“First time going to Fat Boi Gourmet Potatoes and I have to say I just had the most delicious late lunch I've had in a while due to all of my food allergies! I handed my allergy card to the nice lady at the front and she showed me which items I would be able to have safely which was most of the menu. (I can't remember off had which items I couldn't) Allergies: gluten and gluten containing grains, soy, peanut, Tree nut except for coconut, sulfate, msg. The potato was cooked perfectly as was the broccoli and mushrooms. The shrimp was chef kiss perfect texture and the seasoning sent me back to my childhood family get togethers on my sister's side of the family. If you have not been , you have to try it out next time you are by/at Daytona Tanger Outlet“

“the atmosphere is relaxing and reminds me of a Key West vibe. the food is excellent. I had the Filet with Shrimp and my friends had the Bianca pizza and Wagyu Short ribs. Definitely would recommend this place ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The Spott never disappoints with the quality of both the food and the service. On my last visit, the black drum caught locally in Ponce Inlet exceed my previous favorite of lion fish. Their filet is one of the best in town. Whether you are enjoying the “speak easy secrets” atmosphere upstairs for a pre-dinner drink or the vibrant energy of the dining room, it is always on point. The only thing that would improve it would be to expand, add live music and a classy place to dance.“

“Malibu Beach Grill is hands down one of the best dining experiences you’ll find on the coast. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, upscale-yet-relaxed atmosphere that sets the tone for an unforgettable night. The food is consistently top-notch — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re craving seafood, steak, or something seasonal, they nail it every time.

But the real gem of this place? Emily. She’s not just a bartender — she’s the bartender. Her cocktails are creative, perfectly balanced, and made with true craft. Whether you’re ordering a classic or something off the menu, she pours passion into every glass. Beyond her mixology skills, she’s friendly, attentive, and makes you feel like a regular, even if it’s your first visit.

Malibu Beach Grill has it all — ambiance, flavor, service — and thanks to Emily, the best bar experience in town. Can’t recommend it enough!“

“Love this place“

“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.“

“Tried this for my teens birthday with family.. Good buffet overall. Not too busy, pretty good selection. Unfortunately, there were few items that didn't have sugar, sauce, or were deep fried. Very nice dining staff, however the Sunday hostess was very unwelcoming and seemed resentful. Clean bathroom. Nice crowd, very family oriented a bit pricey but okay for once in a while. The soup selection was a bit limited. Happy overall, will return!“

“Our server Cole was amazing and the meal was outstanding. We loved the presentation and the food was exceptional. The ambiance was cool and careful attention was given by the staff to the diners, service, and the food. While certainly return.“

“Best.Omelette.Ever! The breakfast buffet is very good with a lot of great options, but the omelette station and the gentlemen making omelettes on 7/31/24 was hands-down the best we have ever had.
