Favorite restaurant in Daytona

[gomer pyle]

My wife, son, and I are in Daytona for a couple of days after leaving Disney. Does anyone have any recommendations for some good seafood restaurants? We are trying Aunt Catfishes tonight.

I can't help you with dinner(wrong coast) but for lunch one day, go to Publix grocery store and get your favorite hoagie, sub, sandwich or whatever you like to call your deli meat on a roll. Trust me, they are well worth getting, especially if you like Italian style hoagies from NE area of the states. Even if you don't want to go out out for dinner one of your nights there, would make a good bring back to room for dinner also...

I have spent a lot of time there over the years. I highly recommend a basa sandwich from Boondocks in Port Orange. Charlie Horse in Daytona has some really good grilled wings.

Our Deck Down Under; http://www.ourdeckdu.com/ Its located on the inter-coastal waterway under the bridge at South Daytona

 

Boondocks; http://boondocks-restaurant.com/ located in Wilbur by the Sea, 

 

Both of these places have really good seafood along with a laid back atmosphere.

 

Stop and see the lighthouse and museum at Ponce Inlet; http://ponceinlet.org/

 

All these places are located in the same general area on the South end of Daytona. If you run A1A south out of Daytona the lighthouse is at the end of the road at Ponce Inlet.

I wish I could give you some tips, but I don't think most of the places I went to are still around.  I lived in Daytona for college 20 years ago.  There was a place called Booth's Bowery though that used to have awesome wings.  Not sure if they are still there and if it is still any good, but may be worth a look if your in the mood.  They were on South Nova Rd in Port Orange.

Still there and still excellent food!!! Edited September 24, 2015 by Hydor

Booths Bowery is still there, but it seems like every year it gets a little less attractive and accommodating. I found some pretty bad reviews online recently so was a little hesitate about recommending. Our Bar Down Under is almost in the same boat; I can't say it is what it used to be. North Turn, Aunt Catfish's, and Inlet Harbor are very popular and decent but not worth the usual wait. I would not recommend JB's Fish Camp as it very overrated, but Norwoods is great dining and very reasonably priced. Both of these are in New Smyrna. .

I forgot about Norwoods, we went there back in June, it was real good. I haven't been to Aunt Catfish's, it always seems really crowded.

 

Crabby Joes on the Sunglow pier is good also, it's in South Daytona; http://www.sunglowpier.com/

 

We have been going to Wilbur by the Sea on vacation for the last few years.

Down the Hatch Seafood Restaurant
4894 Front Street, Ponce Inlet, FL 32127

When we go I always have to eat there twice, usually hit aunt catfishes one night too

[gomer pyle]

Thanks for all the responses, it's kinda odd how hidden all the seafood restaurants are. We see a pizza joint every other building.
We have been to Aunt Catfishes, Our Deck, and Norwoods so far. All were good but I'll have to say Aunt Catfishes is definitely our favorite so far.

Only thing about restaurants too is that they always have a chance of having a bad night. It takes one employee to be in a bad mood or just be having a bad night that can ruin it for all. Many other equations too but hopefully you don't run into any of this and if you do, remember, don't kill the messenger...  :usa:
