Does anyone know of a fairly new resturant in Ft Walton Beach that is a great place to take kids and possibly you can see Dolphins??? Someone was trying to tell me about one they have heard about but didnt really know much info.

It's on a little street right before you go over the Destin bridge heading out of town. Right behind McGuire's. Tiny street...turn right and then left at the next little driveway....

It is not expensive as far as I remember. We had burgers, fish sandwiches, tuna salad ect and with beers and soft drinks, I believe for the 4 of us it was in the 30.00 range. Well worth it, my kids love the pictures we have of the dolphins swimming by us as we ate lunch!

Anglers on Okaloosa Island next to the Gulfarium is a good place too. Eat outside on the (covered) deck, the dolphins off come by and there is a playground for the children.

Dewey Destin's can work well because even if there aren't dolphins out, there tend to be a lot of other birds, crabs, and such to look at. It's a counter service restaurant, place your order, find a picnic table on the dock, and they then bring your food out to you. Fish sandwich and fries runs about $8-$9. Friend baskets are a bit more, and I don't remember the kids' menu.

They can get very busy during the summer and even busier on the weekend when boaters from Crab Island come by for some food. I'd either go early, or call in a take-out order on the way there.

There's also a Crab Trap in the Boardwalk beach complex on Okaloosa Island that's okay for food but not outstanding.

Dewey Destin's is located on a road called Calhoun. It is the last road before you go over the Desitn bridge to the right. Immediately when you turn on Calhoun take the 2nd driveway past some shabby looking buildings til the road ends. Dewey Destin's is a little shack on the water with picnic tables on the dock. Great fish sandwich.
