“I loved this coffee shop! I wish I had more time (and money) to spend here but we had to leave. All of their food options are so good and their bakery banana breads, muffins, and cinnamon rolls are legendary!The variety of seating here is amazing and their service is incredibly fast! It was so fun to watch the staff team together to make drinks! 2 or 3 would work on a drink at a time making drinks almost before you have a chance to sit down! I cannot express how much I love this place!“
“Don't skip this fantastic local gem! I got donuts but they had many other breakfast options. Staff is helpful and so nice! Seems to be the place locals pop in for coffee and breakfast. Pizza available next door afternoon-ish. Don't miss it!“
“Great option for quick service and tasty food. The options are limited to its name, burritos, tacos, nachos.. but they are delicious. The portion is very good, any bigger and you'll definitely be taking some home or definitely not finishing it, if you are eben able to now. The carnitas burrito was loaded with meat and the fillings chosen, everything was juicy and flavorful. Kids quesadilla is a great portion, my son had the chicken and ate all of it up. They come with a side of nachos and salsa - that's not mentioned in the menu. Service is very quick and servers are friendly, but it is usually very full. Seating is pretty much at full capacity regularly, you have to grab a spot as soon as you see people getting up. You order and pay first then take a seat. Definitely a place to stop into when I'm in the area.“
“We have just recently started the process of going vegan. We also came here on our honeymoon so we were prepared to eat our normal omnivore meals but we were pleasantly surprised to find this place. The food was great! Healthy, filling, and nice to look at. The staff was kind. The place also looked so beautiful. The koi and garden were such a great part of the experience“
“Food was excellent, large portions and large variety to pick from. I had the stuffed meat omelet and toast I've ever had. My husband had easy over eggs variety of meats, some little read potatoes we enjoyed it all. It was very crowded, about 30 min wait. Great place to go.Parking: They need a bigger location to fit the large amount of customer's“
“It's not a very big venue, but the service and atmosphere was awesome. Will definitely come back. I only dropped by to buy a T-shirt. The food other customers had looked very good. They had a large variety of beer on tap. Next time I'm going to stay for a beer.“
“The restaurant had a long line but they moved fast through people and had quick service, food was great. Pork was delicious salad not so much, my friends got the brisket sandwich and ribs they both said it was very good! It had a great atmosphere with an outdoor and indoor section. I would suggest this place!“
“Great experience here. Friendly staff, helped me with order suggestions. I went with the pork báhn mì and it was really good! The vegetables were super crisp, bread was soft and flaky, meat was delicious! Every ingredient felt like it was high quality and prepared with special attention. I recommend giving this place a try.“
“We dined outside and ordered a starter that arrived very quickly. Joey was our server and he answered all our questions, brought us our food hot, and was just a general delight. I had the cacio e pepe, which was creamy, spicy, & satisfying. My partner enjoyed the fettuccine with blackened chicken. The garlic knots were fantastic — imagine your favorite cinnamon roll, with crispy edges and tender insides. The prices felt a bit steep but given the quality and service, I’d say they’re justified. Looking forward to making more memories at this place!“
“Pizza was amazing even though door dash delivery sucked. Pizza was just warm and the driver left it at an unattended counter in the lobby and sent me a Pic thru text. We were on the 17th floor and I specified that it be delivered to ME. Zollos gave me the number for door dash. I called and they refunded me the $3 delivery charge and $7 dollar tip I left for the driver!!!“
“i have been driving by this place for 4 years and finally stopped, and im glad i did, i will say this is my top 3 favorite restaurant in all Panama city. Food was real good 0 complaints the staff were awesome, i got a drink and the bartender walked over to where i was seated to ask me a question then made some small talk supper cool of them to do that. I hope they do company partys here because i would love to have my end of year party here for my company.“
“Good sounding flavor choices (Blue Bell I believe) and interesting sundae ideas. The strip mall location reminded me of Baskin Robbins in the 80s. We are used to ice cream from an outdoor window with no indoor seating so this was nostalgic in a weird way. They also had outdoor tables under the roof overhang out of the sun or weather. I had decided on a sundae that they were missing some ingredients to so I switched key lime pie flavor on a brownie and both were good but maybe I shouldn't have put those flavors together?“
“The place itself is cute. Inside has limited seating but there is also outside seat. The pizza is wonderful. Thin crust, just the right amount of sauce and good quality cheese and pepperoni. We also had the ceaser salad and cheese sticks. Both very good.“
“We’ve been coming to Panama City for years. Even stayed in Carillon a couple times. We have a couple places that we were loyal to for breakfast. No more. First time our family ate here was yesterday and it is our new favorite spot. The food is incredible. It’s the first place where we all had to share what the other is having just to see how good it was.Family owned, scratch made, the owners daughter takes the orders and is one of the nicest people you will meet. Service is just as good as the food. If you haven’t tried it, your missing out. Wish I could give more than 5 stars!“

“All slider sandwiches were excellent, although I had a favorite, I don't want to make the choice for you...go try them! There were so many choices of brews that I had to try six (samples) of them on this trip before settling in on one. We got very good choice advice from Ashleigh D. At the end of this wonderful visit, we took home five of the Growlers and shared them with friends. This is a "must visit again" place, so next visit, maybe I will try six or more samples.“
“Was there in November. We (boyfriend & I) walked the beach and found hook'd. The drinks and food were awesome but most of all I want the bartender ZACHARY to know how awesome he is My boyfriend was able to guess his name which zachary seemed surprised that someone actually guessed his name right. (He doesn't look like a Zachory.) If someone out there reads this review and happens to go to Hook'd in Panama say hi to Zachary for us until the next time we're there. Love Shawn and Stephanie“
“New favorite place for vacation!! Bar Bingo with Ash was so much fun we went back a second time in the same week! Black Jack and staff make the BEST food, ordered a variety of different things each time and it was all amazing! Entire staff from bartenders to servers made the atmosphere one of the best. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Will definitely be back all the way from Missouri.“
“This is a great restaurant on the beach with a wonderful view. Order the Chef special. Swordfish topped with grilled shrimp and asparagus with a fantastic Quinoa. The only issue was the entry and interaction with the host. Our server Cody was Fantastic. Super helpful and very prompt. 5 stars for him. Would definitely come back and highly recommend the Chef special.“
“I don’t remember the gentleman name who served us, but he was Jamaican and had the BEST Customer Service ever. Party of 4 with a baby. His customer service skills he went far and above. Excellent food and drinks. Even opened the door for us a we left establishment .Parking: Great location and parking“
“Fantastic little locally owned tiki bar restaurant. Definitely a top choice of us locals in PCB. Tasty food and always great service all topped off with a spectacular view of the lagoon. It's a small building with lots of outdoor seating so it may take a little longer to get food when it's busy but so worth the wait. Enjoy the view and sip a cocktail and time will fly.“
“We visited San Marcos on the evening of 4/11/23. Merichris was our server and she was very nice and attentive. We started with chips (very thin and fresh), salsa and cheese dip, which were all really good. We ordered the Top Shelf Margaritas and enjoyed them as well. I got a combo meal and my husband the enchiladas. It was not a busy night, about 100 patrons were there and the food was coming out hot and fast. We decided to try the Margarita flight and that was the only thing we did not enjoy, way too sweet, i should have ordered another Top Shelf. We are happy we finally tried this establishment and we will return.“
“I love their fresh raw juices, across the street from the beach, a wonderful place to spend with the family around their fire pits in the winter time. Anytime is great for breakfast, which is outstanding.Kid-friendliness: Excellent area for the kids to play!“

“We always order the Grilled Lamb gyros and they are always stuffed with lamb! There is also greens, onions and of course taziki sauce. Sooo good! It comes with potato chips and a choice of sides. My hubby gets the roasted potatoes and I choose the cucumber-tomato salad. Service is fast and friendly. Wish they had one in our state!“
“Johnny the bartender is absolutely awesome! He alone is enough to get me back! Christina is also an amazing waitress! You have to get both of them! I love the angry tuna so much. Incredible food and drinks. Will come here time and time again. An absolute marquee of Panama City Beach!“
“Why is this place not "The Go To Place" in PCB? Holy cow the variety, the portions, the service, and the prices! People better figure out this gem is here and go! We came down for vacation and I found it via Google (because Yelp! sucks) and we went for lunch. The Philly Steak and Cheese was absolutely at the top of my list for the best ever and it was LOADED down with tender beef, cheese, onions, and green peppers! Loved it!! We also had the Hot Italian Sub. Good lord! Could they stuff it with anymore meat and all the extras? This sandwich was to die for. An absolute pile of "get in my tummy!" And service? Maddie K was an absolute sweetheart! She was super helpful, kind, and engaging! Go get your belly full of awesomeness and ask for Maddie. Your week will be complete!“
“Let me start off with the food was amazing. The bucket was a little pricy at $75, but it can feed 3 easily, maybe 4. Our waiter just didn't tell us we could probably all share so we ended up with a bucket and 2 full entrees. Atmosphere was a little weird, not bad tho. The decor and dining space are clean and upscale, the NBC news on the TV was a little odd and then Nelly playing over the speaker system threw me for a loop. I think they were just trying to find their Spring Break vibe. But beachside dining and again, great food.“
“Came here two nights in a row, that’s how much we enjoyed this meal. The portions are generous, the staff is friendly, and the whole place is unfussy and focused on good food. Would recommend to anyone staying in the area who enjoys seafood even remotely, you won’t be disappointed“
