We arrived at 11 am for Brunch. Great experience all around. Food Service Ambience! My first bite of The Tiramisu Waffles made we want to bang the table. So good. The Crab Cake Benedict had large chunks of fresh crab. Perfect. My Hubz ordered Steak and potatoes. The med well steak was so tender. The large side of bacon was "clean" and crispy. The iced tea was fresh and sweetened perfectly. Our server was smiling and attentive throughout. Definitely Will recommend!

Not only was the food amazing but our waiter, Reise, was extremely knowledgeable in the world of modern cuisine and walked us through every step of the process of how the food is made and how the drinks are crafted. This gave a really amazing insight to how Crush XI creates beautiful masterpieces of food and drink. I would highly recommend this to anyone planning of having more than just “a meal” but a dining experience!
Great brunch, very fun environment. Stepping it up in Melbourne! The food was delicious and service was great.

Sadly, I didn't write my review timely enough to remember everything we had when we were in town, but I do recall that the food and service were both fantastic! What I do remember: The crush salad - romaine, bacon, aged cheddar and tomato. I was disappointed in the flavor of the dressing or the cheese, so I would go with a different salad next time. Burrata - compari tomato jam, pesto, heirloom grape tomatoes, grilled sourdough bread. Medjool Dates - millionaire bacon, goat cheese, grilled pineapple, and red wine gastrique. Smoked Duck Fettucini - tea-scented fettuccini, cremini mushrooms, pistachios, dried cherries, crumbled duck cracklings. I loved the interior even though it was significantly different from the Cocoa Village location it had been in prior. I also loved that we had a table in the back room that didn't house very many tables, so it was a nice intimate spot for dining. This restaurant still remains one of my favorites in Brevard County. I will be back!

Very disappointed in the food here. Should have been aware that Sunday lunch was not full menu and only brunch. Had date appetizer and when I say it came out burnt the first time man I'm telling you char coal brick style. Re-cook was lessened to a mild char but still had bitter taste. Girlfriend got shrimp and grits and grits had after taste of dish soap and was awful but she ate the shrimp because we was hungry and done with the place. My egg sandwich had burnt poblano peppers, char burnt! Sausage was far burnt and so was bun. Egg was over easy to perfection though. I went to this place a few years back and had pork chop and it was delicious but can't say I'd ever give this place a chance again it was just to bad. Had the manager bothered to check on me considering I'd sent back my appetizer I'd let him know about my meal. However I passed by him in his office on my way to the bathroom and he was pretty busy texting on his phone seeing how the were like 5 customers in the whole place. Get a clue people!!!!! $75 for shrimp-n-grits, date app & egg sandwich demands way better!!! Price includes a healthy tip fyi.....

We had not been to Crush XI since they moved from Cocoa to Melbourne but they were just as good as we remembered. The restaurant is comfortable with nice decor, although we were seated right in front of the kitchen, which detracted from the experience. The service and food were spectacular. The food is pricey but worth it for a special evening out. The portion size is perfect, not too big. We will definitely return.
so yummy-licious, our server was so awesome and knowledgeable, she made great recommendations and we also had the baked brie appetizer and crème brûlée for dessert. overall fantastic atmosphere and it was the perfect valentines dinner spot! they even gave me a rose at the end of our dinner

I don't normally leave reviews but Crush's food tastes like an elevated cuisine that you could find in a Michelin star restaurant. Really excellent! Service and ambiance is also excellent. I recommend the steak with avocado mash :)
They have quiet seating, energetic bar seating areas, The food was absolutely fantastic and the waitress was exceptional, knew the entire menu it seemed with fantastic recommendations on cocktails and food. The aesthetic of the restaurant was questionable in some area but overall a wonderful evening.

Great ambiance and the food is fantastic. Cool Vibe and craft cocktails. I'll be back. This place is a must eat.

First and foremost, service is excellent. Our waiter Kurt, was well informed about all aspects of the menu including the cocktails and wines. The menu is just big enough: lots of choices but not so many that you suspect they can't manage it. All the food was served as ordered, well prepared and also looked nice on the plate. Portion sizes are just right. Indoor and outdoor seating.
