**Dining at Gilligan's: A Mixed Experience**
Gilligan’s offers a blend of warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere, highlighted by a beautiful harbor view. While the friendly staff and cleanliness received high praise, the culinary offerings fell short for many patrons. Disappointment stemmed from dishes like soggy crab cakes and bland mac and cheese, contrasting with the seafood favorites such as generous shrimp portions in po'boys and excellent blackened mahi-mahi. Despite some standout items and the charm of the restaurant, the inconsistency in food quality left diners with mixed feelings. For a laid-back seafood joint, Gilligan's has potential but needs to refine its menu.

Feedback
As soon as I walked in, I was warmly welcomed by the friendly staff. The restaurant was spotless and well-kept, and I appreciated that the employees were wearing face masks and gloves. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a nice touch given the ongoing COVID-19 precautions. I ordered a shrimp po'boy, and I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion of shrimp. Overall, I would give this restaurant a five-star rating for its prompt service and flavorful, hot food. I will definitely return and will recommend it to friends and family looking for a great seafood experience in the area.
Went last summer, food was yummy! Went by this summer just 2 weeks ago) and it was closed down. :
A hidden GEM of a seafood joint in Destin, looks very hole in the wall from the front, but don 't turn around! Excellent fried and grilled shrimp, which are enormous by the way, but nothing too greasy! Very clean, speedy service that brings food right to your table. And the view was phenomenal. I was in a pasta mood so I got the fettuccine and I 'll definitely be coming back for more. If you 're looking for seafood without the crowds, this is the place. Will also mention their alcohol selection is great. Drive here. Search no more.
Soggy grilled crab cakes. Tuna dip was good. Mac n cheese was old, green beans tasted canned. Husband 's shrimp tacos were rated a 3. Customer service was very friendly, but would def never go back.
