My family and I enjoyed cocktails and appetizers here Wednesday and Thursday evening this week. The happy hour cannot be beat for an oceanfront restaurant. The happy hour appetizers are all very good. We sat outside overlooking the boardwalk, band shell, and beautiful ocean. Our seating was a very comfortable couch. I could have easily slept there. The sound of... More

We stumbled upon Mai Tai bar and were impressed with the atmosphere, service and drinks! The place is comfortable and has some cool architecture- make sure to look at the ceiling. I ordered the Aloha-tini and it was amazing! The bartenders were such a good time. We ended up returning a few nights later for a nightcap and found out... More

Really enjoyed the patio area of Mai Tai's. We made it during happy hour so we sampled several of their signature drinks. One was most unpopular and the waitress replaced it at no charge. Had some appetizers, all good. Would definitely return. More

Stopped in for a Frozen Drink at Happy Hour time. We had Frozen Mai Tai's that were very good while we sat out side on these really comfortable couches. Every thing is served with an Orchid in it for you to keep. We had the spinach artichoke dip that was not so good . A little on the oily side.... More

Spent a lot of time at the Mai Tai during a cheer competition. Our server, Amanda, was excellent at taking care of our needs as well as those around us. I had the Mahi Mahi sandwich on my first visit, and it was very good. The piece of fish was slightly small but tasty. On the second visit I had... More

Although the bartender told me its full bar and could make anything....when I asked for expresso martini (which can be made without the... More

My husband and i visited this bar at about 8pm on a Tuesday night. It was not packed and there was several bar tenders available. They were all standing around chatting with each other but did not care that customers were sitting and waiting for service. it took about 15 minutes to get service. After the first drink we wanted... More

Needed a quick light lunch and cocktail before heading to the airport. Wanted to go somewhere cool and original! Hard to find in Daytona ( land of chain restaurants and pre mixed generic cocktails) drinks were FANTASTIC!!! Definately wished I could have stayed longer and tried a few! I had a cucumber melon cocktail.. Soo refreshing! Drinks came quickly. We... More

Went there after dinner for drinks and to listen to the band. The band was GREAT! Wine list is horrible, but they focus on mixed drinks and beer. Comfortable setting. Some sofas sprinkled around among the tables. Nice lighting. Decent service. Good place to hang out, have a drink and listen to the band. It's a rock/pop feel -- not... More
