Dharma Blue

Dharma Blue serves seafood and sushi in a historic early-1900s home just off the beaten path of downtown Pensacola. The menu centers on fresh local catch, with dishes like seared crab cakes, shrimp and grits, and corn flour fried oysters. Sushi rolls are hand-rolled to order, and the bar mixes craft cocktails. Weekend brunch adds Chicken & Waffles and Crab Cake Benedict.

Dinner runs Sunday through Thursday evenings and stays open later on Friday and Saturday, with brunch on Sunday late morning into early afternoon. The fresh catch changes daily and availability varies, so it helps to call ahead for a specific fish. Eclectic art covers the walls, and the long-serving team keeps a homey feel that brings regulars back. The restaurant also rents a private room.
