Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Gulf Breeze

Went for a date night and have never been before. Restaurant is large but considering the size it’s not overly loud. Waitress was amazing, made great suggestions. Our food was also amazing! We had the smoke fish dip, grilled salmon with sweet potato hash and the grill tuna with whipped potatoes. Both of our plates were completely empty when we were done. Prices are comparable to any higher end restaurant, especially out at the beach with seafood. Definitely recommend and will go again.

For Valentine's Day dinner, we ordered the whole fresh Red Snapper for two, prepared in a unique way. It was baked under a shell made of salt and egg whites which was expertly served tableside by the Executive Chef, Johnny. He carefully removed the top portion of the shell, brushed away any remaining bits, revealing the beautiful steaming Red Snapper below. He then expertly removed the bone and served each of us a portion of the flaky, flavorful fish. It was wonderful! The side dishes were also very good, Mediterranean Rice, broccolini, and sliced fingerling potatoes. All of it was exceptional. For dessert, they had a special Sweet Charcuterie platter that had been prepared by the Sous Chef. It was a really wonderful variety of sweet treats. We would highly recommend Salt Restaurant.

Bonsai is excellent. The food quality, preparation, presentation, and service is outstanding. We live in the Pensacola Beach/Gulf Breeze area and Bonsai is our favorite go to place for an especially good meal. Rob, Calvo, Christina and the whole staff welcome us and ensure we are satisfied with our food and drink selections. Highly recommend you experience it for yourselves.

Wonderful early Valentines dinner here. I had the coconut sea bass which was the best I’ve experienced; he had the pork chop and enjoyed that. Attentive staff, beautiful restaurant, great location. Good music but it was a little too loud for me, considering the serene atmosphere. Wonderful place for a special date.

The food was delicious! We loved the char-gilled oysters. We ordered 12 and could have eaten another 12. We were all adults and enjoyed the quiet and low key atmosphere. Nice waiter and my blackened gulf shrimp was delish.
