Bay Cafe French - Fort Walton Beach

After seeing some negative reviews about Bay Cafe, it’s clear that the restaurant has faced service challenges, but honestly, every restaurant has its ups and downs at times—no place is perfect. So, what’s the solution? I recommend making reservations at Bay Cafe for an outstanding lunch or dinner. Don’t be surprised if the service is professional and the kitchen lives up to the chef's reputation. You can trust that you’ll receive fresh, quality ingredients, a selection of fine wines, all backed by over 30 years of stellar reputation. You will absolutely love this charming French bistro with its fantastic appetizers (try the Escargot en Croute), mouthwatering entrees that feature fresh fish options like salmon, snapper, and grouper, and beautifully crafted desserts (the Blueberry Tart is a must). You will definitely want to return to Bay Cafe. What a hidden gem!
