Salty Sue's: A Sports Bar and BBQ Gem in Panama City Beach, FL

First time in Panama City Beach. Decided to try this local favorite and I wasn't disappointed. Great atmosphere, delicious food, and an amazing team (shout-out to Samantha and Pat, the owner I believe). Samantha recommended the grouper and cheese grits and Pat recommended the smokey wings and ...I love spicy food that you can actually still taste. If you are ever in the area, stop by for a spell.

I had the Shrimp Christo and steamed broccoli on the side w/ a roll was filling and delicious, he had the BBQ sampler with smoked turkey, beef brisket & pulled pork. BBQ sauce was delicious the beans were very good and coleslaw was so-so, hush puppies were good also. Would definitely come back to try something else in the future.

Man, this lil spot was right across the street from my hotel and I needed a good wholesome meal and found it here! I had the jerk chicken with cheese grits and baked beans. the food was excellent! best thing was my server Vera! she was the kindest lady and really made me feel quite comfortable being away from home and just needing a good meal. She was the best! Salty Sue's gets 4 hell yeah

We stopped by Salty Sue’s while in Panama City and had a great time. The food was solid, fresh, and flavorful. The service was friendly and quick. The magician performing tableside was an unexpected highlight, adding a fun touch to the night. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Food was Amazing! Atmosphere was peaceful! I recommend this place if you want a spacious place that you aren't bumping elbows with people and you can enjoy the food and have a good waitress! This is it. Yummy! No wonder it's rated 4.5

Love it here!! We went for happy hour. My bloody mary was $9 and DELICIOUS. I took the photo after I ate the olive. My husband's beer was $2.50. We split the jerk chicken. It came with two sides and hush puppies. We got the cheesy grits and mac & cheese. Both were incredible. The chicken was packed with flavor and had the perfect amount of heat. The atmosphere is even better than the food. Our server was incredible and all the staff seemed friendly and like the truly enjoyed their job. We can't wait to go back!

6 stars: Presidential Service 5 stars: Top Notch Service 4 stars: It was straight 3 stars: Ok 2 stars: 1 star: I need to bypass the manager and speak to the owner Salty Sues That fresh-off-the-pit aroma Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Customer Service Attendant: Mrs. Vera What truly sealed the experience was the service. Mrs. Vera delivered hospitality the old-school way. She made sure my sweet tea stayed fresh before the ice had a chance to melt, moving with the attentiveness and warmth that felt just like being at grandma’s house. It wasn’t rushed or scripted; it was genuine. Offerings Wings ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Both versions stood out. The jerk smoked wings brought bold flavor with a subtle heat, while the honey BBQ smoked wings balanced sweet and smoky flavors beautifully. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The brisket and turkey delivered exactly what that smell promised: rich, smoky, and cooked with patience. The meats were flavorful!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The hush puppies were sweet with a perfect crunch on the outside, soft and comforting inside. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The fried okra was crisp and clean. Final Thoughts: Salty Sue’s is more than a barbecue stop; it’s an experience rooted in flavor, comfort, and soul. From pit-smoked meats to service that makes you feel like family.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Salty Sue’s – Panama City, FL Salty Sue’s absolutely lived up to the hype! I ordered the club sandwich and it was exactly as advertised — the biggest club sandwich I’ve ever seen. No exaggeration, I had to take half of it home because it was so massive. The steak fries that came with it were delicious and perfectly cooked. My girlfriend and her dad both ordered the Jamaican jerk chicken, and it was fantastic — really great smoky flavor and seasoned just right. My girlfriend also had a margarita and loved it. Great food, generous portions, and solid drinks. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in Panama City.
