    I've been here a few times over the last couple years. Pretty consistent and the employees are always nice no matter when I go. Stopped it tonight and it was a good ending to the night. Reasonable prices and great outside area for the kids and outside seating. Doesn't feel cramped which makes it's even better. My kids are able to move around and eat their ice cream which is a win. I was too keen on my flavor of ice cream tonight I wish j would have stuck with more classic option but I'm not one to request something else. I'll still continue to come to this local spot due to convenience, prices and employees.

    Every time we come to Ponce Inlet we always go to her daddy's. Great ice cream and great atmosphere. They just opened the new indoor lobby area which also doubles as an office for their service camp school. Awesome place lots of interesting surfboards and surfing paraphernalia.

    Seagull food ice cream has many delicious flavors all working together in a cool treat.

    This is a fun place to visit when we are in Ponce Inlet. The ice cream is good, but I think it's the music and atmosphere I enjoy the most. It's in a courtyard with many benches and picnic tables. As you'd expect, the decor is colorful and beach themed. The service is cheerful and casual. We had to wait to order for just a minute while the server ran next door for change. We often are in the area in the winter, and they haven't been open. Now, in April, they are open on weekends. I'd strongly recommend checking whether they are open before stopping by.

    Mediocre Ice Cream. Soft serve was melting as she handed me the cone. They are using poor quality ingredients. Not worth a return trip.

    The atmosphere is really great, plenty of seating, bike racks, and activities for kids like hula hoops and sidewalk chalk.

    Being a Chicago native, I'm always interested when a restaurant advertises "Chicago" food…read more Particularly Italian Beef. What I've come to realize is that most places advertising this don't have a clue what real Chicago food is. They are merely imposters trading on a name. Jo-Jo's is different. They are a master-class in producing some of the finest Chicago staples outside of the Windy City itself. Friendly staff, cold beer (soft drinks too!) and amazingly authentic Chicago fare. Thanks, Jo-Jo's!

    Let me set the scene: I'm a self-proclaimed connoisseur of Chicago food. Thin crust, Italian beef,…read moredeep dish -- I take this stuff seriously. So when I ordered from JoJo's while vacationing in Daytona Beach, my expectations were... let's just say cautiously pessimistic. Beach town pizza has burned me before. Chicago-esque places outside of Chicago have broken my heart more times than I care to admit. I was not prepared for what happened next. The woman on the phone was an absolute delight -- warm, upfront, and honest that the kitchen was slammed and our order would be about 50 minutes. No problem. We're in vacation mode. Island time. We'll take a walk on the beach and meet you there. We ordered a large thin crust, a big Italian beef wet/sweet with a side of jus, and a personal deep dish for good measure. When we arrived for pickup, the place was hopping -- buzzing with energy and the kind of vibe that makes you wish you'd planned to eat in. And then we tasted the food. Holy. Cow. This is the best Chicago-style pizza and Italian beef I have ever had outside of Chicago -- and I'll go further than that -- it's better than places I've actually eaten in Chicago. The thin crust was perfect. The beef was phenomenal. The deep dish? Don't even get me started. JoJo's didn't just meet the bar. They cleared it completely. We will absolutely be ordering again on our next trip to Daytona. Consider this a standing reservation.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Dinner plans the other night started the way many great family evenings do--complete confusion and…read moremild hunger-induced panic. We had company over, and the original plan was our classic "let's see what's hiding in the freezer and pretend it was intentional" dinner strategy. Unfortunately, reality set in. My wife was exhausted, and I have to admit something publicly: I'm only a competent cook under two conditions--ample prep time and my beloved Instant Pot. Remove either of those variables and my culinary skills quickly resemble a survival cooking show. I wasn't quite ready to debut my "experimental freezer casserole surprise" for guests. So the family meeting began. Chinese food? Nope--someone just had it. Pizza? Also no--apparently that was last night's adventure. Burgers? Absolutely not. One of the teens dramatically declared, "Not today, Satan." Then, out of nowhere, a teenager casually drops a suggestion that stopped the room: "Barbecue from a place called Crave." Barbecue? Interesting. But... none of us had ever heard of this place. Naturally, the next question was: Where is it? And that's when the real twist arrived. Apparently Crave Hot Dogs & BBQ is inside Walmart Supercenter. Yes. Inside Walmart. At this point I was convinced the teenager had been scrolling too much TikTok. A barbecue restaurant... in Walmart? I had to see this with my own eyes. So off we went. Sure enough, tucked right inside the store was this little barbecue spot that looked like it had no business being that good. The smell alone should have been illegal to pump into a retail environment. You walk in expecting to buy paper towels and leave smelling like you just visited a smokehouse in Texas. And the food? Surprisingly fantastic. The barbecue had that smoky flavor that makes you pause mid-bite and say, "Okay... hold on... this is actually really good." The portions were generous, the menu had plenty of options, and somehow the whole thing managed to feel both fast and freshly made. The real miracle of the evening was that everyone--kids, guests, and the exhausted adults--walked away happy and full. No experimental freezer meals were required, and my reputation as a "competent host" lived to see another day. Final verdict: If someone tells you there's legit barbecue inside Walmart, don't argue--go investigate. You might walk in skeptical, but you'll probably walk out full, impressed, and wondering how you discovered a hidden barbecue joint in the same place you buy laundry detergent.

    Prices are TOO HIGH. Too bad because food is prepared with care ... Sandwiches are overpriced --…read moreand $4 for a small side item.
