Wanted someplace local and boy this place did not disapoint. We met Julie herself and immediately felt like family. This is not healthy food, but legit southern cooking. We will be sure to be back every time we visit the Destin area!

We make sure to visit Julie's everytime we are down for Vacation. This buffet is Amazing. We have had Thanksgiving, Breakfast and their Lunch menu and they did not disappoint! I will continue to eat here when I'm in the area. Owner and waitresses were so sweet and caring. Miss yall and hope to see you soon!

I’ve lived in Fort Walton for a couple years, but my first visit to Julie’s was just a few days ago & let me tell you, I am a fan! My family and I enjoyed an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet for around $10.99 a person! From sausages and grits to chocolate chip pancakes and pears, the food was delicious. Plus, the staff was warm, welcoming, and made me feel like I was a regular. A definite must-visit if you’re in the mood for some sweet, southern cookin.

Staff is fantastic, salad bar is worth the visit. Meat plus Veggies gives this place the old dinner feel. Food feels like it comes out of some ones mothers' kitchen.

The food was good. But served buffet style. As usual, buffet style is not as good as freshly made. But they had variety to choose from. The staff all greeted us, a large group, and made us feel welcome. They had just repainted the outside to a tan color so looking for the bright blue landmark didn't work.

OMG!!!! Absolutely delicious lunch buffet this Wednesday. This is every bit as good as the 5 Sisters Blues cafe in Pensacola. Highly recommend it, my new favorite restaurant!

And those blueberry pancakes, soooo goooddd!!!! The food was perfect, the service was incredible, they were so nice and friendly!!! 10/10 definitely recommend!!!

We received the most delicious desserts today from Julie's. It was such a sweet gesture and they are heavenly! Thanks for giving back to the community! We will definitely be in soon to try more tasty treats and home style food! :)
Clean restaurant. Very friendly and wonderful service. Delicious food! Don't miss the fried chicken on Wednesdays. Mashed potatoes and gravy. Yum! Husb's fried okra was delish. Did I mention the friendly prices? They also have a breakfast and lunch buffet. We happened to sit next to the owner's & other friendly servers parents. Delightful people! This truly is Southern Joy.

It's easy to drive by this place as it doesn't stand out too much from the road, but it was absolutely worth the stop. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and sat quickly. The staff was extremely friendly and made us feel as if they've known us for years. It's a family run business and it feels homey. The buffet area was well stocked with fresh food; nothing looked or tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp or been out for hours. There was an assortment of fruit, pastries, pancakes & french toast, and breakfast meats. They pretty much had any traditional breakfast item you could think of. While we were sitting, the kitchen staff came out with a sheet pan of biscuits fresh out of the oven. They were so soft and buttery. The price wasn't bad either-- we paid $25 for two buffets and two drinks. I think Julie's will be one of our favorite places to stop for a home cooked breakfast.

We stopped on Sunday for brunch buffet. They had quite the selection of food! It was all comfort food. It was hot and tasty! Just the usual cafe style food. The staff was absolutely amazing. They were all very friendly and accommodating. If we come back it would be because the staff was so nice!

The food is truly southern home style and so many options! The service also represents the southern hospitality that most restaurants are missing. The combination creates an experience that keeps my husband and I coming back again and again…

Great place for a home-cooked meal. The fried chicken is on point! The collard greens are awesome as well.
