My favorite place to dine in Pensacola!! I love everything here. The tempura asparagus are a must have, the crab cakes, the shrimp eggrolls, any time they have a beef special tapa I order it. I’ve never been disappointed. Their bbq shrimp is delicious and their gooey Spanish chocolate cake with basil ice cream is not to be missed. Service is also impeccable. It gets a little loud inside, but I’ll deal with it, it’s that good!
I'll be honest, when I read the menu online, I thought it looked disjointed. I was confused... ignorant even. I had relatively low expectations going in, and I was blown away by just about everything here. Our server, CJ, was incredible. He described things so well, he could've sold me a whole cow. He knew the menu inside and out and built a solid rapport with all of his tables. He was funny and honest and seriously on top of his game. We were well cared for. The food was great. I didn't understand the vision for the menu before, but Global Grill enlightened me. We only got tapas: the mushroom salad, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, calamari, tuna steaks, and crab cake. We also got their white chocolate & Baileys crème brûlée. The stand out items were the asparagus, Brussels sprouts, tuna steaks, and creme brûlée. This is a really great date night spot. I'm a sucker for tapas; I think they're so romantic. I am considering making my bf (pictured) take me here for our anniversary.

Dined here last night on fairly short notice. The hostess was able to accommodate us. Eric was our server and gave us some of the best service we’ve ever had at a restaurant. Food was creative and amazing!!

After months of recommendations, we finally went for our first time tonight. The space is smallish and feels a bit crowded in areas. Of course, we were in the narrow seating area at the front of the restaurant. The view for the person facing the sidewalk can be nice with the lights along the street, but for the person facing the hostess, not so much. She was on her phone quite a bit.We enjoyed the Southwestern Shrimp Eggroll. My husband got the Triple Threat Seafood platter(?) which he really liked, but felt was pricey for a grouper filet layered with crabmeat and a soft shell crab. I got the filet cooked medium well. It came charred on the outside, which I like but others may not. Although the steak tasted good, it was not tender as I’ve come to expect of a filet. The sauce was very salty and the broccoli stalks were more raw than al dente.We had planned to have carrot cake for dessert, but after waiting 15 minutes for our waiter to come back, we decided to pass. Clearly not a glowing recommendation, but both the restaurant and bar were full and it seemed everybody knew everybody else.

In Navarre for 7 weeks. Dined here 1/31/24 & 2/27/24. Worth every mile & dollar! One of finest—comparable to the famous multi-sited Capital Grille!FROM the first call to Courtney, who made everything perfect for us and our friend who flew in, by rearranging our reservation on a short notice TO the excellent server, Paige, the dining experience was superb. So, we repeated the experience with Courtney & Paige, and again a “5.” We recommended to 4 friends who went and were ready to return the next day.It’s a long time until January 2025, but we will be at the Global Grill then.
Every year, my son wants to go here for his birthday dinner. I think this year will be our 4th year. It used to be the Melting Pot, but he loves the Global Grill's food so much, our tradition has changed.

Service is always top notch. It can be a little loud. Good amount of seating and you aren't squeezed in. Wine selection has a great variety. I can't say enough about the food. I've been many times and have never had anything unappetizing. Plenty of parking out back Bathrooms: clean Environment: clean and well decorated Cost: $$$ Service: stellar Bar area: great selection

I had the most amazing experience at this restaurant. The ambiance was so beautiful and the service and food were top-notch! Eric, our server was very informative and was able to give us suggestions on the food and drinks. He made us feel welcomed, which made my birthday even more special!

Global Grill is my favorite “fancy” place in town. My girlfriend and I recently went for our anniversary and it was such a good experience. When we wanted to move from the room where the large parties were (it was very noisy) they happily moved us somewhere closer to the bar.The tapas are the best part, I’d even recommend just getting the tapas, as I think they’re more worth it than the entrees.The tuna cubes are probably the best raw tuna I’ve had in Pensacola. The yellowfin tuna is so so good (especially with that sweet potato hay) and the tempura fried asparagus is to die for.Dietary restrictions: Great gluten free options, if you need those.
Global grill has to be the best restaurant in the panhandle (imo).You can definitely tell this is a chef owned restaurant. As someone who has worked BOH in many kitchens over the last 8 years, it is evident in every bite that the cooks/chefs in the global grill kitchen are extremely talented and care about quality. Everything we ate was so delicious and beautifully plated. This is my new favorite place to eat, I’m sad that I’m just now trying this restaurant for the first time. Mark/Marc delivered spectacular and attentive service as well. There’s not a single bad thing on the menu. The drinks are stellar too, the roman mule is one of the best drinks I’ve ever had!! Well worth every penny.
10 out of 10! The service and atmosphere were amazing but the food stole the show. We had the lamb lollipops, Tempura Asparagus, and the Gooey Spanish chocolate cake with basil ice cream. Absolutely delicious! I will definitely be back soon.
Went here for dinner and everything was AMAZING! The ambiance here is classy. I love how the menu is diverse in flavors. I literally have nothing negative to say about this place. We ordered a boat load of appetizers for the table of 10. My entree was the potato crusted fish (grouper) and the tuna skewers were my favorite. For my drink, I chose the French 613 which was a unique twist of the French75. I took a slice of cheesecake to go because why not. This place does a really good job at satisfying your taste buds while providing quality service. I am overly satisfied and cannot wait to return in the future. THANK YOU, Chef Frank Taylor and the rest of the Global Grill team!!

Descent place. Don’t order mix drinks, bartender of “20 years” couldn’t handle them. Stick with their good wine selection, hard to mess that up.
