M&P

M&P 3375 W County Hwy 30A, Santa Rosa Beach New American • $$$$

“Absolutely wondrous! We have the pleasure of such a unique experience with M&P. Due to a cancellation; we ended up becoming the only 2 for dinner for a birthday. They still hosted us with every bit of professionalism, execution & visible joy for what it is that they do. Every bite of food was not only creative; but illustrated that Chef truly understands texture & balance of flavor. The wine pairings were curated beautifully. The setting itself makes the entire experience seemingly magical! We had a phenomenal time, speak of it often and look forward to another wonderful experience.”

“What an incredible well run team of professionals! From the GM running the show at the door seating people, to every single person working the floor. The service was impeccable, the food was delicious. Chicken Carbonara, Chicken Parm, Fettuccine Alfredo, and Spaghetti Marinara. The garlic knots so good. Family of four with two kids and we loved every bot of the experience! Thank you Mimmos!”

“Where to even start?! This place is absolutely phenomenal. Let’s start with the vibes and the service- amazing. Step into the laid-back vibes of Down Island, and you are greeted by incredibly attentive and friendly waiters. They also have live music on Friday nights. All THREE times my husband and I went (on our five day vacation), we were greeted by the owner, Stefani. She is simply amazing- truly one of the friendliest people I have ever met. Kyle was a wonderful waiter and recommended my husband and I try the Cobia fish (which neither of us had tried before). It was delicious. We also had the oysters (so fresh), brunch (the bayou omelette and the cinnamon roll pancakes are fantastic), blueberry cobbler, and pineapple upside down cake. My mouth is watering just thinking about the desserts. It is evident that the ingredients used are fresh and that their food is truly home-made. I simply cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Thank you, Stefani, for you and your team making our vacation extra extra wonderful.”

Old Florida Fish House 33 Heron's Watch Way, Santa Rosa Beach Seafood • $$

“Stopped in for a drink and some oysters and found the restaurant quite charming. It was a nice afternoon and there is plenty of shady, covered outdoor as well as lots of indoor seating. Service was a little slow but at least two different servers checked on us.
Staff was friendly and knowledgable. The raw oysters tasted good but were not fresh shucked. I would recommend the grilled oysters they were delicious. Prices were good and overall just the atmosphere is worth a stop at this cool place.
Stopped in for lunch another day and the grouper sandwich was good but the service was, well not as good and it seemed to take way too long for a grouper sandwich. But it was cooked perfectly and delish. Definitely be going back, recommend sitting outside.

“Pazzo was recommended by Trish at the front desk of Embassy Suites and BOY are we glad she did. We didn’t make reservations (but should have) and had to sit at the pizza bar but it was perfect. It was warm and toasty on a bitterly cold night. My husband had the chicken parm and his only complaint was that there wasn’t enough chicken. My kid ordered off the adult menu and got ravioli with pesto and marinara and gave it FIVE BOOMS! I am not into pasta so I ordered the mussels and a Caesar salad and both were delicious. I highly recommend this as a spot to hit when in the Destin area.”

He worked with me on the menu, accommodating varying adult preferences and making sure our ages 9-15 kids were well fed too. We had so much fun watching him cook and talking that we never actually went to the dining room and instead chose to sit around the kitchen counter. The food was amazing, beautifully presented, and he made sure the kitchen was spotless before he left.

Service was fine, I felt no need to tip as they only take your order at the register. You pick it up and clean up. I would go back. However, I would bring my own bottle of water as a soda is $4, and juice is $5. Seems overpriced for drinks.”

“I typically find that a location's Google rating is inflated, but that's definitely not the case for Pickle's, at least from our experience. We visited on a weekday in December, few other people there, and sat at The Sandbar. Calvin, the bartender, took care and time in giving us suggestions and just chatting about life, the area, traveling, and more - he made us feel welcomed and he was genuinely interested in getting to know us. We didn't have any of their drinks, but the food was stellar -- we tried the Smash Burger and Mac Attack Burger, alongside some Sweet Heat Wings -- all at Calvin's suggestion. It was all a winner.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience at Pickle's and truly can't comprehend a 3.5 rating for this place, when a 4.3-4.5 is certainly more accurate.”

Meltdown On 30A 2235 E County Hwy 30A, Santa Rosa Beach Sandwich Shop • $

“Cute little Airstream in Seaside where we got a All American grilled cheese. One of the last shops to close down, the service was fine, and the grilled cheese was phenomenal. It took a while to be prepared, but after taking the first bite, I could tell why... They cook that grilled cheese low and slow, getting the exterior of the bread nice and crispy while leaving the inside light and fluffy. The cheese steamed up all gooey. My only regret is not getting a picture of the cheese pull.”

Gather Kitchen + Bar 34 Goldenrod Cir, Santa Rosa Beach Sushi Bar • $

“Gather is located in watercolor inn and has a wonderful atmosphere inside. Dress casual or dress up you’ll fit in! We went two separate times and had great waiters and service. The food was good, but a little on the salty/vinegar side. The blackened mahi fish sandwhich was good and the truffle fries with aioli were our absolute favorite thing there. The Asian inspired bowl was good, but quite salty. The strawberry shortcake dessert left something to be desired; the shortcake was two large dry biscuits (?) with very minimal whip cream and a few strawberries. For the price it was not worth it and better desserts around town. We also got a to-go snack around 8:30 pm one night which consisted of the garlic parm chicken wings and a ceasar wrap with fries- unfortunately these were not good. Perhaps because they were to-go? The wings were dried to a crisp we couldn’t even pull the skin off. The ceasar wrap lacked fresh greens, and the fries were.. just fries.Overall we’d dine in again in the future when we’re back but might try different menu items.”

“The food was really great! We drove 30 minutes to get here (the Thai place near our house didn’t look that appealing and we were really craving Thai). The drive was totally worth it! I got the pad see ew with pork and fried tofu and the crab fried rice. My fiancé order the pad woon sen. We will definitely be eating here again.”

Sunrise Coffee Co. 45 Town Center Loop, Santa Rosa Beach Coffee Shops • $

“Great lil coffee shop with wraps and smoothies. Charming atmosphere. I sat at a table across from the service area and watched them prepare drinks and food. The four staff were like coordinated dancers listening to customer orders and each performing their roles:Barista, flat-top cook, smoothie maker, wrap maker… and then they would shift seamlessly as multiple orders came in. Fun to watch an efficient super-friendly staff. The regular customers were very happy to be there. Had the egg, avocado toasted bagel w a tomato . Very yummy. Thank you.”

“We have been coming to Basmati's for over 20 years! As locals here on 30-A we have not found any other restaurant that compares to them! We usually eat our same favorites Asparagus/Crab soup, House Salad and Firecracker Grouper!!! Owners are always present working alongside their servers to make sure we have the best experience! Last night was husband's birthday and the Chocolate /Oreo Crust dessert with Asian Red vanilla bean ice cream topped it off! Great food, great atmosphere! (My birthday is in a few weeks!)”

They sat at the bar and were served by the bartender. They didn't get her name but were thrilled with her friendly, attentive demeanor. The entire event was donation based, and an envelope was provided for privacy. I am so thankful to AJ's for hosting this event and to the staff who generously work the event.
Thank you!!!”
