    Fried grouper sandwich

    Food is INCREDIBLE! We had the black grouper sandwiches fried and enjoyed the pasta salad and chips. The fried mushrooms and sauce were also a star. It didn't take long for food to be prepared, and we loved sitting under the cover enjoying the day!

    We ordered 2 grouper sandwiches, a catfish basket and amberjack fish dip! I'm a really tough food critic and I'm all in 10/10 on everything we ate. The service was fast & friendly and it may be the weather today but the ambiance was perfect!! We got drinks at THE Dock, great prices and were just in awe of the place!! You won't regret it!! Hands down best fish sandwich I've had in PCB! Signed...a fisherman's daughter!

    Capt. Z from Sea Screamer recommended a few places in the marina, so we tried Squared Grouper. The sandwiches were huge and served on ciabatta with tomatoes, onions, lettuce and pickles. My husband had the fried grouper sandwich and I had the blackened grouper. A full 8 ounce filet! They were the freshest fish we have ever eaten, including anywhere else in PCB. The coleslaw was really good too. Went over to The Dock for drinks and sat out in the open air where there is a variety of seating areas and all overlooking the lagoon. So cool and great food.

    The Grouper sandwich is amazing and the outside ambience overlooking the bay is fantastic. Very relaxing.

The air-conditioned bathrooms were a major bonus in my opinion. We ordered breaded grouper, fries, coleslaw, and salad. The coleslaw was okay, but everything else was great! Our server was awesome! After we ordered our drinks and food, we ran down to the beach for evening family pictures. Our food arrived while we were down there, and he covered it to help keep it hot until we returned. We really appreciated that thoughtful gesture! A great spot for a relaxed meal right on the beach.

It's billed as the "Last Local Beach Club," a nod to being the last of the old-school open-air beach hangouts left on the Gulf Coast. It's picked up a Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence in 2016 and a Travelers' Choice award in 2025, and Men's Journal called it out in 2017 as the classic, much-imitated-but-never-duplicated beach town hangout. Had the fish, fresh and well prepared, and the mixed drinks were strong -- no watered-down beach bar pours here. The real draw, though, is sitting right on the sand with a good sunset in front of you -- few spots on the beach pair the setting with the food and drinks this well. A genuine local institution, and the sunset alone makes it worth a visit.

First, the service was mediocre at best. Our server took our order, brought our drinks and took our food order. Two other runners brought our food.... One was a side order of hush puppies for my entrée. I ordered the hush puppies on the recommendation of my server and it was absolutely horrible. Nothing like she described and fried in very dark oil. Horrible! The runner who brought that out said, I'm sorry it was the last of the batch! This was at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Have they already run out of hush puppies before they close at 9 pm? Their seafood gumbo, advertised as "made daily" was mostly bay scallops and okra. I ordered the grilled grouper sandwich. It came out with absolutely no condiments for a grouper sandwich, such as mayo or tartar sauce. Our server took some time to come over to check how things were so I waited to eat until I could flag her over to ask for some mayo. Believe me good things are not worth the wait! The grilled grouper was so salty. I couldn't even finish it. To add insult to injury, our server added the cost of the inedible hush puppies, which was the side order to my entrée, separately on our bill. She apologized and confirmed that was in error. Never Again and their high rating must be bogus.
