    Two of us greatly enjoyed crab cakes for starter with main courses of Shrimp and Grits as well as the Red snapper. All three were delicious. Wonderful view and excellent service. A great pleasure.

    Our diner at the Beach Walk Cafe was the finest dinner experience we've had in quite a while and we come from Chicago, one of the country's bastions of fine dining. Everything about our dinner was perfect. The ambiance of the room, the exceptional service, an interesting wine menu with out of the ordinary selections, and the amazingly wonderful food. I wish we could have brought this restaurant back home with us. We'll be back the next time we are in Destin!!

    Bummer one: no valet, and with no easy parking we took the risk and parked on the curb outside the Inn. The building is very nice and clearly a more luxury type location, in line with my expectations, so it was odd there was no valet on a Saturday night. The entry was well appointed and comfortable. Bummer two: the restaurant manager (per his name tag) working the checkin provided the coldest welcome I would have expected from such a pretentious venue. It was like our reservation was interrupting his highly important duties at 5:35. Not a good first (or second) impression. Eder was a good server, heck I remember his name because of it. He was welcoming and tended to us well. The swordfish and tuna were both cooked properly with complementing sides. We skipped dessert to enjoy a different venue for that. The old fashioned was good but watered down due to too much ice. The price was in line with my expectation, and the food quality and portions were on par as well. Worth another try on a future trip to the area - personnel can change and the view will always be great.
