Hook'd Pier Grill - Panama City Beach

I HATE leaving bad reviews. But this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in PCB. The hosts and wait staff acted like we were an inconvenience to them. They were kinda stand-offish and rude. I had a chicken sandwich and it was an EXTREMELY dry and thin piece of meat that was about half the size of the bun. Also, when the waiter asked what I wanted on it, he was barely paying attention so it came out wrong. Then when I politely asked for the rest of the fixings for the sandwich it took forever and I was basically done with the sandwich at that point. My girlfriend had a hamburger and said it was extremely dry as well. The environment isn't as good as I thought it would be for a beach restaurant. The only thing this place seemed to have going for them was their fried pickles.

Last meal before a plane ride out of town. Ordered shrimp baskets a crab cake. The crab cake was absolutely delightful the sauce that came with it was heavenly. The shrimp was perfectly breaded and fried. The fries had a lovely light breading and well fried. We're good crunchy even cold hours later. The only hiccup was some of the hush puppies were over fried a bit too dark for our liking. Once showing our server she promptly went and got us new ones that were not over cooked. The hush puppies were very delicious. Will for sure be back on our next trip.

Stopped in for lunch before checking in to our condo. We got there when the place opened. We were seated outside quickly. Server immediately came by asking for our drink order and if were ready to order, we just sat down. He brought our drinks quickly and took our order. We ordered and food came out quick. I had the Blackened Grouper tacos with chips and salsa, they were okay, a little mushy. My wife had the Shrimp Tacos with slaw, again just okay. Our server never came by, until he brought the check. We needed some silverware Food was priced in line with most other places. Overall, it was just okay! Really wanted it to be awesome and it wasn't! We felt like we were being rushed from walking in. And paper straws, oh how I loathe them.

Local here. Never had tried this place until today we were really impressed with the drinks and the food! Quality of food and prices were great. I believe we spent about 45 bucks for a nice lunch with a great view on the beach by the pier and enjoyed 2 good drinks along with our meal! Definitely will be coming back. Very peaceful and relaxing lunch!

We had friends come in from out of town and decided to stay on the beach. After walking the pier and browsing reviews, we decided to give Hook'd a shot. The entrance was a little confusing and cluttered most people were trying to get in line for the pineapple drinks, and that caused some congestion for getting a table. Once we were seated our server was really friendly and helpful because we had never ordered them before, we all got a mixed drink in a pineapple (heads up, the pineapple adds $7 to whatever drink you get) I'm not sure what others ordered to get fruit added on top, but ours didn't really have extra fruit on it. Oh well, the mermaid water and the punch were really tasty sweet, but a nice drink for a vacation afternoon. My husband and I ordered the inferno wings, and grouper sandwiches (one fried, one blackened) with fries. The fish and fries were great fish was fresh and the fries seemed to be double fried and soft on the inside. Our friends got tacos, which they enjoyed as well. It was on the expensive side, but it was fresh, tasty, and the service was good more than I expected in a very touristy spot! Would certainly go again for those wings and fish.
