The service was good and fast. We had a variety of seafood from grouper to shrimp and everything was delicious. Although it was too chilly to sit outside I imagine it would have been great. This place is right on the beach with great views and you can even sit at a picnic table with your toes in the sand while you enjoy food and drinks. We will definitely go back.

Stopped here for the first time this evening with my wife before we head up back north. Although rustic and quaint, the service and people were great. We were encouraged by a local new friend in the local snowbirds club We met to have the grouper sandwich which was excellent and also an excellent value. The fries were fine as was the coleslaw and my wife had the fish tacos . We will definitely be back

Great place to watch the sunset and have dinner! Our service was fast and friendly. Large serving sizes and my sides included white rice and fresh veggies including squash and zucchini, with my fried gulf shrimp. They also offer a variety of milk shakes and frozen drinks. Cool location right on the beach! Worth checking out if you are in the area.

Weekend trip to Destin area and stumbled across this gem. Highly recommended for a perfect spot to catch an amazing sunset. Love the vibe with restaurant bar upstairs with inside and outside seating. Bottom section is a nice lively bar deck area with seating on the beach. Dinner was good and service was nice and friendly staff. My fish wrap was flavorful and simple. Fish meal was nice as well but mahi mahi as little overcooked and dry otherwise would have been a 5 star place. Nice 2 for 1 drinks and 10% off the meal during happy hours which is daily from 3-6 pm. Definitely a spot for good vibes, good food, and great sunsets!

Delicious breakfast place with a great view. The only dunk is they have "spread" on the table, not real butter. Home fries were delicious, bacon cooked perfectly ... chewy, not crunchy. Sasha was our waitress and she was very attentive.
