Restaurants near Seaside

“We went here for our anniversary and the food and drinks were amazing! Our bartender/server Zack was great!!”

“Great food, great service!”

“We had a 6pm reservation and were greeted happily by the hostess and were sat at our table promptly. The atmosphere was beautiful. We ordered one drink, something with pear, that was so refreshing and delicious. My husband’s NY Strip was cooked to perfection, and my stuffed chicken dish was excellent. The BRUSSELS!!! Very good. Our service was phenomenal, and the attention of the staff (never once did we need a water refill, never once was there a dirty dish on our table) was superb. Highly recommended for an elevated dining experience!”

“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!”

“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.”

“Deb was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of us and had some awesome beer recommendations. She introduced us to Ghost in the Machine Double Hazy IPA and wow… it was one of the best beers I’ve ever tried. You can really tell she knows her stuff and loves what she does. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed, the service was spot on, and Deb honestly made the whole experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Had a birthday dinner for my wife here last weekend for a party of about 8 and the service was fantastic and the food delivered! Highly recommend!”

“Love their Seltzies and the chill vibe - and lots of fun events hosted there. Cant wait to go back.”

“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.”

“Great food and view. Pricey though.”

“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!”

“I have eaten here several times since discovering it. Vibe is eclectic and funky. Food is amazing! Service has always been good. Key lime pie is on point also. I think about going back all the time! It is just an expensive night out (because tourist area) but it is worth it every time I do !”

“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!”

“This is by far the best experience I have ever had in any restaurant in the panhandle of Florida. Exquisite dishes, decor and atmosphere. Customer service is outstanding and it is the benchmark in the hospitality industry. I love this place and it is my all time favorite.”

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

“We celebrated our daughter’s 12th birthday dinner here and it was fabulous. Stormie was our server and she was incredibly helpful not only with dinner but with other things we asked about. She was a blessing to say the least.”

“The best Thai food our family has eaten! Red curry was delicious! Child chicken Pad Thai absolutely amazing! Fried rice was perfect! Spring rolls 10/10! It’s a must if you are at the beach! Portion sizes are huge too! We have enough for everyone to have lunch tomorrow with leftovers.”

“Go once a week. My favorite restaurant.”

“This place is a gem on 30A & I always love coming and getting buffalo wings with lemon pepper sprinkled on them. They are always piping hot and served with delicious crinkle fries and a smile. Support this amazing veteran-owned local restaurant!!”

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

“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.”

“To start the restaurant’s location is located down a beautiful street in Rosemary beach. The food was fantastic! Fresh catch feature of snapper and grits, shrimp enfuego, blue crab Rangoon, crab cakes, and the chocolate chip cookie with a whipped espresso cream! The food was extremely fast & our waiter was even better. If you are in the area it’s a must try restaurant.”

“Great pub with fun atmosphere and delicious food. Seafood and burgers were yum! David was our server. He had good recommendations, great attitude and fast service. I had the redfish with a Bloody Mary. Great lunch to end our vacation! We will definitely return.”

“Great spot! Crispy duck was sooo good! Panang curry also delicious. Really friendly staff.”

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

“Absolutely amazing! 10 ⭐️!!! I’ve never had a food that has been stuck in my mind before. The Shrimp Tacos were the best I’ve ever had in my life. I’m from Matagorda Texas which is a coastal city. Needless to say I’ve had a ton of shrimp tacos in my life and these weren’t even close to being in the same sentence as the others. Above and beyond for sure. Definitely in a league of their own here in Florida. Not to mention the salad that came with it was no doubt the best salad I’ve ever had. The flavor combinations was unlike anything I’ve ever had. Not sure what the dressing was but it was absolutely to die for. These tacos and salad will be on my last meal death bed meal list. Keep up the good work. Did I mention. I’ve never written a review before and these tacos brought it out in me. Touché!!!”

“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.”

“Awesome pizza!!! Quick service and great staff.”

“Loved the food, service and ambiance. One of 30A’s best dining experiences.”
