As someone who has been reviewing for Yelp for a long time, this has to be the absolute worst…read moredining experience I've ever had. I mean that very seriously. On Saturday, 2/28, I came into the restaurant at 6:15pm with a group of 6. Looking around the restaurant, there were only 3 tables taken. The Hostess wanted to put us a table, but it wouldn't fit us all. We asked her where to sit and she told us to decide on seating. We had to suggest to put a table together and started to move it ourselves, then she helped. Just odd because we had no idea if they had a table to seat us. While waiting for the server, the table in front of us asked for to-go boxes and was told they only have the bottoms, no lids. She brought plastic wrap to cover their leftovers. They were not happy and left without a lot of their leftovers. Our service came out and was very sweet. She honestly was the nicest person at that restaurant and she deserves to go somewhere that she can make better money. She told us they only had beer and wine, but only a few on the wine list. Sometimes if it was asked for, they said they didn't have it. I stuck to a Coke. We ordered as follows: Me: Loaded Baked Potato (yes that's it.) Person 2: wedge salad Person 3: cornbread skillet Person 4 and 5 had burgers. One had cheddar cheese with everything on it. The other had everything BUT pickles. We waited about an hour for our food. Person 5's burger came out and the fries were cold. I'm not meaning lukewarm, I mean COLD. Like out a fridge. They hadn't even been cooked all the way. Person 4's burger came out without cheese. Both of those were sent back to get that fixed. Person 4's burger came back with a piece of half melted (what looked like) American cheese on the bottom of the burger and the burger was BURNT. I mean, hockey puck burnt. When the fries were sent back, we could hear the cook SCREAMING AND THROWING THINGS, yelling that we "weren't right" and he "had just took those up". The server even felt them and agreed with us. My baked potato came out hard. I couldn't really even eat it. It was hard, bland and it was covered in sour cream, even the outside. A runner came over to bring some salt and pepper and I asked her if she wouldn't mind letting us talk to a manager. Everyone there said I was polite in asking, as we just wanted to tell her what was going on, not trying to get anything free. When I asked, she threw her hands up in the air, slapped her hips, rolled her eyes and stomped away. The people around us even looked at her. They also could hear the cook yelling. We did see another couple send their food back as well while we were waiting. The manager comes over and when we tell her everything, she tells us she agrees and that she's working on getting better help, as we could see what she was working with there. We just asked her for the check and asked to go. We hear the manager try to talk to the team and the cook begins to scream and talk down to her. Then, he came out and stared at our table. If looks could kill, we would all be dead. The thing is- burgers there are $18. We didn't get anything hard to make but only the salad and the cornbread were fit to eat. They did comp our meal, but we continued to ask them to let us pay. Instead, we ended up giving the money to the server. She can only do what she can and she was so sweet. I do have multiple people who will attest to everything that happened. That was the whole experience. We walked outside and immediately went to get something else to eat. We came to the American because this was our first time in town and we had heard great things about it! Of course, we had seen it on TV as well, so we were very excited. The next night, another couple we knew went there and had the same experience. She was the only table in there and they still took over an hour and her food was terrible. This is absolutely so disappointing. The American used to be THE destination down here but now, it's the one everyone is telling people NOT to go to. We talked to our hotel host and they said they wished we would have asked because they would have told us to stay away. It's a shame. I really hope they can get some new people in there who care about food and making it good! I'd love to come back if they're able to improve and change my review. I do have 5 other people who are willing to attest to this, so as much as I wish it was an exaggeration, it's not.

It was raining when we came, but had it not, it would have been such a great place to walk around and explore. They have a garden area and just such a cute vibe. I felt like I was walking into an upscale farm house...and I loved it! I loved all the decor and the whole vibe, All the food we received at the table was amazing. We had crab balls and basal buttons, both of which were well gone before I could take pictures! Around our table we had a wide variety, 3 Tuna & Truffle, 2 Crabbie Patty, a Beastly Buffalo chicken, a cob salad and sides of curly fries, sweet mashed potatoes, grits, seasonal veggies and soup. Everyone enjoyed their meals tremendously! I wish I had found this place 4 years ago because I would have made it a repeat visit!! I'm updating with one negative...the water. I don't drink soda or sweets, I usually just drink water. The water they brought out tasted like bleached well water, that's really the only way I can describe it. I couldn't drink it, and it had a smell!

This was our 3rd or 4th time having a meal in this beautiful dining room. We'd previously stayed at…read morethe lodge 2 years ago and enjoyed dinner and breakfast. This time, we arrived on "all you can eat shrimp night," which was a Friday. This special (about $30) wasn't on our radar. Instead, we had fried mozzarella sticks with marinara sauce, and entrées of fried chicken (with red potatoes) and fish tacos (with fries). Both turned out to be excellent choices. I really enjoyed the fish tacos, which included a choice of fries or slaw. We also had breakfast in the dining room the next day. Once again I chose tacos and was not disappointed. They were a wonderful combination of flavors. There was a choice of sausage, ham, bacon, or any combination in each of the 3 tacos. If you are sensitive to having lots of sodium in your food, do be careful what you order. Food, atmosphere, and service were great. Make your reservations ahead of time or risk being stuck with a late one... as we did. Weekends get very busy!

And I think this might be our favorite of the week. Definitely off the grid and what you might call a hole in the wall, looks like a local's favorite as well. No dress code, hardly any Wi-Fi, all the waitresses were extremely friendly and very casual with every customer. Everything we ordered was really great. Entrées were not fast to come out, but that's OK too. Went on a Wednesday night about 530. By the time we left at seven there was standing room only on the walkway into the restaurant. Apparently, they are also known for their pies and our regret that we didn't grab one to go. We'll be back!

The exterior is rustic but exactly what it should be on The Forgotten Coast. Very similar to outdoor, or quasi outdoor, restaurants in the larger area. Pull right up, there's unpaved parking all around. Inside is clean but can be a little tacky to the touch from the open windows and ceiling fans churning in the Florida humidity. The business is right on the bay so you get a little breeze, I suppose. Remember, this is the old Florida, the real Florida. If you're expecting frigid AC and hospital cleanliness inside then this isn't the larger area for you - head to Panama City Beach or commercialized Florida. Trust me, I love some ice cold AC, but that's not why you come to the Forgotten Coast. The inside has bar seating and tables. There was a comic performing out back closer to the water and a small crowd in chairs but we remained inside as we were a little tired from our day of travel. The bartender was very knowledgeable and helpful without hovering. The beer was good but I liked the beers at Water Craft Brewery in Apalachicola just a little better. But HELLO NURSE we then ordered the handmade, hand-tossed pizza. It was great! I usually am not a pizza crust aficionado but the crust is sooo tasty! Needless to say the toppings and sauce made the pizza a big wow! Sorry, no photo, I lost my mind in the flavor! If you're in the area for a weekend, or more, I really do recommend this very good local, real-Florida, independent tap room and brewery.
