50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Santa Rosa Beach

“Went for the fourth of July with the family, and were luckily able to be seated, without having a reservation. Food was good, and our waiter was knowledgable of the items on the menu, allowing us each to find something we each really enjoyed. Water glasses were always full, and did not have to wait long for drinks or food. Great atmosphere for families, and a good spot for pictures with family and friends.“

“I absolutely Love Pecan Jacks ice cream. Matt, Ava and Barnes were super nice and so helpful! Their chocolates are Fabulous also! Make sure you stop in and say “Hi” to Matt!“

“Awesome Coffee Shop!!! - Locally owned and operated! The owners are friendly and very espresso savvy! 5 out of 5!!! Best coffee shoppe in the area by far!“

“Always a pleasure to dine there, and they have such a knack for gathering the most creative musicians.“

“Great food and view. Pricey though.“

“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.“

“Best Italian food in the area!“

“Love this staple of 30A! Always a great time! Fun & Great Food!“

“Had a fantastic time! Good food, excellent live music and the staff was great!“

“These frozen bananas so insanely good. The service is always great, and the people working there are kind. I have loved every flavor I’ve ever tried. This is definitely the place to stop if you like frozen bananas. But they have other frozen options too, so you don’t have to love bananas.

PS: it would be cool if you guys could make a banana pudding frozen banana version with those vanilla wafer cookies. It’s okay if you don’t“

“Great way to spend an afternoon. Meet new friends and celebrate with old friends. Absolutely the best beer on tap!“

“Best Falafel salad I ever had.“

“We stopped here early on a weekday afternoon while on vacation and we're glad we did. Lots of different varieties of beer to choose from, too many in one visit so we ordered a flight and they were all very good. I wish I were a local; if I'm ever in the area again I'll definitely come back.“

“Great Food and Service! Fried shrimp with tartar sauce...yummy! Tartar sauce was similar to remoulade sauce. Bread pudding was also very yummy! Atmosphere was nice, cool inside, and overlooked water.“

“Ya'll this is the best guesthouse/B&B type place on 30a. The location is amazing, the rooms and backyard garden are beautiful - and now they have Raw & Juicy doing the food! If you haven't been to Raw & Juicy check it out for fresh, healthy food options - at Hibiscus or at their other locations. Hibiscus Guesthouse has been a sponsor of our local educational outreach program for almost 10 years, donating time, space, and materials for our volunteers. These are good people. The Longleaf Writers Conference loves Hibiscus Guesthouse!“

“"The Official Beer of the Longleaf Writers Conference" - Grayton Beer Company is a real class organization, with an excellent product. The Beach Blonde is the favorite for our people, but the Rose Goes is also popular. Grayton Beer Company has been supporting our local educational outreach program for years now, and their generosity helps keep our thirsty volunteers lubricated and ready to work!“

“Everything on the menu was amazing.They also sell great hats and tee shirts.If you ever go to SeasideFL this is the best restaurant there.100% would recommend.“

“BRING BACK THE SEAFOOD ENCHILADAS!!!!!!! We drove 5.5 hrs straight to #Hobag in hopes of having the enchiladas. We were very disappointed to find they were no longer on the menu. The food we did order was good but nothing compares to the enchiladas!!! Bring them BACK !!!!“

“Best Grouper in all of 30a Fried and Blackened and the sides were great we ate there 5 times in the week we were there Definitely worth the wait and the Staff is super Cool A must try“

“It was our first time going, and we weren’t sure what to expect, but as we were pulling in the parking lot, a man rolled down his window and told us the food was awesome and to try the pork chops. We tried the simple starter. Bread, oil, and herbs. Simple but flavorful! Highly recommend I had the side summer salad and Krioyo pasta. The salad, no joke, was amazing. Full of color and flavor, might be the best salad I’ve ever eaten. The pasta was a generous serving, creamy and spicy with sausage and shrimp, full of flavor! My husband had the pork chops, cheese grits, and fries (I wish he got the collards instead of the fries, but it *was* his meal, so…). The cheese grits were a delicious surprise to me. So, so, so good. If we go back, I’m definitely ordering them (and the collards). The pork chops were, true to our parking lot critic’s word, awesome. I will definitely return. The atmosphere was laid back and wonderful, the food delicious, and the team members were fantastic. 10 out of 10 recommend! I’ve included pictures in the comments, because I love real life pics of food!“

“Amazing food as always. Christy was our server and she was very tentative and sweet. We look forward to returning very soon!!“

“Love the wine list as well as the extensive wine knowledge! Great place for hard to find wines as well.“

“The food was great very well seasoned and absolutely delicious. We had amazing service everyone was so kind! Dan was our server and he was wonderful and great with our 3 kids“

“We went to your establishment Monday night just to grab a bite to eat late and the lady that was bartending (can’t remember her name) was absolutely fabulous!!! She went above and beyond her job. She was so friendly and kind and went out of her way for us. On top of the food being wonderful!!! We have family down there so this place will be my go to when we are visiting!! Great food, great service and a beautiful place. Can’t wait until it’s warmer to experience the atmosphere. This place deserves an A++“

“I’m just in love with the best burger ☺️“

“The waygu beef frank is an absolutely masterful improvement. This is gourmet hot dog stuff now!!!“

“This is one of the best places to eat. Their gluten free menu is hands down the best. They make donuts fresh from scratch. The food is unbelievable, fish and tuna are fabulous. Lobster tacos are a winner. The service is exceptional. I can not say enough good things about it. Must visit and eat.“

“After a refreshing trail walk, we stopped here for a delightful brunch. Their famous biscuit breakfast (check out the pic!) never disappoints—fluffy, warm, and oh-so-satisfying. I’ve been here before, but this was my first time trying their bowl. It wasn’t quite right, so I asked for a replacement, and the staff promptly made it perfect. Love this place for its cozy vibe, prime location, and wallet-friendly prices in such an upscale area!“

“Had the barbecue beer cheese nachos and bloody Mary’s. We enjoyed it.“

“The best coffee in Seaside! Amavida Coffee have been generous supporters of our local educational outreach program, serving up delicious coffee and amazing pastries each morning for our large group. The croissants are especially good; I ate one every day for a week. The Longleaf Writers Conference loves Amavida Coffee!“

“Oh my goodness! I’m gluten free so I ordered the gluten free apple pie.. it was served piping hot and was SOO delicious! I’m going back for another one today!!

Dietary restrictions: Yes they have gluten free and I’m dairy free as well, so I asked them to leave off the cream and use a dairy free crepe! They will customize your order. That is the sign of homemade food by professionals!“

“I never do reviews, but this little bar & grill was awesome! The food was the best I’ve had in 30a. I’ve driven by it numerous times but we stopped today and so glad we did. Grilled shrimp tacos and the jalapeño margarita were wonderful. The service was top notch too!!“

“My littles are frequent fliers of this place! They LOVE the icees and flavor-blast ice cream the most! The fudge and turtles make great gifts (major perk they ship nationwide!). The staff is always friendly and kind. This is great spot to cool down after a hot beach day!“

“Biden gem in the Grayton Beach shops…Happy Hour Ousters 4-6 and discounted wines by the glass or bottle… they change varieties regularly…staff is so friendly…daily entree specials never disappoint…awesome vibe and atmosphere…highly recommend“

“Stopped in while visiting other shops in Seaside. Had a slice of the KeyLimePie, Dipped in Chocolate, on a Stick. Enough for all four of us to get a good taste. It was delicious.

The other items in the counter looks equally tasty. There was gelato and some awesome looking cookies.

Would come back again to try other treats.“

“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!)“

“The cinnamon rolls are real life !!“

“We love Macho Taco, the food is great and the staff is always wonderful! Highly recommend!“

“Bud & Alley's is the best waterfront dining in Seaside and likely all of 30A. The breakfast is particularly excellent, and the staff is attentive and kind. They fed our large group and everyone loved it. The Longleaf Writers Conference is a big fan of Bud & Alley's - a supporter of our local educational outreach program for ten years! (The rooftop bar for sunset can't be missed.)“

“We were in the area for a week and this was our favorite meal, service, and atmosphere! Laid back beach vibe with delicious food - just what we were looking for to end our week.“

“Great location. Good food!“
