My wife had coconut crusted grouper, I had parmesan crusted grouper. They were priced similarly, but one was filled the plate with grouper, asparagus, rice with crab, and lettuce. The other was grouper on a spoonful of rice. There was no comparison. We were there with another couple who had the same, and their plates were the same as ours.
We enjoyed our bread (a small slice each) and asked for more bread... which costs $2 per slice!
The more generous serving of parmesan grouper was a good meal, only somewhat overpriced. The coconut grouper was a huge disappointment in taste, and was as greatly overpriced as the bread.
Summary: overall the food was OK but you can get better for much less.

I don't know if you can give an establishment zero stars, but I am going to try. Unfortunately, we never got a seat or a meal. I was told upon entry that my service dog was not allowed inside. When I explained he was a SERVICE DOG, the young lady got her manager who then told me she would provide a table on the porch for me. It was a very cold and windy evening. We didn't want to cause a scene, so we left. Not sure how far my complaining might go. DOJ investigates complaints that violate individual's rights regarding disabilities and service dogs. This is not the kind of business I like to support.... However, The Gibson Inn in Apalachicola could not have been more welcoming.

Food is great but this review is because New Year’s Eve was horrible there this past year 24-25. Could not hear a word from anyone at the table without yelling at each other all because they thought bringing in a DJ to blast music would be a good idea. Yeah, the DJ is outside, but when you set him right up next to the door leading outside while keeping the doors open the music travels back inside. Went there the previous year 23-24 and had a completely different experience and was outstanding. Absolute let down.

Wonderful place for a high-end dining experience in Port St Joe. Staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Food was excellent and plentiful! Beautiful sunset location with great drinks and live music. Would definitely eat here again on future visits to the area!

I’m a bit of a foodie and I love to cook so I consider myself a tough customer. The meal was excellent, best crab cake I have ever had and that’s no exaggeration. It had more crab meat than bread crumbs. The lobster bisque was great, the made in house blue cheese dressing was the best I have eaten and would love the recipe. My main entree of parmigiana encrusted sea bass was
impressive. Every time I visit this area I will have reservations at this restaurant. They covered everything well from the service, atmosphere and food, if you haven’t been you need to go.

The food and atmosphere is excellent. Note that the outdoor porch is beautiful, but it is north florida and subject to current weather and wind conditions. At about $60 a plate it is not cheap, but it is worth a visit.

The food was good but we had a reservation and were forced to wait over 30 minutes and then seated on the deck when we specifically asked to be seated inside. I don’t expect to spend $500 for a table and be treated like that. Will not return. The manager was very unfriendly and unhelpful.

After we received our bill we realized we were charged $9 for bread because the first serving had 4 pieces and there was 6 of us. We requested each person have one piece but was charged $9. That is ridiculous. Also, we were told there was no way to split our bill. One person had to pay the full amount and the rest of us had to scramble for cash. What kind of restaurant can’t give each person his/her own bill? Very disappointed.
