Perdido & Surrounding Area Restaurants
Food scene
Great family friendly restaurant with a large menu and plenty of options for adults and children. Great selection of freshly caught seafood options and of course oysters! If you love something spicy, definitely try the New Orleans BBQ Shrimp, it is out of this world! Great chef! Plenty of views, indoor and outdoor seating, with bars inside and out.

Looks like a hole in the wall but the food is New Orleans oriented and is fabulous! This is a local favorite! Family friendly, casual. Definitely the earlier you go the better, but they also take reservations. Small restaurant, would recommend reservations. :)

Our personal FAVORITE. Nice upscale restaurant with THE LARGEST fresh fish menu in all of the coast. It's asian-fusion style and they also have great sushi. Love this place for your last night in town, or to celebrate something special, or for nothing special at all. Large menu, steaks, seafood, shrimp and grits, fabulous cocktails. Reservations recommended.

BBQ at the beach? Yes! This place is great! A little pricey but worth the drive! They also offer takeout that can easily be reheated in the oven/microwave at home. :) Try the crispy chicken, you won't be sorry! The brisket and pulled pork are also excellent!

Looking for something totally different than beach food options? McGuires is a downtown Pensacola tradition less than 30 minutes from Perdido and will be a place that kids remember for a lifetime! Walls are studded with dollar bills and the food and service is consistently great! Irish Pub food, fish and chips, bangers and mash, burgers, amazing steaks, famous for their prime rib, ruben eggrolls, giant ice cream sundaes, locally crafted beer, and so much more!
Pensacola downtown area (Palafox Street) would be a great place to spend an afternoon/evening. Walkable, lots of local shops and eateries, this is a vibrant downtown area with a hip vibe and similar architecture of like a mini-New Orleans.

In case you are serious foodies, here's a spot we definitely recommend DOWNTOWN PENSACOLA if you end up doing a day here (mcguires for lunch, iron for dinner maybe, LOL). Award winning chef, creative, expertly prepared menu. Craft cocktails.
