Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Orange Beach

Our reservation was at 12:45. We arrived at 12:15 The parking lot was full so we knew we would probably have to wait awhile. To our surprise, we were seated immediately. The brunch options were plentiful. My omelette was absolutely wonderful. My husband had the fresh berry French toast and he cleaned his plate. The server was friendly and very attentive. I hope to go back again soon! 

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.

You can’t go wrong with Louisiana Lagniappe! I’ve only been there 2 times but both times had great service and the food tasted amazing! Wish it was a bit cheaper but what you pay 💰for, is what you get right. Grouper Fish Entrees are always great! Grouper Pontchartrain is excellent and I got the Bayou Grouper last night! It was me and my girlfriend’s anniversary and I requested a Window Table and got it which was nice and they gave us a Complimentary Dessert for Free also! Bread Pudding was delicious 😋 , highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion!

It was another perfect night at Jackson’s in Pensacola! My husband and I had an early Valentine’s dinner and were lucky to get Matt, who was full of natural energy and so helpful, as our server. We had delicious steaks, mashed potatoes and shared a Caesar salad, but my favorite was the bread and butter and the dessert—I can’t remember the name, but it had toffee and Chantilly cream—but it was truly heavenly—thanks to Matt’s recommendation! Jackson’s is one of our favorites, and you must try if you are in Pensacola.

Dinner was excellent (fried green tomatoes and crab appetizer, ribeye steaks and grits, crème brûlée and cherry bread pudding for dessert, tawny port and rose, unsweetened tea and coffee). Jessica did a great job as our waitress. The music was a bit odd. The furniture on the lower level was new and comfortable. The chairs, however, could not be easily brought close to the table which made seating my wife and myself awkward. Valet parking was excellent. It is covered and you will never get wet, even in a monsoon. It is a great feature of this restaurant.
