MIRAMAR BEACH, Fla. – Founded in 2001 by owners, Wayne Lewis and Tom Rice, Marlin Grill has long been noted for their culinary talents and award-winning wine list for the past 20 years.

The locally owned and operated restaurant has been fondly recognized as the Best Place for a Date, Best Martini, and Best Romantic/Special Occasion Restaurant by the readers of Emerald Coast Magazine. They pride themselves on serving the freshest ingredients, including Gulf-fresh seafood, prime dry-aged steaks, house made sauces, and family-style side dishes.

“These special recipes and our tried-and-true classic dishes are the essence of Marlin Grill,” Rice said.

“We try to provide everyone who sits in our dining room or on our patio the true authentic experience of the Emerald Coast by serving fresh, local ingredients that make a lasting impression on the plate.”
