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.

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.

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.

Buffalo Wings 3/5
Noah B.

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.

Everyone was friendly! It was a good atmosphere. Love bands both nights we were here. Food was okay, we got some appetizers and it was mediocre. Would come back for service and drinks!

Crab, mahi, shrimp Cajun style with fries instead of rice

Got the shrimp, crab and mahi with Cajun seasoning and it was so good. Around $50. Gator bites were very good but not worth the price of $17 Atmospheres and service is so good they have live music till 9pm-10pm. My favorite place yet.

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!

The view

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

Peel & eat shrimp
Ian M.

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!

Drinks galore
Tina B.

The food was really good, and the adult beverages definitely hit the spot! We really enjoyed the fun, laid-back atmosphere at Ocean Deck. Great place to relax, grab a bite, enjoy a cold drink, and soak up the beach vibes. We'll definitely be back!

Menu

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.

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.

Party bucket
Hannah H.

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.

How is variety for Gluten Free?

If you look at pictures of the menu that people have taken, you can see the gluten free options with GF next to them. Hope that helps!

Is this place kid friendly for dinner?

Yes! Our upstairs do I g area is always family friendly. Our downstairs is a 21+ bar/restaurant after 8:30.

Is this place dog friendly?

I’m sorry, we are not. VOLUSIA County considers our deck to be the beach. They do not allow animals on the beach, so we cannot accommodate pets.

Anyone know where we can find karaoke on Wednesdays in Daytona area?

They have Karaoke at the Hilton Daytona Beach Hotel during week.

Seated outside, but that was ok on the overcast day, and not hot at all (and lovely views, of course). Waitress was very good, friendly and everything got served right and well. Small tip if you are into the fruity drinks--- they had special mugs and change-color plastic glasses for extra $.....but the drink amounts in those is larger than the regular. I paid an extra buck for the color-changing class and got a bigger drink. On to the food: we had clam chowder (good taste, according to the eater), fried calamari, peel and eat shrimp, and "crabby bites." I liked the taste of the small crab cakes, but the crab cake aficionado in the group did not (she has rarely said GOOD to any crab cakes outside of Maryland!). Peel and eat shrimp was quite good-- plain, without much spice added, but bigger than the shrimp at many places around here. Key lime pie was fine; not very tart but thick texture and filling, for sure. We thought/feared it might be more 'gimmicky,' given the name, but it was a solid seafood meal, for sure. Would gladly go back, if there weren't so many other great places along the coast!

The grilled salmon was absolutely perfect--the skin was crispy while the inside was juicy and tender. The grilled vegetables were also cooked to perfection. Being able to enjoy such a delicious dinner at the hotel where we were staying made our first dinner in Daytona Beach even more special. Our server, Teresa, was especially wonderful. She knew exactly when to step in and provide helpful information without interrupting the atmosphere, and I truly feel that she helped make our evening so enjoyable. A wonderful experience from start to finish!

Since it was our first visit, I assumed we would be ordering from the menu items I had seen on…read moreYelp. We later learned that those offerings are available only during dinner service. Regrettably, our visit did not meet expectations based on previous reviews. Lunch is served exclusively outdoors and features a more limited menu. While it was a different experience than we expected, the beautiful oceanfront setting more than made up for it. Cast & Crew is inside the Renaissance Hotel. Valet parking is complimentary for up to 4 hours. The Maine Lobster BLT was generously filled with sweet, tender chunks of lobster, which was a bit under seasoned. The bacon was really tough to chew. The fries were wonderfully crispy and the perfect side. The Floral Tides was a refreshing cocktail made with gin, Eldeflower, agave, and lemon I'd love to return and experience the dinner menu to provide a more complete and balanced review.

We had chowder, raw oysters, lightly blackened mahi-mahi and peel/eat shrimp. No complaints with any. Peel/eat shrimp came with potatoes and corn, too-- nice surprise. Mahi-mahi came with tasty fries. Just a simple little place with basic menu; I guess I was hoping for a bit more variety and different dishes, this being the 3rd day of seafood fest! No complaints at all, but there are other places in the area with very good seafood, full bar, seating on the water, etc. (I thought this place could probably charge much more, being just as it is, if it were anywhere near the actual beach or waterway).
