- VSVincenzoSIowa •3 reviews5.0Dined todayAfter doing our own research to find a classy restaurant with great food, we chose Bijoux. In every category, this was an exceptional eating experience. Connie, our head server, was outstanding - knowledgeable about the menu, personable and friendly, delivering everything to the table at exactly the right times. We have pretty high standards for cleanliness, creativity, service, freshness and overall ambiance. We would hightail recommend Bijoux.More infoBijouxPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Destin•4.9

- GGregoryNorthwest Florida •1 review5.0Dined on Mar 4, 2025It's great for a special night out. We have visited for past anniversaries and this time for my wife's birthday. Edie is a great waitress and remembered us from a prior visit years ago. My wife and I had different entries—both were excellent. Beet salad is a great starting point. Save room for the bread pudding (there was plenty to share). We ate around 5:30, so we had a great view of the Gulf's surf (it was a high wind that day, so turbulent).More infoBeach Walk CafePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Destin•4.6
- CChandlerVIPCleveland / Akron / Canton •44 reviews5.0Dined on Mar 4, 2025We liked Ovide so much on our first visit that, for the third time in our over 30 year marriage, we requested the same server (Liz!!) and the same wine on our return. The menu is in a state of transition and upgrade, so we had different entrees which were also as good as our previous. We highly recommend Ovide!More infoOvidePrice: Expensive• American• Miramar Beach•4.3
