“It's cute, it's in a strip mall, the tables are a little too close so if you have somebody sitting behind you or next to you that is a bit of a aisle hog it makes it very hard for the wait-staff to get your order to you. The music was good ans while I don't drink they carry Bundaberg ginger beer from Australia! I almost died I was so happy. That is my favorite ginger beer and if you haven't had one go to Nolan's. I have a dietary restrictions so I stuck to a salad with grilled chicken to be safe. And they were very accommodating with my dietary restrictions/food allergy. Again super nice staff ask for Maggs - she is amazing!”
“The food was incredible! Fresh, flavorful, and prepared to perfection. Our host was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and was very professional and helpful. A very wonderful experience.”
“Update: went for a late lunch, food was a little sub-par compared to our multiple past visits. Ordered the captain’s platter which was very bland. 3/23/24Visited Jazzy’s on Mother’s Day. 35 minute wait for a table. Found 3 spots at the bar in 2 minutes and we were ready to roll. Our bartender was awesome. She was very attentive and knowledgeable. The owner was present and very interested in our experience. Their shrimp and grits special was amazing, the best I’ve ever had. Drinks were great, as well as the other entrees my husband and friend ordered. Definitely worth the money you spend for excellent food and service!”
“This was our first stop after an early morning start from the airport and we are so happy we chose this place! Our waitress, Claudia, was so lovely. She gave us great recommendations for the menu as well as area beaches and places to check out. Her recommendations made for a great visit to the area! The food was delicious, mimosas had just the right amount of orange juice, and the coffee was excellent. We had no issue with getting a table at 8am but drove by later in the week and the parking lot was packed, with parking on the grass! Definitely recommend grabbing brunch here before a day at Cocoa Beach :)”
“Food is a delight to the senses! Perfectly balanced flavors and textures, delicious and healthy! I could eat this everyday! And I LOVE that they use biodegradable bowls and cutlery!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“This place is so good, the village should be subsidizing it for the privilege of having an establishment of this quality around. Not even kidding, it's that good. You cannot justify being in Cocoa Beach for any length of stay and not stopping in here!Drinks at the bar were phenomenal, and service super quick and friendly.Can't wait to be back on our next Cocoa Beach trip!”
“You don't expect to find some fine dining in Cocoa Beach, but this is a rare place. It has a really nice interesting menu. Service was great. And the food was really good.”

Restaurants with Delivery
“We drove here from Melbourne/Palm Bay. We got the Gobi Manchurian appetizer, Chicken korma, and chicken masala… this is what we usually get from Indian restaurants. It was the best we’ve ever had, you can just tell they use higher quality ingredients than other places. Our daughter spilled her mango lassi right before we left and they brought over a whole new one in a to-go cup, what an incredibly kind thing to do. Amazing service and food, we’ll be making the drive again next time we want good Indian food.”
“We stayed at the hotel across the street before and after our cruise. When we asked for a food recommendation when we arrived, she told us to go try the “Crack Mac” across the street. We were so glad that she gave us the recommendation. We had been to multiple different restaurants over the previous weeks and this was the first time that EVERYONE was happy with their food. There wasn’t a single complaint. We went on the cruise and I craved the burger and Mac n cheese the entire time. We all agreed that we were going back to Big Daddy J’s when we got back. We did and it was delicious again. If I ever return to Cocoa Beach, Big Daddy J’s will be a must visit for me.”

“Biscuits and gravy — one word: fantastic! Incredibly thick and savory gravy and a generous portion. Also had their crepes (with strawberries and Nutella). Doesn’t get better than that! Lots of pastries at their bakery, but didn’t have a chance to try. Too full from our meal! They look awesome though.”

We originally came here to get the Lady Bug and Cat Noir Boba drinks, but I was hungry so I ordered the sandwich and the strawberry croffle. So yummy! I will be coming back.”

“It’s a pretty incredible place especially when you’re talking right up on the beach. Great food great vibes but tremendously busy. The service was slow but you could tell they were short staffed. Our server was very polite and the food was good. The drinks were even better. Soon as you’re done eating the beach is literally 20 feet away. Id highly recommend”

“My favorite coffee shop in the Cocoa Beach area!Cafe Surfinista is a short walk from the ocean itself, so it's easy to grab a drink to go for a beach walk — plus they've made the most of a cute patio area to enjoy the fresh air on site, along with ample indoor seating to get out of the Florida heat when necessary. Basically: There's a spot for everyone on every kind of day.All the drinks and food we've ordered have been delightful. Particular fans of the mocha.”
“This is a small venue...only 8 tables so make sure you have a reservation for this amazing culinary experience! Drinks were creative, the scallop appetizer was delicious as well as the entrees. I chose lobster tail and steak that came with Brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes. Try the unique take on bread pudding for dessert accompanied by an espresso martini. Service was friendly, very nice ambiance!”
“The cutest little find! Service was amazing. We did not have a reservation and they squeezed us in. All staff was super friendly and caring. Soft lighting, nice ambiance, elegant menu, tuna appetizer was to die for. We will be back, to try everything on the menu! Again can’t rave enough about the staff. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed. 10/10 recommend.”

She anticipated my drink refill before I even realized it! The food was delicious-we did the pick 2 combo because you can choose from different items. The drinks were actually really good and reasonably priced. Loved the chips and salsa and the fun atmosphere. Will absolutely return!”
“We sat in a booth that had a little privacy. We ordered an alcoholic drink (don't recall the name) and we had the buffalo shrimp that was so fresh and delicious. Full of sauce and flavor; tender and sweet. I cannot wait to go back!”

“First of all, our blonde headed, 40 something waitress was FANTASTIC. Super friendly, great personality, AND she went above and beyond exceeding my expectations.Then the food, I ordered the parmesan pasta salad because I'm fussy about fries. Tried one of my sons fries, immediately disappointed with my choice of side. My son and I both ordered the Florida Gator Melt, with all the fixings, and it was phenomenal. Very happy we stayed for supper.”
“We arrived a little early for an 8pm reservation and had two very well made cocktails at the bar before dinner. Once to the table, Barbara provided friendly and prompt service throughout the meal, while also making excellent recommendations. We enjoyed the smoked white fish appetizer, the French Onion Soup was very good, and the clam chowder was amazingly delicious. For entrees, the Steak Diane and the ribeye - each was very well seasoned and perfectly cooked, and the twice baked potato Gregory’s is known for was the perfect side. Thank you for a great dining experience!”
“Stopped in on a whim after a day at the beach. Food was amazing, but the restaurant overall needs some work. Windows were dirty from the outside, almost making us immediately find something else. Tables were used and dirty.Fix the atmosphere, and you'll have a winner.”
“Such a great addition to the pier, fun drinks and you can add a shooter on top. The prices are reaaaally expensive, for this one it was $26 with $20 refills (and I got the smallest option). There's about 6 different cocktail options. If they lower the prices it would entice me to keep going but it's too much to keep going back when you can just bring your own drinks to the beach. Good to try at least once though for fun.”
“Karen is the best waitress! So friendly and familiar with the men. The WINGS are definitely on point! Loved every bite! I believe I had the #6 wings. I will go again when I'm back in the area. 2 thumbs up ? ? ?”
“Had the salmon sandwich BLT, which was very good on the smaller side but with plenty of hot, delicious french fries and my husband had the fish and chips which he said was fine. They were out of the Pinot Grigio that I wanted but she brought over a different wine and told me I could taste it to see if it was OK which it was even though that was three dollars more personally, I think they should have charged me for the one Grigio that I wanted which was $10 a glass, but anyways love the modern decor and our waitress was very nice”
“While the shark tank is temporarily being refurbished the food and service do not go unnoticed. Prices are very fair. Chicken tacos and the burgers are delicious! Definitely a great stop for a tasty bite!”
“They made me and 5 other people move tables not once but twice. Some server lady thinks she’s the manager and is disgustingly rude. She wears sunglasses in the shape of a heart and a grey polo shirt. Our server Harvey on the other hand was fantastic. The food was delicious and came out fast. Yay to Harvey. Boo to the rest of the staff pretty much. Nice place just need to get their workers informed of what’s going on because rules are different no and I’ll get yelled at for something a server did. The real manager said the server would not “fess up” to telling us a table was reserved when they do not take reservations.”
“Just got take out last night from here and it was simply the best Chinese take out I have ever had. The broccoli was even cooked beautifully! The fried foods tasted fresh and not greasy. It was a delicious. Rivals San Francisco Chinese Food!”
“First time stopped by to have lunch with my hubby, we both loved it! We had grilled and batter fried grouper sandwich with sweet and regular potatoe fries and coleslaw. Wow, grouper was so delicious and perfectly prepared! Service from our kind waiter Matt was as well friendly and professional, and we loved the overall ambience of this casual restaurant on the intercoastal. Coming back for sure!”
“We've ordering from these guys for years and yeh a few years back we would occasionally get the wrong order but have never had any issues with food being bad ... this is one of the very few that can do sweet and sour pork without overcooking it I highly recommend these guys”

“Like most places that look rough the food is what really matters and that’s how this place is. Atmosphere isn’t the best and it has a a bit of a bad Oder, but the food was wonderful. I got a couple orders of clam strips and the blackened mahi mahi and it was spot on. Kids loved their dishes as well.”
“The cutest little find! Service was amazing. We did not have a reservation and they squeezed us in. All staff was super friendly and caring.

“Possibly the best food in Cocoa, I kid you not. They say everything is scratch made, and I absolutely believe it. The crab cakes are more crab than cake and are wonderful. The fettuccine Alfredo with blackened chicken was so good that I didn't even get to snap a photo of it before it was gone. This place is a true gem!”

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere! Once we found Juice N Java, we went every day for the rest of our vacation. The thing we will miss most about cocoa beach is JNJ cafe. The food, coffee, and smoothies were amazing every single day. We especially loved the buzzed honey bear smoothie, Apple fritter bread, and the american and beach breakfast burritos. The service was fast and the employees were very friendly. You can tell this place is Christian owned by the mission statement on the wall, and the Bible verses and Christian music playing created the perfect atmosphere for our afternoon Bible study.Parking: Parking lot is right on the side of building. They will validate for 90 mins.”
“We had a large party and tried many dishes between all of us. Everything we had was incredible. Two waitresses all night for the whole restaurant that we could see and they both did amazing. I don’t think they stopped for a break all night.”
“We went in for dinner on a Tuesday night. Heather and Savannah treated us very nicely from behind the bar. We ordered gator tail, onion rings, and nachos which all were delivered quickly from the kitchen and tasted great. The music was excellent as well.”
“Old school diner with great food reasonable prices and huge portions. The staff was so nice and friendly will definitely return on our next trip to Cocoa beach.”

“Rena is the best server I have experienced in the past 20 years of coming to cocoa beach !! Wonderfully pleasant, immediately takes care of you and always makes u feel important. Who ever hired her should get a raise!!!”
“I cannot say enough positive things about this place. Convenient to Ron Jon’s. Located in an unassuming little shopping center across the street, when you walk in you are transported. The atmosphere was great. But more importantly the pizza knocked our socks off! Listen, I don’t like mushrooms, but I got the white pizza unaltered, with its ‘shrooms, and it was outstanding. What sorcery is this? The pizzas were all expertly and artfully crafted. Such precision! The cheesesteak was probably the best we’ve ever had. We finished up with a rich, creamy cheesecake, and the Nutella pizza, both tenderly handcrafted. So much heart and soul goes into the food, you can taste it in each and every bite.Parking: Ample parking.Kid-friendliness: The staff were wonderful with our kids.”
“Sushi is perfect and the pad thai is good tooA few years ago I had a horrible customer service experience however they have really stepped up their game in that sector.We ordered 4 rolls, pad thai and drinks spent $80 really fair for fresh sushi.++ its always busy.”

The staff is super friendly and attentive. They have free parking in front of restaurant or you can park across the street. Food was good. My chicken needed a little seasoning but it was cooked well. Drinks were ok. I’ve had better.”
“Convenient Dunkin' just north of the Cocoa Beach main area, right on A1A. We went in to get a variety of donuts for our friends and they had a good selection.The lady behind the counter was cheerful and helpful. We made sure to give her our QR code to get our points on their rewards program. Easy parking.”

“Best place on the beach to have a drink. Located across the street from coconuts on the beach. These guys are half the price with a much more chill atmosphere. Great place for locals and tourists alike.”
“We enjoyed this restaurant while staying at the Beachside hotel. Duck Dive has a great island vibe with a walk up window to order drinks and food. The mahi sandwich was great and my wife absolutely loved the tacos. Not sure why but they didn't have tartar sauce. The food was very expensive but I guess that's the price you pay for convenience. Will definitely dine here next time we are in town.”
“The staff here is amazing ! Dave at the concierge is a treat ! He cares for your well being and answers every questions I had! The staff here overall is above and beyond!Btw; try the swordfish, it’s to die for!”
“Our service was very friendly and the food was fine. We had two for Tuesdays deal which has gone up from $20 to $26 in the past 2 years apparently. That’s the only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars here and my annoyance that the fishy and chips only come with one side although all the other options come with two.”

The rosemary parm bread was slightly overcooked, but otherwise, it's usually perfect.Vegetarian options: There are plenty of vegetarian optionsKid-friendliness: Kid friendlyParking: Plenty of parkingDietary restrictions: Lots of options”
“I dined with my roommate, Lisa, at El Buzo when it was located in Casselberry, for a few years. We tried many dishes and enjoyed each very much. Then we both moved away and when i came back for a visit, El Buzo was gone too. We didn’t know if they were still in business or where they went. By accident, Lisa went to Cocoa Beach and discovered their new location. The quality of food was still the best that we had come to love. I can’t wait to see the owner, Bruno and his wife again. Looks like an awesome menu where I can try something new along with my favorites.”
“Red was our bartender/server and she did absolutely outstanding. The food was amazing. Tried the pineapple shrimp bowl and had a pineapple Express cocktail to go with it. Definitely coming back each time I visit!!! Thank you Pineapple point!”
“Beach Eatz is under new management, which is much better than before. The Chicken Gyro and Greek Nachos are perfect for ending a beautiful day swimming in the ocean. If you're looking for affordable, delicious food and a great beer selection, Beach Eatz is the place. -”
“I'm a lifelong New Yorker, and I've been to more than my share of Irish pubs. For a bar in Florida, these guys have the vibe down pretty good. Fun times. Didn't have any food, so I didn't do 5 out of 5. Maybe next time.”
“This place has the best thai food that I have had in Florida! I go here every time I am in Cocoa Beach for dinner. I get the same thing every time and it is always consistent and delicious! Plus, it’s nice to support a local family owned restaurant. The portions are large so I always have enough for another meal. The family who runs/ own the restaurant are super nice and remember me since I go there often. They even remember my order. I highly recommend the pad thai! Its the beat i have had since i moved to Florida!!! 10/10 would recommend!!!”
“First time there but will definitely go back. Pulled pork sandwich was delicious and fresh smoked flavor. Many sauces to choose from. I had fried jalapeños for appetizer very good. Dipping sauce was good. Baked beans good. I opted for spicy cole slaw but did not eat. I personally didn't like. Will get regular slaw next time. It was really good and more than I could eat and took the rest home for later. Pork was wonderful. Prices very reasonable. My iced tea was fresh very good and more than I could drink.Parking: Free parking with handicap spaces. Parking in back and walk around to entrance on side. Outdoor tables with bar booths and tables. Beach environment and very friendly and good service.”

We went in to get a variety of donuts for our friends and they had a good selection.The lady behind the counter was cheerful and helpful. We made sure to give her our QR code to get our points on their rewards program. Easy parking.”
“The calzone is huge! I thought it was very good and decently priced. Hard to find good Italian, but as far as pizza and calzone goes, this place does it well. Bring an appetite!”
“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere! Once we found Juice N Java, we went every day for the rest of our vacation. The thing we will miss most about cocoa beach is JNJ cafe. The food, coffee, and smoothies were amazing every single day. We especially loved the buzzed honey bear smoothie, Apple fritter bread, and the american and beach breakfast burritos. The service was fast and the employees were very friendly. You can tell this place is Christian owned by the mission statement on the wall, and the Bible verses and Christian music playing created the perfect atmosphere for our afternoon Bible study.Parking: Parking lot is right on the side of building. They will validate for 90 mins.”
“Great find! Food & service was great. Additional recommendations mahi tacos, fried okra & chefs salad. The vegetables were fresh and the salad was huge.”
“We are in town for a cruise and staying the night. We stumbled upon this place and LOVED it! Our server, Amina, was THE BEST! She made our dinner experience pleasant and fun. She anticipated my drink refill before I even realized it! The food was delicious-we did the pick 2 combo because you can choose from different items. The drinks were actually really good and reasonably priced. Loved the chips and salsa and the fun atmosphere. Will absolutely return!”
“love the location. Service was great! food was decent. I think I ordered something that didn't taste well to me. I will go back again and get something else.”

“I've drove by here a bunch of times so had to check it out. Its a cool bar with games set up outside. Beer was cold and the bartender was prompt and polite.I understand FL is pretty humid at times but wiping off the outside seating would be clutch.”
“Meat pizza was absolutely phenomenal after our surf session, me and my buddy got a 16" pizza and it was a nice crispy bite all throughout the pizza. It was so nice of them to also give us 2 free drinks on the house, Love the environment such great people working here at this place.”
“We stayed at the hotel across the street before and after our cruise. When we asked for a food recommendation when we arrived, she told us to go try the “Crack Mac” across the street. We were so glad that she gave us the recommendation. We had been to multiple different restaurants over the previous weeks and this was the first time that EVERYONE was happy with their food. There wasn’t a single complaint. We went on the cruise and I craved the burger and Mac n cheese the entire time. We all agreed that we were going back to Big Daddy J’s when we got back. We did and it was delicious again. If I ever return to Cocoa Beach, Big Daddy J’s will be a must visit for me.”

“We drove here from Melbourne/Palm Bay. We got the Gobi Manchurian appetizer, Chicken korma, and chicken masala… this is what we usually get from Indian restaurants. It was the best we’ve ever had, you can just tell they use higher quality ingredients than other places. Our daughter spilled her mango lassi right before we left and they brought over a whole new one in a to-go cup, what an incredibly kind thing to do. Amazing service and food, we’ll be making the drive again next time we want good Indian food.”
“It’s a pretty incredible place especially when you’re talking right up on the beach. Great food great vibes but tremendously busy. The service was slow but you could tell they were short staffed. Our server was very polite and the food was good. The drinks were even better. Soon as you’re done eating the beach is literally 20 feet away. Id highly recommend”

“We went in for dinner on a Tuesday night. Heather and Savannah treated us very nicely from behind the bar. We ordered gator tail, onion rings, and nachos which all were delivered quickly from the kitchen and tasted great. The music was excellent as well.”
“Excellent good. Excellent service. The best key lime pie we’ve ever had. This is must stop if you’re looking for a relaxed atmosphere with good food at a reasonable price.”
“They made me and 5 other people move tables not once but twice. Some server lady thinks she’s the manager and is disgustingly rude. She wears sunglasses in the shape of a heart and a grey polo shirt. Our server Harvey on the other hand was fantastic. The food was delicious and came out fast. Yay to Harvey. Boo to the rest of the staff pretty much. Nice place just need to get their workers informed of what’s going on because rules are different no and I’ll get yelled at for something a server did. The real manager said the server would not “fess up” to telling us a table was reserved when they do not take reservations.”

The place was very busy but one of the guest saw I was having trouble with legs and came to help me. That is the great thing about the south. People help people. We also bought shirts an d hats.”
“Very impressed by this authentic Italian pizzeria! The pizza is tossed by hand and made fresh in their wood fired oven. The owners and staff were so kind to us and the pizza was delicious! If you’re visiting from out of town I highly recommend ordering some pizza to go and watching the sunset at Manatee Sanctuary park.”
“Had the salmon sandwich BLT, which was very good on the smaller side but with plenty of hot, delicious french fries and my husband had the fish and chips which he said was fine. They were out of the Pinot Grigio that I wanted but she brought over a different wine and told me I could taste it to see if it was OK which it was even though that was three dollars more personally, I think they should have charged me for the one Grigio that I wanted which was $10 a glass, but anyways love the modern decor and our waitress was very nice”
