Had a pretty long wait but it's worth it. The food never disappoints. I highly recommend the ribs or the blackened mahi mahi.

Be sure not to miss this place if you come to Panama city beach. Their food and service are amazing.

- Brian Clark

This is one of those "must-visit" places in Panama. The food is amazing, the staff is so very nice, cheerful and helpful! Their daiquiris are amazing and children ARE allowed inside the bar area if you want a drank but have the littles with you! I recommend Pineapple Willys to anyone asking!

- Taylor Burdine

Grilled chicken was so dry. Most of the food was cold when it came out. Over rated honestly.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) Pineapple Willy's was one of the highlights of our trip to Panama City Beach and absolutely lived up to its reputation. The location is incredible, sitting right on the beach with amazing views of the Gulf. Whether you're stopping in for lunch, dinner, or drinks while watching the sunset, it's hard to find a better atmosphere anywhere on the beach. The food was outstanding. Everything our group ordered was fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. From the seafood to the burgers and appetizers, everyone found something they loved. The famous BBQ ribs definitely deserve the hype—they were tender, full of flavor, and fell right off the bone. The drinks were also excellent and made for the perfect complement to a relaxing meal by the water. Even though the restaurant was very busy, our server was fantastic. They were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The food came out surprisingly quickly considering how packed the restaurant was, and the entire staff seemed to work together to keep things running smoothly. The only part of our visit that wasn't great was our interaction with the young woman at the check-in stand. She came across as unhappy and unfriendly, and unfortunately wasn't very welcoming when we arrived. First impressions matter, and that was the one part of the experience that didn't match the outstanding service we received from everyone else. Thankfully, once we were seated, the rest of the staff completely turned things around and made us feel appreciated. Overall, Pineapple Willy's delivered exactly what you're looking for in a beachfront restaurant—delicious food, excellent service, beautiful views, and a fun, laid-back Florida atmosphere. It's easy to see why it's such a popular destination for both locals and visitors. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will definitely make it one of our first stops the next time we're in Panama City Beach. Highly recommended!
