Marina Bar & Grill

Marina Bar and Grill is one of my favorite spots in Sandestin for a laid back meal on the water. Maryanne the parrot is a boujee bird and the patio is genuinely dog friendly, which makes it an easy choice. Victoria was awesome and checked in often without hovering. Food came out fast, the views are great, and the whole place feels relaxing whether you stop in for lunch or a drink by the marina. Always a reliable go to in Baytowne and one of the most consistent restaurants in the area.

Did a quick pick-up order of grouper bites and fried shrimp; very good! Friendly bar staff! It it a great place to have a drink and people watch. They have a big screen set up on patio for all the sports fans!

We had a great experience at Marina Bar and Grill! Our waitress, Gretchen, was awesome—super friendly and on top of everything. The view overlooking the bay and marina is absolutely beautiful and creates such a relaxing atmosphere. The food is on the pricier side and could be a bit better for what you pay, but honestly, the view and overall vibe more than make up for it. Great spot to unwind and enjoy the scenery!

What a lucky find stumbling upon this place! The blackened mahi mahi tacos were bursting with flavor, and the mahi mahi sandwich with pineapple coleslaw was absolutely delicious. The coconut shrimp could rival those from Tropics Bar and Grill in Honolulu—crisp and perfect. The chicken wings, coated in tangy-sweet BBQ sauce, were cooked to perfection. The friendly staff and vibrant atmosphere, paired with a stunning dock view and ocean breeze, made it unforgettable. Highly recommend this spot for an incredible dining experience or a quick lunch getaway!

My husband and I went over to the marina area to rent bicycles and decided to grab a bite here for lunch. We both ordered the cobb salad which was DELICIOUS and enjoyed the view of the marina and all the boats while we ate. Also, meeting the restaurant’s adorable parrot, Mary Ann, was a pleasant surprise! The staff was all very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this spot!
