Description:
The building Andy D's is in has been many different businesses over the last 10-15 years. All have failed. My prediction is that this one will as well. When we parked at Andy D's we thought the place would be packed, but there was almost no one in the building. Everyone must have been on Navarre Beach enjoying the beautiful white sands and emerald waters. Parking can be very limited on a nice day so you may need some patience to find a spot.
When you walk into Andy D's you get the feeling that this could be a fun spot. There was a pretty good size dining area, an inside bar and an outside bar. With clever sayings and signage it reeks of a fun beach bar. Unfortunately it stopped there. We went to the bar instead of a table (big mistake). Although the bartender was right there, he continued to do "tasks" instead of waiting on us. Why is it when places are not busy you get the worst service? Anyway, about 10 minutes of sitting there I was getting up to leave when he decided to come over. We ordered our usual Bacardi and Water. About 5 minutes later we received them in a tiny glass even though we ordered single tall.
I decided to look at a menu so I could get pictures of it for my review. Again, no bartender, so I went up to the hostess stand (no hostess), and picked up 2 of them. As I tried to read the menu, it was so worn out that it was barely legible, so I went back up to the hostess stand and looked at several of them. All were in pretty bad shape. (See pictures)
We were not very hungry, but Sheila wanted to try their Hushpuppies so we placed an order for a basket with remoulade sauce and a side of cocktail sauce. I'm not usually a fan of remoulade sauce, so I wanted the cocktail sauce as a backup. The hushpuppies came out pretty quick and was brought out by an expediter. They were a very disappointing basket of over fried cornbread balls. They did not have much flavor other than an old grease taste and probably came right out of a Sysco bag. As expected, I didn't like the remoulade sauce, but Sheila did. I never received the cocktail sauce I asked for and the bartender was once again MIA. When he finally showed up about 10 more minutes later, he apologized for being gone, because he had to get the outside bar set up/opened.
We did want a second drink, but we decide it was not worth the aggravation. So we paid our tab and left.
Bottom Line:
Andy D's is a "Beach Bar" with no view. The service for us was atrocious and the food bad. We do NOT recommend Andy D's
