We tried sky pizza and the pizza was very good. Incredible crust. Not as nice of atmosphere as New York Deli, but the pizza was very good as it appears folks in Pensacola have two civilized places to get pizza.

I will probably try to bring one down in early march. My daughter is bringing the grandkids and husband down for spring break on Navarre beach end of March, but I will have to drive up by myself, get my shot, turn around, get right back down to see the grandkids. I am piszed at my son and daughter in law as they chose a cruise and will not be bringing the boys down. They do not like driving and drinking and the cruise allows them to kick back with the kids, drink and walk to their rooms. I just do not think I am going to have another spring break with them and would have enjoyed the beach with them.

Only been there once as we found the food mediocre and the place was a jammed tourist trap. It must have improved over the years and we will try it in March. We had friends who swore by the place, and when we went with them it was like going to the dentist waiting for a table and excruciating slow service with my wife and I not having very good burgers. Whataburgers were tenfold better, but I will try a steak there instead of a burger.

Sidelines' burger is one of our top favorites,too, and is just like a perfectly cooked, thick (half pound) and moist back yard burger from home.
McGuire's burger consistently wins "best of" awards around here, but it's not a traditional hamburger, so that may've been what was off-putting to Sea. It's billed as a steakburger and that's exactly what it is -- ground steak on a bun. Obscenely large and very flavorful, if you like a char-grilled steak taste.
In fact, we treated ourselves to the steakburger yesterday afternoon after taking departing guests to the airport, hoping the beach-bound traffic would clear before we headed home. It didn't; in fact, traffic was much worse at 3 p.m. than it had been at 1:30. Bumper-to-bumper all the way across the Three Mile and creeping & crawling onto the beach. Even taking the 'back' way in Gulf Breeze it was still an hour trip. Portent of things to come. Ugh.

Makes me homesick . . .
