vue on 30a

must eat here. this beautiful spot should be tried at least once by everyone visiting santa rosa beach, fl. the food is divine andservicealways top notch. eat inside at the beautiful tables or outside overlooking the gulf and beach. yes, its pricey, but worth every penny! not a place for young kids, though.

disappointed. great view, friendly server, very disappointing food. risotto was a side dish on 2 of 4 entrees and wasn't done - it was actually crunchy, veal chop ordered med rare, was raw - not rare, raw-awkward for guest waiting for correction while rest of us ate, nothing offered while he waited. all salads were room temperature, and the wedge salad was mediocre at best - supposed to have pancetta - couldn't taste it, was ground up and bleu cheese tasted bottled. bread was not fresh and the flowers on the table are plastic (come on....really?) plus we were asked to hand them to the server so the bread basket could fit. . the filet was good. i have no issue with paying top $ for food &serviceas long as the product matches the price and in this case, it did not. i was so looking forward to it, i am a local and i will not be back.

fabulous view and great food!. this is our favorite place on 30a because of the amazing gulf view. theservicewas wonderful, our server was very attentive and the food was so good. this is definitely a place we are coming back to again and again, we can't wait.

too noisy for me. we went to the vue on 30a last evening to celebrate my husband's birthday. our reservation was at 5 o'clock because we wanted to enjoy the sunset. we were seated promptly with a lovely view of the ocean. our waiter was prompt in providing our drinks and water glasses were filled promptly throughout the evening. our used dishes were also removed almost as soon as the last bite left the plate. we ordered filet, grouper and t-bone and though all the meals were very good, i did not like the bread pudding that came with my steak. odd kind of a side and i would have preferred a choice of a regular potato or a pasta. also they charged us to share a salad which is crazy since salads are $12 and really too large for one person. what really spoiled the evening for us, however, was the live music playing in the lounge. when we entered, the lounge was full and yet we were the first people in the dining room. a party of 5 was then seated and then a couple of other tables. apparently most people were there for the music and drinks. the band started shortly after 5 and was very, very loud. we were somewhat taken aback as we could barely have a conversation with each other. i did ask the manager if the music was always that loud and she replied, "it is on saturday night!" there is no partition between the lounge and dining room so the noise is loud throughout the entire place. i would expect it at 7 or 8 o'clock, but did not expect to feel like i was eating in a bar at 5:00. other than a slight hitch in getting our food (table next to us seated 20 minutes after us got their food first). our waiter apologized and did offer us one complimentary dessert for the table to share (guess we all need to like the same dessert). that poor table next to us sent 2 chicken dinners back and then waited and waited. one woman never ate and the other took hers home. overall, theservicewas impeccable and the food was good and the atmosphere and view were great. however, they need to decide if they are fine dining or a lounge. i wouldn't pay that amount of money for a meal again to not be able to speak to my dinner companions.

well we made a reservation for 12, did i mention that we were coming in from texas, well anyway the reservation was made 10 days in advanced we are all excited until we arrived and a wedding reception was going on, "not open to the public".......never got a call , email,carrier pigeon, nothing !!!!! not the best way to run a business, don't understand when badservicebecame the norm.

very nice and quiet place to enjoy a fine meal while overlooking the beautiful gulf. theserviceis great and the food outstanding! this is not your typical fare. we had the scallops, shrimp and the grouper. everyone was pleased with their meal.

excellent. we enjoyed a nice dinner last night (7/12/12) at vue on 30a. we arrived on time for a 6:30 reservation and were seated immediately with a table along the windows overlooking the beach...one of the best views in the area.
sandi greeted us and explained the chef's offering that were not on the menu. we ordered wine and placed our order for a crispy oysters, shrimp/crab spring rolls, a wedge salad, the ahi tuna and whole lightly battered redfish.
all dishes were excellent and the whole fish was a fun choice...so much for proper table manners. theserviceprovided by sandi was outstanding. prices were in line with similar restaurants in the hwy 30a area.
we rank this in the in the top 10 in the destin/hwy 30a area. it's just a tad below our favorites cuvee bistro, fish out of water and v seagrove, but it's a great restaurant in an area with many excellent choices.

outstanding! greatserviceand excellent menu items! some very unique seafood selections, plus filets, veal, etc. excellent quality. this will be a new favorite in the area for sure - absolutely worth a repeat visit. many fine selections on menu so no lack of choices!
