When Kenny Griner was a young boy, he learned to throw a cast net and soon developed a love for all things Seafood.
He opened Chet's Restaurant in Pensacola 25 years ago but made the decision to go smaller with his latest venture, Grayton Seafood Co. (GSC). Nestled in the shops of Uptown Grayton, his pride and joy has quickly taken on the reputation as the place to go for the freshest in seafood offerings.

Once upon a time way back during the last century, destiny led Oliver Petit to the site of the Red Bar in the year 1990.
A cook by trade, Oli took a job at the building when it was the Bay Café, not knowing that it would become the place where legends never die. He traveled all the way from the faraway town of Fort Walton Beach - back when there were few signs of life between Destin and Grayton.
“When I got here I almost turned around,” Oli exclaimed.
