    Tawni was excellent and recommended items to try on the menu which was amazing! Her service was A+!!

    We went to The Edge on a Friday night without a reservation, during dinner time. We were able to sit at the bar without a wait and received full dinner service. Cooper was our bartender and she was great! She made the drinks perfectly and we could definitely tell there was alcohol in our drinks. I ordered the pasta with seafood. Going to be honest, it needed more flavor. It was incredibly bland but the shrimp and scallops were good perfectly. The star of the show was the whole fried snapper! No flavor was lacking and I should've gotten that. Overall, 4 out of 5! Service was great, ambiance was upbeat and everyone seemed to be happy to be working. Def will go again!

    We stumbled on this place accidentally when our uber dropped us at the wrong restaurant. Definitely got lucky! I had the burger which was great and my partner absolutely loved the fish! Excellent service, great view! Definitely putting on our restaurants for when we visit again

    For the patio area you need a reservation so be sure to make one if you want to sit with a beach view. We didn't have one so just saw in the restaurant which is open air. We had calamari and baked oysters to start. Both were amazing. Unfortunately, for my mahi mahi tacos I ordered the fish they served me was spoiled. They did take it off the bill and replace it with a different item but still left a bad taste in my mouth (literally). I opted for the chicken after that which was okay but not what I wanted when coming to a seafood place. Service was not the best. I was brought a salad with no dressing, a kid's meal with no dipping sauce, and had to ask for a refill multiple times because our waitress was too busy having conversations and giggling with other staff members. Probably wouldn't come back here again.

    Cool place to eat. You can sit inside or out. Bottom or top deck. It's breezy on top deck, but really nice. The red snapper and Brussel sprouts are delicious. Didn't have to wait to be seated. We were there about 2 and got seated right away. Staff is great. I see they help one another out. We had great service.

    Our food and service was excellent. This was our first time trying this restaurant. It won't be our last.

    We had the grouper and pappardelle pasta. Our food and service was excellent. It was our first time eating here. It won't be our last. I wanted to try the shrimp and grits but they weren't able to accommodate my request to leave out the kale and corn.

    Not that good. Box mashed potatoes. Tap water that tastes like aquarium water., fishy fish. Mediocre french fries. The pros: friendly staff, good drinks, reasonable prices, awesome views.

    Chocolate cake

    Great place to eat and the vibes were amazing being on the water watching all the boats come in for the day!!! Taylor was phenomenal! She recommenfed two great dishes- Grouoer and Shrink Boil! and asked if we were celebrating anything. We were- our 29th anniversary and she brought a piece of chocolate cake out for us to share. Yummy drinks and the food was delicious. Show less

    We had group dinner here. 18 people on a quiet rainy cold January Tuesday. We had a great time with fantastic service. The food top to bottom was outstanding. Apps were all good. Oysters and other shellfish were top notch. I had the grouper demonte. It came with a butter sauce, fried Brussels sprouts and garlic mashed. Excellent. It was one of those dishes that when you come back you want to order it again. Eat here.

    Fried Calamari
    Silofa O.

    I absolutely loved the atmosphere and the FOOD was so fresh . At least the seafood was . My ahi wonton tacos were the BEST I have had in a while. So much flavor ! My friend had the Mahi tacos that I didn't get a photo of but she raved about how amazing those were. Unfortunately my other friend was not too fond of the seafood boil. The shrimp seemed like it was overcooked to me it was undercooked but overall our experience with the service and meals were GREAT! I will back for sure

    While fish

    Skybar at Edge offers some of the best views in Destin. You get great views of the harbor. They have multiple levels and a large dining area. They offer live entertainment most evenings. They also have great food. We got the whole fish and it can be shared between two people. Can't recommend this spot enough great food, views, and service.

    Smoked mahi dip
    Tiffany M.

    There were no complaints with our meal here. Service was a bit slow but it was a holiday so some leeway is to be given there. We tried some cocktails, old fashioned and strawberry fields. They were good, but a true old fashioned isn't loaded with ice it's a single cube. Always a a downer when it's made with more than a single cube. We tried the ribeye, filet, crab boil, grouper Moreno, smoked fish dip, coconut shrimp kids cheeseburger, chocolate pie and key lime pie. All the dishes were delicious definitely recommend the Brussels as the accompanying side. Every one cleared their plates. Great ambiance too. Just eat here.

    Two orders of Crab Boils. Miller Lite
    Michael G.

    Food was incredible! We were looking for crab or a seafood boil, and this was surprisingly one of the few places in the near area that had crab. Very good price for the crab boil too! $44 for one pound of crab legs, half a cob of corn, two potatoes, and a piece of hot sausage. Great seasoning on top of it all too! Just two of us walked in and the lady at the front told us maybe an hour and a half wait for downstairs, but upstairs was a seat yourself situation. We walked up the steps and there was one two-person table right there so it worked out perfectly. The girls at the bar provided excellent service. I think there was a total of 3-4 girls that checked in on us throughout the night. We put our order in with our main waitress then another girl came by to ask if I needed a refill and she got me that along with a cup of gumbo from downstairs. The gumbo was the best I ever had. It came with about 10 crackers, had chunks of fish and duck in it as well. The view was awesome, got to watch boat go in and out of the harbor. We also enjoyed people watching everyone at the packed upstairs bar. It was a great night. Our total came to around $120 after two orders of crab boils, a cup of gumbo, and 3-4 Millers. Service was excellent. Left $150 total since we had a few waitresses that took good care of us.

We ordered: -Beef tartare: this was delicious & one of the best tartares I've had. Generous portion. -Bone marrow & escargot: this was meh. It was hard to scoop the marrow out & hardly anything came out. Would be better to cut the bone length wise like other places. Also, the bread the escargot was on top of was wayyy too thick. -Foie gras torchon: rich & really delicious. Perfect ratio & balance of flavors to balance out the fattiness of the foie gras. -Blue crab pappardelle: this was amazing! If you're a crab lover, this is a must order. Generous portion of crab & great al dente pasta. -Husband ordered fish of the day (branzino I think?): fish was nicely cooked, but the sauce was inedible. Was way too sweet, like candy. -Kids had the fettuccine Alfredo & wagyu cheeseburger with fries from the kids menu. I thought both were overly salty, but they all enjoyed it. Fries were exceptionally good, but again, just too salty. Overall, we found some orders to be either exceptionally good or underwhelming. Service was attentive & we were given great wine recommendations to accompany our dinners. We enjoyed our meal & had plenty for lunch leftover with the generous portions.

We started with the tzatziki, shrimp wonton rolls, and potstickers. All three were great, but the shrimp wonton rolls were my favorite. For my main, I ordered the grilled shrimp pita (loaded with shrimp) with fries--definitely hit the spot. Around the table we also had burgers, a Mediterranean bowl, and pork belly tacos, and everyone loved their meals. We were so full we didn't even make it to dessert.

If you just want to stay in, it is a good alternative and to be honest it was better than some of the surrounding restaurants.
