50 Best American Restaurants in Daytona Beach

“the restaurant is located in ocean jewels resort . the restaurant is extremely clean. I have food allergies an the lady let me read the labels , made my hamburger with cheese no bun. I substituted a fruit cup for French fries. that was a bit skimpy, even tho I paid a $ additional $3.00. my husband ordered BLT, he was happy with it . a bit pricey but the food is excellent and it's very clean. the only issue I had was the trainee perhaps? eating a biscuit right behind the counter“

“Our family absolutely loved it! I had a Model A and it was delicious!“

“I am so happy that this restaurant has vegan options! Plus they fixed my dish without oil. I should've asked for no salt, too, because I found my dish too heavily seasoned with something that they said wasn't salt but it sure tasted that way. Enjoyed that yummy green juice and ate the tofu and gluten-free avocado toast and sent back the potatoes for a fresh order, no seasoning. Perfect! They were happy to accommodate. Will definitely go back!“

“Good food“

“Such a laid-back and Chill Spot to take a lunch. Not to mention the wonderful customer service and staff. If you notice, the more years go by the more we lack in customer service. Will this place just restored my faith in the field of customer satisfaction. Food is top quality with premium ingredients and very well reasonably priced. I will be back at least once or twice a week. Thankfully I only work walking distance.“

“Had the fruit bowl, garlic Parmesan wings w/ fries, chicken tenders w/fries. It was all amazing. wings had a light smoke taste but did not over kill the garlic Parmesan. crispy but not to hard. chicken tenders were amazing... unique taste. Gotta go to try it. food was cooked fresh, hot when delivered to table. fries served in little fry basket. seasoned just right. not soggy. The pricing I believe is very reasonable compared to other local restaurants. staff friendly and knowledge about food prepared. Highly recommend.

“We come several times per year when visiting my folks who live in Ormond. The food is good, staff is fantastic, and the beer selection is second to none in the area. The only thing I'd like to see is glasses as opposed to plastic cups for your fantastic beer. Looking forward to our next visit.“

“Great good on Easter Sunday. Problem:,pieces of paper on the floor (at least 5 and one larger crumpled up piece) and none of the waitresses, or the help, would stop to pick them up. Also my Cabernet had so much sediment in the bottom it left a huge skid mark up the side of the glass. Seems like a change in managers or increased training.“

The waitress was very friendly and attentive.

The food was cooked to order and all was very good.“

“Cathy was our server. She was knowledgeable about the menu and the available draft beers. She was a most excellent conversationalist, professional, and funny, she had us laughing. She was quick to pre bus the table so we could sit back and relax... Awesome decor, cleanliness and wonderful treatment of our dog Baron Treats and bags.“

“Hibachi Grill and Supreme Buffet in Daytona Beach is easily one of our favorite spots in town. Every visit has been consistently fantastic. The food is always hot, fresh, and well stocked, even during busy times. The all you can eat crab legs for just 29 are unbeatable. I have never seen a better price anywhere and the quality is outstanding every single time.

The sushi bar is always top notch with a great variety to choose from, and the hibachi station is one of the highlights. The chefs do an excellent job cooking everything exactly how you want it. There is also a huge selection of classic buffet items, fresh vegetables, seafood dishes, and desserts, so everyone can find something they love.

The restaurant is clean, the staff is friendly, and they keep everything moving smoothly. It is rare to find a buffet that maintains this level of quality and consistency, but Hibachi Grill and Supreme Buffet does it effortlessly. If you are in Daytona Beach and want a great meal at a great value, this place is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend!“

“I just wanted to take a moment to thank all staff working tonight, 5/16/24 from 6-7pm. I don’t think my family has ever been as much of a hot mess as we were tonight…but we had multiple special dietary requests when ordering to accommodate my diet, changed a few items after the team member had already punched in our first selections, my son was loud and my husband spilled a full drink which NEVER happens. 😂 The food came quickly, it was delicious and hot. We were treated with compassion and kindness throughout our visit. I just want to say how much I appreciated every single team member’s smiles and joking nature. We aren’t normally that out of sorts, promise! Haha. The Guzman Family says thank you for a fantastic Culver’s experience in Daytona! ❤️“

“I had such a great time at this restaurant! I went with a group of 6 ladies for a girls night out. The ambiance was warm and inviting with a stunning backdrop on the water. The hostess and servers were so inviting and patient with everyone. The drinks and appetizers unique and delicious! This is a classy but very comfortable place to go for a relaxing evening. I highly recommend for couples looking for a romantic evening but also for groups of friends to go somewhere and unwind.“

“Breezy is hands down the reason i will be coming back here. So helpful, great attitude, and deserve all the praise.

“Cuz they make the hashbrowns good! ☺️#nummers #numtown“

“Tara was a breath of fresh air, her beautiful smile and great personality made the food and atmosphere that much better. She was a ray of sunshine on the rainy day we were there. Atmosphere needs a little more island vibe around, but cool place to go.“

“What a lovely Bistro! There was hardly anyone there. It was so quiet and relaxing. Great views of the ocean. The shrimp tacos were outstanding!!! I really liked their homemade potato chips too. The service was impeccable. I'll have to go back again. ?“
