Joe's Crab Shack Restaurant Review in Daytona Beach, Florida | Is it Worth it?

- In today's video, we head to Daytona Beach to celebrate Alex’s mom’s birthday and we all decided it would be a good idea to do the Joe’s Crab Shack on the pier in Dayton Beach, Florida. We have been to several Joe’s Crab Shack but none in Florida so we thought we would do a review at one of the most famous one. There are a lot of restaurants in Daytona Beach but with Joe’s Crab Shack being on the pier, it’s very easy to spot. It was still pretty crowded for it being off season. The restaurant itself is pretty neat and they have a good menu. The food, however, ended up being disappointing. The salmon was raw. Unfortunately, they only thing they offered was to recook it but after you have been around some raw salmon, the last thing you want is more salmon. The chowder was pretty good and the rest of the entrees were good but for a seafood restaurant right on the ocean, it definitely could have been better. There are other seafood places around that have much better food. It also took some time so just know that if you are going there. Overall, we had fun celebrating the birthday but now we know that we would choose another restaurant in Daytona Beach, Florida.
Stay tuned for another video coming soon. Thanks so much for watching! God Bless!!!

The pier used to have a local restaurant and it was so good. The pier was destroyed in a hurricane and rebuilt. That is when they built Joe’s Crab Shack. I have eaten there only once and it was overpriced. There are lots of great restaurants in Daytona Beach and Ponce Inlet. The Roof is a rooftop bar.
This is very interesting! Thanks for sharing. Do you remember what the restaurant was called? Definitely wouldn’t go back to the Joe’s here.
YES!!!!!! STONE CRAB!!!!!!! Also a late Nov baby! Happy birthday Alex’s mom!
Thanks so much!
The customer should be #1, even if they are a tourist!
That’s exactly right!
I totally agree the salmon looked quite undercooked. I guess they feel they could get away with it because of their location on the water in Daytona Beach but wrong! Just keep spreading the word.
Yeah it seems like they think since they have that location, it doesn’t matter what experience the customer has. Wouldn’t go back!
@@thealtemlife Salmon can be made to order just like a steak, I order mine medium rare.
@tonimadrid6701 good to know! We are not fans of that and would prefer ours more done.
No Blue Crab..a common crab here? There was a Joe's Crab Shack in Orlando. Prices were high years ago. Glad you didn't have to deal with embarrassing dance routine the waiters and waitresses were forced to do!
I hope Lee & Rick's Oyster Bar is still open off Old Winter Garden Road. That's an old fashioned place for seafood/oysters! 👍🏻
It definitely has gone down hill. It’s a great location but wouldn’t go back! Will have to see if the Oyster Bar is open and give it a try. Thanks for sharing!
Funny, we just visited Daytona Beach for the first time a couple weeks ago and walked up to that Boardwalk. Thanks for the review as I will look for other places to eat. We did try 2 places across from the Daytona Speedway. First PF Changs and that is always good. Later on we tried 4 Rivers BBQ Smokehouse and that was very good. They are going to open one in Middleton, The Villages in about a year, so it was great to try it. Very good!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing and glad you had a great time. PF Changs is good and we need to do a review there sometime. We also have to make it back out to The Villages soon!
Very helpful review!
Thank you!
Looks like Norwood would of been a great place to celebrate 🍾 your Mom's birthday 🎂...Happy birthday to your Mom!
Yeah Norwood is a top place! Oh well, we at least got a different review lol. Thanks so much!
They closed the joes near me. They should have done something for you. We had a similar experience at Outback years ago. They did nothing and we never went back
It seems like some of these places don’t really care what kind of experience you have lol.
Can't wait for y'all to eat some seafood in Key West. :)
We are excited for our trip!
Recently found your channel and have been binge watching episodes. Thus far the German restaurant is by far my favorite, wow that food looked awesome and even though I'm not a huge desert guy that desert there was nuts looking. I have found that Joe's is a gimmicky over priced tourist trap with so so food at best. Much prefer the "mom and pop" restaurants
Thank you! Appreciate all the support! We try and show a variety of things and leave it up to the viewer to decide if it is for them or not!
Thank you for sharing this , God bless
You are welcome!
The good lady and myself ate at the Joe's on 192 at kissimmee , she ordered the mussels, about half of them were undercooked and unopened, not impressed!! We wouldn't be in a hurry to eat at Joe's anytime soon.
I know Alex that you are not the sort of chap to kick up a fuss, but I wouldn't have let them away for serving undercooked salmon!!! Would have demanded it ge removed from the bill(check)
Yeah we were not impressed and seems like most are saying the same. Oh well, you win some, you lose some!
We feel the same way about that place. Only ever went to the one in Newport Beach, CA (where we are from) and it’s the same. Overrated.
Seems like most of them are pretty bad now. It has so much potential so it stinks it isn’t good!
@@thealtemlife back in the day, it was the place to be. It’s been going downhill last 10 years or so.
❤
Thanks!
Thanks guys
You are welcome!
Seafood restaurant in Florida right on the ocean serving Chinese farm raised tilapia and salmon from Alaska.
Interesting
Ditto
Haha just not a good experience that’s for sure!
That's how salmon is suposed too be cooked just a heads up xx
Well the waitress even said it was under cooked lol and we also eat lots of salmon and when it’s slimy because it’s not cooked enough, we would prefer not to eat it 😂
👍👍
Thanks!
Salmon is not supposed to be well done. The slimy texture you noted is more likely from the fish not being fresh rather then being underdone. My favorite salmon is super fresh sashimi grade salmon served raw in a good Japanese restaurant.
That is interesting! Thanks for sharing!
😋
Haha guessing you had a good experience?
Actually, I believe the salmon was perfectly cooked !
Well next time, you can have it 😂 lol
How far is Missouri from daytona?
It is about 17 hours, depending on where you live!
The salmon wasn't raw. That's the way it should be cooked. You may not like it that way but its not supposed to be well done and dried out. Tuna is cooked similary when done right.
It was gross and slimy, regardless.
Many of these have closed. No question why.
We believe that. We wouldn’t go back!
I have only been to bubba's gumps shrimp 🍤 company
We have been to the one at universal and it was okay. Seems like the chain places aren’t typically as good with seafood.
You wasted your time going that place. All the Joe’s where I live closed.
Not a good place to eat
Agreed! It wasn’t good but now we know!
“Joe’s” abysmal handling of your undercooked salmon is inexcusable for any restaurant that wants a satisfied customer who will return and tell her friends.
IF “Joe’s” revenue comes mostly from tourist dollars, the immediate sale is the only thing that matters. And that is a shame, because “Joe “couldn’t ask for four nicer people than you folks and your mom and dad.
P.S. had you agreed to send that salmon back, it would’ve gone right into a microwave oven!!
Thanks so much for the compliment! Yeah it was not a good experience that’s for sure. However, we were with family so that’s always good. Joes did a bad job! Thanks for the comment!
