I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere! The fried crab cakes and crispy chicken fingers rank in the best I've ever had! Highly recommend!

We had 4 adults and 1 child. We arrived @ 6PM and waited about an hour. They do have a cute courtyard with live music while you wait. We were seated on the outside top deck so there was a great view of the boats. We ordered the fried shrimp with steamed vegs, the grilled shrimp dinner, the fried grouper... More

I loved the crab cakes along with the hush puppies. We had very good service. With the crab cakes I received fries, could've had less of them since they give you huge portions. Husband ordered the Captains Mate Dinner and the food was very good also. Again, huge portions...we couldn't eat it all. If you get to Destin, make sure... More

The food was great. We had a party of 12 and everyone liked their meal. Watched fireworks as we ate. Hostess was awesome. A little disappointed in our waiter. I would recommend this place for seafood and steaks.

Fresh & tasty seafood, my husband was dissapointed they didn't offer oysters on the half shell. I ordered extra hush puppies, scrumptious. They had an extra kick with the fresh jalepenos. Family of four with two kids, spent $100 with tip. Bar service not so great, overlooked for other walk up.

We pulled down a sandy road that looked like we were certainly going the wrong way. But, then we say the sign for Deweys a little place on the dock with tables both covered and out on the pier. It was very casual swimsuits ok. The service was great. The shrimp were the best ever and the lunch special red... More

Best hushpuppies around. Amazing Steamed and fried shrimp Went in the afternoon before the crowds. We watched the boats coming and going in the harbor. It was a very pleasant experience all around. Wait staff was GREAT.

Fried fish was good. Fried shrimp was bad. French fries were cheap frozen ones undercooked. The salads were cheap. The gumbo was way too spicey and absent of any shrimp. Dewey had better start supervising again. I'll pass on this place until it happens.

We have been to destin many times and had never heard of dewey destin until I found it here. I had it on my must go list! The reviews seemed to point to the Calhoun location. We went there first.
