the Hawaiian Inn is bad to being the normal hang out it used to be…

Gene’s Steak House
Gene’s Steak House
Not really in our usual travels in Daytona, Gene’s Steak House is west of the Speedway on 92. I just happened to get a Coupon on Groupon and decided that we would give Gene’s Steakhouse a call.
My sister and I were in town right after the Daytona 500 and met up with my parents and we decided to try the place out.
The restaurant is quaint, cozy and very welcoming. Kitchen is wide open right when you walk in – you can see and smell the steaks cooking and when the food comes up – out it goes. We started out at the small bar and had a few drinks.
Since my parents have retired and moved to northern Wisconsin – my sister has lived in Onaha for about 15 years – we seldom get together, so it was really a nice opportunity to get together and catch up.
This is my sister with Tony Stewart – he is madly in love with her and is going to come get her someday… but he is so busy reacing cars and winning all the time that he has not had a chance to come find her…
It could happen !!!!
We went right to the steaks – we all had 10 oz Filet Mignon. The stuffed baked potatoes are filled with everything , butter sour cream and all the fixins…
I love my filets RARE and this was cooked perfectly…. as good as any fry aged beed that I have had – steak melted in my mouth !! AND I LOVE horseradish – they had good, fresh, spicy horseradish… the kind that clears your sinuses …
Extra bacon on my baked potato was not a big deal … excellent !!!
Fries were pretty boring… but I all steaks were cooked perfectly and overall great meal !!
For desert – Creme Brulee – I usually like to have a small side of fresh fruit or creme, but was cooked perfectly…
The carmelized sugar melts in your mouth – just excellent…. We had the key lime pie too, but someone (not naming names here) ripped into the key lime pie before I could get a picture — OK , I forgot to take a picture before I dove into it… Key Lime pie was excellent too….
Overall great steaks – recommeneded…service was good and will go back again !!
