    Grilled Salmon Ceasar salad
    Keith H.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    I love this spot! Always a good time. Definitely a staple when we come to Daytona. Good food, a tentative and friendly staff, & overall fun environment!

    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!

    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.

    Pleasant on the water in Daytona Bea fun place to each . Ordered shrimp, shrimp ,shrimp platter . The ocean view was beautiful even with the bad weather. Great portions. Our waitress was warm friendly and went out of her place to please us

    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.

    Blackened Fish Tacos
    Laura M.

    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!

    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.

    The Ocean Decker Burger.
    Edward P.

    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.

    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.

    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.

They hand out flyers saying you get a free classic burger with your first $10 purchase. When we showed the flyer, the employee told us we needed to create a rewards account -- which isn't a big deal it takes 5 minutes max to sign up -- but then insisted we not sign up right then and there, as if she didn't want to wait, even though the restaurant was completely empty. She also told us the reward would take days to show up. We went ahead and paid, but while sitting down I finished signing up anyway... and surprise: the reward appeared immediately at checkout. Meaning we could've used it right then, despite being told otherwise. I don't need the free burger, but the misinformation and weird marketing tactic felt shady. If you're going to advertise a promo, it should be clear and honest. Great food, but not a great first impression in terms of transparency. And honestly, I might have expected this kind of rushed, dismissive behavior if the restaurant had been packed -- but it was completely empty. That should've been the perfect opportunity to give good service, create a lasting returning customer, and not cut corners. I would've happily come back after trying the food itself. But after this experience, I can't see myself returning unless the situation is acknowledged and fixed -- because great food doesn't matter if the customer can't trust the business.
