Don't let the line out the door deture you cause it's well worth the wait!! And you get food quickly after ordering. Will always stop her when we're in Florida.“

“This is our go to place for lunch. Great food, location, and right on the water. We grab lunch and let the kids play in the sand. Beer prices are insane at $8 a can but somewhat expected for the location. Recommend for families as they have large seating areas and small play area for them. Bring some sand toys.Parking: Can be full at prime lunch times.“

“Oh my gosh!!! To die for!! I had the shrimp roll, my husband had the steamed shrimp and we also had the ceviche (so fresh and yummy).

Can't wait to go back with friends and family!!“

She gave the best suggestions and was attentive even though she was busy. The fish tacos were great the hush puppies and the seafood combo my wife got was delicious.

“Such an amazing experience. Chef David and Perry make the place outstanding! You’re served early 1900 plates and silverware and surrounded by beautiful paintings. They have so much experience in fine dining and history around the states. You have to be there!! This is the place on the whole panhandle side to go to and I’m not the type to over exaggerate. Come here if you want to impress your family or friends. This is the place?“

“The pool is very nice and the rocks with water flowing down is a good feature. The music is also a good vibe. The rooms are made up well and has everything you need. There was a volleyball tournament while we were at the resort and the easy access to the beach made it easy for my family to watch it.“

“I really enjoyed this place, it really was great, I loved the setting and the wonderful black art displayed. The food was 10/10. Our server Bird was so polite and attentive, he made the experience even better. The SALAD Was AMAZING. I really enjoyed the crab legs you really get a lot for your money. It was worth every penny. Definitely will return.“

“Juno's Sushi-Steak and Seafood is a local restaurant in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. It is located directly across Uptown Station. They offer Korean BBQ, Japanese influenced dishes and more. My visit was like two years ago, so I want to go back to have a more up to date experience. I remember the food being good and pretty expensive. However, there went any other Korean BBQ spots around at the time I visited. I think Juno's is a great spot for a date. It's calm inside and there is a lot of seating for parties of many sizes. The service was nice! I think I chat with Juno himself and he is a vibrant and hardworking boss!“

“Such a kind reception when we arrived. They could not have been nicer, greeter, waitress, owner. Checked on us a couple times, good old fashion hospitality. Chicken Alfredo was absolutely Divine. Twig has the liver, onions and peppers in a merlot sauce. It was a perfect dinner for our 50th year of marriage to a great guy!“

“I got the chimichanga with grilled chicken and it was the best chimichanga I have ever had! The people are super friendly and accommodating without “hovering”. BONUS: There was live music and we really enjoyed that while we ate. Thank you for a wonderful evening! We will be back!“

“Great food and great service! This visit we ordered the special of day, Mahi and Shrimp with fresh veggies, some gumbo and Rick's famous nuggets. Everything was fantastic! As a Certified Master Chef, I highly recommend you pay a visit to Rick's. The food is prepared and cooked with TLC. Again... Great food and great service!“

“I have been waiting to eat at the this restaurant. I thought it would never open. Well, it was worth the wait. Upon entering the restaurant, I noticed the high ceilings and inviting ambiance. I had the chicken chimichanga platter and my daughter had the Tortilla soup. The chimichanga was very good. The Tortilla soup was hearty. This might become my favorite Mexican food restaurant in Navarre.“

“Last minute decision to try out after a great experience with Rick’s in FWB. Tough to pick which is our favorite. Service, food (wings, salad, fish tacos), and drinks were top notch. And let’s not forget the great prices for this area! You have two locals that will be calling any Rick’s location our fav!“

“Fresh seafood galore and other tasty foods. View of the gulf super awesome. Eat dinner and watch the sunset all at the same time. Great place!!! Truly recommend. Lil pricy though. 2 people almost $300.00. It was a good time for sure. Lovely staff as well.“

“Wonderful food. Always good. Biscuits are always great but they were fantastic last time. Sweet tea is always good but again fantastic last time. Nice size meal. Had extra to bring home. Only thing that was off. No lobster dishes during lobster fest. They were out of everything but the live whole lobster. Not a big deal for us but we had wanted to get a lobster appetizer that they didn't have. Still we very much enjoyed it.“

“We loved this place. The service and food were awesome. Sit on the pier, the breeze off the water and view was very enjoyable. You can go right down to the beach and enjoy the sunset or even sit on the pier, have drinks and a meal or just an appetizer. We were also allowed to bring our sweet fur baby. Highly recommend ❤️Parking: There is plenty of parking here. Sometimes when it is in the Summertime parking is harder to get a spot. Usually doesn't take long because people are leaving periodically.“

“The service was excellent. The mussels and oysters were very good. The garlic bread that comes with the mussels had way too much garlic. The Peel and Eat shrimp were inedible mushy and slimy and we had to send them back. They definitely were not made fresh.“

“We loved it here. The daily special couldn’t be beat. Food was hot and fresh and the homemade cocktail sauce was the best we’ve had. The live music and beach front view were a great addition. This is one place we will come back to year after year.“
