I decided to get the special which was blackened shrimp Alfredo 😍. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. It was amazing 😋. We went for lunch! We were seated right away. It's a casual place. Waitress was wonderful. Give this place a try!

Been wanting to go to The Place for some time. Last night was the night. Downtown Panama City has decided to totally rip up Harrison Street for beautification. It will be beautiful eventually but for now. Where to park???? Behind the building there is a parking lot and you can enter the back door via a stair case. No problem for our group One of the reasons I wanted to go to The Place is because their menu covers a plethora of cuisines. Burgers, Wings. Salads, Pizza, some Cajun and seafood choices. It’s a long narrow restaurant that is more sports bar towards the back and casual dining in the front. We liked the vibe and we felt welcomed. I went with a great friend and we did more talking and drinking and just grabbing bites. We highly recommend the zucchini fries. If y’all are a one app kind of people that order is huge. We couldn’t decide on the sauce we wanted so they brought us several. You can also get the zucchini fries as a side. I had read about the antipasto egg rolls and they had intrigued me. YUM! I’m one of the rare people that if not considered completely wrong I will eat dessert before my entree. And I don’t always order dessert but the chocolate dipped key lime pie… had me thinking Key West. And it was really good. I don’t often order Key lime pie because if I want key lime pie I will go to Winn Dixie and get the Mikes key lime pie. Save a few bucks It was all about the chocolate and key lime. So good. We did end up ordering the Cuban and splitting that. By the time we made that decision I was full and not into taking photos. Usually, I get the servers name but again I was off my game last night but I did get his photo when I was taking a photo of the overhead sign. He was wonderful and funny and engaging and perfect timing. I think we’re best friends now hahaha. The Cuban was good. Actually dang good. I may have had better at some time in my life but definitely better than some Mostly local clientele for you wanting to find somewhere the locals go. There were families eating, business people, sea captains and groups of girls or guys 10/10 will go again.

Great food, far exceeded our expectations, great prices and great atmosphere. Very busy with a local ukulele band playing for charity to promote and bring music lessons back to schools.

The service was excellent, and the lemon pepper wings and Nashville hot wings were delicious! We also had a side Greek salad before the wings that was very, very good. It was by random chance that we found this place, but 10 out of 10,...Read More

We frequent The Place. Great wings, great tater tots, I love the Ahi tuna BLT. It's a generous portion and high quality sushi grade tuna. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly people, sports bar setting.

For me, the worst part about their reuben is that I hadn't eaten it sooner. Seriously the best reuben I'd ever had hands down. Staff was really friendly too. I can't wait to come back.
