“Social Hour (4-6) at Fleming’s in Grand Boulevard, is a wonderful place to go if you’re looking for a place to meet friend for cocktails and delicious appetizers (Bite’s). We recently met friends for a birthday celebration and had an excellent experience. We were greeted by Laura Mason, the manager, and were seated at a comfortable table, perfect for visiting. Tara, our server, was cheerful and very attentive. The staff did an excellent job making our experience very positive. We will definitely be back!”

“We had such a fun time at Fudpucker’s! My son absolutely loved the gator interactions—it was definitely the highlight of our visit. Everything was exciting and super engaging for kids. The food was great too—everything we ordered was delicious and made the whole experience even better. Emily, the photographer, was amazing! She was so kind, knew exactly what she was doing, and worked quickly while still capturing great moments. We really appreciated how smooth and easy she made everything. Overall, such a memorable and family-friendly place. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Great food with excellent service. Kristen exceeded all service expectations. We will be back very soon. Best breakfast in town.”

“Don’t let the plain exterior fool you, this place is dope. Julianne greeted us with a smile and was an excellent host/server. They have Gluten free garlic cheesy bread as well as gluten free pizza crust that is fantastic. Had a couple of the specialty pizzas and am in heaven. Run, don’t walk to Merlins!”

“10/10 recommend Mimmos 30A! Be sure to visit the bar with Donte — he was fabulous and truly a GREAT bartender. We’re locals and dine at Mimmos 30A and Destin regularly, but the server can really make all the difference. Thank you, Donte, for making it such a great night!”

“I can't say enough great things about Commelfo. From the first time I went there a few years ago with friends I was enamored with the food, cocktails and atmosphere. They have not disappointed since! I live 5 minutes away and it has become my local go to for Breakfast/Brunch/Lunch and Dinner. There is nothing there I have had that isn't delicious. Their private wine dinners and parties are amazing... from the Mob Party to the Retro Party! I am already planning my costume for this year's retro party on 10/27/24... can't wait! The staff there is wonderful!”

“My team and I have had the opportunity to dine at Dat Burrito Place multiple times over the past month, and each visit was a delightful experience from start to finish. I can confidently say that their commitment to friendly and prompt service is unmatched. From hearty burritos and flavorful rolled quesadillas to mouthwatering Mexican street corn, rich and savory birria, and light and crispy fish tacos, there's something to please every palate on their menu. Treat yourself and support local by giving Dat Burrito a try!”

“Hands down one of the best lunches we’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and honestly intoxicating—in the best way. From the hostess to our server, the chef, and even the other diners, everyone was so friendly and made us feel right at home. The staff truly went above and beyond. The drinks were great, and the key lime shrimp is a 10/10—highly recommend. My husband had the fried snapper sandwich and it was amazing. I ordered the Fall Grouper, and I can’t even put into words how good it was. Perfect flavor, cooked flawlessly… I’ve been thinking about it since we left 😂 We shared our compliments with the staff, and Chef Caleb even came out to talk to us personally, which made the experience even more special. You don’t get service and food like this just anywhere—especially at lunch. We’ll absolutely be back!”

“We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely spectacular — everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish exceeded our expectations.

The service was very, very good, and Lucy made our experience even more special. She is incredibly kind, very beautiful, and extremely attentive. She made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us with such warmth and professionalism. Her positive attitude truly stands out.”

“i love Loren as a Server, she took care of me and my family and is a really nice person ... if you go there ask for Loren you won't regret it”

“Tiffany is an amazing server she recommended lemon blueberry mimosas which were fabulous, and also recommended the beignets. She made our first visit at another broken egg very good. Thank you Tiffany. We will definitely be back before we leave Destin”

“Fine pizza with quick service. Nice staff. Reasonable prices. Best in Miramar!”

“We have been to Bijoux over the last few years and each time has been truly amazing! The food has never disappointed and the service is wonderful (we really like Lisa as our server). The wine selection is not huge but does have very nice options for any occasion. Great appetizers (Crab Beignets are a favorite) and their Filet Mignon is the best we have found in South Walton. Last evening my wife and I split the 20oz Cowboy Ribeye (med. rare +) and it was so good! They also make their own desserts and we usually get the Cheesecake (last night’s was Orange Marscapone) and a couple of scoops of sorbet(so good!). Can’t wait to go back again.”

“Loved the service ! Theo was amazing!”

“Our dining experience at Tuscany Italian Bistro was exceptional. Great food, great atmosphere, and great service. The fettuccini Alfredo, lobster ravioli, and bolognese was the best my friends and I had ever tasted. We highly recommend this restaurant to any and all who visit the area. James, Carol, Christy and Colleen.”

“After hearing so many great things about this place, I finally made it out here to try it for myself. The atmosphere was beautiful and elegant. Brandon our server was amazing. The way Brandon described the specials and the menu items, he made it sound like it was going to be the best meal of my life. The food was spectacular so HUGE kudos to the chef. You are doing everything perfect. Atmosphere is 10 out of 10, service is a 100 out of 10 and the food was a 10 out of 10. I will definitely be back and thank you for the amazing dining experience.”

“This place is unexpectedly amazing. The food is some of the best food I have ever found in the entire area. You can tell the owner, or whoever comes up with the menu, puts a lot of care, thinking, and thought into how they craft their food. The service was impeccable. The location looks like just your average sandwich shop, but the food hits way above the belt.”

“My Favorite restaurant on the Emerald Coast. I have eaten there three times in the last 10 days. Have always very thoroughly enjoyed my meals and the service. Can only highly recommend”

“A fantastic experience here with an awesome server too!! The food is obviously made with love 💕 If you’re wanting a unique experience definitely check them out!! That key lime pie is a Must too!! 🍋‍🟩”

“We’ve been here several times during the evening hours. But our first time experience at lunch was a bit disappointing. My food came out but my wife’s calzone came much later. Our waiter was hardly checking on us for refills and never apologized or even tell us the food would come out late. (Plus no bread or their special oil.) I know it was lunch, but my highlight was the bread. I don’t know if we will come for lunch for a while, but we will give it a chance for evenings. I even wrote a note on the receipt and left my phone#. But as yet have I received a call.”

“The she crab soup here is awesome! We highly recommend it!”
