It's to be said this is the best local seafood restaurant of Daytona Beach Shores. It also has unlimited southern sides and cinnamon rolls. Yummy.
Located on the Southwest side of the Dunlawton bridge on the Halifax River.
Very well known as there is always a line outside. You can call ahead up to one hour in advance for a table. Go early if not as it is hugely popular.
Highly recommend.
