Restaurant Iron

Highly recommended fine dining experience in the Pensacola area. From NYC with high standards for these types of restaurants, however, Restaurant Iron met those expectations in atmosphere and service, at least.

My wife and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary here and glad we did. The Anise Spiced Duck Breast was succulent and perfectly cooked with the most memorable black berry Foie Gras we have ever tried.

The wait stave was truly exceptional with attentive and friendly service with extensive knowledge of the menu and modifications available as required.

4 out of 5 for food as the Seafood Cioppino was a welcomed twist on the classic Italian stew however, was a little briny for my taste.
Lastly we were treated to seasonal cobbler for our anniversary however, the cobbler although presented beautifully, had an overwhelming nutty/gritty texture while the apples, although thinly sliced had a rather al dente texture verses and expected tenderness.

Wow, this restaurant exceeded my expectations . I had a Caesar salad to start & it wasn’t your typical Caesar salad. They put their own twist on it but it was still pretty good . I had the lamb chomps as the main entree and it was phenomenal. Well seasoned. I had the Nutella pie for dessert & to my surprise it was really good. The combo between Nutella, pretzels & caramel sauce was tasty. Overall great dine in experience. I only rated it 4 stars because my friend ordered the cobbler for dessert but it did not meet her expectations. We are not sure if that’s how cobbler is supposed to be made but it was watery almost like a soup with apple slices in it. That was the only downside of the dine in experience but I would go back to try another dish & dessert on the menu!

A restaurant that brings creativity to food presentation!🍽️

Restaurant Iron provides a unique dining experience to our area with its ambiance and menu—Southern Contemporary Cuisine!

Atmosphere: The space is long and rectangular with tables and a bar area for seating! There is a bit of an opening at the front of the kitchen where the bar is that gives that space a bit of an open concept.
Service: They were bustling with customers, but the waiters/waitresses were being efficient to provide a good dining experience for everyone.
Menu items: I got their White Truffle Fries and their PB&J appetizer that they had at the time—it was an acquired taste! For my main entree, I ordered their salmon with peas (also featured is my cousins’s dish) which is not currently being served as they seasonally rotate their menu items. The food was good overall! I just wish the portion sizes were a little larger for the entrees.

The experience here is fun and lively, and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the presentation of each dish!

One of our favorite spots in town and service is unmatched! We go more than we should probably admit… The soup never misses and everything we’ve tried from the current menu is fantastic as usual! Pictured is the soup of the day, beer battered fried green tomatoes, prime beef tartare, steak, and oysters. The fried oysters and wings are favorites. If you like a good cocktail, be sure to order a drink here!
