Our waiter was super friendly and they were very accommodating with getting a car seat chair for our newborn so he could enjoy dinner with us. He was also very attentive, easily explained the menu to us, answered any questions we had, and was very prompt at helping us with anything we'd needed. The food was phenomenal, presented very well, and tasted amazing. We had ordered the red fish (special for the day) and ended up getting key lime pie for dessert and we were not disappointed one bit. This is a pricey restaurant, $50 +\- per person, but you definitely get your money's worth with what you get. Overall, this is a great restaurant to go to for celebrations, date nights, special occasions, or just for that fine dining feeling. There's no dress code, but I'd personally recommend wearing your Sundays best (I'd wore leggings and a T-shirt and just felt underdressed). The restaurant was very family friendly so I loved that aspect. Definitely will be coming back to try more items from the menu!

This was recommended to me by a friend and did not disappoint. One of my favorite seafood…read morerestaurants I've been to. The menu has a lot of great options. I got the Daily Special (which was a Red Snapper stuffed with crab) and was great. I also tried the Destin Snapper, the Crab Cakes, and some of the Seafood Gumbo. All of which were very good. The Daily Special was my favorite. We had a larger group and did not have to wait at 7:00. The setting was great. Outdoor seating is along a bay, a great spot to view the sun setting. It does get hot out there if you go too early, we were there in July. Parking is extremely limited and they do have valet ($9 as of 7/2026). The line for the valet was very long. We got lucky to find a parking spot, but plan on waiting for parking in one way or another.

Dewey Destin's Seafood Restaurant was probably one of the best seafood restaurants we've been to on…read moreour trip! Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was fast, and the prices were very affordable, especially for the quality of the food. The ordering process was simple--you order at the front, find a seat, and they call your name when your food is ready. The restaurant is also right on the bay, which made for a beautiful view while we ate. I ordered the stuffed shrimp, and it was absolutely delicious. It came out piping hot, and the sauces served with it were amazing and added even more flavor. Everyone in my group really enjoyed their meals. Overall, I would definitely come back and highly recommend Dewey Destin's if you're looking for fresh seafood, quick service, beautiful waterfront views, and great prices!

Dewey Destin's Seafood Restaurant, a family-owned business, may not look like the most attractive…read morerestaurant from the water, but if you can look past that, it's a really enjoyable place to eat. A fun detail is that the Destin family and the city of Destin have been closely connected ever since Leonard Destin, Dewey's great-great-grandfather, founded the settlement in 1835. Our server recommended the sheepshead, a local fish species. Until then, I had never even heard of sheepshead, which made the recommendation all the more interesting. We always appreciate tips like that, as trying something new is part of the fun of traveling. It tasted very good, although it was topped with teriyaki sauce and served with remoulade sauce. As a result, you don't really get much of the fish's natural flavor, but as a dish it was very enjoyable. The service was friendly and efficient, and we liked the place so much that we'll definitely be back. It helps that we also find the history behind it fascinating. The menu is quite varied, with plenty of dishes that sound tempting.

He tried a bite of my shrimp though and said he would get my dish instead next time. I got a margarita (was on happy hour) and my husband got a strawberry daiquiri. 0/10 recommend. Both were not good. Very watered down tasting. We got there at 3p and it was packed but we were seated immediately and had all of our food within 10-15 minutes. Super quick service.

As a conservative Christian family, that's not a conversation we expected to have over dinner while on vacation. Definitely a conversation that would have been far easier to explain at Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey I believe everyone should be treated with respect, but I also believe families have different values. For us, it made what should have been a relaxing family meal uncomfortable. Because of that, we'll likely choose to dine elsewhere in the future.

We were with a group and they forgot 2 of our meals and also forgot our drinks from the bar a few times. I'm glad that we tried it and really enjoyed the food, but, based on the experience, I'm not sure if we'll be back. They also charge an automatic 20% gratuity no matter what the group size is.
