Charlie Horse Restaurant

All You Can Eat Snow Crabs!

Locally owned and operated for a quarter of a century, Charlie Horse Restaurant is as much an iconic symbol of the Beachside as the Jantzen Diving Girl sign. The restaurant is a longtime favorite dining spot for both locals and tourists alike.

This casual, family friendly dining spot serves up all your favorite “comfort” foods and introduces you to a few more. Charlie Horse is conveniently located in Ormond Beach and is the answer to the “Where do we eat?” question.

No matter your craving, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. While the menu is extensive, you’ll get a large portion for a small price. Charlie Horse is known for its, All You Can Eat Snow Crabs, but scrumptious sandwiches and delectable entrees also tempt diners.

Start with one of their many mouth-watering appetizers. The only problem you’ll have is deciding which ones and how many to choose. Selections range from Fiery Jalapeno Bottle Caps to Buffalo Wings that are available in every strength.

The burgers are advertised as half pound hamburgers and indeed they are. Served with your choice of a mound of fries or chips, you will not leave hungry. In fact, you will likely need to request a Doggie Bag. Other sandwiches include Charlie’s Cheese Steak, Charlie Horse Po’ Boys, Pulled Pork Sandwiches and lip smacking subs. All are piled high and freshly made.

The chargrilled steaks are thick and juicy. The Pot Roast is just like your Mother made. The expression, ‘the ribs are to die for’, is certainly no cliché here.

And don’t forget to leave room for dessert! Charlie Horse promises and delivers tasty treats like Florida Key Lime Pie, Orange Sunshine Cake and Banana Split Cream Pie.

The wait staff is friendly and efficient. They are easily recognized by their colorful Charlie Horse t-shirts. Drinks are refilled before you have to ask. Service, always with a smile, will exceed your expectations.

Charlie Horse features a full bar and dining area. Enjoy beverages ranging from a refreshing glass of lemonade to an ice cold beer with your lunch or dinner. On a budget? Daily lunch and dinner specials will help to stretch your dining dollars. Charlie Horse serves up all your favorites, seven days a week.  ~Deborah Boyd
