Celebrate Like a Local At Lulu’s Destin
LuLu’s Destin is a lively, family-friendly waterfront restaurant known for its laid-back coastal vibe, fresh Gulf Coast flavors, and frequent live music. Conveniently located near the Mid-Bay Bridge, this popular spot was founded by Lucy Buffett—sister of legendary musician Jimmy Buffett—and offers a menu full of seafood favorites and Southern-inspired dishes, perfect for every taste.
Celebrating 10 years on the Emerald Coast, LuLu’s recently celebrated a "Decade in Destin" anniversary on June 14 with cake and live music. Since opening in 2015, LuLu’s Destin has become a beloved local favorite, expanding from its original Gulf Shores location to include North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and Destin. Lucy Buffett’s vision has always been to create a warm, welcoming space for families, where great food, entertainment, and Southern hospitality come together.
Signature dishes like Gulf Shrimp & Blue Crab Gumbo, Shrimp & Grits, and the Famous Fish Sandwich offer a true taste of the coast, while guests also rave about the award-winning Fried Green Tomatoes and Smoked Tuna Dip. Whether playing on the sandy beach area, enjoying yard games, or exploring the indoor arcade, LuLu’s is the perfect spot for families and fun-loving diners of all ages.
For those who like to go there and "get the t-shirt", you'll love the gift shop filled with fun gifts and LuLu's "Crazy Sista" branded merchandise.
