Pompano Joe's

Delicious dining experience every time!
I've been to PJs several times. Every time I am down here in Destin, I go there. I usually get the coconut shrimp with a twice baked potato for my entree and Reggae Rolls as an appetizer. Both are delicious! I love their mango chutney dipping sauce!
The wait staff is always friendly and attentive, especially considering how busy that place gets! We got there around 6pm in (this is in mid-July) and there was a very large crowd. I went on in go put my name on the waiting list and surprisingly was told it'd only be about a 20-30 minute wait. They took my name and cell number and was told that I would receive a text when our table was ready. I then received a text stating that we were on the waiting list (I am assuming this was a confirmation that the text went thru/ worked). Went to the outside bar and ordered some drinks and sat outside on the patio and listened to a small band play music. Roughly 30 minutes later, our table was ready.
I ordered my usual, my husband had a seafood platter and my -3 yr old son had the Amberjack "Antigua"... All of us were very satisfied with our meals. Oh- we also ordered a basket of crab claws for an appetizer. They were a little small, but tasted very good.
The place gets busy and very crowded, but is a family friendly atmosphere overlooking the beach (as it is on the beach!)
Great view, great service, great food and drinks. Price is a little steep, but not necessarily any more than the others around here...and I think the food is better at PJs. It is a tourist restaurant, but I'm ok with that!
Dress is casual.  Highly recommend and will most certainly be back!

Fresh, tasty food right on the beach!  You could tell everything was made in house.  A must go in Destin.

WOW! Great beach view, cute restaurant. Reasonably priced. Huge menu.
Lunch menu, even on Saturday. The seafood nachos were awesome and very large portions loaded with seafood. They were soooo good! I wish I would have found this place sooner, I would have eaten here several times. Cucumber salad was huge topped with shrimp & crabmeat. Best place we ate on our trip. Loved it. Beach is beautiful.
Tip~go early at 11 for lunch, there was no wait for a table & We found a close place to park.
