There isn't anything "super nice" in Destin, but the advice pointing you to the Henderson Beach Inn is solid. It's a great romantic dinner, on the beach, with very little "touristy" (read: airbrush and bud light) clientele.

Ocean Club is dated/old/filled with the elderly.

Fleming's is chain trash.

Lagniappe is quality food (on an underappreciated part of the harbor, imo) as is Mimmo's.

The Inn at Crystal Beach's restaurant has changed hands a few couple times since Creehan had Beachwalk there. The current iteration is awful and out of place compared to 790 on the Gulf (the prior outlet).

Used to be the food highlight of our vacation as a kid. It was the nicest place my parents would let us go, and we got feed the turtles a loaf of bread.

Not surprised about the clientele being old. That was a hot spot in the 90’s, so I figure all the folks eating there now are the ones that have been going there for 30+ years.

Henderson Beach Inn frowns upon beer drinkers. FYI.
