    Charged $14 for this chicken quesadilla even though the menu said $12 - I did get $2 back after telling the waiter that it isn't my fault that your menu prices aren't correct - you can't just charge more for that reason DO NOT RECOMMEND - also the quesadilla wasn't that good - just okay - maybe a little more beans & corn Also didn't receive a 10% local discount that this restaurant is supposed to offer - this waiter didn't know anything about it & there was no manager available

    Service and atmosphere 10/10! The staff was so nice and accommodating to our large group. Food was yummy, too! Get the key lime pie!

    The most EXCELLENT server.

    Don't hesitate to try this place, whether you are just coming for a drink or beer-food or entertainment The place hit all the marks. That wonderful gentleman was our server and he was more than outstanding I was very impressed with everything and will return and recommend

    We loved it! Couldn't get into our usual seafood place so we stopped here. Family of 6. We had crab legs and corn and broccoli and the best baked fried potatoes! All fresh and perfectly cooked. There was live music and our server was friendly and attentive. It was our 21st anniversary- dinner was perfect!

    Fried grouper "bites"

    Um... ok. The family and I decided to eat here for lunch. The place looked amazing from the outside. When we arrived they weren't busy at all. Mind you it was Friday prime lunchtime. They have a big sign out front advertising .75 cent Budweiser. I actually got a couple but they weren't the best drafts. We did order a smoked tuna dip and it was pretty good. The waitress was nice but not fast at all. We sat outside in the front to eat. Like I said earlier cool little spot. I ordered the fried grouper bites which I thought was going to be a whole lot but I got about 7 pieces on a bed of fries. The fish was not good at all. Wasn't fresh. Had an old fishy cod taste or something. The fries were probably the best part. The rest of the family ordered random things and they weren't pleased as well. We're not the type to complain or send anything back. We will just not choose to do it again. I did have to use their restroom so I walked in and the inside was really nice looking. I just wish the food was good. It not being busy at lunch should have been a sign.

    We went to a fundraiser for Autism and they had several bands that played. We had a really good time. People were friendly.

    I understand staffing shortage, but to be completely ignored is unacceptable. We waited 20 min unacknowledged. Will never return.

    Way better places to eat. Drinks are over priced and food isn't great. Friendly waiters.

    Great place to go if you want a view, it's hard to sit outside and not get a great view of the…read moregulf. If you want a mixed drink they are pricey $16+, but you get a take-home souvenir cup which is probably why they cost so much. Food was good, their traditional baked oysters were delicious and I got their red fish tacos which were good, I would suggest ordering a side of the cilantro cream sauce on the side as they were a bit on the dry side though. My husband is gluten-free and he had quite a few different options to choose from which was nice. Our server was fantastic! He listed off all of their popular items for us, and we got our food quickly. Would definitely come back here again!

    I'm only giving it 2 stars because our service was good but the food was truly some of the worst I…read morehave had. You can tell they care more about quantity than quality. We got the appetizer sampler and everything was cold, the mozzarella stick were just blocks of cold cheese. My partner for the Caesar salad which was wilted and her chicken was dry and overcooked. I got the gumbo and all I could taste was raw flour. Our other party has the shrimp platter which was $26 dollars for plain store bought shrimp and fries. Might be nice if you get to sip on the patio and get some drinks because they have a nice view, but honestly I would say save yourself the 2 hour wait and the crazy parking situation. Not worth it.

    Local Perspective - Good Service, Food Was Just Okay…read more We're locals in the Panama City Beach area and decided to try Flamingo Joe's during the off-season while we were out looking for pizza. We found them online and thought we'd give it a shot and support a local place. The restaurant has a fun, kitschy beach vibe and the staff was friendly. We were seated right away and our waitress was attentive. Service was actually very good and our food came out quickly. When we first walked in, though, there was a strong smoky smell, almost like someone had been smoking in the enclosed patio area. It was also extremely quiet. We were the only customers there at the time, which made the atmosphere feel a little flat. As for the food, it was unfortunately just okay. Two people in our group ordered pizza and both felt like it tasted very similar to frozen pizza. The wings were fine but nothing particularly memorable. I had a burger and fries, which were decent and probably the safest choice of what we ordered. While we were there an entertainer came in and started setting up for music later in the evening, which was actually nice and made us think it might get more lively later on. Overall, the service was friendly and fast, but the food didn't quite live up to what we were hoping for. We're always happy to try local spots, but this probably isn't one we'll be rushing back to.

    This review is unfortunately a disappointing one, which matched an otherwise disappointing Sunday…read morenight. The focus this evening seemed to be more on training a new employee than on the customers. Everyone needs training when they start a job, so we waited patiently. We eventually placed our order: a Hawaiian chicken and fries. The order was repeated back to us, and I even heard it repeated twice in the kitchen. While we waited, a man was pacing behind the bar, eating chili out of a plastic container in front of the two other customers, talking about how "she makes the best chili in the world." It was an odd experience. When our food arrived, it was a Hawaiian burger drenched in teriyaki sauce. I ate about half the burger and most of the fries before being asked how everything was. I mentioned that it wasn't chicken. She apologized and offered to remake it as a chicken dish, but after a long day of travel with multiple flights, I was already hungry and had started eating. I told her I'd just finish what I had. She did take $4 off the bill, which I appreciated. Overall, it was just a letdown, especially since we've enjoyed this place on previous visits. Sorry, Jo.
