13 Best Sushi Bars near Santa Rosa Beach

“delicious! and chef Thomas was fantastic, request him!“

“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.“

“Go once a week. My favorite restaurant.“

“The food was overall great, but the evening started on a stressful note. We arrived for our 8:45 PM reservation only to be told by the hostess that we had until 9:05 PM to order before the kitchen closed. Being rushed the second you walk in is never ideal and this policy should really be posted on the reservation site. However, our experience was completely turned around by our waiter. Seeing our concern, he told us not to worry and encouraged us to take our time. His professionalism was incredibly relieving and allowed us to actually enjoy the meal. Kudos to him for providing excellent hospitality when the initial greeting fell short!“

“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 87 Central team handled the reception for our Seaside Prize weekend. What an elegant evening in the heart of Seaside. Thank you, Jim Shirley and team for making this night extra special.“

“Thai food is my favorite cuisine. I've tried all sorts of Thai food, all over the country. Thai Elephant has by far the best food out of every single one I've ever tried. My wife and I love their Pad Thai and Fried Rice. It's legendary here, awesome vibes, excellent service, super friendly 20/10 ❤️“

“We dined twice yesterday at AJ’s! For lunch we had the Navy bean and ham soup and also a cup of gumbo. Man it was good! For dinner we had oyster bar happy hour (about $12 per dozen raw). The prime rib was discounted too and they were both great! My compliments to both the chef and the oyster shucker!!“

“Best sushi and service in Destin! Great ambiance. Will recommend.“

“My family ate here Friday night and it was wonderful. We had outstanding service from all the staff, but especially our server Mackenzie. Hands down the best Sushi we have ever eaten and yummy filets cooked to perfection. Our little girl loved her kids quesadillas too. Great experience, lovely view, top notch service and incredible food. We will be back the next time we’re in Miramar Beach! Do yourself a favor and give them a try.“

“Food was delicious 😋🐢 definitely recommend“

“My wife was invited to a conference and I was able to tag along for some R&R at a great resort. One of our best meals was at the Sushi Bar in the Hilton Resort. We sat at the Sushi Bar (where the chefs make the sushi). The chefs and wait staff were so friendly and answered many questions and shared some jokes as well. If you get the chance don’t miss this Sushi bar. The Edamame was so good, Nigiri, Salmon and Tuna so fresh we had a fun time.“

“Great bartenders. Feels like a friendly neighborhood bar“
