prompt, friendly and shouts to Juan for the avocado chicken flatbread recommendation!!! It’s clear that the staff truly cares about providing a memorable experience for every guest. I’m sad to leave but they’ve truly left an imprint. From Florida back to NYC we go with smiles on our hearts ❤️”
“After a little confusion with Google and stated time of opening. The food was delicious! While there was only one wait staff -his name is Austin- he was amazing! He greeted us, got us our drinks, gave us recommendations and they were spot on! He also manned the bar and when I asked about the gift shop, he helped me there too. Thank you Austin!!”

“I stayed in condo 910 five nights starting November 10. The condo was perfect for our stay. It is spacious, very clean, adequate towels, an entire closet of coolers, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, and beach supplies etc. The kitchen is generously stocked with everything that one needs to make a delicious meal. The view of the ocean is amazing. This complex is one of the few places that has two heated pools, one cool pool, an indoor pool, and two hot tubs. Also a teki bar and little restaurant on site and both are seasonal. The owner of the condo is very helpful and reaches out to you to make sure your stay is everything one would expect. I would definitely stay here again.”
“Mariah was the best all servers should be so talented. She made our day so fun. They call the wind. If you see this Mariah watch for Brad. Food was good also we have gone to PJ for years when in Destin always good. Shout put to Ed.”

“We stayed in Destin for a week and stumbled upon this place. It’s a little rough from the outside - looks like it’s in a mobile home trailer - but don’t let that fool you. The food and service were both excellent. My daughter insisted we come back and eat at Thai Smile our last night in town. We are vegetarians and they were very polite, informative and accommodating, and remembered us when we came back. Highly recommend.”
“Not bad pizza overall. Unfortunately they force you to get three toppings, or if you want less you still pay for three…? Most bizarre was the fact that they actually consider the mozzarella or “other cheese” as one of the three toppings??? That’s not NY, might be central FLA, which is fine. As the review started, not bad pizza but floppy especially if you order more than a topping. “Three toppings” intention actually means in ADDITION to the cheese. 12” for $22 is crazy & the gimmick of an 18” for $27 clarifies the gimmick. Order the pizza to be cooked “well done” & hopefully that should help with floppiness without burning. Enough of the pizza dissection. The small bar portion is cozy & half price HH is great! Will be back for HH, not certain for grub.”
“Crumbl makes it simple to order through the app and the cookies are always fresh, warm and delicious. The service was fast, the packaging was perfect and the cookies tasted amazing. This location really goes above and beyond to make customers feel valued and I will definitely be back.”
“This place is amazing ! I tried the White Cranberry Sangria! Amazing ! We also did 2 flights with multiple beers! All great! The pretzel amazing as well! If you are ever in Destin a must do! Not easy located but worth searching for!!! You will not be disappointed!”

“SLOANE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING . She remembers us from a previous visit and remembered what we ordered and our names . I think we will make this our spot when we are in town . Food of choice was the menu item on dinner where you can pick four sides absolutely amazing. Get the collards Mac and cheese and the black eye peas succotash . ASK FOR SLOANE SHE IS THE TRUTH ! Hope you can see this SLOANE !”
“Hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had! We sat at the bar and were lucky enough to be taken care of by Ricky and Sheyla, both of whom were so warm, friendly, and genuinely accommodating. They made us feel right at home from the moment we sat down. I don’t personally drink, and they didn’t make it awkward or treat it like a hassle at all. Instead, they brought out an ice-cold Heineken 0.0, poured it into a chilled mug, and even added a lime wedge without me asking. It was such a thoughtful touch that made me feel included and taken care of. Ricky and Sheyla also gave us amazing food recommendations. I ordered the mahi mahi tacos with charro beans, and let me just say, I’m still thinking about those beans. They were loaded with tender pieces of brisket that added such depth of flavor. The tacos came topped with a fresh mango pineapple salsa that had actual chunks of pineapple and mango, so juicy, sweet, and perfectly balanced with the fish. The queso was also super fresh and flavorful, and they made sure our chips were always topped off. The attention to detail really made the whole experience feel elevated without being pretentious. On top of all that, they took the time to chat with us and even gave us some awesome local recommendations for things to do after dinner. It’s rare to find staff who are not only great at their jobs but also so down-to-earth and genuinely kind. Highly recommend sitting at the bar if you can, Ricky and Sheyla are a dream team! We’ll definitely be coming back the next time we’re in town. An all-around fantastic vibe, incredible service, and delicious food!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As an event planner across the Emerald Coast, I’ve had the pleasure of working with April and Bonne’ Vie Specialty for years … and she never disappoints! ✨ April truly brings magic to everything she touches. Her creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail shine through in every dessert she creates. Her cakes, cookies, and sweet treats are not only stunning to look at but absolutely delicious! Our clients and guests always rave about them. April’s talent is such a gift to our community, and I can’t recommend her enough!”

“We just had dinner at Dewey Destin’s and it was amazing. We just did appetizers but holy moly! I had the medium heat peel and eat shrimp, we had the best hush puppies I’ve ever had, and grit cakes. I believe Jenn was our server and she was so very helpful and sweet. The Dock Rocker cocktail was delicious! Glad after 5 years of coming to the area we tried this place! Highly recommend!”
“Joined in on a hot hatha yoga sesh with Ashley. The drop in rate was $20, mat, props and water provided. Ashley is really fun to talk to. Her class was the perfect blend of breath work and yoga poses. I am advanced in my practice and would recommend this class to all levels from beginner to expert. The vibes were on point and Ashley was very welcoming and knowledgeable. I will be back!”
“Our Valentines Day dinner was amazing!!”
“I typically wouldn’t leave a review for a chain restaurant, but I had to shoutout the man working today around lunch. I wish my boyfriend and I got his name! I believe he was the manager on shift, and he was so charismatic and nice. He deserves all the raises in the world and I hope his pillow is cold on both sides. 🫶🏻”
“This was by far the BEST service I’ve ever had at Smoothie King!!! Didn’t get his name but he took my order with such detail to ensure my smoothie was right. Another customer came in to get her daughter’s online order corrected. He remade the order and then revised it at the customer’s last minute request. Awesome service from this young man. Great job!!!”
“Came in here to purchase a Florida mug. My husband and I are here on honeymoon. Extremely welcoming and friendly staff. I did not feel rushed as I do in many Starbucks locations. Clean and aesthetically Florida vibes! Love the modern architecture and palm trees. Starbucks, this is one of your best stores!”
“Our Valentines Day dinner was amazing!!”
“A locals take... During off season this place is a great place. For a warm chill atmosphere. Peak season is entirely another environment. Expect college girls but still a good time. As a local, off season is more my season, but if you're looking for a good time come here. It's real a party spot with awesome bartenders.”
“We ate at Captain Dave’s Friday night.The atmosphere is relaxed and loved the view.Our server was wonderful,Robyn B.,The food was great ,would definitely go again.”

“We recently had the pleasure of enjoying the food for an event catered by Artistic Catering. The food was just amazing! Our favorite was the shrimp & grits, but everything absolutely fantastic. Even the tablescape & serving platters looked awesome. The staff was knowledgeable, professional while the owners, Tommy & Kylie were extremely hospitable & friendly. You could tell they take pride in their craft. ♥ Our whole party loved them. I just wished they were in Orlando! ☺ We would definitely recommend them for your next party or event.”

“Pizza was pretty bland and tasted like the grease but the BBQ wings were pretty good. Didn’t love the flimsy paper plate either but overall it was okay love the theme but just wish our pizza was a little better. They offer military discount of 15% and I thank them for their support. We will try again maybe a different kind of pizza next time.”
“We come to Destin every year with a large group (about 20) and like to have food brought to the house so we don't take over the restaurant. We tried Pepper's this year and everyone loved it, even our pickiest eaters. The staff was kind and delivery was on time. We will definitely order from them again next year.”
“We visited Fort Walton for the first time and I had already planned to visit this restaurant. I was so excited because of what I saw on the internet. It absolutely did not disappoint. We enjoyed the nachos & mixed drinks. The scavenger hunt was so much fun with my husband and 3 year old and the alligator show was so educational. We will definitely go back!! Oh, and we met “Henry” the 1 year old baby gator that we took a photo with!”
