tasty, I love their fresh spring roll. Usually this dish is only shrimp or tofu, but here you can buy pork and beef as well.

They make their own beer and do flights of 6 for $6. Tasty.
They also have the best southwestern egg rolls I've had anywhere. Their steak and cheese sandwich is delicious. (Just stay away from the street tacos - nothing special)
Sit on the upper balcony to view Daytona One.

Close by Irish pub. Great neighborhood spot to grab a few drinks, but they also have food. Food is delicious. Best burgers in town. Also the only place I know that make Irish eggrolls. These are basically a reuben sandwich inside an egg roll. Definitely a local favorite!
