It's a beautiful place, service is nice but very rushed once you're seating. Portion size and selection on the menus could be better and easier to read and find items. read more

Pineapple Willy's - Blackened Mahi Mahi with pineapple sauce. - Seafood Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

This is my second review. The food was good when they brought our plates out my wife's plate was really hot. He handed it to her. She almost had to drop it. They made her fingers pink. Normally they tell you when a plate is hot. read more

Server fine but food not so much. Waited almost an hour and both got mahi -mahi. Not much flavor and very dry.

1st time here and we enjoyed our time. We got there at 8:45pm on a Wednesday and had a wait time of 45 minutes. The place was packed. It was okay due to it being located on the beach. Our waitress, Nicole was Great! The food was hot and fresh. Good price and We weren't rushed due to it being closing time. Great outdoor seating! Nice beachy vibe. Crowded but not all up on others. Only complaint is that the parking lot lights were almost completely turned off. That should never be until after all of your patrons are gone. read more

Great service! We had a party of 17 and the meal and service went off without a hitch! The waitress was excellent! The food was good. It was very loud, but what do you expect with a restaurant on the beach that serves that many customers. Definitely recommend. read more

If you're on the hunt for a beachfront spot with fresh seafood keep looking, you got this bro! Honestly the best part of our visit was the service our waiter was fantastic! If the food had been as good as him, this place would definitely be a must-try. But, unfortunately, it felt more like a tourist trap. The food tasted like it came straight out of the freezer and was just reheated. Even the condiments were prepackaged in plastic packets straight from the manufacturer! So if you find yourself here with the family, congratulations, you've been punk'd! But hey if you're 21 and on spring break looking to mingle maybe you'll enjoy the crowd. Just know what you're getting into and it ain't a solid meal. read more

Fried basket (3/5): Not a fan of the fried oyster and how wet they were. The fried fish was decent but nothing special. The fried clams were bad. There was hardly any clam meat. The shrimp was ok but could've been crispier. The hush puppies had a weird flavor that I couldn't identify. The corn was just boiled and flavorless. The fries were fine. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this) read more

Had a nice time coming to Pineapple Willy's for the first time. Had a shorter wait than expected. Was able to sit outside with a nice view of the beach. Appreciate the "windows" to block the wind. Ordered the chicken sandwich and fries and they were delicious. read more

Pineapple Willy's is not just hype, it is LEGIT! Great food and portions for the prices. Service was excellent and fast. Indoor and Outdoor dining options are a plus! Expect a 30-60 minute wait but TOTALLY worth it. Shop at the store or grab a tasty beverage in the meantime. read more

Pineapple Willy's - First time eating Maui but he loved it. Wait time was about 2 hours though but it was a one time experience. - Seafood Near Me - Panama City Beach, Florida

I honestly love the food at Pineapple Willy's! They have great deals, and their specialty ribs really are special. The meat quite literally fell right off the bone. The vibe is super fun and chatty, but definitely not annoying, and the service was great since they checked up on us just the right amount. Also, you have to check out the merch shop, it's hilarious! Love the logo, ended up buying a couple of shirts. read more

The food was delicious, yes there's a wait but they have plenty for you to do while waiting wether it's the gift shop, or the appetizer/drink bar. And then service was excellent in both the bar area and restaurant. We ate in the pier and it was a whole vibe. We love Pineapple Willie's and can't wait until our next trip to PCB to have it again! read more

Went to Pineapple Willy's for dinner. My wife had the shrimp and grits. The Gouda cheese in the grits was delicious. The grilled shrimp was well seasoned. I had the caesar Salad with grilled shrimp . The salad was very fresh and had great flavor. I had a coconut key lime beer that was smooth and crisp with great key lime flavor. Our server Andrew was great . The restaurant sits right on the beach and is quite beautiful. This is a great place with lots of craft beers. read more

Such a fun atmosphere, the food was great, and loved sitting outside and watching the sunset over the water while we ate.

Was close to our hotel and was always bust so we had to try it. Honestly I just want to say it's absolutely nothing special. Small menu, not much to choose from, and the food was just ok. They did however let us bring our pup in so I was happy that they are pet friendly. Mahi fish and chips was tasty and a good amount of food. Mahi fish with pineapple salsa was also good. We did not have a wait at all which was great, was about 3:30 pm. read more

Great place! I think we waited maybe 30 minutes for a table but we got drinks and pretzel bites and listened to live music while we waited. We sat outside which had great views of the ocean. We had the mahi basket and the Caribbean salad and both were really good. The mahi bites just melted in your mouth. The service was good. We got to keep our cups as a souvenir. When we are back in town we will definitely be back here! read more

We usually love Pineapple Willy's. We come at least once every trip, but this time may have our last. First:The Good The view was pretty and the service was good. My Pineapple Willy was delicious. Now: the bad! We always eat the garden salad topped with Mahi Mahi. This was the worst Mahi Mahi I've ever had. It tasted like it was canned. It was tough and tasted old and fishy. It was bad enough that we will probably not be back for a long while. read more

No complaints from us! My dad recommended PWs so we stopped in for lunch. The space is massive and it was super windy outside so we went for the inside seating where we still got to enjoy the views but in peace. Our waitress was fabulous! We tried some of their signature drinks in their refillable cups that we got to take home which will remind us always of the great time we had. We even got to use them again at Wicked Wheel for an economical refill - what a treat!! For our meals: my fiance got the bucket of ribs. He was very pleased with his choice. I had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries and it was a fantastic choice! The best part was the speedy service. We hardly waited a second for our food. We were so impressed. They also offer a generous military discount which is excellent. We were very pleased with the experience. Many thanks to my dad for the recommendation! read more

The wait time was a bit ridiculous, but once we got a table it was great. We had the island nachos for an appetizer, and the pineapple salsa that came with it was amazing. The Cajun shrimp Alfredo was good but it had a Mac n cheese feel to it more than an Alfredo dish with the spiral noodles. We sat out on the pier which was nice and the service was great as well. The price was high and the wait was long or it would have been 5 stars. read more

Updated review! Still delicious!! We made a return visit to Pineapple Willie's with last year's signature glass in tow. PW's was having 25% off entire menu plus 5-6pm Power Hour with 50% off all food & drinks!! It was amazing! Such a great value for customers. There was a crowd to be sure but the staff at PW's was so prepared. They were efficient in getting everyone seated and getting drinks out to tables. The food soon rolled out and the quality was top notch! I had grouper with pineapple salsa which was perfectly cooked. What a deal! Hats off to front & back of house staff. Great job and thanks for giving your customers great deals!!! read more

The food was pretty good. The service was great. But the view was amazing. We had a great time. I didn't get many pictures. I did take two. My sandwich was really good. I had the Mahi Mahi BLT. I only wish that the tarter sauce was made in house and not in a container. My wife had the Island Nachos said she loved. My kids ate off the kids menu, so no reviews there. Overall a great experience. read more

The wait is absolutely ridiculous. We got there at 8:20 and put ourselves on the waitlist on a Monday Night and we were told it was a hour and a half wait and they close at 10 pm we were 87th in line for a table. We ended up leaving why take tables if your going to close at 10 pm read more

We waited about 20 mins, but we also got there before dinner rush. The food was okay nothing great, the server had a great attitude but was alittle weird about showing the receipt which was on a small tablet and hurried through its co tent in which we later found was inaccurate when we looked through the receipt which was texted to us, not worth the money, sorry. Atmosphere was good read more

This is an easy and convenient location, but it's a tourist trap with primarily fried food. The service at the bar was quick and easy.

It seem like this place appeals to the tourist crowd but I like it! There are three separate places built into one located on the beach. A souvenir shop, bar and restaurant all tied in together! We came here as a group of 8 and got seated within 20 minutes even though the line was long. Before I set down, I had to get a large drink in a souvenir cup. It was good! Our food was good and nobody had any complaints. I especially enjoyed my blackened shrimp. The waiter did a fantastic job of managing our table considering his work load. Overall this place was great and I recommend trying it out if you're in town. read more

Great service, stunning views, and we love the food! We stop by there when in town. Their drinks are also excellent as well. I had a strawberry pina colada so yummy. Mixing half strawberry daiquiri half pina colada. As busy as they were, two people, first available, we got in right away. read more

A must visit for the crowd, the ambiance overlooking the sea, the excellent service and very good food & beverage despite the 45 minute wait. They operate at top efficiency. Grouper is excellent- especially with the Crawfish Julie sauce. Shrimp pasta was good as well. Drinks are classy tropical. Also a decent beer list. Our server, Jordan, was knowledgeable as well as efficient. read more

atmosphere was lacking, it all felt very "get them in, pay, get them out". Waiter was nice, we gave him a big tip cause he was sweet. Food was ok, nothing remarkable. read more

3 years in a row 5 stars! We love Pineapple Willy's. We ordered drinks all week from the walk up bar and when we sat down for dinner we had a blast. Beautiful views from the pier, delicious food, and fantastic service! We ordered all our favorites: Gator bites, grilled Mahi Mahi, Mahi Mahi sandwich, shrimp basket, crawfish, mashed potatoes and drinks. We enjoyed the atmosphere on a great night! I can't recommend PW's enough if you're in PCB... it's a must visit! read more

We decided to stop for a quick snack and drinks. We were seated right away and our server Gabby was the bomb. Great to answer questions and make suggestions. We decided on the Island nachos and an orange lush drink in a to-go cup. The nachos were really unique and delicious with pineapple salsa, queso and pulled pork. The seating on the pier with the gorgeous beach and Gulf views truly made for the perfect atmosphere. This is a place that everyone has to go at least once. read more
