“Birthday celebration with the fam. Waitress Stephanie was great, there was no wait when we walked in . Service was prompt . Food was excellent as Sonny's food is . What I had, the big deal . Sandwich and two sides was more than enough for me , youngest had all you can eat turkey with two sides , oldest had brisket dinner with two sides . Fun was had by all , they came out singing happy birthday with banana pudding which they are famous for(understandably so if you kno anything about southern cooking) Redneck Egg Rolls were ah-mazing as usual, the BEST coleslaw.“

“I enjoyed the most delicious grouper sandwich ever! The breading is perfect! Homemade sauces are what really makes this place stand out. Onion rings are really good also. What could be better than this? The customer service! Grace was very nice and helpful. We enjoyed have a wonderful lunch outdoors on the waterfront patio. This place is a ? gem. I highly recommend dining here. You won’t be disappointed.“

“We stayed at the hotel across the street before and after our cruise. When we asked for a food recommendation when we arrived, she told us to go try the “Crack Mac” across the street. We were so glad that she gave us the recommendation. We had been to multiple different restaurants over the previous weeks and this was the first time that EVERYONE was happy with their food. There wasn’t a single complaint. We went on the cruise and I craved the burger and Mac n cheese the entire time. We all agreed that we were going back to Big Daddy J’s when we got back. We did and it was delicious again. If I ever return to Cocoa Beach, Big Daddy J’s will be a must visit for me.“

“Excellent local spot impressively, curated, wine selection. Initially, I thought the large selection of orange wines involved the fruit somehow, but our waiter explains that it is still a well-known grape wine, but the name simply comes from the color. The dining experience is classic tapas, with lots of shareable small plates. The selection is fantastic and pairs very well with the wines.“

“We've been here a few times but my recent visit prompted my review. Our waitress was Kailey. (I hope I spelled her name right.) She was funny and attentive. Apparently my fish and chips were overcooked and she even told the kitchen she wasn't serving that to me, and had them drop another one. The second one came out a little dark (but not burned) and the front of the house manager came over without my asking, and told me if I didn't like it they'd cook me anything else. However, the second attempt was fine and I enjoyed it, even though it was a little over cooked. The excellent service is why I wanted to write this review. Thank you all for making sure we had a good experience.“

“We stopped by Chef's Table for an impromptu Friday night dinner, fully expecting to sit in the bar area as we arrived at peak dinner time with no reservation. Instead we were seated at the chef's counter and had a great time watching the kitchen work hard to prepare plate after plate of tasty looking food. Our server and sommelier Marc provided excellent service, despite being extremely busy and all the other staff were also attentive and friendly. We had the appetizer special of a delicious burrata and warm tomato salad then the scallops with risotto and a new york strip with asparagus for our entrees. Knowing we were planning on splitting our food, Marc arranged for us to get a beautiful sharing board. A huge shout out to chefs Brian and Phoenix for such a treat! Everything was cooked extremely well and seasoned perfectly. We hadn't been to Chef's Tabl for a while but we will certainly be adding them into our rotation after this fantastic meal.“

“Alligator bites were good, didn't really try anything else. Service was good, our server was very patient with some members of our party since we were only there for drinks. Bartender on the patio made us shots she had never heard of before and they turned out delicious. They have the most amazing (adult only) vending machine in the game room. Our big group took turns buying different things from the machine and laughing our butts off!“

“A friend and I ate there yesterday. The food and service were excellent. Since covid, this Sonnys has been very hit or miss, and because of this, I haven't eaten here quite as often. In the past, you would be standing at the front to be seated, and nobody would acknowledge you standing there. After about 10 minutes I would leave with my group of friends. I heard many other people say the same thing. Also, they don't let you order ahead and eat in their dining room when you get there, you can only order to go and take it with you. That doesn't help when you are on your lunch break and have limited time with your coworkers. After covid, the food took a long time to come out of their kitchen. So, they have lost a lot of business by not being able to seat people and then taking a long time to get their food out for the past few years. I hope the experience I received yesterday is the new norm so I can start going there more often. I love Sonnys food when it is cooked and served correctly. My rating is based on yesterday's experience. I took off a star for my past experience. Had I rated them in the past, it would be a zero star rating if I could.“

“Updated review after all the chaos! The food is excellent. The menu has changed minimally but what I will say the end result is still awesome! I want to give a shout out to David. He’s one of the cooks… He actually comes out and talks to you about the quality of your food, and he cares… imo. Eitan is new…engaging and upbeat! I’m sure there’s a boycott going on.. I get it, but I just say remember at the end of the day the workers are innocent victims and the product is still great! That’s all!“

“Spent 3 days (Feb 2024) at the Radisson at the port, Cape Canaveral. We (4 adults and 2 children) were super impressed with the breakfast buffet at the Flamingo Restaurant inside. We have 2 family members who are gluten-free, soy and dairy free and we appreciated the extra care Brenda took in preparing their omelets. Kaytlynn is super friendly and an excellent waitress helping us navigate through food options and making sure we had lots of hot coffee and orange juice. Thank you!Dietary restrictions: Accommodate Gluten-free, soy and dairy free food issuesKid-friendliness: Traveling with 1 and 5 yr old, Kaytlynn offered paper and crayons and chatted with kids ?“
