Nolita’s Parlor & Eatery — Restaurant in Pensacola

Officially, this place is 3.5 stars. The staff is very friendly. I got the Classic Chicken Sandwich with secret sauce, and the breading, size of the chicken breast, and the spices were perfect. The secret sauce added something special to a chicken sandwich that can stand on its own. I would have had thicker pickle coins to get a stronger contrast, but still a strong chicken sandwich priced very reasonably at $10.75. I would think they would do very well with smashburgers. I also got a small twist soft serve with pistachio Gamache, priced around $5-$6 depending on if you do toppings. I think the toppings enhance the experience. However, this restaurant is weirdly structured where you order inside and get drinks and soft serve inside, but other food is cooked and picked up at the food truck outside. But their biggest obstacle is success is the limited hours they keep. The chicken sandwich is only available from 11 am - 2 pm on Friday and Saturday. The smashburgers are only available at 4 pm - 8 pm or 9 pm on weekdays from what I remember. I initially did not want to try their food because they looked like a shop that wanted to be a restaurant concept. I think it's a shame they won't find more success because of their strategy of employing scarcity to make their product appear more desirable. They should just be a place that serves chicken sandwiches, smashburgers,...

This place has everything you want a local business to have: Super friendly owners & staff - when I walk in I always feel welcome. Amazing food - best smash burgers, fries, dipping sauces, chicken tenders/sandwiches, and soft serve in town! The chicken is perfectly crisp and not greasy. Also don’t sleep on the cookies (everything home made of course). Another thing I love about this place are the various veggie additions available- like the mango slaw as a side- SO GOOD!! Their wedge salad is freaking delicious too, and their Caesar! The soft serve menu has some tasty customizations too- tiramisu, peanut butter brownie, pistachio ganache, strawberry hibiscus glaze shortcake, etc. but my FAVORITE combo is the vanilla soft serve topped with salsa macha, potato sticks, and chocolate magic shell. Don’t sleep on trying it you will be in heaven. The vibes are great - beautiful murals, funky decor, and cozy vibes surround this place. I love to go hang by myself on a lunch break since I work from home, or stop by for after school treats with my family. They have good drinks! - tasty gourmet sodas (including some local offerings like Big Jerk!), beer, wine, and even Louie Louie!

Thanks MISU/Nolita’s for leveling up the food game and creativity in our community!...

Picture it: the day after the 4th of July, hot and bothered, I search the streets of downtown Pensacola looking for relief. All of sudden, like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, I see 👀 an ice cream oasis called Nolitas... I stumble hungrily through the door, and a brown skinned vision offers me hope in a cup. Hope called The Dubai Sundae! I hear the angels sing as I devour the goodness offered to me! My temperature starts to decrease, and the light returns to my eyes as I ingest the delicious concoction. I am saved! And you to will be saved and damn happy once you order any sweet treats or even a savory one like a burger or any other delicious selection from the Mi Su Street food menu. The best of both worlds, located under one roof! What are you waiting for?...
