    Million Dollar Bacon
    Samuel C.

    Stopped in for breakfast, but thanks to my tight schedule (and poor life planning), I only had time to experience one thing: the so-called Million Dollar Bacon. Spoiler alert -- it didn't cost a million bucks, and eating it didn't exactly make me feel like I owned a yacht... but honestly? It was still stupidly good. Perfectly cooked -- not burnt, not weirdly floppy -- just that magical middle ground where bacon becomes a personality trait. Dripping with sweet syrup and a little cayenne kick, it's the kind of flavor combo that makes you question every bad decision you've ever made (like only ordering one). I would've absolutely gone in for Round Two, but the clock said no. Life said no. My soul said yes, but nobody listens to that guy. Million dollar bacon, five-minute experience, lifelong bitterness.

    Clean! Friendly staff! Food was prepared well and delicious. Brought out in decent waiting time. Eggs were perfectly cooked.

    my first time here with my three year-old grandson and I highly recommend. The service was unbelievable, and the ambience is comfortable and quaint and very clean and My grandson loved his grilled cheese and large portion of assorted fresh fruit and my avocado toast with egg was on the most amazing whole grainbread. I can't wait to come back.

    The food was great and cooked exactly as ordered. The service was excellent even when they were very busy. The parking was convenient. The decorations were moden. It is a must try location.

    This place was AMAZING and I'm not even a big fan of breakfast food. My boyfriend and I went around 1:50pm on a Saturday so they weren't very busy like they probably are in the morning. The overall ambiance was very chill and aesthetically pleasing. I would definitely go back.

    Awesome food all the time at First Watch, no matter what you get. Great decor, clean, very friendly servers. Get the Million Dollar Bacon. Breakfast tacos are awesome!

    I give this place 5 stars!.... So little story, I had 1st Watch for the 1st time In Orlando in 2019. I had no idea it was a chain and had an app for reservations... When I was Yelping places for brunch in Destin, and knew this was our last meal before heading back to Atlanta, I decided what the hell.... I like this place because they have many options, and the food is fresh and good quality. This location has a nice patio area and our waiter was super chill and laid back, answering questions we had and being fast with service. Nothing bad to say here...5 stars!

    The gravy they put on the biscuits is from a can and it tastes like it. The bacon was good.

    BLUF: Excellent breakfast all day and delicious, fresh donuts in a diner-like atmosphere…read more My party of three arrived at The Donut Hole to a long-ish line down the ramp and I was wondering if it's worth it. It is! The Donut Hole most certainly has diner vibes and I suspect the booths are original to its 1978 origins - both of which made for a nostalgic experience. Although named for the sweet, fried confections, The Donut Hole has a huge menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner items. My table all ordered breakfast even though it was lunch time. The breakfast was awesome - omelettes, pancakes, poached eggs, cheese grits, coffee and the most delicious rye bread. I had the sausage and cheese omelet and there was something about it that made it better than other omelettes I've had. Also, I loved the rye bread - it was sliced thicker than what I am used to and it was very pillowy. I enjoyed it dry but it was also good with a little butter. We waited about 20 or so minutes for a table, but once seated we enjoyed prompt, attentive, excellent service. And's let's not forget to talk about the fresh made donuts! Oh my, there were a lot of flavors to choose from and none of them disappointed. Initially I went with a chocolate frosted and Bavarian cream filled donut. But then a fresh tray of key line donuts came out and I had to get one of those too. My sister ordered a few and we took them back to our rental, cut them in quarters and had a donut tasting party. Delicious! I am looking forward to my return trip to The Donut Hole. A visit to Santa Rosa Beach would not be complete without a stop at The Donut Hole.

    Holy tortugas! This place rocks and no wonder it is packed, the word is out…read moreVery smart scheme, they don't need any advertising because it is by word of mouth, our next door neighbor from Pensacola told us about the donuts and other items in the menu I ordered an omelette with mushrooms and cheese and it was like they would have told me to go in the kitchen and make it myself disregarding how big my stomach and my appetite would be, very generous that not even the picture makes justice to how well and generous was. Do you think I left any in my plate? no sir! Wife ordered two fried eggs that come with hash browns and biscuit and she barely finished too. Kathy was our server with a smile from ear to ear that made our day, very patient and took our order quickly and accurately. Considering the number of people in the restaurant our food came out quickly. We asked Kathy about something we saw next table and could not guess what it was on the menu. Apple fritters she said so we ordered one to go, well have it with coffee tomorrow There is a well known breakfast franchise across the highway but they are no competition to the Donut Hole, just simply there is no other place I have been in the Nation that serves as good as this and I have been to quite a few, I wish there was one near home. Place is well lit and inviting with enough personnel to tackle the crowd Place is crazy busy and when we left the line was all the way to the front porch Are we coming back? you bet we will in the week and a half we have left in Paradise. Only about a mile from Topsail Hill State Park and next time we will take the bikes, easy ride on the bike lane on Highway 98

I heard they were known for their crab cakes, but I wasn't a huge fan. My blackened grouper was absolutely delicious. The seasoning wasn't over powering and the fish was cooked to perfection. The salad was my favorite part crazy enough. It was a tomato basil vinaigrette that was out of this world with flavor. It had a sweet base to it that brought out the basil flavor that made us all guess what the ingredients were. What I really enjoyed about this place was that the owner was walking around all night checking on the tables and making sure everyone was enjoying themselves and that the food was perfection. Great dinner spot and really cool vibe with all the red lights and fun paintings everywhere.

We came in a Saturday morning, to be expected, there was an hour and a half wait. There is little to no parking. We had to make our self a parking spot in the mud. The parking lot had the biggest potholes, it looked like Louisiana!! It was pouring rain so the puddles were huge. There was nonstop traffic in & out. Cars were stopping because they couldn't move on the parking lot. We ending up waiting for about 2 hours. When we got in, we were brought to a table immediately. We ordered a Nutella coffee and YUM!! Husband ordered the stuffed ham & cheese croissant, it was good. I ordered the spring steak omelette AND OMGGGGGG. The garlic Parmesan tots were DELISH. They had a rosemary taste and it was probably the best I ever had. Then we got the berry pancakes & they were very good! They were fluffy and cake like. The berries were fresh and they had cream cheese flavor. The presentation of the food was amazing. Service was amazing. I would LOVE to come back.

Food and coffee were very delicious and very beautiful. We got Pistachio signature coffee, it had Dulce de Leche on the cup with Pistachio crumble. It was delicious and picture perfect. For food we got Omelete Sancho Panza and Pork Belly Ceviche. The omelete Sancho panza was stuffed with chorizo, Bacon, tomato, spring onions and cream cheese topped with melted mozzarella and Spanish Manchego cheese and roasted red pepper. Everything together was delicious. The pork belly Ceviche had avocado with red onions, red pepper, cilantro, lemon juice and smashed fried green plantains. A bite with everything on the fried green plantains was to die for. We will be visiting again for sure next time we are in Destin.

Coming to this location for the first time proved that streak still continues. The LUMP BLUE CRAB BISQUE - Sherry, Cream, Crushed Herb Croutons to start was fabulous. The MACADAMIA-NUT-CRUSTED SNAPPER - Hawaiian Red Sea Salt, Almond Rice, Grilled Asparagus, Wasabi Soy Beurre Blanc was just as good. Yes, something I usually pass on entirely, dessert, the key lime pie was great too. The only disappointment was the piña colada I ordered. The "bar" is set high on this one by the Marlin Bar in Orlando so I'll give them a pass. Service was very attentive and the place itself is brand new. I wish the developer would have made more parking closer to the buildings. In the off season it was nuts, coming here during peak season is going to be a challenge.

We are typically there at least three out of the seven days we stay in town. Unfortunately, after our experience on Mother's Day, we do not plan on returning. We arrived around 4:30 p.m. with a party of nine, hoping to enjoy some of the happy hour menu and pricing. We were kept waiting in the front until exactly 5:00 p.m., even though it was obvious that tables on the back deck were already available. Once seated, our server was polite and did a good job taking care of us. During conversation, we mentioned the long wait, and he explained that it is apparently "protocol" to delay seating larger parties until after 5:00 so they do not receive happy hour pricing. If that is truly company policy, I find it extremely disappointing and dishonest. We felt manipulated instead of welcomed. The food quality was also far below what we have experienced in past years. The crusted snapper that was recommended to us was terrible and had to be sent back. My grandson's burger was also very poor quality and honestly unpleasant. The only dishes our table generally agreed were decent were the squash casserole bowl and the chicken parmesan. Another disappointment was learning that bread is no longer served. For families with children, that was always something simple that helped while waiting on meals. Between the removal of those small touches, the higher prices, and the noticeable decline in food quality, the restaurant no longer feels worth returning to. I'm not writing this to get anyone in trouble. I'm writing because this restaurant used to be one of the highlights of our vacation every year, and it is frustrating to see the experience decline this much. Chris Tomlinson
