    The food and frozen lemonade was awesome! Loved how the garage doors were wide open. I am definitely coming back again.

    Frozen lemonade that's homemade, a cheeseburger with grilled onions, and french fries crispy!

    I enjoyed the entire experience! From the ambience to the environment to the staff and most of all food!

    Insane sequence of events! My girlfriend was raving about Steak & Shake, but I stay rolling my eyes because she never had a burger from The Drop In. I checked Apple Maps before getting there because I remembered the place having abnormal hours, but Apple said it was open so I was hyped!! We made the drive over, but on getting there we realized that the OPEN sign was off. It looked like things were wrapping up, so I went up to the restaurant to show the staff that the hours weren't accurate. Immediately, Joe (the guy running the show) walked up and expressed his apologies. He said that he was having issues changing the hours on the site. My girlfriend and I were about to head out, but then he invited me back to the kitchen to post up on the stoop and get a quick meal from what was left over from the day. Those were some KILLER leftovers! Shared a burger with my girlfriend, and she begrudgingly admitted that yes, the burgers were substantially better than steak and shake. And then Joe, going above and beyond, turned the stove back on to make us some wings! While we were chilling together out back, he explained that a similar instance happened for Valentine's Day where a young enlisted couple from NAS Pensacola arrived past close, but he made sure to make them a meal so it wouldn't have ruined the special day! Looking back, I should've hit The Drop In for Valentine's because the restaurant I ended up going to in Destin was rough... Joe also reminisced on his experiences in fine dining, and it was totally justified by the great food we were tasting. That all being said, Joe didn't even charge us for dinner! Even though The Drop In might have some with communicating their hours, the food and the love from Joe is 100% there! Definitely worth coming through and giving this place some appreciation!

    Wow, this place has it all! Food, ambience, service, what a great place to drop in, and hang out. And Damian's is officially back! Just like the good old days.

    Frozen Lemonade

    The frozen lemonade is fantastic and everything on the menu is SO good. They have really perfected their hand cuts fries. We've been several times since opening and will be back all the time!

    We had the cheeseburger! It was great! Of course nothing better than Damian's lemonade. My seven year old had never had one and he loved it!

    If ya know, ya know. Gelato is ice cream's older brother, maybe a little more accomplished and…read morerefined, appeals to the ladies, and generally just does most everything with that extra panache. The flavors are sharper & the milkfat is lower and it's a rather fantastic experience. Lamonte shares space in the historic Sacred Heart Hospital building and there is ample space in or out at which you can enjoy your treats. This small business has won 'Best on the Coast' awards and you can absolutely see why! Gelato is almost fluffy, it seems creamier without the cream, and the combinations can seem endless. They even have a variety that is Olive Oil & Fig, which was sampled by a member of our party and deemed fantastic. Our shared cup of Salted Caramel & Double Chocolate did not last long, and when served with a waffle cone wafer, it made for the perfect union. A small cup, in which you can mix up to two flavors, runs you $5.50, and the larger cup will run you $6.50, making it super-affordable for this artisanal approach to a wonderful delight. Lamonte even puts together a fabulous coffee/drink menu, so there is just about something for any time of day. Pro tip: try an Affogato, a delight of espresso over vanilla gelato. The staff is friendly and certainly willing to suggest something for gelato rookies, and you can see why this brand is exceptionally proud of its product.

    Great service and wonderful gelato, the espresso was tasty, there are picnic tables outside, so you…read morecan enjoy the great weather.
