    Margarita pizza
    Sandra H.

    Overview: 5/5 A dear friend recommended this place so I took the ride from Ponce Inlet to New Smyrna to try it. Well worth the 25 minute drive! Ambiance : 4/5 It's a small place so very limited seating and not accommodating for large groups. Mostly a long bar top with a couple (2) tables inside and two tables outside. Food/Drink 5/5 Excellent, excellent and more excellent. The Imerpo Cabernet by the glass was the perfect pairing with my Margarita pizza. The pizza was done to perfection, thin crust, sauce was not too sweet and had fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and finely cut basil. Service : 5/5 My waitress (Erin) was polite, pleasant and got the order right. She was working the whole place during a busy lunch hour. Conclusion : All the staff got along great, were joking and worked as a team. The pizza maker (Steven) the brother of the owner was conscientious and asked how I liked everything. Lots off locals came and went. The place had a "Cheers" feel to it. I will recommend and take the ride again!

    Small Pizza Carne
    Shannon Y.

    Nice little pizza shop with good service. We had the Pizza Carne 12" which was enough to split for my husband and I as a lunch meal. It was very cheesy and they didn't skimp on any toppings. Super good. Glad we found it.

    Garlic knots
    Rio M.

    Really authentic pizza kitchen with a local exclusive feel. It's incredibly tiny so you've gotta be lucky to get a table, but they do have a wait list. They truly have the BEST salad with the freshest ingredients I've had in a long time and they pair perfect with their pizzas. And of course a delicious wine selection to go with. The garlic knots were to die! The food is setup perfectly to share with a small group I don't think anyone there were getting their own entrees. It's a total local beach gem and a must try!

    We were looking up spots for dinner in NSB and saw that Prima had 5 stars and a TON of reviews, so *obviously* we had to check it out. MAN. THIS PLACE. It's a classic homestyle type spot that is always busy and feels very family-oriented right out of the gate. We had to wait about 30 minutes to be seated at the bar but it was worth every second of the wait. Service was great and everyone was super nice and running around - it was a well-oiled machine. We got a bottle of wine and relaxed while we stuffed our faces with the burrata (holy cow, please order this dish - it's not only beautiful but delicious). Our bartender recommended getting a pizza and doing half and half - since we couldn't decide which one we wanted to order. We got the special of the day and the Bee Line half/half pizza. That hot honey was literally to die for - I can't get over the flavor. It was truly unlike any other pizza I'd ever had before. Everything was super fresh and you could feel the love in every bite. I was really impressed with the quality and the originality. Obviously we HAD to order dessert (when in Rome...) so we got the affogato to share and it was pretty good. Wish we had a little more espresso to go with the ice cream but it still had good flavor. All in all: this is a 10/10.

    I can not rave about this place enough. If you're in NSB on canal street this is the only place to go. On a weekend you will have to wait a little bit as it's a small establishment with only a handful of tables, but it's worth it. The food is phenomenally fresh, cooked to perfection, and floral. you HAVE to get the garlic knots, for some a half order is enough. Pizza top choices: beeline and prima!

    Calzone Specialty Margherita Red Pie

    Takeout 2/6/26 word of caution, picking up your takeout order, pizza or calzone open the box and check the bottom of your pizza or calzone. Mine were burnt, black and color, unable to eat and try to inform the owner of the problem. He was not interested or available at any time for me to discuss it with him we'll never go back again.

    Great food great service ! This place is always busy and the food is always great. If you go to New Smyrna Beach and you want a good pizza, this is a must.

    White pizza and Italian sandwich
    Jerrica C.

    Incredible pizza and sandwich. Had the white pizza and it was a perfect pizza, great texture/crisp and amazing flavor! I have been dreaming about going back, I need another pizza from here. And holy cow, the Italian sub is insane! Amazing bread and not your "average" sub for the area. Just overall such a wonderful and quant local spot! EDIT: went back for just a plain cheese pizza and it was amazing. My husband and I ate the whole thing driving home ...

While the kitchen team is firing on all cylinders, your seating choice will entirely dictate your experience. The outside seating is lovely, relaxing, and wonderfully quiet--perfect for a peaceful dinner. However, the inside seating gets incredibly noisy and loud, making it difficult to hold a conversation. We highly recommend requesting a table on the patio to enjoy this phenomenal meal in the fresh air.

The design is incredible, they did an outstanding job of using the natural beauty of this Grand Tree and mixing it with a classy/beachy vibe. We sat at the bar on the second floor of the Treehouse that provided a relaxing environment and very welcoming Staff. While interacting with most of the Staff we primarily talked with Alexis, she made you feel like a regular whether you were or not. Alexis was phenomenal, very knowledgeable with their wine and drink menu allowing her to provide great options depending on things you like. We also had great experiences with Sidney, Jackson, and Bri, all assisted in making our visit enjoyable. We planned on drinks, maybe an appetizer, but decided to give dinner a go. As expected, Alexis' knowledge of the food menu was outstanding as she provided great recommendations for dinner. We started with the in house made Zucchini Bread appetizer, simply delicious. For our main courses we had the Prime Sirloin Steak Special, Grilled Shrimp, Sea Scallops, and 4 oz Filet. Everything was perfectly prepared and seasoned, too include the sides, absolutely delightful. Overall, I wish Norwood's was closer to home (Huntsville, AL) because it would be on our frequent flyer list of GoTo restaurants, whether for drinks and appetizers or dinner. If in the area definitely don't miss out of this Gem

Every time I am in town I eat here at least 2 times, if not more. Amazing space, positive and happy employees, amazing service. My most recent visit was 5/24/26. Our server was Kaley and what a doll! On her game the entire time we were dining. We had great conversations with her and she was professional and attentive. She recognized us from prior visits and acknowledged that, which is a sign of true professionalism. The food is always enjoyable. I had a lobster roll on this day and it was great. Will always come here while in New Smyrna Beach. As a matter of fact, my daughter will be celebrating a huge life moment here at the end of June, her choice. It's going to be epic and another fabulous time will be had by all. Cannot wait!!!

We sat at the outdoor bar ordered some happy hour drinks which they offer $5 margaritas and $6 house wines all day, every day. Nick was extremely tentative and even provided us with waters without us having to request it. The $6 wine pours come in a large sized glass and the size pour was decent! Once seated at our table we were served by Bri and she made some good recommendations. For apps we had the Cuban candy as an app and it was a huge hit at our table. On Thursdays they do a "prime rib special" which isn't really a special as far as pricing instead it is more so a special that is offered only on Thursdays for $44. 2 people from my party ordered it and they were satisfied. I ordered the chimichurri chicken sandwich which is a new menu item. The portion size of the chicken was good, however, the chimichurri / sauce seemed to lack. Also I wasn't a huge fan of their house sweet potato chips, they weren't bad, they were just okay, however, I would opt to have French fries next time. As far as ambiance, the inside is quite small which I got worried about sound and talking amongst my party but that wasn't an issue. They don't seem to take reservations unless your party is of 6 or more.
