Wife and i were first time visitors. Food and service was excellent. We sat outside on the deck, beach side, which was a beautiful atmosphere on a wonderful evening. My wife had blackened Maui Maui - prepared just as it should and I had a chicken quesadillas - both excellent. We will be back read more

Five Stars for Ocean Deck Bar & Restaurant! This place is simply the best!!! I do not give five-star reviews easily, but everything came together so well at Ocean Deck that they earned every one of them. I don't even know where to start except with FUN!! You have choices depending on your mood. Want to cool off and enjoy dinner in the A/C? You can. Want more of a party? Head downstairs for karaoke or live music, where dancing customers are completely normal and part of the fun. The staff was incredibly helpful, friendly, attentive, and funny. Our food came out so fast that I was honestly a little nervous--but NOPE. Perfecto! I didn't get a picture of the blackened mahi-mahi sandwich, but it was SO good. The salmon was cooked perfectly without being overdone. The fries are to die for, and those tacos? If I lived nearby, they would easily be a once-a-week meal for me. The drinks were wonderful, too. The Moscato was fresh, bubbly, and ice cold--exactly how it should be. We enjoyed this place so much that we went back three times during our short stay. The food, drinks, atmosphere, service, and just plain fun of the place all came together. That's what earns five stars from me. read more

Great service and super cool beach vibe at the Ocean Deck. It's definitely worth the trip if you're in the mood for a Florida beach spot to have a bite. Food was just ok and too much fried food for my liking. Very small portions for the price. We did like the overall experience and would come back. read more

Wanna have a good time ? Wanna get good strong drinks with a view and delicious food? Come down to ocean deck! I've been here twice already and loved it. Our waiter was very attentive and the drinks came quick as did the food on a Sunday before Memorial Day. The vibes are also on point. Kareoke starts at 2pm every Saturday and Sunday. read more

I chose the grilled salmon Ceasar salad for dinner with a cup of New England Chowder as well. Also tried the smoked fish dip, crispy tortilla chips to help scoop up the dip. Flavor was not bad. As for the salad, Ceasar dressing with fresh looking romaine lettuce was great. The grilled salmon had nice grill marks but the flavor was flat. No real taste or seasoning on this piece of fish. Sorry but not liking this order. Then on top of that the service was lacking. Three times I had to wave down our server to get refills of drinks. Three to many times. Sadly the server for the next table over did more for us than our server. Cool Place though, right on the beach and some ok live music. read more

If you're looking for a spot that checks every box -- incredible views, fresh food, and a server who makes the whole experience -- Ocean Deck is it. 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. read more

5 stars for the vibes. The food is not important, this is a cool place for drinks. * 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. read more

The restaurant is busy and located right on Daytona Beach with great views of the Atlantic Ocean. They play a lot of reggae music giving it a lively beach feel. Full bar but more selection of well drinks than top shelf stuff. Apparently a bar downstairs as well, although we stayed upstairs as it was a rainy drizzly afternoon. We enjoyed our meal and drinks and got some dessert to-go. Not a bad place to stop in for a bite if in the area! read more

Delicious! Gram's recommendations are AMAZING! Came in on a Thursday night very late and as I walked into the downstairs area I was immediately serenaded by the lovely saxophone and dance moves of a live musician and band, jamming over "play that funky music". It's clearly a spot for locals, karaoke vibes with the live band, and lots of dancing. I grabbed a table in the back since I wasn't looking for much interaction, just some food. Kitchen does last call at 12:30am. Gram quickly noticed me and came over to make some recommendations. I did the fish sandwich he recommended and also the shrimp plate. I was absolutely shocked at how delicious everything was! Well balanced, tasty green beans before the shrimp, and well seasoned on a bed of rice. The sandwich didn't get soggy at all but the fish was very moist, and the tartar sauce on the side was perfect for a dab here or there. The fries were okay but after the first few bites they got cold and unappetizing. After, Gram asked if I wanted the check and I said no, I want the menu! I went for another round of the shrimp plate and I barely resisted the key lime pie--perhaps next time. Great vibes, top notch service from Gram, and three delightful protein filled plates for my satisfaction--what an incredible late night find! read more

Food was half assed, maybe throw away not so fresh seafood? Perhaps make the wings as they r advertised? ..cocktails good...

They are proudly rated #1 on ChatGPT for the best experience in Daytona Beach, and they truly live up to that reputation! The interior and exterior feature charming, eclectic designs that truly catch the eye. The drink menu offers a wonderful variety of options, and some cups even come with fun souvenirs. For seating, there's a cozy top-level area with excellent air conditioning and breathtaking views of the beach, as well as an inviting open-air bottom area with beautiful scenery and easy beach access. Parking costs $20 but is reimbursed with a $20 food and beverage credit, making it super delicious to order a seafood platter with crab legs, shrimp, and blackened Maui shrimp--such a generous portion for the price. Our server was so attentive, making sure our drinks were refilled and requests taken care of quickly, and highly recommended for a great vibe and good times. read more

Very disappointed with our experience at Ocean Deck. My daughter has Type 1 diabetes, and we brought food for her because of her medical needs. An employee told us she could not eat it because it was a "health code violation." That is not accurate. I have reviewed Florida's food-safety regulations and cannot find a provision that makes it a health-code violation for a customer to bring medically necessary food. More importantly, diabetes is protected as a disability under the ADA, and restaurants are required to consider reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities. This was not about bringing outside food for convenience--it was about my child being able to safely manage her medical condition. She should never have been made to feel singled out or like her disability was a problem. Also, notice the sign at the front of their establishment. "Lunch tastes better barefoot". How is this not a health code violation but my daughter's diabetes is? I hope Ocean Deck provides better staff training on disabilities and reasonable accommodations. read more

I haven't been to this restaurant in a few years three decided at least the quality of the food has considerably declined. The service is still good. I do believe that they have neglected the place, and the quality of the food is terrible would not recommend will not return. read more

On Saturday, I went to The Ocean Deck Restaurant and Beach Bar. This is one of my go-to spots. I usually come here about once a month to enjoy lunch by the beach while listening to locals sing karaoke. Everyone is always so supportive, whether someone can sing or not, which makes the whole experience even more fun. The drinks are always great, and the vibe is just perfect. As for the food, we always order the wings and fries, they're that good! I've never felt the need to try anything else because the wings hit every time. The best part, though, is that as soon as you step out, you have direct access to the beach. There's nothing better than finishing a meal and walking straight onto the sand. read more

This was recommended to us by our Uber driver. It has signs that it's the #1 beach bar. We sat outside on the little deck to enjoy the sunset. There was live music that they piped to the outside as well. Food was just ok. I had coconut shrimp. The main draw was the party buckets of drinks. A great deal to share with one or two other people. Wasn't very strong but was tasty. We only went inside to use the restroom before leaving and it is very much a dive bar. Us three girls felt a little unsafe as we were leered at by a lot of the patrons. Would go back for the drinks and outside seating but just know what you are getting yourself into. read more

Awful over priced food, $5.00 for parking and another tourist trap! I could not believe how terrible this place was ... I would give 0 stars but it's not an option!!! Avoid this hole in the wall! I should have went to McDonald's!$ 100.00 for food that was almost unfit for human consumption! read more

When we walked in there was an open table with ocean view and asked the hostess. She took us instead told sit at a disheveled dirty, sticky table crunched in the center of the room. A minute after we arrived a party of 2 were behind us, no reservation and she sat them at the better clean table with the ocean view. The decor hangin from the ceiling had dust catapillars. We ordered smoke fish dip and the Mahi sandwich with fries. The smoked fish dip tasted way off and gross so we did not eat it. The mahi was dry and not fresh. The only decent part of the restaurant was our waitress was nice. She saw we didn't eat our food and took items off the bill and apologized. Better off going to Crabby Joe's next time maybe agggg eww. read more

Went to eat with my family last night, we are from out of town so we were excited to eat at this place especially for the views. Well it was extremely cold in there for no reason what so ever, our food was cold, they started closing blinds before our dinner even came. The food is overly priced for not even being decent. More bang for your buck and better food I would go somewhere else. read more

Did a day trip to Daytona trip with two other girlfriends and decided to stop at Ocean Deck for lunch. It was a perfect day to sit outside and see the beach goers. Our waitress was super nice and very attentive even though the place was getting packed. The food was pretty good. We ordered apps and salad for our lunch! Portions were good. Every dish hit the spot for us! Salad was nothing special, but the seasoning on the shrimp was good, the grouper bites were fried perfectly (not dried at all), and the shrimp quesadillas was the best out of the three. The shrimp was season welled and the sauce on top was so good. The keylime pie was refreshingly delicious! Not overly sweet at all. read more

We met friends here earlier this week, for drinks, and a later lunch. We sat in the downstairs/beach access area - you can easily walk out to the beach, feel the warm breeze, and hear the ocean. A few minutes after sitting down, we also noticed there was live music inside on the stage, which was really fun. Our server came over and took our drink order (I started with a margarita), which wasn't bad, little on the sweeter side, but what I would expect at a beach bar. For lunch, I had the fish tacos, which came with grilled fish, in flour tortillas covered with lettuce, tomatoes, shredded cheese, and fresh mango salsa on the side. There was also island rice as a side, and rasta ranch sour cream that was also on the side, and great for adding to the tacos. Highly recommend the tacos - they came three to a plate, and I was very full without finishing the entire plate. They were also very flavorful/tasty. We will likely be back again next year! read more

Family and I came to the beach and stayed most of the day. We parked in a nearby parking lot and were given a $5 discount on food to Ocean Deck. Ocean Deck is right on the beach and the food is better than expected. We ordered two yacht clubs. These sandwiches are triple decker with fresh tomatoes and turkey. Very delicious and very filling. The fries were good as well. Good spot and not overly priced if you're on the beach. read more

I love ocean deck every time I have friends come visit me from Denver. They insist on going the ocean deck that our friends have told them about. The food is great. The service is great. You walk right off of the patio into the beach and the Atlantic you view it as you're eating if you'd like very scenic very friendly. They have bands that play music. It's just awesome. read more

This was our 2nd time here. First time was a year or two ago and we dined downstairs in the open beach area. It's loud and fun and crazy. This time we ate upstairs at the bar. Seems way more calm and family friendly. The bartender was super fast and friendly and served delicious drinks. Hubby ate the blackened mahi sandwich and loved it . Fries were great too. I had the Caesar salad - fresh crisp romaine and plenty of shredded Parmesan cheese, dressing was amazing- nice crunchy croutons with grilled chicken. My only complaint was that the chicken (I asked for it Rasta style) didn't come with the Rasta sauce on it- it was on the side which is fine but I thought it would be tossed in it. The chicken was so rubbery I felt like I was chewing forever. I spit out a few pieces into my napkin and just didn't eat 3/4 of the whole salad. I think as long as you don't get chicken you'll be fine here. Dissatisfied with my dinner but like I said drinks and service and view of the beach were nice. I would only come back for drinks and maybe some fries and of course beach vibes read more

I think I had the greatest burger of my life here. The ocean deck burger is insane. And for $25 it's totally worth it. So much meat and vegetables and cheese all on one burger. I think the burger had ham, bacon and beef on it plus pickles, lettuce, tomato, and grilled onions AND cheese. If I come back to Daytona Beach, I will definitely be going here again. read more

Found two amazing restaurants on this trip to Florida and this was one of them. Was here Wednesday night of Bike Week 2025. Walked down here around 8pm from the Hilton nearby, don't stay there it's awful, and was able to sit at the bar with no wait. In fact we were the first to sit at the bar but it slowly filled in as we dined. The Yelp reviews said that the blackened mahi tacos were amazing but I couldn't find them on the dinner menu. They are on the lunch menu and they are happy to serve you from the lunch menu at dinner time so if you're looking for some items mentioned in reviews, ask for the other menu! Speaking of the blackened mahi fish tacos they were absolutely amazing and the mango chutney paired so well. But the star of the show was the gator bites! Get the friggin gator bites, I would get two order next time as my dinner. They were lightly fried, juicier than a chicken finger, and paired so well with the honey mustard. The fries were pretty good and the drink pours were big! Ask for Marianne as she was an amazing bartender and server. The ambiance is really cool. We couldn't see the ocean but we could see kids running on the beach. They have two all genders bathrooms, one close to the bar and the other by the door. Funny story people accidentally lock the door when they exit so if you're waiting and don't see anyone, ask the bartenders to check...they did in our circumstance and it was locked with no one inside! read more

The wait was 30-40 minutes, "maybe more, maybe less" according to the hostess. 40 minutes was spot on. The waitress we had was fabulous, friendly, and attentive. I got the Castaway Combo (mahi mahi, shrimp, and crab legs with island rice). It was okay. The mahi mahi had no flavor. I probably won't go back just because it's $30 to park and not worth it. read more

We come here whenever we are in the area. I've been coming here from literally 40 years and they never disappoint. We happened to catch them on a Sunday afternoon in time for their karaoke afternoon. It had been raining so it was packed out, and people were having a grand old time. Our friend, that that has lived in Florida almost all his life had never been to Ocean Deck. So of course we had to share our favorite Beach bar. And come to find out are nationally ranked as number one now! Yay! His test of any beach bar is their grouper or mahi sandwich... He said it was cooked perfectly, although it would have been nice to have been able to get the bun toasted, and the french fries did not have a coating were thin, but not shoestrings. We got the crispy tuna which is our favorite appetizer. Used to be called tuna nachos and I think people couldn't wrap their hand around the fact that it Is not a pile of chips. Our waitress was nice and knowledgeable and very efficient. Kitchen was quick. read more
