5/10/2026: Grand Marlin is top-notch!…read more We had an incredible experience here on May 10th. Our server, Brittany, gave excellent service and was incredibly accommodating. Since the three of us in our group aren't big eaters, we asked to split a portion of everything we ordered, and she didn't blink an eye. We started with the BBQ shrimp, which was fantastic! It's not a heavy, traditional BBQ flavor--it's more of a rich, New Orleans-style sauce. With six shrimp total, it was perfect for splitting, especially with the delicious bread served alongside it to soak up that amazing sauce. Nom!! Two of us split the wedge salad, and Brittany happily accommodated our special request for ranch instead of blue cheese. Our other friend had the kale salad and thoroughly enjoyed it. For the main course, the three of us split the filet mignon, which came with a dollop of mashed potatoes. The char on the steak was absolutely fabulous, and the potatoes paired with it perfectly! The restaurant is fairly dark and can get a bit noisy on busy nights, but we enjoyed our time immensely. Grand Marlin has private rooms and is easily the most high-end restaurant on Pensacola Beach. Our total was $178.00 before tip, which is well worth it. The attire ranges anywhere from dressy to beach casual, they have several great seating options for special occasions, and there's even a gift shop with some great finds. For anyone who remembers, this used to be the Boy on a Dolphin years ago. As an honorary Pensacolian since 1975, I consider myself a bit of an expert on all things Pensacola Beach--and you won't be disappointed here! Pro tip: Get a group photo by the bay before leaving. Even at night, it shows off those perfect Pensacola views.

They have a cool layout with both indoor and outdoor seating. They have a cool area downstairs too by the water with tables for people to wait at. The place just embodies a beach restaurant. Food You had me a "Fried Green Tomatoes". I am a sucker for FGTs! So I was instantly drawn to this location. We visited first to get food to go. We enjoyed the food so much we returned to more times! The kids really enjoyed the kids meals, and my wife tried several seafood dishes and seemed to enjoy all of them. As a vegetarian my selections were limited but the stuff i did try was good. The Drinks We ordered a few of their mixed drinks and I wasn't really impressed. They all looked a lot better than they tasted. They did have a really good beer selection and I was able to enjoy a few beers I had never heard of. Service Definitely the Highlight of our visits, their servers and bartenders really seem to care! They spoke to everyone, they interacted with our kids, they never forgot sides, they moved with urgency, I could go on and on. Kudos to Shaggy's staff as a whole for really making our visits special. I definitely recommend giving Shaggy's a try.

Really enjoyed our experience at Shaggy's. We waited about 45 minutes for first available on a…read moreThursday night around six. It seemed as though the dinner crowd started to thin out around seven to seven thirty. When we were seated, the first available was a two seat high top next to a column in front of the bar. The wait was expected, but the column was claustrophobic and it was a high traffic area. But that was the only downside. We had the Gator Bites and the Three Shrimp plate. The Gator was new to us, it was fried, and tasted like chicken. There seemed to be a mix of white and dark meat, but I am not sure as we have never had Gator before. The Three Shrimp was 15 Shrimp prepared three different ways: Bacon Wrapped, Coconut, and Butter/Garlic. The shrimp were served on a bed of fries with two hush puppies. The sauce they served was an unexpected surprise and I could have used two containers. I probably liked the Bacon Wrapped the best because of the glaze that was on it, but all three were really good. I really liked Shaggy's but would recommend timing it either before or after the dinner rush. Also, if you are dining for two, I would be sure to request that you not be seated at the high top in front of the bar with the column :)

Based on the photos and positive reviews I had seen beforehand, my expectations were much higher. Service: My server was attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service throughout my visit. One of the main reasons I chose this restaurant was because Yelp listed outdoor dining as an option. However, upon arrival, I was informed that outdoor dining is not available, which was disappointing and affected my overall experience.
