“Restaurant Iron has long been our go-to destination in downtown Pensacola. Its intimate ambiance, dedicated upscale menu, and consistent quality made it stand out above any other establishment in the area. We’ve brought out-of-town guests to showcase the richness of the local cuisine, always confident that the experience—from the first cocktail to the last bite of Nutella or raspberry ganache pie—would impress. Our typical order was a ritual: shareable truffle fries, a perfectly cooked ribeye (always photo-worthy), and a decadent dessert to close. These elements, paired with the cozy atmosphere, were what made Iron so special. Unfortunately, our most recent visit on May 9 was deeply disappointing. Despite the torrential downpour, we didn’t think twice about keeping our reservation. But upon arrival, we were met with an entirely different experience. The menu, which now features sliders and sandwich-style dishes, felt more suited for a casual lunch spot than the refined dining experience we had come to love. Several signature dishes were removed, and the new offerings didn’t align with the elevated identity Iron once upheld. Even the menu design itself no longer reflects the restaurant’s original charm. Service also fell short of expectations. We were served the wrong salad, and the correct one arrived without dressing. Dessert—though eventually comped—took an unexpectedly long time to be served, rounding out an already lackluster evening. We truly hope this is a temporary shift. Restaurant Iron was once our top choice for special occasions and recommendations. But based on our last visit, we no longer feel confident choosing it for a date night or referring friends and family. Please reconsider restoring the signature dishes and experience that made Iron exceptional.”
“We just had the perfect lunch here. Chef Carl, Mandylynn, and their team are so friendly and fast, and the food was AMAZING. The new lunch menu did not disappoint. This was literally the best pork I’ve eaten. So unique and flavorful!”
“Another amazing visit to McGuires Pensacola. We were seated in the Grand Hall tonight. Shout out to our server, Jeb! He treated us superbly! His personable, knowledgeable, and thorough. We enjoyed our entire experience tonight! Loved hearing the bagpipes as they were played as the musician walked through. Thank you Jeb and everyone at McGuire’s for a great evening!”
“My husband and I visit Salty Pearl at least once a week! Great oysters, amazing shrimp and fries platter, and the burger is delicious too. The service is friendly -we love this neighborhood gathering place.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Absolutely AMAZING Food and service!! Porsha waited on us and was super sweet knowledgeable about the menu and made sure everything was correct and kept our drinks filled up!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! We also bought some beautiful ornaments from JD's art to place on our tree to remember our family getaway!! 🐬🏖🌊”

I had the stuff. Flounder! It was so good. Presentation was beautiful. My husband had deep fried chicken plate and the macaroni and cheese and greens was so delicious. Literally five stars!!!!”

“This is such a great restaurant! We traveled from Mobile, AL specifically to try this place out. I ordered the crab cake benedict with new potatoes and a side of bacon, it was amazing! The mimosas were also great. I loved we could mix/customize them at the table and it was a good tasting champagne as well. Everyone in my party enjoyed their food and the service. It is such a welcoming, fun vibe with live jazz music. This spot has been added to my visit list anytime in Pensacola.”
“Everything about EOTL is top-notch - the food, the music, the people, even the physical place itself - everything. Its been over two years since I and another stumbled upon EOTL Cafe, so I don't remember exactly what I had, but I remember I thought it some of the best vegan food I'd ever had. I just might move there JUST to be closer - it's THAT good!”
“We ordered birria tacos, birria quesadilla, a lengua taco, a barbacoa taco, a side of refried beans, and a bean rice and cheese burrito (for my kid). It was $40 and worth EVERY penny. We waited under 10 minutes. everything was hot and fresh. the lengua was tender and NOT chewy. 11/10!!!!”
“Great food. I love this place. Staff is the best. It’s my go to restaurant. Great place for a cup of hot chocolate or if you’re a coffee drinker that too. Still trying different things on the menus and haven’t had anything I did not totally enjoy. When my family and friends come to visit this is where I’ll take them for sure ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“The food and service were great. Friendly people and the burger was amazing”
“My Nephew and bride had the pleasure of dining at Rodizio Grill. A perfect evening , excellent service, food was over the top. A complete dining experience , Hats off to Brandon the manager and his crack staff. Thanks to all. for a wonderful dinner.”

“Today was my first time going and I absolutely loved the energy! I got some Teriyaki wings and my boyfriend got a burger that he couldn’t even finish lOl . My waitress name was Rebecca, she was very kind and polite ❤️ The manager stopped by before we left and gave us a little back ground on the restaurant. That fact that he took the time as busy as it was very sweet . Outstanding place ! Wish I could give more stars . Will be returning soon!”
“My wife and I dined there this evening and had the Chefs blind tasting. What a fantastic experience. The waitstaff, the chef and the food were top notch. Every course was full of flavor and mind blowing pairings. Kiwi sorbet and tuna tartare? Yup! It was out of this world. Recommend and will go again. 11/10”
“Cannot recommend this place highly enough. It was so good that we had to go twice during our 5 day vacation. The owner is so friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous. He was happy to make recommendations based on our preferences. The entire staff were great as well. The food was outstanding; everything we ate was so flavorful and the portions were big. Do yourself a favor and go ahead and get two or three orders of naan with your meal… so worth it. We can’t wait until we’re in PCB again; Taste of India will definitely be in our meal rotation!”
“My wife and I had dinner there. To start my wife had the blueberry lemon drop martini and I had an Old Fashioned. Her martini was excellent, my Old Fashioned was a little too sweet for my taste and a little pricey at $16.50. We had the wedge salad which was excellent. For dinner I had the grouper over risotto. It was a very nice size of fish and cooked just right. My wife had the tenderloin tournedos. Both dishes we outstanding. For dessert we received a complimentary Blueberry Cheesecake because it was my birthday. It wasn't the typical cheesecake in that it was heated with ice cream on top. It was delicious. We can't say enough about our waiter Brandon. He was very engaging and excellent in every way. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, while being a bit pricey with our meal topping over $200 for the two of us. That is why we only go to Jackson's for special occasions.”
“The location is wonderful for a sunset view. Our server Roger C. was the perfect amount of attentive. He also listened regarding exactly how we wanted our martinis prepared and they were just right. All of the food was delicious!”

“I will not give the 1 star review they deserve. But after waiting 1 1/2 hrs the lady at the counter lied to my wife about her order. It never got placed. I understand the pressure there under. But instead of fixing the problem we got our money back and left without food. I was very unhappy with the service received by this employee. I'm not using names because I don't want anyone fired. But I probably wouldn't be back for while”
“I like going to this waffle house. I come here because I feel lonely especially since it's me just all by myself without my late husband and my son and daughter-in-law with my grandkids stationed over in virginia. I come to this waffle house because I like the company. The service is good and the food is fantastic. We got some really great workers here. I believe that Kristen, Melissa, Jayne, Stephanie, Whitney, Katrina, Kadaisha, Linda and Holly are just about the sweetest waitresses. We also got some really great cooks like Calvin, Patrick, Jeremiah and Quincy. I also think that William is just about the friendliest manager. I really feel right at home here. Yall keep up the good work!! 😉”
“I have been to many waffle Houses and this one is the best food is perfect everytime the customer service is the best in town I have to mention Terrie is the best and so is Chris they are great. The cooks are friendly and the food they serve is always delicious can't wait to go again soon.”

“Lunch was delicious today. Angie was my waitress. She is amazing. She was by herself today and had several customers in. She took care of everyone's order without a problem. She is sweet, fast, and very efficient and knows her job very well. I would recommend anyone eating there to ask for Angie, she will take good care of you.”
“My husband and I visited this evening for a date night. It was our second time coming (we visit once a year from Ohio). We both had the shrimp and grits, and it was FANTASTIC. So flavorful!! The portion size was perfect, and we both left stuffed. The view from the deck is beautiful, overlooking the water, with pelicans flying by, and our waitress was very nice. We will be back every time we’re in town!”
“Hands down my favorite local coffee shop! All locations- their Perdido coffee truck, their brick-and-mortar near the front gate of NAS, and especially their truck at the Perdido soccer fields for a much-needed energy boost on Saturdays lol, are incredible! 🙌 I literally recommend everything, their coffee is top-notch, their Red Bull fruit drinks are perfect for a pick-me-up, and their food hits the spot every time. The service is always fast, friendly, and genuinely caring. What really makes BAM special though is the people behind it. The owners have such an inspiring story, they sold their ranch in the Pacific Northwest and moved to Pensacola, following what they felt was a calling from God. You can feel that purpose and passion in the way they run their business. They’re humble, kind, and believers, which for me is a huge bonus. ☕️🙏 If you haven’t been to BAM yet, do yourself a favor and go, you won’t find a more welcoming, faith-filled, and delicious coffee spot around! 💙 #SupportLocal #FaithDrivenBusiness #BAMCoffee #PensacolaCoffee #PerdidoKey #NASPensacola #CoffeeWithPurpose”
“This was our first visit. I had the lean brisket burnt ends, my friends had the ribs. Both were wonderful! The burnt ends were tender and the ribs were moist and tender as well—Perfection! Cheyenne, our server was kind, very friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. I wish I could give 10 stars. We were told the BBQ is no# 1 in Florida and no# 9 in the nation. I do not doubt it! Also, the ladies’ restroom was very clean.”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Awesome 90 year old bar where the locals hangout in Old Easthill under the canopy of Oak trees. A lot is packed in this little place. Large selection of beer and seltzer, and some wine too with excellent customer service behind the bar. TV's inside and out back for the sports fans. A dart machine and pinball. Trivia a night during the week and several local bands play out back on some weekends. Their Wisteria sandwich food truck is also delicious.”
“Drove out of my way for this place and it did not disappoint. I got chicken pad thai, spring rolls, and Thai iced tea. The lady who served me was great and encouraged me to try each one of the candies! I’m from out of town and will miss this place dearly! Worth a stop!”
“We just finished eating at the Ft Walton location. 10/10 recommend. Fast, friendly service. Food was outstanding! I had stir fry noodles with shrimp, generous portions, and husband had Szechuan Xian House Dry Pot with a side of mixed vegetables. Both were excellent. Restaurant was clean. We will definitely be back.”
“My husband and I stopped by for a random lunch. We were pleasantly surprised. it was a clean environment. My husband had a chicken biriyani, I had butter chicken masala. The food was fresh and tasty, I was glad to see the bread was not at all greasy and was very light. We will be back.”
“Amazing food and unique craft cocktails- we love Taylor and Dani 🫶🏼”
Cheap Eats
“I saw someone on FB bragging about their donuts being great so we had to stop by and check them out. We picked out their apple fritters and they are fantastic. They are cooked all the way through and the best we have had since we moved here to Florida. We also got two round solid glazed donuts and had them filled at the time we ordered. Very happy we stopped by and we will be back again soon !!!!”
“ALWAYS Greeted with a Smile. The Staff Members Are Wonderful! I Frequently do lunch runs and The Staff will HELP me with items that I have forgotten about. The DRIVE-THRU is VERY BUSY at times and I NEVER EXPERIENCED OR WITNESSED ANY HOSTILITY OR AGITATION FROM THE STAFF! The Staff Point out different selections, know the correct dinner I describe.. Lol! She Will Make Sure that Everything I NEED is on point and Precise! The STAFF IS PLEASANT AND THE FOOD IS DELISH 😀! EXCELLENT SERVICE FROM ORDERING TO PICK-UP! All of My Items were Correct and Once Again I Love FOOSACKLY'S STAFF AND THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS ♥️🤗”
“Had to be in town for a month and after hunting for years for a good coffee shop in Pensacola for years (and we’ve been all over town), we finally found it here. It wasn’t the closest, but it was the very best - loved the ambiance, the original artwork, the friendliness of the staff, the Asiago bagel with jalapeño cream cheese and a large latte, extra shot with whole milk. Though my son loved the Purple Rain and my wife loved the Crème Brûlée. I’ll miss this place!!!”
“I had never tried sushi before, but had decided to branch out and treat myself in honor of a promotion at work. I had a lovely meal. The waitress who helped me choose what to eat was kind and explained the menu carefully. Thank you, Jadea, for helping this "old lady" treat herself.”
“I had the most incredible experience at Western Shawarma last night, it's truly one of the finest Mediterranean fast food gems in Pensacola, a must-visit destination that will leave you craving for more, I'm already hooked after two days of savoring their mouthwatering chicken shawarma! Western Shawarma”
“Visited Alga while waiting to check in to our Airbnb around the corner. Super cool environment, nice staff. Several beer options. I drink pretty much exclusively IPAs and have had a ton of IPAs from microbreweries. I tried both the Lo-fi hazy IPA and the Bang Bang hazy IPA. I really wanted to love them more but they were kind of meh. Drinkable but not at the top of my list. Would love to come back again another time and give them another shot.”
“Excellent welcoming service, Erin the Manager was very inviting. Food was amazing to look at, smell and taste.”
“I went here a couple of weeks ago with my aunt and grandma. This place was so elegant and beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed everything, from the food to the ambiance.”
“We have been coming here since the old location across the street when my son was still in his momma's belly. 15+ years and it will always be our favorite!”
“We had lunch Saturday at Bavaria Pensacola. We had a delightful and knowledgeable server named Lauren. The food was great. And Colby, the GM, was charming and hospitable. If you are in Pensacola and want some German food or beer, be sure to stop by!”
“Pace Location Today 11/14! Food was great, but service was even better. I ordered lunch online, arrived and noticed the line, (lunchtime and everyone arrived at once) checked the status and he was honest saying he’s working on it but he got backed up. He didn’t act annoyed with being busy or inconvenienced by a lot of orders like so many restaurants do these days, he simply handled business. In the matter of 7-8 minutes, I watched him complete the 6 orders in front of me plus mine. I was parked where I could see into the food truck while waiting with my sleeping baby and was so impressed. Among many other things, he switched gloves between stations which im sure is out of care for those with allergies. He could have kept the same ones on to save himself time but he chose the safe way. When I picked my order up he didn’t look aggravated or stressed over just clearly busting it, he was kind and professional. I don’t know his name, but I hope his management sees this. You guys have an awesome employee on your hands that deserves recognition. The world needs more of these types of people.”
“My husband and I come here frequently and love their food! Great British-inspired meals that you can’t find elsewhere in Pensacola. Also love the sticky toffee pudding!”
“So good! The upstairs vibe is our favorite, food is amazing - salads, French Onion Soup, Filet and NY Strip and bourbon sweet potato mash, but the service and care is extraordinary - Jemal is absolutely incredible - what an amazing human being and he takes great pride in his job and responsibility - hope every one has some Jemal in their life! We will be back - great food, great service and pride in each person’s role makes this place!”
“Bonelli’s is always a fun dining experience with excellent service! The food is authentic Italian and always delicious! They have great wine too. Inside it is cozy and relaxing and outside feels festive and relaxing.”
“I had never tried sushi before, but had decided to branch out and treat myself in honor of a promotion at work. I had a lovely meal. The waitress who helped me choose what to eat was kind and explained the menu carefully. Thank you, Jadea, for helping this "old lady" treat herself.”
“Our server was Pinky and she did a great job serving 6 of us while also handling several other tables. I had what I think they called their signature bloody Mary which had a skewer of pickled vegetables, shrimp and a slice of bacon. Very good. Then the fried fish basket which I think was grouper. 2 large pieces of fish that were juicy and not over cooked. The sauce that came with it was great. The fries were crisp and hot. The Cole slaw and twice baked potato salad were obviously house made, a long with almost everything else. The onion rings were not homemade but they were still good, made from sliced onions, not chopped and formed. Everyone else enjoyed their food also.”
“Great place! The waiter was amazing, the food was great, the manager was fantastic!!!! I only wish we lived closer so we could come here more often!!! Will absolutely be back!”

“Food was cooked to perfection! Staff were super friendly and polite, and the pricing was great, we were there for happy hour on a Sunday, drink specials were terrific!! I would recommend this to all my friends and family!”
“Josey C., our waitress, made us feel welcome from the moment we made eye contact. Elders and teen alike enjoyed the family vibe. We had oyster, shrimp, coleslaw and turnip greens with hush puppies. The service and food were impeccable. 10 out of 10!”
“This is a great place! Prices are a little high but the food is absolutely fantastic! I recommend the Snapper stuffed with Crab and Shrimp. It is the best dish I have ever tried. My son had Coconut Shrimp and said it was great. My mother had a steak and it was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend The Oyster Bar and Marina!”
“I haven't been here in a year and just as expected, excellent! The red snapper was fantastic and Rachel provided great service with just the right amount of checking in on me. And like before, I will stop in again next time I am in the area!”
“A+ experience. AIDEN was our waiter. He had every detail covered. Our steaks were seasoned/cooked to perfection. 14 May 2024 High suggest this place for the very best steak over all the competition.”
“My friends and I absolutely love dining at Sushi Masa! We try to visit at least once a month. Food is always amazing. We really enjoyed our most recent experience with Becca as our server! Definitely ask for her! Service was wonderful and quick. I wish they had one in Gulf Shores! But definitely worth the hour drive!!”
“My husband and I stopped by on a whim today while in Pensacola and sat at the bar. Great conversation and fabulous stout beer options. Akil made me the best blackberry margaritas ever! Honestly, it was the best tasting margarita that I have had since I moved to the coast. Thank you sir. We shall be back!”
“IF U NEED A SAMPLING OF NAWLINS THEN COME HERE! Raw Oysters 🦪 on Happy Hour, Dirt Martinis 🍸 get the NOLA SAMPLER, Bo and Kaitlyn was excellent host and server for our party of 14! Boudin Balls spice perfectly! Seafood Platter and salad was fresh and melt in mouth. Roumelade sauce tasted authentic.”
“I have nothing but great things to say about the food and service! Everything is fantastic from the minute you walk in the door.”
“Really enjoyed our lunch here, fajitas, enchiladas and tacos were delicious, great portions and very fast and friendly service. We will be returning!! Thanks!”
“So thankful that we found such an amazing place for sushi within an hour of our home. It’s a 45 minute drive each way for us but worth it every single time. We love Kalbi Ichiban! The udon 🍜 and Yoke Saba is delicious as well as the many different rolls/nigiri/sashimi that we’ve tried. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is very professional. We’ll be back!”
“Not bad, pretty chill vibe, definitely a younger crowd bar, Not a great beer selection, nothing on tap, and a bunch of their specialty drinks seem to be gin based. I don't drink gin it gives me a raging headache. Their small menu called bites was pretty good. Overall it wasn't bad at all we'd visit again. My wife and I had several drinks and a few bites as we waited for the show at the Saenger to start.”
“Profesional, friendly staff. Took Rob's recommendation and had chicken piccata and subbed pasta for the potatoes. It was amazing! my husband started with the Italian salad followed by the lasagna. He enjoyed half of it- the portions were so large, we both had to take at least half of it home. Will definitely go back the next time we visit Pensacola!”
“We lived in Naples, Italy (the birthplace of pizza) for several years and I can say this is the closest to real Neapolitan-style pizza you'll find anywhere in Pensacola!”
“Good food great service I really enjoyed the atmosphere and everything was great and everyone was very polite would recommend someone to try it”
“Newly built, this is a great place to eat lunch or dinner
Vegetarian options: Not sure
Dietary restrictions: Some choices
Kid-friendliness: Definitely
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“This place and staff personnel is awesome I enjoy myself everytime we go! Check it out!”
“I sent my brother and nephews here for a birthday gift to my brother. They enjoyed the food and said their server, Jadea, was a big help in deciding what they chose to eat. They all said they would definitely eat here again.”
“Blackened grouper was awesome! Melted in my mouth. Cole slaw was great too. Can't wait to go back.”
“Delicious bbq & great service! The best bbq sauce I have ever had! Highly recommend!”
“my favorite is the connecticut lobster rolls & bisque. I truly need to try the others. I'm sure they're just as good. 😋”
“This place is the BEST. Old school boat yard where you can get your bottom paint done and back in the water! Giovanni is by far the highlight of the business. He seems mean but is really nice and helpful over you get to know him. If not for him I wouldn't have known what I was doing!!Great location by down town Pcola. Close to everything!”
“Everything is very fresh, service is fast, and we are particularly fond of the lunch bento boxes at a reasonable price. It's quick to get to, too, being down the highway from Corry Field Navy Base. I see they also have call in/pick up! Hibachi is available daily after 4:30pm!”
“It is best hibachi experience I ever had. Food so delicious and staff so kindness. We waited about 25 minutes but honestly it really worth your time. We been tried couple local Japanese restaurant, Tokyo still the best. Good Job, Tokyo!”
“We stopped in this RT on Friday, the 28th to buy gift cards. Jack took his time abmnd explained how the cards word and when you could and could not use them. Awesome customer service!!!”
“This place is incredible. Even when all table grills are on and the place is packed, is still comfortable in there. Has a very night club feel with the music but I understand why they do that for noise control. This place is awesome and the prices are even better”
“Such amazing food and such a wonderful dining experience! Our server Presley was incredible! He did a fantastic job and made our experience here top notch!!”
“Breakfast clean and healthy food. excellent, gluten free bagels, acai bowls, avocado toast, much more and of course the coffee. best hot chocolate i have ever had. go upstairs it is another experience all together. excellent addition to our downtown. finally a salad that i dont have to cut up that is dressed not drowned in dressing. Pick Light Medium or heavy. suggest medium as it is really good and not too oily. You will not be dissappointed.”
“The food was absolutely the best and the service as well. Great place! Can’t wait to go back!”
“I was on campus and decided to try them out. I ordered a regular chicken burrito bowl, and was not disappointed. First off.. the presentation was ON POINT! If you’re a foodie like me…presentation is important when I try new things. The quality of the chicken was GREAT! Note I will say this, I wish it had more seasoning, but hey. They do charge extra for guac…so I skipped on it.”
“Nice clean new sports bar
Patio is on north side so it's in shade in the afternoon
Staff was great
Wings were good...except we personally didn't like the garlic parmesan flavor.
Got 2 sandwiches in our group...the cheese-steak one was good...chicken one was meh
Definitely will return”
“We had a party of 9 Friday night for dinner. Ava was our Server and She was outstanding. We had seven different dishes and they all were delicious. We also shared 4 desserts and decided the bread pudding was the best, next the Carmel cheese cake. Thank you for making our visit enjoyable. We will be back! 👍”
“Great restaurant, Amanda was a wonderful server. She had delicious recommendations. The calamari was too salty but cooked good and the sauce with it was so tasty. Loved the chicken schwarma and lobster ravioli. Decor was beautiful and enjoyed the overall experience. We will be back.”
“Got the Bairdi crab when visiting a few weeks ago! Some of the best crab legs I’ve ever eaten, well worth the money! If you can, give them a try! Next time we are down we will be back!”
“I have been coming here for 3 years and the staff is very friendly and the food is amazing! The Fuji Maki roll is to die for along with the hot pot and the KBBQ. you have to try the Mala soup if you do the Hotpot and the spicey Beef Bugolgi 10/10!”
“Great food and great customer service. Sub in a tub is almost a good idea for those who have to avoid carbs. It just doesn't taste the same.”
“The ex-prison guard bouncer in the back of this bar is racist and aggressive. He is disrespectful, degrading and has no place at this bar. This used to be my favorite bar and now I have such a bad taste in my mouth about it that I don't ever want to go back. Such a horrible experience.”
“We just went to this Chuck E Cheese for my kids birthday while on vacation and it was absolutely amazing!! The manager was the absolute nicest person!! We Loved this place.”
“Horrible experience... Some people couldn't afford water bottles at the restaurant. They brought water bottles from outside. When they knew it was out of the restaurant's business policy, they misbehaved. How cheap mentality!!!! Those people should go to fast food stores. Please never come to a well-known restaurant like an Indian Grill. I don’t mention anyone's name. How do they know that issue? Might be the same people who came to the restaurant. How are they behaving, their comment has been shown?”
“Good food at a really nice setting. $25 shrimp and grits is a bit steep but it was good. The much praised meatloaf was just meatloaf. Good place for a family celebration but pricey and noisey.”
“The food was cooked to our specifications. We went there for Father’s Day and was not dissapointed. Our server, Jamie was very professional. She did a great job!”
“Where to begin. Your server Sam is phenomenal. She knows the menu and has no problem with helping my father choose something to his liking. My father is a bit rude at times and can every difficult, but that didn't stop Ms.Sam from being so nice, polite, and attentive to us. If I still had my restaurant open I would most definitely offer her a higher position. Her attitude under pressure is something you don't see to often. She kept a smile on her face. The food was good but the service was even better. Thank you Sam for all you did for us and making sure my Father was satisfied. Your awesome Sweety.”
“out back is great when they don't disappoint. I'm going to blame Mother's Day for tonight's issues. We waited over an hour for food to go. what should of been a medium rare steak was medium well, accompanied by a half burnt baked potato. Also a burnt yet still raw gummy battered onion blossom. Guessing the fryers are up to high to try and keep up with demand. Hopeful my next experience is a more pleasant one.”

“Visited Pensacola for the first time. This restaurant was close to our accommodations. The menu looked good online so we tried it. It did not disappoint. The service was great, the atmosphere was nice, and the food was delicious. I have been trying to eat foods outside of my comfort zone. I could not decide between a few options but went with the Buddha Bowl. You must try it - you won't regret it.”
“I've been a couple times and and the atmosphere and staff are fantastic. The website to order tickets is borderline disgusting! Unreadable white text on beige background. I had to highlight everything to purchase tickets and it was very tedious. Whoever designed the website colors needs to be punished.”
“We ate there last Sunday fue the first time and it was wonderful . The service was quick and pleasant. The food was INCREDIBLE . Loved the atmosphere ! We will definitely be back and very soon too . It was amazing . Everything was delicious . I'm telling everyone I know about this great place to dine !”
“We eat at this Cava a couple times a week. For the majority of the time it's a decent experience and we keep returning if that tells you anything. My suggestions are to make sure you confirm that the rice and lentils are cooked appropriately because sometimes those ingredients are still uncooked/hard as rocks. Watch them add your toppings because they seem to want to rush you through that process and they tend to skip toppings that you request because they are in a hurry to keep things moving.”

“We live 3 minutes from our nearest Cracker Barrel but choose to drive 35 miles to the I 10 - Pine Forest Road location in Florida. The food is better, meeting our expectations, the people are friendlier, particularly Cleo who always remembers us and is warm, joyful and welcoming. The servers we've had are much better here and our experience with Anna is always great. My wife loves shopping here. This store is just run better, the way one would expect of Cracker Barrel.

“My husband and I visited this evening for a date night. It was our second time coming (we visit once a year from Ohio). We both had the shrimp and grits, and it was FANTASTIC. So flavorful!! The portion size was perfect, and we both left stuffed. The view from the deck is beautiful, overlooking the water, with pelicans flying by, and our waitress was very nice. We will be back every time we’re in town!”
“This is such a great restaurant! We traveled from Mobile, AL specifically to try this place out. I ordered the crab cake benedict with new potatoes and a side of bacon, it was amazing! The mimosas were also great. I loved we could mix/customize them at the table and it was a good tasting champagne as well. Everyone in my party enjoyed their food and the service. It is such a welcoming, fun vibe with live jazz music. This spot has been added to my visit list anytime in Pensacola.”
“Today was my first time going and I absolutely loved the energy! I got some Teriyaki wings and my boyfriend got a burger that he couldn’t even finish lOl . My waitress name was Rebecca, she was very kind and polite ❤️ The manager stopped by before we left and gave us a little back ground on the restaurant. That fact that he took the time as busy as it was very sweet . Outstanding place ! Wish I could give more stars . Will be returning soon!”

“Lunch was delicious today. Angie was my waitress. She is amazing. She was by herself today and had several customers in. She took care of everyone's order without a problem. She is sweet, fast, and very efficient and knows her job very well. I would recommend anyone eating there to ask for Angie, she will take good care of you.”
“My wife and I go to Pensacola once a month and we usually stop at Cheddars. We never had a bad meal until yesterday. She got a salad and I got a burger. The burger was over cooked,the lettuce was wilted and the onions were old and they were the outside of the onion ring,chewy not crispy. I don't complain at restaurants because you never know what going to happen when the take your meal back to the kitchen. The service was great the young lady was very attentive and I still left a tip.I didn't eat much of it.”
“Had an excellent first time visit to Miller's Ale House. Wow, the food was great. Server, Ron, was amazing and so was his trainee, Tia. Very attentive. Alec, the manager, came by to check on us to make sure everything was good, and it sure was! Nothing but good things to say. We'll be back!”

“Food was amazing!!! Was recommended by a friend so we wanted to try a few different things. The wings were top notch! Egg rolls delicious! Vermicelli…I practically licked the bowl clean it was so good! Sticky rice out of this world! All the teas yummy!! You have to try it!”
“I loved all the music they played. I love the service that we had from our waitress. She was very very awesome and this is our first time coming here and we will definitely be back. We love the fact that they open up at 10 o’clock because that’s right in our wheelhouse for wanting to come out and eat. One margarita down, that was the second one oops I’m sorry I didn’t take a picture at the beginning, but they were awesome”
“I had never tried sushi before, but had decided to branch out and treat myself in honor of a promotion at work. I had a lovely meal. The waitress who helped me choose what to eat was kind and explained the menu carefully. Thank you, Jadea, for helping this "old lady" treat herself.”
“Such a great place! The Vietnamese coffee is fire. The ladies at the register are always so friendly and nice! I had the strawberry matcha as well and the strawberry puree great. Excited to try all their drinks. Bringing a new friend every time I visit just to spread the news about this place!
EDIT 1
After my original few visits I've noticed a bit of a decline in the service here. I've had two instances now where the barista running the shop couldn't do something on the register like a drink modification or printing an itemized receipt. It's such a shame because this used to be my favorite tea shop but the menu is unclear and the baristas don't seem thrilled to tell you about what's in the drinks.
FINAL EDIT
I want to thank y'all for including a menu that lists what's in the drinks. I really appreciate that and was thrilled to find that as an option the last time I went there. I will be back!”
“Went last night to pick up food before church. I may have their names wrong, but I believe it was Matthew and Aubrie or Andrea.
Very patient, sweet, and while making the sandwiches they stayed engaged in conversation sharing stories of their own. Their teamwork and customer engagement was amazing👏🏼 and of course the sandwiches were great!”
“Hands down my favorite local coffee shop! All locations- their Perdido coffee truck, their brick-and-mortar near the front gate of NAS, and especially their truck at the Perdido soccer fields for a much-needed energy boost on Saturdays lol, are incredible! 🙌 I literally recommend everything, their coffee is top-notch, their Red Bull fruit drinks are perfect for a pick-me-up, and their food hits the spot every time. The service is always fast, friendly, and genuinely caring. What really makes BAM special though is the people behind it. The owners have such an inspiring story, they sold their ranch in the Pacific Northwest and moved to Pensacola, following what they felt was a calling from God. You can feel that purpose and passion in the way they run their business. They’re humble, kind, and believers, which for me is a huge bonus. ☕️🙏 If you haven’t been to BAM yet, do yourself a favor and go, you won’t find a more welcoming, faith-filled, and delicious coffee spot around! 💙 #SupportLocal #FaithDrivenBusiness #BAMCoffee #PensacolaCoffee #PerdidoKey #NASPensacola #CoffeeWithPurpose”
“I honestly never leave reviews, but this place earned it. It was only their second day open, so my coworker and I walked in expecting chaos. We figured we’d be waiting forever or have to pick elsewhere to eat. Instead, the staff was genuinely kind, we got sat right away, and everything felt surprisingly smooth. And the food… I wasn’t ready. I’ve eaten at plenty of places during opening week, and nothing has come close. The bruschetta, the salads, our entrées… Every single thing was not only good but GREAT. I ordered the Parmesan chicken and asked if they could swap the red sauce for Alfredo, and they didn’t make a fuss at all. The chicken was cooked perfect, and I’m still dreaming about my meal. Needless to say, we went back to work telling everyone that lunch was a full 10/10. Pensacola really needed a spot like this on Nine Mile. Me, on the other hand… I fear I will be back sooner than I’d like to admit.”
“This is the best location!! I sent in an order for takeout. It is located in the building behind Garden, off Jefferson. $71 for chips & guac, crunchwrap, street tacos, and steak bowl, incl tip and taxes. There is so much food -- we will have at least 2 more meals. The truck is right next to an outdoor bar that I cannot wait to visit in person next girls night out.”
