“We visited last summer, and stumbled on it by chance. We had a great time and ended up visiting multiple times during our vacay. Before we left the bartender knew my drink order! Friday nights get busy due to the military crowd, but we were there during peak season and had the best time. Cold drinks, not over priced, and not a tourist trap. We love the duck“

“Our daughter got married there this past weekend April 26th, 2025. It was an amazing place for venue and food!!! The GM John is the absolute best to work with even if he’s a little on the short side (had to Boss Man)🤣🤣. He made the process so smooth and stress free! Couldn’t recommend it more. Thanks for everything and will be sure to stop again if back in the area!!“

Sammy's on the Island Bar
1224 Santa Rosa Blvd, Fort Walton Beach

“I visited Sammy's in Fort Walton just last night (6-17-24) and it was a blast. This is the first time i had ever been in this type of establishment and it exceeded my expectations. The service was amazing, the drinks werent very expensive and all the ladies were great on stage. It was a little slow when we got there around 10pm but it definitely picked up soon after that. Especially when Gabby got there and got on stage, her set was amazing and she was by far my favorite. So if you are in or around the area, be sure and stop in and ask for Gabrielle, you definitely wont be disappointed.“
