We discovered an incredible restaurant in Perdido Key that was perfect for a Sunday dinner with family, offering exceptional service, delicious food, and lovely music that made our evening truly special.

fried platter with upcharge special
Tanya C.

great lunch today with the fresh catch of triple tail for the win! my downside was my order of salad. the greens were wilted and just not appetizing but the fish served a top was great. he also ordered the triple tail and said it was so fresh and tasty. danielle was our server and was so attentive. the interior isn't much to look at, just an old outdated building . the food and service is the draw for return customers!

Fried whole mullet
Dale S.

Happy to point out that The Point is still 100% on point after all these years of Point dining (some 35 or so years for us now). Same familiar and comfortable ambiance; same friendly service (the lovely and personable Taylor today); and the same great fried mullet as always (which is what we drive from Pensacola for). We enjoyed a dozen of the LA oysters which today boasted a perfect brine followed by a cup of the hearty gumbo. And then... the piéce de résistance, fried mullet. We order a whole mullet each a la carte with no sides. $8 per mullet. We can make all the sides we love at home. When we're here in PNS/Perdido Key we want mullet , just mullet, without any side distractions, LOL. As I mentioned we did try the gumbo today as I'm on a gumbo reconnoiter, research and recipe mission this year. It's pretty darn good here. I would love to see an even darker roux, but it's plenty flavorful here. Our mullet, though not large, were perfectly breaded, seasoned, and fried. So enjoyable. Mullet nirvana. One of life's great pleasures here on God's great earth is restaurants like The Point which stand the test of time because of their commitment to the culinary craft, providing not only the pleasure of great food but as well of dining experiences that span and connect successive generations of family and friends. To wit see my Ray Smith story in a previous review. Included here is a pick of me and that bass player, Ray Smith with Bubba and Them from when we reconnected a couple years ago. Still playing at The Point.

Bar area

My wife and I arrive for an early dinner. There were only a couple of tables seated. We were ushered to a Table in the corner that was dark and cold. We did not want to sit there so we got up and moved to the bar. Our waitress who seated us took care of us at the bar. We opened with adult beverages and ordered our meals. My wife, a hamburger with blue cheese and I there small platter with the fresh catch of the day Blackened, cheesy grits, and fresh peas. Our food came out relatively quickly and we started our meal. It was at that point that we saw a couple of things that soured our appetite a bit. On our way out, I shared a couple of pictures to the man who appeared to be the manager that we observed from our vantage point at the bar. We hope they take care of them. We can't give anything higher than a three due to that. Hopefully, if we visit again, we'll see those issues taken care of.

Soft shelled crab... sooo good!
Jenifer K.

Shae served us and WOW! Service was AMAZING... and the FOOD Seriously, some of the best we have had on our southern tour this winter! Such a gem... a hidden treasure! GREAT REAL food and drinks... amazing service! I ate way too much... but it was too good not to

Shrimp po boy

Food is good but not great. The hush puppies are the best I have ever had but the fried mullet and the shrimp po boy were ok. Service was great, our waitress Taylor was very attentive and nice.

Home made key lime CAKE
Anna Y.

Great service. Best hush puppies and coleslaw I've had in a while. Tuna dip is amazing as well. Live music available, great ambience

Piña colada and fried cheesecake
Hannah B.

Coming from out of town and looking to have a local feel atmosphere, this place did not disappoint!!! I cannot say enough great things, the service was excellent and our server was efficient and friendly even though her tables were packed. The food was great, I had the sampler as my meal with alligator, calamari, and fried pickles and my friend has the blackened shrimp po boy, both of which were delicious, finished with key lime pie and fried cheesecake everything was so amazing including the woman singing and the gentleman playing alongside her.

Fried Crab Claws
Madalyn J.

Incredible hole in the wall with great food, prices, and live music! We will absolutely be coming back. They have the best prices on crab claws! One of our favorite spots in the area.

Mahi mahi and snapper

Awesome food and staff. Band started playing at 6:30 Friday night. Lots of fun. Good drinks and tasty food. Sautéed Crab claws were amazing. Left full and happy.

Lamonte Gelato - Two Scoop Cup w/ Matcha Coconut & Olive Oil/Fig

Lamonte Gelato

If ya know, ya know. Gelato is ice cream's older brother, maybe a little more accomplished and…read morerefined, appeals to the ladies, and generally just does most everything with that extra panache. The flavors are sharper & the milkfat is lower and it's a rather fantastic experience. Lamonte shares space in the historic Sacred Heart Hospital building and there is ample space in or out at which you can enjoy your treats. This small business has won 'Best on the Coast' awards and you can absolutely see why! Gelato is almost fluffy, it seems creamier without the cream, and the combinations can seem endless. They even have a variety that is Olive Oil & Fig, which was sampled by a member of our party and deemed fantastic. Our shared cup of Salted Caramel & Double Chocolate did not last long, and when served with a waffle cone wafer, it made for the perfect union. A small cup, in which you can mix up to two flavors, runs you $5.50, and the larger cup will run you $6.50, making it super-affordable for this artisanal approach to a wonderful delight. Lamonte even puts together a fabulous coffee/drink menu, so there is just about something for any time of day. Pro tip: try an Affogato, a delight of espresso over vanilla gelato. The staff is friendly and certainly willing to suggest something for gelato rookies, and you can see why this brand is exceptionally proud of its product.

Easily one of the best gelato places I've been to in the states. Every flavour I had was delicious,…read moreplus the scoops were quite large. And every time I've been, they've been super nice and polite. The shop itself is perfect. Plenty of seating and has a welcoming classy no frills vibe. I will always hit this place up when in Pcola.

This was my second time here. I hadn't been here since they opened. Was very dissapointed in the…read morefood the first time I was here since the food in my opinion is not authentically German. It wasn't bad, just nothing special. I had the curry wurst the first time I was here, which was nothing like the Curry Wurst in Berlin. Tasted like an American interpretation. This time I had the buffalo wings, which were decent, definitely better than the curry wurst. My mom had the Jaeger Schnitzel, which came with potatoes, she also ordered a side of red cabbage. Jaeger Schnitzel was ok, potatoes were fine. I did like the red cabbage, but it is vinegary, which is the way I prefer it. I noticed other reviewers mentioned this as well. I had the apple strudel. It looked like the ice cream was plated over a week ago, I don't know how to better explain it. The whipped cream was frozen in the center. The strudel was good, but you could tell it had been made a while ago and they had reheated it. It did not come with berries and powdered sugar like it showed on in other pictures on-line. The only staff that seemed to enjoy working there were the young new trainees, you could tell the rest of the staff didn't really want to be there. Decent ambience to get a draft German beer, but there are better places to get dinner on S. Palafox.

We visited the Bavarian menu and enjoyed the sausage sampler, very yummy! Really enjoyed the gravy!…read more Then later we tried the Italian side of the menu! Also delicious! We enjoyed the Sophia Loren Pizza! Decent list German beer, and a nice list of wines.
