Fish Sandwich Grilled with fries!
Kate M.

Such a great beachfront restaurant!!! My husband and I LOVE to eat at places by the ocean and this location did not disappoint. It had great views of New Smyrna Beach. The restaurant allows you to seat yourself once your whole party is there. Which as the hour went on it seemed to get trickier and trickier for people as it was a busy holiday weekend! We lucked out and got a table right away. For lunch my husband and I each ordered the Fish Sandwich and got it grilled. The fish was cooked to perfection and was so good combined with the fresh lettuce, tomato, and tartar sauce. To drink we each had a beer from a local New Smyrna brewery. Our waiter Elliott was amazing and was so attentive on a busy busy Saturday. Can't wait to come back another weekend!!

Grabbed it to go on the beach

I cannot wait to go back; best fish sandwich I've had! Others in our party enjoyed the restaurant and the beach view. Others enjoyed the burger and fries. We will be back. Service was good! Definitely don't miss this spot.

Mahi Sandwich
Holly T.

We heard great things about the place and when we arrived they let us choose a table and seat ourself. We found a spot with a beach view. I started w the shark bite and it was strong but really good. Mahi sandwich was blackened and perfect. My son liked his chicken fingers. Husband got the burger an also said it was good. We would for sure return when back this way.

Fun in the Sun

This local spot has one of the best views of the ocean, and that alone makes it special. Sitting there with the ocean stretching out in front of you and the breeze coming off the water, it's easy to see why people keep coming back year after year. The food is exactly what great beach dining should be. Fresh, flavorful, and satisfying, it pairs perfectly with a cold drink. The service is always great too. Friendly, attentive, and welcoming without ever feeling rushed. There's a charm here that only comes from a place that has been part of the community for a long time. Locals love it, and vacationers seek it out because the atmosphere feels effortless and fun. You can walk right up from the beach, sandy feet and all, and feel completely comfortable. Relaxed, casual, and full of character, this is the perfect place for vacationers to unwind and enjoy good food with an unbeatable ocean view. It's absolutely worth experiencing at least once, and most people end up coming back.

Stopped by here after a visit to Dunes Park. I've heard the restaurant is regularly reviewed as having the best burger in central Florida so I knew I had to drop by. There is a private parking lot that is small but capable. There's a parking attendant there ensuring patrons are actually going into and leaving the parking lot. Service was quick. It's a beach style restaurant. Nothing fancy. The NSB burger was just ok. For $15 it was average for its taste. Service was ok. The kids chicken tenders were inedible. Overly fried so that they were hard as the table. Tried it - won't be coming back.

Can't go wrong with a burger and fries right? I came to Breakers after a long day at the beach. The place was packed but we found a seat. Be warned its first come first serve seating. The burger was solid. It's a thick piece of meat and the price point is great. Solid place if you want beach vibes and a burger.

Blackened fish sandwich
Jim P.

As an Oregon resident over 3000 miles away, I am always looking for new experiences. Friends brought us here for lunch on our way back to the Orlando airport. The cozy fun vibe was perfect for the ocean view setting. The diverse menu offered something for everybody. I opted for the blackened fish sandwich. A generous and tasty portion sided with oodles of tasty French fries. Service was attentive fun and friendly. Definitely a great don't miss experience when you are beaching!

Three Cheese Burger!!
Chieko C.

The food here was okay. I went here for the first time last year and it was really delicious, but my fries definitely needed more salt and my burger was well done when I asked for medium well. The service is great - staff is really friendly. The ambiance is nice because it's right at the beach with a nice view. Although, I am not sure if I will be back anytime soon.

Cindy D.

Perfect view, delicious burgers, quick service...what else could you ask for? Breakers got the cook on the burgers perfectly. The fries were nice and crispy, the potato salad was fresh. The mushroom burger and blue cheese burgers were very good. Loved watching the waves while munching on a big burger.

My beach view over lunch
Angela S.

I always make a point to stop here for lunch while I am here at the beach. Consistently the best Long Island iced tea and excellent burgers. Of the years coming here I have had at least 2 burgers not good due to being overcooked. I have slowly ventured in trying other apps as the grilled shrimp and key lime season which is always yummy but this last time I had tried the chicken salad! What a sleeper hit. Chucky white meats on yummy tomatoes. The order offered crackers too but why when the tomato really added to it better! I always get the mushroom burger with Swiss and grilled onions. Delicious! I also really love their fries. Nice crunchy texture. I always get it with chili and cheese too. Never made it to dessert with all that I eat. The staff has made some slow the. Over from the gals that seemed to have served forever. They have some younger servers and now some male servers too. Didn't leave without some merch either. Until my next visit. Can't wait for my LIIT!

We had already had dinner but stopped in for a drink. It's located on Flagler Avenue right on the beach. There is seating both at and around the bar as well as windows everywhere so you can watch the waves roll in, people watch, etc. Parking can be tricky so come early if you want to use their lot as it's limited on spaces. There is a public pay lot across the street so you don't have to walk too far regardless of which you choose. One thing I had forgotten is that you have to drink your wine out of flimsy plastic cups. They have great burgers but today just a couple drinks. Overall our service was good. You can't beat the location as right in the heart of restaurants, bars, shops etc.

Favorite shrimp in FL Sat at the bar, with a wonderful view of the gulf and got speedy service from the bartender. Ordered key lime shrimp and it did not disappoint. It was soo yummy and just how I remembered it. Make sure to stop in if you are in the area. Best spot on the beach and in the area!

Mushroom burger
Aimee B.

Got some seats at the counter by the window looking out at the beach and ocean. It was a colder and windy day so not crowded on the beach or inside. We were greeted quickly and ordered some drinks for the kids and a beer for my husband and I. I had the mushroom burger. It was good and I enjoyed it, but nothing special. My youngest did the kids chicken fingers and she liked them. My oldest did the shrimp skewers and she said they were delicious! Hubs did the Blackened Mahi Mahi and he said it was cooked perfectly. Inside was clean with lots of different types of seating. The service was friendly and attentive while allowing time to sit and relax.

Great Spot for a Casual Seafood Lunch!…read more I went here for a late birthday lunch with my partner because we were hungry for seafood Our waitress was super friendly, and the service was excellent from start to finish. We were seated in a cozy booth, and I immediately noticed the fun decor--tons of license plates from different states, some with funny names or messages. It added a quirky, welcoming vibe that we really enjoyed. The atmosphere was good, but not too loud. I started with the clam chowder, and my partner had the lobster bisque--both were absolutely delicious. My chowder had a generous amount of fresh clams and was rich and flavorful, but it wasn't heavy fo my stomach. For my main dish, I had the blackened white fish with coleslaw and fried sweet potato. The lemon was the perfect touch on the fish, the coleslaw was super fresh, and the sweet potato fries were crispy and satisfying. Overall, we had a great time. I'd definitely recommend this place.

The service is top notch and if anyone notices that you need a refill they take care of you, even though they aren't your server. It feels like a family member is running the place and taking care to ensure a good meal and welcoming atmosphere. Boston's isn't a big restaurant so peak dining hours will probably mean a wait, but it's definitely worth it. Their New England Clam Chowder is silky smooth in the most luxurious way, filled with fresh meat and undoubtedly made from the finest ingredients. Several restaurants in NSB serve a good clam chowder but Boston's is my favorite. If you want to treat yourself get the bowl size serving but the cup size is a great starter choice. We visited twice during our one week stay. The first time I got fish and chips and the second time I got the 12 piece jumbo shrimp dinner with fries. Both times I chose the baked beans for a side. You can't go wrong with any choice but those beans are great. There's no way I can eat 12 shrimp so I always have the treat of a snack the next day. My husband got the blackened mahi mahi and said it was fantastic. The second time he also chose the 12 piece shrimp dinner but with coleslaw and onion rings! Take a look at the picture, the rings were terrific. I definitely prefer the thinner rings over the large ones that some places serve. Boston's is a must for visitors to NSB. The menu states that it's the best seafood in New Smyrna Beach and they certainly get my hearty recommendation.

Rolled in to the covered part of the outdoor patio with the pup in tow and were seated at a table in the corner. It was chilly outside and the heated towers and window covers were a welcome sight.

Service was friendly and personable and our waitress knew the menu well We had the turtle mound platter, steamed oysters, clams, shrimp (rock and pinks) and snow crab served with cocktail, horseradish, drawn butter and their version of old bay which was all delicious. We also had the steamed veggies with blue crab and cheese, we were kinda skeptical but it was awesome. The crab cake was also good, little filler and mostly crab and the dirty rice was well seasoned. It's a drive for us, but I think we will be back!

Highly recommend this place, great food. Service and ocean view to boot. Also one of the few restaurants that take reservations. My neighbors feel more restaurants should allow locals to make reservations.

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
