Old Florida waterfront grill with great views, fast counter service, solid burgers and fried seafood; pricing leans touristy and quality varies, but the setting is the star.
Our take
New Pass Grill delivers solid casual dining anchored by exceptional waterfront setting with bay views and wildlife and reliable burger and fry execution. However, inconsistent seafood fry quality and modest service consistency prevent a higher grade. Best suited for quick post-beach meals where the view and speed matter more than refined dining.
One caveat: Fried seafood quality varies; occasional complaints about oil and heavy batter
