“We enjoyed a wonderful supper tonight at Saltwater Grill! It was our first time dining, and we’ll be forever customers. The restaurant has a fresh coastal vibe, and the food was delicious. Erin, our server provided excellent service, and her recommendation didn’t miss. We ordered the manic sushi roll, lobster spring rolls, and martinis to start. Then for our main entrees the prime rib, and catch of the day scallops. It was all wonderful. We ended with the cheesecake, which was absolutely delicious and enough for 5 people to share. If you’re ever in the PCB area, you must visit Saltwater Grill. It was excellent!“

“Highly recommend! The bartender Tori was so sweet and helpful. The food was delicious, we got the fish tacos.“

“We’ve been to multiple restaurants looking for the best hush puppies. HANDS DOWN Dee’s has the BEST hush puppies! The burgers and mayo main tacos were amazing! Customer service, amazing! Wish we would have found them sooner on our vacation.“

“Great food and great service!“

“The place was pretty good, and I'm not the biggest fan of seafood. I didn't go to crazy, got the shrimp and andouille skewers and the seasoning on it all was actually great. And I didn't expect to like the wild rice but it was surprisingly very good, I finished every last grain. The shrimp and crab quesadilla was alright. A bit too fishy for what it should have been, nothing special. stars“

“Best shrimp boil I’ve ever had, from the seasoning to how well it’s cooked. Can’t beat it!“

“We went here last night 6.19.25 & Paris was our waitress and she went above and beyond. This place was packed from the moment it opened, we were her first night table of 12& she instantly had a bigger table of 15 and she handled both with grace and the most professionalism! We will 100% be back because of the food and Paris! Also, the food was so amazing. Great portion sizes! Outside there is a pool full of alligators that you can look at while you wait!“

“Runaway island was an incredible place to get married, we had the best experience with them. Devin is fantastic, so communicative and helpful. The food, drinks, and service were amazing. The beach itself is beautiful, the upstairs event space is perfect. We are beyond satisfied and we can't recommend them highly enough!“

“Lobster rolls were delicious! So delicious we ate there twice in the same day!!!!The Hot Honey Shrimp Mac was delicious as well! We ordered the BLT, Lobster salad and original rolls. We decided to skip the BLT the second time and added bacon to the lobster salad roll.. 💯delicious!“

“Just had a drink @ bar, Troy was really nice! Cool place“

“Food was amazing!! Their fried chicken is the best tasting and the pork chop was delicious and soooo tender. You could cut the pork chop w a fork. Yummy. The poppyseed salad was the best and the green beans ooh, so good! But the sweet potato I couldn't get enough...yummy, yummy, yummy! I'm too full to eat dessert but they let you take that home w you. Our waitress, Kaitlyn, was so sweet and attended to our every need. A place we will recommend to our friend's and family. Now to go and walk off those extra calories. Haha! Well worth the extra calories!!!!“

“local here...we eat there quite often and when we have visitors in town. Had dinner last night and it was amazing, as usual! Aniston was incredibly attentive without being annoying, food presentation was beautiful, served hot and in a timely manner! We love that they offer the Locals card..it is very much appreciated! One of the owners is always present and touching tables. Highly recommend!!“

“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.“

“We are staying at Edgewater and have enjoyed two meals this week at Ocean's. Food has been excellent, Victoria's drink of the week was the best, made with a cherry rum. She was our waitress both days, friendly, efficient and attentive!“

“Here in town for a family vacation, we decided on pompano's and it was seriously a nice lunch with family and the atmosphere was delightful. If we do vacation again here we will def be coming back!! I ordered the seafood lunch boil and a few drinks and they were *chef kiss* ! it was nice.“

“Love this place!! Casual and just delicious!!“

“Definitely a fun experience. Come hungry. Come when they open. They changed their hours recently it looks like. They open at 4pm.
Crab was pretty good, it was the main reason I wanted to come here and was not dissatisfied. I put away 9-10 snow crab knuckles myself.
Steak was borrrringgg. They advertise as filet but their supplier is definitely lying to them. Tastes like regular hamburger.
Drink specials were fun, $5 old fashioned.
Indoor and outdoor seating. Again, get there early, get a table inside, avoid the bugs and excessive walk to buffet line.
You do have a server, at first I thought what’s the point, but as she was taking away old shells and helping clean up messes I definitely saw the vision.
Had some cheese curds, cake and ice cream at the end. About the quality you’d expect from a buffet.

Eat your fill, enjoy a little walk by the lake afterwards. Would have given 5 stars if the steak wasn’t hamburger quality.“

“We ate there tonight and this will be included as one of our favorite places! We had the pot roast and fried chicken. The helpings were large, and absolutely delicious! We love that this restaurant supports our military, and Salutes America!“

“Danielle was an AMAZING server. Our meal was delicious from start to finish. The fried crab claws here are the best we've had here in Florida. My husband had the blackened chicken pasta and a Caesar salad. I had the Buddy's Seafood platter. We loved all of it.“

“Amazing place to eat! sherrie was very attentive! The food was delicious!“

“Good food and great service“

“The BEST buffet I’ve ever been to. My family and I recently visited while on vacation in PCB. AMAZING crab legs, other food was delicious too. My kids LOVED IT. The service was top tier. Our server was the best we’ve ever had at any restaurant. Definitely recommend.“

“After not finding anything we liked at Hammerhead Fred’s, we decided to try Longboards which was next door. We ordered fried mushrooms, wings, fries, pizza, and street corn. The food was amazing and we had plenty of leftovers and it was even better the next day. The trivia & games on screen kept us entertained while we ate. The female who took our order and made our food was so nice and we will definitely go back when we are in PCB again.“

“First time staying at the resort.
Kenny the bartender was amazing! He was by far my favorite waiter/bartender during the whole week in PCB.
We had a bacon and pepperoni pizza. Soooo good and more affordable then any other pizza and did not have to pay a delivery service or leave the resort for a easy dinner which was a plus. Their salads are yummy to and loaded!!!!! They currently close at 8 and they are doing some remodels! Do not let these things stop you. This is a really affordable and yummy place to eat after a long day at the beach or pool 👨‍🍳❤️“

“We had an amazing experience at Angelo’s Steak Pit. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Everything was on point, from the service from our waitress Emily! The fried cheese curds and GIANT onion rings were a great way to start the meal. Absolutely loved their Greek salad dressing. So fresh! 🥗 Our steaks were all cooked just right. My steak n shrimp came with the best hush puppies I’ve ever tasted. Like fried little bites straight from heaven 😇 Our kids ate every last bite of mac & cheese… giving it a 12 out of 10! My daughter loved the virgin strawberry daiquiris in the cute cowboy boot cups! 👢Don’t skip the bourbon lemonade cocktail. They told me that they make their own bourbon…. PLUS you get to keep the cup as a fun souvenir 🥃“

“We reserved for xmas dinner. We were treated very well by all the staff! The buffet had a wonderful selection and everything was absolutely delicious!! Turkey, Beef and Ham perfectly done. We are definitely coming back again before leaving town after the holidays. Thankyou to all the staff for a very memorable Xmas.“
