    "$6 Potato cakes"
    Jennifer T.

    Like others have said, food is okay, it's what I expect from a breakfast/lunch mom & pop style place. I've only had breakfast the few times I've dined here, but I just cannot wrap my head around being charged $6 for the same amount and style of tots/rounds you get from Chick-fil-A for less than $2. They're listed as "mini potato cakes", so I absolutely expected something more than standard fried potato rounds when I ordered my $6 side of "cakes" to go with my $7.50 sideless bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Perhaps I should've had the waitress explain the "potato cakes" were the same as Chick-fil-A or Hardee's hash browns and not some tasty latkes or, you know, actual POTATO CAKES. I can buy a whole bag of ore ida brand rounds from Publix for $6. I think it's pretty safe to say this price-gouged potato item is not made in-house.. perhaps homemade would help justify such an outrageous price for the amount shown in the photo. You guys should be embarrassed.

    A cute little diner! My daughter got a Mickey Mouse pancake and she was so happy! Our waitress was a very sweet lady I didn't get her name though. It seems very family friendly and small love going to these kinds of hole in the wall places definitely might have to come back!!

    The food is good. The waitress was southern friendly. It looks like a house was converted into the restaurant. It's quaint.

    TL;DR: We just moved here and it looks like we've found our new favorite breakfast place in The Breakfast Place! This small, unassuming place is tucked away after a few car dealerships. We missed it the first time since it was quite small. But, you know it's good because they have a parking lot nearly 3x bigger than their restaurant. We went in here for breakfast since it was close to our house and I really wanted to get pancakes. Lo and behold, my morning was made when I saw they offered bulgogi and kimchi! My Asian heart rejoiced. Eating this delicious meal felt like I was half a world away and not in Florida. My husband had pancakes and French toast and he said he would have them again and again. Our lovely waitress was an older woman who was just the sweetest, kindest and most attentive. We never ran out of coffee and she checked on us every so often. Not the "how's everything" when you've just shoveled in food in your mouth. She actually waits to ask until you're done chewing. Shocking, I know! To cap this long review off, I am in love with this little breakfast place. And I am so happy we live nearby.

    Great choices. When you see all the local license plates in the parking lot, you assume it's going to be good. It did not disappoint.

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!

Decided on a 6 pack with glazed, chocolate coconut x 2, sprinkles, chocolate glazed x 2. They were placed in a bag rather than box (I should have said something!) so of course the chocolate ended up on the bag and the other donuts. Luckily the donuts were good, though! Also ordered a slice of key lime pie (a must!) and a slice of a chocolate/vanilla cake (moist and perfect if you can't decided if you want a slice of chocolate or vanilla cake!). In addition to pastries, they also ordered food (mainly looked like breakfast and brunch), which looked delicious. If we had more time in Destin, would definitely stop by again for a meal.

We didn't make it in until the day before our departure; otherwise we would have eaten here everyday since our arrival, which made their "..,see you tomorrow" remarks totally understandable. My husband and I shared a huge Bloody Mary, Local Sandwich and Asiago Club. We each enjoyed their generously cheesy grits. The breakfast sandwiches were both amazing, but I did favor the Asiago club. We requested extra crispy bacon and it was really good bacon! Our friends had an American Breakfast, Steak Skillet, Bacon Skillet, Biscuits & Gravy with a sausage patty. We wanted to return the next morning for another wonderful breakfast, but had to get on the road early. Our server, Tiffany C., was so pleasant and friendly and very well organized with us and the crowd.

Im guessing she was a manager stopped by asked if we had been greeted yet, she took our drink order and offered some bread (it was good). It was still quite awhile until the server came to the table. We ordered some appetizers and then eventually our meals. The pizza did not live up to the reviews and my vodka sauce was lacking flavor.
