Named a “World’s Best Beach Restaurant” and the “Ultimate Beach Snack Shack” by the Travel Channel, Pompano Joe’s on Scenic Gulf Drive in Miramar Beach brings affordable, fresh Gulf seafood with a Caribbean flavor to one of the Emerald Coast’s most beautiful stretches of water. Beachfront tables, unobstructed Gulf views, and outdoor seating built for sunset-watching frame a menu of fresh catch prepared with island-style flair. It’s a step down in price and pretension from the larger Destin spots, which is the whole point, delivering honest beach food at honest prices right on the water.
