**Full Disclosure: While #EmeraldCoasting during Brandcation, I ate at LuLu’s Destin at no cost to me. All experiences and opinions are my own.
I adore good food. Recently I came across a food passport on Pinterest and I am itching to make one for all the great restaurants I find. LuLu’s Destin will definitely be in my food passport because the food was delicious and the view was amazing!
LuLu’s is a huge, open building with seating indoors and outside. It’d have to be in order to serve over 4,000 people a day during the summer season! The restaurant is positioned right on the water with a beautiful view of the Intracoastal Waterway. I couldn’t stop staring out at the white sand and enticing water. LuLu’s opens daily at 10:30 a.m. and is only closed Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day & New Years Day.
LuLu’s has games on the sand for kids of all ages – the Fountain for Youth, Corn Hole and Hula Hoops. They also have live music almost nightly.
There are so many delicious options on the menu – fish, burgers, sandwiches and more. They have a special allergy menu for those that need dairy free, egg free, soy free, gluten free, shellfish free or seafood free.
Because I was there with a group of bloggers, there was plenty of food at our table, including the Smoked Tuna Dip and Fried Green Tomatoes. I’m not a fan of seafood so I only tried the tomatoes. I don’t love tomatoes, so they weren’t my favorite but they had a fantastic coating. I ordered a Crazy Sista’s Burger for my entree and it was phenomenal! They burger had the perfect amount of seasoning and it was cooked to my liking. I was really blown away by the bun, though – I’ve never had one nearly as good!
Like I said before, I don’t eat seafood, so it doesn’t really matter to me how fresh it is or where it came from. However, LuLu’s participates in Fish Trax which is a program that allows you to get more information (where, when, what boat, and more) about your meal via a QR code. Neat, huh?!
What would you eat off LuLu’s menu?
LuLu’s is located at 4607 Legendary Marina Drive Destin, FL 32541.
Look at all that amazing food. This kind of restaurant is right up my alley! If I ever make it down there, I know where I want to eat!
Oh my Lord! Those Fried Green Tomatoes are calling my name! Looks like a super fun and yummy place to get fortified! Will def have to check it out if I’m ever in the area!
Yum, yum, yum! I absolutely love fried green tomatoes and their allergy menu makes eating with food restrictions so much easier than hunting through a regular menu, trying to find something that is compliant.
Ooh, that looks yummy! I love fried green tomatoes.
Do you remember that movie Fried Green Tomatoes? I always think of that when I see them on a menu. I still haven’t tried them, but I’d love to.
This would be such a fun place to eat. I love that atmosphere and the food looks good!
The atmosphere was amazing!!
The smoked tuna dip would be first on my list. I love that I won’t run into NUTS if I choose from there allergy free menu.
Looks like a great restaurant. I love those fried green tomatoes!
This makes me want to hop in the car and head to Florida, I haven’t been to Destin since I was a teen. That tuna dip looks amazing.
We always go to Destin for Thanksgiving, so many great places to visit there.
