21 Best Seafood Restaurants in Fort Walton Beach

“This was some of the best seafood we had on our trip! Some of our favorites were the popcorn shrimp, fried fish of the day (mahi), seasonal green beans, and the hush puppies! The banana pudding was a great dessert as well. We went around 4pm and only had a 15 min. wait to order food and maybe another 10 min. before it was ready. The indoor seats were filled up so we sat in the nice outdoor patio area with picnic tables and umbrellas. Super friendly employees! Would definitely recommend!“

“Thanks Krystal for awesome drinks and service! One of our new favorites in Destin!“

“Loved the atmosphere and the staff was very friendly. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were great! We ordered a couple drinks that were amazing! We ordered a few apps as well. The crab dip was delicious, the calamari did not disappoint, but the shrimp cocktail-cold was very dry. I wound up throwing half my shrimp away. Very disappointed in that. We ordered a key lime pie for dessert, and it was to die for! It was amazing! Overall, would definitely come back.“

“Great food, service and atmosphere . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would have bought a shirt because I loved my experience but they were kinda pricey. I will definitely visit again on my next trip to the area.“

“Consistently good service and great food. I’m a picky eater and they always always cook my food the way I like it. Prices are right on par for the area. I love this place.“

“we split the nachos which were good, i would say overpriced the amount you receive and we also got the grouper sandwich and we substituted the sauce for their cilantro ranch which is amazing. We havnt done their breakfast bec 23$ a person for a breakfast buffet is out pricing themselves. We did try their small pepperoni pizza for room service last night it was ok.“

“Pretty good food, little pricey, but good food.“

“We sat at the patio table. The Aquarium next to this restaurant has huge fence that blocks view of beach from the patio that annoyed a little but still we could see the ocean in front. Ultimate Bloody Mary had 3 large shrimps, peppachini, pickled green beans and 3 olives.“

“We had dinner there last night and as always it was so good. I honestly can’t believe that some people drive right by to go to the more touristy places. We live about 75 miles from Ft. Walton Beach and this has been our go to place since the mid 80’s. Best gumbo I have ever had. Give this place a try. You won’t be disappointed ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“If I could give a higher rating I would. Our server, Phillip went above and beyond to correct our order. He was super nice, funny, and made sure we had everything we needed and more. I hope a manager reads this and gives Phillip some credit, (and a raise) because he did AWESOME.“

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

“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!“

“We stopped here Saturday when we first got into town! Best food and best margaritas we have had in a long while. it was so good we came back Friday before we left. same experience. Everyone was so friendly and laughed and talked with us. We had a great time! They even had a gallon Margarita to go. YUM“

“Here from tx and my husband took me to dinner here. The service, food and atmosphere was top notch for a small restaurant. I am allergic to shell fish and they took very good care of me. 10 stars for me but rating goes only to 5“

“We just visited here last night and loved the beautiful view and great food. Our waitress was nice and quick to refill our drinks. Only complaint I have is that it was hot in the restaurant (it doesn’t have ac) but that’s expected in Florida. Husband didn’t care for his lobster tacos he said they were salty but I really enjoyed my chicken tacos. Highly recommend and will be back when in town again! They also have a gluten free menu you just have to ask!“

“The team work is excellent Charmaine working drive thru did an great job ! The food quality was good and made jn a reasonable time 10/10 service highly recommended..“
