“Great little Cafe at Sebastian Inlet State Park. We had the Mahi sandwich and were very in happy with it. Fish was cooked perfectly - blackened. 100% would do that one over again. Service was awesome and we didn't have to wait long for our food. We ate outside on the deck because we had our pup with us. They brought him a bowl of water as well. Check out the view from the deck on the second floor!“

“My husband surprised me with a breakfast trip here for our first Mother's Day; I'm 7 months pregnant :). Our server Quinn was so lovely and helped us navigate the menu. She was so kind and commented on how exciting it is to be a mother. Our food was delicious and we grabbed some to go boxes. It's also right near a beach access point for a nice walk afterwards. On a side note, the community here is also wonderful. Quin told us as we were finishing up that an elder couple overheard our conversation and paid for our meal as a gift. What a lovely place and community!“

A special shoutout to Tara, who has truly made this place our go-to restaurant. Her friendly personality, attention to detail, and genuine care for customers make every visit feel special. She remembers us, makes us feel like family, and always provides top-notch service.

Great food, great atmosphere, and an even better waitress. If you stop by, ask for Tara—you won’t be disappointed! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“We have been going to Dottie’s for over 20 years. Always great food and good service! Thank you all!“

“Gorgeous and relaxing. Life is easy at the Grant house. Fully furnished, clean, and perfectly set of so you don’t have to worry about a thing. We vacationed here for a week, and felt like we had arrived to a luxury abode. Between the deck, patio, pool, dock, and fire pit, we were never bored. And when it storms, the upstairs has 3 decks to sit and watch the storm pass. Well worth the hefty price we paid. I only wish I was able to bring my doggo..“

“the best people that work“

“Amazing creations from our favorite, Chef Bo! The menu and atmosphere don't disappoint. Bo, Shannon ,and staff are awesome. So happy to have a location in Brevard that offers Hog Fish, which is hard to find. The menu has a wide variety and the cocktails are on point. This will be on our regular list of go-to places!“

“We had a wonderful Anniversary dinner with a beautiful view of the river at the restaurant! We both ordered the Proscuitto scallop tagliatelle, and it was incredibly delicious! The portions were large, so there was almost half left over to take home. We just had try the aguave cheesecake, and it also was really yummy!😋Our server Delilah was perfectly attentive, and our meals came our very quickly! We will come back for sure. I want to try everything on the menu!“

“Great breakfast place! Blueberry pancakes never disappoint. Friendly staff. Nostalgic.“

“We had an amazing brunch for Mothers Day! 11 of us and everyone loved their food and service was great!“

“She was so sweet and amazing! Great coffee“

“Made the decision to go late on a Friday night. I was extremely pleased with our service from Keith. He answered our questions and even made some really great suggestions. I ended up having a meal that had everything in it I wanted and I didn’t even know what I wanted when I came in.. Food tasted great. It was a very pleasant experience. Thanks!!!“

“We have a wild two year old who makes eating out difficult. We heard this restaurant was kid friendly with a water area for littles to play so we decided to check it out while we were out in the area. We had a great experience! My son could have played there in the water all day if we let him. We sat outdoors in a shady area and watched him play as we ate our lunch. Win win! I got the chicken Philly (minus the mushrooms and marinara) and it was great! My husband got the buffalo chicken wrap and also enjoyed his. Both were much bigger than we had expected! We probably didn’t need to order sides (fries and onion rings) or could have shared one side between the two of us but that’s okay! We know for next time! My two littles got the kids chicken tenders and grilled cheese. I’m a big sweet tea girl but kind of picky. The tea was good! 🙌 Our server was also great and very friendly!“

“This is such a cute, fun little place! As adults we loved it, I can only imagine how much kids would enjoy it-- so much to look at and the ice cream was great! Florida in September is pretty hot, but with all the fans, we were able to enjoy our ice cream outside.“

“This restaurant inside the Doubletree always has a great breakfast—and it’s not just for hotel guests. Even as locals, myself and my parents dine here frequently. Their breakfast buffet has a great selection at a good price. Jenna, Anthony, Manny, and the whole crew here are always very accommodating. Check them out!“

“Everything was amazing. The food was delicious and so many choices. The service was great. The only thing lacking was holiday decor. I wanted a Christmas feel. I didn't feel that at all. I felt like it was just another day in a restaurant.“

“My sister and I went to Rooney’s for lunch today. We both ordered a cup of French onion soup and a shrimp basket. Everything was delicious. Loved the soup and the fact that the shrimp was lightly fried It didn’t have a lot of batter. Ordered a hamburger to bring home for my husband and he said is really good. He’s a hard sell so that saying a lot!“

“We were so happy to come across this Friendly’s during our vacation as they all shut down where we live! The food was excellent and tasted just like how we remembered it. The amount of different ice cream flavors they carry ensured we could all get something we liked. The waitresses were also very kind despite them being extremely short staffed both times we went. If you’re willing to wait a bit for your food, I highly recommend coming here!“

“What a delightful holiday luncheon our Lunch Bunch had yesterday. The table looked absolutely beautiful with a crisp white tablecloth, red and green napkins folded into a Christmas tree pattern, a red runner down the middle and short holiday decor in the middle, so you could visit across the table. Our waitress, Lisa, did a fine job of spoiling us throughout our visit. I ordered a muddled Old Fashion which was the best one I have ever had, ymm. Our meal choices were varied, delicious and enjoyed by everyone in our group of ten. I highly recommend choosing the Rialto Hilton for your next gathering.
