Top 12 Budget-Friendly Restaurants Near You in in Crestview, FL

Kitty Carlisle My family treated me to dinner at Emerald Isle Seafood during my visit to FL from AZ and I was very impressed. The atmosphere was welcoming, with the walls decorated in an oceanic theme and the background music the perfect volume (low enough for patrons to easily converse, while loud enough to enjoy the classic/popular selection). The staff were not only extremely friendly and professional, our waitress in particular was accommodating by offering helpful suggestions to alternative dishes so I could adhere to my restrictive diet. Her memory was sharp as our group of 5 made changes as we ordered and as we eventually even added food to go (tuna dip for more out of town guests arriving the next day and frozen alligator tail to cook at a later date). I was pleasantly surprised when she produced a gluten-free and dairy-free menu that detailed which foods were compliant and which could be prepared in such a way as to not adversely affect those with dietary allergies or sensitivities. Of particular note was the delicious food: prepared to perfection and in generous portions. The creamy, Smoked Tuna Dip was flavorful (and rapidly consumed), and the Surf and Surf (shrimp and snow crab legs) was specially prepared without spices for me and was still absolutely mouth watering. And the Buffalo Chicken Tender PoBoy, Mahi-Mahi Orleans, Chicken Strip Sandwich with Texas toast were all eaten with gusto. This dinner was a highlight of my visit so far and plans were made to return for both lunch and dinner in the future. I highly recommend this little gem of a restaurant and look forward to coming back the next time Im in the area.

Jason Im giving this place 5 stars because its a good place for good food for a fair price. Dont come here and expect a blow your mind experience. Nothing here "wowd" me. But the people are friendly. The food was fresh and the dessert bar was on point! Go check it out.

Brandy Lombardino Stopped because we saw the billboard on i10 man am I so glad we did! The cashier was amazing and took time walking us through the options and her favorites. - we went with her recommendations and they were spot on, grilled fish tacos and fried shrimp w/ cheese grits. Great little spot, super clean and great staff we will be back

Kaysen Cooke We stopped in for lunch. Staff was kind and attentive and brought a coloring book for our toddler. The pizza is the best in town, by far. I got the small top line and took half home (I’m already excited to eat it tomorrow!) and my husband got the chicken bacon ranch. Everything was cooked to perfection and the ranch was amazing. I’m so glad this place is here, stop in and support a local pizza joint!

Jason Riley Very nice and polite people. This is a very CLEAN and organized food truck. The prices are reasonable and the food is fresh, hot and delicious.Try it for yourself!

Jaeden Eatmon This is without a doubt the best Panera I have been in. Upon entering the store, I noticed how clean it was and my experience only became better when I began ordering. I didn’t catch her name, but the way the cashier spoke to me and took my order made me feel like I had known this person for years, it was just easy to order, she was easy to speak to. Something that seems to be kinda rare in my opinion. Usually, ordering is a hassle so this was a very nice change of pace. The food: Food was the usual Panera food but the items tasted very fresh and warm. The buns on my sandwich weren’t burnt which can be a usual problem at Panera. Good job to this Panera and I hope it stays this way. To the order taker (indoors) working at 9:20 ish AM on a Wednesday, thank you so much for your kindness.

Chuck Runfola We sat up at the bar. Our bartender was fantastic! Everything ordered to perfection and appetizers were spot on. Nothing to complain about. Highly recommend.

Tyeshia Pegram This was my first time at this location. It was a Thursday afternoon and it was not crowded at all! I felt welcomed and appreciated. Sever was amazing and service was also great. I did go to the bathroom is always clean and taking care of. There is street parking unsure if there is a parking lot. I do highly recommend this spot !

Anita N. Most of our food was really good. They have exceptional customer service!!! Was a little disappointed in the four cheese grill. It needs to be on dense bread and pressed down. It was odd to have that bread with the cheeses and it was not tasty. The tomato soup was also not my taste. Brownies fall apart while eating. They could be thicker and easier to eat as brownies are not usually soft and crumbly. Everything else was great.

John and Donna Williams Two of us for lunch. We ordered grilled catfish and hamburger steak. I wanted to try their Chili so I ordered it as one of my sides. My friend opted for salad bar as his sides. Server told me that the Chili would take a little while so she gave me a small salad bowl. The catfish and hamburger steak were very good but the salad bar was the star of the show. Fresh and cold with a plethora of choices. Really enjoyed the bleu cheese dressing and Bleu cheese crumbles. Dont miss the SALAD BAR! Thanks HUB!

Lmchic nonya The hubby and I stopped in for brunch and overall had a decent experience. Service was good, especially considering there were only two servers covering the whole dining room. They did a nice job keeping up with everyone. I do wish there were a few more non-breakfast brunch options on the menu. My Paloma cocktail was refreshing and delicious. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles — the waffles were perfectly crispy, but the chicken could use a little more flavor. I went with the steak and eggs, which I’d rate about 3/5, but the brunch potatoes were amazing — seasoned just right and definitely the highlight of my meal. All in all, we enjoyed our visit and would come back, but a little more variety and consistency in the dishes would make this place even better.

Mary Brewster First time for my daughter and I. She had the western omelet w/hashbrown and biscuit; I had ham and cheese omelet w/hashbrown and biscuit. She also had the tomato gravy. Both were delicious and plenty of food! The biscuits were NOT prepackaged like other places! You could tell they were made from scratch and to die for. Will definitely be going back. The staff were friendly and prompt with service.
