We live in Navarre and always look forward to trying new places in Pensacola when we have appointments there. The Reservoir was an excellent choice yesterday. We opted to sit inside as it was a titch breezy but after checking out the patio area later, that will be our “ go to” spot on nice days. Charity, our server, was very attentive and took great care of us. The food was amazing. The chargrilled oysters were spot-on. The brussel sprouts were yummolicious! Just the perfect amount of balsamic… next time I may add chicken and make it a meal! My cuban was delish but I was also envious of my wife’s burger. I wish she hadn’t given me a bite as I wanted it all . We were happy to see they had draft beer from several local breweries. Support local!! And we loved that Kristen, part owner, was not only personally training the hostess but also made time to check in with each guest. Very nice location in a historical district and very nice they re-purposed a historical building. We will return!!

First the good. Cool location and vibe. Service was good too. The duck fat fries and the Brussels were delicious. Now the not so good. The Caesar salad was very bland. Almost no flavor at all. I asked for no pickles on my Cuban sandwich and was told that they couldn’t do that, and that they do premade sandwiches. Odd. Overall it seemed pricey for what we got.

Fantastic place! My son and I went here for lunch after golfing. Google map took us to a restaurant in a neighborhood. This is totally worth the trip and a try.
My son and I both ordered the linguine alfredo with basil pesto. We paid the additional fee for shrimp (choice of grilled or blackened-we chose grilled). The shrimp was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The grape tomatoes were super sweet and also grilled. The homemade Alfredo was perfectly seasoned and had a great texture- silky smooth.
Both my son and I enjoyed our lunch. Great restaurant and good atmosphere.

The brussel sprouts are amazing. The wait staff just as nice as can be. Great vibe. The clams were the best I’ve ever had. As someone who is a local. This restaurant is just what we needed, great pricing, great food, and it’s not another corporate owned box food place. 10 out of 10 will go back and I hope to see them be there for years to come.

We visited her for our Valentine’s Day date. The food was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! We got the bruschetta appetizer, and the burger and steak frites as an entree. Everything was FANTASTIC. I’m so glad we chose here for dinner. The food was so flavorful and wonderful quality – we both finished everything. Loved it, 10/10 coming back.

We LOVE Reservoir! We have been twice with large groups and it’s been awesome. The outdoor area is fenced in and perfect for the kids to play while you can enjoy great food, drinks, and wonderful service. Jazz has been our server both times and she is top notch, attentive and prompt! The owners are super sweet and present, checking in throughout our evening too. Highly recommend!!

This was our first time, although my daughter’s family had been here before. We had a choice of inside, outside, and either a table or picnic benches. We opted for the bench so that the little girls could run around on the playground equipment or play cornhole. Our server was Delmae, a lovely ambassador of Reservoir’s service. She saved my butt, running after us to the parking lot when I left my card in the portable card machine. It also turned out we had a Fla Gators connection, which is always a plus.
Reservoir is not just “bar food”, but great cuisine. The chargrilled oysters were up at Drago’s level, the mussels also excellent. Everyone loved the burger selections. The Cuban Dunk was as good as I have had anywhere. You can get a side salad instead of fries.
You have to know it is there. It is a couple blocks south of Cervantes, next to I-110. There was plenty of parking in the church lot across a quiet street.
See you again!

Great spot off the beaten path in Old East Hill. Started with the Pimento Poppers, which were the best part of the meal. The entrees, one with upgraded fries and one without, were good too. Our server seemed a little overwhelmed, but overall, the service was great. The place has a great atmosphere. When it’s a little cooler outside, the outdoor seating looks great. Overall a 5/5.

MUST GO!! AMAZING HIDDEN GEM! Tried out Reservoir for the first time and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and family-friendly. If you prefer a quieter, more romantic vibe, indoor seating is the way to go. I sat outside, and the energy was lively! Everyone was in good spirits, enjoying drinks and conversation. The Ponzu Chicken Sandwich with Duck Fat Fries was my favorite!! I can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu. Kudos to the chef!
