First Pompano Joe's - than this - Two for two strikes on Destin favs from last year for us. The steak was gristly and the portions were smaller. We were charged 2 cooking fees for one steak because we split it. Same order, same cooking request - just an extra charge for cutting the steak? We didn't even ask it... more

You know one never knows what to expect when going to a new place to eat. Callahan's was almost exactly what I expected. When we arrived we were seated immediately. There is nothing romantic and really no ambience to speak of at Callahan's. Seating choices were tables/chairs and booths were be picked a table. Our waiter was excellent. Our order... more

We visited this restaurant for lunch - both had soup and a Rueben sandwich. This was the best Rueben sandwich I have had in a long time. Just the right amount of corn beef. We brough dessert back to the condo - key lime pie and key lime cheesecake - excellent! Will recommend this restaurant and plan to go back. more

We saw all of the great reviews for this place and just had to find it when we got to Destin. We were not disappointed. We went for lunch on a Monday and the place was quite busy. We didn't really have to wait but a couple of minutes. They had a list of at least 10 specials and had... more

We dined at Callahan's early weekday evening. The restaurant was a pick for us due to the great reviews here at TA. So far TA has never steered me wrong. The restaurant looked very new. We enjoyed the rolls and butter. The rolls were dinner rolls but had a corn muffin taste. Very good. The waiter offered my daughter a... more

If you are looking for a large variety of foods, large portions, reasonable prices...this is the place for you. Both of us had the chicken with rice soup...good. My wife had the porkchops....dipped in a lot of batter and deep fried. The mashed potatoes were covered in a thick, bland, brown gravy, bread was stale. I had liver and onions....liver... more

We ate at Callahan's for the first time on 1/27/09. My husband had the prime rib and raved about it -- said it was as good as McGuire's. I had a delicious rib eye steak sandwich. The soups were outstanding, and the blueberry cobbler dessert was amazing -- a huge portion of cobbler with two giant scoops of vanilla ice... more
