Yum, Yum!. Steaks, ribs, catfish - all have been cooked to perfection. Love the cactus blossom, fried pickles, rattlesnake bites - it's hard to choose for an appetizer. Milton could do with some more good franchise sit-down restaurants where you know the food will always be good.

We stopped while driving through Milton and I was a little skeptical we could find a good coffee shop in a little old panhandle town. Also, we pulled in 15 mins before their closing time, so I was also concerned we would even be served.
I shouldn't have been worried, the staff greeted us like old friends and the coffee was great. The coffee shop is also really nice, the kind of a place to hang out in for a bit.

Since 1955 Tastee Freez has been serving treats in Milton Florida. Try our cooked to order goodness. We are quick but not 'really' 'fast-food'.
We have tried it twice, first drive through and then going inside. Ice cream was ok first time. When we went inside we almost left right away. Place is very old looking and nasty. Ice cream was not good and I ended up throwing it away. Place seems as it is old and had not been taken care of. We could not believe how dirty this place was and was afraid to eat any food from it.

Coffee, espresso, bagels to start your day off right!
Was in the area and wanted to try this place out. Located in a little strip area with other stores. Spacious area, comfortable seating. This place looks like it would be great for groups to meet. Today they actually had a large group of military wives. The menu for the drinks was listed - I wished they had a paper menu so you knew what each drink consisted of. The drinks could be made hot, frozen, or iced. The specialty drinks had a description. They also sold " create your own" - using menu items to build your bagel or crossiant. I got a bacon, egg, and cheese crossaint with the Cinco de mocha specialty drinks. The crossaint was really good. I didn't care for the drink. I got it iced. The flavor wasn't really substantial. Kind of watery but then you did get a kick off cinnamon that liberty lingered. Overall it was an okay place.

By the reviews, decided to try this place while traveling through Pennsacola area. Staff is helpful and friendly. We ordered ribs, which were tasty, and a huge amount for the serving. Sauce was wonderful.We ordered extra sides and split the rib dinner. The problem, the sides of mashed potatoes, collards, and green beans were all luke warm. A real no-no for food safety. They would have been really good hot. Maybe just an off night? Don't know.

We invite you to visit us and enjoy the best Mississippi Catfish and Gulf Seafood found anywhere. David's in Milton is your place for good ole "comfort food." Everything is prepared the old fashioned way...hand battered in a light cornmeal batter for the fish, and light flour batter on the shrimp, oysters and crab claws. Our secret recipes are made from scratch and everything is cooked to your order and always served fresh. We don't have a microwave oven in the building!
I am not a fish eater but I went with a friend who is. I had the chicken sandwich. It was on a hoagie bun which made it a very large sandwich-more than I could eat. Tasted good but was a little disappointed in the fact that it was 3 chicken fingers and not a full piece of chicken. Makes a little hard to keep sandwich together.

Recipient of the Best Restaurant Milton and Outstanding Business of the Year: Mainstreet Florida awards. It is owned and operated by a Navy Lt. Commander. The food is creative with a fantastic appetizer Artichoke Cheesecake and their entrees are great. Favorites include the Beef Wellington and Shrimp and Gouda Grits. Full bar available, with beer, wine, delicious hand crafted cocktails.
We decided to five it a try. Great sandwiches and our server was great. I am so glad we didn't have the other server, she was highly inappropriate. She was making sexual innuendos to a young man who was sitting with his father. Really bizarre behavior, dancing and shaking around. Don't think I will revisit in fear that she would be my server, It was uncomfortable. Take it down a level and be professional.

The little voodoo doll tucked in an out-of-the-way spot will tell you all you need to know about the establishment: it's true, authentic and traditional New Orleans right down to the handmade doll.Owner Mike Cosse created the menu that features dishes right out of his native city of New Orleans which include po'boys, muffaletta, baked macaroni, turtle soup,stuffed crab and much more!
Had Sunday lunch with my wife. I wanted the BBQ shrimp, but they didn't have them so we ordered the sauteed crab claws and my wife ordered a cup of the bisque. The crab claws were good, but the bisque was bland. For entrees, I ordered the swamp platter (cute name btw) and my wife ordered the mullet poboy. The wife said that the mullet had almost no flavor. All of the food on my platter was fine, typical southern fried seafood. Nothing special, but not overly greasy as someone had said before. My red Solo cup of tea never got empty, just sorry that I can't remember our servers name. Overall would consider this average.
