Restaurants near Shalimar

“Healthy made to order food!!”

“I am a regular at the Twisted Grape. I frequent at least 3 times a week. I have never experienced short of amazing! The owners are great, not to mention the AMAZING STAFF! If you ever had a concern or complaint, if you would have only addressed it with them they would have taken care of it immediately!

Barbara was amazing as usual! I missed seeing you today…Morgan!”

“I love there monthly menu choices. Right now, the Jamie is delicious! My husband also enjoyed the Red Bull with Blue Raspberry. The croissant with Raspeberry and Cream Cheese was yummy, too. I love Deb's!”

“ABSOLUTELY PERFECT AND SO DELICIOUS! My son is obsessed with the show Trash Truck but hard to find! I knew these cakes were delicious so I stopped in to order a small round cake and cupcakes. I told her just to do shades of green or blue cause I knew it would be delicious so just wanted the round for the topper I ordered. She told me she would check the show out and I sent her pics of the topper. She was super helpful on what to order! Again I did not really expect a very detailed cake just matching colors because I picked her mostly for taste. Best frosting I have ever had!! You guys…I went to pick up the cake and when she opened the box to show I had tears in my eyes. Wayyyy more than I expected and was absolutely perfect! Could not recommended more!!”

“Food is always Too of the Line, but I tell you if this isn’t some of the “WORST” Customer Service I have ever seen!!! The Lady is alright sometimes, but the Old Guy there has the Attitude from hell and always act like he is doing you a Favor! He won’t answer the phone, sends you to another phone that is just VM. Then eventually calls you back and says.. you call Yoyos’? Which we call cause we are in the area, but he always calls back when out of area. Please stay home guy if you don’t like being in the truck! You are the “Sore spot” of this place! On his PTO day… 5 stars!!!”

“Normally enjoy Cheers, last visit was ruined by a boisterous and profane group of youngsters at the bar. Families were in the restaurant and the group particularly one especially poorly behaved young man was shouting profanities while watching football. I advised them to watch their language causing the one individual to become confrontational. My wife asked our waiter what could be done and he offered no solution. This one incident does not reflect my normal experience at Cheers and the food and drink is always good.”

“beef stroganoff and traditional gyros were great, also tried all four sauces with the pita, my favorite was the hummus! theresa hooked us up with samples of the dips, a couple salads and a complimentary dessert since it was our first time! will definitely be back, a great spot near fort walton!”

““I came during dinner time, and my server was really attentive and welcoming. The atmosphere was nice and cozy, and the food came out quickly and hot. I definitely recommend this place!””

“Hands down best tacos! I love their asada tacos! I’m from Texas so it’s nice to eat some good tacos and burritos that remind me of home! The owners take great care of their truck and their food. If you’re feeling like tacos go here! Highly recommend!”

“My mom and I went into the WH Shalimar on Saturday(8/10). It’s our favorite, but that team was absolutely AMAZING! They were helpful, polite, and working together. So……WH Shalimar, FL keep doing what you’re doing, it’s working.”

“We finally found our go to Mexican restaurant! Our dinner was hot, fresh and fast. Queso and salsa was great. Toddler had the basic cheese quesadilla with rice and beans. I had the Pollo Bandito which was very good. The chicken and mushrooms were flavorful and cooked perfectly. Hubby had the Steak Fiesta Burrito he said it was amazing and full of flavor. Our margaritas were great too and bigger than I was expecting.”

“6 people in our party. All the orders were correct. We dined in. The tables were clean. The decor neat and complete. The food delicious. I will stop there again when in the area.”

“i love sonic so much!!!! the corndogs here are the BEST! and the diet dr. pepper made dirty! joslyn is the BEST worker!!!! love that girl 10/10 recommend this sonic”

“Have been here several times over the years, and the food is always fresh! I bring my granddaughter and her friends to this one, since it has a nice, clean playroom. It’s better to come whenever it’s not rush hour, the drive through is always busy. Then you don’t have to wait as long for your food. The kiosks were down, but the cashier on the resister was helpful. She even made sure that our ice cream cone was in a cup, as I requested! I would have given a 5 star for service, but they always seem short staffed, which makes it take longer.”

“We visited Fort Walton for the first time and I had already planned to visit this restaurant. I was so excited because of what I saw on the internet. It absolutely did not disappoint. We enjoyed the nachos & mixed drinks. The scavenger hunt was so much fun with my husband and 3 year old and the alligator show was so educational. We will definitely go back!! Oh, and we met “Henry” the 1 year old baby gator that we took a photo with!”

“Best pizza in Destin and it’s not even close”

“My family and I LOVED Stewby’s! Definitely our favorite restaurant so far on our vacation! My husband got shrimp, I got the fried grouper, and our three kids all got the chicken fingers. Everything was amazing! Best fries anywhere! Also amazing desserts - banana pudding and key lime pie are delicious!! Amazing service from Audrey and the entire team! Highly recommend! 🫶🏽🤍”

“We try to visit McGuire’s of Destin whenever we’re close. Always enjoy. Michael Brandon was our server this time and was wonderful.”

“We visited the area for the first time in nearly two years last week. We were so happy to see Nicole still behind the bar! Not only did she recognize us out-of-towners, but even remembered all our names! Drinks are great, food is always stellar, and atmosphere is perfect. Can’t wait to come back, hopefully much sooner than later!”

“Omgoodness. This place is so well staffed. The food is to die for. The owners are super personable and have made such a lovely experience. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“I’m actually at the Valparaiso restaurant. I’m here because of a would you like us on my EXND page. Jeffrey M. Lane this is the Wednesday lunch spot. First impressions is clean and bright. I like that it’s not cluttered, great space to sit and eat. The menu is perfect, not too much not too little. Was paying for the food and asked about tips, was told we don’t accept tips. My meal was $19.87, so I got burger, fries and a drink. SO LETS GET TO THE MEAT AND POTATOES 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. There are no freezers to store food, all veggie’s are cut fresh daily as well as all burgers made daily. The drink was un sweet tea. Delicious, the small fries was a huge portion, for this fat guy there was a lot(bravo), now to the burger. Smoked Cheddar Bacon Burger( I’m like Homer Simpson in a doughnut shop) the burger was a fantastic messy and full of fresh onions, mayo. Do not be in a suit and tie for this lol. I devoured that tasty burger, while listening to 50-60’s music. Catherine was at the register and explained everything, very friendly employees. This is a must place to go to. They have two locations and Fridays are open until 7:30 I believe. They are only open 10-2 pm in the Valparaiso location. This is a business I proudly support. So if you are in lower Okaloosa County drop by and enjoy this delicious burger with a tasty beverage (in my Pulp Fiction Voice). DEFINITELY 5 STARS IN THIS”

“I recently dined with friends at the Marina Cafe. All the meals were delicious. We ordered the Sampler Dessert. It included multiple desserts that were all yummy. Cody was our waiter. He provided excellent service and made excellent recommendations. I would highly recommend dinner at the Marina Cafe.”

“Louisiana here, all restaurants along the beach had a 3+ hour wait. So we decided to go across more in the town and try something new. No wait just walked in a very classy inside. We have never had Korean BBQ, everything we ate and drank was phenomenal. My Louisiana taste buds were very pleased! I would definitely come back on my next Florida stay if I am in the area.”

“Staff - 5 stars Iced Coffee - 5 stars Berry Burrata Toast - 5 stars Atmosphere - 5 stars Cozy spot in the middle of the chaos of Destin. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! The iced coffee they recommended was so good. Indoor / Outdoor seating so you can enjoy every "season" Destin has to offer. I can't wait to go back and try some of their lunch items. 100% recommend next time you're in the area.”

“This place is a MUST if you go to Destin. Our daughter moved there last year and introduced us to them and it is a staple of our visits now. The two guys working behind the counter are very friendly, and always playing around and teasing. It’s apparent they love their work and their customer service is top notch. All of the employees there are friendly and helpful! And, hands down…..the best ice cream!!”

“Went to Fish-On in Destin today and had an awesome experience. The manager and chef both came out and introduced themselves, which you don’t see much anymore. We learned they’re one of only three restaurants in Destin serving locally caught seafood that’s truly fresh — never frozen — and you can taste the difference. The chef has been on Hell’s Kitchen twice, and you can tell he takes real pride in what he puts on the plate. Everything we ordered was excellent, and the prices were surprisingly fair for the quality you’re getting. If you’re in Destin and want something legit, this place is a hidden gem. Highly recommend.”

“Great Italy like experience. Food is served hot and taste amazing. There is a large selection of food with a kids menu that has real food! Service is good and very family friendly.”

“Aahhhmazzinggg!!!! food smoked brisket tacos… the smoke is there for sure not just a hint… the carnitas tacos had great flavor as well the slaw that came with them was so tasty just enough vinegar to balance the richness of the meats… bonus got a complementary mango paleta… y’all definitely worth it”

“We had the sampler with Mac and cheese and baked beans. It was so good!! The employees were so sweet, personable and made us feel welcome. I HIGHLY recommend papa’s smokehouse.”
