I REALLY enjoyed the oysters, gator bites and fried green tomatoes. Entree was less than thrilling. But I would come back for sure for those oysters. AMAZING taste and they are BIG! Great value for your $$! You will not be disappointed with those oysters for sure. Get the gator bites Cajun. They were amazing.

The food was amazing. Flavorful! It’s a super busy place, looks like it’s very popular. The food was good so I can see why it’s so busy. 45 min wait, there was live music. Our server was not very attentive, but the food was great. Beautiful place.

Visiting from Texas and I 100% recommend this restaurant. The only thing was there was a long wait, buuuuut very worth it. There was one waitress for our table of 12 and she got drinks out quick and as soon as we ordered starters they were out in no time and hot and fresh. We all placed our food order and there was no long wait for our food as well. There was a singer playing guitar and playing good tunes. Thank you to all that made out visit a great one.

Out-of-towners, First time here, our friend recommended this place. Wife loved the Rockefeller oysters, food and service was great. It is a little loud in there (live music) and it was very busy and crammed due to how popular this local place is. We definitely recommend this place if you’re in thr area, especially if you’re into oysters.

The food was great my girlfriend loved her Lobster/Shrimp Grits she said best she ever had. I ordered the grouper basket with the Cajun potatoes I love the potatoes I would say the best potatoe salad I’ve ever had the fries were great just ate them with nothing tasty by themselves. The grouper came with a tartar sauce fried perfectly just melts in your mouth. Keep up the great work

Food was great!!! This place did not disappoint! The rangoon was EVERYTHING!! Best Ive ever tasted! The pepper jack cheese cubes were just delish! All their sauces were so good too. Definitely a go to place when we visit here again. Our waiter was Cassie (I believe that was her name) and she was amazing! We were a party of 6 and she kept us good! She was very attentive and on top of everything.

Kept hearing a lot about this place. Sadly wasn’t really impressed. Had the gator bites, soft shell crabs, shrimp creole redfish, and gumbo. The gator bites were pretty good. The gumbo was also good. The soft shell crabs didn’t really have anything in them. They were more like a crispy crab chip, honestly they were the worst soft shell crabs I’ve ever ate. Nothing inside. The scoop of Cajun potato salad was pretty flavorful, I enjoyed it. Except for 1/4 of it was just a big chunk of potato. The shrimp creole redfish was just okay. The sauce was kind of bland. It had a bitter hit in the sauce, it just needed something more to smooth it out in my opinion. Expensive for what you get however it’s comparable to the other tourist restaurants. And that’s just the vibe that it has. It’s has a touristy sports bar vibe. If you’re going there for a New Orleans type of vibe, it’s not. You’re just going to get an ordinary sports bar type of vibe. If you just want some okay food, with a touristy sports bar atmosphere then this is the place for you. However, in the restaurants defense it does seem to have a alot of good reviews, so what do I know. Just my personal experience.

I highly recommend for anyone stopping by to join the waitlist prior to coming here. The wait can be really long from 45 minutes to over an hour during dinner time. Luckily we were staying nearby so this feature was convenient for us. Once we got a text, we were on our way and the host will call you too.

James at the oyster bar as well as the other staff took great care of us . The food was delicious and the dessert was even better. The oysters have the best taste and never disappoint and the bread pudding with vanilla ice cream was to die for . This is a must stop if you are in the area .

First time trying this place. We ordered Shrimp poboy, fried green tomatoes, crab balls, grilled fish, oyster sampler, Gumbo, grilled cheese for kids and Fried Cheescake. Everything was so delicious. The only thing though was the grilled fish i ordered was salty like really salty I had to squeeze a whole lemon to eat it. We had to drive 20 minutes from the resort we were staying at but it was worth the drive for sure. We were looking for a Cajun food experience and it did not disappoint. When we visit Panama Beach again we will for sure be back
