Exactly what I wanted in Destin - not too touristy, super fresh seafood (we had grilled and fried amberjack, popcorn shrimp) and by the sea. Can't ask for anything else. Will be my default lunch spot in Destin going forward.

Great location right on the beach
Great Happy Hour 3 to 5
Overpriced food
First place we went on our trip to Destin, mainly because it is right on the beach and it was getting late. They stay open later than most I think it was atleast 10pm. We had the seafood gumbo which was ok but nothing special. The gumbo came in a distant second to the best we had all week at the Boathouse. Tried two entrees the grouper destin and florentine. Main dishes were just ok nothing great should have been less than $20 each. The sides were corn medley (not worth eating) mashed potatoes( better than most we finished them all) and rice(good enough). Overall I would say it was an average meal at best and over priced. I don't mind paying a little more for a good meal and we had some in Destin but this was not one of them. Stick to happy hour and you will be ok. Oh and $6 oysters are not as great a deal as they seem -

A great location right on the beach. This place is known for their Amberjack fish, which according to the menu is " the fish that made the Back Porch famous."
I had lunch there today and enjoyed the great view and ordered that famous Amberjack sandwich. The sandwich was tasty, however the fish was sliced very thin, and I would not say it was famous. If you removed the lettuce, and the slice of an almost ripe tomato, there remained a bun with a slice of fish less than a 1/4 inch thick.
This place has a great view, but left me disappointed with the meal. -

This place is great. It's right on the beach and completly open air. I had the mahi mahi grilled with rice. They are known for their fried amberjack sandwich and my husband ordered that. I had a bite and it was very good.
