Best restaurants near me in Panama City Beach, FL

Dining at Firefly was an ‘experience’! I would utilize this restaurant for special occasions. Our server(I think of her more as an assistant)was attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. The amazing thing is that she had only worked there a couple weeks! I have a very difficult time remembering names, but her birthday is December 20, a day before mine! I spilled my water and I INSTANTLY had 3 kind gentlemen efficiently change our tablecloth that made me feel like a special guest instead of the 73 year old accident prone individual I am! The meal was a ‘beautiful presentation’! It was a GREAT experience!

Grand Marlin is my go to place in PC Beach. Food is always extraordinary as is the service. Highly recommend!!

Great experience for our reservation of 20 people. We made the reservation in advance and confirmed it through Open Table but the restaurant is going through renovations and they did not have a host to control the reservations. They were not aware we were coming but the manager (I can't remember his name) was still were able to accommodate us pretty fast. Thank you so much for that! Even though they are having renovations, at the time of our reservation there wasn't much going on so it wasn't noise disturbance. The renovations are promising! Thank you Amanda, our server, for taking care of the group!

Great staff! Very nice atmosphere and great views.

For being off the beach, patio seating is limited as well as your view due to its proximity to the building which blocks your view of the sunset. Nice setup inside, bathrooms very clean, restaurant is modern and there was live music indoors when we went on a Wednesday night. Menu is small, but food was great! Had a couple of cocktails which were also good, everything reasonably priced and not overcrowded compared to most restaurants in the area. Highly recommended!
