Frommer’s Review
Jimmy Buffett tunes set the tone at this fun, Tiki-topped establishment on the picturesque Destin Harbor docks, where fishing boats unload their daily catches right into the kitchen. The best items here are grilled or fried fish, but raw or steamed Apalachicola oysters also headline the menu. You can sample a bit of everything with a “run of the kitchen” seafood platter. AJ’s is most famous for its topside bar, Club Bimini, open nightly and featuring live bands (you should have dinner elsewhere if you’re not in a partying mood). At lunch, picnic tables on the covered dock make a fine place to eat with a view across the harbor. Locals love this place and you will, too.
