Four Pensacola restaurants have been awarded the coveted Golden Spoon Award, an honor created by Florida Trend magazine 40 years ago to recognize the state’s best places to dine. Two of them were also named to the Golden Spoon Hall of Fame, an elite list reserved for restaurants that have earned repeated Golden Spoons. Pensacola led all of northwest Florida in the number of awards received in a market. Jackson’s Steakhouse, McGuire’s, Global Grill and new entrant Restaurant IRON each received a Golden Spoon Award. McGuire’s and Jackson’s were also named to the Golden Spoon Hall of Fame—a repeat performance for each. Florida Trend’s Golden Spoons are awarded annually to just 100 or so of the thousands of restaurants in Florida, recognizing individual achievement and distinctive contributions to the Florida restaurant scene. “This is a prestigious recognition for the entire Pensacola Bay area,” said Collier Merrill, co-owner of Jackson’s in downtown Pensacola. “We look forward to continuing the tradition of great food and service in the heart of historic Downtown Pensacola." The annual Golden Spoon winners appear in a 15-page special section in the December issue of Florida Trend magazine.
