I loved the way the seating was spaced out and the staff seemed pleasant. The opener, Kickstand Jenny was good and brought back great memories from the 80s.

Thursday is Ladies' Night, and ladies drink for free for $20. I hear they're very strict about sharing drinks and people get kicked out immediately, so be careful. However, other drinks are CHEAP, so you can buy rounds for your men without breaking the bank. I bought 4 beers for $9 and felt like a baller. AYCD includes any well drink or beer, and they are strong. I only got through a few of them, myself. The DJs are great and we had a lot of fun dancing... and there are also lots of places to sit and hang out. Unlike most other clubs, the bouncers are super laid back and you can come and go as you please. Stop by if you're in Destin and especially if you're a lovely lady; you won't be disappointed!

I'll admit, we both walked in a little apprehensive, especially as we're a couple of Yanks. Those intrepidations quickly vanished after we were immediately welcomed by the friendly and down to earth bartender. After we mentioned we're currently trying out a non-alcoholic phase, he replied that he's about 2 years into his and gave us our first round of ginger beers on the house! WOW, talk about setting the tone for a great night out. There is such a chill & laid back yet happening vibe here, with so much action going on. The bar connected to a super lively bowling alley as well as a music venue (which wasn't open during our visit). They even had a pool table and TWO ping pong tables in the back. The ping pong balls were only 25 cents each and the paddles were in pretty good shape. They even had one paddle with the super thick padding, great for creating spin and such. We had some lively games and got pretty loud, yet no one seemed even remotely bothered! After about an hour or so, we checked out the bowling alley and discovered it had a massive arcade room. I tried out a hurricane simulator and yes, I survived! All in all, this place really rocked. It was a ton of unexpected fun yet not at all too wild for my taste. Seems like a popular spot with the locals and certainly one I shall return to during my next visit to Destin!

I always tell everyone to go to the Boat House if they go to Destin. After this past time I would say don't go very disappointed. We have been going to the boat house for over 15 years it was very sad.

It looked like a nice, relaxing, elevated restaurant we could relax at after a day of excursions. It really wasn't that. After spending most of our days eating at the themed surf restaurants that decorate with shark heads, surfboards and tiki lights. We had hoped this would be a change, it's really not. It may not be grossly decorated with those tiki-style items, but most certainly is that same type of restaurant. It's not elegant, it's not elevated and its most certainly, not relaxing. The food was very good, the service from our waitress, Savannah was mediocre. She seemed bored or maybe having a bad night and was doing her best to cover it with a smile. We ate up at the skybar which does have a very lovely view. The high-top table and chairs are uncomfortable. My wife and I had to come off the chairs to stand next to the table for a few moments because the chairs were so uncomfortable. As far as their food goes, I had the shrimp tacos. They were made with very fresh tasting ingredients and the shrimp wasdelicious. At least the 2 pieces per taco they came with. Most of what was in the taco was just the filling. $22.00 for two tacos I expected more shrimp. My wife's Grouper Moreno and the conch fritter appetizer were both delicious. Dessert was the salted caramel cheesecake which was good, but ridiculously sweet (as you'd expect it to be) Overall, the food was very good though the tacos could have included more shrimp then they did. The service was just okay. The restaurant itself is nice, but not the quiet relaxing place it looks like on their website. It's just another surf themed style restaurant, without all the gaudy decorations.

The pizza and the fries were decent, and the chicken fingers were delicious! Good music in the background, but at a level allowing conversation. Bartender and food server were both friendly.

The space has a cool indoor/outdoor setup, and the night we went they had live music, which made the whole place feel really lively. We sat inside but could still enjoy the music while catching some basketball games. The menu leans Mediterranean and everything looked incredible. We started with the tzatziki, shrimp wonton rolls, and potstickers. All three were great, but the shrimp wonton rolls were my favorite. For my main, I ordered the grilled shrimp pita (loaded with shrimp) with fries--definitely hit the spot. Around the table we also had burgers, a Mediterranean bowl, and pork belly tacos, and everyone loved their meals. We were so full we didn't even make it to dessert. Overall, great vibe, great food, and a fun atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out--just plan on taking an Uber or Lyft since parking is limited.
