    Stopped in at Yellow Dog Eats NSB and had the Smokey's Salmon BLT -- hands down one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time! The smoked salmon, thick bacon, fresh tomato, arugula, goat cheese, and that lemon-caper aioli all came together perfectly. Every bite was packed with flavor and just felt fresh and satisfying. The vibe here is fun and laid-back, the bathroom was clean and well-stocked (always a plus!), and Mackenzie and her staff were absolutely top shelf -- friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. If you're in New Smyrna Beach, do yourself a favor and grab this sandwich. You won't regret it!

    Our server Samantha was awesome, we thought that she had been there forever and to our surprise she was newer! Great Job and very attentive! The food was tasty, reasonably priced, and came quick. It was a smaller place but it was easy to chat with the people you were with while you wait. We will definitely be back. We live near here and didn't even know it existed!

    Excellent spot

    Stopped by for a bite while checking out the art show on Canal St. Glad we did! The Pulled Pork Tacos were amazing and seemed like fresh ingredients. Service was very quick and friendly, the dog decor throughout is a nice touch as we were on vacation and missing our pups. Nice place you folks have here!

    Flavor Bomb #2 with Tri-Color Tortilla Chips and Pulled Pork
    Bre P.

    Yellow Dog Eats is hands down our favorite restaurant in New Smyrna Beach, we've been loyal fans for years! We recently stopped for a quick snack sharing the Flavor Bomb #2 with tri-color chips and a side of that incredible pulled pork. Seriously the pulled pork is melt-in-your-mouth perfection. Perfectly flavorful and never dry! And although we opted to sit inside during this hot summer's day visit, the back patio is just so cozy and cute. Highly recommend this NSB gem!

    Iced Tea

    Biked over and sat outside. The flavored iced tea was refreshing. My husband says the Florida Cracker sandwich is the best BBQ sandwich he's ever had. The curry chicken salad was flavorful and filling. Our server was attentive and our food came out quickly!

    Twisted Tuna Sandwich.
    Charlie S.

    Yellow Dog was recommended by a local resident that invited us to go to the beach and watch the Launch of a self guided Rocket. I ordered a Twisted Tuna Sandwich served on whole grain brown bread, and it came with a side of Coleslaw. The sandwich was very tasty. The coleslaw was a little sweet for my taste, but it was very fresh and did not taste bad. My friend ordered the same with unsweetened iced tea, but got only water. That aside, everything else was very good. I would recommend the restaurant to anyone with a dog and a healthy lifestyle to enjoy this establishment!

    Great food and service and its nice to see a place with 2 for 1 on tap even if it's PBR's. Was on a weekend with friends and we ate there on the first day, my friends loved it so much that they said we needed to go back on their last day.

    Jamaican Jerk Kingston Tacos

    Yellow dog eats caters to everyone in NSB! First time here to eat in restaurant and the ambiance is very upbeat and appeals to dog lovers! We had a fantastic server, efficient and helpful, we ordered Sweet Potato Tico Tacos and Jamaican Jerk Kingston Tacos off the vegetarian menu! Both dishes hit all the notes to be a tasty and filling meal! They have desert options beer and wine! A beautiful patio in the back and seating out front! You have gotta to try it! The next week I took my daughter and I got the vegetarian nachos and my daughter got pulled pork soft tacos!!!

    Johnny Rocket sandwich
    Nancy G.

    We were greeted as soon as we walked in. The restaurant was so cute and quaint. We decided to split a couple of items off the menu. The Johnny Rocket sandwich was amazing! The pulled pork nachos melted in my mouth with each bite! We also tried the peanut butter pie...so delicious!!! I recommend this restaurant 10/10!!!

    Curry Chicken Wrap Tomato, Onion & Cucumber Salad
    Casey G.

    First time visitor. Everyone was friendly, the atmosphere was welcoming and laid back. The decor was cool. The food was great. My wrap was sweeter than expected being curry but I had no complaints, tastes, texture, appearance was all satisfying

    Happy Hour all day
    Debi W.

    This restaurant is consistent in its quality of food. This time we shared the vegetarian nachos. We thought we would have leftovers, but the flavors were so good on the crispy tortilla chips we couldn't stop eating. The 2 for 1 house wine was a plus. Our total bill was only $20 plus tip. We sat outside on the patio since the weather was perfect. Parking is a bit of a challenge, but we were lucky this time. Service was friendly and came promptly.

    Nicole D.

    Awesome food, good service, cool vibes. I also love that it is so dog friendly. I got the What the Fig pork sandwich and it was messy, but delicious! The Holy Crap turkey sandwich was recommended to us with a side of raspberry Melba and it did not disappoint! Yum!

However, the food unfortunately didn't live up to the vibe or the prices. My husband and I ordered the grouper tacos, and they were a bit disappointing -- mostly cabbage with very little fish, and on the dry side. The cocktails were $17 each (before tax and tip), which would be fine if they matched the experience, but they were served in regular plastic cups, which felt out of place for such an upscale setting. Overall, it's a beautiful spot with a great atmosphere, but the quality of the food and presentation doesn't justify the high prices.

    Tried to eat here but couldn't seem to get service. First asked a server that was bussing a 10 top…read moreif he wouldn't mind clearing off 3 glasses and a basket so we could sit down. He said sure and then proceeded to keep bussing the 10 top that no one was waiting for. So we tried our luck outside. The server brought out food to a table looked right at us and went back inside. Then finally the bartender reluctantly started walking our way and by now we knew it was better we leave. So instead of trying to get us to stay here just walks up and picks up our menus and says nothing. Not sure if they're under new management or just new employees. Either way we always look forward to eating here when we come to the beach. But now I'm not so sure. I gave it 3 stars because normally everyone is so nice and we love the Frankenstein wings.

    Famous for their Frankenstein wings so we had to go and give them a try. We started with a dozen…read moreraw oysters ($18!), great price and a good size. We also ordered their soup of the day, Shrimp and Corn ($8.99). The soup was very watered down, the shrimp were tiny/miniscule and a lot of potatoes. Thumbs down on the soup for the price point. Unsweetened tea $3.75 and a pint of Yuengling $4 were very reasonably priced . Nice selection of draft brews and bottled beers too. 10 wings for $16.50 with the famous Frankenstein sauce were not overly impressive for size, sauce and price. However, they came with a blue cheese sauce that was better than any blue cheese we ever had, because you couldn't taste the blue cheese . We also ordered the Angus Burger and fries. The burger was cooked perfectly to the requested medium rare and the crinkle cut fries perfectly crispy per our request. We absolutely had to try the cheesecake from Patties Cheesecakes down the road. We had the Carrotcake Cheesecake and it was amazing for our dessert. The place is big, plenty of parking, full bar and very loud. Service was interesting. 1st waitress took our drink order and oyster order. 2nd waitress took our wing order. 1st waitress came back and took my beer and burger order and 3rd waiter cleared our plates and took our dessert order. Support local, give them a try. Good location, friendly staff and customers

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.
