Review of Crave's Coastal Kitchen by Charli from Flagler Beach / VA
Dinner tonight was amazing! The place was packed with standing room only in the bars but staff kept everything coming in a timely manner. The prime rib was awesome and their new drinks are awesome. The recent updates are wonderful and really changed it for the better. My hat is off to the new owner for turning this place around.

We stopped in for lunch and sat by the window. The first thing we noticed was that the windows are now clean and everywhere is looking so much nicer and more inviting. All the employees were friendly and the new owner stopped by to greet us. The food was very good and tasted much fresher and not as heavy as before. The Halibut special was sublime. Also, they have some wonderful drinks on the bar menu and I highly recommend the Key Lime Martini to finish off the meal. The new people here have made a great effort to improve this once neglected place and it's become our new favorite along the beach.

Used to come here often but haven't been here since before the pandemic, and with the new renovations, it does feel much nicer than it did before. Not sure if much has changed with the menu and the food was how I remember it. Server was OK and the drinks were decent. No lunch on weekdays. The outside needs something to make it more inviting. But went here for a good prime rib and I did get that!

It's been updated here since I was last here and it feels more clean and brighter, but the menu is basically the same and I thought the food was a slight improvement. The prime rib is still big and they have a very good aus ju and my wife enjoyed the maple pecan salmon, but prices as with everywhere have risen. Our server was awesome and very friendly. I wish they were open for lunch though as this food is getting too heavy for me to eat later in the day.

Vast improvement over previous ownership! Our meal was superb with delicious food and top notch service. Steaks and seafood dishes were all cooked to perfection and tasted great. Bread, salad and sides all fresh. A lot brighter and much less dank inside.

I vowed never to come back here again after several bad experiences, but as they have new owners and management my husband persuaded me to try it again and so glad we did. The new people have definitely made some big improvements and it no longer feels so moldy and musty and the service is now very professional. They have kept a similar menu as I remember it and I ordered the prime rib with shrimp which was good quality and delicious, and my husband ordered a T-bone and ate every bit. The Clam chowder had just enough spice and was very tasty too. I'm very happy to see this restaurant has turned around I hope they can maintain the improvements.

Awesome service and the best prime rib I've had for years. We were a bunch of bikers and were treated very well and with respect. All of us had either prime rib or steaks and we were all impressed with our food with everything cooked perfectly and tasted great.

Our waitress said they have a new owner that has been making some much needed improvements and it definitely shows. It feels fresher inside and the food is certainly better. My steak was cooked right and the sides good but the chowder needed to be hotter as it was barely warm. The salad was fresh. Looks like Martin's is on the up and hope it continues to improve. Maybe a name change would of been needed.

They are finnaly giving this place a much needed painting and it's starting to look a lot nicer. The prime rib was very big and had a good flavor and added a lobster tail which was worth it. I think the prices has gone up here but still good value considering.

This has to be the least inviting restaurant in Flagler Beach - with its very plain and drab exterior I drove past it twice thinking it was just an office building. Inside is a definite step back to the 70's with a lot of signs of wear and clutter and even had customers with their feet up! It seems to go beyond a relaxing atmosphere here and definitely not somewhere you'd take a date to impress. But the staff were nice and we sat by the window which allowed us to escape for a while as we gazed at the ocean.
We wanted steak and that's why we came here, so I had the Martins T-Bone Steak and my wife the Prime Rib. We both had a cup of Clam Chowder to start. The dinner rolls provided looked very anemic and needed more time in the oven to brown. The chowder was good and more delicate than I expected. Our steaks arrived we gasped at the sizes! My T-Bone, ordered medium rare, was a bloody mess on the plate and my wife's Prime Rib lacked seasoning. Neither tasted very good with almost no meat flavor, just the grill taste. No much choice of sides - so I just had a baked potato and coleslaw. Drinks tasted watery so we quickly switched to beers.
Looking around people appeared to be loving the experience, but alas we couldn't say the same. You get a mass of inexpensive food here so don't expect passionately cooked steaks with a nice sauce. If this is your idea of a great meal then please enjoy. We're visiting this area for an event, and was recommended Martin's by the hotel and will make a point of letting them know of our experience. Maybe it would be better as an office building.

On the beach and cheap, what else would you want? They have cold beer. Nice people and a southern charming place. You want better steaks go two Daytona and pay 3 times the price. God please stay safe.

Why does everyone bash this place? Nowhere else around here can you get so much steak or seafood for the money. It's not 5 star inside but prices good and service and atmosphere adequate. Always leave full and satisfied.

Could not even eat the prime rib. Tough as shoe leather with about the same taste. Place used to be great

A rough and ready place that offers terribly unhealthy yet satisfying food. Service is OK and you get what you pay for. You know the kind of place... big plates of fried food, canned or frozen sides, store bought hamburger buns as bread, etc. Steaks have always been quite good but skip the seafood... never had good fish here.

Martin's trends to get a bad rap but I quite like it. The building and atmosphere is a little tired but the views are great and it's very casual. Staff always friendly and helpful but kitchen can be slow. The food is good and plentiful. I've had steaks and although not the best cuts they have good flavor and cooked as requested. Seafood is good too but mostly fried. You get a big meal here for a reasonable price. Good specials!

This is very old school dining! Like a country style surf and turf place with dated interior and service. The food was plentiful and was actually better than I anticipated. Steaks looked like something from The Flintstones and my cardiologist would have a fit of he saw it! Not really someplace I'd visit often but we had friends in town and they insisted we give it a try. Good location across from ocean and plenty of parking on the side. I recommend if you like more quantity of quality and not looking for anwhere with atmosphere.

So many people put this place down but I've never had a bad meal here and find it great value. The prime rib is awesome and always cooked just right and the T-Bone is the best! Waitstaff are on the ball and hard working and the menu is very affordable considering the quality and portions. Very unassuming and family run. You can't beat it in my opinion.
Highlight of visit: Best for steaks! Prime rib and T-bone are my favorites.

Worst meal I have ever had. Ordered prime rib, medium. Received rare ICY cold slab of meat. When we complained to the waitress about our meat being cold, she said do you want some au jus, like that would fix the problem. Definitely NOT worth the money.
