- BBrandonNorthwest Florida •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoThe escargot was our absolute favorite! The frenched wings are just perfect , but then the foie gras.. it’s an intense dining experience but in the best of ways so much flavor and everything is plated beautifully. To top it all off, the drinks were incredible – especially the Golden Boy definitely a must try. Highly recommend Iron for an elevated and delicious experience.More infoRestaurant IRONPrice: Expensive• Regional American (Southern)• Pensacola•4.9
- AAnitaMemphis •23 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis is mine and my husband’s ‘go to’ Restaurant when we want to have a great lunch! He ordered the shrimp & andouille, sausage, pasta, and a cup of French onion soup. I ordered their special of the day which was grilled salmon, covered in crab meat sauce, rice pilaf and sautéed vegetables.  As always, the food was served very hot, and was of the utmost quality. Our waitress was so patient with us, and very attentive. We have eaten at this restaurant probably 8 to 10 times, and never had an average meal, they were always great!More infoO'Brien's BistroPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Pensacola•4.5
- RRobertSan Francisco Bay Area •17 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoOne of our favorite restaurants in Pensacola to dine. This evening did not disappoint. We were seated at a bar high top as requested. Server was quick to take our drink order. Excellent Woodford old fashion and very entertaining to watch the amazing mixologists prepare drinks. Korean wing appetizer is delicious but a bit messy. Hangar steak was yummy as were the scallops either risotto. Short rib was also a winning entree. Portions are generous and sides are always very tasty!!More infoThe Union Public HousePrice: Moderate• Gastro Pub• Pensacola•4.8

From the time you enter the front door until the time you leave, you will be treated like royalty. The food is always excellent and the atmosphere, especially outdoors, is amazing. I can't think of a better place for a dinner date. Thanks again BWC!!More infoBeach Walk CafePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Destin•4.7
