Get the extra blackened pangassi fish sandwich or the fried buffalo shrimp basket — honestly, get both and split them.

Start with the oysters. Then anything fried or blackened — seafood or chicken. Great waterfront spot, works any time of year.

Fish tacos extra blackened, and the spinach dip is better than you'd expect. Good place to bring a group.

Open air waterfront tiki bar. Fish sandwiches and fried baskets are the move. Casual, easy, fun.

Best fried seafood in Daytona, and honestly the best hush puppies in Florida. Cajun waterfront spot most people don't know about. Worth finding.

My Uncle Patrick's favorite — and he has good taste. Oceanfront, casual, strong wings and burgers, one of the better water views in Daytona.

Where I start most mornings. Order the breakfast special.

Local, no frills, excellent pancakes. That's really all you need.

Get the waffles. Good spot for a slow morning.

Cash only, no exceptions. Breakfast sandwich is excellent. Very old Daytona — go for the experience as much as the food.

You already know.

Strong burger, excellent pretzels, and the Reuben is underrated.

Local sports bar. Solid burger, good potato skins, wings worth ordering on their own.

Good burger, but the black bean soup might be the better reason to go.

Sit on the lower level for the water views. Good for burgers and shared plates.

Better burgers than you'd expect for a waterfront tiki bar. Casual and good.

Carne asada tacos are the reason to go. Chips, salsa, and rice are all strong — don't rush through them.

Great tacos and the cheese dip alone is worth stopping for.

Personal favorite. Ask to sit to the right, away from the hibachi show — the food is the reason you're there.

Small, local, well priced. First choice for sushi — the hibachi is equally good.

Really good Thai. Pad Thai is the anchor, but ask for the ginger sauce from the salmon dish on the side — they'll do it. Poke a hole in the spring rolls before eating or they'll get you.

Delivery Chinese that actually delivers. DBR guests can walk right across and pick it up — hard to beat.

Solid Greek spot. The gyros are the standout.

Worth the short drive to Ormond. Good, consistent Greek food.

Best Italian in Daytona, no debate. The fettuccine is outstanding, pizza is excellent, and the house Caesar is the best I've had anywhere.

Top pizza spot in town and it's right across from the building. The ranch is worth noting on its own.

Reliable spot. Fettuccine without meat or the café combo pizza are both solid. The penne bake is excellent but big enough for two — split it.

Best restaurant in Daytona, in my opinion. The crab cake is exceptional, the wedge salad is great, and The Earnhardt — crab, asparagus, béarnaise — is the order. Or the blackened sea bass with crab asparagus béarnaise. Best piece of fish in the city.

Wings worth ordering on their own. First stop.

Good wings in a spot with real history. Worth the drive down to Ponce.

Underrated wing spot. Consistently solid.

Good backup when Houligan's isn't available.

Waterfront with food worth ordering on its own. Good energy.

Well-known local bar on Seabreeze. Popular for a reason.

Solid spot on the strip.

Worth a walk regardless of where you end up.

One of the best grab-and-go options in Florida. Order fresh from the deli and take it straight to the beach.

Hot from the deli case. Underrated beach day move.

The small cheesecake pieces in the cooler case are genuinely great and easy to walk past. Don't.
