About the restaurant
OpenTable offers limited booking. If you do not see a time you are interested in or have a party of 5 or more guests, please give us a call at (850) 534-0400.

Restaurant Paradis is a small fine dining restaurant, with an inviting full service lounge. We are committed to serving fresh seasonal ingredients, celebrating our local produce and an abundance of fresh Gulf seafood, along with prime steaks and fine wines.

As a favorite destination for locals and visitors since 2009, advance reservations are strongly recommended, especially for holidays and the summer months. Walk-ins are occasionally accepted when space is available.

You are welcome to bring your own highchair or booster seat if you are dining with a child. The restaurant does not provide them.

Outstanding soft shell crab; rich and full enough for my entree. Great service, and the best rye Manhattan always. Arugula salad and crab cake set the standard for these 2 appetizers for my wife. We have been dining here for past 20 years; always the best experience: service, ambience, and value. On other visits the elk tenderloins and the grouper and red snapper entrees are always the best! Restaurant Paradise is indeed the BOMB! 🍷🥩

About the restaurant
The Grand Marlin Restaurant features a main dining area with a shucked to order oyster bar, exterior North Drop Bar overlooking Grand Lagoon, and private meeting rooms. This Panama City Beach restaurant, with an air of island casualness, serves the highest-quality cuisine, including the freshest local seafood featured on menus designed and printed daily to take advantage of the local bounty. The atmosphere creates a fusion of the Caribbean and the Panama City Beach Area. Corporate Executive Chef Gregg McCarthy has a passion for great-tasting food and particularly loves working his culinary magic with fresh Gulf Coast seafood. Boaters and beach-goers feel comfortable in shorts and flip-flops at the oyster bar, in the dining room and at the North Drop Bar. The Grand Marlin has a space and atmosphere for all occasions and is looking forward to creating an authentic experience between time and tide.

The food was excellent and came out hot and tasty.  The wine choices were great. Loved the decor and it felt light and airy. We could have great conversation without having to raise our voices.

About the restaurant
Inspired by El Floridita, Hemingway’s favorite haunt in old-town Havana, The Pearl Hotel's signature restaurant offers a comfortable, communal ambiance full of life and steeped in the joy of living, eating and drinking well.

Enjoy Gulf Coast Americana cuisine with Caribbean influences that is also seamlessly merged with a contemporary local philosophy as meats, fish and produce are harvested from family-owned, small-producers on the Gulf Coast.

Papa Hemingway himself would’ve loved the hand-carved mahogany bar, the perfect spot for enjoying an expertly muddled cocktail, craft beer or fine wine after a day of running with the bulls or battling the mighty marlin.

Havana Beach Bar & Grill is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily. Dinner reservations are recommended.

Joel was a wonderful waiter for my wife and I. He made it very special for us as it was a date night since it was our anniversary. He even brought us a dessert with a little chocolate that said happy anniversary. We ordered the filet mignon and it was exceptional
