    Red snapper
    Jessica P.

    We dined at Vue on 30A last night and, unfortunately, our experience didn't quite live up to expectations. We had a 7:15 reservation and still waited over 30 minutes to be seated. While we enjoyed a drink at the bar during the wait, we had arrived early, so it felt like quite a long delay. Once seated, the view was beautiful, though we didn't get to see the sunset from our table. I ordered the fried chicken, which was actually delicious and perfectly cooked. However, my husband had the red snapper special and only made it through a few bites--it just didn't sit well and wasn't enjoyable. We ended up skipping dessert because of this. The staff was friendly and courteous, but the dining area felt like it could use some attention--there were visible water spots on the ceiling and an overall sense that the space could use some refreshing. All in all, while the setting is lovely and the staff was kind, the experience left us quite underwhelmed.

    Dined at Vue on 30a this past weekend with friends and had a great time. If you want to just go to the bar and watch the sunset this place has epic views. The service was great from being greeted when walking out after dinner. Our waitress was professional and gave great recommendations and knew the menu inside and out. I started out with the wedge salad w no blue cheese crumbles and had it with ranch dressing. The salad came out cold and crisp. My entree I had southern style fish and chips. I got my grouper grilled not fried. It was very good and the fish was cooked perfectly. Other dinner companions had the filet and they said the meat cut like butter. For dessert I had the raspberry crème brûlée. The presentation was great, but I would suggest the chocolate mousse or beignets. Would recommend reservations for sure if you want a great meal and view.

    We were told to get reservation, so we did for 6:00. Glad we did by 6:30 the restaurant filled up. We started out with drinks, I got a Margarita, noticed how big it is, it was good. On to appetizers, Lamb Lillipops, they were good, and the Ember Shrimp, they were amazing!! We got 2 orders for a table of 5. Glad we did, because we cleaned both the plates!!! These are a must to get! I got the Gumbo, it was ok, didn't have the Cajun flavor I was looking for. For my entree I got the Southern-Style Fish and Shrimp with Chips. Very boring, lacked flavor. I would not order this again. We also got a side of Mac & Cheese, it was good. Bottom line, there are several other restaurants in the area that are better.

    I was visiting my dad in Santa Rosa Beach last month and he took me here for lunch. I absolutely loved the stunning views of the ocean and the food was delicious too. My fish tacos were perfect. I enjoyed the fries and the mac & cheese as well. Loved how creamy it was and my dad is always going for that burger here.. we didn't have the best experience when it came to the service, but everything else was top-tier

    Southern Fried Chicken Breast

    Most amazing experience! We had reservations at 7:45pm and had to wait a short time for our table and the hostess offered to comp our drinks and appetizer! The view was gorgeous at sunset! For an appetizer we had the ember shrimp and it was so delicious. Then for a meal I shared the Southern Fried Chicken Breast that was super delicious. They split the meal on two separate plates and it was plenty for me and my sister. Overall I would definitely go back again and highly recommend!

We landed at Local Catch in search of grouper and we found it! I loved their blackened grouper with beurre blanc sauce, green beans and mashed potatoes. Before diving into the grouper, I shared nachos with the table and they too were surprisingly awesome. Local Catch makes their nachos with home made tortillas and something about how they topped them with pork, lots of cheese, and a little bit of a sweet salsa, madee them memorable. Other items on the seafood and American fare inspired menu include tacos, burgers, po' boys, steaks and salad. If I wasn't craving grouper, it would have been hard to choose. Service was excellent as well. We visited during the busy spring break season and there was plenty of parking in the private lot. In addition to indoor seating, there are also some tables on the front patio. I'd love to return and try many more menu items and my leam with a draft beer or cocktail.

We went to Farm & Fire looking for quality food and we found it there along with bay views and great service. My table had salad, steaks, wagyu burgers and crab and artichoke dip. All were quality choices. We were seated in the inside bar area which was nice from the standpoint of having views of the Choctawhatchee Bay. There is also an indoor dining room with table clothes that feels a bit more refined. In addition to watching the bay, we were also able to do a little people watching. The crowd at the outdoor picnic tables enjoying drinks on the edge of the bay also seemed to be having a good time. Our server was awesome. She said it was her second day but I assumed she was a seasoned server for Farm & Fire. She was friendly and attentive and great with all of our questions. She had clearly studied the menu and knew the restaurant. The building has lots of different levels/elevations and stairs. Additionally, a majority of the parking is across the street. For that reason, I wouldn't take someone with limited mobility there but I enjoyed it and I would return.
