Very busy, which was expected. We waited 35 minutes longer than we were told (1.5 hours), then waited 1.5 more hours for our food. The food was mid at best. Service was awful. We come to Daytona and port orange every year and have great experiences at every restaurant we go to, This was AWFUL. -10 stars. read more

What a wonderful spot under the bridge and on the water. To order you stand in line by the wall-sized menu and make your choices at the register, pay, give them your name and quickly the food is brought out to your table. Great seafood, broiled, blackened, grilled or deep fried. My tuna (med rare) was more on the medium side, but two delicious huge portions piled on my sandwich. I went all the way with crispy onion rings (huge stack), two hush pups and slaw (just okay slaw). We couldn't hardly tell the difference between their cocktail sauce and catsup. Also served with tarter sauce. Wait staff refill drinks and check on you regularly. I will definitely come back! This was recommended by Betty a local bartender at Boot Hill. I gladly pass along the recommendation to anyone visiting Daytona Beach Shores. read more

Food was fantastic. Team service there and it was great! Very reasonably priced food and the drinks were a great deal!

Food is great as expected, We Went for Seafood and boy Did we get Seafood There was a line, but, the Stewardess took great care of everyone and we all got seated quicklyThe waitresses, there were two, one for drinks and one for orderingThey were very helpful because the Menu was huge with all kinds offerings Well, needless to say, when we got the food, it was fabulous we will definitely be going again read more

We always have a memorable time. The spicy shrimp are always very good but this last time was a new drink of the day Banana Punch I think it was called. I'm still thinking about how good that was days later. Another of their drinks of the day was mango punch ( something like that) sooo good. They have a expert mixologist that creates these snd I've never met her but she is a national treasure. It's a great place to have large or intimate meetings. The beautiful Halifax sets the perfect atmosphere anytime whether early, late, rainy, cloudy or sunny. I love this place!!! read more

The place looks terrific. On the water and it appears it has been updated. The food is another story. Scallops had very little taste and a small salad. The shrimp was squeezed to make it look larger and the shrimp sauce needed a lot of help. This was our first time back in a lot of years. Now I know why!!!! read more

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner while we've been camping for the Labor Day weekend. Their blackened mahi mahi dinner was delicious and so was their slaw and conch fritters. Service was excellent. They had someone always checking in on us for our drinks. When we were trying to leave, our waitress rang up my margarita at the wrong price but she was able to fix it. Took a while for us to get our card back so we can leave but when we were leaving, place was getting busier. Glad we got there around 4:30 or so to eat. Place gets packed for dinner hour. We did sit out by the water but was getting a little to warm for me so we were able to move to a different table with no issues. read more

Best fish sandwiches, shrimp and seafood. The setting is very casual...beach attire is fine. Quality of food and quantity are great! Full bar, and buckets of beer available! read more

We were cruising the intra coastal and stopped in for drinks and snacks. Lots of dock space. You order at the counter and then find a table. Lots of water side tables from which to choose. Food we tried was pretty good. Onion rings, conch fritters and key lime pie. Service was really good and all the employees were friendly. read more

What a joke, this owner is missing the boat He forces people to order upon entering creates a long line out the door, people leave Mean while empty tables. The delay to wait for 20-30 people to all figure out what they want to eat one by one is absolutely nuts. We found a much better place across the way read more

We come here for the ambiance and the food and the combination can be a beautiful thing. This trip was no different. We both ordered good old fashioned grilled cheese sandwiches, adding tomato to them, along with fries and pups, and onion rings and pups. Unfortunately they gave us both fries. But it's ok, I like their fries too so no big deal. Food came out fast and the scenery is relaxing on the water. We love this place. read more

First time trying this place. To begin, location is great; right on the water. You can watch all type of boats and sea life go by as u enjoy your meal. Now the food. Fried shrimp was great, genuinely some of the best I've had in the area. Great crisp and fresh shrimp. The grouper fingers however I could have done without. Over cooked and lacking a the flavorful depth the shrimp possessed. The hush puppies were not to bad either. Once again fried perfectly, I prefer my hush puppies with a little more texture within, but that's just my preference. The hush puppies were still delicious. read more

Love this place, thank you Yelp for helping us find this terrific spot. We went as a family of 7 (3 boys 5 and under) and enjoyed the food, the view and our time together. You go up and order, grab a table and the food comes shortly. If you're able to get a table on the south side, you'll have the best view with no bridge in sight (not the bridge is a terrible sight), but you get your best water views on the south side of the building. Plenty of outdoor seating and plenty of indoor seating. The weather was nice so all the windows from inside where open to the water. Very very pleasant and relaxing place. I'm not a huge seafood fan so most of the time I get clam strips, but these were very good, the serving was huge and the taste was full. Also the Ahi Tuna is amazing and their cheese grits is a terrific side to any meal. We also really enjoyed the local craft beer Dayton Beach Brewing Company (Driver's 8), it's a Kristalweizen Ale with Blood Orange juice infused into it, which leads to a light and refreshing taste. It was perfect for a calm and comfortable spring evening on the inter-coastal waterway. Plenty of choices for the kids and the menu they offer, all in all it's a great location, with great food and a relaxing enjoying environment. It did take a little while longer to get the food once ordered, but when you're by the water on a gorgeous night like we had, it wasn't a problem. read more

Lunch here today. We noticed yesterday they were busy so had to stop. We were able to grab a spot on the deck to enjoy the weather. The deck is under shade but it was windy so a bite chilly. We ordered the deck burger with everything and onion rings and hush puppies. I had the fish & crab cake sandwich with bacon cheesy grits and pups. All very good. We got a 1/2# peel/eat shrimp free with $25 cash purchase. Good deal. Overall good place but I'd say average. Mostly seafood which I enjoy, but not a lot of options if someone in your group doesn't like seafood. Service was ok. Didn't care you have to order at the counter then find a seat and they bring your food. Seen this a few times in the area. Different for me I guess. I would come back but I think there are better choices in the area. read more

Disappointingly cheap. I don't mean cheap price-wise... we spent $50 on two meals. I think I was surprised by the complete lack of anything that could make this place worth the money. Plastic knives in your burgers, basic plastic trays with every meal and styrofoam cups instead of glasses, don't get me started on the soup in a foam bowl or the salad in the to-go container. The service was great, but I now understand what people mean when they say that can taste when food is frozen. It is just upsetting to see a place with potential serving low quality food in even lower quality to-go cups for on obviously high price. I'm not even sure what was worth the $17 for a chicken Caesar salad cuz I don't even think it was worth the plastic tray it came out on read more

Deck Down Over IT In Covid times we expected small businesses to want our business but she (owner) didn't seem to care and we aren't tourists. We are consistent locals that love our weekend "spots".... we Decided to shake it up and try this spot. We will never be back. More of my typical review style below.... Vegetarian heads up: there's nothing on the menu that is vegetarian and cooked in separate oil. (But we are use to that.... and enjoy social activity's with our meat loving buddies.... and usually have to get crafty in the food dept....) This post is for the folks who have dietary diversity in their group and like nice people. The worst experiences deserve a full story..... After an afternoon of jet skiing our party of 6 decided on docking at Deck Down Over IT. 2 meaty men, 1 allergy prone lovely lady, 1 vegetarian and 2 teenagers. A lot to accommodate. The lovely lady and I headed over to Jimmy Hulas to get food to go that accommodated our dietary restrictions. We brought it back to DDOI and the rest of our party was just being seated. We set down with our food wrapped up in the bag and the waitress began to take orders. The boys ordered Booze and appetizers, along with the teenage Shirley temples. Everyone was happy for a moment. Then, it started to get aggressive. Largely, because... the lovely lady and I had our own food to go and just finished my first HIGH NOON. If you know, you know I politely asked (almost jokingly) if it's fine if we eat our food here because i'm a vegetarian. She got very upset, flustered and borderline lost it and said we couldn't do that. Then, got Karen (probably her name) the owner. Who proceeded to tell us this was not a picnic, we could not eat food we weren't allergic to and we needed to leave. Mind you, it was still in the bag and the other people would have gladly ordered their food to go and we could have made an alternative plan. A compromise should have occurred and a conversation could have been had. We left. Buttttt On our way out..... I thought... "NO KAREN HAVING A BAD DAY IS GOING TO RUIN THIS TEACHERS' last day of summer" so.... I threw a couple bucks into the claw games. Not a winner. No dinner dinner. No picnic for you! No food for you! No compromise for you! No claw game, last hoorah prize for you either! read more

Nice place...got a table right on the water. Staff was super friendly and helpful (as we were under a time crunch). My tuna was a bit dry but everyone else enjoyed their food. In their defense, i like my tuna almost raw (in the middle) so most restaurants won't serve it that way. A tasty sauce would have helped (I don't like tartar sauce). I would definitely go back but just get something else to eat. read more

The view is fantastic but the food is not unless you like everything fried . Service is good but def do not like the food.

interesting location with both indoor and outdoor seating options. when i arrived, there wasn't much of a line but the restaurant itself was very busy. we were able to be seated right away, and i thought the service was pretty quick for how crowded the restaurant got as we were eating. i ordered the 1/2 lb crab and 1/2 lb seasoned shrimp platter. the crab was large and fairly easy to handle; the shrimp was well-seasoned (delightfully spiced) and there was a bottle of cocktail sauce on the table. i thought the portion was good and my food tasted fresh! the place is definitely on the louder side, but not overly loud for the type of establishment. there wasn't any blaring music or obnoxious sound. i would recommend eating here for the fresh seafood and lovely view. note: the buns are not dairy free! staff was very helpful with allergy-related questions read more

Our Deck Down Under - Blackened scallops, rings, a couple of hush puppies and a side of slaw...nice recommendation! - Seafood Near Me - Port Orange, Florida

What a nice experience sitting out on the deck by the river to enjoy a dozen raw oysters with a burger. The oysters were cold a fresh with a tangy cocktails sauce. The burger was full of favor and cooked to protection at a medium well. The highlight of the restaurant had to be the view of the river and the prompt service by the staff. This is a spot you must go and see if you're in Port Orange Florida for the weekend or vacation. Very family friendly. read more

We stopped for a drink near the water and were surprised when we paid in cash to receive steamed shrimp as a bonus. Good drinks and great atmosphere near the water. read more

We had a long wait, 40 minutes, so we thought it must be a good place. I had the fried scallops which were decent but nothing special. My wife had a grilled chicken sandwich which was horrible and inedible. My son had blackened fish which he said was ok. I guess I expected more with the wait. The prices are on the cheaper side but the food comes out in plastic baskets with cheap plastic silverware that doesn't even cut. If you are looking for average, this place won't disappoint. I won't go back. read more

Great atmosphere. Very attentive and friendly staff all around. Enjoyed a variety of apps and dinners. All top notch. Jalapeño bacon cheese grits are delish!! Will stop back again when in the area. read more

We went on a Monday at 5:30 p.m. and it was packed. The food was ok but they really rushed us through to get us out fast. We ordered margaritas and got to take about 2 sips before they brought our food - about 4 minutes after we ordered it. Fast food is ok at McDonalds but not when you want to enjoy a nice dinner out on the deck. There was a long waiting line when we left (we were only there about half an hour total). So their business model seems to be to rush as many people as they can through as fast as they can. Probably won't go back - nothing special about it. read more

Yuck! Ordered fish and shrimp. I received three (3) super floured shrimp, a paper thin piece of fish with extra flour and about the amount of two big potatoes of french fries. Not even the hush puppies were good. Never again! read more

My buddy posted some food on Facebook from this little nook, and I was very interested in trying it, but I live in Charlotte, NC. Well, G-d gives you the desire of your heart! As it would come to pass I'd have to drive to West Palm to do some work, so on the way back my Boss and I swang down to ODDU. And let me tell you something we did not regret it! It was a little odd Ordering, we had to wait in a small line, but it moved quite quickly. When we got to the front and made our order the woman was very courteous and jovial. We then sat down. Now there was no air-conditioning in the restaurant apart from the bathroom, but we just found a decenct looking seat over looking the inland waterway and there were plenty of fans. My boss ordered the crab trap, he said it was unbelievably delicious. On top of that he got some jalapeño poppers. He said he liked them I tried one and they're just happen to be no jalapeño in it so I was kind of bummed about that. I had the clam chowder for my appetizer. It was good I wouldn't say it was great but, then came my meal. I had ordered a fried seafood platter, which was very reasonably priced and they gave me scallops, shrimp, plenty of clam strips and two huge pieces of fish it was also coupled with awesome slaw and hush puppies! We had both ordered unsweetened iced tea and it was amazing! She was really good too very attentive. I had also ordered a Keylime pie and it was pretty good! Was almost rock solid frozen, but it was still decent. I asked if they made their own and they said no but they do get it from a local bakery. Overall I love this place, and both my boss and I will definitely be back when we're back this way! I really believe it's more for the locals, and that's where I like to go I like to go with a local eat not where the tourists go. ODDU is a neat little secret place right almost under the bridge. It has a great view of the intercoastal waterway to. You can sit in or outside. It wasn't that busy when we were there but it definitely was not empty. read more
