Due to the heat, we asked to be seated inside, though the patio was quite large. The staff was so, so kind and accommodating. I can't have gluten and asked about specific menu items that would be okay. Anything fried is in shared oil with breaded items, so there's a risk of cross contamination. The waiter recommended the shrimp boil as an option, and oh my gosh. It was SO good. My husband and mom each had a hamburger. My aunt had the redfish, and my dad had the Reuben. All of our food was excellent. My meal took the longest to eat since I had to peel my shrimp. I wouldn't mind sitting outside once the weather cools off a bit. This was a terrific suggestion from my aunt! Also, you can buy t-shirts for $20 each. We got ours. We will definitely be back!

You cant run a restaurant when you walk in 5 mins before opening and turn on the stove. Its called prep work. This is disappointing to say the lease Sticky bun pretty good.

I'll be honest--when we pulled up to Basil & Baxter's Kitchen for a group dinner, I had no idea…read morewhat to expect. From the outside, the place looks small and quite unassuming. But as the saying goes: never judge a book by its cover. We were absolutely blown away by the experience. Despite the modest exterior, the food is nothing short of world-class. I ordered the ribeye, and it was cooked to absolute perfection--tender, flavorful, and easily one of the best steaks I've had in a long time. Since we were a large group, we ended up ordering a significant portion of the menu. Between us, we tried the fish, shrimp, and various pasta plates. It felt like we sampled almost everything they offer, and every single dish was an absolute hit. It's rare to find a place where the entire table is equally impressed with their meal, but Basil & Baxter's pulled it off effortlessly. Beyond the incredible kitchen, the service was outstanding. The staff was attentive, welcoming, and handled our group with the kind of professionalism that makes a night out feel special. If you're in Niceville, do not pass this place up. It might look humble from the street, but the flavors and hospitality inside are massive. We will definitely be back!

I ordered the grilled seafood platter which came with a few bay scallops and small shrimp...scampi style...and a thin filet (mahi).

I ordered one of the most expensive dishes on the menu $29.99 and he ordered a $15.99 coconut chicken salad along with two diet cokes. When we got the check they had calculated the check with a 20% service charge. We asked what it was and was told it was 16% for her and 4% for the kitchen. Nothing based on the service or how good the food was an automatic 20%. No warning at all! As they were seating, another customer that server said have you been to the boathouse before and the customer said yes. So she stated you are aware of the service charge then. The customer said yes. Maybe us saying something about it is why she said that, not sure, but we were never informed and we've never had that explained to us before either.

The food came out fresh and flavorful, and it was exactly what we were hoping for. We did have about a ten-minute wait for a table, but it was the day after Easter, so we expected it to be a little busy, and it honestly was not bad at all. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was great too, really comfortable and easygoing, and it felt like a place you could sit and enjoy your time.

Crafting space, little meeting spots, this is truly a little home spot for the locals and even visitors. I got the s'more's special coffee for July and honestly I was disappointed, for a medium roast for the shots I was disappointed. The flavor was straight cinnamon and I was hoping it was a little stronger. The cinnamon rolls were a hit in the house and Huge for $4. The gluten free Brownie was mine for $3 and honestly I wasn't disappointed. It was really good and soft. My kids even loved it. The staff was super friendly and I would stop back by and try other things next time I'm in. There is plenty of seating and space to snack, chat or just take in a breath of life into your soul. I am going to give it a 4 specifically because I went in for coffee and it lacked for me.

Our son had the Jaeger Schnitzel, my wife had the plain Schnitzel and I went for the Bangkok Schnitzel, all three were on point, our daughter went for the Currywurst which was a good level of spice. My Bangkok Schnitzel had a Thai Curry sauce and pineapples, it was a nice fusion. The bread was homemade and we ordered a second basket, because who doesn't love a great homemade bread?

He ordered the jagerschnitzel with spaetzle and mushroom gravy, and had enough to bring some back to the condo. He proclaimed it very tasty and five-worthy, in his opinion. We also shared a pretzel with cheese sauce, and they gave us some delicious tasting homemade bread. The unsweetened iced tea tasted delicious once the pink stuff was added, and that's only saying something because you wouldn't believe how often the iced tea stinks in restaurants. They had next to nothing for vegetarians, since they seem to enjoy putting bacon in everything. Why? They kindly swapped the Swiss cheese (blech) in the kasespatzle for Alfredo sauce, and I got a cute salad plate too. It tasted fine, I had no complaints. I would like to point out that, according to the interwebs, "In 2022, about 8.12 million people in Germany identified as either vegetarians or largely forgo meat consumption." Meat substitutes like quorn are quite facile to work with, and make excellent meat substitutes in traditional dishes. Try it!
