“My wife and I went on a date tonight to Longhorn in Merritt island. Ashley H was our waitress. Ashley is an amazing waitress. She was very friendly and attentive but not overbearing. Thank you for the great experience.”

“My son and I ate here for lunch and he loved it. He’s been asking to go here for some time. He loves sushi and I knew he would enjoy it. Our waitress whose name was Faith, I believe, was also super sweet too. Nice little place and atmosphere and great food! We will definitely be back. He wants to try the whole menu.”

“A group of us went for the early bird special -which is an amazing deal- and ate so much flavorful, juicy, fresh meat! Tried and liked them all. They have a large tasty 3 station salad and hot bar to fill up on as well. Try it once at least! (you'll want to go back). Staff is very friendly, helpful and casual; it's fine dining without the uncomfortable stiffness that often comes with fine dining. Chef was taking requests. Not crowded and they were cool with us hanging out talking for a long time after our meal. Great cheesy rolls. Highly recommend.”

“Highly recommend Outback Steakhouse. Big shout out to our waitress Hope. We had a party of 8 and she got our order right and offered drink refills several times. She was very friendly and provided great service.”

“We had a lovely lunch in a relaxing setting. Our food was delicious and service was great. I will be back!”

“Dejlig frokost vi fik rejer med pasta og laks”

“It was a bit confusing when we first went in. We ordered burgers and fries with drinks on the kiosk. Then we waited maybe 5 minutes for our food. (They were super busy)
Something to know-You put the condiments on yourself. Which is great! It just would have been nice to know in advance as it made things confusing when ordering and not seeing the condiment option available. Then, when we asked an employee, she seemed confused as to what we were asking and had to ask her manager. Who finally told us that we put them on ourselves.. A sign saying that and employee knowing that would be helpful..🤦‍♀️
Once we figured that out, we were all good. The food came out fast and tasted good. The drinks were refreshing.”

“Ashley is an absolutely amazing server. She gets that customer service goes well beyond good food and a nice atmosphere. I watch her interact with everyone on the floor, customers and staff. She cares about her customers and her employers. You’d think this was her place.”

“We come here pretty regularly on the weekends for family breakfast and it’s always great. All of the servers are incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. Everyone is warm and welcoming. The food is always delicious and out in 10 minutes or less. Always consistent. I always recommend this place to anyone who will listen!”

“We stopped in this afternoon and enjoyed a chocolate cone, a scoop of chocolate chip, and a chocolate shake. They were delicious. Several people stopped in while we were there, so business was steady.”

“I walked into the restaurant having one of those days where nothing seemed to be going right. From the moment my server, Autumn, greeted me, everything turned around. Her positive attitude, excellent service, and uplifting spirit transformed my bad day into a great one. I’m truly grateful — thank you, Autumn!”

The white ranch pizza is to die for!!!”

I will give them 5stars!!”

“I just threw my trash away and had to write a review immediately because it was SOOO GOOD! This will definitely be my go to spot now for a bagel. My kids also enjoyed theirs very much we had a silent breakfast which isn’t normal because everyone was enjoying the food too much. 🥯 🤤”

“It was a nice 70 degree weather so me and my daughter decided to get some ice cream. We noticed it wasn’t Dairy Queen anymore so we were worried the ice cream wouldn’t be as good. We went through the drive thru (which I was glad was still open) and was greeted with 2 friendly kind gentleman who took our order. It was very clean and the service was fast. They asked if we wanted it now or to go. They ice cream was amazing so we were glad and good prices too. Definitely left a good impression for us and we will be back!”

It’s rare to encounter a server with such personality , we thought his boss should know what a gem they have on their team! :0)”

“Beautiful establishment, i greatly enjoyed purchasing my food from the young man at the register, Food was absolutely delectable, very well done, great jalapeño cheese stuffed pretzels, only thing that knocked a star was that it was cold outside, but nothing on the eatablishment, i do recommend sno hut!”

“I’ve been coming to play Savannahs golf course for over two decades. Since Carter’s Grille made their appearance about 6 months ago. I find myself now showing up just for lunch and dinner. The food is hands down delicious, made fresh to order and fast enough to get on the turn. 10-10 and have been feeling that way for months.”

Our server Tanya was super kind and made sure we got everything we needed, checking in on us frequently even though it was packed. She made sure we had our meals and drinks to take home as well :) We will definitely be back”

“The food was really delicious. The gryo was stuffed full and the tzatziki sauce was refreshing. The gyro rice bowl was a good size and featured lots of gyro meat, buttery rice, Greek salad and several sauces. We also ordered the spanakopita (spinach pie), which was one of the best we had- so creamy. The location is at the Merritt Island mall in the food court near the theater. It’s definitely worth trying.”

“the Chinese food was excellent and would get the tacos again”

“I lived in Southern California and in Texas, and traveled to Mexico often, my wife has lived Arizona and New Mexico, so we are used to authentic Mexican food. This is the best Mexican restaurant in Brevard. Everything we’ve tried is delicious. Everyone who works there offers great service. We love this place.”

“Best Ice Cream in the prairies!”

“Best pretzels I’ve ever had. Auntie Anne’s, Wetzel’s, I love you all but you’ll have to step aside. Firstly, pretzel bites amazing, liked the fork included. Perfect amount of salt and butter. Pretzel the same way. Pretzel Dog BEST ever. No uncooked dough or anything. Had to wait ~10 minutes for it. Worth the wait, had to get another. I’m deducting key points because of 1. Location 2. Online vs. In-Store menu. I was going to get an Italian Pretzel + Pretzel Sticks, both of which were not sold here yet displayed on the website. It’s fine because I still got food it’s just a bit inconvenient.

Parking: Use mall’s parking lot”

“Tried a Lightly Sweetened Chia Tea Latte by suggestion of Mazzie the barista and loved it! She listened and delivered!”

“Since the Space Center is a full day experience, it’s great that there is a healthy and filling vegan option. I got the BBQ Jackfruit, Black Beans and Edamame for protein on my custom bowl. The jalapeños were very hot! Staff were not aware of which sauces were vegan. I got sriracha and pico de gallo.”

“Great friendly service. Always great food!”

“Before yesterday, I had only had two perfect lattes from Starbucks. Both of those were from the Merritt Island N. Courtenay Parkway Starbucks. Yesterday, I was astonished to get a latte there that surpassed the ones I had thought to be perfect (only 2 over the past 2 years). I don’t often treat myself to a Starbucks latte, so it was even more special to have gotten a latte that was over-the-top delicious. Many thanks to Emily. Starbucks: please clone her! On a scale of 1 to 10, I give Emily an 85 (yes, FAR off the scale). I think it not possible to get another latte better than the one I had yesterday.”

“It's a chain restaurant, folks, why are you reading reviews for it? If you want chain restaurant food and prices skedaddle down to beefs, otherwise go support local owned.

This places standouts are their salads honestly, huge portions. Their boneless wings are overbreaded and extremely hard. The prices are quite high.

The staff here is another standout. Generally attentive in my experiences, kind, keep my drinks full.”

“It’s inside a gas station. The seasoning on chicken/ wings is amazing and they are always hot and fresh. They also have the best biscuit imo.
The staff inside the store are very friendly”

“what an awesome experience my GF and I had here. I love the staff, I adore their coffee. Smoothies are delicious!! Muffins are soft and tasty!! Love Katie she is amazing ❤️ thank you for taking good care of us!!”

“We truly love our MI Checkers! We’ve been eating here for many years, and have never been disappointed. Their sandwiches are great, and their fries may actually be the best in the business! The staff here has always been friendly over the years, and we love sitting outside, watching the traffic on Courtenay and the often interesting weather. Seriously, we do love this place!”
