Restaurants near Melbourne Beach

“Authentic German cuisine - very good! View of the river and sunset was delightful. Slant of the porch (half of the dining area) could have foiled our apple strudel dessert, but we turned the plate around so the ice cream stayed on the plate. Ha.”

“Great food, atmosphere and staff. Will not go anywhere else to eat pizza Stromboli, pizza, chicken parm. You are missing out I'd you don't try it.Parking: They are so popular you might have to look for a parking space but it is worth it.”

“the food is great. very fresh made. the empanadas very crunchy fresh made. i recommend start with a cuban sandwich and a cortadito. then a guava empanada. the hall family gets something and it was just like $50 and some change. definitely will be my place to grab a bite before i go to the beach.”

“The coffee here is truly exceptional (my husband's words), the food, while decent, leaves something to be desired. My husband, for instance, was excited to order the wrap, only to be told that rice - a staple ingredient - was unavailable. This was disappointing and somewhat perplexing, as rice typically accompanies the wrap automatically. He ended up opting for a bagel instead, which was fine but not what he had originally wanted. In conclusion, while this café has its charms - including top-notch coffee and visually appealing pastries - there are some areas that could use improvement. With a bit more attention to detail and consistency, it could easily elevate its status from good to great.”

“Best catfish in the area, no contest. The chicken is also great. Get a side of the fried mushrooms and horseradish sauce. You'll thank me. Yes, it's inside a gas station...in a great area, run by great people. Don't miss it.”

“Me and the wife were headed out to dinner and decided to check this place out, the customer service was amazing, the soft serve ice cream was, well ice cream ?, but great for a warm day. I would definitely stop in again if I were in the area.”

“I have lived in Melbourne Beach forever. Whenever I go to Publix I'm always curious who's having SUCH a good time in the plaza... well I found out finally. The atmosphere, the food, the service, the entertainment AMAZING. It's hard to find good service nowadays and when you're personally greeted by the owner, that's what these small towns are all about. We have gone three times in the last week and the fish and chips is my absolute favorite. Our first night we sat at the bar and ordered the cheese sticks, fish and chips, mahi tacos and ended with the crème brûlée. Absolute 10! The next night we came for trivia night which was SO much fun. Again, fish and chips and mahi tacos but this time we opted for the pretzel appetizer, which was huge and dessert was the bread pudding. This brings us to tonight, brought my parents in and we all ordered different things, this time I got the pot roast and wow. Another excellent dining experience where you don't feel you wasted money on a low quality experience. Overall, this is a must all across the board. We will be back on the weekend for more!”

“The Oasis is our local version of Cheers. If you go often the staff knows you and the customers know the staff. We don't make it over to the bar often but when we do it is always a fun afternoon either watching football and just hanging out close to home. They do not have a kitchen however if you get hungry you can order something from a neighboring location, pick it up and return to your spot to enjoy it at the Oasis.”

“We received a warm greeting as soon as we entered to have our lunch. Having been outside all morning, we opted for the dining room rather than the patio. Very cozy, clean and beautifully decorated for Easter. Our server came over to us right away. Told us about the specials and took our drink orders. Very good selection of local craft beers. We each ordered seafood. Very fresh, tasty and piping hot. I got the shrimp platter, my bride got the fresh seafood platter. Both delicious. We decided on coleslaw and potato salad for sides. Both were super delicious. I only regret not ordering the baked beans.This was one of the best lunches I've had in quite some timeWe will most definitely be back”

“Ordered takeout. We ordered egg rolls, chicken lo neon and kung po chicken. They said 20 minutes and they were dead spot on. Food was good. I particularly liked the egg rolls as the were crispy on the outside and rich on the inside. Our main dishes were excellent. Value for money good! Portions sizes are good!”

“Always have amazing service, food, and atmosphere when at Djon's. Best Chilean Sea Bass you'll get anywhere. The noise level in the back dining area was a bit loud, and it was hard to talk with the person across the table sometimes but could easily talk to the person sitting next to me.”

“Delicious ice cream and huge servings. The beach is right across the parking lot. It was very nice watching the waves while we had our ice cream. The store was clean and they have a few tables if you want to eat there. Service was great, very friendly.”

“Always friendly, prompt and have fresh ingredients. I'm grateful we have a subway close by and will visit many times to keep them in business! Ypu should visit too!”

“Don't let the atmosphere rating fool you it is a nice cozy place beachside. The food and service are hands down some of the best you can get in the area. I'm from Maryland so I'm particularl about my crab cakes. While not an exact rendition it was a Maryland style crab that and only know of one other place with a good crab cake around here in Melbourne/ Melbourne Beach area. The sticky duck wings were tasty, crispy and sticky good. Lasagna Pizza was amazing with a fresh crust and all the makings of a nice lasagna one of my favorite meals. I think the sandwich was called a Which came first? Being there is egg and chicken on it was nice and tender with a huge egg yolk that you can see in the video popped and drizzled nicely on the plate so I could dip it in rightfully so.”

“I am going five stars for the Surfside Inlet Grill & Gifts based on Location, location, location. They run a good snack bar with very few staff members. I didn't expect to get items right away when you can clearly see there are only two people working for the crowd of people in line. You will get some grumpy tourists almost all the time as the Inlet is a popular spot to visit. Take it for what it is a snack bar at one of the most beautiful inlets around. Five stars all the way. Please don't liter, be kind and just enjoy your adult beverage with a side of fries. This is a hidden gem.Vegetarian options: They do offer a veggie burger it is not vegan. If you are on a strict restrictive diet then be smart and skip it.Parking: Parking is included in the park entrance fee.Kid-friendliness: The inlet is kid friendly. Please take this as learning opportunity to teach kids how to be stewards of our eco system. Pick up trash, don't dig holes, chase wildlife, or throw rocks at everything.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, the inlet offers wheelchair accessibility.”

“Open air patio on first floor with exceptional view of the ocean surf. Very friendly and helpful wait staff. Bathrooms are tucked away near the front, but were easy to find. Prices are moderate but the flavor is exceptional.”

“After loosing power just as I was about to cook dinner for a hungry toddler, we decided to head to Outback. We were quickly seated (with crayons and coloring sheet thank goodness) and served by Nick. Total toddler meltdown crisis was averted!! Thanks to Nick and staff for helping make a potentially poopy afternoon/night into a good one:)”

“Great place. Wonderful food, a bit messy because we got their burgers but that’s expected ?. Very good food, checks all the boxes of a good burger, I suggest unless u have a very large mouth and hands. Do not get an extra patty on your burger as I did, because the patties are very thick and makes it a monster of a burger when it’s already pretty big. Very good service. Our waiter Paige had excellent energy, amazing social skills, and great efficiency when waiting on us and others from what I saw. I “made my own”burger, and got a side of parm fries and it was so good. My mother which was there with me Got their lobster burger with a side of parm fries and she said it was amazing. And I also got one of their lava cakes in house which Paige doctored up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel and fudge drizzle in which Paige was excited I ordered in rather than to go because “she enjoys dr’ing it up” clearly a lady who loves the food, loves her job and doesn’t well. Thanks Paige, and thanks to the two awesome cooks who made our food. We will definitely be back again soon! P.s. they also had some really cool signs and art in the walls. P.P.S the mens bathroom is pretty clean, well maintained and has some nice touches like a mouthwash dispenser and air freshener if you need them alongside some funny signs as well.Dietary restrictions: They also accommodate for ceiliac and vegetarian diets from what I saw, I myself am Ceiliac and got fries(made in a dedicated fryer) and a burger with a gluten free bun, with a side of some delicious chipotle garlic Aoli sauce that was delicious with the parm fries. Overall a great place for two people ,my mother ( no dietary restriction ) and myself ( celiac’s disease Aka severe gluten allergy ) to eat together. ? 9.9/10 restaurant, and 10/10 burger.”

“Empanadas are always fresh and served fast, and the green sauce is delicious. The staff are so friendly and it’s a great stop if you need a quick bite in the area.”

“Hemmingway's Tavern is my favorite restaurant. The food is delicious. Never disappointed. Yucca fries...fabulous!!! Well, everything is delicious. I just can't wait for the Yucca. The service and atmosphere is great, too.”

“Extremely happy with our experience at IFG. Miles was our server and he was outstanding! He was knowledgeable, kind, patient, accommodating and more. Service is what really makes an experience for me and Miles hit all my points. Highly recommend this place! 10/10”

“I took a friend for pizza today, it was a fairly wonderful experience. Service was great out the gate, very attentive server, the pizza was delicious. she got the mushroom, I got the Riccardo! Then I spilled a glass of water all over the table. I cleaned it up best I could with the napkins on the table. The server came by at one point to check on us, I let him know I'd spilled water and cleaned it up as best I could. He said, no big deal it's raining outside. Never cleaned it up, even brought the check 15 minutes later and laid it next to and on the spilled water. Everything up until the spilled water was great. I just cannot wrap my head around the lackadaisical behavior, not only by our server but the other 2 servers who stopped by to check on us. Perplexed to say the least.”

“The best restaurant for an all around enjoyable food and drink experience. There's quite a selection of lunch and dinner meals to choose from. Also you got to try the 18 cent bean soup!”

“Absolutely fantastic experience the first time we had to come back the next night for another dinner. Everything on the menu was fresh and cooked to perfection. Ambiance and atmosphere was very nice. Served Andy was top notch. We requested him on our second visit, he was professional, funny and really made sure we were taken care of. Highly recommend for all occasions. We will be back!!”

“I’ve come here with my boyfriend a few times for date nights and the atomosphere is always great and the employees are always nice!! 10/10 always a fun time!! (Shoutout to Jaina for being a delight!!)”

“If you're looking for an authentic Italian deli you have found it. The food is incredible and the people are like family, especially the owner Mike. He is a beautiful and wonderful person. Please give them a try and make sure you try the stuffed peppers! You'll thank me later.”

“I hadn't tried this place but decided to do online pickup. What a great choice! I walked in at exactly the time I had put on my order and they were ready for me. I had the Kona Fire bowl and it was delicious. It's a convenient location so I'll definitely be back!”

“I’ve been craving Greek food for weeks and I’m loving everything about this place.From the time I walked in Amy greeted me with a warm smile making me feel right at home. The music totally set the atmosphere for an amazing late lunch.P.S. I’m a sucker for baklava like Raymond Redington ?”

“I stopped by today for the first time after hearing a bunch of good reviews about it, and quite honestly, it is the best ice cream I have ever had in my entire life. I had the banana split and it was so delicious. Very fair prices. The environment is nice and I love the aesthetic of the 50s feel, and I will be back.”

“This is a great spot for some quality breakfast by the beach! Our server Brianna was awesome, she was on top of everything and the food came out crazy fast. Highly recommend.”
