If you get a waitress named Nan, ask for a new server. Our party of six was seated quickly with a wonderful view of the water. The problems began when we had been admiring our wonderful view for 10 minutes before anyone bothered to ask us what we wanted to drink. Another 10 minutes passed before the drinks came out... more

We went to DTH July 13th when in Daytona; my husband went as a child and wanted to revisit. We sat outside on the inlet. The view was lovely, the band was playing, people were dancing, and we were all having a great time. The only downer was the bugs...everywhere. We asked our waitress for citronella candles and that worked... more

I'm 16 and I've been going to DTH since I was a child probably about 2 years old and I love it. They have great food and service and we call ahead so we don't have to wait that long. Even though Daytona was devastated by the hurricane I'm glad to see DTH still up and running as well as... more

Granted we only ordered something to drink so we could check out the dock and boats going by, but it was like they couldn't be bothered. We even had to flag down... more

My partner and I went to DTH to eat on the recommendation of others and I remember my parents took me there as a kid. I will rate our experience as positive, which is hard to get from me since I eat out most of the time. The service was good, although I would like to have seen the server... more

My parents had gone to Down the Hatch years ago and it was great. So when me, my brother, my parents and my aunt and uncle went to Daytona for the weekend we had to go to Down the Hatch. Well we soon realized it was not what my parents remembered. We waited for almost 2 hours before we finally... more

This is a great place to eat, drink, enjoy the music and watch the boats go by. We had a great time and will go again and again. We had good service and delicious food. more

simply said, the food is great, italian style. Everything is super fresh, the proschuito is simply delicious and the dessert divine. My wife ate one of the best banana - chocolate cake ever. We do recommand it a lot. Say hello to Lina, the owner (with her husband - and cook). more
