41 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Fort Walton Beach

“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!!“

“Aahhhmazzinggg!!!! food smoked brisket tacos… the smoke is there for sure not just a hint… the carnitas tacos had great flavor as well the slaw that came with them was so tasty just enough vinegar to balance the richness of the meats… bonus got a complementary mango paleta… y’all definitely worth it“

“I went their for the first time today and got a veggie sandwich. It was delicious and huge! The house made ranch was super yummy. And the lady at the front was very sweet. Will definitely be returning!“

“My family and I LOVED Stewby’s! Definitely our favorite restaurant so far on our vacation! My husband got shrimp, I got the fried grouper, and our three kids all got the chicken fingers. Everything was amazing! Best fries anywhere! Also amazing desserts - banana pudding and key lime pie are delicious!! Amazing service from Audrey and the entire team! Highly recommend! 🫶🏽🤍“

“Such good food! And great customer service 🤍“

“The service was excellent. I had the pulled pork sandwich with 2 sides and my friend had jerk chicken with black beans....all delicious.“

“I just recently moved here from Chicago and this place nailed it with an authentic Italian Beef! I was skeptical but this is it! I’ll be back…. ALOT!“

“Food is delicious! Very convenient!“

“Mother Earth's cafe is an absolute gem! From the retro ambiance to the friendly service, everything about this place feels welcoming. I ordered the Philly cheese steak omelet, and it was perfect with fluffy pancakes, flavorful hash browns , and eggs cooked just right. Their coffee was rich, and the refills were constant. Portions were generous, the food was fresh, and the prices were fair. I’ll definitely be back at this Cafe. It is a must visit!“

“We absolutely loveee this place!! Hands down favorite place in this area. Our group comes here every single day of our yearly vacation in Ft. Walton. Ryan and Cole are the best! We haven’t had one drink or food that we haven’t loved. A must do in Ft. Walton!!“

“New owners and the food is great! The server was very good. I ate there 2 times this week.“

“When we visited, they were out of açai, so they offered to make the base with pitaya instead. Honestly, I love the pitaya bowls even more than the açai, both are fantastic, but I wish they offered pitaya as a regular option. This place is a family tradition every time we come to Destin; we make it a point to stop. Açai so good , does the ever make it to the pic! Lol“

“Great owner, bartenders, and business“

“The absolute best staff! They took very good care of us. Neat atmosphere, food was good!“

“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“

“This place is Amazing! Live music, super friendly and kind staff, { I would tell you how kind my waitress was, but I wouldnt want anyone to try to take advantage of her) I regret that I didnt have proper tip money, but i will make it up to her. There is a beach, cornhole, i think horseshoes, it is child and dog friendly. They even brought ny Stanley his own bouwl. Next review will have photos, Go there as soon as you can. You wont be dissapointed,“

“I love this place! First Korean restaurant I ever ate at (back in 2003ish), and been going back ever since. I liked a Korean restaurant in Germany too, but no other place I've tried (about 20 others) has compared. The owner always remembers me, my family, and my friends. We don't even need a menu, she knows what food and drinks we want and lets us know if there's something special to try that day, like the seaweed soup.“

“Best Thai in panhandle! Food and service is incredible!!!!!!!“

“We were there a month ago on vacation, this place has the best burritos I’ve ever eaten and they are huge you definitely get your moneys worth from here, and the people who run this place are really cool and very friendly we will be back on our next vacation.“

“Such a cute place, amazing food and service. Definitely one of our favorites!“

“Love their coffees ☕️, they are set up near by the library, plenty of sitting outdoor and the only issue you will encounter is parking but other than that easy to find and awesome coffee. Friendly staff, I highly recommend 👌 this shop.“

“Incredible lunch special, where you actually get your moneys worth! The chicken was amazingly flavorful, steamed cabbage didn’t need anything added to it, and the red beans and rice was stacked like a mountain! 10/10 recommend!“

“Amazing Tex mex . Definitely worth it ! Pineapple salsa is to die for !“

“Best food in Fort walton bch by far well worth the price I love the Place !“

“We enjoyed visiting and drinking a cold brew at Props! The atmosphere was laidback, fun, clean with a great beer 🍻 selection! My favorite is the Blueberry and I was happy to enjoy a pumpkin beer as well! A flight is also available if you want to try out their beers! Kyle served us and was friendly and knowledgeable about the beers! We saw a few people come with their dogs, and the Props cats are a nice addition!“

“We had the raw oysters, mussels, the house salad was so good. My father had the pineapple shrimp, my friend had the seafood medley and I had the steamed lobster tails with potatoes and asparagus. Everything was fantastic, cooked to perfection and just so yummy. The staff was super, friendly and fun! Will definitely go back!“

“always nifty stuff going on, there. I am quite partial to the BBQ blues pizza they serve. excellent bar service from Rowan and Tracy. I thoroughly enjoy the owner Ian's large selection of whiskey and bourbon. I recommend stopping in and giving it a go.“

“Girls trip 2025! First time there and it was our favorite of the trip! Whitney, our waitress was absolutely the best! Sitting on the patio overlooking the water was the cherry on top! I had the blackened redfish with crawfish topping and it was so delicious! Also the pimento shrimp dip and the fried green tomatoes were delish!!! I even got 2 tees from the shop! Loved it and will definitely return! ❤️“

“Uh yeah these are Absofruitley some of the best açaí bowls I’ve had. We go very frequently and the service is friendly, fast and fresh! The outdoor seating area is cool too and they offer lids to take home in case the bowl is leftover. The portions are big!“

“This place should have 10 stars solid! Even on their worst day the food is amazing and the staff is friendly as all get out! Even when they are so packed in there, they are sweet and patient. There is a reason why people wait to get into this place. I’m proud to call it my favorite happy place in FWB!“

“I was just visiting over the holidays and had a wonderful experience at this place with my family. The service was spectacular. The lady who helped us went above to explain the flavors to us and we were very satisfied! Would recommend this place and will be returning!“

“Amazing, very delicious food“

“Its our favorite off-beach place to be when we are in town! The staff is always wonderful here!! If you enjoy the best ice cream in town & a fun putt putt course then this is your place!! ⛳️🍦“

“in there about 50 times since they've been open and I have never had one problem. Correction yes they mistakenly brought me a double order of wings once and did not charge me and as a former restaurant owner of over 28 years I know what to look for. Quality service and cleanliness was acceptable.They exceeded my expectations.“

“This was our first time and everything was amazing! The food was delicious! We had the wings, empanadas, and hummus for appetizers! We also had the lasagna, a burger, and the GI Jade special pizza! All of the ingredients tasted super fresh! We loved the outdoor seating atmosphere! Our server was CJ and he was a pleasure! So fast and accurate with our orders and so friendly! We loved getting to listen to the live band Paradise Vale as well! 100% recommend!“

“The Juicy Lucy burger is amazing! the onion rings have such a great flavor! best Burger i have had in a long time!!“

“Crab crusted grouper was excellent. Their fries are absolutely amazing. Pow pow shrimp appetizer was good. On the other hand, Seafood Alfredo came out cold, needs more salt or seasoning. Not a fan of the grilled shrimp tacos, also came out cold and tortillas were rubbery. One of the water cups was dirty on the inside and waitress brought a new cup right away. Waitress was very attentive. Coming back but will only order the food we tried and enjoyed.“

“Fantastic! Great food, friendly servers, beautiful sunset and an outstanding mix of live entertainment ! We love playing and partying there“

“🦀What a delightful surprise! We had the best snow crab, the best beverages, and overall the best service we have had in a long time! Philip, the server, was outstanding!! Not only did he go over and beyond, he was thoughtful, personable, and super-friendly. We will be back and hope that he will be our server again. Thank you, Phillip!“

“the best place on the planet for food, atmosphere and a drink with friends. definitely recommend and would love to return one day!“
