“In the past we always enjoyed Harrison’s because of the beautiful view and atmosphere but the food would be hit or miss or lacking but we returned last night to be pleasantly surprised. They got a new chef and everything we ate was delicious!! The blueberry cobbler is made to order and was so amazing. The pork chop was tender and perfectly cooked. Always love sitting at the bar with Britney too. She’s a great bartender. Definitely will be going back more frequently now!!“

“Arrived at 10:05 for lunch because breakfast ended at 10:00. One server took our drink order and said our server would be taking our order shortly. 10 minutes later she took our order. Meanwhile over the next 30 minutes several customers arrived and were served drinks and meals. Our server returned a couple of times with excuses why our food wasn't ready. After waiting patiently for 1 hour we got up and left. No one approached us to ask why we were leaving. This was our first visit to Big Mamas and will not be returning.“

“I've been in and out of Panama City for years, but yesterday was the first time I stumbled upon Josiah's and what a place! Home cooked food cooked with passion, love, and personality by the owner, Ms. Sherylyn. This wonderful lady loves her customers and you'll see that when you walk in the doors.

“Surprising spot just off 23rd. Food was really good, and is well priced. You can easily get a good breakfast and a coffee for $10. They don’t offer specialty coffee drinks, but it’s a good cup of coffee. My food arrived quickly, and was a good portion (especially for the price). I was a bit shocked to be the only patron. I’ll keep swinging by for a good breakfast.“
