$7.50 for a kid's meal, plus $1.50 for a 'Kid's Drink'?. Yes, they are listed separately on the menu. In other words, a drink is not included in the price of your child's over-priced meal. Outrageous. The prices are high, the portions are fine, and the food is very, very mediocre. more

We loved this restaurant from the first time we ate there. The value was great for the amount of food. If there is a downside, there was too much food! When we returned the next year, unfortunately the place had burned, so we waited two years to go back. The restaurant is new, but the food is as great as... more

On a recent vacation, sampled several area restaurants and BB was our favorite. We loved the casual atmosphere and the excellent food. Our party of nine sampled everything from blackened alligator to fried shrimp to grouper orleans and a little bit of everything in between. We arrived early to beat the evening rush (5:30 'ish) and the service was great.... more

We ate at Bayou Bill's in Santa Rosa Beach last week and it was the best around. There was 8 of us. We had a short wait and enjoyed the atmosphere of the bar. I ate the paradise shrimp appetizer and it was a 10. My wife had the snow crabs and she said it was the best she ever... more

we tryed the special of the house its the biggest bucket I,ve seen. It has oysters,clams,mussels,shrimp,crabs,steamed potatos and corn very fillig enough to share. Kids meals very good portions and you get a bucket and shovel for the beach. We noticed the bayou platter for two that was the largest seafood platter I think four people could eat off it.... more

Had dinner at BB's last night, love the new building and parking lot! Started with gumbo and oysters Rock, both very good.

Bro had yellowfin tuna and he loved it-I'm... more

We ate at the old place four years ago when we were staying on Okaloosa Island and exploring 30-A one afternoon. The food was good and the pricing was fair. We had blue crab claws as an appetizer and we both had fried gulf shrimp. It was good enough that we remembered it and hunted it down this time when... more
