Mahi mahi with lumb crab meat mmmmmm... So fresh, so delicious! The fruity banana rum drink I ordered wasn't bad either. A little pricey but that's what you'd expect I suppose.

The servers know the cool stuff happening around, let them know you're from out of town and they'll tell you the must do/see stuff most tourists miss.

Rodney Walden

Great Place..The King Crab is awesome but it is expensive . It can get loud at night but its a favorite for my family when we are in Destin

Sara Borchert

Their hot crab dip is awesome. My favorite restaurant in Florida

Megan Sommer

Crab cakes are so good! Mahi Mahi is excellent... Snow crab legs are yummy. Crab claw appetizer was scrubish :(. Coleslaw is ok.

Christi Boyer

Great for lunch ! The grouper sandwich is amazing! Kids meals are served with a bucket and shovel - so fun!

Athena Samuel

Help keep the birds to a minimum and keep your table tidy. Leaving a big mess for the busers draws more birds and is bothersome to other diners.

Terera Gastone

All the food needed seasoning & if you're in a big group it's too loud . there is a locals discount but I think you have to ask. next time I'll eat outside because it was cold inside

Rebecca Davis

I had a bird poop in my drink....but the crab legs and crab cakes were divine!

Kristen Morrison

If you like Red Lobster quality seafood then you'll like it here. Way too overpriced for what you get. Service was good though.

Gina B

Quality of food since 2007 has dropped from a 7 to a 3....the fries taste old. Don't eat here unless you have no other options.

Robert Freeman

The food is not good and the service is super slow.

Mallory Allen

Worst service from all the bartenders who seem to hate their jobs. Food isn't bad, but the staff rooms the experience.

Kreutloops

The food here is terrible and overpriced. I hope this is not what tourists think is real sea food .

Carly Karas

Meh. Not thrilling, but good.

Pamela Calogero
