March 20: Gov. Ron DeSantis issued an executive order Friday closing all restaurant dining areas in the state of Florida to help contain the spread of coronavirus.
Restaurants will still be allowed to do takeout orders and also will be allowed to sell alcohol for takeout or delivery with a food order.
The executive order is effective immediately and expires whenever the current state of emergency - which DeSantis declared on March 9 - ends.
Local restaurants are making decisions and already implementing curbside pickup services and/or delivery. At the same time, many restaurants are closing until further notice.
This thread will provide an updated LIST of restaurants temporarily closed in the area.
If you have information about closed restaurants please add here.
Restaurants that are OPEN will be announced in SoWal Dining Forum individually with details on menus and services.

It appears social distancing is going to be rolled back in one week, ending the madness. Hopefully some of these good people's jobs and livelihoods can be salvaged.

Temporarily closed
We are brainstorming ideas of how we can continue to provide dining options throughout our community. Currently, our sister restaurant, Back Beach Barbecue is delivering within a 5 mile radius in Panama City Beach. We are extending that radius to deliver further west up to Inlet & Rosemary Beach. There will be a $5 delivery charge which 100% of that fee will go directly to our employees at Restaurant Paradis. We hope this is something that our loyal friends and patrons will benefit from as well as our staff . Call today 850-249-0822

We must discontinue delivery and carryout service from our restaurant.
Together we must flatten the curve of communal spread.
Closing the restaurant is an extremely difficult decision. We see little choice.
We believe this is the right measure for the health and safety of our customers and team members.
Thank you for your understanding.
God bless us all. Be safe.
