    We sat at the bar on a very busy night but the 2 girls behind the bar were awesome and didn't miss a beat. Food was also great.

    It was lacking seasoning and didn't taste like gumbo at all.

    There are a lot of advertisements for Schooners which can sometimes be a bad sign however this spot…read morewas one of our favorites from our trip to PCB. Tons of parking (large lot across the street, smaller lot right in front and another just around the corner) local vibe, friendly staff, great food and even better views. If the views are super important to you, ask for a high top table. Our low top was near the back door so we could easily see out but I could see where your view could be obstructed from other spots. Happy to continue to support this local business!

As the sign reads, "Last Local Beach Club". If you are looking for the ultimate Panama City Beach experience, Schooners is the place to be. There is just something about the atmosphere here. It is open, airy, and very laid back. There was a slight wait to be seated and there were people already waiting. They told us 15-20 minutes, but sat us in about 7 minutes. When we entered the restaurant, I was disappointed to see half the place with open tables, and wondered why they told us 15-20 minutes. Very weird. A little disconnected here. We were seated and our server was quick to meet us. We ordered drinks and the following apps: Loco Shrimp $13.00 Deep-fried shrimp tossed in sweet chili buffalo sauce served with celery & bleu cheese dressing or ranch; Loco Wings $9.00 Crisp & juicy... The perfect hangover cure or perfect anytime, tossed in sweet chili buffalo sauce, served with celery & bleu cheese dressing or ranch; Smoked Tuna Dip $15.00 Served with tortilla chips & sliced jalapeños; and Fried Founder Bites $12.00 Golden fried founder bites served with tartar sauce. For Entrees, we ordered The Flounder Tacos, Bacon Blue Salad, Chicken Fingers, East End Fish Tacos, and Jerked Chicken Sandwich. We also had sides of fries and hush puppies (they were the perfect level of sweet, savory, and a fresh crunch.) The sodas and teas were all free refills. Everything we ordered came out cooked perfectly...to my liking. The buffalo sauce was a little tame for my taste. The Flounder tasted a bit "fishy" but still good nonetheless. The Jerked Chicken was the winner for me. It was cooked perfectly, well but juicy. I added bacon and it just was the "icing on the cake." Would definitely recommend and will absolutely be back.

Open-air seating overlooking the water with two bars, because clearly Hunt's understands priorities. Whether you want chill and cozy or breezy and scenic, they've got you covered. We didn't take any pictures, and honestly, that should tell you everything. The food, the vibe, the laughs--way too busy having a great time to pull out a phone. Everything we've ever ordered has been fantastic. Truly, you cannot go wrong here. Close your eyes, point at the menu, and congratulations--you chose wisely. One day I will work up the nerve to order the fish throats. Great food, great ambiance, great memories. Hunt's isn't just a restaurant--it's part of the trip. See you next time... probably upstairs... possibly after fish throats.

They went through renovation since the 2018 hurricane losing the original hole in the wall feel, but added additional seating to accommodate many patrons. I ordered a dozen of their Louisianas and the seafood gumbo. The oysters were briny and the gumbo was rich and savory. Hunt's is a stop one should make if you love oysters.

He was friendly, helpful, and accomplished. He made some helpful suggestions and made sure that we enjoyed our evening from start to finish. We had a nice table, but there are a handful of small booths that sit across from the oyster bar and have no view at all, so I'd request something near the water when you make your reservation (something I highly recommend.) We chose the calamari for our appetizer and it was simply delicious!!! It was so good we hated to stop eating it so we didn't run out of room for our entrees! I had the grouper piccata, grouper perfectly cooked to flaky goodness, on top of some savory spinach and tasty mashed potatoes. My husband ordered the prime rib which was a generous portion, served with mashed potatoes and green beans. Delicious! I wish they offered a baked potato and some sort of bread. They have hush puppies but they are not complimentary. Small details but would be much appreciated. Hunter said he had a surprise for us and brought a complimentary dessert for us to share! Such a nice touch! (Again, since it was our anniversary.) it was their praline bowl with fresh fruit, ice cream, and a bit of chocolate sauce. Again, soooo good! I highly recommend Grand Marlin. Parking is plentiful, service is excellent and the food is top notch. Dinner begins at 3 and they also have a Sunday brunch. Enjoy! And ask for Hunter. He's an exceptional server!
