“Banana River Cafe, 1301 S. Patrick Dr., Satellite Beach, FL 32937 5 Stars I swore four years ago I would never go back, yet here I am like fish from yesterfang in the parking lot of a restaurant that at one time (under previous ownership) was my number one breakfast place in Brevard County. After it was sold, it was turned into a joint that wallowed in bad food and even worse service. As I said, that was four years ago. I have since deleted that review. Now, I can say that it is safe to return to the water, but I get ahead of myself. What changed? The new owner/chef is a CIA graduate who did his externship at Michelin Star restaurant Gramercy Tavern in New York City. Emerson Krause turned down a position at the famed restaurant upon graduation to return home and bring Brevard a taste of things seldom sampled in this part of the Sunshine State. I can safely speak for all of my fellow Floridians on the Space Coast when I say, "Thank you, Emerson and welcome home!" After being seated at a delightfully decorated table (I love the paint scheme on the chairs), we were approached by a charming lady named Nicole. Nicole was outstanding in every way a service professional should be. I asked Nicole for an order of the Bacon Sea Salt French Toast, one Texan Potato Stack and a San Antonio Biscuit Bennie. Snapping a few quick pics of the warm environs, I sat back, soaked in the peaceable atmosphere and awaited Nicole's return. The aromas were enticing to such a degree; it was all I could do to take some pictures before digging into the edible artwork before me. First to saunter across my palate was a taste of the Bacon Sea Salt French Toast. One taste and I was deep in Hog Heaven. That bacon! While I love "meat candy" more than almost any other animal flesh, that is not what set this order of the tried and true breakfast staple of French Toast apart. It was the bread and execution. This bread was fresh, thick and griddled to a delightful golden brown. The outside had just the right amount of crunch, while the inside was airy, fresh and wonderfully warm. I could eat this every day and never tire of it. Heaving a sad sigh of regret, I moved on to the next dish to be sampled, the Texan Potato Stack. Every Potato Stack is served with eggs over easy on herb roasted potatoes and topped with jack cheddar cheese sauce with your choice of toast or biscuit. The Texan came with added chorizo, onion, peppers, salsa, guacamole and sour cream. One bite and again, I was done. The flavors cascaded down my gullet like so many drops of gastronomical gratification. The last to dance across my taste buds this morning was the San Antonio Biscuit Bennie. I won't bore you with any more details; suffice it to say that this was on par with the rest of the meal. Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavor combinations were unparalleled in a breakfast biscuit (if this still qualifies as such). The Big Boy says, "If it is breakfast or lunchtime, stop what you are doing and go there right now."“

“I’m kinda biased since I work here, however, I was a regular here for around a year before I started working here. Boy, let me tell you, this place gave me a second home. I have met so many amazing people that have influenced my life in so many different ways. The crowd is always friendly, always motivating, always ready to give a helping hand, and will always have your back, no matter the situation. Thank you, Tony, for creating a place where diversity becomes community. Not many places like this truly exist in our society in this current day and age.“

“A great little location and great food and staff.“

“Your food is AMAZING! I would, however, appreciate knowing the nutritional facts for your items.“

“Your restaurant is not welcoming. I feel like I’m in a church banquet room. By the way, Eastern Jewish People invented the bagel.“

“We love this place!! Anything you order will be delicious! The owner makes these GF cookies that are amazing! ❤️“

“Absolutely obsessed with this place. I am unfortunately one of those sugary coffee lovers but their nitro cold brew is so delicious I can drink it black. We look forward each week to their delicious and gluten free baked goods. It’s hard to find actually good tasting gluten-free items and theirs isn’t just good, they’re great! Place is always clean and consistent! A++++ couldn’t recommend them any more than I already do! The Wicked Pineapple is a must!“

“top notch service! definitely the place to stop! we so enjoyed our visit“

“Chef Toni is an amazing cook. I have eaten here twice and have had an incredible experience both times! If you are a foodie I highly recommend Cedars. Both times we asked her to just cook for us and she did just that! Thank you again Chef Toni! We cannot wait to book a Chefs tasting ❤️“

“Great spot with mediocre service. Just kidding. They are the best. Love you guys. Lol.“

“My friend and I had a wonderful day at the zoo. Guided kayaking tour and saw different animals along the way. The guide was great but unfortunately I don't remember her name. I want to give a special review regarding our private tour guide, Dee, who took us through different exhibits and gave us a lot of information. She was amazing, even getting rained on with us. Thank you, Dee, for a fun time!“

“Discovered this lovely little place and met the sweetest family that owns it. We had the cappuccino and the Nutella affogato. Both were delicious!“

“This bakery is amazing. It’s not just sugary sweet. This baker adds great flavors to all her items, especially the donuts served on Fridays and Saturdays! Skip the Dunkin and visit Junkfood bakery. It’s totally worth it. Best bakery in Cocoa! I like the French bakery in Cocoa Village, but I like this bakery better. Everything tasted amazing. Try the mixed berry poptarts and donuts to start. You will not be disappointed.“

“Always enjoy their Cuban coffee!“

“Cafe Monte Carlo- Cape Canaveral- 3.75-Stars "Don't judge a book by its cover" -- G, Elliot In pursuing my goal of reviewing every eating establishment on the Space Coast, I have learned a lot about our lovely state of Florida. For example, not knowing how to drive and/or park is not limited to out of state plates, Publix stores anchor a multitude of strip malls, and Florida is chock-full of dingy, seemingly run down and forgotten by the tides of time, strip malls. These little guys are hanging on for dear life all up and down the coastal roadways. Sometimes, they hide a pearl worthy of dive by an Ama (Japanese pearl divers) and while I didn't know it at the time, that was going to be the case here. The new paint job the building was boasting could not hide the fact that it was at least 20 years old and in dire need of modernization. Looking around as I entered and approached the counter I couldn't help but notice the inside wasn't all that much better. While it was clean and orderly, it also was begging to enter the 21st Century. Apprehensions based on looks set aside I boldly placed an order with our Server, Andrew, for a Croque sandwich on a croissant, biscuits and gravy, one Monte's grilled 3 cheese on white bread and a cup of their Cuban espresso. The thing I love about an open kitchen such as the one you will find inside Cafe Monte Carlo is that well, it's an open kitchen. If it's dirty, dingy, and greasy I have found that often so is the slop slung forth, This kitchen sparkled with cleanliness and care. Watching the cook grill our sandwiches made me think that they might not be so bad after all. Andrew soon returned with our food and it was time to go to work! The Croque sandwich can come in a few different ways and I ordered mine with ham on the aforementioned grilled croissant. The ham was not fake processed meat stuff, but the real honest to Jimmy Dean deal. It was sliced deli thin, piled high on a bakery fresh croissant and then topped with an egg cooked to a perfect medium. The whole thing was then topped with some of the best tasting and most unique bèchamel sauce I have yet had. Made with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a dab of mustard really made it stand out and brought the sandwich to a completely different level of gastronomical heights. The biscuits and gravy reminded me of the building I was in by their mere appearance. They did not look very appetizing, but I had a job to do. With one bite I knew I was in the South. These were not your plug and play, frozen, preformed biscuits, no Ma'am! These were the real McCoy handmade biscuits fresh out of the oven and they were delicious. Slathered atop these icons of biscuits was some of the best sausage gravy I have yet had. The sausage was fresh, complex in taste and cooked correctly, while the gravy was obviously made by my great grandmother as there is no other explanation as to how incredibly flavorful it was (please return her, she is missed!). Next up on my to-do list was the Monte's grilled 3 cheese on white. With a gooey interior of a melted mass of Swiss, Cheddar and Provolone cheese the sandwich would have been gold as is, however, add to that bacon and a vine fresh tomato onion chutney and you have sandwich platinum, baby! Oh, sorry, I got caught up on the inside with ya know bacon, the freshly baked white bread was grilled to a perfect crunchy hue and added a nice base for the baco...I mean grilled 3 cheese. With a menu boasting 11 types of java, it would seem that they are attempting to put the coffee back in cafè and they do an excellent job at that. My Cuban espresso was not only aesthetically pleasing but done properly with the correct amount of boldness one expects from Cuban coffee. It was a perfect ending to a rather enjoyable and surprisingly delicious meal. The Big Boy says, "For a unique and tasty take on a grilled cheese, an excellent cup of Joe and more, overlook the outside setting and hit this place up!" #iamthebigboy #bigboydiningout“

“This Panera is exceptional! The food is no less than we have come to expect from Panera: health conscious and delicious. What sets this restaurant apart is its friendly and enthusiastic staff! The restaurant is also especially clean right down to the bathroom floors. It is clear the employees and management at this Panera care! Dont just take it from me, stop in for a fresh pastry and a cup of coffee or something from their entree menu and see for yourself!
