Amazing Family Seafood restaurant. Not fancy, just delicious. Not in the mood for seafood? No problem, they have plenty of other foods to choose from. Highly recommended.

Excellent location. Good food & service was out of this world. Felt like we were rock stars…….
Worth a go to the steak was cooked perfectly. The crab claws were battered and golden fried to perfection… Try yourself the bread pudding after your dinner. It was good and I was really appreciative that they had the amberbock Michelob product cold beer.

Man, this place is amazing. If you want the snow crabs, come early. I missed that window, but I sure did well with the surf and turf (Gulf Coast Shrimp). Although it looks amazing, it tastes even better.

I’ve been there only 4 times so far and I refuse to not leave a review. I normally don’t leave reviews but I must on this one. First of all it’s a really good environment. We are people of color and are used to being treated differently at times. Well, the moment that we entered was treated warm by the friendliest host with that southern touch. Very nice and attentive to EVERYONE. The food is always amazing and we always get enough food! They are not stingy with their meals either. I’ve gotten full every time I’ve been there. So,when you visit this place, please go hungry or you will be taking home a to go box. This is one of our new favorite places to eat. We’ve been telling all of our friends who visit us to check this out. I think they sale fresh seafood as well. This is a charming place! I hope they never change a thing except expand if they have to. It has this authentic southern feel about the atmosphere. We really enjoy it there. It’s rare to get great food, plenty of it with amazing service. Thank you guys for being there! Thank you for being friendly to all. It’s noticeable. I highly recommend this place . You have to try it once and I promise that you will go back.

Emerald Isle is certainly one of the best restaurants in Crestview. Besides having an incredible blackened Mahi sandwich, they have EXCELLENT seafood gumbo and delicious hand-cut shoestring French fries. I have become a bit of a seafood snob over the years, but everything I’ve had here is good.

The service is consistently good as well, and it has a relaxing atmosphere. You can dress up or down, go on a date or take the whole family, and it will be a good time. This restaurant provides a small town feel with high-caliber food and service. I honestly can’t recommend them enough.

If you run into an evening when you just can’t decide what to do for dinner, head to Emerald Isle. You won’t regret it.

We went to EI on a recommendation from a friend, and wow, are we glad we did! I don’t eat tuna fish, but my husband ordered the smoked tuna dip. I tried it and it was absolutely delicious! It tasted so much better than I imagined it would. I had steak and grilled shrimp and my husband had a smorgasbord of seafood…shrimp, scallops, etc. It was all completely delicious. The food was seasoned perfectly and there wasn’t a boring bite to be had. We will definitely be back and would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys seafood. Oh, and the cheesecake and bread pudding were enough by themselves for a repeat visit!

I do have to saw that the crawfish boil was pretty good. But… that’s about it. The rest of the items on the menu were either bland or over-salted. The service was awful: our waitress seemed annoyed to have to serve us, and from the first item we ordered, immediately brought us the check as if to tell us to “shoo” even though we weren’t done ordering (still had a menu and specifically stated we would order more, including dessert). I think we got our check three or four times!

Edited to fix typos.

My wife and I decided we needed to get out for a little while and spend some quality time together. She wanted to see a movie, so we looked to see where it might still be playing, and Crestview was the closest to us.

We got ready, took Little Man next door to the in-laws’ and headed southeast. On the way, we started discussing what we wanted to eat. Now, typically, when we’re in Crestview, we got to my favorite pizza place in the Florida panhandle. (Y’all know. Keep reading…) But we’d had pizza the day before and weren’t really ready for it again. So she started looking while I drove. We talked about a couple of places before reading the menu for Emerald Isle Seafood Restaurant and Market. We made a mental note and kept browsing. That’s when she found the ice cream shop downtown. I suggested that we go back and pick somewhere to eat based on the desserts they offered.

That’s when we found the brownie a la mode at Emerald Isle Seafood (EIS, going forward). So we set the GPS and kept on going.

As soon as we got close, I realized that back when I worked in Crestview, I drove by this place a dozen times a day. I’d often looked at it but had never eaten there. We parked a little after 4 pm. and went right in. There were a few places readily available for us in the dining room on the right-hand side of the building, so they seated us straight away. Our server was Haley (I hope I spelled it correctly), and she brought us menus and took our drink orders. She came back to visit a few times before we made up our feeble minds, but my wife opted for the blackened Mahi Mahi with steamed veggies and coleslaw while I ordered a platter with fried fish strips and shrimp with fries and seasoned rice.

Soon after, the place was packed! There were 3 wonderful ladies sitting behind my wife that I spoke to who are regulars who come specifically for the mudbugs (crawdads for the uninitiated and crayfish for our friends from north of the Mason-Dixon). One of them offered me one before we left, and they were phenomenal.

So anyway, our food gets to the table, and we dig in. Mine was incredibly hot, so I waited for a moment. Kristy asked me if I’d like to try her Mahi, so I did. It was cooked PERFECTLY. It flaked right off with the fork and was moist and delicious. I finally got a bite of mine, and it, too, was fried splendidly. The seasoned rice could have used a bit more seasoning, but a dash or two of salt and pepper helped out. While the fries were a basket full. All in all, the food was stupendous.

But.

If y’all remember, why was it we picked this EIS? Anyone? That’s right, the brownie a la mode. Haley brought us our dessert and two spoons, and we dug in. Oh. My. Goodness. The brownie was rich while the ice cream was so soft it almost felt whipped. There was chocolate syrup drizzled all over it. It was the perfect ending to our meal.

I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. My biggest regret is that I didn’t try them sooner. The food is the main attraction and it was amazing. The service was outstanding, and Haley was very personable and answered all our questions. If she didn’t know the answer, she found them out for us. Most importantly, she never let our glasses get low. 100% satisfied. And to my Lousianner ladies, thank y’all for indulging an inquisitive man and taking the time to talk to me.

This place came recommended. Very disappointed though. The sauce on my wife’s fish (Mahi Mahi Orleans) was disgusting. After she scraped it off she was able to eat the fish thankfully. My oysters were overcooked and without flavor. Shrimp was ok. Calamari was good. Sorry we won’t be back.
