BOONDOCKS PORT ORANGE

Wonderful service and delicious shrimp tacos. It's outside but breezy and shady

Right on the water...had Fish and Chips...fish was over fried...Garlic shrimp was over chared

We were really disappointed with our visit. This isn't the Boondocks we remember from a few years ago. I ordered the $20 fish and chips expecting a few fresh, hand-dipped pieces of fish. Instead, I received one large piece that was overcooked and didn't taste fresh. When our food was brought out, we were told it didn't come with coleslaw, even though the menu clearly states it includes your choice of side and slaw. We also had to ask for silverware because none was brought to the table. To make matters worse, our hush puppies were completely forgotten. We had to ask for them twice, and by the time they finally arrived, we were finished eating and had to take them home. Although our server was friendly and polite, we felt very forgotten throughout the meal because we constantly had to remind the staff about items that had been missed. The only thing the restaurant comped was the $5.99 order of what tasted like frozen hush puppies. The waterfront views are still beautiful, and the renovations have made the restaurant look great. Unfortunately, it seems like the focus has shifted to the atmosphere while the quality of the food has declined. Years ago, the food tasted fresher and didn't seem so dependent on frozen items. What was most disappointing was that, despite multiple issues with our meal—including having to ask for silverware, the missing hush puppies, and the incorrect information about the meal—not once did a manager stop by our table to check on us or apologize.…

We called and placed our orderro go. It was hot and right on time.

Always on point with the service and food

Honest review: I’ve been coming here for a really long time. The food is really good. If you’re a local and haven’t came here, you’re missing out. If you’re a tourist, keep away, I don’t want y’all making it busy!!!! Nah I’m kidding, you should try it too. You’re missing out too. I only come for the seafood, so I dunno about the rest of the items. If you like honest reviews please hit that like and or follow button. Have a great day!!

Fried shrimp and Mac and cheese was great and the catfish on the bay were awesome and giants we fed them chips and like 100 of them were swarming it was just a great vibe and food

Great view! Food was amazing.

I’m very surprised by the previous reviews. Went there tonight and it was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. Gnats were flying everywhere around our table and continued to bite until we left. When asked if they could help at all the servers just brushed us off. The food was mediocre at best and the whole time they were cleaning up with the room nearly still full and an hour until closing time. Because of the bugs, of us could enjoy eating so we had to ask for boxes and eat when we got back to our hotel room.

This is the best place to bring your fresh catch for a meal. Blackened and garlic seared with the yellow rice.

We have been going to Boondocks for many years and have always enjoyed the wonderful scenery and atmosphere. Unfortunately, the biggest change we have noticed over time is the pricing. What we paid at Boondocks during this visit was comparable to, or even more than, what we would expect to pay at a country club for similar food and service. It seems that many items and extras that were once included are now charged separately, making the overall experience much more expensive than it used to be. While we still appreciate the location and beautiful setting, we feel the pricing has become excessive compared to previous years. Because of this, it will likely be some time before we return.

Our favorite Daytona restaurant!

The music is not too loud, the food is great. I got the garlic seared shrimp with fries and coleslaw. The food was a 10 out of 10. If your ever in Florida near Daytona Beach come check this place out.

I give this olace a generous 3. To start there is a limited number of handicapped parking places. Our server seemed to not be having the best day and was not horrible, but less than friendly. I ordered and iced tea and my husband a margarita. The iced tea was pretty weak and my husband was not a fan of his drink either. I asked about the red chowder if it was spicy and was told it was a little bit. I asked if there was a way I could have a tiny sample to see if it was too spicy and was told abruptly NO! I have asked for samples many high end places and have never had an issue. My husband had the fish sandwich and said it seemed like it was frozen Gordon's fish. I had the triple tail tacos and was disappointed by the size of fish for the price and overall presentation. We haven't been there in 20 years and this was definitely a reminder why.

I thought it had to do with the cartoon

The food was pretty good , their Tuna Melt is yummy! Wonderful marina atmosphere and whatever u do under no circumstances go near the water... Here there b Monsters.... U'll C when u go😳😜😁p.s. yes friendly staff here , a local favorite.

They came highly recommended by a friend and didn't disappoint. Boat parking was a little confusing because it wasn't well marked. Food was great; service was fast and friendly. Dockside dining was fun and comfortable. Really nice visit.

The food is good but please beware of biting gnats. We had wonderful servers and the restaurant itself was nice but it’s completely outside and I guess there are certain times of the year that the nose’s are worse than others so please bring bug spray! We got soooo many bites during our evening there. My little two year old has bites all over and we applied bug spray after being there maybe 30 mins and realizing that they were biting. Ps the hushpuppies and mac & cheese was our favorite

The entire experience was just OK.

It was good, I mean it bar food but it was very enjoyable. Bartender was very attentive.grwat view if the harbor
