“Since I live in Ponce Inlet, I've been to Down the Hatch many times and have always found their seafood to be so fresh all the time. This time I had my sons visiting me from St. Louis, they wanted to eat at the best restaurant for seafood, and of course, we went right here and it didn't disappoint. They especially loved the shecrab soup with the sherry on the side. It was scrumptious. Their dinners were wonderful, as well as the desserts. Needless to say, we went home with plenty of leftovers. Steve, the server was great. All in all, it was a perfect night. So whether you live nearby or on vacation, make it a point to dine there.“

“I had an outstanding experience at Crab Stop II in Daytona Beach. The food was absolutely excellent — fresh, flavorful, and seasoned perfectly. You can really taste the difference in the quality of the seafood here compared to the average spot.

The portions were generous, the crab legs were cooked just right, and the seasoning mix had the perfect balance of spice and flavor without overpowering the natural taste of the seafood. Everything came out hot and fresh, and it was clear the kitchen takes real pride in their work.

The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed, even though the place was busy. The atmosphere was relaxed but lively, exactly what you’d want in a seafood spot this close to the beach.

If you’re in Daytona Beach and craving seafood, Crab Stop II should be at the top of your list. Great food, great service, and a local vibe that makes you feel welcome. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to whenever I’m in town.“

“My wife and I had an early dinner at Boondocks in Port Orange. The drinks and food were great. The only thing better was the service. If a server passed your table, with a smile they asked how everything was and did you need anything. Best staff attitude I have seen in a long time. Cudos to the Staff and mgt. Of Boondocks Port Orange. A must go.“

“We just ran the 360 Photo Booth at Salty D’s for a charity fundraiser event for Awareness Day (Legal Abuse) with After Awareness. We had such a great time, the venue, staff and food was phenomenal! I overheard people saying it was the best ribeye (if I recall right - I’m a vegetarian here, lol) they have ever heard. I had French fries and the house salad and it was great! We were blown away with the hospitality, kindness and quality of food. I would definitely recommend, plus you’re right across the street from the beach!“

“awesome place 😎 BBQ is the best“

“We went to Caribbean Jacks while on vacation, and were not disappointed. The food was wonderful, and the service was fantastic. This is not the reason for the review however. When we contacted the restaurant about a possible lost credit card, Chris and the rest of his staff went above and beyond by locating the card, then personally mailing it to our home. Now that’s service!“

“Everytime I come here I feel like I have Mark as our server! He’s wonderful! So polite and social and on top of it! I was feeling bad about breaking my foot and he stopped to have a conversation with me that made me feel so much better…. I’ve been coming here for forever and I have zero bad things to say! Great food, great staff, great customer service! Thank you for everything you do guys!“

“highly recommend! 10 stars for our great server. She did a trivia game with us...it was a BLAST! SHE WAS GREAT!!“

“Owners, entertainment, food, vibe, staff - all a 10/10. While everything was fantastic, I’d come just for the ceaser salad and peanut butter pie alone. Can’t wait to visit again.“

“Mama’s has quickly become our new favorite! We greatly enjoy the fresh, healthy menu, as well as the cozy atmosphere, and attentive, friendly staff. We’ve tried several of the delicious dishes and have been impressed and pleased with them. The Spring Rolls are a must with their yummy peanut sauce. The Com Ga Toi is truly scrumptious, as well as the Pho Tai Nam, mouth watering!!! We’ve been full to the gills from the sizable portions, so we haven’t tried dessert yet, but the options look tasty. The staff is engaging and makes you feel welcome as they politely check in on you and fill your drinks and bring the wonderful offerings. We will continue to enjoy Mama’s every chance we get! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“The fish sandwich is amazing!!!! Wings and shrimps are huge and juicy, double smash burger and fries were great. Food was cooked packaged and presented exactly how the pictures looked. Doordash forgot my lemonade but the food was good enough that I wasn't even mad! Will absolutely be back!“
