Best Seafood Restaurants in Ormond Beach

We came for Thanksgiving and it was so good that we had to come back for Christmas Eve. Our server Michael was top notch!

My wife and I debated eating Christmas Eve dinner at home, but at the last minute, I received an email from the Chart House promoting their Christmas dinner prix fixe menu. Mindful of the need to shop and purchase food, prepare it, and then clean up afterward, we opted quickly to dine out. We do frequent the Chart House for special occasions and are never disappointed. This was no different this time. We made an advance reservation on OpenTable, arrived a bit early, and with a minimal wait time, we were seated at our table with the requested window view. Our server, Austin, greeted us and thanked us for dining with him on Christmas Eve. My wife and I both ordered Prosecco cocktails and savored the fresh baked rolls and crackers that were brought to us. My wife opted for the Chilean Sea Bass entree, whereas I selected the filet mignon with grilled shrimp surf and turf. We both selected New England clam chowder as our starter course and the chowder was full of clams, which is rare to find in most chowders that typically have more broth than clams. My wife was delighted with her Sea Bass, and my filet was cooked to perfection with a delectable charred taste that added great flavor to the beef. The shrimp were the jumbo size and totaled six in number, accompanied by what Chart House calls 3 mashed potatoes, which I presume meant a combination of three different types, which were delightful as well. The filet cut was appreciatively large and cooked to perfection. Topping off our dinner, we both enjoyed Chocolate Lava Cake, accompanied by a dollop of vanilla ice cream. It was the perfect dining experience, we had a water view, and it confirmed that our decision to eat out was the best idea of the night. Austin was attentive, and personable and took the time to snap our pictures at the tableside so we would be able to have a permanent record of our delightful evening for many years to come.

We had a fantastic experience at Hyde Park Steak House. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, from the freshly baked croutons to the exceptional steak and the absolutely divine dessert. The service was attentive and friendly, striking the perfect balance by giving us space when needed. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to our next visit.

The food and service were excellent. Pricing was very good considering the quality and preparation, The inside dining area seemed stark and was too noisy almost to the point of distraction.

This dining experience was excellent. From the time we entered the door, until the time we exited, it was a pleasure. The server, Lezza, was so enjoyable to interact with. I spoke to Rick, one of the managers and he was a total class act.
