I wish there was a location closer to where I live! For a chain restaurant (that is known more for things other than food) they have always been amazing and consistent. Coming to this location for the first time proved that streak still continues. The LUMP BLUE CRAB BISQUE - Sherry, Cream, Crushed Herb Croutons to start was fabulous. The MACADAMIA-NUT-CRUSTED SNAPPER - Hawaiian Red Sea Salt, Almond Rice, Grilled Asparagus, Wasabi Soy Beurre Blanc was just as good. Yes, something I usually pass on entirely, dessert, the key lime pie was great too. The only disappointment was the piña colada I ordered. The "bar" is set high on this one by the Marlin Bar in Orlando so I'll give them a pass. Service was very attentive and the place itself is brand new. I wish the developer would have made more parking closer to the buildings. In the off season it was nuts, coming here during peak season is going to be a challenge. One aspect they truly excel at is the live entertainment. The music is just right--loud enough for the audience to sing "Sweet Caroline," yet soft enough to allow for casual conversations at the table. read more

My family and I have been coming to Tommy Bahama's every year while on vacation, and it has always been one of the places we make a point to visit multiple times during our trip. We are typically there at least three out of the seven days we stay in town. Unfortunately, after our experience on Mother's Day, we do not plan on returning. We arrived around 4:30 p.m. with a party of nine, hoping to enjoy some of the happy hour menu and pricing. We were kept waiting in the front until exactly 5:00 p.m., even though it was obvious that tables on the back deck were already available. Once seated, our server was polite and did a good job taking care of us. During conversation, we mentioned the long wait, and he explained that it is apparently "protocol" to delay seating larger parties until after 5:00 so they do not receive happy hour pricing. If that is truly company policy, I find it extremely disappointing and dishonest. We felt manipulated instead of welcomed. The food quality was also far below what we have experienced in past years. The crusted snapper that was recommended to us was terrible and had to be sent back. My grandson's burger was also very poor quality and honestly unpleasant. The only dishes our table generally agreed were decent were the squash casserole bowl and the chicken parmesan. Another disappointment was learning that bread is no longer served. For families with children, that was always something simple that helped while waiting on meals. Between the removal of those small touches, the higher prices, and the noticeable decline in food quality, the restaurant no longer feels worth returning to. I'm not writing this to get anyone in trouble. I'm writing because this restaurant used to be one of the highlights of our vacation every year, and it is frustrating to see the experience decline this much. Chris Tomlinson read more

We wanted to try this location. We were immediately met with negative engagement from the hostess stand. 2 &1/2 wait if we could have a seating. I really wanted to try this location. Negative engagement at the host stand. I still want to try this location, will update if we get a seating...if we come back to this location again. If not, our interaction was poor, was hoping to enjoy and praise this restaurant...alas, faulted by the host team. read more

This TB is in the Grand Blvd shopping center. Wonderful bright clean interior and exterior. Very classy place with outstanding service starting with the hostess who sat us with a nice table overlooking the park. I had a martini with blue cheese stuffed olives, extra dry and it did not disappoint. We shared the blackened mahi mahi tacos in a crunchy shell topped with a tomato Relish, Chipotle Aioli, Island Slaw, Lime Sour Cream, House-Made Chips & Salsa. In addition, we split the goat cheese dip with Macadamia Nuts, Mango Salsa, Sweet Soy Glaze, Sourdough Crostini very fresh, well seasoned and prepared perfectly. I will be back ! read more

Great food, good service! Nice and clean. Pretty ambience. Ate here twice, one weekday afternoon, much quieter and open. Reservations were need for our dinner and we were seated promptly. Much louder in the evenings with people and music playing. Would dine again . read more

Food was great! It was a little loud since we were seated close to the bar, but it wasn't bad. Our server, Alex, was very nice and attentive. My mom and I would both order our meals again. We'll be back next time we're in the area! read more

Uppscale coastal dining. On Thursdays, they have live music in the courtyard next-door. All of our food was very good but a little pricey. We got the blackened mahi-mahi tacos and the baby back ribs half size. It only came with two tacos, they did have a lot of fish in them, but I feel like they could've had three. Everything was very flavorful. We also got the biscuits as an appetizer, they are a little small but filling! Also, if you get the lemonade, it is very sour because it's made from scratch. We also tried the Keylime pie, which is not really my thing but once again it's a little sour. Service was good, but the front desk seemed a little scatterbrained. read more

We have been to this location at least 8 times! Every time we go to Destin (which is often!) we visit Tommy Bahamas. Sky is the ultimate bartender and it's obvious he is knowledgeable, while also being a perfectionist in his trade! We often sit at the bar just to hang out with him! Aiden is equally as amazing and took very good care of us when our dinner was a little mixed up! We have the absolute best time here, and it is by far our favorite restaurant! Do not sleep on the filet salad or ANY dessert; it's all a work of art! read more

Loved everything about this restaurant. My fish was amazing. Such a great vibe. Must try...

Service was excellent. Seated right away. Server was at table quickly. He was extremely friendly. Offered excellent suggestions for dessert. My meal was the sea bass. It was delicious and the mushrooms served with it were tender and tasty. The pineapple cake for dessert was the best I've had! Our seating was fine but the bar area was loud. Definitely would return. read more

Local- Hadn't been back since the renovation project completed in November What happened? Used to be a little on the expensive side- now a lot on the expensive side for mediocre quality. Fish tacos- used to serve 3 for less than they sell 2 today. Tortilla Soup- I remember a year ago they sold a good sized bowl for $12 - oh, and it actually had tortilla strips in with the soup. Not today and it was barely a cup of soup. Service was just fair- much missing. Sorry TB - get the old act back together- we won't be back until maybe the next renovation. read more

I love this place but my experience for Mother's Day and my Birthday (sharing the same day)...did not satisfy. We came in around 4:30 for the early dinner. I noticed the crushed Macadamia Nuts Red Snapper was not what it used to be. I could not taste the fish! It was all crusted Macadamia nuts! The rice and asparagus tasted fine but the crust was too much. I hope they bring back the full cut of fish with lightly crusted macadamia nuts. read more

We had a wonderful experience with Jeremiah as our server. We had a large group and he did a wonderful job handling us, making sure we were well taken care of and kindly split the bill for us among 3 families. We were very disappointed to see that they were not doing happy hour for Father's Day. All father's love a good deal and discounted drink or appetizer on their day! A free dessert or beer would have been a nice gesture but nothing was made special for the dads. read more

I think everything they put out is amazing. Their food is never sitting and comes out piping hot. The calamari hands down the bomb! Never had calamari like theirs and would order two orders it was that good. The crab bisque soup is creamy and rich and the gem Cesar salad comes out crisp and cold. I got the macadamia nut crusted sea bass and chefs kiss! The service is great. Make a reservation because it will be tough to get a table. Specially in the summer. read more

The sea bass was great. The staff was friendly and atmosphere was as expected. Parking on the street was easy to find.

First and last time here. Food was below average and service was awful. Ordered coconut shrimp ...came burnt. Waiter did not return for 15 minutes When waiter went to refill my daughters beverage he reached across my face and plate...twice When collecting the dishes from the table the person dropped the used utensils on my lap. Follow up from restaurant is hoping they do better next time. I think the bar is pretty high to do worse. read more

My family and I enjoyed a father's Day meal at Tommy's before heading to the outlets. The restaurant was understandably busy and we walked in without reservations. After a short wait, we were seated in the bar area. Our server was prompt with taking our order. We started with the coconut shrimp appetizer. We never dine at Tommy's without enjoying some coconut shrimp after we devoured the appetizer we enjoyed the Bronzino and the Eggs with chorizo, which were available on the brunch menu. Highly recommend stopping in if you were in the area. The restaurant and shop is situated in a nice shopping and dining area with a lot of options. read more

Love coming here for martinis. Brought my parents here for their first visit. The friendly hostess was so helpful to get us a table in the bar. Fun, classy vibe and a very popular place! We enjoyed a pineapple martini, lemon drop martini, an old fashioned and a Prosecco during happy hour. Great place to shop as well. We like to stop here every trip to SanDestin. read more

Love the relaxing music. Service always excellent and good even better! Happy hour is a nice option as well.

Service was about what you'd expect from a fast food restaurant. Waiter wasn't listening to our little 4 top when one of my guests ordered her meal and completely got the wrong entree. No real apology, no concern from the house. And the disgusting bathroom with piss caked on the floor no toilet paper and paper towels all over the floor. Saw another waiter use the facilites and then didn't was their hands. Not the Tommy Bahama experience you would expect if your ever been to this restaurant anywhere else.

It has only been three weeks since they reopened. It is to be a favorite of ours. We are local. Four bartenders and we had dinner. No one took responsibility for us. That no one is in charge by customer does not work. They changed their famous crab salad that was molded. New free form salad was not as good. New menu looks like there are some new items to try, but we won't be back until we see some raving fans. Best items was the bread which was a grilled sliced baguette. Every bartender constantly drank from their own Yeti or plastic glass and they were more interested in keeping them full than paying attention to the guests. I left a 10% tip and that was more than they deserved. read more

Every year when we come to Florida, the first thing I do is go to Tommy Bahama Restaurant. I order the chicken mango salad and bread. That has been my all-time favorite. However, this year I was sadly disappointed. Their star bread has been discontinued and instead, you have to purchase bread in a skillet. For me I won't order it again. Something happened to the chicken mango salad as it definitely is not as good as has been the last several years. Having said all the above, the service and Ambience cannot be beat. They take very good care of their customers. read more

Services was friendly but disappeared a good bit. I'm still eating on lemon for my weather. Food was average if not below. I had chicken tortilla soup - - horribl. It was a brown cream onion soup, salty like from a can and nothing fresh about it. My friend had gumbo- looked like shrimp and rice with crab scattered on top. Wait was long at the table - far worse than our first experience that was great last year. read more

Another great experience at Tommy Bahamas. We visited Destin for five days and we opted to eat here 2 of those nights! I got the scallops and shrimp with coconut curry, it was amazing. Hubby got the Kona coffee crusted ribeye. Cooked medium rare to perfection but a bit of a chewy texture. A young man named Trip was our server and was very polite and personable. Tab for this lovely meal plus one top shelf drink was around $100. Live music and happy customers make this a delightful venue read more

We absolutely love this place!! It is one of our go-tos, and we are always impressed. The restaurant has a beachy, coastal vibe, which we love. To start, we got the bread, which is served warm and with a cinnamon butter. It is delicious!! We also got the guacamole and coconut shrimp, which are some of our favorites. I always get the crab cakes!! These are my favorite ever. They are full of fresh crab meat and not much breading, which I prefer. I also substitute the sides for their broccoli and mashed potatoes. I look forward to this meal every time we come in town. We also love the burger as well!! We are burger lovers, so this is a must! Others in our party ordered the macadamia nut crusted fish, snapper special, and the spaghetti squash bowl with steak. Everything was delicious!! I would recommend the snapper special also. Each sauce and side that was paired with it was amazing, and the fish had a nice crisp exterior that was perfect with the tender, flaky fish. Lastly, we ended the night with the Pina colada cake and the crème brûlée! We get the crème brûlée every time, and it is one of the best, if not the best crème brûlées we've had! We had a pretty big party and everything came out in a timely manner. We are always super impressed with our meal!! We are already looking forward to the next time we will be back! read more
