I love Fresh box Seafood!! Haven’t been disappointed yet! Owner and workers are friendly and the service and food is always on point! I usually do the family tray which is always delicious but sometimes I buy the shrimp/ crabs live and cook on my own. It’s always good either way. I recently got the crabs live (extra large) and they were full of meat and the quality was good( as always)!! Last pic is the Deluxe family tray which was delicious!!I wouldn’t skip on Fresh box seafood!! They are the ONLY place I go to in Daytona!!

Their crabs were as delicious as all of the many recommendations. I got 2 dozen to travel back home (hour and a half drive) with. The garlic butter seasoned blue crabs were large and meaty and at a great price! I WILL certainly be frequenting them! You better get them early as they sell out fast!

Delicious and juicy crabs. All of the crabs were perfectly steamed so the flesh was soft and moist. Butter and seasoning were mild and not overpowering which went very well with the flavor of the crabs. Corn and potatoes were perfectly cooked and sweet. We also ordered a tray of mussels, which was not on the menu. Mussels were very flavorful, meaty, yet soft. I was only visiting Daytona for vacation, but i will definitely return to Fresh Box on my next visit. The store is take-out only and does not have seating.
