We came in to eat with our family (we are local) while it is a slower time of the year. We were seated immediately and were welcomed by Austin. He was a great server. He always made sure we had what we needed. He did a little Forrest Gump trivia with us, which was fun! Our drinks were always full! Austin was great!

Great spot. We stopped for lunch and shared the 16 once Ribeye steak with grilled shrimp. It was plenty to share for lunch. The steak was done to perfection, as was the shrimp. Our waitress was amazing and gave me the Forest Gump triva test! I did better than I thought I would.

Service was good. We went at 5pm on a Saturday and it was empty. The food was average.

Vegetarian options: All they had was a subpar salad. It looked like they emptied a cheap bagged salad intimate my plate and charged $15 for it.

Don't waste your money and time here. I would consider this the worst Bubba Gump in the world. Restaurant was very emty but it took them more than 20 mins to assist us. Don't even bother waiting for someone to show you to your table. Managers are absolutely useless. A couple of people was also mad at the service that day. I would very much understand the slow service if it was a full house or even half full but it wasn't. Severely understaffed. If you can't serve 10 people properly just close shop for the day, instead of causing inconvenience and dissatisfaction. What and absolute shame.

I can't say on the food other than they have options for gluten-free food, which is a plus. I went to purchase merchandise, and the staff was extremely friendly.

We have been going to Bubba Gumps for the last five years. Got into Destin this afternoon. Decided to go for dinner. Host said twenty minutes or you can order at the bar . Bartender refuses to service because of the fifteen minute wait lol I never heard of that. Other couple refused to get a drink because they did not want to rip him. What a rude asshat.

The customer service was spectacular but I didn't enjoy my food. I got the fish and chips. It was more or less my taste buds because I just don't like fish that taste real fishy. The mix drinks was watered down. I didn't taste any alcohol at all.

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu.
