“Urban Prime has been a go-to of mine for years, and it never disappoints. Through all its changes, the food, drinks, and service have stayed top-notch. Chef Kyle’s happy hour menu is a standout—the “Not-So-Little Butter Burger” and Brussels sprouts were the perfect match for my Old Fashioned (not smoked, but still hit all the right notes). The service here is exceptional. From the hostess to Adrienne behind the bar and Iman Elder on the floor, they made me feel genuinely welcomed—a nice touch since my friend had a genuine mix-up and couldn’t make it. Beyond the dining experience, I also appreciate Urban Prime’s philanthropic spirit. I had the pleasure of working with them during Jazoo and Safari Under the Stars (‘19-‘21), benefiting the Brevard Zoo, and again for The Scott Center for Autism (‘23), their commitment to community stood out then just as much as it does now. Great food, great vibes, and even better people. Urban Prime keeps me coming back! I am posting a visit from 2019 — their wine list by Dana Cona continues to be impressive!“

“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!“

“Mainstreet Pub in Melbourne has long enjoyed a loyal local following, but a recent weekend lunch visit offered fresh confirmation of why this unassuming establishment continues to endure. What began as a casual family outing—spurred by a brother-in-law’s long-standing curiosity—quickly turned into a memorable meal anchored by confident service and unexpectedly standout cooking. The menu’s Western New York sensibilities will feel instantly familiar to anyone with roots in Buffalo or Rochester, which made it an especially welcome sight for my wife’s family, all originally from that region. The restaurant’s longtime server, who appears to have been part of the team since its early days, proved to be one of its strongest assets. Her command of the menu, ability to steer guests toward the right selections, and genuine hospitality set the tone for the afternoon. Ambience at Mainstreet Pub is functional rather than transportive—straightforward, pub-appropriate, and comfortable, though not particularly noteworthy. But diners do not come here for aesthetic immersion. They come for the food, and on that front the kitchen more than delivers. Across the table, every entrée arrived well-executed, but one item stood out with unmistakable authority: the Kummelweck sandwich. A proper Beef on Weck is something of a regional litmus test, and Mainstreet Pub’s version is exceptional. The beef is tender and deeply flavorful, the jus balanced, and the kummelweck roll perfectly salted and caraway-studded. As someone who is not a Buffalo native, I offer this praise without hometown bias: it is the best Beef on Weck I have tasted outside Western New York. Paired with a well-curated draft beer selection, it embodies exactly what a pub specialty should be—unpretentious, satisfying, and executed with pride. In a dining landscape where many “pubs” lean heavily on ambience while delivering middling food, Mainstreet Pub reverses the equation. The culinary output is the reason to visit, and it is compelling enough to make the trip worthwhile. For travelers passing through Melbourne—or locals who have overlooked it—this is a lunch stop well worth seeking out. Highly recommended.“

“My favorite course to play when I’m back home“

“Mark and Diane made our dining experience so wonderful. And we heard from one of the chefs—came to Our table to make sure all Was well Such a wonderful evening“

“Remodel looks great , staff is amazing“

“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.

“Our experience at The Mansion in Melbourne, FL was exceptional. We were seated in a beautiful private room for our party of seven, which added a special touch to the evening. The ambiance was elegant and inviting, perfect for a memorable night out. Our server, Alex, went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and incredibly accommodating. The food was not only delicious but also served in generous portions. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. Highly recommend for both the atmosphere and outstanding service!“

“Who would have thought a great B B Q place would have fantastic , hand breaded shrimp? Everything has always been spot on at both locations. But the shrimp and the service made my day.“

“I did not eat here. My friends and I stopped in to grab a drink and play pool. We had a blast. Staff was nice. My fave thing about this place is the adult vending machine in the back. There are so many options to choose from. Bathrooms were clean. No line to get in but we also went pretty early.“
