    Very fun place to eat. You can eat inside or outside which a lot of people prefer to eat is outside. I decided to try one of their famous pizza the lamb Bam, is was very good and so worth the $18.00. There's a lot of great choices in this menu but I would try one of their pizzas. Sundays they have bottomless mimosas which I will be back for. Service was very friendly, and the food did not take a very long time to come out. If your in ormond swing by and try it out!

    Excellent pmace to grab brunch pm Sundays. It never disappoints. Get there when they open though. It fills up very fast

    Stairway to Heaven

    This is a pretty cool restaurant/tiki bar to visit! We sat on the patio near the live music. It was a very cool atmosphere. Guitarist was playing good music that fit the vibe of the patio. The only dilemma was the large amount of flies which got a little annoying. Drinks were good, they have specials every day on certain drinks or liquors. I got the hurricane and it tasted strong and refreshing! Server was kind and very attentive! For the food, everything is named after famous songs. We ordered the Running Down a Dream (portobello fries) which was a very unique and shareable appetizer. The Starway to Heaven is a supreme pizza which was pretty standard as far as flatbread pizzas are concerned. The Can't Stop Loving You is a Mahi BLT which I chose to get as a wrap (alternate option is sandwich bread) and it was good but a little heavy on the sauce. Overall this was a really cool place to visit when you are in Ormond Beach and looking for a casual, costal dining experience!

    Pizza baked on cardboard.

    Not great. The first time we were here, we had a very enjoyable experience. Tonight we ordered pizza, which was apparently baked on the card board it was frozen on and burnt on one side. I asked for salt. I grabbed the grinder, flipped it over and it was full of liquid. It ruined my spinach dip! The server apologized and brought another salt grinder. I asked her to take my appetizer plate since it now had some kind of liquid mixed with the dip. I assumed it was water, but from where? Gross. I know a place can't be a 100% all the time, but I expected a little more accommodation when there were obvious issues. Yes, I ate the burnt pizza.

    Outdoor seating with tiki's

    My husband and I wanted to try out Grind Gastropub. They have great outdoor seating, a beautiful atmosphere to look at! Our server Hannah took our drink order which was margaritas. When she returned we placed our dinner orders, my husband ordered the bison burger with fries. I ordered the fish and chips but substituted onion rings instead of the chips. My fish and onion rings were delicious. The fish was very crispy and moist. My husband said his bison burger was ok, the burger itself didn't have much seasoning and no sear on it but he loved the fries. The margaritas were on point too. We will definitely be back.

    Grind is the go-to place to hang out in Ormond Beach. You can opt for the smaller front part of the restaurant and grab one of their outstanding pizzas and a beer. Or you can go to the tiki bar out back which is wide open with live music and the best outdoor bar in town. Did I mention the pizza? Yes but I'll go on. It is light and flaky with an outstanding crunch. I can hear Dave portnoy complimenting the undercarriage! The size is just slightly more than you should eat as an individual but you're going to do it anyway. Very reasonable prices and a great place to bring a large group.

    After leaving a tournament at Pictona in Holly Hills our party of 6 were pretty hungry. We stopped in at Grind based on their Yelp reviews & their website. I would not call this a Gastro pub. It's a bar with some decent food. On entering we saw a sign that said seat yourself. There is a large bar which had several what looked like to be locals sitting around and some TV screens visible from the bar. The wall is lined with a big red booth however there are only 3/4 tables. We put two tables together since they were able to only accommodate four. It took a while for someone to come over after we received our menus. I noticed it was the bar maid. Apparently, she waits the tables AND the bar. We ordered a round of drinks to start. There were some interesting items on the menu with some kitch names. A friend & I decided to order the Thai pizza to share. It came out on a wooden pizza paddle & looked promising however it was not good. I can only describe it as a round flat bread with what they said was Gouda cheese ( didn't taste like it) chicken ( couldn't see it) peanut butter on the bottom & some veggie. Just not a good combo of flavors. We both agreed we didn't care for it and left several slices over. Everything else our group ordered was good from meatloaf to a brisket sandwich to onion rings. The burger that came out was quite large and got two thumbs up. Street parking can be hazardous as we found out leaving the restaurant. Someone had hit our mirror and completely knocked off our mirror so do yourself a favor if you go here & park around back off of the street.

We came for lunch and honestly didn't want to leave. Our server Brooke was the kind of person who makes a restaurant great. Attentive, upbeat, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. She had great energy and made our whole group feel taken care of without ever being intrusive. Ask for her if you can. The food was outstanding. We ordered the ahi tuna pizza -- a crispy flatbread topped with fresh raw tuna, avocado, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of spicy aioli and teriyaki glaze. It was stunning to look at and even better to eat. The blackened fish sandwich came loaded with fresh toppings and paired perfectly with the golden fries. The grilled chicken tacos were generous and well-seasoned with a mango salsa on the side that really popped. We also got the coconut shrimp -- beautifully fried with a honey mustard dipping sauce -- and our little one loved the chicken bites and fries. Don't skip the gator bites either -- a true Florida experience, perfectly crispy and served with a honey mustard that kept us reaching for more. Everything tasted fresh, like it came straight off the boat. We toasted the afternoon with margaritas on the rocks and honestly couldn't imagine a better setting -- salt-rimmed cups, ocean breeze, the sound of waves just a few feet away. Yes, the prices are a step up, but when you factor in that you're sitting steps from the beach with food this fresh and a view like this, it's worth every penny. If you're passing through Daytona, make a point to stop in -- you won't regret it.

    5 stars for the vibes. The food is not important, this is a cool place for drinks…read more * Buffalo wings 3/5 The wings were fine. Nothing wrong, just didnt stand out. Needs to be more crispy. Im really looking for that crunch followed but dripping from the tender moist meat.
