Best Authentic Restaurants in Pensacola

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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Valentine’s dinner at Brother Fox last night. I’ve been wanting to come here since they opened and we finally had the opportunity and I’m so happy that we did. The food is absolutely amazing and was above and beyond any expectation I had. We are going to make more of an effort to come to Brother Fox and Sister Hen in the future. Thank you Chef and team for sharing your amazing talent with Pensacola!

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.

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.
