“LOVE IT HERE 10/10We came here during our Spring Break & had an amazing experience with our family of 3. The rooftop is beautiful & open to the public for those who are not staying at the Hotel Eiffel. There is Valet Parking out front which was super convenient. I believe the fee is $35 but can be comped depending if you have a receipt from the rooftop. the experience was great, & I would definitely return regardless of the price point.We ordered the frozen strawberry daiquiri & tres amigos + a crab quesdillaa, all were great & flavorful. The drinks & food average around$20 per item which is average for the places in Destin.What made me inclined to leave this stellar review is the service we received. all the staff at the bar were friendly & so helpful!! After forgetting my hair clip in the car, I had asked for a rubber band & was given a hair tie, which was a lifesaver as I wanted to join my son in the pool without getting my hair wet. It was a small gesture but meant the world to me. Thank you!!“

“Came on Christmas Day with family for dinner. There weren't menus for everybody and we had to share the food special menu. Food was very good and served promptly . Drink service on water and drinks could have been better. Disappointed to learn at the end that our owner discount did not apply because it was a holiday. Think that should be stated in communications/ads when. Inviting them to come.“

“★★★★★ An Absolute Gem in Destin – Marina Café Delivers!

I’m now traveling weekly to Ft. Walton Beach for work, and on a recent trip I asked my Uber driver for local favorites for happy hour and dinner. Without hesitation, he pointed me to Marina Cafe, in nearby Destin and wow, was that a great call.

I stopped in a few times for happy hour and quickly got to know Meegan and Jamie at the bar. These two are the real deal: outstanding bartenders, warm, engaging, and always smiling.

During one happy hour, Meegan clued me in on Marina Café’s very popular BOGO hour, so when my wife joined me on my next business trip, we made reservations for 5:30 PM. We arrived early, stood in line with the locals (always a good sign), and grabbed a quick beverage at the bar. Meegan, always remembers my go-to cocktail, but also remembered what I mentioned my wife Diane enjoys. That kind of service is rare and genuinely impressive.

We shared an excellent shrimp cocktail before dinner, and Manager Troy stopped by to say hello. He’s clearly present, engaged, and invested in the guest experience. From there, we were seated and warmly greeted by our server, Ms. Michaela. She did a fantastic job explaining how the special worked, confirmed Diane’s favorite sea bass was available, and reassured me the chef absolutely knew how to prepare swordfish properly.

When I asked for a wine recommendation, Michaela collaborated with Troy, and the pairing they suggested was spot-on. Both entrées were expertly prepared, beautifully cooked and well-seasoned. This kitchen knows exactly what it’s doing.

Before heading out, we made one last stop at the bar for a late-night chocolate martini crafted by Jamie, the perfect nightcap to close out an exceptional evening.

Marina Café isn’t just a great restaurant; it’s a place that understands hospitality, consistent service and great food. Locals love it, and now so do we. If you’re in Destin and don’t go here, you’re doing it wrong.
Scott and Diane“
