    "Medium rare steak, over easy eggs, and no potatoes"
    Joshua H.

    I'm a Destin local and I was really looking forward to eating here because of the good reviews but I have never been more let down by a restaurant in my life. Ordered over easy, got scrambled eggs. I thought oh well I'll just put up with it ....Ordered medium rare steak with no butter sauce as (I am allergic to the margarine the waitress said they use) it was delivered well done with the margarine. I no potato's, I got potatoes. This is all after letting the waitress know I had an allergy to the sides and needed to have them not served... My daughter's French toast was amazing....until we found there was a black hair in it! Then my daughter pulled a black hair out of her drink! So I called the waitress over and asked to send my order back. She argued with me and said she would get in trouble but would talk to them about it. Then after it was all said and done, they charged me for it. I told them to take it off and they brought me the same ticket to sign along with another customer copy that showed "-$26...". The waitress said it was fine it was just a refund for the ticket already signed-problem is I never signed for the wrong amount and now it felt as if she was attempting to pull a fast one by trying to get me to still sign for the wrong amount! We finally got the bill sorted out but it was the worst experience I have ever had. I used to work in the food industry and so feel very strongly against sending food back-today was the very first day in almost 40 years of living I sent food back.

    The food was EXCEPTIONAL and the service was too! If you're in the area... this is a MUST!!!! Ambiance was laid back and fun!

    Amazing experience here. Customer service is amazing. The hostess and service staff here are really top-tier. The food is flavorful and delicious. Everything was served hot and fresh. The jerk chicken wasn't too spicy, which I enjoyed. The waffle was amazing, and I'm not even a huge coconut person. The chicken strips and chicken wings were good as well. Eggs and bacon were cooked really well. The French toast was good. It had a hint if the egg taste. I definitely preferred the waffle over the French toast. My sister ordered the crab croissant. It was pretty huge. The pancakes looked tasty. The cocktails and mimosas looked great. The restaurant is a good size, with plenty of lighting and music playing. Parking is good, too.

    Aaahhhhhmazing!!! The food was spectacular and the service top notch. My crab croissant was fresh, vibrant, light & decadent at the same time. That the croissant was grilled added just a little something extra to the dish. The pork belly & grits were loaded with flavor. The pork belly was cooked perfectly and the grits were like deliciously seasoned velvet. The Bloody Mary was also fantastic. The mix had body to it. It was thick, slightly spicy and a wonderful start to a day at the beach.

    I was excited to try this place out because of its rating but it was an honestly subpar breakfast/brunch place. The restaurant is clean but the breakfast had way too much cheese in the omelet. I love cheese but it was almost all cheese, I got disgusted pretty quickly. The service was pretty bad, didn't get silverware, took 15min to order, and the waiter was slow to refill our drinks.

    This cute brunch spot is located right off the bridge going into Destin. They have indoor and outdoor seating, I chose to sit outdoors. I ordered the crab Benedict which tasted wonderful and a Bloody Mary. The Bloody Mary honestly wasn't my favorite but I did love that they included a bacon garnish. The service was fast at the start however near the end of my visit I felt a little rushed to leave (they tried taking my water glass before I was done drinking it which I found odd.) It was more so the busser than the server who made made feel this way. I was only there for a short time maybe 35 minutes at max, so I thought the haste of getting me to leave was a little unnecessary.

    Don't miss out on this place. I had the Old 98 and it was delicious. My husband had the Harbor Hash and it was so good. Friendly and attentive staff. Loved the Jamaican music.

    Wow, We walked in and immediately recognized the location of the mural on the wall as Dunn's River. Our server was Michelle, she is very pleasant to talk with. After speaking to Michelle and listening to her recommendations, we placed our order. Oh my! The food and drinks were delicious . If in the area and you want delicious food, come check out Blue Mahoe.

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Blue Mahoe, a new breakfast restaurant in Destin, and I have to say that my experience was simply amazing. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming staff, and the atmosphere was just perfect for a relaxing breakfast. Now, let's talk about the food. I had trying a few dishes, but the standout was definitely the Bourbon Street - a plate of hand breaded, house seasoned chicken fillet fried to perfection, served with a Coconut Belgian waffle and Bourbon honey. It was the perfect combination of sweet and savory, and I couldn't get enough. The Bacon Triple Cheese Omelette was also a hit, with a sauté of onions, bacon, tomatoes, hot peppers, Fontina cheese, Cheddar cheese, and Asiago cheese. It was a spicy foodie's dream come true. For me as a sweet tooth, the Old Texas - three slices of thick Texas French toast with powdered sugar and whipped cream - was an absolute delight. But the real surprise came with the Special Dessert Biscuit, a chef's homemade biscuit topped with grilled pineapple, strawberry puree, whipped cream, and Bourbon syrup. I had never tasted anything like it before, and it was simply heavenly. To wash it all down, I enjoyed an ice coffee that was fantastic and an Island Punch drink made with dark rum, coconut rum, orange juice, and pineapple juice that was also very good. Their foods are creative and delicious, the staff is welcoming and friendly, and the atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing breakfast in paradise. I'll definitely be back soon.can't wait to try other foods from the menu.

    I'm hesitant to to write this review because I know once the word gets out this place is going to be crowded and I'm going to lose another local breakfast spot, but here goes. Blue Mahoe is located right on 98 in Destin closer to the Emerald Grande (near what used to be Landsharks.) They also have some outside seating which is perfect for beautiful weather days. I knew they just recently opened so we decided to give it a try on a Saturday morning which is primetime breakfast hours; thankfully they were not crowded at all, which was great for us and we were seated right away. Our server was quick to wait on us, and provided some recommendations. I ordered the Bourbon Street which is a chicken and waffles dish and my husband got the triple cheese omelette with a side of home fries. Our food was delivered fresh and hot to our table probably within 10 minutes. The waffle was delicious with perfectly seasoned chicken and it had a delicious syrup on the top, yummy! My only complaint is I could have used a little more syrup but I'm sure I could have asked for it. My husband really enjoyed his cheesy omelette and the home fries were seasoned nicely. Breakfast for two people including drinks cost us about $40 which is pretty standard for around here. We definitely enjoyed it and are looking forward to coming back and trying more things.

    Above average food quality, reasonable price, has enough parking lots, convenient, easy to find. A place good for brunch, but paying extra 4% of merchant fee was not a good experience, other than that, very satisfied.

    My sis and I were out looking for a good breakfast and found ourselves at Blue Mahoe!! And we are SO GLAD we did! Let's start with the service, Nikki our waitress was the sweetest young lady! So bubbly, answering all our menu questions and was a joy the entire visit! Now to the FOOD!!! This place is AMAZING! The pancakes were so buttery, fluffy with delicious crispy edges! Our omelettes were so so good!!! Literally no complaints from food, service or atmosphere. Blue Mahoe is now on our lists of best breakfast in Destin, we'll be back!

    Spicy crab scramble is to die for... seasoned to perfection, crispy but soft in the middle.

    Chelsea our server was up beat kind and accommodating. She has great customer service skills and very attentive! I would recommend this Place to everyone!

It looked like a nice, relaxing, elevated restaurant we could relax at after a day of excursions. It really wasn't that. After spending most of our days eating at the themed surf restaurants that decorate with shark heads, surfboards and tiki lights. We had hoped this would be a change, it's really not. It may not be grossly decorated with those tiki-style items, but most certainly is that same type of restaurant. It's not elegant, it's not elevated and its most certainly, not relaxing. The food was very good, the service from our waitress, Savannah was mediocre. She seemed bored or maybe having a bad night and was doing her best to cover it with a smile. We ate up at the skybar which does have a very lovely view. The high-top table and chairs are uncomfortable. My wife and I had to come off the chairs to stand next to the table for a few moments because the chairs were so uncomfortable. As far as their food goes, I had the shrimp tacos. They were made with very fresh tasting ingredients and the shrimp wasdelicious. At least the 2 pieces per taco they came with. Most of what was in the taco was just the filling. $22.00 for two tacos I expected more shrimp. My wife's Grouper Moreno and the conch fritter appetizer were both delicious. Dessert was the salted caramel cheesecake which was good, but ridiculously sweet (as you'd expect it to be) Overall, the food was very good though the tacos could have included more shrimp then they did. The service was just okay. The restaurant itself is nice, but not the quiet relaxing place it looks like on their website. It's just another surf themed style restaurant, without all the gaudy decorations.

We did make a reservation a while in advance but it was not needed. There was only one other group dining at the restaurant while we were there. It's a huge restaurant so it was a little awkward saying we had a reservation when literally no one else was there lol. The food was good. Large portions. I had fresh oysters to start and I liked these. I then had a fried fish sandwich and I really liked the "comeback sauce" they put on it. Breaded really nicely and good flavor. Most of the people in our group enjoyed their meal! My friend has a dairy allergy and the server swore there was no dairy in her food but I think something may have slipped in because she wasn't feeling too great for a majority of the dinner following her appetizer of soft pretzels and entree of a salad.
