A taste of classic Seattle drive-in culture has found an unlikely home in Seminole at Daly’s Flame-Broiled Burgers, an old-school Florida burger joint built around a recipe with roots stretching back to 1962.

Add classic toppings, melted cheese, and a soft bun, and the result feels refreshingly familiar—the kind of burger designed to be enjoyed without overthinking it. The restaurant itself keeps the experience casual. There’s an old-fashioned neighborhood-burger-joint quality to Daly’s that fits perfectly with its vintage recipe…
