Food was delicious! I had breakfast. Crispy bacon and wonderful grits…read more Friends got oysters - 5 star and garlic fries were the bomb. Also the burger was very good. Highly recommend! Our waitress was Charity and she was so helpful and great!!!

I've been to this restaurant several times for both dine in and take out and have usually been…read morepretty happy with the food and service. Today, however, they missed the mark and I feel compelled to provide some constructive criticism, as I wouldn't want to see this otherwise good restaurant fail. I had the Caprese Sandwich with Grilled Chicken + Caesar Salad and sparkling water, which cost me $40 with the tip. Rather pricey for a lunch, but it's Friday and I felt like treating myself, so no big deal. Except the food was rather underwhelming, and unnecessarily so. It felt as if they had the right idea and the right ingredients but failed pretty miserably in the execution. First, the sandwich. I picked it up and drove straight to work (5 min drive), which apparently was enough time for the bread to become completely saturated with water from the burrata cheese, to the point where it looked and had the texture of soggy bread pudding and it was entirely impossible to hold it together. I had to eat it with a fork, which was inconvenient and disappointing. This seems like a very obvious recipe flaw, as the burrata has high moisture content and needs to be coupled with a more sturdy bread, such as a focaccia. Overall, I'd give it 1/5 for presentation. Moving onto the chicken. It was cooked very well and the taste was there, but it looked extremely unappealing, as it was almost entirely BLACK and not because it was burned, but because it was just fully covered in charcoal specks, presumably from the grill, which perhaps hadn't been cleaned in a while. I specifically asked for the grilled and NOT blackened chicken, so I was very confused and initially thought that they just cooked it the wrong way, but upon closer inspection, it became obvious to me the black specks were not seasoning but plain charcoal residue. To make matters worse, these specks had contaminated all the other ingredients as well, which I found pretty gross. It certainly did not meet basic expectations, especially for the price point. I'd give it 2/5, because it was edible and the chicken was otherwise well cooked and flavored, even if a bit gross to look at. Additionally, both the sandwich and side salad were heavily drenched in sauce/dressing. The l Caesar salad, which was very small (about the size of a small cup of soup), had very few pierces of lettuce mixed in with a disproportionately large amount of dressing and cheese, which was not only very overpowering but it made the salad really soggy. It basically felt like eating plain Caesar dressing. 2/5 because the dressing tasted good, but there was simply too much of it, and since it was already mixed in, I couldn't fix it in any way. I ended up not eating it. I hope the owners can see this and pass it onto their chefs/cooks, as I've met them and I know they're very sweet and caring people. Everyone can have a bad day, and I'm hoping this was just a one-off, and everything will be great again next time.

Had lunch here and tried a few menu items. I liked the smoothies, avocado toast and tofu scramble,…read morethe açaí bowl was ok but the açaí itself didn't have much flavor. The everything cookie and matcha cheesecake were really good. All the staff were super nice and accommodating, and I enjoyed the live music on Sunday. Will be back!

Cafe Single Fin: Great Concept, Average Plate…read more Cafe Single Fin is one of those places where the experience starts before you even find the restaurant. I drove around the block several times looking for it. Turns out, the restaurant is tucked inside a surf and skateboard shop. Once I finally figured that out, I walked in and immediately knew this wasn't going to be your average Pensacola lunch. The cafe is basically the centerpiece of the shop, surrounded by some seriously interesting vibes. I was greeted by scream-o music, which eventually segued into coffeehouse music and then some lighter indie stuff. Quite the musical journey. I half expected the playlist to ask me to pick a lane. What drew me in was the menu. Clean, interesting and exactly the kind of thing that makes you think, OK, these people might be onto something. I went with the blackened mahi tacos with rice and beans. And this is where things got a little less interesting. The food was fresh. The presentation was nice. Unfortunately, the flavor never really showed up for work. The mahi was supposed to be blackened, but I'm not convinced the blackening seasoning actually made it from the kitchen to the plate. The beans were also undercooked and under-seasoned. Nothing was bad, exactly. It just lacked the punch that the menu had promised. And that's the frustrating part. There is clearly a cool concept here, and the menu has enough personality to make you expect something memorable. The plate just didn't deliver the same energy as the room. Maybe I'm simply outside the target demographic. There seemed to be a pretty strong twenty-something surf/skate crowd, and perhaps I'm just not fluent in the culinary dialect of that demographic yet. Interesting place. Interesting concept. Interesting vibes. Friendly/helpful staff. Pretty average food.

Probably one of the best restaurants in Pensacola. Was recommended to give this place a try since I…read morewasn't impressed with other restaurants in the area during my visit. This place blew me away. The service was phenomenal, fast and very attentive. I didn't get a cocktail this time but the drinks looks amazing. I decided to try the lobster roll and it didn't disappointed. Plus nowadays you cant lobster less than $50 so was surprised this was only $35 with the amount they gave. Even the fries were delicious, house-cut and fried perfectly. This is a perfect place for a date night, girls night or just a nice dinner to treat yourself too. Only thing is there isn't much parking. I would definitely be back next time I'm in the area. If you haven't tried yet do yourself a favor and go!

Service is the star! We walked in Saturday night, no reservations and they found us a spot at the…read moreraw bar - and that felt like a VIP experience. Dirty martini was excellent, Kumamoto oysters and all accompaniment's were delicious. Where they fell short...we ordered salmon crudo at the same time that we ordered oysters and there was a very long delay between the two, our waitress even came over twice to reassure us that the crudo was coming. But...our entrees were brought out before the crudo. kind of defeats the purpose of a cold crudo when you're eating it with your hot entree :-( We were comped a dessert, which we would have ordered anyway...to add insult to injury, my snapper was overcooked and dry! DH said his scallops were delicious, but lacked the promised orange flavor. Funny/not funny, eating the crudo left me disappointed and wishing for a better experience. I actually continued to think about it when I got home, it bothered me that much. Not sure what the restaurant could have done differently...as they say, timing is everything! $216 + tip = $258.19 for dinner for 2...I should not leave disappointed.

Our waitress was very attentive and very friendly and was helpful with recommendations. We got pork rinds and boiled peanuts for appetizers and both were great! The pork rinds came with a house hot sauce which were delicious. All of our entrees were delicious. My scallops were perfectly cooked and not sandy at all.

I was seated in the middle of the bar with customers on both sides of me. My server took my drink and food order, and after that, she never returned to check on me. I watched her walk past me several times while attending to the customers directly to my left and right. Not once did she ask how my food was, whether I needed another drink, a box, or my check. Eventually, another server noticed my frustration and asked if I needed anything. I told him I needed a box and my check and explained that my server had never returned to check on me. His response was, "We are all working the bar." That response was unnecessary and dismissive. If everyone was working the bar, it makes it even more confusing that I sat there for so long without anyone checking on me. A simple, "I'm sorry about that. Let me take care of you," would have been the appropriate response. I understand restaurants get busy, and I don't expect perfection. However, basic attentiveness and customer service should be expected, especially when a customer is sitting directly at the bar. Unfortunately, this experience was very disappointing.
