“Tonya was our amazing server. So attentive and thorough. Helped us pick our meal on our first visit. Absolutely phenomenal!, steak cooked to temperature, Cadillac Margaritas on point. Don't forget to start with the Queso Fundido and finish with the fried ice cream.”
“OMG….. This place is amazing the food is absolutely superb and delectable, gonna eat there more and more!!! Please go you’ll see it’s so great!!!”
“Awesomeness Blessings to all who dine there, the staff, the owners and their friends and family”
“From the moment we stepped through the door, Milpa Tacos y Tortillas made us feel like we were part of a warm, vibrant family celebrating Día de los Muertos. The ambience was a beautiful tapestry of color, culture, and togetherness that set the tone for a memorable night. The menu felt like a love letter to Mexican street cuisine, with bright, layered flavors that honored tradition while offering its own playful twists. Each bite showed care: crisp textures, balanced spice, and ingredients that sang with freshness. The Cantaritos were highlight-worthy: refreshingly citrusy, perfectly balanced, and generously poured. Served in rustic, traditional vessels, they added a tactile, festive feel to the experience. If you’re looking for a place with authentic flavors, meaningful ambiance, and a welcoming vibe, Milpa Tacos y Tortillas should be at the top of your list. We left with full hearts and even fuller plates, already planning our next visit.”
“Stopped for brunch this morning first time there. It’s a typical diner. Was disappointed that a business that says Mitchell’s Mimosas had no champagne to make mimosas. It’s not far from a few places that they could’ve picked up a few bottles of sparkling wine if running low. It is Father’s Day after all. Best part of entire experience was the very friendly, efficient waitress Trinity. She was attentive, suggested a few things on the menu, ensured beverages were filled. Food was good- typical diner. Is it a place I would go out of my way for? Probably not. But if I do, I would want Trinity as my server.”

“One of my go to spots for a delicious Sunday lunch. Love the food, especially the Irish breakfast sandwiches served on the weekend, and the beers always hit the spot. Chris was my bartender today and he was as fantastic as the food, if not better! Couldn't recommend this plas high enough.”
“LOVE Oasis. We eat there twice a week. Food is always fresh, and I haven't had anything I didn't like. They have an amazing variety of bottled drinks and sodas . Clean, small hidden gem.
Vegetarian options: I'm not a meat eater and there are so many salad options. I get the four side salad platter and never leave hungry.
Dietary restrictions: Owner cuts cucumber for me to dip the hummus because I don't eat white grains. Always tells me what's in the salads so I don't accidentally eat something I can't have. Today ordered a side salad not realizing Couscous was in it. He immediately said, "you can't have that, it has white grain in it". Love how they care for their customers.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This coffee shop has all the ingredients for a perfect recipe. First, the atmosphere is comfortable and inviting … with local artists highlighted. Their bathroom has a baby changing table, their back room has a child’s table and basket of books … they have a “free mug exchange” program … and a rewards program (free drinks!). Did I mention how clean the shop is?!?! Next, every single person who works there (inclusive of course of the owner) are always personable, welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable - whether to assist a customer to figure out “that perfect drink match” or to tweak a drink or simply to help make the day happier … they are always on point. Every. Single. Person. Finally, they make many of their syrups homemade (yum!!!) … they make their own popsicles … they sell locally owned bakery items (inclusive of gluten free) … their options are incredibly delicious across the board. I first came here during COVID on the way home from the hospital having my first child. Now, more than 4 years later, I am a 5-6 day a week customer … their lattes and bagels are the best! Special shout out to Hannah who literally notices and asks when I have missed being there a day or more … and who always remembers and uses my name. But honestly, I adore every single barista there … they remember my favorite drink no matter the season … they care … they laugh and have fun … they create this amazing little shop. I have never gone anywhere else that comes close. Check them out and spend some money … tip well … they deserve it and you deserve what they offer!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I bought 4 friends for lunch on Saturday as this has been my favorite restaurant in Brevard County since the 70's. Even had my daughter's pre-wedding luncheon there. These 4 ladies had never been to the Cafe. Their meals were fabulous. The waitresses were amazing. We had a different waitress who took our coffee order. I did not get her name. She was blonde and short. She began to get rude and continued until we left. So what would have been a lovely experience, ended. They will never go back.”
“We had a wonderful dinner tonight! From the wines to the small plates, to our “ramen special” then desserts, the experience was awesome! Very cozy place and friendly management/owners/chef! We will definitely be back!”

“We stopped in on our trip to Cocoa Beach and were not disappointed. Coming from Wisconsin, we’ve had tons of great beer. Dirty Oar has some of the best beers we’ve ever had! The bartender was so friendly when we stopped in. As a military/law enforcement family, we loved the atmosphere and show of support.”
“Friends invited us up from Mel Beach to join them here last night. What a great experience. The food and atmosphere were spot on for an enjoyable relaxing evening on their patio. The owner spent time with us and has clearly been investing in the community for many years. Keep It Local Brevard Wine Bar and Eatery is now on our list at go-to places in the area.”
“10/10. Street tacos were amazing! Full of flavor, freshly made, homemade tortillas and green sauce was just the right amount of spice. I had the asada, birria and carnitas. Very resonable prices and a must try!”
“This place is amazing! Friendly staff, fresh food, and an amazing owner. Jordan is such a great guy and it shows with how much he cares about this location! Great food all the time. There needs to be more small business owners like HIM!”

“Absolutely one of my favorite subways to go to. The food preparation area is so clean you can tell that the owners and the employees take pride in maintaining a very clean store. The food is fresh kept at correct temperatures. My interaction with the employees very friendly conversational and can multitask very well
I highly recommend this particular Subway”
“Check this place out if you are in the area. Their food is great and I love their coffee. You will not be disappointed!”

“Chippies: Coco/Port Saint John Dreamy Destination for Boba & FroYo! Absolutely obsessed with Chippies Boba Tea & Frozen Yogurt! This place quickly became my go-to spot for a delightful treats. Their boba tea selection is incredible! The flavors are bursting with freshness, and the tapioca pearls have that perfect chewy texture. Whether you're a classic milk tea fan or looking for something adventurous, Chippies has something for everyone. I personally loved the Golden Elixir, it was so refreshing and perfectly balanced. The frozen yogurt is just as amazing! The tartness hits all the right notes, and the toppings selection is fantastic. They do not weigh the frozen yogurt! Plus, they have sugar-free options, which is a major win for me! The staff at Chippies is top-notch! Super friendly and helpful, they made my whole experience enjoyable. They were happy to answer questions and offer suggestions based on my preferences. Chippies is a true gem in Cocoa/PSJ! The perfect place to cool down on a hot Florida day or just treat yourself to something delicious. Highly recommend checking it out! Five stars all around!”
“-I was blown away today after going in with a friend! it was my first time in. We got a crazy amount of thing- cupcakes (chocolate ones with the buttercream frosting- the Reese's ones- best thing I've ever had!) mini cakes (cinnamon toast crunch- absolutely phenomenal!) and don't get me started on the service/atmosphere! top notch place for sweets in brevard! look NO WHERE ELSE”
“Finally had a chance to go eat at this wonderful place. Chicken salad was great! Hubby had the BLT and loved it. The desserts are delicious. Pineapples upside down mini cake and muffins are so good. We will definitely be going back as often as we can. The plus is the cause they donate to! I’ve been an avid fan of this cause for years now. Stop by you won’t be disappointed.”
“By far one of best pizzas in town, and operated by some of the best ppl I’ve met! For sure a highly recommended spot”
“These tacos are delicious. Probably the best street tacos I've had. Meat is flavorful and tortillas are great, as are both red and green salsas. Can't wait to get booze and tacos here again!”

“I love dive bars, so if you do, then you must check this one out. It is beer and cash only. Bartender and Patrons were so friendly and welcoming. There are arcade games and pool tables. Touch tunes avail to play your favorite hits. I will definitely stop in another day.”
“Aqua Lounge is hands down one of the best hookah spots I’ve been to in Cocoa. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by the beautiful décor ,classy, modern, and perfect for a chill night out or celebrating with friends. The vibe is on point with mood lighting and plush seating that makes you want to stay all night.
The entertainment is what really sets this place apart. Whether it’s live DJs, themed nights, or special events, there’s always something going on to keep the energy flowing. The music selection is always fire, a great mix that keeps the crowd moving but still lets you relax and vibe with your hookah.
Speaking of hookah, the flavors are top-tier, smooth, and always fresh. The staff is super friendly and attentive, making sure your coals stay hot and your experience is 10/10.
If you’re in the Cocoa area and looking for a lounge with great atmosphere, music, and service, Aqua Lounge is the spot. Highly recommend ✨”
“I ordered “carrot cake” cupcakes from Candy’s Cookies, Cakes & More (Canaveral Groves)this week for my husband’s birthday, and we picked them up today. They were made fresh this morning, and oh my goodness, if you’re having any doubts about placing an order, please, make the order. Her carrot cake was the best I’ve ever tasted. Every bit of it was made from scratch - the cake was moist and delicious and the frosting was fantastic. I’ve already placed another order for a German Chocolate cake and a Lemon Blueberry pound cake, and I’m anxious to taste them. With regard to Candy, the awesome baker - she’s kind, genuine, and has “customer service” running through her veins. I’ve never had a baker offer to meet me at a convenient place for product pickup, much less offer to deliver. She did both, and we agreed on a place to meet. I felt like I met a friend today. I wish her and her business all the best success.”
“Rec 225- Cocoa, FL- 3.75 Stars "I lurched away from the table after a few hours feeling like Elvis in Vegas - fat, drugged, and completely out of it." ― Anthony Bourdain Getting back into the swing of things post--Covid has been great for the Big Boy and I hope for you as well. Thank you for all the comments, supportive and not so supportive. As you can see, I take each one to heart and answer straightforward. I do not cut corners in my reviews, nor do I apologize for them. Finding myself meandering up the Space Coast, I grabbed my random eatery generator and punched in my location. A few nearby eateries popped up and I found myself near the local star, Cryderman's Barbecue. Curious as to who could hang in the same neighborhood, I ventured into Rec 225. The first impression was one of spic and span clean, like your kitchen when you know guests are coming over. Grabbing a table, our waiter Jo-Jo came over to see how we were doing. It turns out that Jo-Jo is also the owner and not only cares about the customer but obviously takes pride in his business as he was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable and just downright awesome. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about Jo-Jo. I placed an order for their eponymous sandwich, the 225, along with one Mac & Cheese grilled cheese and a side order of Bacon and Bleu fries. As for a drink, I went with the vaunted Jarritos Orange (how can you go wrong with this liquid concoction of pure delight?). Waiting eagerly for the foodstuffs to arrive I continued to glance about the place and found the interior charming. Before too long, Jo-Jo came back with my order, placed it upon my table and offering a sincere, "Enjoy your meal," Jo-Jo went off to address other patrons. Looking at the pictures you can see that everything certainly did look scrumptious! Grabbing the self-named sandwich, The Big Boy went to work. Comprised of bacon, Gouda, french fries, and tomato pesto on garlic Texas toast it was a delicious mouthful of exquisite flavor. The combination of the bacon and Gouda was enough to send one's taste buds into a dance of joy, add to that the fresh tomato pesto and the perfectly golden fries and you are entering the taste bud danger zone! Seriously, I thought mine were going to sashay right out of my mouth they were so pleased with the flavors found in this masterpiece of a sandwich. It almost felt like a crime when I set it down and turned my attention to the Mac & Cheese grilled sandwich, but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. This was far from the simple grilled cheese we all ate as a kid. This incorporated classic mac&cheese with Gouda served on Texas toast. Grilled in butter to a perfect golden hue, it was thoroughly enjoyable on the palate. What I can say about the fries? They were cooked just right and smothered in bleu cheese and bacon. How could you go wrong? The Big Boy says, "If your not nearby, make an excuse to be nearby and grab some incredible grub!" #iamthebigboy #bigboydiningout”
“The people are so nice and chill! And the chicken! Wow. After becoming a recent revert I have been on the search for some quick halal food and this place has it! The Biscuits are delicious. (Sorry not pictured it was just so good!) and the chicken is amazing. The Mac and cheese was good for something that’s quick. But the chicken is amazing, the gizzards AMAZING. All my brothers and sisters this is the place! Wish everyone here many blessings. Alhumdulilah.”
“1-2 Months later,(2nd time eating at marcos) somebody told me one of the employees.Actually that their pieces are 50% off.I got this large 14 inch pizza for $11.You cannot beat that anybody else's gonna charge 19 plus fantastic solve?I can't complain about one thing.Great tasting as well.

“Stoners pizza definitely topped my list of “favorite pizza spots today. They use a 3rd party system for deliveries and I guess they had a problem with the system as I called and ordered my pizza and Stromboli. The manager personally delivered my food in a timely manner and he was a very nice gentleman. If you haven’t tried them out yet, I recommend you do!”

“I slid thru on a Tues afternoon just before he was about to close down. I appreciate bro being flexible…I had to run up to the store to get some bacon bc he had ran out and I “Got” to have bacon on my double burger n bacon order along with seasoned fries and a few of those Honey Lemon Pepper wings.The burger was like one of those burgers u make at the house, was good. And the wings were sauced up and had good flavor. The wings were pretty small tho…they’re almost like mini wings.Overall Nephew had my burger done and ready to go after he finished with the bacon dope spot to checkout.”
“The only problem I have with the food is the barbeque sauce itself. It's not bad, but it's very average and a little too heavy on the vinegar. The food meanwhile is cooked very well. Smoked. Dusting of rub. Good moisture. And the feast for four can feed a family for at least a couple days.
I just wish the barbeque sauce was better. Would make the prices worth it.
Dietary restrictions: Pork, Beef, and Poultry options are all on the menu for those who abstain from specific meats, like pork.”
“I want to give a huge shoutout to Missy at IHOP — she was absolutely amazing! If I could rate this experience 6/5 stars I definitely would! From the moment we sat down, she was so attentive, friendly, and welcoming. She constantly checked in to make sure me and my family were doing okay and had everything we needed. Her great attitude and warm energy made our visit extra enjoyable. Thank you, Missy, for the wonderful service — you truly made our day! 💙”
“I like this Subway a lot. It's clean (no mold on the window shields over the condiments like other ones). Thank you to this owner for taking pride in sanitation and appearance.
The staff friendly and quick. Glad to see Subway brought back the salad sub bowls. 😀”
“We’ve been going to this Chinese restaurant for years, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh, super flavorful, and the portions are big—they really pack those containers! It smells so good the second you open it, and it always tastes amazing.
One of the things I love most is how consistent they are. No matter what we order or when we go, it’s always delicious. We’ve never had a single complaint, which says a lot.”
“I have been going here for years, The manager ( Dawn) is awesome she has the best personality and a fast at what she does, always looking forward to our short chats. Lisa ( grandma) One of the funniest people to chat with she busts her butt and always seems to a smile on her face and make you laugh. April fresh is always very cheerful and helpful when I go though. The place is clean the staff is great and ill always support them”
“Solid Chinese food.
Got the Mongolian beef and chicken lo mane n crab ragoon.
Overall food was on the sweeter side but I didn't ask for any added spice.
Meat was all tender.
Rice was good.
The crab ragoon needs to be crispier, ours were tough, or use less dough and maybe like half as much filling.
Lo mein was good.”
“I really really like the shrimp and vegetables PHO, and absolutely 💕 the Summer Rolls and Peanut sauce. UBER delivery is always quick!”
