High Tide has become a must stop for me and for my extended family whenever any of us visit the area. I always enjoy the smoked tuna dip! This was my first visit in several years and it still has that local/hometown vibe that I remembered. Our server was outstanding and we had our food in no time.

The Boardroom Pub & Grub

I really enjoyed my stop at the Boardroom. I had a meal and some beers. It wasn't as busy in comparison to some of the other local pubs and that was perfect for me. Attentive staff, good food, and watching a game on the t.v. was exactly what I was looking for and they met that expectation. The Cuban sandwich was very good and was way better than any other food from the local pubs.

Dock on the Island

Dock on the Island is Okaloosa Island's newest restaurant. A combination of great food and great waterfront view make this the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal.

Visited twice and enjoyed both trips. Fish tacos were great, as were the decent portion of wings. However, the prices were a bit high for the amount/quality of the food. No draft beer? Recommend visiting when 2-4-1 coupons are available.

Fokker's Pub

Reviewed By Pettite

We stopped into Fokker's Pub specifically for their German food. The location is not far from the beach hotels. We were greeted right away and asked to seat ourselves (it was early for dinner and not super busy at the time). The waitress was friendly and quick. We had the Jaeger schnitzel and the schnitzel with a sunny side egg. The meat was tender and each meal was pretty good overall. The atmosphere is very casual. It was also family friendly so young children were welcomed - it is not like a bar - more like a laid back restaurant with TVs and very casual. Thanks Fokker's!

Really enjoyed our time and meal.Hi Rebecca, thank you for stopping in and bringing the family! We love that you all enjoyed the fireworks, food and overall entire atmosphere!

The Shack - Original Waterfront Crab Shack

Reviewed By gigi6692018

This was our second time here and definitely the last. I hoped to give them another try with different results but after 2x's, I'm not impressed once again... DONE. Both times, the staff has acted sassy/rude and really not very considerate of paying guests. To top it off, they want to charge you extra for more chips for the crab dip when there already wasn't enough in relation to the amount of dip you receive. Then, to charge .50cents for "strawberry butter" for hushpuppies is tacky considering you order a $30 steak which was tough and not impressive. Fish special was overcooked...just really not impressed with sub-par food plus charging extra for every little item. I never mind paying extra when it makes sense but this just seemed petty as much as we spent on our meal. To finish on a positive note, the fried shrimp was the only relatively good item out of four dinners.

We had burgers. They were tasteless and the bacon was overcooked. As the main menu item, you expect a great burger. The chicken fingers were good. Cups for drinks are paper. For a humid environment, you are lucky to finish your drink before it crumbles. Disappointing dinner.

I loved this place. Go and ask for Phillip. He was incredible and kept us laughing. I ordered grilled shrimp and my husband ordered the blackened Mahi Mahi. They were both excellent choices. Phillip also suggested the shrimp rangoons, which I was skeptical about but they were creamy, spicy, and sweet all at the same time. I would go back just for those! We sat outside beside the water and it was the perfect ambiance for our date.
