Restaurants by Cuisine
“We ate there over this list week 1 night, great fresh, hot food. I had the Cajun platter with a side of collard greens and did not disappoint. The catfish was amazing, the gumbo, shrimp etoufee and red beans and rice were all very flavorful. Will definitely recommend this place to anyone. Will definitely be returning when we come back.”
“We liked the chili lime shrimp and the seafood dip so much that we got them twice the week we stayed. Large portions. We only did carryout each time but the service was good.”
“We have tried several times in the past and we were not overly impressed. But today we decided to give it another shot and we were not disappointed in the least the food was amazing and the service was great Liz was great with recommendations and quick speedy service. We didn’t eat outside but were seated within 10 minutes. If you haven’t tried before I recommend trying and if you tried in the past and weren’t happy I would recommend a second chance the menu has greatly improved. Will definitely be back.”

“Update 10/22/2024 - 5 years plus visiting this establishment while on vacation. Would eat here everyday over the chain tourist trap restaurants. If you are in the area give them a chance and support local business. Great food and big portions. Get the Top Gun! Thank you Muy Wayno's!
We visit Muy Wayne O's everytime we vacation to Panama City Beach. Great food and good time! Don't be intimidated by the construction. Find a place to park in the area and walk in. One of our absolute favorites. Thank you Muy Wayne O's!”
“People leaving a 1 Star rating and never have been in the place...ridiculous! Whoever monitors this site...if anyone...should remove idi0ts like this.”
“Me and my boyfriend went tonight for a little date night and everything was amazing. Host was so sweet and friendly Waitress was helpful fast and thoughtful Food was amazing. No one ever cooks my steak right, but they did. Dessert was classy and yummy The atmosphere was cute As a stand point of someone that works at a restaurant, it looked like a well oiled machine. All of the workers we saw were nice and fast. We saw tables being bussed fast and efficiently. And the vibes were just all good. Over all so good, we will definitely be back next time we go on vacation This is a must go on a date night”

“I had an amazing experience at this Cava! I always order the Harissa Avocado Bowl, and this was hands down the best one I've had yet—everything was super fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Huge shoutout to Christine, Steven, and Brennan for their outstanding customer service. They were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. It’s always a great sign when the food and the team behind it are equally impressive. I’ll definitely be coming back soon!”

“Love this place!! Casual and just delicious!!”
“We had our daughter's birthday celebration (seven adults), and they did not disappoint. Everything was delicious, and everyone was happy with full bellies. The staff was super friendly and great service! Will be back again.”
“Stopped here with my husband for a quick bite after leaving the beach. Very clean and the food was excellent. It was just what we needed after a long day outside. We had the curry goat with pasta, peas and rice. We also had the Manish soup and a veggie plate with cabbage, calleloo, plantains, with peas and rice. Everything was wonderful and Chales did a great job of meeting all of our request. If your looking for authentic Jamaican food this is the place.”
“This place isn’t much to look at and isn’t on the beach, but the food and friendly service make it a very worthy stop. Our only regret is trying it on one of our last days at PBC so we weren’t able to go again! We enjoyed peel and eat shrimp, a Cajun fish and grits dish, and a fried basket, and they were all amazing! Everything was fresh and expertly prepared, the portions were ample, and the value was outstanding. Even the fries were well seasoned and fried to crisp perfection, and the sauces and salad dressing were better than any other place we tried. Beer, wine and cocktails were also good and so affordable when compared to competitors. Highly recommend supporting this amazing, family-owned restaurant that has an “old Florida” appeal that we felt was quite charming!”

“It's an interesting looking place. They have repurposed old furniture and decorations, so nothing matches. I can appreciate the fact that they kept all of this stuff out of the landfill and it doesn't take away from the dining experience unless you really need fancy to be happy. The service was reasonably quick and friendly. They have tables for about 36, a long bar with about 16 stools and some outdoor seating. The food was good and the portions were generous. The prices were a little in the high side, but that seems to be everywhere these days. The garlic knots were noteworhty.”

“I love this place for lunch and often go with coworkers, usually once a week. The restaurant is always clean. The two ladies who serve and waitress are very nice, friendly, attentive, and often remember exactly what we want (my coworkers and I are creatures of habit).
I have tried and can personally recommend their beef and broccoli (the best I have had tbh), egg drop soup, beef lo mein, and beef skewers. My coworkers often get the hunan chicken and chicken with cashew nuts.
We get a kick out of their fortune cookies too. I realize they are bought in bulk (not made in-house) but most of their "fortunes" are just odd statements, and it makes us laugh.”
“Family run business. The older gentleman is the sushi cheff and presumably the owner. He is funny and makes great sushi. I believe the lady serving is the daughter. She is very pleasant and friendly as well. Going here is not just great food, but a warm, friendly atmosphere.”
“What a delicious experience! EVERYONE was very happy and satisfied! Which means a lot going out for dinner with a 6 and 12 year old and a husband weibischere a chef. We all ate different dishes and tried from each other's plates. Everything was delicious! The dessert was pretty standard but the appetizers and main courses were outstanding! And then the VIEW! Dining and enjoying the ocean is hard to beat! Absolutely worth a visit”
“While attending a board meeting and on a lunch break I tried the grouper sandwich blackened. The crisp lettuce and tomato with a slice of red onion was delicious. But the aioli sauce made the tender thick fillet of awesome fish perfect. Seasoned just right and a bistro salad to start I wasn’t hungry for dinner till much later. It was fantastic! The salad with cranberry and cucumber and cherry tomatoes was amazing. The sliced toasted almonds were a nice touch. Blue cheese dressing on side of course. My server was very attentive and friendly. Very kind lady as were all the staff were during my stay. Enjoy”
“Texas Roadhouse consistently delivers a solid, satisfying dining experience. It's a reliable choice for a delicious, classic steak dinner. While it's a chain restaurant, they manage to maintain a good level of quality. I've found their steaks are generally cooked perfectly to order, just as I request them. Of course, with any restaurant serving a high volume of steaks, there's bound to be an occasional cut that's a bit fattier than ideal, but this has been a rare occurrence in my experience. Their signature rolls with cinnamon butter are a warm and welcoming start to the meal, a little touch that always makes the experience feel a bit more special. Beyond the food, the staff at this location is consistently friendly and accommodating. They're attentive without being intrusive, and always happy to address any questions or requests. The atmosphere is lively and casual, making it a great place for a family dinner or a casual get-together with friends. If you're looking for a no-fuss, consistently good steak dinner at a reasonable price, Texas Roadhouse is a solid bet. It's not fine dining, but it's a great value for what you get, and the friendly service always makes the meal more enjoyable.”

“Stopped in late on NYE and we were greeted by an incredibly friendly staff and crazy fast service. Best Waffle House experience we’ve ever had, and really one of the best customer service experiences we’ve ever had anywhere. All the staff were friendly, however Cam was our server and he was fantastic- born to be in the hospitality/customer service industry.”
“If your coming to PCB definitely make sure you stop at Dusty’s. The food was great and the staff was wonderful. And thanks to Jose for the fried cheesecake recommendation it was sooooo good! This was a great place to start your vacation.”
“Forget about all the beach side overpriced seafood. This is one of the best sushi places I’ve been to. And the wait staff is the best experience I have ever had at a restaurant.”

“We had a great first experience on a busy Saturday morning. Signed up online for the waitlist, told us about an hour-gave us time to drive there, check in, and wait about 5 minutes. The outdoor patio was so nice with our dogs, everyone’s food was great, loved the cocktail menu! The women who checked us in and our server were both friendly. Will definitely return again on our next trip to the area.”
“The Homemade Ice Cream Shoppe is a favorite past time my Grandmother introduced me to in high school. everything I come to vacation, our family and friends look for them. They have a massive Banana Split best one I've ever had in my life. Every flavor I've tried over the years is amazing. My daughter and her friends look up the place still now that she's grown because it has become a generational favorite. Staff is great and friendly. I tell everyone i know about this place when they talk about vacationing in PCB area. I took some of my family that live close to PCB a few years ago. I would highly recommend them.”
“Who cares about atmosphere? This is probably the best Ice Cream place in the world. My wife and I get a lot of ice cream, we really like Hershey's the best. The flavors don't seem artificial. Our favorite flavors are Key lime, Banana pudding, bourbon something and cappuccino. Flavors are strong and true. Best ever!”
“This place will be a staple breakfast stop for us in PCB. It's an all around great breakfast, we had the buffet everything was great, biscuits was supreme, good grits, eggs, bacon, sausage gravy, country fried steak, it was all great. We all loved our waitress, she made our breakfast memorable and enjoyable! Yall keep up the good work!”
“Today was our first visit to Shades Bar & Grill. We were there for lunch & the food & service (our server was Sarah) could not have been better. We ordered the chicken & sausage gumbo, Philly cheesesteak & the chicken jalapeño ranch wrap. Our sides were onion rings & sweet potato fries, however we had a hard time making a selection because of the many great food options to choose from. All the food was delicious & Sarah was a top notch server who was friendly, prompt & efficient. Definitely recommend & will visit Shades again when back in the area.”

“AMAZING BBQ!!!! I went here with my mom and best friend on vacation and it was the best BBQ we’ve had in a long time. We got the pulled pork sandwich, turkey sandwich, and sliced brisket with bbq baked beans, Mac and cheese, and coleslaw. Everything was delicious!! The Mac and cheese was HEAVENLY! Definitely coming back here again.”
“Ok its pizza, straight up pizza so it's hard to go hard 5 but it was to good to drop to 4 so 5 stars it is. I use to think it was a little plain when I was younger but nowadays the adult comparison kicks in........ fast food= 15 dollars per person no matter where you go or 6 Dollars doing it to little caesars way”
“Nice clean store. Good, clean, and polite staff. Nothing negative about the experience.
Parking: Plenty of spot for more than I would believe they had seating for.
Kid-friendliness: Decent enough. No problems.”
“Great time, good music, lady bar tenders were great, karaoke was fun,”

“Best pizza in the Florida panhandle!”
“In town on vacation. First time eating here. Service was great. Told the lady I'd take whatever she recommended. She served me up some curry chicken. Everything on the plate was fantastic and had a ginger beer to wash it all down. Everything was seasoned perfectly. No flavor over powered the others. Will definitely be back.”
“This is always our first dinner spot while in PCB! My kids love the spinach dip and chicken tacos. Never had a bad meal here and the sunsets are an added bonus for dinner!”

“AWESOME in every way! Lauren and Becca are super friendly and quick behind the bar. The food is delicious, and the cocktails mouthwatering. We return here every year during our week long vacation because they never fail us. Plenty of TV's for sports action , and a pool for a cool dip. HIGHLY RECOMMEND by my husband and I. NOTE: We tried the Barefoot Hideaway down the road, but left after being seated (inside, which was somewhat stale and smelly), and waiting for about 8 minutes without being acknowledged by a server. It was NOT busy at the time. DISAPPOINTED. Will not go to that location again. Go see Becca and Lauren. THEY ROCK!!!”

“We were in Panama City Beach and stumble upon harpoon Harry’s and I’m so glad that we did. It’s the best waterfront view that we’ve ever had while eating. The food was fabulous and fresh, I would definitely go back again! We had this pull apart cheesy garlic bread for an appetizer and it was incredible. Between the two of us we had a coconut shrimp dinner and grouper finger dinner. Easy access to the beach to photograph the sunset!”
