Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for The Panhandle right now.
An abundance of seafood is served at coastal restaurants: oysters, crab, shrimp, scallops, and a variety of fish. Of course, that's not all there is on the menu. This part of Florida still impresses diners with old-fashioned comfort foods such as meat loaf, fried chicken, beans and corn bread, okra, and fried green tomatoes. You'll also find small-town seafood shacks where you can dine on local favorites such as deep-fried mullet, cheese grits, coleslaw, and hush puppies. Restaurants, like resorts, vary their operating tactics off-season, so call first if visiting during winter months.
Reservations are recommended for this dinner-only, 50-seat bistro that specializes in American comfort food with Creole and Southern accents. It's a short hop from the capitol and is a reliable spot for upscale dining in a down-to-earth setting.
