The Best Seat in Town
Make yourself at home, in true laid-back Florida style. Pick your favorite table or couch to sit back and enjoy 180-degree water views, grab cocktails from the bar, and let your server show you the southern hospitality that Destin is known for. And don’t be misled by the casual setting, the food here is taken seriously.
Award-Winning Views
With unmatched waterfront views of the historic Destin Harbor, come see why The Edge has become a locals’ favorite, voted ‘Best Outdoor Dining’ and ‘Best Place to Have Cocktails’ in the coveted 2023/2024 Best in Destin awards AND ‘Best New Restaurant’ and ‘Best Atmosphere’ in the 2023 Best of the Emerald Coast awards.
Happy Hour & Live Music
Skybar is the adults-only harborside rooftop bar located directly above the seafood restaurant. Open daily starting at 11am, Skybar features nightly Happy Hour specials on signature cocktails and small plates from 4-6pm and live music every night and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Did we mention the view?
What’s in a name?
As descendants of Destin fisherman, the owners drew their inspiration for the seafood restaurant’s name from Destin waters themselves, or rather from what lies beneath them. Named for the popular fishing spot where the continental shelf drops off just a few miles off the coast of Destin, The Edge focuses on fresh local seafood and supporting our local fisheries. Bring your fresh catch in after a day on the water and let us cook it up for you family-style, or try one of the signature seafood dishes offered on our menu.
THE SKYBAR
Set high over the water, our adults-only harborside rooftop bar offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Destin Harbor, East Pass, and Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy our signature cocktails and sample food from our full menu while breathing in the salt air and enjoying the sea breeze. Come early if you want to watch the sunset from the couches; that is an experience all on its own! After sunset, the festivities continue when we light up the fire pit on the upper deck and turn on the underwater lights below while some of the best musicians on the Gulf Coast play live music.
The atmosphere at The Edge is as special as our food
The main dining level of the restaurant offers plenty of seating right in the heart of the action on the edge of the Destin Harbor Boardwalk, with excellent opportunities for both sightseeing and people watching all day long. Unlike most “waterfront” restaurants, The Edge was built directly on top of the water, providing covered outdoor seating with panoramic waterfront views from every seat in the house. Don’t be surprised to see dolphins playing next to your chair, boats pulling up by your table, or children feeding the fish off the docks.
