Breath of fresh air for a small town such as Pensacola. Took my parents here for mothers day after not getting a reservation at a restaurant that pops up first on urban spoon and yelp. I am very happy to say that by not getting the reservation I found Type. I will make this a stop everytime I travel home for visits. Had the 5 course tasting and everything was perfcet. The Amberjack was the best I have had. I will recommend this to people where ever I travel. Blake Rushing has done a wonderful job as has the rest of his staff. Very memorable indeed.

Service could be better, as I sat at the bar and then asked if I could order a drink. But I amend my previous review. The food was absolutely delicious here last night, as well as the leftovers were amazing only 3 drunken hours later, upon crawling into bed. All in all, I'm glad I gave it another shot!

Very good stop on my visit to Pensacola. We stopped in for some small plates which included fois gras and risotto fritters, a strawberry pocket pie with cardamom gelato, and a panna cotta. Rose to drink. Attractive calm atmosphere, welcoming service, imaginative and savory dishes. Thanks Chef!

I've been to Type on several occasions and really enjoyed what they had going on. I am a bit of a freak for lamb and was delighted at the sous-vide version they were serving at the time. The only reason I don't go more often is the pricing, and that's my fault for being too poor. The value was there, the sommelier was deadly accurate with his suggestions and the dessert was exceptional. Real southern food with a ultra-modern twist.

This is one of those Pensacola gems. The restaurant is very warm and welcoming, and it feels like you are sitting at a family table. Our server was attentive, yet not hovering. She was truly excited about the different dishes and described the ingredients and preparation for each. The dishes are changed every few weeks with seasonal items and a few "staples" that will stay on the menu. We have eaten here multiple times and I think each meal is better than the last. Everything is house made from the pasta to the sauces and the desserts. Even the ice cream with the desserts are created here. Our food was seasoned perfectly allowing each of the herbs and spices to combine perfectly. The prices are typical of a fine dining establishment and you will not leave hungry. Chef Blake is always around greeting guests and helping with presentation and he is always more than happy to talk about his dishes.

Why did I have to scroll so far down the list to find this place? Best food in pcola! The lamb neck sounded terrifying enough to order. It was amazing. It literally fell off the bone but was somehow crispy too. Great atmosphere, great service, 10/10.

Not really sure how to feel about this place. So I'll start with a few things... Ambiance: This place has great ambiance. It comes across as very high-end on the outside, but when you walk in, you see that it's more casual than expected. Environment: Ambiance aside, the physical environment is nice, but the most disturbing part is that there is a microwave in plain view. This may not be an issue for some people, but when you're paying $30-$40 per entree, it feels really out-of-place and makes you question the quality of the food being served. Wait Staff: The wait staff seemed knowledgeable on the dishes, however, I felt that our waiter went into too much detail explaining everything on our plates. This may not have been the wait staff's fault, but the most disappointing thing during our visit was that the waiter informed us that they are experiencing brown water issues and could not offer us tap water. Instead, bottled spring and sparkling water were available for a fee. Upon hearing this, we began to analyze everything at our table: the ice, the food, everything. I feel this was particularly a missed opportunity to provide exceptional service here. Instead of forcing customers to pay for bottled water, they should have offered complimentary water. Food: I ordered the duck, which was not that impressive. The consistency was reminiscent of mashed potatoes and the sauce, underwhelming. Presentation: Overall, good, but not impressive. All of the dishes we ordered came out plain, no decorative garnishes, no colorful bouquet of sauces or vegetables. Very simple. Price: I didn't pay for this meal, but at $30-40 an entree, I kind of expect more from a restaurant in regards to the brown water issue, the visible microwave and the dish rags as table napkins. Overall, not an impressive experience for the price. I expected more and got much less.

The time has come for me to publicly declare my love for this chef and his restaurant. In case you don't know, dear reviewer, I am broken. I have food sensitivities galore, biggest ones being gluten, dairy, soy, and canola. This man can not only cook for me, HE COOKS FOR ME. I'm a foodie. I'm from Miami, and I've eaten at amazing places all over the U.S. and Europe. I love food! It just doesn't love me back. So when I show up (usually with a reservation so he's prepared) they already know how to tweak what I'm ordering. I just realized most of the pictures I'd taken of the dishes were on a phone that died so I feel bad I can't visually share these creations with you. Enough about me, the food. THE FOOD. THE FOOD IS BRILLIANT! My companion and I spiritually ascend when we eat there (wine may help with this). From something as simple as onion jam (which we put on EVERYTHING with that one meal it was so good), to house cured salami and rabbit sausage. The dish above was rabbit three-ways. He introduced me to vanilla poached baby fennel. I saved it and munched on it for daaaaays. I loved the pickled green strawberries. Who else would put sweet corn in a dessert and make it work? He did!!! Everything is simple in preparation (even if it takes weeks) yet complex in flavour. Each item is cooked to display it's own character, with everything else being an interaction between flavours. That's the adventure. You get to mix everything on your plate to figure which combinations you love. This is foodie heaven. If you're not prepared to savour every bite for an hour, you don't know how to appreciate good food. I'll say it again, I love this man, and his kitchen, I hope Pensacola knows what a treat it has in Type, because we are truly privileged to have this caliber of food here.

Was taken here as a surprise for my birthday. It was absolutely one of the best dining experiences we have ever had. Perfect low key atmosphere, a staff that is very knowledgeable and attentive that acts like a tour guide taking you through a taste adventure. The food will absolutely delight your senses with tastes, textures, smells and a presentation that is top notch. We were even trying food we normally do not like to eat and could not get over how good it was. The value was incredible as well as I have paid much more for meals but not gotten nearly as good of food or an experience for what I paid. The menu changes every two weeks, we definitely plan on becoming regulars now and look forward to the new items that are to come!

Disappointed and will not be returning. I had the amberjack which was such a thick piece that it was very rare on one end and dried out and over cooked on the other. All the veges were bland and covered in lots of oil. My sister had the duck which she said was good but the sides had way to many bold flavors going on and they did not blend well, same with my mom's drum dish. My husband had the Tuesday night burger special, they waitress informed him of what toppings he could add with out saying they would be extra, so a simple hamburger quickly became the most expensive plate when all the waitress had to tell him was they toppings were extra but failed to do. Overall seems like this restaurant is trying to hard, the dishes seem very lovely on the menu but the poor execution fails to blend them well. No one but my husband was able to finish their entrees because they just were not that good. Very disappointing to pay over $160 for 4 people who didn't even enjoy their meal. We all wanted to like this restaurant but sadly will not be returning.

we had a very enjoyable dinner at Type last night. the food was excellent. I had the lamb neck with vegetables and my dear friend had the pork shoulder. both were extremely good. we just ate the leftovers and enjoyed both meals again. The service was excellent as well. The atmosphere is nice. The wine we had was also good. the list was limited, but they were kind enough to let us try several wines until we found what we liked. We would return without hesitation.

Hands down the most romantic and gourmet meal we've had in Pensacola. Nothing else around town has the level of thought put into food pairings and how tastes compliment one another. The setting is beautiful and softly lit. We loved it
