Chanticleer Eatery is located in Grayton Beach off the beaten path but well worth the effort to find. It is a local’s spot and a hidden gem of a restaurant that actually makes food from scratch in portions large enough to fill you up and creative enough to encourage you to work your way through the menu. It is not about fancy food it is all about good food and good company. You are welcome to wear your flip flops and shorts at both dinner and lunch and you may even bring your fur baby if you would like to sit outside! We make everything we can from scratch and feel like if something doesn’t require and good bit of effort it is probably not worth doing. We hope you will join us and allow us to serve you, Food Worth Crowing About!!
Burgers, steaks & chops are served at this comfy joint with an outdoor patio & a casual ambiance.

What makes this place special is the incredibly friendly staff and delicious food. The sandwiches are on homemade bread and our do delicious. The Ruben and Club are favorites. The Shrimp and Grits are so yummy. The creamy cheddar grits are the perfect comfort food. Highly recommend ordering them as a side as well. The side salads are also delicious and a generous size. Both indoor and outdoor seating are available.

Wonderful find just outside the craziness of the tourist main drag. Indoor and outdoor seating. Nice music playing overhead. Great photo art on the walls for sale. Picasso like artwork of chickens on the tabletops. Great date location. Happy hour drink prices are only $6 and delicious. Not watered down either. The house side salad was large enough to share and the in house made orange sesame dressing is delicious. The crab cakes were very good with plenty of crab,not just filler. My date asked for her steak to be cooked well, no pink. First attempt was not successful but second attempt was just right and it didn’t come out tough. It was still tender and tasty. Dessert was Key lime pie/cheesecake. It was to die for. Huge slice. Definitely shareable. Our server Lucas was knowledgeable and personable. Excellent at his job. A definite stop again when we vacation in the area again.

This is a really great spot to get something to eat. I really can’t wait to come back and try some more items on the menu because what we had was amazing.
The place is very easy to find and there is plenty of parking. We sat outside which was a lovely place to sit and talk. It wasn’t too loud.
I had the grilled cheese. My partner had the biggest Ruben sandwich that I’ve ever seen in my life. The sweet potato fries were very tasty and some of the best that I’ve had recently. The food really was very good. And the service was also very good. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you

Excellent place. Awesome friendly service with truly great food. Side salads were hefty with perfect ingredient proportion and taste. The shrimp and grits and the jambalaya were both delish. Not over-seasoned and not under-seasoned. The chanticleer art and relaxed vibe is also plus. A thank you to Kimberly- our server.

Decent place to eat. Our waitress Kimberly was fantastic. She’s great management material and was a fantastic host during our visit. Food wasn’t too bad. Not the best quality for the price but still tasty. Good one time visit type of place. Make sure you have Kimberly as your server!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience here! This is a great little local restaurant with delicious food, charming decor, and great service. The hostess was very friendly and made us feel like we were old friends. Our server was the same, very personable and genuine. The bruschetta flatbread is delicious. The sweet potato fries are thick and tasty. Everything we ordered was great. We will definitely be back again soon.

Our group of eight celebrating a friend’s birthday was especially sweet because the staff that answered the phone and our server Megan made sure our orders were correct and considered food allergies. Generous portions, fresh fish, salads and sandwiches were delightful. Thank you for including a free cookie treat for the birthday girl.

My family and I were searching for a place to eat when we stumbled upon Chanticleer. We briefly looked at the menu online and decided to give it a try. The hostess sat us immediately and the waiter was very friendly and helpful. He informed us that the restaurant was previously a bakery and the cookies were amazing. Another waiter had informed us that the lunch menu was entirely different. He also told us that the restaurant makes all its own breads and the Reuben, in particular, was amazing.
The restaurant had a bar and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. The tables were decorated with hand-painted art. The walls were adorned with wonderful pictures of the local landscape.The bathrooms were very clean and they also had a family-friendly restroom.
We started with a couple of appetizers:
Calamari: The calamari appeared to be hand breaded and was very tender. The aioli dipping sauce was tasty and bright. I wish the portion was a tad larger given the price.
Lobster Bisque: The portion was generous and the soup had a very good flavor. It was silky and rich. I felt it could have used a few large chunks of lobster meat.
For our dinners, we ordered the following:
Catch with Shrimp: The fish of the day was grouper. It came in a garlic butter sauce. The sauce was divine. The two does we chose were creamed spinach and cheese grits. The creamed spinach was our favorite. It was rich and flavorful. The cheese grits could have used a tad bit of cream or something to loosen them. By the time they arrived at our table, they had seized up a bit. They were very cheesy and tasty.
Caprese Salad: This dish was very good. The nut less pesto and balsamic reduction were very tasty. The only issues I had with the dish were as follows: The tomato slices needed to be about half as thick and needed salt and pepper. Also, ditch the lettuce. I found myself rummaging through the lettuce to get more of those wonderful sauces.
Side of Collard Greens: The greens were very tender and well-seasoned.
Krioyo Pasta: The pasta, shrimp, and sausage were cooked perfectly. The pasta wasn’t over-sauced. The flavor of the rich and creamy sauce was amazing.
Tomato Basil Soup: The soup was a generous portion and very tasty, but I’m not sure it was worth the price. Admittedly, I’m not a fan of tomato Basil soups.
For dessert, we decided to try both varieties of cookies available. The first was a chocolate chip cookie. It was a chewy and delicious melty goodness. The second was a white chocolate and coconut cookie. Man, this was easily my favorite. The coconut flavor was strong and the cookie was chewy and moist on the inside. It was absolutely delicious!
The one thing that really disappointed me was seeing the almost $8 credit card fee.
We come to visit this area once a year and this restaurant is definitely on our list to revisit. I’m still trying to twist my wife’s arm into allowing us to come for lunch before we depart!

We liked this place so much we ate here twice during a short visit to Santa Rosa Beach. After an excellent lunch on day one, we came back for dinner the next night, and both visits were outstanding. The food was delicious, the staff were genuinely friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was relaxed and fun, with 70s and 80s pop music we really enjoyed.
We actually found the restaurant by googling the best key lime pie in Santa Rosa Beach, and theirs did not disappoint. It was so good we ordered it two days in a row. The staff explained that their key lime pie is more like a key lime cheesecake, and that’s exactly right: a creamy cheesecake-like texture, bright key lime flavor, just the right amount of sweetness, and a crust with toasted coconut that adds a really nice, unique touch. They also serve big, soft, warm chocolate chip cookies and white chocolate coconut cookies for dessert—both of which are fantastic.
For lunch, we both ordered the Southwest salad, which was generous in size and big on flavor. Everything tasted very fresh, and it had just the right amount of spicy kick. For dinner, I had the Jambalaya and my wife ordered “Not Your Mama’s Chicken and Rice.” Once again, both dishes were full of flavor and came in hearty portions.
Our only regret is that our trip wasn’t longer so we could try more of the menu. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Santa Rosa Beach.

Great food, my dad said the reuben was the best he’s ever had. The tuna was fresh and the bread sides were really good too. The inside atmosphere is nothing special but the patio is really cute.
