This place is a gem! Super fun inside , it felt like a littte peice of old Florida was still alive and thriving with all the interesting memorabilia on the walls, the karaoke in the front and the warm hospitality from the servers. We love this place. Food was hot and tasty, came out quick too.

The shrimp and fish tasted fresh and delicious. A little disappointed on the sides and kids meals. The server was fantastic. The seating outside was nice, good breeze and rock and roll music playing. Will return for the fish!

This is the best place on the river; it’s worth every cent. Employees are on the ball, food is prepared well and If you like alligator this is the place! They even do a bingo night and other activities.

My daughter and I wanted to enjoy tonight’s full moon , so we decided to stop by St. John’s River for a glass of wine with a view. At first, we were disappointed to learn there wasn’t any outdoor seating available. We planned to just grab a quick bite at the bar and head home.
But then Crystal, the bartender, greeted us with a warm smile and asked how we were doing. We told her we were a bit disappointed because we had hoped to sit outside and enjoy the moonlight. Without hesitation, she made it happen, taking us to a lovely outdoor area with a beautiful view of the river and the moon!
Thanks to Crystal and the rest of the team, what started as an ordinary evening turned into a wonderful night with great food, wine, and atmosphere. We truly appreciated her kindness and extra effort.

Thank you!!!

I don’t usually write reviews but this one I had to. I went here the first time on 5/23/25 when my brother was in town. I needed to go to Daytona for something and saw this place on the way there. On the way back we stopped by for a drink and some appetizers. They were okay and I thought one day I would try a meal. On 10/18/25 I stopped by on my way to Biketoberfest. First a lady walked off and asked what I wanted to drink which I ordered iced tea. She left and another lady walked up shortly after that asked what i wanted to drink. That lady ended up being my server. Once my drink was delivered my server can over to ask me if I was ready to order. I ordered the Philly cheese steak and I asked for the $2.50 up charge for onion rings. When I received my food the server brought it, set it over to the left of me where I had to reach out to grab it to bring it where I could eat it, and then immediately after she set it down she turn and took off. She didn’t ask if I needed anything else or even give me a chance to look at my food to see if it was correct. As you can see by the picture both were less than desirable. The cheese steak looked like they threw the meat, onions, and peppers in a food processor and ground them all up then poured some kind of liquid cheese into it. For the $2.50 up charge over chips or coleslaw I got 3 onion rings. When I lifted my sandwich I did find about a 1 inch piece of an onion rings underneath it. The server was no where to be found and I asked and another lady, who I believe was working as the bartender, to come over. I told her I paid for the up charge for onion rings and is it normal to only get 3 onion rings. All she did was shrug her shoulders and walked away. Several times while I was eating my server walked by but never asked me how was my meal. Now for a little history, this same woman that is my server had been complaining about trying to set up a party there at the restaurant. She continued to complain to other employees how she is having to do everything. Though I was very upset about the service I did leave a $2.00 tip, she did refill my drink once.

Went for a late lunch and was very pleased. It was a little hard to find the restaurant but worth the search. It’s right on the water and had a great view. Will definitely be back

I had heard good things about this place and the reviews were mostly positive.

Ordered cold peel and eat shrimp.. Shrimp were way overcooked and not cold, but more room temperature.

Ordered a Philly, which was good, but they unchange for fries.. For 15 dollars, it should come with fries.

Poor bartender was running the whole place.. way understaffed at 4pm on a Friday.

Maybe it was just a bad day, but at those prices and disappointment in the food, I have no incentive to go back and see if it is gets any better.

Great riverfront spot. Good good if your selective, ask they’ll tell you what is good. Always $2 Landsharks. Check out the tiki bar on the roof for the best views. Fun friendly people, cheap beer, and decent food at a fair price point… What nuts do m can you ask for with that nice St John’s River view

Gorgeous Sunday afternoon on the upper deck for burgers. Bartender Ahmad was personable and attentive.

Local, chill, vibe and great place to relax on St John’s River.
