Will be visiting friends in Tallahassee during July. I have never been to northern Florida and want to experience some great finds. We are also driving to Amelia Island for the weekend. Thanks !!!!!

Here are some places I recommend.
 
Oriental:
Lucy Ho's
 
Steaks:
Marie Livingston's
 
Seafood:
Locally? Forget it. Drive down south of Tallahassee to places like...
Spring Creek Restaurant south of Crawfordville between Panacea & St. Marks
Posey's Up The Creek Steamroom & Oyster Bar in Panacea, FL
Angelo & Son's in Panacea
Forgotten Coast Seafood Shack in Crawfordville
Italian:
Mom & Dad's on Apalachee Pkwy
 
French:
Chez Pierre
 
Cajun/Creole:
Koosh's Bayou Rouge
 
German:
Nino's
 
Those are the ones I have dined in and enjoyed.

Definitely Chez Pierre and definitely Mom & Dad's.

You left out Food Glorious Food--get a table outside.

And, agreed--for seafood drive down to Panacea and eat at Posey's right next to the Panacea springs (a hundred years ago, people went there to 'take the waters'). Make sure you start with a West Indies salad (the best crab meat you'll ever taste).

And there is some disagreement about Angelo's since it re-opened after the fluke storm surge from Hurricane Dennis destroyed the place in July 2005.  But we've been there several times since it re-opened and have not been disappointed. Make sure you get a house salad with the Greek trimmings.  Plus enjoy the view of Ochlocknee Bay from just about any table in the place.

Thank you for the replies! 

Hmm.  Have not tried this place yet but it is indeed on my "to do" list.

I am sure you are well meaning. And I am not PC. But "Oriental" is considered to be offensive to many Asian people. The correct term would be Asian.
