The food and ambiance were both excellent, which makes this review especially disappointing to write. Our server was professional and clearly doing everything she could, but she was assigned several large tables and was completely overwhelmed. It was obvious she needed help, yet no one stepped in to support her. As a result, we waited at least an hour and a half for our dinners. To make matters worse, our bill included a charge that shouldn't have been there. When we politely spoke with management about our experience, we weren't looking to get anyone in trouble--we simply wanted them to understand what had happened and make it right. Instead of addressing the excessive wait or the billing error in a meaningful way, management instructed our server to remove her gratuity from the bill rather than taking responsibility themselves. That response said everything. The problems we experienced were clearly management issues, not our server's. She worked hard under impossible circumstances and deserved support, not to have her tip used as the solution. We made things right for our server, and stressed to her that this was not her fault. The kitchen produces great food, and the restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere. Unfortunately, poor management overshadowed what could have been a great dining experience. I hope they invest more in supporting their staff and taking ownership when things go wrong. read more

Commelfo Restaurant - Lobster Ravioli - Modern European Near Me - Miramar Beach, Florida

The restaurant is a hidden gem in a strip mall in Miramar Beach. It is so cute on the inside. The food and drinks were fantastic. We had a large group so we made a reservation, which was helpful because the setting is quite intimate the only bone I have to pick is our waiter was very condescending and not very attentive. read more

Excellent dining experience. Great service and food was outstanding. Loved the ahi tuna appetizer and commelfo salad was very good. Split the grouper with risotto and the prime ribeye steak. Both were outstanding and everybody else in our group loved their meal read more

Overall I would give this place a 7/10. The Lychee martini was new for me and enjoyable. The food: appetizers were good, coconut shrimps and calamari. Entrees weren't all that flavorful- lobster Ravioli and the chicken something . Food was kind of overpriced for what it was worth; however the ambience and service was great! Staff and waiter were very nice and professional. read more

I really wanted to give this a 5 star review but I just don't think it lives up to the 5 star hype. If you get one thing from here you HAVE to get the coconut shrimp. It was 10/10 and I wish I would have just gotten another order for my dinner! I got the prosciutto wrapped chicken and I am not sure what it was but something was just way to overpowering in season. I loved the mashed potatoes. They were definitely homemade and tasted incredible. I would give the meal a 7/10. My boyfriend got the lobster pasta and it was very good! 8/10! The atmosphere was nice. Dressy but not too fancy. The drinks were amazing! Just not crazy about some of the foods! I would give it another try! Domicy was a great server! read more

5 stars because the porcini mushroom ravioli was one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. I went with a big party and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. I sampled a lot, including risotto, grouper, osso bucco, calamari (they served it with fried banana peppers as well, which is great! My southern friends were not used to that but loved it), coconut shrimp, and the lobster ravioli. Everything tasted great. The mushroom ravioli was so delicious. I can't stop thinking about it. The only thing that could be done to improve the dish would be to include more than 3 of those delicious micro grape tomatoes or whatever they were. Those paired with a bite of that ravioli was pure heaven. The atmosphere was also great; it felt very upscale, especially given that it's located in a strip mall. It was dim, they had those cute metal lights on the table, it was well decorated, no complaints in that department. If you were celebrating a birthday, they'd play a birthday song over the speakers and bring out a fudgy cake with a sparkler. They'd play Chapel of Love for the bachelorette parties, too. Love that! Now, for the negatives. I should take a star off for the service- but the food was too good warrant that. Service was incredibly slow - one of our appetizers arrived way later than the others, a beer took forever to get to the table, and the servers were simply not attentive when any of our group members needed them. And for the price of the food- which is high- they need to have only the finest quality of service. Because the food is already there! read more

My husband and I had such a wonderful time celebrating Valentine's Day at Commelfo Restaurant! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a special evening together. The ambiance really set the tone -- romantic, comfortable, and beautifully done without feeling over the top. The food was absolutely amazing. Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. The drinks were just as impressive -- perfectly prepared and a great complement to the meal. What really made the night special was the overall experience. The service was attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcomed the entire time. It's the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy each other's company, and truly savor the moment. We're so glad we chose Commelfo for Valentine's Day and will definitely be back. Highly recommend for date nights or any special occasion! read more

We were in town a few weeks ago for my husband's birthday and he decided he wanted a rib eye. This place ended up being delicious! It was a great find. I had the gnocchi and it was great too! Give it a try! read more

Found this place 3 years ago. OMG it is the best and if you go ask for the healthy blond with an accent I forgot her name. The lobster ravioli is great and their special of grouper was so good. Eaten there twice this week. Waitress is so so nice and good. First one in Destin that waits until you set your utensils down to ask how is your food. You set down your glass of wine with less than a taste left in the glass she politely asks would you like so more. We went for my wife's birthday first time and they bring out a dessert with a candle with loud speaker singing HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Went back 4 days later waitress asks my wife did you have a good birthday. read more

It was amazing! Anniversary dinner and could not be more pleased. The atmosphere , staff and especially the food and drinks were fantastic. This place was packed and rightly so. We had dinner at the bar. Dimitry, the bartender was the best. We will be back and definitely recommend! read more

Literally worst restaurant I've been to in a long time. Seafood pasta was watery slop.

I've been to this restaurant a couple times and let me just say, they are consistent and don't disappoint. Each time I come, I'm met with attentive and swift service. The ambiance is exceptional, especially for this area (which is saturated with trendy, quick beach dining options that often lack flavor). Every dish I've eaten here is delightful to the palette... the croissant toast is made from scratch as well as many of their other delicious dishes. I come here frequently, and you should, too! Enjoy? read more

I had made reservations for this dinner a week in advance. When we arrived we were the only ones in the whole place, which worried me a little bit as this was for our anniversary and my birthday. It's not like it was early, as it was 6pm but it was a Sunday and "off season" for Destin as a whole. However, Dinner ended up being amazing! I started with the espresso martini. Just perfect! For an app we ordered the bruschetta. I knew before I went what I wanted so I ordered the seafood pasta with squid noodles. I had never had squid noodles but they were good! My husband ordered the salmon pasta which also looked perfect and he said it was great. Before dinner had started our waitress asked if we were celebrating anything. We did tell her my birthday! When desert time came I did say I didn't want anything but she ended up bringing out a complimentary brownie and fruit. They played the happy birthday song over the speakers which I felt was perfect because usually I get embarrassed when everyone gathers around us and sings to me. It was nice that it was just her, she put the dessert down, lit the candle and I blew it out without people singing and clapping and making a scene. Thank you for making my birthday dinner so special! read more

Came here for my birthday with family (party of 11- highly recommend reservations for a larger party). They have the cutest indoor and outdoor areas, the decor is unique and classy, and is appeasing to the eye. The service was impeccable, the drinks were covered in delicious details, and the food was sooooooo good!!! Highly recommend to check this place out when you're in the area!

I truly wish this review was about a great experience, but unfortunately, our recent visit to Commelfo was anything but. A group of African American influencers and I made a reservation, only to arrive and be told that the restaurant *doesn't take reservations*. We were surprised but agreed to wait the 45 minutes. Once seated, we ordered drinks and began recording content, sharing our experience in real-time--some of which the restaurant themselves reposted to their social media. However, things quickly went downhill. We waited over **two hours** and never received our food. Other tables that were seated *after* us--including a large party of 15+--received both their appetizers and full meals while we continued to wait. When we inquired multiple times, we were told repeatedly that our food would be ready in "10 minutes." It never came. The communication was poor and frustrating. One staff member claimed to be the manager, then denied it. When I asked for the owner's information, I was met with resistance and sarcasm--only receiving a business card after unnecessary back-and-forth. To be clear: only two of us ordered steak, yet we were told our wait was due to "steak taking longer." Meanwhile, others with steak were being served well ahead of us. Ultimately, we left--hungry and disappointed. We only paid for our drinks (which we shouldn't have had to), and left to find food elsewhere. A follow-up voicemail from the founder of our influencer agency was ignored. To make matters worse, several of us were *blocked* by the restaurant after leaving honest reviews. It's hard not to notice that we were the only African Americans in the restaurant that night--and also the only ones whose meals never arrived. As content creators who came to support local businesses, this was a disheartening and unprofessional experience. We gave Commelfo the benefit of the doubt at every step, but they failed us completely. We hope this review helps others make informed decisions before dining here. read more

Wow! Speechless. No words can describe how good this was. From the ambience to the food it was a sensational experience. My boyfriend and I had our Valentine's Day dinner here, and they truly made our experience one to remember. There was live music, candle light dinner and they had the cutest Valentine's Day decor. It was a busy night with the holiday, but the wait staff were extremely kindhearted, professional, and accommodating despite the busyness. 10/10 experience I wish there were 6 stars. read more

Commelfo Restaurant - Prosciutto Wrapped Stuffed Chicken - Modern European Near Me - Miramar Beach, Florida

The staff here are severely lacking. Downright rude, not very good at their jobs, and not accommodating at all. Walked in with a party of 11 with a reservation and a record of a conversation with the manager about said reservation. The hosts claimed they didn't have our reservation and they couldn't accommodate us, while the restaurant was 30% full - they had plenty of space for us. They stormed away and put some tables together without really telling us what they were doing. Then came and said to us "you are really lucky to be here." LOL! I couldn't believe this whole interaction. Finally seated, our server, Nellie, was nice enough but asked us how we'd like to do our checks. We said separate, and she said "that's not possible. I'll do checks of 2 people." Thereby forcing us to pair up with the person next to us for our checks..? Just really odd and screams lazy to me. The last service thing I will note is that nobody came around to clear empty plates or glasses. We had a table full of empty drink glasses and plates which is just sloppy. The saving grace is the food, truly this place does have good food which is why I'm sure they are still in business. The grouper and lobster ravioli in particular were great. Good wines and cocktails too. From the outside the decor looks a little sketch but it's pretty nice on the inside, cute chairs and decor. A little campy with the fall decorations and TVs but overall nice ambiance. read more

Food was amazing and service was incredible. We celebrated our 33rd anniversary there and it was very good!

While the service was great, we found the food to be mediocre and lacking seasoning. The Truffle Burrata Appetizer was fine, but could have used more tomatoes. The Short Rib Special tasted like pot roast covered in Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce while the asparagus didn't even taste like it was salt and peppered. My husband had the Lamb with Risotto and it was mediocre as well. Given other options and local favorites, we would not return. read more

Everything was lovely. Dinner entree range is $30 - $55'ish. The coconut shrimp and calamari apps - huge shrimp, were well prepared with flavorful sauces. I had the gnocchi with chicken, spinach, mushrooms and tomatoes. The sauce is what makes this dish special. The lobster ravioli and salmon and fettuccine were reportedly delicious as well. I love oversized wine glasses - my Pinot glass did not disappoint! The staff was professional and prompt. The restaurant is beautifully dressed. Parking is shared with other businesses and can be hit or miss. I'd recommend this place for a nice dinner. read more

If you aren't eating here you are missing out on the best food along the Gulf Coast. My wife and I had brunch here today. We shared the calamari, she had the coconut shrimp and I had the Benedict Alla Commelfo. Backed with Bloody Marys. She ate the shrimp without saying anything. When we were finished I asked he "how was the shrimp?" She said "it was so good that I didn't want to say anything for fear that you would want some!" Everything was PERFECT. We have lived and traveled all over the US and world. I can't remember a better meal anywhere. read more

Great, fresh food with kind service. The waiter Gin was pleasant and helpful. Contemporary and upbeat atmosphere.

Well done, all the way around. It wasn't perfect, but Commelfo' sure was a pleasant surprise. Its curb appeal hides what's inside: a nicely appointed establishment, an appropriately attentive and professional staff, with a strong menu. Several reviews aren't wrong: the dishes we enjoyed wouldn't hurt from a bit more flavor. Oh, and the music (speaker) system needs to get fixed. Classy move, as well, to bring us a delicious brownie with cream and fruits for our anniversary ... thank you. We'll see you again one of these days, Commelfo. read more
