Royal Palm Grille

Royal Palm in Destin

If you’re hungry and thirsty, day or night, welcome to Royal Palm Grille. In what could be called Scenic 98’s (Old Hwy. 98) hidden gem in Miramar Beach, FL, you’ll not go wrong at this versatile eatery where there’s good eats, good times and thirst-quenching drinks – a little bit of everything for everyone! Nestled inside Surfside resort with a majestic view, Royal Palm Grille Destin is a restaurant and bar featuring seafood, sushi, burgers and more.

Restaurant & Sushi

Royal Palm Sushi

Located on the first level, the restaurant’s main dining room has an unobstructed view overlooking the Gulf and a new outdoor deck. Here it’s come as you are and experience the incredible scenery, world class cuisine, and top-notch service for a price you won’t believe. Bring the whole family for casual family dining at its finest or enjoy a romantic dinner in the dining room with full view of the beach and emerald blue waters of the Gulf. Inside the restaurant is a full bar and the pool bar right outside is also open to restaurant guests. You can even watch football and other sports in the full-service bar with lots of TV’s tuned to your game!

The Royal Palm Grille menu won’t disappoint with items such as sushi, seafood, burgers, pasta, chicken and more! Some of our personal recommendations include the Fish Tacos — a popular local favorite. And every Wednesday is Sushi night, where you can eat lavishly with $3 off Signature sushi rolls from 5 p.m. until close. After trying the Royal Palm Roll and Raider Roll, it’s easy to see why the Sushi chef is award-winning and the chef has won Best in Destin multiple years.

The Beach Bar

Royal Palm View

Enjoy your lunch at the pool side Tiki bar or become a sucker for a sunset from the fun, easily accessible beach bar nestled quietly in between Whale’s Tail and Surf Hut and perched high enough to catch all the breathtaking scenery along the beach. The beach bar, located right across the street from the restaurant, is a full bar and a magnet for beach-goers as it is directly on the sugar, white sand of Miramar Beach and serves popular drinks such as frozen Piña Coladas and Rum Runners. Filled in plastic cups, you can even take yours on the beach if you like! The main level has a full-service bar serving up frozen cocktails, cold beer, fountain drinks and water. You can also order food from the kitchen, making it an all-in-one stop. And, they welcome your pets!

Beach Bonfires

If you’re looking for a family friendly activity, the beach bar hosts a free beach bonfire every Friday night, right on the sand! Chairs are provided on a first come, first service basis with cocktails, s’mores and food available to purchase. The bonfire begins at sunset; so, get there early to grab a drink and a seat. And keep in mind that no outside food or beverages are allowed, but kids and pets are welcome. It’s very laid back at this iconic beach bar and the atmosphere is the best you can have, because everybody’s in a good mood on the beach!
