Staying at the Lodge. Have been a few times, but a while back.

So far I have Cobalt, The Gulf, and Zekes. Any others you like?

Voyagers if you’re looking for a nicer date night out.

Coastal is great for what it is…a nice, beachy place to take the Fam with decent food. I really like their seafood offerings actually.
I love the concept

I was very pleasantly surprised by Foodcraft at the hotel in the State Park a couple of months ago.

Buc-eees at the Foley Exit.

The Wharf
It's a marina you can tool around and go googly eyes over sportfishers. I didn't eat or shop but stopped by to see weigh ins of blue marlin tourney. Looked like a fun place.

The Gulf is not bad.
We've been to the one in Okaloosa Island a couple time. Truffle fries are good and the lobster rolls aren't bad.

I actually like Coastal. Food is decent and it's otherwise just a really great spot on the beach with good drinks too.

OSOs for a nice casual meal on the bay
Big Fish if you want something a little nice. Great sushi here
Voyagers is a great meal for a date night or special occasion
Zekes is a nice setup if you want to be close to the beach

Went to TinTop recently and had a great time.
