First visit and we'll definitely be back…read more This was our first time at Shades Bar & Grill, and it was a great experience. We went with a group of seven and everything from the atmosphere to the food made it a really fun night out. The location and vibe are fantastic -- lively but relaxed, the kind of place where you can easily settle in with friends and enjoy a good meal. We started with appetizers for the table: calamari, onion rings, and volcano shrimp. All three disappeared quickly. The calamari was really good and normally comes served over jalapeños, but since I don't eat them the kitchen kindly put them on the side for us. The onion rings were fantastic, and the volcano shrimp had a little heat (which the spice lovers at the table really liked). For dinner I had the hibachi steak over fried rice with yum-yum sauce, cooked medium. It was excellent -- tender, flavorful, and a generous portion. Others in our group ordered the same dish and loved it as well. The chicken nachos were huge (normally an appetizer but easily a full meal) with really tasty queso that had a bit of spice. The burger and flatbreads at the table also got great reviews. We also tried the chocolate dessert bomb at the end (not sure of the exact name), and it was fantastic -- chocolate mousse and cake inside a chocolate shell with whipped cream. Definitely worth sharing. The drinks were great, the service was friendly, and the whole place had a welcoming feel. One thing we really appreciated as well: they offer a military discount, which was a nice touch. We're locals and this was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last. Highly recommend if you're in the Panama City Beach / 30A area.

The prices for lunch were reasonable, and the dinner prices were on the pricey side. There were only a few tables being served for lunch, but then dinner time, the place was much busier. Service was overall good, but we waited a considerable amount of time at dinner for our drinks. The dinner drinks were all specials, inventive, and expensive. All of the dishes we ordered were all done extremely well. Excellent preparation, well seasoned, the right temps, and good portions. Dinner came we a couple baskets of bread, fresh and warm, with a specialty butter. The servers were attentive, personal, patient and helpful. We would come back in the future.

The restaurant is beautiful, and we happened to go during the World Cup, so it was a nice touch that they had the games playing. Our waiter was super attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes and recommendations, very friendly throughout the meal. They started us off with a bread basket with a few different types of bread, all delicious. We ordered the mojo pork empanadas (comes with two, good size) and they were delish. For our main course, we got the Santiago grouper, it was tasty, but a little under-seasoned for our taste, both the rice and the fish, as well as the black beans. That said, this really comes down to personal preference since we like our food on the saltier side, and it was still good overall. My husband ordered the Perla del Sur ribs and those were amazing, the seasoning and sauce were so flavorful. Our waiter also recommended a cocktail called the Rose Berry, which was a great suggestion. By dessert we were already pretty full, but they brought us out a panna cotta for my birthday that was excellent. Overall, everything was delicious and the place is definitely recommended!

The only expectations I had for Crabby Steve's was beach vibes, views, and drinks - all of which I…read moregot - but the excellent food was a surprise. Everyone in our 7-person party enjoyed their apps and entrees. I tried the following: -Peel and eat jumbo shrimp- these royal red shrimp are apparently caught locally (in the gulf) and they are AMAZING. Succulent, flavorful, tender, a little sweet. The only comparable shrimp I remember having were at Penny here in New York and they were smaller and way more expensive. -Spicy tuna dip- also a highlight! The tuna is smoked and the dip has a medium fresh-green-pepper spiciness. -Ceviche Good! This was a special. The base ingredient was shrimp and aside from the citrus, there was some hot sauce drizzled on the top. Also served with tasty avocado. -Bushwacker (frozen; white rum, coffee, Irish cream, chocolate liqueur, float): I wanted to have one of these on the trip! I thought it was tasty and refreshing, tasted mostly chocolatey, and was served in a metal cup, which kept it nice and cold. It was obviously sweet, but not overly sweet.

We ordered the Cuban and the Guinness burger which both were awesome! The prices were reasonable. The only hard point is availability is limited. We had a party of 6 so our older kids sat at a different table (which they probably preferred) and we sat further away. They seat you as you arrive so make sure your whole party is there. Come without shoes or shirts because it doesn't matter- this place is super casual and outdoors. Closed Mondays!
