Genovese's Italian Cafe	Ormond Beach, FL
Excellent family-run storefront Italian place. Steps from the beach, at Granada and A1A, it's very casual. Their pastas, especially the lasagne, are quite good.

Steps from the beach, at Granada and A1A, it's very casual. Their pastas, especially the lasagne, are quite good. They have some "designer" pizzas , which are excellent, although the standard , NY-style, isn't anything special. Good, friendly, service and low prices round it out. less
Greg's Steak-N-Shrimp	Ormond Beach, FL
Decent steaks at good prices, but nothing too special. Still, though, they do a good business, with many apparent regulars, so maybe I've missed something the two times I was there
Julian's Dining Room & Lounge	Ormond Beach, FL
This was once THE place to eat in Ormond. Now, it still packs them in, but the crowd looks pretty geriatric. I think Julians better come up with something if they want to continue to attract NEW customers. The food is unremarkable, as is the service ... more This was once THE place to eat in Ormond. Now, it still packs them in, but the crowd looks pretty geriatric. I think Julians better come up with something if they want to continue to attract NEW customers. The food is unremarkable, as is the service and the polynesian decor. less
Takeya Japanese Steak House	Ormond Beach, FL
The best sushi in the area, hands down. Either sitting at the sushi bar or at a table, the service is very good.

Either sitting at the sushi bar or at a table, the service is very good. Compared to your other sushi choices in town, Takeya's food is better (try the Tampa roll) and the atmosphere is much better; clean, almost slick inside, and not smoke-clogged. The teppan-yaki tables serves average "Benihana" offerings, not really any better than most. less

I'm not sure how long it will live off it's reputation, but the food is not really good enough to develop NEW return customers. Nothing remotely creative or original. The service is excellent, the prices are 10-20% too high , and the atmosphere (inside & out ) is depressing. less
Clancy's Cantina	New Smyrna Beach, FL

Clancy's is as good as it gets. Their fajitas (actually made properly, with skirt steak & not sirloin) are excellent as are tacos al carbon , most of their several burrito selections and their steak and seafood dishes. Can be a wait on the weekends, so go early if youve got little ones. Service is generally fine. I love the food, but two complaints : smoking and N/S arent separated by more than a thought, so be prepared to deal with it, and second, they need to go to (dare I say) Chili's to learn how tasty marg's are made. less
Rio Bravo	Altamonte Springs, FL
Generally decent Tex-Mex, it's not even close to authentic, but still tasty, and fresher than the real deal. Better enchiladas than anything else they do, but most entrees are passable. The Margaritas, however, are watery and tastless. Try the bar at ... more Generally decent Tex-Mex, it's not even close to authentic, but still tasty, and fresher than the real deal. Better enchiladas than anything else they do, but most entrees are passable. The Margaritas, however, are watery and tastless. Try the bar at Don Pablo's or even Chili's for a really good one. less
Hop's Grill Plus Bar-Mcrbrwry	Altamonte Springs, FL
I agree with June (above me); I like the brewpub concept and will support these places even if the food bites.

Well Hops has a few tasty home brews, and the food varies from okay, to delicious, but the menu is short , and I've been so often, I only order the couple delicious items--time and time again. Go there and try it out, enjoy the beers and realize how pitiful Budweiser really is. less
Rizzo's Restaurant	Boca Raton, FL

I went back last year for dinner, and the same retired crowd was still in there- I mean literally the same people! Not too much new on the menu either-standard Italian. There's lots better out there, now, unlike 1970 Boca. less
Billy's Tap Room & Grill	Ormond Beach, FL
Almost like a men's club inside; it's dark and seems smokey even when it's not. The service is professional, if sometimes slow. Their best dishes are many of the 20 or so ways they'll prepare the (very fresh) catch of the day.

Their best dishes are many of the 20 or so ways they'll prepare the (very fresh) catch of the day. Very popular with middle-aged professionals and early retirees. less
