Frommer's Highly Recommended

A sprawling 26,000-square-foot complex, Fudpucker's is a beachside burger-and-beer joint with a twist -- or, rather, many twists. For one, there's also a sushi bar. The decor is funky, with antique beer cans, mirrors, and what they call "Fud Junk." The Fudburger is the menu's most popular, but an unabridged selection of everything from fried crab to Puckeroni Pizza is available for the taking. Eight different dining rooms, a playground, and game rooms are nothing compared to Fudpucker's Gator Beach, the restaurant's very own alligator collection in the pond underneath the building. Live music and a new addition, Club Key West, make this place one of the area's most popular nightspots. Fudpucker's on the Island, 108 Santa Rosa Blvd., Fort Walton Beach (tel. 850/243-3833), is the original, located on Okaloosa Island.
