We visited from California and ended up eating at Azul Mediterranean twice during our trip... which says everything. This was honestly one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. The food was incredible--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish we tried was consistently amazing, and you can tell there's real pride behind what's coming out of the kitchen. What stood out just as much was the atmosphere and service. It felt welcoming, relaxed, and thoughtfully run. You can feel when a place is special, and this is one of those spots. We went back a second time because we couldn't stop thinking about it--and it somehow exceeded expectations again. If we lived here, this would be a regular place for us. Truly a standout. read more

Azul mexican fusion - Mexican Near Me - Destin, Florida

The lack of other customers was the first clue. They were out of some seafood items, so got chicken instead. The chicken tasted old & had a weird texture. My dining partner had beef tacos & said they were mediocre. The menu is a confusing mix of Mexican & Middle Eastern foods (both of which we usually love). The cocktails were overly sweet, tasted like mixer only, no detectable alcohol. Service was polite & quick, & the ambience was nice. read more

My brother and I got the shark cup, mine was sweet tea his was fruit punch. I got a cheeseburger . My dad got the kabobs. This one server was so nice he told my dad how to eat his meal correctly. All the seating is open to the outside by the Destin Harbor. Yaron made us a dessert that was not on the menu and it was WONDERFUL!!! read more

I paid $80 for 2 good coronas honestly.. read more

Ambiance is 5. It's on the gulf and gorgeous. Sadly everything else falls very very flat. The service was less than 1 star. The only person that checked on my table repeatedly was the manager. He was kind and good to chat with. A lead waiter saw we weren't getting assisted and checked on us once and our assigned waitress didn't know the menu and didn't understand our order and didn't deliver any food and brought out one drink, only when asked. The dip fleet was okay, queso - okay, crab - meh, guac- great, salsa - meh The taco bowl, meh. Hard rice good chicken The kebab, it's not a kebab. It's not cooked on charcoal, it's not Turkish or Mediterranean it's something, but not as advertised. Sadly overall it wasn't for me. I hate saying that. read more

Be aware... you see $16 on the menu for a margarita and they don't tell you that it is really $19 if it's frozen and they add tajin. They don't mention the UPCHARGE when asking if you want salt/tajin or frozen/on the rocks. Also 3% charge for not paying cash. Just seems deceptive to me. Food was decent. read more

This place disappointed me. If you're even thinking about coming here, please save yourself the gas and the money. We ordered multiple things, and it took over an hour just to order. By that point, we were already full from the chips and salsa. We got the burrito, which was average, and the fajitas were honestly terrible -- not sure how you mess up fajitas, but they managed to. The nachos made me gag, and the tacos were trash. I've never felt the need to write a review before, but I genuinely had to warn people about how bad this experience was. They sat our table of 10 in a tiny cramped corner where we were all squished together. Definitely not recommended at all. Wanted to warn all the tourists. read more

Best dining experience in Destin! I wanted something unique I couldn't get anywhere else when I picked this spot, and it delivered! The food was amazing and came out fast. The restaurant itself is beautiful with an ocean view and chic seating on comfy couches. My husband got the arak and we had to get another for the table! The owner even came out and talked to us and told us about the story behind some of his drinks/food. 100/10, definitely the most memorable place from my trip read more

This is hands down the BEST restaurant in Destin. The service was absolutely phenomenal, multiple people checked in on us and genuinely cared about the time we were having. Beautiful ambiance with a sunset view. Highly recommend calling and reserving a table. The food was the best I've had in at least a year, Mexican and Moroccan fusion. Cheers to you guys, this was amazing! read more

The ambience is to die for. The appetizer flight was a real hit!. Food was quite tasty; drinks were delish!

The view is nice of the harbor. The service was excellent. We got the kabobs which were ok. Nothing exceptional. We also got a 4 flight dip (queso, guacamole, street corn (skip it) and Mediterranean salsa with chips. It was a tasty choice. read more

Azul mexican fusion - Silver mule - Mexican Near Me - Destin, Florida

This was the first restaurant of our trip and it was a huge let down! The view was amazing. Nothing beats a water view. The food: Chips and Salsa: Chips were standard, salsa was bland. Street Corn: It was pretty good Flight of Dips: Guacamole was good, seafood Parm was ok, Street corn was good, Queso was alright. Azul Bowl w/ Mahi - Rice was HARD. Mahi was overcooked and DRY. The salsa in it was cold and the it all off. It was pretty terrible. Mediterranean Bowl w/ Shrimp - shrimp was tiny and super salty. Another failed dish. Taquitos- Over fried and minimal filling. Son says it tastes like eggroll and not tortilla. Service was alright. Waiter was friendly, but refills needed to be asked for and silverware took way too long to get. Place wasn't busy either. Overall I'd pass on this spot and do not recommend it. read more

This beautiful grandiose restaurant sits at the end of the Harbor Walk. Filled with various types of seating such as bar stool height to lounge couches facing the water, you can see all types of vessels coming in and out of the harbor just before the bridge by crab Island. Even on a cloudy drizzly late afternoon, we enjoyed our entire stay as the outdoor seating is covered by very high awnings. The entire staff was super friendly, professional, and efficient. The food is prepared very quickly, getting our food probably in less than 10 minutes after we ordered, but we did just order appetizer type entrées. We ordered the guac which was absolutely delicious along with chicken wings and street corn. Unfortunately, my daughter took a risk and ordered the chicken Shawarma taco bowl and she felt it was exceptionally bland and ate less than a quarter of her meal. We ordered two espresso martinis and a virgin drink in a watermelon, which was delicious. I gave four stars because when we gave the feedback for the chicken Shawarma taco bowl, it was not a surprise to the server. We wish we would have been advised in advance that it can be a bit bland and it's not necessarily a popular or well reviewed meal. We were not offered a different meal (even if we would have paid, which to me offering alternative when your meal or drink is subpar, is 5 star status). Additionally, one of the two espresso drinks tasted more like a light espresso with very little "martini". When we ordered a 2nd one the server was sure to advise the bartender to make it better, it was good. We ordered these espresso martinis because we definitely needed a little pep in our step, but it's not a drink that I would highly recommend here. Next time I visit (because we would definitely go back there again) I would try some of their other drink drinks. read more

We had the best experience! Friendly greeting by the owner and super attentive to our party of 6. Best homemade hummus, juicy kebobs, very flavorable. Will definitely be back! read more

The server we had was really nice. The food was literally disgusting I'm so confused by these reviews. I threw up so much after eating the mexican pizza, I don't think it was food poisoning though, I think it was just that disgusting and greasy. read more

The restaurant offers a fusion of Mexican and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. We were craving Mexican, so we made do with the options available. I ordered a watermelon margarita and an Azul bowl--Mediterranean chicken shawarma served in a fried tortilla bowl. The shawarma-seasoned chicken didn't blend well with the cilantro, black beans, lime, sour cream, and rice--an awkward mix of flavors. The margarita was just okay; it took a few sips to get used to the aftertaste. read more

We had a great time at Azul! The service was top notch, they definitely suggested their heavy hitters. We all love the views and ambiance of the restaurant and the DJ kept the vibes going. The food was so delicious and had so much flavor. We ordered the Mediterranean Seasoned Chicken Shawarma + Tahini Sauce, Azul Bowl, Arayes and unlimited Mimosas. The from scratch experience definitely noticed with our dishes. read more

We've visited twice & loved it both times! Great food, great service, & an amazing view. We'll definitely be back soon!

Sorry the photos are bad, we were sat right near a sign with blue light :( Pictures do not do it justice, but the food was really good! This Mediterranean x Mexican fusion was delicious! $16 bottomless mimosas & yummy espresso martinis Some flaws tho...typos in the menu & product issues. Menu says breakfast bowls come with roasted potatoes, but it actually comes with fries. The waiter told us this was an error on the menu & it's supposed to come with fries. TERRIBLE DECISION. Went here with a large group where about 5 people ordered the bowl, no one liked the fries with the breakfast bowl.... read more

Do not go here, sat down took 15 minutes for our waiter to realize she was on planet earth and come to our table. After we ordered she barely spoke english brought out our appetizer after our entree our food beat my beer out it was truly one of the worst experiences. To top it off they have an awful DJ blaring music and the food isn't even good without that view they would shut down. read more

Have been here twice before; they were always out of the avocado fritters, but thankfully they had them this time as it was the only good thing we got.... Ordered the arayo? It was burnt. That's all we could taste was burnt bread. Our dog didn't even like it. The barbacoa quesadilla was just ok, lack of flavor in everything, and very greasy. For $70 we both left super disappointed. read more

I want so bad to give this restaurant a 5 star! I feel like our server must have had a rough day, and we were there at 8 close to closing time. However, the ambiance is my favorite!! It's very Mediterranean/South American! The food came out quickly, and it was all good I lived my Mediterranean Bowl! It was so fresh and the Chicken Shawarma was great! Or friends ordered beef fajitas, and the meet was so tender! There were a few mistakes with our order, so they gave us a cheesecake that was perfect because it was not too sweet! I will definitely be back! read more

It was good but coming from the south, i thought it was the regular chicken cheese and rice with the chips and salsa type of deal. It was more authentic which is good. I did not like their salsa although their queso was spot on. service was friendly, and they were quick and always checked on their customers. Overall, it's great if you want authentic mexican food. read more
