“First thing. The product is one of the best I have tried in an extremely long time. I ordered my favorite. New York pie with pepperoni. Superb taste. I can now understand why so many rave about this place. My only issue was the slow service when the entire dining room was completely empty in the early afternoon. A 14 inch pizza should not take a half hour to make. To my opinion, not much attention was payed to a waiting customer even if the dining room was completely empty. I realize that it was a slow time and much relaxation was probably needed due to a heavy lunch hour. But that should never come at the expense of a waiting customer. Even if I was the only one. I also understand that there are online and phoned in orders that also require attention. But my experience after so many years in dealing with customers of all kinds. I feel that it is best to service the customer in the quickest time possible. I feel that there was too much lagging of feet even if I and perhaps another customer at the bar were the only orders in wait.However after eating such a fabulous tasting meal that satisfied the hangry person after a 12 hr shift, I do need to admit that this place serves great tasting food.Would I visit again. Most likely and hopefully not after work when I am extremely hungry and when I can spend a little more time waiting if it comes to that.HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
“I would recommend this place! We tried the buffalo chicken pizza and chicken parmigiana. They were pretty good. Ann was very helpful and kind to us! I really appreciate her service! Definitely one of the sweetest servers I have ever encountered in a restaurant!”
“Tely always meets the guests personally. The service is great and the food is superb. Chinese cuisine with the white tablecloth atmosphere. It’s one of our fav’s.”
“We were there on a late Saturday morning and had about a 20 min wait, even though we joined the line virtually about 15 mins prior. The texting app is great to keep us informed of our status in line. Server was helpful at making recommendations and food was delish. Given the crowd it was a bit noisy but not too loud that we couldn’t hear each other. We enjoyed breakfast and paid using the QR code on the bill. Reminder to us to clarify eggs over easy is more runny than perhaps over medium… we forgot to ask.”
“"Today marked my first visit to Archie's British Restaurant, and let me tell you, it won't be my last! I ordered the fish haddock and chips, and it was absolutely divine – perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. But what truly made the experience exceptional was our waitress, Sandi . She was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly attentive, despite being busy running around. Sandi’s exceptional service added an extra layer of enjoyment to an already fantastic meal. Can't wait to come back and explore more of their menu! Highly recommend Archie's for anyone craving delicious British cuisine served with a smile. ??? #BritishCuisine #FoodieFinds #GreatService"”

“Our server, Jenni, was awesome. We hadn't been here in a few years. She was very helpful with the menu changes and suggestions. Her attentiveness was the perfect amount of kindness and timing as to not be interfering but also anticipated our needs, drinks, napkins, etc.Also, I don't remember the food being this savory! We won't wait years to return this time!”
“This is a solid restaurant with good portions, and more importantly, reasonable prices.Not some overly loud place and the servers are attentive.Definitely could see myself coming here on the regular.”
“Best Hapoy Hour around. Half off pints from local breweries. Enjoy a dragon point IPA for $3.50. The food is great with tons of choices for all tastes. Laid back vibe and the staff is great. Thanks to Nicki and Ashley for taking great care of us.”

“Took my daughter to Coasters for lunch today. I've eaten here often and always had good food in a congenial environment. We were enjoying some beverages and the sunshade suddenly collapsed on top of me. I wasn't hurt in any way, but the staff was excellent. They had us at a new table with fresh drinks and a delicious meal. They're a great place to eat.”

“The best double double burger and chili cheese fries ever! I travel all over Florida for work 5 days a week This place should be kept a secret but deserves to on the travel channel for Floridas best burger joint.”
“My fav ice cream shop! My go to is the founders favorite and every time I go into the shop I always see there cakes and cupcakes in the refrigerators that are available to buy. I finally remembered and decided to try it for a birthday party. I bought a “cheesecake named desire” and the Reesie peanut butter cups. So delicious! It was a big hit with kids and adults alike. Highly recommend!”

Portions Wow!Parking: We got handicap spotKid-friendliness: They had high chair and booster seat for our kids. Kids menu. Lots of yummy friesWheelchair accessibility: Accessable outside, ramp inside”
“Food was awesome. Delivery was spot on. But why did I add in delivery tip for the gentleman that delivered my food and he didn’t receive it. That option should be taken off if the money I give you for delivery guy is kept by your restaurant. I would appreciate it if you would square up with him.”
“I had the pleasure of dining at Mister01 recently, where I experienced some of the best customer service I've ever encountered, thanks to a waiter named Abby. From the moment we were seated, Abby made us feel welcomed and valued. She was incredibly attentive, ensuring that our glasses were always full and our table was neat throughout the evening.Abby's knowledge of the menu was impressive. She provided detailed descriptions of dishes, including ingredients and preparation methods, which helped us make informed decisions about what to order. Her recommendations were spot on, enhancing our dining experience significantly. The passion and enthusiasm Abby showed for the food and drinks served at Mister01 were contagious, and it was clear she took great pride in her work.What set Abby apart was her genuine warmth and kindness. She went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was memorable. Whether it was her attentive service, friendly conversation, or her ability to anticipate our needs before we even had to ask, Abby made us feel like we were the only customers in the restaurant.The exceptional service provided by Abby at Mister01 deserves recognition. It's not just the delicious food that will bring me back to Mister01 but also the outstanding service. Abby is a true asset to the Mister01 team, and her dedication to excellence in customer service is a shining example for others to follow.”
“I purchased an iced coffee with organic vanilla syrup and light sugar with almond milk and it almost tasted like alcohol. I’m not sure why. It may have been the vanilla, I had to toss the coffee out. It didn’t have any sweet taste either, unfortunately there was also coffee grounds at the bottom of my cup as well. I believe they were short staffed and I might have to try this place once more since they do have quite a lot of good reviews. I would steer away from the iced coffee and stick to their specialty drinks.They were super nice and the owner called and refunded my order and apologized about the order. I will definitely give them another try!”

“Great lill breakfast place. Little bit of a hidden gem. Always good food. Never any complaints. Getting a little dated on the inside. But won't stop me from eating there.”
“I bought the pulled pork, slaw, and waffle fries for a friend of mine. He said it was the best ever. I can rate the service as a 5 because I picked it up for my friend, and you couldn't ask for better customer service. Nice experience all the way around.”

“I am a frequent patron of this place. Food is good. Place can get busy at times, specially on the weekends. Food prices have gone up significantly in the last few years, partly because of inflation I assume.”

“The food is truly delicious and different from most of the restaurants in Brevard County. The dishes are not huge but carefully presented and tasty. The restaurant is a small and tastefully decorated. One of the nicest features is the ability to have a conversation with your group. Noisy restaurants seem to be the norm today everywhere, not only in Florida.”
“Recommended ? the arepas are super good and a wide menu to choose from. The place is a little small; but it's really worth it! When I return to Melbourne, I will repeat. ?”
“We ate there tonight and were totally impressed. We had the family meal: antipasta salad, 12 wings, 12 garlic rolls and a large 1 topping pizza. Everything was delicious, service great and had a nice conversation with the owner. I own a restaurant and love local places that do things right. I hope this place has great success. ?”
“Fantastic lunch specials! I thoroughly enjoyed my Panang Curry dish with chicken and lots of vegetables! The restaurant is small, quaint and has been here for a long, long time. Included with the lunch special is a cup of their soup of the day, and a spring roll. All of this for $9.95 plus tax!Vegetarian options: So many ways to combine vegetables with sauces, and Rice or Noodles.”
“Bridgette and Tiana at the bar were absolutely amazing. This is the best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had and I’ve actually been to the Mediterranean so that’s saying something. The drinks are unique and outstanding. I don’t have enough great things to say. Flavors of food and drinks—AMAZING!!! It’s hard to find authentic flavor with good service in this area. We will definitely be back.”
“Where do I start … it was a pleasant surprise, we were supposed to go to another restaurant but it was closed and we came to Manny's so glad we did !! I’m Italian descendant and my mom made The best gnocchi and this one got a 5 ⭐️ thank you for keeping it authentic it will be my to go Italian restaurant from now on !! Great service well done Manny”
“Wow! The crab Rangoon is off the charts!! Egg rolls were fire, some kind of delicious meat on a stick (pork or chicken), and we got some donuts that were too good to be true! We also had the orange chicken (best I've ever had), the bourbon chicken, and the general tso's chicken, all of which were amazing! Definitely coming back here next time we go out.”
“Fantastic food! I like to go at least once a month. Med spice is good. Indian spice is deadly. I think the wife gets Indian hot so I won’t eat hers. But it’s so good I will still nibble on hers as well.Vegetarian options: Had the veggie samosas. I thought they were better than the Chicken samosas.”
“Best authentic Mexican tacos I've had since I've moved to Melbourne so far although craft tacos are delicious as well, nothing beats the simplicity of carne, cilantro, onions, corn tortilla and lime!”
“We picked melting pot for our anniversary celebration because we have had so many good experiences there. Unfortunately this didn't live up to that. After watching our oil bill for 15 minutes with no food arriving I searched for the waitress. She brought our food but explained we were waiting for them to make sauces 15 minutes later after another reminder we got them. Probs were good but others were at Best average. We enjoyed the night but left disappointed and will rethink where we go for future special events going forward.”
“We came on a Friday during lent, and the grouper was cooked perfectly, along with my wife's scallops, and that does say a lot about a place.Everyone raves about the lava cake, it was good, not great but the price for it was really good.Would come again, no problem.”
“Visited here for breakfast for the first time and LOVED it! The ambience is so cute.. loved the tablecloths and all decorations! Food and coffee was amazing! I can appreciate the option for plant based milk options too! Julia, our server was attentive, caring and super sweet! Will definitely be back! Highly recommend!”
“I love this place so much. I love it even better than Fogo de Chao or Texas de Brazil. The food is such good quality and tastes amazing including the appetizers, the service is phenomenal, and it’s just always a magical time. Ask for Leila, Alejandra, Olga, or Martin. They are wonderful!!! ❤️❤️”
“Terrific place! Had my birthday dinner there a week ago and was not disappointed! We were a party of five and ate on the rooftop. Although we were on the rooftop, we did stop by the second floor where they host karaoke and comedy nights, concerts, etc…. It’s a very cool room! Two in our group do not eat seafood and felt that there was plenty on the menu for them to order. Not one of us were disappointed with what we had. I had the pompano fish and it was an amazing meal. The views of the Indian River Lagoon are great. It’s nice to sit and watch all of the boats passing by. The only complaint we had was it ended up getting quite chilly. A cold snap was moving in that night and we anticipated there would be heat lamps, or it would be a little bit more wind protected. They told us that the heat lamps were all out of fuel, and they weren’t able to set any up.”

“portions keep shrinking… our waitress Sue H must have had a very bad morning as she eventually took our 5 orders with much attitude. The restaurant was pretty empty yet the food took a very long time to arrive at the table. We were missing several sides and the bacon had to be sent back to cook a little more and was not brought back until towards the end of the meal when our friend asked someone else where it was. The waitress also argued with me about which biscuits went with which meal and that she served the ones that came with my meal to someone else at the table who had ordered a side of them. I had no gravy either which she argued about.All in all we did not feel welcome or well taken care of. When checking out the cashier Tammy also wasn’t friendly because I asked to speak with a manager about the breakfast experience. Just bad customer service altogether! Won’t be going back!”
“The sushi is good as well as the other Thai/Chinese dishes. Fair portion size for the price. It is not a cheap eats place, but I always have enough left over for a second meal the next day. Servers are friendly.”

“This was a monumental experience. I arrived at this location on the brink of starvation. but then out of the mist of hunger a hero arrived!!!! Who might be this hero you may ask? It was Shelia!!!!!! A true food warrior she brought me a feast fit for a king. And while making sure our cups were full the entire time, she took the time to talk and be friendly. It was an absolute pleasure to eat here 10/10Nuff said”
“Remember the old, fuller menu at Waffle House with like chicken, steaks, and salads? Turns out, they pared down the menu but the waitress said you can still order all of those items that they used to have. Certainly not at the prices they used to be though. . .We had an incredible dining experience at this fairly new waffle House. There were three patrons in front of us that we had to wait behind for a table. We were able to get a table within 10 to 15 minutes, and food was served extremely fast.Waffle House has given me similar experiences throughout the years, but this is the first time I ever realized that coffee was $3 a cup. Seems a bit on the spendy side, but if you get it to go cup I bet you can make it worth it.Hash browns are $3.75 plus $1 for each additional order. I think the best deal you can get is spending $5.75 on hash browns and having plenty left over to take home.The waitress was very friendly and very attentive. We were in and out within an hour and 15 minutes. Overall it was a great experience. All star breakfast was discounted down to $11.75. Wonder how long that'll last??♀️?Parking: The parking lot was a bit full when we went there. But there were spaces opening up.”
“ Good Stuff! - Prepare Your Sweet Tooth I experienced Frostbite Specialty Bakery through Black Cat Coffee in Titusville, where they feature a countertop display of assorted muffins and other baked desserts prepared by Frostbite.The Snickerdoodle muffin--my selection of choice--is an ample-sized delectable dessert--crumbly-crisp on the outside, soft and creamy on the inside. It was big enough to split with a friend, and I savored every bite. A serving of London Fog Tea on the side was the perfect complement. I saw dozens of other baked goods from Frostbite that I'll definitely be coming back to order (including those adorable mini muffin loafs)!”
“Rendezvous is NOT closed, I repeat it is NOT closed. It never closed, fake news. I have to go run the kitchen there in a few hours, so I know. It has been half way renamed, though the sign for Rendezvous is still there, the sign inside the hotel is now' H Street Grille'. Regardless Drinks and good food to be had. #Notclosed”
“$6.50 for this!! It was amazing! The best meatloaf I’d had in a long time homemade by miss Linda who was such a sweet and attentive bartender! This place is definitely a hidden gem and they’re open past two so it’s a great place to end your night or keep the party going!!”
“4 stars only because of what we ordered. they were out of several things that we should have gotten with our meal and we had to substitute. Still not a problem. I highly recommend going to this Denny's and not the one on 192 in Melbourne. The one on 192 is dirty and the ceiling is falling apart. This Denny's is clean and the servers are really good and informative. Plus they have better coffee than the other Denny's :)Parking: Decent amount of space for parking unless it's packed”
“Just went here. Its midnight. I have been sick and stuck at home for days. I finally had enough energy to shower and do a little laundry today. I was so tired and didn’t want to cook so I came to my local McDonald’s. The staff was friendly and kind. The food is perfect and exactly as I ordered it. The best part is, I ordered a large fry and we all know how hard it is to get a full container of large fries. Mine is filled to the top!!! Best McDonald’s ever!! Thank you all for making my day so much better. ?”
“It's McD. I don't care for their food....but I was on travel for work and makes an easy bite for breakfast in the carFood was what I come to expect from McD.Service was quick in the drive thru, and friendly enough for the 10s of interaction.Place seemed clean from what I could see.”
“We had an incredible experience from the friendliness from every team member to the incredible food and bubble tea! The bahn mi and crab rangoons were amazing and I would highly recommend the Thai red tea. The atmosphere was welcoming and clean.”
“For years, I have planned on eating at Makoto. Their famous dressing is always in my fridge at home. I finally had a chance and was not disappointed. A young couple eating next to us at the Hibachi table ordered the baked avocado, and it looked amazing. I asked her how it was, and she said, "10 out of 10 would recommend!" I would have to say the same about the food. It was really good.”
“My favorite restaurant! The food is amazing - I especially love the chicken shawarma and the batata harra. And the service is the best. Sara is very nice and attentive.”
Takeout Restaurants
“If you're from here, then you grew up coming here. Everything they offer is above and beyond! They have more toppings/flavors than any other place anywhere. They are always ready to experiment with new concoctions, the sky is the limit! This place is rightfully busy and absolutely with the wait. They ONLY TAKE CASH!! Don't be that person who orders and then can't believe they don't take cards. THEY. ONLY. TAKE. CASH.”
“THESE EMPLOYEES ARE THE KINDEST HUMANS IN ALL OF BREVARD. It's always such a delight to go to Indian River Coffee Company, not only are their drinks delicious and made with so much care but the staff always has a smile on their face and cheery attitudes. Ive caught myself on multiple occasions going out of the way of my rout to grab a drink from these guys just because of the radiant positivity their employees portray and the amazing service they provide. INCREDIBLE coffee. Best in Melbourne”
“The food quality seems to be dwindling! It is hit or miss and not consistent. We will keep trying every so often, but may stop if it doesn't go back to the way it was.”
“Great lill breakfast place. Little bit of a hidden gem. Always good food. Never any complaints. Getting a little dated on the inside. But won't stop me from eating there.”

“Fantastic! I had an amazing spinach and garlic calzone. The menu says it feeds 1-2 people, but it could have fed 3 in my opinion. My friend had a Philly cheese steak and said it was the best one he had ever had outside Philadelphia (where he is from). That's high praise. Fun atmosphere. Very reasonable prices, especially given the quantity (and quality) of food.”

So it’s also gonna be dinner this evening !!!! — at Fish Bellies Food Truck.”

“Boi they mess up my order every single time without a fail.NitroLess iceExtra foamBut place is good and staff is good too no complaints there.But sometimes I don't like asking to fix my order that means waste of money?Expensive coffee. If I stop spending money there I will save $260/ month and $3120/year duh!”
“Awesome crew. Let you try the item before you walk away so you know if you're going to like it. Reasonably priced. Great experience keep up the good work!!!”
“Never had their coffee, or any drink at all yet. But I'm working on the jobsite next door and they play Morgan Wallen all day so they get a 5 star from me UPDATE: Their coffee is amazing! Smooth 7 is where it's at!”
“I've been at this location multiple times.The service is always fast, friendly and correct.Today at the drive thru there were 7 in front me, I was through the line within 5 minutes. My food order was correct and hot. Inside is always clean and the staff is friendly and efficient.Best fast food restaurant between here and Cincinnati, Ohio.”
“Of course food is delicious, as always!They were really busy and seem to be having trouble getting the orders correct. My Cocoa (hot chocolate), Frozen Vanilla Custard was awesome, but even the small was too much for me! It was ssoooo good! Let my grandson finish it.”
“This place never fails to impress. I went there around 10:45 they closed at 11 and the food was still fresh not the end of the shift. It’s like having an old style burger joint on demand. Love it!!!”
“This place is clean and welcoming. The food is Fresh meats and sandwich veggies. I give it 5 stars because it is so fresh. I enjoyed the fresh bread and meats. I would recommend it over its competitors.”
“I had a minor issue with my sub today during what I know was a busy lunch situation, and the manager of the store took the time to call me and personally apologize for the issue. He was so kind and said they'd use it as a learning opportunity. You don't see customer service of that level these days anymore. Really amazing!”
“I just wanna take a minute to mention an employee at your Palm Bay Rd location. We came into eat and two of our favorites were out. Zavin greeted us and said would you like me to make these fresh for you. Three minutes topsAnd by God it was less than three minutes. Very impressed by his outstanding professionalism and quality of his food. String Bean Chicken and Broccoli Beef were the two dishes he cooked fresh for me. This young man is one of the most polite people I've ever encountered in a food establishment. And I'm pushing fifty years old. Outstanding job Zavin. Keep up the stellar work.”
“Unlike the large chain around here, multiple sizes are available. They have a lot more flavors as well for making a custom drink. Service was great, store is very clean.”
“The food is truly delicious and different from most of the restaurants in Brevard County. The dishes are not huge but carefully presented and tasty. The restaurant is a small and tastefully decorated. One of the nicest features is the ability to have a conversation with your group. Noisy restaurants seem to be the norm today everywhere, not only in Florida.”
“What a gem! They have an incredible all vegan menu but don’t think they’re all about greens and beans! In addition to your classic vegan fare they also have a great selection of indulgent plant based meat and plant based cheese dishes that you literally wouldn’t know the difference if you didn’t know it wasn’t meat/dairy. Please go try their trash fries! And also the lavender lemonade. Just wowza. The best part is when you’re done eating you feel GREAT and not overly full, bloated/gassy. Service is also always great!”

Bean Sprout
“Finally a nice sit down Asian restaurant. The menu has a good variety, both lunches were excellent and matched the friendly service we received. Interesting to see this was founded by 2 young mothers. We will be back.”
Cheap Eats
“Best homemade cakes ever and Denise, the owner, and the team are wonderful!Michael, my other half, needs a cake fix weekly and we send cakes as gifts to everyone we love and they are always a huge hit! Thanks Denise for making gift giving easy.If you like chocolate try "Death by Chocolate." My best friend loves the Key Lime Pie. And, for my teams who weren't into chocolate the Carrot Cake was a huge hit. She has gluten free also, if needed.”
“Some of the most addicting food I have ever gotten the pleasure to eat! I absolutely love this place and the people who run it. Everyone is super sweet and treats me like family.. I typically get the mixed grill platter for 2 to 3 people and it makes 6 full plates of food! This is by far some of the best food in Brevard.”
“Ruben an Fries were fantastic. Love how the fries are done. I am usually a Ketchup on fries person but no need for anything. Perfect in every way.On next visit we got the Coney Island dogs. Nah, just Hormel tasting chili w/out beans. Not even close to a true Coney. They were good but never again. True Coney has no chili type sauce, just flavored meat. Also the onions need to be chopped a lot finer, almost minced but not quite, I could tell them how to make it but I’m sure they are not interested. Want a perfect Coney, Virginia Coney Island in Jackson Michigan, lots of awards won, plus only $2 each. We will be back to try other menu items.”
“This restaurant is the best my best friend works here and all the workers are great the place is always clean and sanitized I can't wait to go back here you all don't wanna miss this great ”
“This brunch restaurant is such a unique experience with the pancake griddle in front of you with tons of options to decorate your pancake in amazing flavors and toppings. I received excellent service from the staff. It's definitely a busy spot but I understand why! The servers are equipped at handling the busy environment and very prompt and tentative to their customers. Absolutely go here if you're in the area looking for the best brunch spot around.”
“Quick bite for lunch with my son. Service was efficient and food was delicious. They also have alternatives for those with different nutritional needs. Fast casual dining was perfect for lunch!”
“Before I rate them, I have to ding myself for not taking pictures to post. Blame it the fact I dug right in to my meal The burger place is cute and we were lucky enough to go on a day cool enough to sit outside on their patio. I ordered a hamburger with mushrooms and a tomato and, of course, fries on the side. My dining companion had a burger with everything on it and a large side of fries. The burger was very good and the fries thin and crispy but the bun .. the bun was the star because oh my it was stellar. I am going back - soon. By the way - I finished everything which I don't often do, and helped finish my partner's large fries.”
“Been wanting to stop here but since they close at 2 pm I always miss my opportunity. lolToday being out on PTO, decided to treat myself to lunch so I stopped in. Got me a roast beef melt with potato salad as my side. Cool place. Lots of sandwich, subs options. Definitely will come back with the hubby.”
“Excellent Falafel, Shawrama, and Hummas. Extremely clean place and the owners were very pleasant. If I lived in the area it would be a regular place to eat for me.”
“Great breakfast and everything else! Been here twice for breakfast and once for lunch (pictured) Stromboli was excellent and HUGE. Leftovers lasted me for 3 days of lunches. Pizza and other dishes very good. The breakfasts are very well priced and also tasty. They had a variety of the usual omelets, meats, eggs, and pancakes. Service was consistently friendly and efficient. Ambiance was New Yorkish and fit the food. Give them a try!”
“Delicious. Dependable. Affordable after school snacks for the boba/sushi/sashimi enthusiasts. Also great crochet gifts for cash available in many varieties. Very vibrant and happy place.Vegetarian options: Krab, tofu, and egg options for substitute.Dietary restrictions: Easy if ur gfcf or anything u can dream up to eat on meatless Monday!”
“The food is always amazing! Every bite has the umami you want to experience from a meal. From the Sawadeezle to the Pad Woon Sen to the spring rolls and E.G. Rolls. The Thai tea is absolutely amazing as well. You can’t go wrong with fresh cooked to order entrees from a local small business that cares about the community.”
“Heading home today after a mini-vacay in St Augustine. We love Melbourne, so we stopped in last night for a quick stay. We always prefer local coffee shops, and this one did not disappoint. Super friendly and helpful; the barista took the time to look up the names of a couple antique shops when I asked for recommendations and wrote them down for me. The merch was very affordable. Picked up some stickers and socks, and this adorable Friends cookie jar which I may or may not give to a friend... Thanks ladies!”
“The spinach pie and Greek salad were spectacular! The two-dollar slice of baklava was one of the best I've ever had! The service is always fast and friendly! I love this locally owned place!Vegetarian options: Greek salad, veggie wraps, cheese pizza, spinach pie”
“My church crew and I went to Flying Burro after hearing much praise about it. Also, I wanted to see how much the old Long John Silver's building has changed since the newest Mexican restaurant has taken over the building. Upon entering, you can tell the overall setup is still the old Long John Silver's, but it looks... well.. cleaner. Not to mention, the color and ambiance has been updated to fit a Mexican restaurant. The queue/line is similar to ordering your food at a fast food restaurant... but trust me, you're not getting fast food, you're getting pretty good Mexican, albeit somewhat Tex Mexxy, still good. I ordered the lechon dinner. Since my family is from the Philippines, I have a love for lechon because it is a staple food in our cuisine. Ergo, this "bacon on crack" was good, but I digress that you can get better lechon from most Thrifty Produce markets. The big burrito was... well... big and from what my friend Rachel ate, it was loaded with a lot of ingredients that make it delicious. The quesidilla looked good but didn't have enough sides in my opinion. Finally, the loaded fries were delicious. You can add whatever toppings they offer to them too to fit your preference. The one thing I did not notice until after my meal were the specials written on a chalkboard and the fact breakfast is served all day. If I knew breakfast was served all day, I would have ordered myself some huevos rancheros. Overall, a very good initial visit to Flying Burro. Price of food is reasonable. Food overall is delicious, better than most but not the best of the best the Space Coast has to offer. Learning they have daily specials and all-day breakfasts adds another positive in their favor, too. For now, I am giving Flying Burro four out of five stars. Loved how this mom-and-pop does well on its own, but are they consistent? We will find out. If they are just as good after a couple more visits, they will earn their fifth star.”
“My wife and I had a wonderful lunch food is of the hook good. We were treated like family I can't say enough great things. Please go you won't regret it.????”

Metro Diner
“This was our first time at this Metro Diner and we will be back! We’ve had it before coming from Jax FL but now this is our new home and we’re happy to have visit this location. Our server Teek was awesome! Her suggestions went great with what I was looking for. Her energy was amazing! Will be back for sure!!! Thanks, Teek!”
“My daughter and I like to grab lunch here when possible. The staff has always been in point and friendly. Food comes reasonably quick for lunch and I have been extremely happy with both the burrito and fajitas. My daughter loves one of the chicken and cheese dishes and I have tried it and it's been really good. We definitely plan to go back and the prices are a good value.”

321 Poké
“This is my ABSOLUTE favorite poke spot in Brevard! The tuna never tastes fishy and they give you Huge amounts of each item for great prices! The owner is the most friendly dude! Please come and support him and the good food he’s putting out!!!!”
“Awesome atmosphere, great staff, and delicious food and beer. We went on a chilly night and they had fires and warmers going. Very spacious and nice/various seating options. Can't wait to visit here again.”
“We had a great experience today, the ambiance is very cool and I’ve always loved the boba tea so we wanted to give the food a try! Between my boyfriend & I we ordered 2 bubble teas, 2 ramen soups and an appetizer for $50 all including extra things that I added to my ramen, that’s pretty great especially compared to other places prices nowadays. We’ll definitely be back.”
“We ate there tonight and were totally impressed. We had the family meal: antipasta salad, 12 wings, 12 garlic rolls and a large 1 topping pizza. Everything was delicious, service great and had a nice conversation with the owner. I own a restaurant and love local places that do things right. I hope this place has great success. ?”
“Excellent food at great prices. The Chef (owner?) Went above and beyond to make our experience excellent. The Dynamite mussels were amazing. As well as the spicy fried rice. Sushi was very fresh. Service was attentive. Highly recommend. Excellent value for your money.”
“My husband and I stopped here on our trip to get some snow crab. It was good but it would have been better if they knew more about gluten free food and what was ok or not. We didn’t feel they knew what it was and we were not able to speak to a chef due to a language barrier which didn’t help. It was nice that they changed the water for us and we don’t believe there was a reaction. Over all it was a decent, fast place to get crab.Dietary restrictions: The snow crab boil with the regular seasoning is safe. Ask for them to change the water if they can.”
“A quiet, hidden gem for those who enjoy Polish food. The golabki (stuffed cabbage) was delicious, but my wife was disappointed by the pierogi. But she makes her own, so she's tough to please. The other Polish food experts in my group were all very happy with their meals. We will definitely be returning soon.”
“This place was so good!! Visited some friends from out of town & they brought us to the dove. The food was delicious and the service was even better. They even give you bread & lemon cello shots. I highly recommend the chicken marsala.”

“We are lucky to have Chef Toni in Brevard! Thank you for an absolutely incredible meal! Every bite was delicious and service was 10/10! I cannot wait to come back!”

Thai Kitchen
“Fantastic lunch specials! I thoroughly enjoyed my Panang Curry dish with chicken and lots of vegetables! The restaurant is small, quaint and has been here for a long, long time. Included with the lunch special is a cup of their soup of the day, and a spring roll. All of this for $9.95 plus tax!Vegetarian options: So many ways to combine vegetables with sauces, and Rice or Noodles.”
“The best and most authentic Brazilian food in all of Brevard County. Restaurant is always exceptionally clean and the friendly folks who work there always greet you with a smile. 10/10 would recommend!!”
“This place is a wonderful place for date night, anniversary or all occasions or even enjoying the company of good friends. Go check them out. Customer service and all was AMAZING! Food and drinks were DELICIOUS!”
“Beer from around the world.Super knowledgeable bar staff.Small, but I love it.I’d only recommend this place if you enjoy beers from around the US.Food is fantastic, but the mushrooms (baby boulders w/ chili) aren’t great ?Everything else is great.I love coming here to watch football!!”
“Bridgette and Tiana at the bar were absolutely amazing. This is the best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had and I’ve actually been to the Mediterranean so that’s saying something. The drinks are unique and outstanding. I don’t have enough great things to say. Flavors of food and drinks—AMAZING!!! It’s hard to find authentic flavor with good service in this area. We will definitely be back.”
“This place gave me the impression of being a sandwich shop, but I was fooled. This place is more like a fine dining restaurant. I had the Philly cheese steak. Boy that was one great little meal. Tessa was my friendly and attentive server. The atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming, the sweet tea was delicious and the facility and restrooms were very clean. I found this place to be very relaxing and romantic.”
“Where do I start … it was a pleasant surprise, we were supposed to go to another restaurant but it was closed and we came to Manny's so glad we did !! I’m Italian descendant and my mom made The best gnocchi and this one got a 5 ⭐️ thank you for keeping it authentic it will be my to go Italian restaurant from now on !! Great service well done Manny”
“Went here for lunch in the middle of this past week. There was only one other group besides us. The service was very attentive and provided great customer service. The menu has many Cajun items available, which made me happy to see. Some say they are Cajun, and really are not. But this is the real deal.After difficult decision was made of what to order I went with the Jambalaya, the others ordered red beans and rice and Vegan Jambalaya. All very tasty with their own distinct taste and spices. I was pleased with the amount of meat and seafood in the jambalaya as some can get stingy, but not here. The red beans and rice were very tasty and took me back to the days living in LA. I also had a taste of the vegan jambalaya, and this was also tasty with a good combination of vegetables in it. They also include a list of vegan options on their menu.Oh, I almost forgot, we started off with the fried green tomatoes. Very pleased with this dish also, it included shrimp on top of the tomatoes and remoulade sauce had a great taste and added to it!If you want some authentic cajun food, this is the place in Melbourne. Kudos to the cook the day we were there and to the server also.”
“First time there. Service was excellent. Friendly and informative staff. The food was excellent. We ordered the chicken pot pie, lobster bisque, shepherds pie, dragon stew and bread. Even our fussiest eater loved it all. We can't wait to return.Parking: shopping center location”
“I absolutely love this place. I could literally come in the morning for backwater breakfast, then go directly next-door to salsas for some awesome chips and queso, empanadas, burritos, tacos, and chips and salsa. Every time I come in this place, everyone is so kind, sometimes the food takes little longer than expected, but it is 1000% worth of weight. I definitely recommend this place and 100% recommend the chips and guac appetizer and the queso shrimp enchiladas for entrée. I also recommend the margaritas. They are very strong definitely worth the price. Overall, this place is better than every other Mexican restaurant in Brevard county. I will be coming back weekly!!!!”
“Just recently started going to Chumley’s, and I’m astounded every time by the fantastic service, warm welcomes, and friendly faces. Pirate and Dez quickly welcomed me to the bar family, and it’s has become my new haunt in Florida- even if it’s a thirty minute drive! Never a bad time, saddle in, grab a beer, chat to some great people, and get to know Pirate, Dez, or any of the other wonderful staff at Chumley’s- you won’t be disappointed!”
“This was my 1st visit and it was nice. Friendly staff, place was clean even though they were a little busy. Pretty friendly on the deck was awesome! Only had the gator bites and a mixed drink but they were great! Can't wait to visit ”
“Best take out food ever. We eat here atleast once a week. It's so hard to find good takeout places in Brevard but Jao Thia knows what's up. I can't say much for sitting inside and what that experience is like. We've never had a problem with service. Place is always packed so from what i can see. Their sushi is the best sushi I've had in Florida and their yellow curry is to die for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“La Crepe de France is a hidden gem in the Viera/Suntree area. The service was attentive, food absolutely incredible, and the atmosphere comfortable. We had a Benedict crepe, salmon Benedict crepe, and the banana French toast and all three were delicious. We can’t wait to come back with friends and family!”
“I have only been here twice the second time for my birthday dinner but actually a couple of days before my birthday, My wife and I remembered how much we liked everything about Siam Orchid when we were there so I decided that's what I wanted for my birthday dinner. Anyway the subject came up and before we left they bought all 4 of us an amazing dessert. The place the people and the food ARE INCREDIBLE!!!! I highly recommend going..... REPEATEDLY!!! The Dunken noodles (just saying) ?”
“AMAZING place to go to!!! We were on vacation and came twice! Wonderful service from the same server both times (THANK YOU NICK!!!!) and real food! PERFECTLY cooked steak! No cut corners with quality! The drinks were delicious! There's nothing bad I could possibly say! We'll be back every year we're here!”
“The food was Absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. Homemade sauces, generous portions, and Meatballs you can slide a fork through. Our server, Becky, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. But not overly friendly, she knew when to stay and when to leave; this was Definitely the best experience we’ve had in a very long time and the amount of gluten-free Options was impressive.Dietary restrictions: All of the sauces and toppings are available for gluten free guests for the craft your own pasta.”
“To be honest, this was better than I expected. The food was so good. They know how to make a good hollandaise sauce and the homemade whipped cream was too die for! We couldn't decide between sweet or savory so we got one of each and split them (Floretine and Berry). I could've licked the plates! Our waitress was super friendly, too. What a great find!”
“Fantastic food! I like to go at least once a month. Med spice is good. Indian spice is deadly. I think the wife gets Indian hot so I won’t eat hers. But it’s so good I will still nibble on hers as well.Vegetarian options: Had the veggie samosas. I thought they were better than the Chicken samosas.”
“We picked melting pot for our anniversary celebration because we have had so many good experiences there. Unfortunately this didn't live up to that. After watching our oil bill for 15 minutes with no food arriving I searched for the waitress. She brought our food but explained we were waiting for them to make sauces 15 minutes later after another reminder we got them. Probs were good but others were at Best average. We enjoyed the night but left disappointed and will rethink where we go for future special events going forward.”
“Good food, but super slow! Server was great as she kept coming over to check on us, but 45 minutes for breakfast is a bit much. Would give it a try again when we have eaten a bit before going. Benedict was good, but eggs were over poached. The hollandaise was not split, though so loved that. Beware: charges extra for buttery grits for some reason.”
“We had 30 to 45 minute wait, but we were able to sit at the bar and enjoy a drink and appetizer. We ordered fried oysters. They were served hot and were tender and delicious. Our servers were very friendly and attentive.”
“The food is delicious, everything prepared with care and made right there.I found special care for women, as they provide external and internal absorbent pads in the bathroom.”
“I had visited this place first time in 2006. I am happy that this authentic outlet is still in business in spite of ups n downs in US economy including frightening Covid.”
“Food was wonderful: Had blackened shrimp tacos (three) which were filled with lots of large shrimp and hubby had the mac jerk chicken sandwich which were both very tasty. Julia at the bar was wonderful! Service was awesome! Nice view across from the ICW near the Pineda Causeway. We will definitely be coming back!”
“Walk-ons in Melbourne is awesome! Camryn is the best waitress I have ever had. We came in late at night with 24 people, half of them children, and she was positive and professional the entire time. Very impressed!!”

Mi Jalisco
“Best Mexican around! Great food, awsome menu options, super clean restaurant. With a great atmosphere. Eat inside or out. Plenty of parking easy acess off Wickham rd.”
“I was craving some Mexican food on the drive down from Orlando found this place online. It is delicious!! So excited that I went there, there aren't many good places to eat Mexican food. Will definitely be going back.”
“Went here last night for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised. Wait time for a table during prime rush time on Saturday night with spring breakers was 30-45 minutes for a table of 2 which is understandable. We quickly found a spot at the bar outside and decided to dine there. The outside is really nice and they had some live music that wasn't super loud. Wife got the risotto and I got the Caribbean chicken bowl. Both were very good and reasonably priced. Food took a bit to come out but the nice seating outside on the river and knowing you're there during a crazy rush makes it fine. They even comped a glass of wine for the long wait which they definitely didn't need to do as we didn't complain at all and we're content just chilling. All in all this place easily made it into our top 5 favorite places down here when you factor in everything. We will 100% be coming back.”

Chart House
“We came on a Friday during lent, and the grouper was cooked perfectly, along with my wife's scallops, and that does say a lot about a place.Everyone raves about the lava cake, it was good, not great but the price for it was really good.Would come again, no problem.”
“Delicious food. I refer to eat at home so we always get takeout. The portions are large. The crab and avocado salad is so good, but it's a whole meal for me. So always fun to have guests and share.”
“What a place!! One of the best Indian foods I’ve ever eaten in my life! Definitely recommended, atmosphere’s great, service is excellent, super tasty food and 100% original. Place is super clean, and has a good location. Do visit here! They give you entree also with your order.”
“Great experience. Our server was top-notch. We had country ham, country fried steak, and chicken burger. Serving sizes were above average. Even our 5ft 9in 14yo grandson was unable to finish his massive chicken burger. Cost was decent with the three meals costing $55. Well worth the headache of heading to the 'Avenues' for lunch!”

Olympia Cafe
“This place is by far the best Greek food shop in Melbourne! The Gyro is so good I had to stop and make sure I was still in Florida! It's a family-owned establishment, Papa is at the grill and Mama is at the register. I can't say enough about this place except why haven't I come here before?!?!?! All this for $12.50! Best lunch in Melbourne bar none.Parking out front is tough, but plenty of spots out back.Parking: Park behind the building, the back door of the cafe is open. Much much easier parking.”
“An INCREDIBLE place to go no matter what you're in the mood for! Food? AMAZING! Drinks? SO TASTY! Service? TOP NOTCH! And Music? STELLAR! Catch the band Picture Show for a great time! All the makings of an awesome experience!”

Island IX
“This is the best hidden gem in Brevard! The food is amazing, the atmosphere is fun, relaxed and most importantly fresh and clean and the food comes out fast and is delivered by friendly polite staff!!”
“I was craving a lemonade and sliders and this place did not disappoint. My impulse order also included cheese curds and funnel cake fries (yes you read that right!). Overall it was a great experience and we will be back again.”
“They serve huge plates of food, I thought I would take leftovers, but it was so tasty, I ate it all. The employee told me: "you did good" and I told him: "no, YOU did good." Very good place, very attentive employees.”
“Have always loved the cracker barrel for 20 plus years or more. Don't ever recall having a disappointing meal this place was no different had a nice waitress, very pleasant. Food was hot and tasty always always can recommend ”
“Visited here for breakfast for the first time and LOVED it! The ambience is so cute.. loved the tablecloths and all decorations! Food and coffee was amazing! I can appreciate the option for plant based milk options too! Julia, our server was attentive, caring and super sweet! Will definitely be back! Highly recommend!”
“Beware of the alligator, (see photos) he tried to bite me, but was no match for my karate. The reef burger was thick and juicy, the fish tacos were sweet and tangy, and the alligator eggrolls were toothy..... just kidding, they were super yummy. This place was great. Cheers!”
“I love this place so much. I love it even better than Fogo de Chao or Texas de Brazil. The food is such good quality and tastes amazing including the appetizers, the service is phenomenal, and it’s just always a magical time. Ask for Leila, Alejandra, Olga, or Martin. They are wonderful!!! ❤️❤️”
“Delicious food, the line dancing lessons are great fun and got me moving lol. The workers were nice kind of took a will for food though. No big deal. Overall really good atmosphere, local, friendly.”
“Have been wanting to try Nitro Sushi since hearing from coworkers feedback. Tracked them down to Suntree tonight. They will cater to how hot or not you want. The service was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately the food truck was parked behind the Suntree plaza but people were still finding them. I advise people that if you want some very good sushi, keep track of them on their website. They may be serving from a parking lot from a food truck but it's the best sushi roll we've had.”
“Jaelynn gives the best service with customers and makes amazing drinks great personality and homey feeling…. I would suggest for my friends and many others to come and enjoy the (Ms. Jaelynn) ”

Ember & Oak
“Went to Ember and Oak downtown Melbourne for their happy hour today. Hostess, busser, food runner and waiter were all very good. Server came over, introduced himself and asked if it was a special occasion and I told him that it was both of our birthdays. He said happy birthday. I ordered a sour apple martini, which was supposed to be $8.00 during happy hour and he confirmed it was on happy hour. Asked for Tito’s as the vodka and was told it might be two dollars more, and I said OK. Asked if Jack on the Rocks was part of happy hour, and was told probably. Ordered the Swedish meatballs, excellent. Ordered the 10 oz sirloin steak board. Food was excellent and plentiful , prepared as ordered. Asked to substitute French fries for the side of mushrooms, told no problem. Ordered coffee with cream and sugar, put it in the coffee and it was overly sweet. Looked at the packet of what I thought was sugar because that’s what I asked for and saw that it was actually Splenda. Mentioned this to the server when he brought the check over and he did not even offer to replace the cup of coffee that sat there not consumed. Check came and was charged five dollars more for Tito’s and five dollars more for the board. I didn’t order an extra side. I asked to substitute the French fries for the mushrooms and was not told that there would be an additional charge. Did not offer a complimentary dessert for our birthdays; did not go expecting anything, but why ask if it is a special occasion if you are not going to do/offer something? Everything was good……just not an “We have to tell our friends about this place and come back”. Maybe I expected more of a “Wow” experience from this high end restaurant.”
“Excellent hibachi restaurant! Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Service was prompt and food was delicious! Beers were ice cold and the ambiance was very warm. I came with my family(including kids) but I also saw people come here on dates. I think this restaurant is actually able to serve/accommodate both crowds!”
“This is a fast casual restaurant that is well-run and a pleasure to visit.Emily is an especially intuitive employee. Upon ordering, even though we did not mention we were vegan or vegetarian, she perceived it as we were ordering things w/o cheese, etc. Emily then proactively let us know the rice pilaf was prepped with beef broth, which we appreciated.The place is casual with a setup similar to a Chipotle. The food quality was excellent -- every item.All staff remains busy even during customer lulls, which is why I mention the place is well-run. The dining room is kept clean.Food comes out fast and is brought to your table.Very impressed!”
“My family and I really enjoyed our meal at Longhorn. John was our server and did an excellent job. My steak was cooked perfectly, and the seasoning was delicious. Longhorn has more options then most competing steakhouses for my kids who have food allergies. Gluten free fries are hard to find so we were pleased that Lonhorn had them. The kids also liked the choices of 3 different lemonades! The restaurant and bathrooms are clean, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing. We will be back!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free fries with no cross contaminationKid-friendliness: Excellent children meals and drink choices”

Crafty Crab
“Been here 10+ times. Usually get it to go. The food has always been flavorful. I get the snow crab and lobster tail. My wife gets the snow crab and shrimp. We LOVE spicy food so we always get "The Boom, Fire" and the mix is always good. I usually add a 1/2lb of sausage to my bag, which is really good as well. The red potatoes and corn go great with It. I also highly recommend getting the Hush Puppies as well. Great Food and Great Customer Service. The interior could be better and more welcoming. Also recommend the owner put in a long sink with multiple faucets for washing hands.”
“Straight Outta Philly (Local Chain Review) 4250 N. Wickham Rd., Melbourne, FL 329354.5 StarI've had takeout from Straight Outta Philly on several occasions; however, this was my first time stepping inside any one of their three locations. As I found the owner, Mike Grillakis manning the counter along with the delightful and knowledgeable K.C. helping out, I certainly made the correct choice in locations! As I mentioned, I have had takeout before and it has always been outstanding. In-person, I asked K.C. for one Elijah's Pepperoni Addiction Cheese Steak and one loaded Italian Stallion Hoagie.While Mike was working his magic on making my order, I asked K.C. if I could have a sample of their Gyro meat. While it was not on a spit, as your official dragoman, I can assure you it is the real deal Gyro meat. I have spoken. Taking a seat, I snapped some pics and waited for my sandwiches.First up on my palate was Elijah's Pepperoni Addiction Cheese Steak. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times: the key to any fantastic sandwich is the bread. If the bread sucks, the rest is moot. I failed to ask (my bad), so I don't know if Mike makes his own bread on-site or if he purchases it fresh every morning. Regardless, it is spectacular. The bread is fresh, warm, flaky on the outside and chewy on the inside. Perfecto! The toppings were on par with the base as the flavors magnificently mingled in my mouth.Turning my attention to the Loaded Italian Stallion Hoagie was not an easy thing to accomplish, but for the sake of you, the reader, I managed to succeed. Again, the sandwich bread was extraordinary and the toppings were fresh, tasty, crunchy, savory and overall amazing. What a fantastic Hoagie! Hey! Fast food sandwich chains, (I'm talking to you Jersey Mike's and Subway), pay heed to this guy!It is obvious to the casual observer that Mike and his employees care about the hash they sling and it shows through with love. If more restaurant owners were like Mr. Grillakis, Brevard County would become a dining Mecca of the Southeast.The Big Boy says, “...as I leave, believe I'm stompin'/But when I come back boy, I'm coming straight outta Philly (Philly, Philly, Philly). OK, so I can't rap, but you can do your taste buds a favor and head over to your nearest Straight Outta Philly location. You won't be disappointed.””
“The Vietnamese coffee was great! Service was top tier so I didn't feel like I was another number The establishment is very old school cozy feel which I loved I highly recommend”
“We had a beautiful Valentines dinner at Asado. Delicious empanadas & shrimp roasted corn soup. Perfectly cooked filet, topped with crab cake & jumbo shrimp. Ending our meal with a decadent chocolate brownie al a mode.The atmosphere, music, food & staff made for a perfect evening!!!”
“Just had there chicken bowl and dumplings. Both are very good. Suprisingly good, hence my review. Chicken bowl w rice and 2 peices of sushi was a nice touch. Kind service too, thanks fellas. Chicken was eaten before picture was taken, sushi not for me so no review on that. 5 stars.”
“Stopped in at the place after the Ren Fair and It was a great spot! They really don’t speak English very well, but understand you clearly. Stop by here!! Great food and decent prices.”

“This is a great place to enjoy a drink after work, after sightseeing, before dinner, or before bed. Fining a friend to talk to, usually someone else staying at the hotel, was easy!”
“Great place and atmosphere to enjoy probably some of the best wings around. Hard to choose from the 50 or so flavors on the menu. Haven’t found a flavor I haven’t liked yet. Dine in or To-go.”
“Best Thai food around. I just discovered this awesome truck is parked here. I used to wait all month in hopes to find them at cocoa beach Friday Fest before they sold out! Now I can drive over in 15 mins to fix my crazing for their basil chicken. Worth the drive! Superb, family run restaurant with authentic and fresh flavors.”
“Don't let the outside fool you ! The food was amazing!! For the price I feel it was outstanding! Yes go on a day where you can eat outside because i personally did not like the inside environment. Also drink selections were meh . BUT THE FOOD WAS AWESOME!!! Garlicky,buttery and yumminess!”
“Love this place! Great outdoor and dog friendly patio. Chill vibe with an authentic Irish Pub look and feel. Anna was our server and she was awesome. The beer cheese condiment that came with the pretzel was the best ever. We'll be back!”

“Heading home today after a mini-vacay in St Augustine. We love Melbourne, so we stopped in last night for a quick stay. We always prefer local coffee shops, and this one did not disappoint. Super friendly and helpful; the barista took the time to look up the names of a couple antique shops when I asked for recommendations and wrote them down for me. The merch was very affordable. Picked up some stickers and socks, and this adorable Friends cookie jar which I may or may not give to a friend... Thanks ladies!”
“This place gave me the impression of being a sandwich shop, but I was fooled. This place is more like a fine dining restaurant. I had the Philly cheese steak. Boy that was one great little meal. Tessa was my friendly and attentive server. The atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming, the sweet tea was delicious and the facility and restrooms were very clean. I found this place to be very relaxing and romantic.”

“Went here for lunch in the middle of this past week. There was only one other group besides us. The service was very attentive and provided great customer service. The menu has many Cajun items available, which made me happy to see. Some say they are Cajun, and really are not. But this is the real deal.After difficult decision was made of what to order I went with the Jambalaya, the others ordered red beans and rice and Vegan Jambalaya. All very tasty with their own distinct taste and spices. I was pleased with the amount of meat and seafood in the jambalaya as some can get stingy, but not here. The red beans and rice were very tasty and took me back to the days living in LA. I also had a taste of the vegan jambalaya, and this was also tasty with a good combination of vegetables in it. They also include a list of vegan options on their menu.Oh, I almost forgot, we started off with the fried green tomatoes. Very pleased with this dish also, it included shrimp on top of the tomatoes and remoulade sauce had a great taste and added to it!If you want some authentic cajun food, this is the place in Melbourne. Kudos to the cook the day we were there and to the server also.”
“Very nice restaurant. Kim was super nice and helpful. The Calzone and Pizza was amazing. Fresh ingredients and fantastic bread/dough. The decor is upscale and inviting. The Cauliflower Bites were tender inside and just right crispness outside. The garlic ranch basil dip was delicious.”
“First time in and thrilled to find a place that caters to health and taste!! This is REAL food! They use coconut oil to fry which is one of the only oils that doesn’t go rancid when heated too high.I got the MangoSop juice, Turkey sausage and chickpea fritters and vegetable stew!!The juice is like eating a real mango and having soursop is an added bonus as that is a cancer fighter!! The fritters are so warm and yummy almost like a savory funnel cake and the vegetable stew has a curry flavor and the essence of being made at home by your mama!!!”
“My favorite restaurant! The food is amazing - I especially love the chicken shawarma and the batata harra. And the service is the best. Sara is very nice and attentive.”

“Took my daughter to Coasters for lunch today. I've eaten here often and always had good food in a congenial environment. We were enjoying some beverages and the sunshade suddenly collapsed on top of me. I wasn't hurt in any way, but the staff was excellent. They had us at a new table with fresh drinks and a delicious meal. They're a great place to eat.”
