Brunch cocktail at Outriggers

Outriggers

Outriggers is one of the best New Smyrna beach restaurants on the water. Overlooking the marina, it has the best views in town.

Outriggers is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and boat friendly! It can get busy, but if there is a wait you can still enjoy some views and a drink on bar seats on the dock. Their menu has gotten better over the years, and for brunch you can enjoy breakfast staples like Chicken and Waffles or a Lobster Omelette. We recommend the Poke Bowl which is has some pretty delicious pork belly thrown in.
