Wanted a nice, romantic, waterfront dinner out with my wife while on vacation....and it was a dud! We are no strangers to expensive restaurants so we know what to expect (wonderful atmosphere, top-notch service, perfect cuisine). I had looked forward to eating at this place for days! This place it not waterfront at all. The atmosphere was OK. Picture a... more

What a great meal we had a Destin Chops 30a. The host was warm and friendly upon arrival and made sure we had a booth as requested during reservation. We started our meal with some great crabcakes and beef carpaccio. Our server "AJ" then suggested we get the Wild Salmon and the Bone In Filet. All we can say is... more

The location of this establishment is in an upscale neighborhood, therefore expectations run high. The decor, and the atmosphere will meet these expectation, but the steaks will not if you are comparing to Mortons, Ruth Chris, Del Friscos and others. The managment of this establishment is making a valiant attempt in trying to turn the business around with nightly specials... more

I can't wait to come back to the Destin area this spring & will definitely spend many nights at Chops as I did last year! The staff is so amazing and took such good care of me... I enjoyed the amazing wine selection and the sushi was the most creative and freshest I have had - ever. I have been... more

We had a great time at Destin Chops. We arrived on a busy friday night and were greated by friendly host at the front door. Our table was ready and from then on the excellent service was the theme of the night! Our Server "Don" did a great job of tour guiding us through a large menu. Our steaks and... more

On a Saturday night we decided to have sushi and a drink at Destin Chops. We sat at the bar, ordered our drinks and sushi. Bartender was very friendly we got our drinks very fast. As far as the sushi was concerned we waited more than 40 minutes to get it. In the same time a couple got the sushi... more

My wife and I booked a reservation through opentable.com for dinner at 8:00. We arrived about five minutes early to a packed bar and were informed by the hostess, who was apprarently trying to create a hauty vibe, that they "were trying to play catch up" and that if we could wait in the bar we would be seated in... more

We waited thirty minutes to be seated, even with a reservation. Table was still being set when we sat down. No water was given. We got calamari appetizer, it was horrible. All breading and very little squid. We ordered 3 salads and only got 2. Finally the steaks came after waiting one hour and they were cooked incorrectly. They all... more

SKIP THIS RESTAURANT! The SERVICE and FOOD are poor. We have been going to Destin for the last 25 years and have eaten at many restaurants in the area. This had to be the worst. First of all we had a reservation and upon arriving we had to wait for 10 minutes to be seated. It appeared they didn't have... more
