Thread: where the locals eat?

Not a local, but when we stayed near OB Marina last month, our hosts took us to Fisher's at OBM. They have a Dockside (lower level, casual) and an upstairs (fancy and spendy). The food was excellent in both spots with several of our party trying different entrees. The swordfish dinner (upstairs) was one of the best dishes I've ever had. http://fishersobm.com/. Chef is a James Beard nominee (if you are into any of that)

We don't really go to OB/GS area often, we go to Pensacola more often than not, but...there is a Brazilian Steakhouse, called Oxente just south of the Outlet Mall, on the east side of 59, the menu is not really large but everything is prepared wonderfully. Its about $12.00 per person and is money well spent, try it for a wonderful change of pace.

At least one visit to Original Point is a must for us every trip. Very casual, kid friendly, house bluegrass band most times, and most importantly excellent seafood fare.
