A super restaurant lots of tv with tons of games on. Fish of the day was swordfish would recommend. Service was great as well

I wasn't really impressed with this place and it was the worst meal of our trip. I ordered a simple grilled chicken sandwich. The bun wasn't prepped properly and was heavy. The chicken meat part was fine. It was an expensive lunch ($13 sandwich, $6 beer) for a meal that was less impressive than a fast food meal. The two stars is mostly for the friendly staff. read more

Austons on 98 - Looks nice, tastes meh - Seafood Near Me - Miramar Beach, Florida

This is a nice friendly place with good wait-help. We had the shrimp poor boy and the fish tacos. Sorry to say both were fishy tasting. They were presented nicely, but they just weren't good. read more

Delicious shrimp wontons with Thai chili sauce and blackened shrimp skewers - really fast service

I was sooooo underwhelmed . The drinks were watered down , the food was bland and the service was sub par. How they have the ratings seen are a mystery to me. Don't waste your time. read more

We tried to go to various restaurants and they were too crowded. We were able to get seated immediately here at 5:30. The food was good. The blackened catch of the day was great, enjoyed the fried shrimp (both came with two sides). Also enjoyed the giant pretzel and wings. It wasn't super busy and the food came out quickly. Service was good too. Not sure our server believed we could eat all the food we ordered, but we made a good dent in it! read more

Great atmosphere and friendly staff! TVs galore to watch sports any day of the week! Oysters are fantastic!

Great food and drinks in Miramar Beach. Bartenders and staff are fantastic. Live music read more

Austons on 98 - Drinks, oysters, and great food - Seafood Near Me - Miramar Beach, Florida

Still seems to be the best kept secret in Destin! My wife and I come here at least twice each year when we come down and always end up getting the same thing. The pretzel with beer cheese app is so good and they have along the best shrimp and grits!! read more

Good food and a tasty Bloody Mary! Very fair prices! It was our first visit and we enjoyed it very much! Had the wedge salad with bleu cheese and it was huge! Also tried their signature clam chowder which was also delicious! The seasoning rim on the Bloody Mary was great and all the toppings were nice as well! read more

Great food, great service and good drink! What more could you ask for? And a big shout out to Alabama Destiny for taking such good care of us -- the crew from Illinois! read more

Great food! Excellent service! Catch of the day was flounder; I had it blackened, my friend had it stuffed - both were delicious! Fried shrimp were lightly breaded, not greasy and the shrimp cocktail sauce (made in house!) was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend this place! read more

Food was good. Oysters were shucked fresh and the shucker was awesome. Service was subpar. I'd go back again

We've visited a couple times for dinner (party size of 7). The staff was great -- competent and friendly. Kids meal portions are very generous for young kids (early elementary age). We tried the raw oysters, fried calamari and cheese curds. All were good. The blackened shrimp and flounder were very good; grits flavorful and well-prepared. Key lime pie = yummy dessert. read more

Pretty sure my husband got food poisoning from the oysters. He said he thought they tasted funny when he was eating them but didn't say anything. The grilled scallops had too much salt. The best thing I can say, was the cheese curds were amazing. And our waitress outstanding. read more

We went twice on our trip to FL. The food was OK but the wait staff was great. We were a large party of 17 and the staff were troopers. Our waitress really went above & beyond (even bringing shirts to our table for us to see before we bought). They had live entertainment one night that was nice. read more

Food is good hot and fast. We have had the same server the last two times we went and he was horrible. Like getting waited on by a wet cardboard box. read more

So my friends and I frequented this establishment twice. One night my friend and I came for drinks and oysters. The oysters, drinks, and service was great!! We brought our families with us the second night because the oysters were that good. Our families loved the oysters. Dinner however was okay, which is the reason for minus one star. I ordered the stuffed fish of the day and it came out wrong. No worries. We are on vacation and nothing will rain on my parade. When it finally came out the center has some cool spots. I didn't complain because I already waited while everyone else ate and I had school aged kids and a toddler in tow. I wasn't about to wait more. Like I said, I wasn't made just put out a bit. My friend ordered the same thing. This is minor, but he was told he was going to get 2 hush puppies and he only got one. My plate came out and I had like 5 or 6. Just a little inconsistency there. No big deal. I am happy to share with my friends. Then the checks came out and they weren't right. We were told my meal would be comped and it wasn't. The checks were fixed and my meal was still on there. Whatever. My husband is the GM at an Italian restaurant and it takes a lot more than that to make us mad, but we were a little irritated. Overall, we left with happy kids and full bellies. read more

I had the fish of the day. It was red snapper. It was pretty good. The tomatoes and cucumber side was on point! I didn't expect to like it and it ended up being my favorite thing on my plate! Covered Patio was nice to sit on. read more

Used Yelp join waitlist feature. Waited the recommended time and arrived to check in. I was told they don't participate in Yelp waitlist and so our position on the app was ignored. Over an hour wait time when our family expected 10min. Won't go back. It's the restaurant's responsibility to ensure their online presence is correct. 9 people on the waitlist when we left and they will all be disappointed tonight. read more

Great service, amazing food! If I lived in Florida this would be my go to place. Best oysters, fish & has food for the whole family!

Really good food. Wait was expected this time of year. Checked back at estimated time and seated right away. Very nice people and great food. Will be back. read more

We just had dinner at Austons on 98 and it was the best meal we've had in Destin over many years! Wonderful food, excellent service and a cool vibe all made for a really enjoyable evening. read more

The food and service were fantastic! The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star is because of the very odd circumstances of our visit. We called ahead at 8pm to see about the wait and was told it was an hour and a half. When we arrived to find a mostly empty parking lot we were confused and a little put out. We went into a half empty restaurant and were greeted with hostesses who seemed either confused or stoned. They told us it would be a 30 minute wait. We looked around at the empty tables and non existent customers in the lobby and questioned this statement. We were told we could sit but NOT order food for 30 minutes because the kitchen was backed up. I started a timer on my phone and literally 4 minutes later we had a bubbly and cheerful server taking our order. We were so confused but gratefully ordered and we had appetizers and meal and check all before an hour was up. The crispy shrimp wontons and southwest egg rolls were soooo delicious. Food was great too and reasonably priced. We left with to go boxes. Would recommend going up there instead of trusting the hostesses who answered the phone. It seems there is a disconnect between them and what is going on in the kitchen/restaurant. read more

The food was great and the service was excellent. Our table split several of the appetizers including oysters, gumbo and shrimp - all good. Only "gripe" was the noise level, several football games on the TVs with loud, avid fans, but not so loud that it wasn't enjoyable read more

Awesome place! Great atmosphere !excellent service! Oysters were so good . Everything was really good!

We happened in on complete accident after two our waits at two other spots. Seated right away. I had the bourbon soaked chicken which was great and my wife had the stuffed baked Mauhi. Food was great fast attentive service. We'll be back. read more

Outdoor seating & only one other group outside. Next to a Winn Dixie so found after shopping. Ordered grilled scallops with cucumber/tomato salad as 2nd side ($24). Scallops slightly burn taste and salty. Cucumber/tomato salad strong vinegar but suited me. Green beans not tender crisp, a little bland. Came with a hush puppy. Spouse got oysters (Parmesan) came with slices of bread, clam chowder with side of beef skewer. He said ok not spectacular. We were happy to be able to eat without a crowd, a wait and to be outside! read more

Fun sports bar with excellent food. We have been here quite a few times. It's one of the places we always visit at least twice during our vacation. Lots of TVs all the big games but unlike most sports bars this place actually has really good food. Oysters are always a hit as is the fried shrimp. Always full of kids and big family parties although we tend to eat early so can't say how it is latter in the night. Staff is always friendly and attentive as well. I highly recommend this for a casual meal or to catch a game and a few drinks. read more

We came in for a quick snack. We ordered the chicken wings with a bbq sauce and clam chowder. Both were delicious. We especially loved the flavor of the clam chowder - it was creamy (not overly chunky which I personally don't like) and had a little spice to it. read more

Such a surprise! We usually vacation in Pensacola Beach and were having a hard time finding comparable restaurants. The shrimp here is fabulous! We had fried and shrimp and grits and both were excellent! The fried crab claws were also good! Prices are reasonable and service was good! Restaurant is also very clean. read more

wait was 30 mins they sat us within that time which is wonderful but food wasnt that great it's mediocre mac & cheese was cold oysters were okay an crab claws were good but our waitress was kind of rude just came up to us a said "drinks?" no hey how are u i wouldn't recommend this place tbh read more

We were seated right away and the service was on point. Thanks AJ. All of our food great, seafood was fresh and the appetizers were tasty. Perfect place for a relaxed dinner with all of the games on. read more

This place is a hidden gem! Trevor was amazing and made sure we really enjoyed ourselves. the food was great! We had the best seafood of our trip and it was well priced with a fun atmosphere! Great place to eat at Miramar! read more

Good food and great servers. Bartenders are cool and it's a great place for football. Crab claws and wings were perfect.

We had a great experience at this restaurant! amazing food and atmosphere! we also had an amazing waiter named Chris, he was awesome!

We had an excellent meal here. The food was so fast and delicious. The waitstaff was attentive and kind. The drinks were heavy on the liquor and not overly sweet. We sat outside and while there isn't much of a view, the patio was cheery and large and Covid-safe. We had two unhappy kids when we got there, and everyone was happy when we left. We plan on returning every trip. read more

First time here. Great service and yummy food. Grilled grouper, collard greens, and the BEST Mac n cheese I've ever had.

Excellent food. Large variety of items to choose from. There were 5 in my party, we all ordered different entrees and sides. All were very good. The staff is very friendly and attentive. read more

Very tasty food with tons of tv's. Long list of craft beer and drinks are made right! If your a local ask for the discount. Oysters, blackened chicken sammich, burgers, fried pickles, BBQ sammich, tot-chos and southwest egg rolls are stuff we have tried and were tasty! Nice new and very clean. Large bar too. Good stuff. Go check it out!!! read more
