“My wife and I had an amazing time at Spanish River Grill last night. Our server Gene was a true gentleman and knew his stuff. Food was flawless and the flavors were banging! The whipped feta appetizer and setas (sauteed mushrooms) were perfect! Definitely coming back here again! Thanks ”
“We both had brunch here, with perfectly seasoned (not overpowering) potatoes, eggs, veggies, etc. Setting was lovely (outdoor but shaded) and the service was efficient and courteous. Expect a wait on Sunday around noon--but worth the wait!”
“It my husband, toddler, and myself and I haven’t had this good of a “home cooked” meal in quite some time. It was absolutely delicious. We had meatloaf ribs and the brownie and it was all top notch. I wish we would’ve eaten here the entire time we were there.”
“Consistent, delicious, friendly. A fun and vibrant atmosphere. I love looking at all the plants. Great food…by far either whatever the daily special is or the fillet with the most delicious mashed potatoes Are my go to choices.They have the best margarita I’ve ever tasted and they are five dollars every day all day.No, they’re not paying me for this review! I live about two blocks away and this is my go to place:)”
“I’ve been here a couple times and I typically get the daily special. It’s just so good, fast, unique for the area, just all around a great spot! Also, vegan/vegetarian friendly, GF friendly, and (most importantly) dog friendly!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“The atmosphere at The Treehouse at Dusk is spectacular! Our group had a great time of cocktails & dinner. However, if you have a shellfish allergy, have Benadryl or your Epi pen ready as there appears to be cross contamination in the kitchen. My friend ordered a non shellfish entree but still got hives & an itchy throat after dinner before leaving the restaurant.”
“My friend and I stopped for lunch yesterday on a whim. So glad we did! It was hard to choose because of the huge menu but we decided on the lunch special of 2 rolls and soup. There were probably a dozen choices for the rolls. I chose the shrimp and cucumber along with the sweet potato roll. They were incredibly delicious, especially (and surprisingly)the sweet potato one! My friend chose the eel and cucumber along with the shrimp tempura. The meals were beautifully presented and the service was great. Can't wait to come back to explore more items on the menu.”
“Went for dinner last night. We had the Courtyard muscles. I had stake and my wife had the pork chop. All delicious. Owner, waitress and atmosphere all fantastic. Will return.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“Service was quick & food was good. My kids wanted a second order of the fries! I thought my daughter’s planko breaded chicken fingers were really good! My husband got one of the chicken and bacon sandwiches. If you like spicy - get the pepper sauce on the side for sure. Blessed to meet the owner and hear his mission with his restaurants which only made me want to support him more!! You walk up to order & eat at the picnic tables outside which was nice for the kids to have laid back dining. Might have to try the gator bites before we go back home!”
“Decided to try another one of NSB’s best and it absolutely did not disappoint! Arrived at around 4:15pm and sat at the bar. My server was friendly and was quick to get me water and bread while I looked over the menu. Decided on the sea scallops & short rib served with truffle mashed potatoes and au jus, which was just fantastic! The three scallops were large, perfectly cooked, tender and delicious, the short rib was also incredibly tender and flavorful and the mashed potatoes were top tier, the truffle was noticeable but not overpowering! Their bread was also incredibly fresh and good, nice crunchy crust with pillowy soft insides and was right out of the oven, so the salted butter they provide melted right into it— Heaven! I decided to snag a piece of the caramel cheesecake to go, which was also a wise move, because it was creamy, sweet, and had a lovely caramel flavor throughout. I will undoubtedly be back here more often, even though I live around 40 minutes away!My only critique (and it’s a pretty minor one) is I would have preferred the short rib to be one large cube instead of several smaller bite sized pieces. The large cube would have been more photogenic, but from a flavor standpoint I suppose it doesn’t matter.”
“My fiancé Dani, and IDined in this evening. She ordered the pimento bacon jam and and chili cheese waffle fries.I ordered the bacon lover, waffle, fries. and strawberry shake. This is by far one of the best. (Juicy, cheesy, 5 napkin, smash burger On a brioche pretzel roll), in Valucia county. And the chili cheese waffle fries were out of this world. I meant the owner Mike,Who seemed to be a very pleasant, approachable, down-to-earth guy that cares about his customers. He's very proud that he does things the right way, with fresh ingredients including Fresh angus beef that's never frozen. It just so happens that his family was there eating at the end of the night as well. You know, it's great quality food.When the owners serve it to their own family. My fiancé and I definitely will be going back soon. Such a great experience.Parking: They have their own parking lot. Ample amount of spaces plus drive through.”
“Big Joe's is not just for subs! If you are looking to feed your family, check out the menu! The prices are so reasonable, the service is fantastic and the did is delicious!Vegetarian options: They make anything you like! Very personable!”

“Place is very busy but the food is well worth it. The queso cheese is the best in the world. Place is amazing for breakfast or lunch. Again very busy on weekends so go on a week day. Avocado toast is wonderful. And all the waffles are so soft and buttery. When the restaurant is full/busy it is very cramped however so if you are disabled or have trouble moving that may be a concern. Amazing food!”

“Always a great meal. Love the little BBQ buns and the Pad ThaiParking: Parking is difficult for a large truck but available on the side streets. Small unkept parking area behind the restaurant”
“Best place on New Smyrna Beach & in the Daytona area. 2-3 outdoor tables, 3 indoor tables & 10ish bar seats. If there’s a wait, it moves quickly and there’s plenty of fun shops to explore. Excellent service & food. Drinks are reasonably priced. Portions are generous, everything is made fresh to order and the place runs like a well oiled machine. This was probably my 10th visit here, and it’s always been top notch. Make sure you order the garlic knots, I dream about them when I’m back home!”

“We love Izzy’s!! Always fresh and so tasty! You may need to wait, but it’s soooo worth it! We love to call ahead for takeout, so we don’t have to wait! We love so many items here; the steak bowl, crunchy tacos, plantains, fries with queso, the yucca fries and homemade ice cream! ???Vegetarian options: They can make veggie bowls, veggie tacos and veggie quesadillas. I used to love their mushroom taco, but I think they got rid of it. They have a black bean taco now.Kid-friendliness: You order at the counter and take to go. They have a small seating area inside and picnic tables outside. You can even order s’mores for their firepit on the weekend. May want to call ahead for that.”

“There are few places in this world that check all the boxes.The Spott doesn’t even know what boxes are as they are so far outside the box in every aspect of culinary excellence! From their creative cuisine, out of this world chef, amazing staff, and the dedication, loyalty and over the top service from the owners. The Spott in New Smyrna Beach FL with their constantly amazing food has won every kudos from me and this town!”
“We visit as a family tradition that started with my grandfather every spring break. We love the food, the location, the atmosphere. Our kids love going too!Parking: Parking can get hard to find the later in the evening you wait as it's a popular restaurant to get there early.Kid-friendliness: Kids love coming here. Variety of food options.”
“VALENTINA, the owner's daughter was a wonderful waitress. The food and Ambiance were excellent. My husband had his favorite meal Bracciole and I had rotini Bolognese. I had a Lambrusco and a Chianti. It was dark and romantic and we are going back for our anniversary soon.”
Outdoor Dining
“Coffee was smooth and fresh. Definitely a little hipster vibe in the shop itself but we liked it overall! Would be a great place to pull out your laptop and get some work done. We enjoyed the lavender latte and regular latte.”
“My friend and I drove over from Tampa as I have a friend who lives in Daytona Beach. We had a great time. Saw on Triple D on tv and the food was great. Plan on coming ”
“One of our favorite places in New Smyrna. The service is always friendly. You can make a meal of the great selection of appetizers. Every meal I've enjoyed here has been great.”
“Best little Dairy Queen around. Old style walk-up windows. Beautiful outdoor seating with shade and sidewalk chalk for the kids to be creative. The only downside to our visit was the no see ums bugs were out in full force. That is no fault of DQ. It's still always a fun blast from past experience.”
“Went for dinner last night. We had the Courtyard muscles. I had stake and my wife had the pork chop. All delicious. Owner, waitress and atmosphere all fantastic. Will return.”

“I like to go for their brunch. You should get there aroung 10:30 to 11:00 for the best selection / freshness. The $4 Mimosas are great! Last weekend the had an omelett bar and pancake station”

“The quintessential beach bar and grill, right on the beach with gorgeous views of the Atlantic. Get a burger, they are so dang delicious! It's always busy on the weekend. Small parking lot fills fast, but I have an annual beach parking pass, so I use the Flagler access ramp next to the restaurant and find a spot within walking distance. Service is fast and friendly.”
“I came to Island Roasters for my morning coffee and had a nice experience. I ordered an iced peppermint mocha and thought the flavors were great. The peppermint was not overwhelming like other drinks I have had with peppermint. My partner ordered a hot chai latte. He liked his chai latte. The service was nice as well as the atmosphere. I will be back to Island Roasters on my next trip to New Smyrna Beach.”
“Getting seated can be chaotic so you need to be assertive. The hostess immediatley forgot that she told us we would be seated by the next runner. Several parties were seated before us. No apologies. The atmosphere is very cool. Our server was competent and patient. The food was tasty. Lots of comfort food. The musician was very good. I don't know if I will go back. The experience was impersonal but the atmosphere is so unique.”
“The absolute closest you will get to actual tastes from Germany. I've searched many in the area, no one touches the Brat House. The schnitzel is to die for... check them out.”
“Best maple coconut matcha ever!!! Such a cute little hidden gem in the down town area of New Smyrna Beach.. really friendly people with baked goods and smoothies... large outdoor area to sit off the main busy street and just relax for a bit...”
“Great spot! The coconut hog fish was absolutely best piece of fish I have ever had. Light, flaky and cooked to perfection.The shrimp and grits were cheesy, and again, cooked PERFECTLY.Highly recommend.”
“Been there many times.Every time. Perfect. Every dish I've had is great. Fave is french onion soup. Not a fish filet fan but have loved every specialty dish I've tried with fish...3 times...swordfish, trout and I don't remember. I think a wahoo. The Brussel sprouts and asparagus are epic. Key lime parfait on point. Tiramisu when offered, perfect. Creme brulee perfect.Chef comes out and interacts when not preparing the amazing dishes he does. All servers have been phenomenal.”

“Me and my family love cafe heavenly I have been eating here for years and always get the wood fired pizza and lobster rolls they are to die for ! Haha check this place out if you can, hope you love it as much as I do.??”
“Went last night & really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant! Natalie was our waitress and she was great , she made sure to constantly check on us and keep a great attitude while waiting other tables. Food was great!! Definitely would come again:)”
“Our group of 12 had a 5 star dining experience! We were placed in their private room and Joseph, our server, was a rock star! He was personable and attentive and managed our large group perfectly! The owner came in to greet us and he made sure we were well taken care of from the incredible appetizers (lamb chops were my fave) to the delicious desserts! They have an impressive wine list, the service was superior and the food was perfectly prepared!”
“Our first time at Flagged Tavern was to see the New Smyrna Mardi Gras. The service was reasonable considering the place was packed. The raw oysters are the best I've ever had. The rest of the menu also looks very appealing. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommended restaurant.Update: April 10th, 2024.We've been back to Flagler Tavern, several times specially to see Sam Bittenbender play. We enjoy having dinner while enjoying a great show by Sam.”
“I've eaten here a couple of times and it's always been delicious. When you walk in the door, you feel the good energy. The people who work there are very kind and helpful.The food is fresh and delicious.I'll definitely be back soon.”
“I recently visited Outriggers for drinks (Friday happy hour), as it was my first time there. The ambiance was pleasant and airy, with a boat dock nearby. An entertainer sang and played the guitar, which added to the lively atmosphere of the happy hour. The clientele appeared to be affluent and a cheery bunch. The drinks were of good quality, but seating at the bar could be limited. For dining, reservations are recommended. Although I did not dine there, the menu looked appealing, and I heard positive comments about the wagyu sliders. I intend to return and sample some of the cuisine.”
“Great early bird menu and cool drink specials. Food is all high quality and very fresh. The value is great vs. most of the usual suspects in NSB. You just have to be willing to trade the view for lower prices and better service.We did a weeknight at 5 and got right in (or I should say out as we ate on the patio). The Thai Thai shrimp is awesome and is large enough to be a group appetizer. Coconut shrimp was very good and you get a huge portion. Drinks are good and well priced and the beer list is solid.Lots of parking and close enough to the beach to still get the NSB feel. Highly recommended.”
Takeout Restaurants
“This place is awesome! The food was REALLY GOOD and the owners/workers were SO KIND! I had the club sandwich and some tomato basil soup, and before we left, they brought out some Italian Cheesecake (SO GOOD) on the house. I highly recommend checking this place out! I will definitely be coming back!”
“I have most often, by far, done delivery. But I will review dine in for those who don't live close enough for delivery. Very, very good pizza! Even a non-pizza afficionado enjoyed it. Though not much seating, we were not rushed in the least. I was accompanied by two who had never been there. All questions were answered pleasantly. Thin, crispy crust. High quality ingredients. My brother's pepperoni (he is not a pepperoni fan but did not ask for a substitute on his pizza) was not in the least bit greasy. My gluten free crust was delicious, as usual. I ordered the gyro pizza for something totally different, and learned some people come especially for that. I understand why. It was excellent. I had never tried their wings. So I ordered them to go, extra crispy (they were!) with sweet Thai chili sauce (yes, they have it!). This little place is a find! I love it. #shoplocal #eatlocal”

“Authentic French bakery, been frequenting and enjoying their sandwiches, yule log and pastries for decades and always reliability wonderful. A true treasure in New Smyrna Beach!”

“Wait time was ridiculous at The Garlic, so we decided to go somewhere else. Glad we did this place is warm and friendly with good food.Salsiccia Peperonata 6/10$10.49Classic Italian sausage and peppers with onions and garlic, sautéed in olive oil.- just probably not my thing. The overall taste was good but would have preferred my sausage crispy and the peppers and onions with a little more bite. To me the texture was off.Caesar Salad. 8/10$10.49Fresh romaine topped with grated and shaved parmesan, as well as our house-made croutons. Served with our locally made Caesar dressing on the side.-Pretty good Caesar salad. The shaved and grated parmesan was a nice touch. The dressing was above average and tasted homemade.Prosciutto & Arugula Pizza 8/10$16.49/+Thinly sliced prosciutto, fresh arugula, cherry tomatoes, and shaved parmesan over mozzarella. If you would like to add additional toppings, you can scroll down to add them to the entire pizza (whole), the first half, or the second half | $16.49 / 12" | $20.99 / 16"- solid pizza. The dough/crust is to die for. All fresh ingredients. Personally I think it was missing an important element like a balsamic drizzle to tie everything together. Would definitely order another pizza but probably a different one or customize this one.All in all we will be coming back to try other menu items. Solid experience.”
“First time in since moving here and it was fantastic all around! Fast service and if you want real butter ask for it. Coffee was good too. Looking forward to the salad bar coming back in season. Super affordable!”
“I've eaten here a couple of times and it's always been delicious. When you walk in the door, you feel the good energy. The people who work there are very kind and helpful.The food is fresh and delicious.I'll definitely be back soon.”
“Venetian Bay needed a place like this. The coffee and drinks are top-notch, the food is wonderful, and the service is fast and friendly. They even serve beer and mimosas for brunch lovers. If you're looking for a different type of coffee spot in Volusia, please give this place a try!”
“Excellent selection and food at reasonable prices. I feel so fortunate to have Taco Shack near my new home, it's so convenient affordable and quick to get a great meal!”
“Service was fantastic! Sat outside and enjoyed the weather and people watching. Crab cakes were great. The turkey club was ok. Next time will be for the breakfast food as it looked good.”

“We ordered the Meatza Pizza. We were starved having just moved to the area. We were pleasantly surprised at how generous the toppings were on the pizza. We also ordered a salmon spread (a neighbor recommended it to us)...it was "meh" at best...it was dry salmon with a ton of capers on it it...the chips it was served with were good though. Would have given it 4 stars because of the salmon dip, but the pizza was so great, I had to give them a 5 star!”
“There were 5 of us. Seating was immediate and server was straight over to our table. Everyone liked their food but described it as warm no hot. I had meatballs and calamari and both were great but again warm. Not hot.”

“Food's always right and the crew treats me like family.Dietary restrictions: I don't eat pork and I've never had a problem with my order being wrong at this location.”
“Fantastic creamy soft serve ice cream! Creamier than say a Dairy Queen ice cream but not as heavy as a Culver's custard! You will not be disappointed! I guarantee it!”
“Last couple times I've gone inside on Saturday evenings with my son and his friend. Both times they reallyyy push ordering at the kiosk ?. I can and it's ok , but takes longer ! The other evening the employee you want to order at kiosk ? I said no not really . The employee WALKS past the two regular registers to help me out with the kiosk ?♀️. Justtt let me order at the kiosk ! My son ordered at the kiosk, but still has to go to the register because he was paying cash. I prefer ordering at the register !”
“I would say, it was good for a McDonald's.Nice , huge area inside but they forget my shake for the first time, but I got it when I asked for it.Overall I recommend it.”
“Probably the fastest service I've ever had at a Dunkin and my order was perfect. I always get a Cocoa mocha iced Latte and this location made it taste the best I've ever had it!!”
“They were very busy, but the staff handled it well.Parking: Curbside pickup is directly across from the drive thru.Kid-friendliness: No playground, but the food is definitely kid friendly.”
“Prompt service, friendly, they missed my fries but immediately gave me them as soon as we realized. All the fries were hot and crispy. Much better than any I get in some other states.Parking: The road on the side of McDonald's was a little confusing. Thought it was part of McDonald's because of how it is set up but it was an actual road.”
“To go window. Staffed by pleasant people these days. Food is consistent Wendy's quality. They were out of diet soda but this is first occasion for that in many years, so I am not marking them down for that. The unsweet iced tea was good. I miss their organic green tea from years past. But a franchisee has no control over that.”
“I find the staff here to be very informative and helpful and their food is delicious. They carry the best products and are knowledgeable about their products. They recommended this product and it worked to take my cold away…I’m thankful”

“What a refreshing stop before hitting the beach! Everything is fresh and clean. Prices are not shown on the menu but they have a nice variety of options. For two yummy smoothies it was about 20+ dollars.”
“Very loud...to add to the deafening noise,had a guitarist...had nice carport,left in pouring rain...cars can't get to carport...got totally soaked....why is this when our avg.population is 70+...”

“Great spotBrought 14 guys on a bus tour.Nikki was amazingGreat service and fun for us and never missed a beat with her regulars.Food is surprisingly good bar foodVery reasonable”
“First, this is a great little coffee shop. Nice and new and clean. I gave 5 stars because of this and the service. However, there is no WiFi which will keep me from returning until they get WiFi. A coffee shop, especially a local owned business can’t survive and thrive without WiFi it’s a basic requirement. Additionally they charged me a $1 more than what the price was listed for a 16 oz cold brew. I didn’t say anything because I’m happy to contribute to small businesses, but they should fix this because most people wouldn’t want to be overcharged. This place has great potential but they need to draw business as it was empty. With a few tweaks and some advertising they could survive and thrive.”
“Typical dive biker bar..bartender Mary Kay was fun,great sense of humor..my only regret is that we have never seen the coleslaw wrestling!! We had beers,bloody Marys only.”
“Today was bad day for my Waitress. She had a 100 excuses on why she never checked on me.left me with Cold Coffee ,.left me with a cup with ice no soda my eggs were overcooked i had gd review before this one with pictures I took it off because what happened today it was so good thats day that's why i came back today.sad. it time for me to find new sport not sure if ower a where of it money is money for any business I know how important review are.”
“This place is a hidden gem. We passed it while staying for my son's spring break and realized most places close early so we stopped in. We sat at the bar and were greeted immediately by a fun, outgoing bartender - (wish I got his name), he wore a fun hat and had the personality that fits his job. There was also a girl bartender who was just as attentive - they never missed a beat and it was busy. We ordered chips and salsa (probably the best salsa I've had at a restaurant), hot dog and tacos. Food was on point!!! Drinks were never empty - live music was a plus bc of the variety of music being played. We will definitely be back - maybe even tonight.”
“Dont miss this cute hut just minutes from the beach. Went twice while in New Smyrna. Refreshing fresh juices. Acai bowl was also fresh. Service was friendly and quick.”
“Ordered the hot honey panko chicken biscuit. That was one of the most delicious meals I have ever eaten! I also ordered a ham and cheese empanada. I highly recommend that you do the same!”
“First of, Casey's NSB needs a bigger sign. It took me ages to find the place. The existing signage is ridiculously small. The bar itself was very small and intimate, with limited table and bar seating. Considering how busy they were, the bar service was quite good. They had a really good band (The Click) playing this night, and the sound was quite good.”
“Had the greatest time on a rainy night in March. We came to see Jeff Howell perform (along with Casey Howell) and were treated to caring, attentive seevice, and a great wine selection.CH has a small selection of small plates (charcuterie, fruits, veggies, and cheeses.Along with their normal large selections of wines they serve a rotation of "special event" wines.All in all a comfortable place we need to return to.Parking: Lots of parking within a block or two.”
“I am sad to say I have been coming to NSB for 20 years and only this year did we try Mikey’s Pizza. The best pizza I have had in NSB. The ingredients are so fresh, the crust perfect. The cheese is amazing. Highly ”
“Heaven in your backyard! This is a gem of a find! Recently enjoyed the Rueben, Rachel, Burgers, Wings and Meatloaf (as a family) so we had to return for St. Patrick's day. Drinks were whimsical and delicious. As a "Kennedy," we were glad we didn't celebrate anywhere else! Shephard's Pie and Irish Stew were sinfully delicious. The family friendly service makes me wish every day were a holiday. Make this your go-to date night, family night, celebration or night out spot!”
“Whether you've just finished a long day at the beach or dinner by the water, Frozen Gold is the perfect place to stop for a cool treat! My partner ordered the banana split and I had the cookie dough sundae. We both enjoyed thoroughly. For both of our items, the total was $15. I will be back and highly recommend stopping.”
“Very friendly people there. Even with it being a busy night they made sure to come by frequently to check up on us.The pizza was greatParking: They had someone out there helping people find parking, so even on busy nights you should be and to find a spot”
“The best pizzeria in town Queen was the best but she isn’t there no more we miss her! Amazing food with amazing people love it here so much!Vegetarian options: Some vegetarians option vegan friendlyKid-friendliness: Service is really friendly Anthony is the best!”
“You scream I scream we all scream for ADULT ice cream. What a delicious idea and very well executed. The Jack Daniels chocolate was creamy, chocolatey and had a wonderful Jack taste. We also had the coconut rum, banana fosters and Amaretto cherry. We enjoyed the indoor seating with the beachy theme decor. We will go back again to try the flavors we missed out on the first time”
“We come every spring break. Love this place! Y'all are so lucky! We"d eat here once a week if we could but we'll have to wait another 360 or so days. Thank you for another great meal ☺️”
“Went last night & really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant! Natalie was our waitress and she was great , she made sure to constantly check on us and keep a great attitude while waiting other tables. Food was great!! Definitely would come again:)”
“Our group of 12 had a 5 star dining experience! We were placed in their private room and Joseph, our server, was a rock star! He was personable and attentive and managed our large group perfectly! The owner came in to greet us and he made sure we were well taken care of from the incredible appetizers (lamb chops were my fave) to the delicious desserts! They have an impressive wine list, the service was superior and the food was perfectly prepared!”
“I had the linguini with clams red sauce spicy-I have eaten this in NYC and SF and I would say this is probably the best version I have ever had-clams in the sauce and fresh clams(in shell) in abundance on top of the pasta-top notch”
“Everything was cooked to perfection. Crispy fries and fish with a side of coleslaw. We ordered the larger fish and chips and shared. It came with two sides so we each got a slaw. The waiter was very prompt ant attended to our needs.”
“From the house wine to the tirimisu we thoroughly enjoyed every bite we ate. The crepe lasagna is one of a kind and a must try if you've never had it. The service was great and it was very busy for a Wednesday night. A quaint little gem right on Flagler Ave.”

“I love writing positive reviews when it’s needed and if I could give 10 stars for this one I would. According to the tracker Kylie made our pizzas and this has to be the best tasting pizza we have ever ordered from any dominoes! Perfect amount of ingredients and cooked to perfection! Kylie you did an outstanding job! Thank you!”
“Atmosphere is ok... It's a Denny's. But staff is always friendly and fast. I work night shift, so I usually come in at 4am. But the cooking usually hits the spot.”
“Excellent selection and food at reasonable prices. I feel so fortunate to have Taco Shack near my new home, it's so convenient affordable and quick to get a great meal!”
“There were 5 of us. Seating was immediate and server was straight over to our table. Everyone liked their food but described it as warm no hot. I had meatballs and calamari and both were great but again warm. Not hot.”
“Best maple coconut matcha ever!!! Such a cute little hidden gem in the down town area of New Smyrna Beach.. really friendly people with baked goods and smoothies... large outdoor area to sit off the main busy street and just relax for a bit...”
“First of all: 10% off yelp check-in coupon!! So nice!! Upon entering, we were immediately welcomed by a charming presumably Italian gentleman who showed us to our table. The atmosphere is humble- vinyl table cloths and booths but there is big band music playing quietly for ambience. Beer and California Wine only for adult beverages-which was fine for us. We ordered a carafe of the house Chianti at server Heather's rec- it did not disappoint. I ordered Sicilian grouper and it was delicious- portion size just right- with salad and home made knot rolls-- Hubs had the shells and they were delicious also. We had our fill so I don't know about the dessert menu- we payed it forward with our unfinished carafe and gifted it to a nearby table of adults who were already served wine. We will return. Remember to tip from full price;)”
“Getting seated can be chaotic so you need to be assertive. The hostess immediatley forgot that she told us we would be seated by the next runner. Several parties were seated before us. No apologies. The atmosphere is very cool. Our server was competent and patient. The food was tasty. Lots of comfort food. The musician was very good. I don't know if I will go back. The experience was impersonal but the atmosphere is so unique.”
“Went for dinner last night. We had the Courtyard muscles. I had stake and my wife had the pork chop. All delicious. Owner, waitress and atmosphere all fantastic. Will return.”
“A restaurant with a brewery in it, how cool! Every time I come to this half wall it’s always a consistently great experience even during parties or just take out. I can’t recommend this place more if you’re looking for a place to have good food and drinks quite literally made in houseParking: Lots of parking although it can be a little walk if it’s packed”
“I’ve been here a couple times and I typically get the daily special. It’s just so good, fast, unique for the area, just all around a great spot! Also, vegan/vegetarian friendly, GF friendly, and (most importantly) dog friendly!”
“We loved it in here the atmosphere was clean and smart and the staff was friendly. We were looking to spend a bit of time as we had a couple of hours to spend and were treated well throughout our visit.We shared a Fish Po' Boy and a chicken sandwich the Looney Bird or something.The chicken sandwich had a nice light coating and a nice flavor, and the fish was plentiful, well cooked, and had a great flavor.We hung out and ordered Cookies and Milk for dessert, 2 big ooey gooey, warm cookies cooked fresh and served warm, we also enjoyed a couple of cups of coffee with a shot of Jameson's.All in all a great time!”
“It my husband, toddler, and myself and I haven’t had this good of a “home cooked” meal in quite some time. It was absolutely delicious. We had meatloaf ribs and the brownie and it was all top notch. I wish we would’ve eaten here the entire time we were there.”
“I have tried four times in the last 9 months to see if River Deck restaurant could get my meal right. Each time it was worse. Under cooked fish, slimy, the lettuce was wilted tiny bit of lettuce attached the the core thick chunks of lettuce core, that's obviously a FILLER in a meal that's not cheap. Their spice on the fish is a little strong, they changed thier condiments no sour cream you can have spicy sour cream. 60 percent of people like it a little milder and sour cream is usually offered to cool down the spiciness. The tomatoes were mushy and that's all that I could have eaten. I took it back and Managment gave me my money back twice now. The manager then tells me my Husband needs to learn how to order right. OK This is what he asked for Fish Tacos meat cooked not slimy no core of lettuce limes and plain sour cream without spices already added and say you don't serve sour cream at all anymore, with fresh lettuce and fresh tomatoes nothing wilted. They can't do any of that so we won't go back. There's no we could try again nothing we are done trying.”
“Family delayed flight from the airport and I knew they would be hungry. Had them decide menu choice from the car, and I picked it up .Everything was still hot when they arrived. One of the best Italian dinners in the area, plenty to eat (and leftovers), and the owner threw in some cheesy garlic bread on the house! Everyone was full! Don't sell this place short!”

“Our first time at Flagged Tavern was to see the New Smyrna Mardi Gras. The service was reasonable considering the place was packed. The raw oysters are the best I've ever had. The rest of the menu also looks very appealing. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommended restaurant.Update: April 10th, 2024.We've been back to Flagler Tavern, several times specially to see Sam Bittenbender play. We enjoy having dinner while enjoying a great show by Sam.”
“Service was quick & food was good. My kids wanted a second order of the fries! I thought my daughter’s planko breaded chicken fingers were really good! My husband got one of the chicken and bacon sandwiches. If you like spicy - get the pepper sauce on the side for sure. Blessed to meet the owner and hear his mission with his restaurants which only made me want to support him more!! You walk up to order & eat at the picnic tables outside which was nice for the kids to have laid back dining. Might have to try the gator bites before we go back home!”
“I like to go for their brunch. You should get there aroung 10:30 to 11:00 for the best selection / freshness. The $4 Mimosas are great! Last weekend the had an omelett bar and pancake station”
“My fiancé Dani, and IDined in this evening. She ordered the pimento bacon jam and and chili cheese waffle fries.I ordered the bacon lover, waffle, fries. and strawberry shake. This is by far one of the best. (Juicy, cheesy, 5 napkin, smash burger On a brioche pretzel roll), in Valucia county. And the chili cheese waffle fries were out of this world. I meant the owner Mike,Who seemed to be a very pleasant, approachable, down-to-earth guy that cares about his customers. He's very proud that he does things the right way, with fresh ingredients including Fresh angus beef that's never frozen. It just so happens that his family was there eating at the end of the night as well. You know, it's great quality food.When the owners serve it to their own family. My fiancé and I definitely will be going back soon. Such a great experience.Parking: They have their own parking lot. Ample amount of spaces plus drive through.”
“one of the better breweries in this part of FL, the beer is excellent, diverse, and the staff is amazing - particularly Rachel and Brent! Will come back here every time I'm in town.”
“If you are shopping nearby, you probably are smelling the smoked meat this place serves! Plenty of different smoked meats to choose from. I ordered the smoked turkey and pulled pork with a side of corn pudding (the best side they have in my opinion). Everything was tasty and they have a selection of bbq sauces available on the tables.”
“Place is very busy but the food is well worth it. The queso cheese is the best in the world. Place is amazing for breakfast or lunch. Again very busy on weekends so go on a week day. Avocado toast is wonderful. And all the waffles are so soft and buttery. When the restaurant is full/busy it is very cramped however so if you are disabled or have trouble moving that may be a concern. Amazing food!”
“The quintessential beach bar and grill, right on the beach with gorgeous views of the Atlantic. Get a burger, they are so dang delicious! It's always busy on the weekend. Small parking lot fills fast, but I have an annual beach parking pass, so I use the Flagler access ramp next to the restaurant and find a spot within walking distance. Service is fast and friendly.”
“Always a great meal. Love the little BBQ buns and the Pad ThaiParking: Parking is difficult for a large truck but available on the side streets. Small unkept parking area behind the restaurant”
“We went at 6 on a Sunday, thinking it might not be too crowded.We we're wrong,it was really busy and loud from the pool players. However, the service was quick,and my cheese steak sandwich was good. The wings were ok, but overrated,if you want real wings you have to go to Butler Pa. to get them.”
“Excellent location on happening canal st. Hip new eatery with unique and tasty menu options. Good beer and cocktail selection. Hustling staff. It's worth the stop for sure.Truffle parmeson fries are well above your average French fries.”
“My wife and I love Culver's. We haven't eaten at another fast food restaurant since NSB opened. We're here at least once a week. The burgers and fries are excellent and have always been hot. It's always clean and the employees have been great. Especially Miss Debbie behind the counter. She's top shelf.”
“Heaven in your backyard! This is a gem of a find! Recently enjoyed the Rueben, Rachel, Burgers, Wings and Meatloaf (as a family) so we had to return for St. Patrick's day. Drinks were whimsical and delicious. As a "Kennedy," we were glad we didn't celebrate anywhere else! Shephard's Pie and Irish Stew were sinfully delicious. The family friendly service makes me wish every day were a holiday. Make this your go-to date night, family night, celebration or night out spot!”
“Our favorite go-to place on NSB. First of all from the very first visit Katie was so friendly and attentive to us we immediately knew we would be back. With that being said we figure we have been there 15-20 times at least.Parking: Never an issue, valet available when needed”
“Decided to try another one of NSB’s best and it absolutely did not disappoint! Arrived at around 4:15pm and sat at the bar. My server was friendly and was quick to get me water and bread while I looked over the menu. Decided on the sea scallops & short rib served with truffle mashed potatoes and au jus, which was just fantastic! The three scallops were large, perfectly cooked, tender and delicious, the short rib was also incredibly tender and flavorful and the mashed potatoes were top tier, the truffle was noticeable but not overpowering! Their bread was also incredibly fresh and good, nice crunchy crust with pillowy soft insides and was right out of the oven, so the salted butter they provide melted right into it— Heaven! I decided to snag a piece of the caramel cheesecake to go, which was also a wise move, because it was creamy, sweet, and had a lovely caramel flavor throughout. I will undoubtedly be back here more often, even though I live around 40 minutes away!My only critique (and it’s a pretty minor one) is I would have preferred the short rib to be one large cube instead of several smaller bite sized pieces. The large cube would have been more photogenic, but from a flavor standpoint I suppose it doesn’t matter.”
