saltwater grill

perfect anniversary dinner. my wife and i have been looking for the perfect place to celebrate our one year anniversary, and we finally found it! we've had a week of bad seafood restaurant experiences ranging from augusta, ga to biloxi, ms... and my wife was apprehensive (to say the least) to try another restaurant with strong reviews but with a menu that was slightly higher than our normal dining budget. we were not disappointed in the least with the saltwater grill.

our server, kimber, was more than helpful with the menu, as well as making sure our glasses stayed full and we were satisfied with every little detail of our food. we knew we had found the right place to eat just from the bread they brought out, it was pretty amazing. i had no idea what to get with the large menu so kimber suggested the scamp imperial (scamp grouper topped with lump crab). i always like trying the local favorite/thing i can't get elsewhere, and since they catch the scamp locally i figured why not. my eyes rolled when i took my first bite it was that good. we even got desert (which we normally don't do) because we figured if everything else wasgoodthe desert had to be amazing... and the key lime pie was.

the atmosphere was great, and the piano playing in the background added nicely to the ambiance. we were 110% satisfied with our visit, and even though our anniversary was a week ago we claimed this as our anniversary dinner.

good atmosphere,goodfood. the title says it all.

we were looking for somegoodseafood our last night in pcb, we found that and more here. we went around 530pm on a saturday with a party of 8. our server cecilia was friendly and attentive from start to finish and the food was excellent. we would highly recommend and will make it a regular stop when we are in town.

many times just the view of a restaurant’s parking lot is enough to convince someone that somethinggoodis going on inside. combine that with recommendations from our readers and we were really hedging our bets that saltwater grill was going to be pretty spectacular.

service was great, the decor and enormous fish tank were nice and thegoodwas excellent. i would highly recommend the ahi tuna and lobster spring rolls!

dayboat red snapper. simply amazing. the food is alwaysgoodhere, but the dayboat red snapper is exceptional. we come back every year!!! 🐟🐟🐟

we ate here the last night in panama city & it was the best place ever. the service was great. thegoodexcellent. we will definitely make this one of the first places we go back to

poor dining experience. on a positive note the staff was nice & the appetizer was good, but that's where it ends. the restaurant is to loud & the piano player kept singing, badly! we complained to our server but nothing was done. the food was pricey & notgoodat all, very bland & ordinary. for the same price you can get a great seafood meal at captain anderson's. this restaurant had suchgoodreviews but was an expensive disappointment.

happy customers. my boyfriend and i went here our first night in pcb and this was my favorite place we ate at during our stay. service, atmosphere, food quality and affordability altogether make this the perfect place to bring your family or just have a nice dinner for two. our server was super friendly and checked on us with the perfect amount of frequency even though they were very busy. we had the firecracker shrimp (because everyone's reviews about them on here enticed us) and luckily i got to eat some before my boyfriend devoured them all! we had the lobster bisque; it was a little thick and salty for me but we dipped our bread into it and it was verygoodlike that. i had shrimp & scallop penne a la vodka, i really liked it. and my boyfriend had sesame seared ahi tuna (which he loved, expect for the jasmine rice) and sides -snow peas and green beans, and seriously, the viggies are so fresh! apparently they have their own garden and it definitely shows. i know it's odd, but i can't rave enough about the veggies!

awesome restaurant. this is one of my favorite places in the whole world. if you go to pcb you need to come here. for a nice dinner it is the best in all of panama city beach. there are lots ofgoodplaces in pcb that you need to go to but if you come on vacay you need to eat here. grouper imerpieral is awesome and the scamp. do it. have corey as your server, drink some wine.

okay. so the food isgoodthe service is not sogoodhostess had a attitude tried to seat us in the back of the bus , then it took 10mins for are waiter to speak, after he spoke he finally was on his a game , but all of them look like the hate there job! not on the ateam

outstanding! as a local, salt water grill and bonefish are the only two places i will go to for my big night out for seafood. firefly, also but mainly for the ribeye. salt water grill is agoodrestaurant with alwaysgoodseafood. $20 average but worth it!goodplace for that special date or guest. i will always come back.

good place to eat. this was our 1st restaurant to try in pcb. very nice atmosphere. nice piano bar playing in the background. my wife ordered the mahi mahi and since she does not like seafood much she was worried. she loved it!!! i had a dinner salad the a shrimp cocktail. both were excellent. the restaurant is a little off the beach so we were hoping that it would begoodand we were not disappointed. of course the huge saltwater aquarium is a real selling point. it was amazing. we highly recommend the saltwater grill.

atmosphere is amazing (love the fish tank). the food is a little pricey, $20-$30 a person, but you get your money's worth. it's definitely worth it. lobster bisque is amazing as is the ribeye. mahi mahi isgoodtoo. the only portion that seemed small was the lump crab meat cakes. however, they were delicious. bloody mary was also amazing, and it was $5. they will hit you with some little charges if you're not careful--- $1 to blacken your fish; $3 for lobster bisque even though you get a "choice of soup/salad," etc.
overall, totally worth it, and our server bob was amazing. a top 5 pick to try in pcb.

great food; great atmosphere. my family and i ate here on our second night in town. the fish tank really keeps the little ones occupied while you're waiting on a table. i was told it would be an hour wait, which i was o.k. with, but the hostess moved some things around and got us seated in about 20 minutes. (kudos)
the server (trish) was reallygoodand kept our glasses full and usually had one infront of us before we were done with the first drink. the seafood selection is solid, and the salads, although small were complemented by some of the best dressings i've ever had! i dropped $146 for 6 people and overall i'm satsfied with the price for the quality of food and service we received.
