Castaways Restaurant

Great restaurant! The seafood was amazing. The service was terrific. The prices were very good. I strongly recommend the grouper. Our server was Pam and she was awesome.

Loved this place, really good food! I had the seafood platter and my husband had the triple burger, and it was seasoned well. Will come back again if we’re back in Florida.

We had a very good experience, however our fish was not done the first time it came out and we witnessed our server getting yelled for returning it. And told that there was a communication issue . Had no idea she was supposed to remake it. Eileen did an amazing job at making us feel good about the situation.. cooks need to learn patience and better communication skills.

The food was DELICIOUS. We were a party of 4 and we had the gator bites, cheese bites, fried pickles, French onion soup, club sandwich, patty melt, black & blue burger, deluxe burger, coconut cream pie, key lime pie, & banana cream pie. We didn’t talk to each other for like the first 20 minutes of getting our food. The food came out fast and our server was SUPER attentive. This place deserves all the credit. We walked in on a Saturday 10 minutes before 12pm. Pam & Brian your restaurant is a gem ♥

What a wonderful place! Food was wonderful 😋 and staff was on point 👉. Thank you for an awesome time.

Excellent food and service. We just happened to drive by this place and it looked interesting so we stopped. So glad we did. They have the best burgers, fried green tomatoes and of course hand made fries. Large portions and a friendly atmosphere. They even had live music on a Tuesday night. I can't say enough good things about this place. Great find inn Aston, Florida.

The food was AMAZING! We ordered fried green beans, bang bang shrimp and fried pickles for appetizers, they were delicious the shrimp were huge. Entrees were, fried seafood platter, patty melt and fries and prime rib quesadilla. Food was off the chain and service was fast and courteous! Def will be going back!

We have been stopping here every time we head to and from hunting camp. Stopped in today for lunch and it was delicious as always. Portions are HUGE. Had the fried shrimp and they were cooked perfectly. You get a whole lb! Ilene was our server and she was wonderful! Even with how busy it was in there she was very attentive and sweet. We will be back in a couple months! 😊

If you're in the mood for some mouth-watering seafood, Castaway is the place to be! This restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way possible. From the moment I walked in.

The menu had an impressive selection of fresh seafood, and I couldn't resist trying the cat fish to start. It was rich and creamy, with a perfect balance of seasoning, and they were cooked to perfection - tender and juicy with a delicious charred crust.

Great food and had a great server named Ashley. Very friendly and sweet. I did notice they have 2 Ashley's but we had the younger one with a great smile.

I dined here on an early Saturday. I had the fried grouper sandwich and the lobster bisque - both were absolutely delicious! My server was named Brenda! It was because of her kindness and welcoming spirit that I will definitely return. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Brenda is a definite asset to your restaurant. Loved it!!!

Do yourself a favor and stop at Castaways for an amazing meal. They serve up incredibly good food coupled with outstanding service. A must try is the lobster bisque...some of the best I've ever had. They are also dog friendly with food options for your pooch and a special sitting area to enjoy a meal with your fur baby. This was a hidden gem of a find and we are so glad we stumbled upon it.

Had the fried seafood platter and it was great. The escargot is great and I also highly recommended that. The bald bartender guy is pretty cool and they treat you like family here.

This laid back little restaurant in Astor I had some of the best seafood I've had in a while. I had a fisherman's plate that had fish shrimp scampi fully loaded baked potato and snow crab legs The crab legs were fresh and crisp when you broke into them not soggy and rubbery which is a special treat because that's the way you get them in most places. My wife shrimp dinner with fish was excellent fried to perfection not greasy. Our waitress Jo-jo was attentive funny and full of exuberance this place reminded me of a place in somewhere in the Florida keys. For dessert I had their strawberry rhubarb pie that they serve warm! which was decadent so good. They have a full bar and serve many beers on tap Friday Saturdays and Sunday they have a prime rib from small to large cuts same as steaks will definitely go back for some of those and they also have live entertainment on the weekends. I believe they open 12:00 to 9:00 except Wednesdays which are closed check on the hours though. This will be a go-to spot if I ever on my way to Daytona It's right on silver springs boulevard just before the bridge and Astor well worth the stop. PS! One of the best clam chowders I've eaten creamy full of clams not chewy That's another thing that I wouldn't miss out on if you came here order it you won't be disappointed

Honestly one of the best quality seafood places I’ve ever eaten at. The breading is perfect. Had steamed oysters, escargot, conch fritters, onion petals, gator tail, clam chowder. Everything cooked perfectly. Server Eileen was super nice and food came quick. 11am on a Saturday. I don’t usually do reviews but I just had to. The best part of all was the price! I’ll be honest, I have no idea how they I ordered all that plus two soft drinks and my bill was well under $100. I was expecting over $100. Nuts.

Got an AirBnB for a fun boating weekend & saw the good reviews so we decided to have dinner here and boy, it did not disappoint! Busy night but the service was fast & friendly. Ordered the clam strips as an appetizer, the steak/shrimp special and the club sandwich. Food was delicious and the rum/cokes were STRONG! Had a guitar player warming up while the Gators were trying to eeek out a win against Alabama. Fun, family atmosphere - highly recommend stopping in if you're in the area!

We were heading home from ormond beach and decided to stop here. So glad we did! Cute, clean place with friendly staff. Ashley took care of us. She was great! We basically tried half the menu! Started with escargot and crab cakes. Both were very good! We had to try their famous burger, and it's definitely worth the name of best burger! I got the anchor chicken with collard greens and mac n cheese. All good, but mac n cheese could have had more flavor. Very creamy just not much flavor. Also got a side of shrimp scampi. Oh and the lobster bisque was delicious! Loaded with lobster! Needless to say, we will be eating our leftovers for a few meals! We will come back!!

What a little gem. I'm sure the locals love it. We were traveling across the state and happened upon this place. Great food, the bartender, was so friendly and helpful. I had the homemade Crab cake sandwich and macaroni salad. Delicious. Hubs had a giant homemade fresh burger. He loved it. I highly recommend.

We had the nicest lunch here today. Grilled shrimp salad, buffalo wing salad and cheeseburger were all delicious. The staff is friendly and the restaurant was nice and clean.

Eating here for 15 years and never a bad meal. The fish sandwich is humunges have eaten many different meals all were delicious and I'm particular. Atmosphere and service is very good. I've taken out of state visitors there and they loved it.
