    My wife and I dined there Feb 14th (Valentine’s Day) for the first time. We loved the atmosphere, the drinks were very good, and the food was fantastic. The service was top notch. We live here in Port St. Joe and we definitely dine here again and highly recommend. Five star food and service

    First let me say this is our favorite place to dine in PSJ and we go every time we are down here but this time the food was not good. $45 snapper was maybe 1/2” thick and greasy. Disappointing.

    Here’s an example of a great review for The White Marlin & Oysterette in Port St. Joe: From the moment we walked in, The White Marlin exceeded all expectations.( we showed up early and the hostess accommodated) The waterfront views were absolutely breathtaking, making for the perfect sunset backdrop during dinner. Our server(Morgan) was attentive, knowledgeable and had a great personality! The oysters were fresh and perfectly shucked, and the Crab Cake was perfection. Yes, it’s a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of the food, service, and ambiance made it worth every penny. This place is a must-visit if you’re in Port St. Joe!
