“Every time i've had lunch there, it's been fantastic.“

“My husband and I went today for dinner. Have gone before but today the service was exceptional!! Hannah was terrific! She made our experience terrific!! Thank you Hannah!!.“

“Stopped for brunch this morning first time there. It’s a typical diner. Was disappointed that a business that says Mitchell’s Mimosas had no champagne to make mimosas. It’s not far from a few places that they could’ve picked up a few bottles of sparkling wine if running low. It is Father’s Day after all. Best part of entire experience was the very friendly, efficient waitress Trinity. She was attentive, suggested a few things on the menu, ensured beverages were filled. Food was good- typical diner. Is it a place I would go out of my way for? Probably not. But if I do, I would want Trinity as my server.“

“The staff was so friendly and gave us as much time as we needed. The food was good, but at my booth the mustard was expired. This place is great if you love comfort food! Our waiter was very engaging and we spent time talking with him. I definitely recommend this place for small families.“

“Keys atmosphere fish from right off the shore excellent staff and wonderful food“

“Today was my birthday and I wanted to share my review at dixie crossroads and now that I went here I met my waiter Anthony and he was a nice, respectful, kind with words and very good on top of everything I'm giving him a 5 star review for giving me the best birthday and the best service I had ever had and I hope that he is well token care of the company and he deserves it.“

“I’ve been coming to play Savannahs golf course for over two decades. Since Carter’s Grille made their appearance about 6 months ago. I find myself now showing up just for lunch and dinner. The food is hands down delicious, made fresh to order and fast enough to get on the turn. 10-10 and have been feeling that way for months.“

“I love this place, best wings in Titusville. If you like blue cheese with your wings, then you're in for a treat. They make their blue cheese dip from scratch and it's amazing. I can no longer eat blue cheese that comes in the pre-packaged tubs that most places serve. I always have excellent service, the food is really good, great atmosphere...it doesn't get any better. This place is so much more than a bowling alley.“

“The food has always been fantastic at this location but there were some issues with service. New owner Peter has addressed that problem successfully. They now have Abbey and Abby, the dynamic (and beautiful) duo, who have upgraded the service quality tremendously!!! * Food quality 100% * Service (now) 100% * Atmosphere - Superb! * Parking - Lots of free parking! * Prices - Diner prices and quite reasonable by today's standards! * Added bonus: New owners are caring and friendly! PS: Best rye bread anywhere!“

“My wife and I went on a date tonight to Longhorn in Merritt island. Ashley H was our waitress. Ashley is an amazing waitress. She was very friendly and attentive but not overbearing. Thank you for the great experience.“

“delicious. we are ready for KSC. Alyssa is so sweet. great service. great cook. really fun“

“Our server, Savana, was great. She really did her best, but I think the service problem was with the kitchen. Appetizers came out quickly, tasted great and the portion sizes were good. 3 entrees came out after a 30 minute wait, but the other 4 took 45 minutes AFTER the first ones were served. Needless to say, the first 3 were finished before the rest of us got our entrees. We ordered dessert and that took another 30+ minutes for 2 slices of orange cake and 2 slices of key lime pie. Savanna mentioned she had to cut the cakes herself. There was one table of 2 when we arrived and 2 tables of 3 or 4 Which arrived after us and got served before us. If you're looking for food that is okay , Go visit, if you're looking for exceptional service.It probably should not be on the top of your list. Poutine was great, chicken casadilla was very good, ceasar salad Lettuce was a little old, bolognaise was good and the penne Alfredo was very good.“

“Huge beer selection and delicious as well! Awesome atmosphere!

CORRECTION!! this by far is the best Brewery in all of Florida! My second visit confirmed it! Chrissy (not of Three’s Company fame 😉) was spot on!! She was energetic and very knowledgeable! The beer was awesome the second time around, so I know it wasn’t a fluke. Well done guys!“

“the food is amazing!! hush puppies were the best I've ever had and please leave room for dessert because the peanut butter pie is so good and smooth!! my husband and i love everything we've had so far! can't wait to go back.“

“we love ❤️ it. a family tradition for decades“

“Had the great fortune of trying this Hazy IPA before meeting the owner Kelsey Grammer and watching him pull beer for a few hours. This beer is outstanding! it doesn't have that hoppy bite and has a refreshing citrus finish. Put simply? it's delicious. Looking forward to more amazing beers coming!!“

“Awesome restaurant, great service and friendly staff“

“Wonderful meal got chicken fried steak eggs great service“

“As someone from Wisconsin, this Culver's was a little bit under normal expectations, burger patties were slightly burnt, fries were warm . Staff was great Also I noticed a few months ago that Wisconsin locations are cooking their fries crisper“

“the fried gizzards are the best I have ever had. such a nice little place. Cole slaw was great. All our meals were great. definitely recommend.“

“First let me say we were price and service comparing with Denny's/Waffle House/IHOP. So far IHOP is on top in both categories by a lot. Clean and bright/ not to loud.. Wonderful server (Veronike) absolutely wonderful she was friendly from the moment we walked in the door till we left!!!“

“We had the pleasure of being served by Brian Burger at The Island, and we just wanted to say how much we enjoyed meeting him! He was not only attentive but also entertaining and funny ! It’s rare to encounter a server with such personality , we thought his boss should know what a gem they have on their team! :0)“

“I love going to Time Out for lunch or after work. Staff here is great and fun, food is well worth the money, and its a very chill relax spot“

“Rec 225- Cocoa, FL- 3.75 Stars "I lurched away from the table after a few hours feeling like Elvis in Vegas - fat, drugged, and completely out of it." ― Anthony Bourdain Getting back into the swing of things post--Covid has been great for the Big Boy and I hope for you as well. Thank you for all the comments, supportive and not so supportive. As you can see, I take each one to heart and answer straightforward. I do not cut corners in my reviews, nor do I apologize for them. Finding myself meandering up the Space Coast, I grabbed my random eatery generator and punched in my location. A few nearby eateries popped up and I found myself near the local star, Cryderman's Barbecue. Curious as to who could hang in the same neighborhood, I ventured into Rec 225. The first impression was one of spic and span clean, like your kitchen when you know guests are coming over. Grabbing a table, our waiter Jo-Jo came over to see how we were doing. It turns out that Jo-Jo is also the owner and not only cares about the customer but obviously takes pride in his business as he was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable and just downright awesome. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about Jo-Jo. I placed an order for their eponymous sandwich, the 225, along with one Mac & Cheese grilled cheese and a side order of Bacon and Bleu fries. As for a drink, I went with the vaunted Jarritos Orange (how can you go wrong with this liquid concoction of pure delight?). Waiting eagerly for the foodstuffs to arrive I continued to glance about the place and found the interior charming. Before too long, Jo-Jo came back with my order, placed it upon my table and offering a sincere, "Enjoy your meal," Jo-Jo went off to address other patrons. Looking at the pictures you can see that everything certainly did look scrumptious! Grabbing the self-named sandwich, The Big Boy went to work. Comprised of bacon, Gouda, french fries, and tomato pesto on garlic Texas toast it was a delicious mouthful of exquisite flavor. The combination of the bacon and Gouda was enough to send one's taste buds into a dance of joy, add to that the fresh tomato pesto and the perfectly golden fries and you are entering the taste bud danger zone! Seriously, I thought mine were going to sashay right out of my mouth they were so pleased with the flavors found in this masterpiece of a sandwich. It almost felt like a crime when I set it down and turned my attention to the Mac & Cheese grilled sandwich, but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. This was far from the simple grilled cheese we all ate as a kid. This incorporated classic mac&cheese with Gouda served on Texas toast. Grilled in butter to a perfect golden hue, it was thoroughly enjoyable on the palate. What I can say about the fries? They were cooked just right and smothered in bleu cheese and bacon. How could you go wrong? The Big Boy says, "If your not nearby, make an excuse to be nearby and grab some incredible grub!" #iamthebigboy #bigboydiningout“

“Good food, good service, good prices. Friendly staff. A diner done right.“

“Dejlig frokost vi fik rejer med pasta og laks“

“Great place, suggest it to everyone! Great food, great staff, and great atmosphere! One of my favs, can ya tell?“

“Melissa made our visit to IHOP absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, she was so kind, welcoming, and attentive. She had such a positive attitude, made sure our drinks stayed full, checked on us often, and made us feel genuinely cared for. Even though she was busy, she never made us feel rushed and always had a smile on her face.

Great customer service is hard to find, and Melissa went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. She truly deserves recognition for the outstanding job she does. We’ll definitely be coming back, and we hope to have Melissa as our server again!“

“I eat there at least once per month and I highly recommend the place. Servers are great, food is great, clean always. Always a good time, every time.“

“The best food with a view!!!“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit to your establishment. The speed of service was truly impressive, and the quality of the food was excellent. We would especially like to acknowledge an employee named Joy, who provided exceptional customer service. Her friendly demeanor and efficiency made our experience even more pleasant. We will certainly be returning in the future.“

“We went for the first time today and we had no complaints. Definitely will be going back. Great food, good portions of food too! This restaurant will definitely get our business again! Daniel did an awesome job and was right on everything anyone needed (not even just our table).“

“We ate at The Kings Duck for dinner last night (11/19/25) and had Fish and Chips and a Mushroom Cheeseburger both with fries. The fries were some of crispiest, and tastiest we have ever had! Also, the Mushroom Swiss Burger cooked medium rare was perfectly cooked, which is hard to get done correctly. The Fish was also very good!!! I would recommend The Kings Duck for really good food!“

“Anytime we can get away from parenting, this is the place to be! Our server Brandi has always been able to get us in and out with amazing service!!!! Highly recommend you check the place out!“

“This place is genuinely amazing and definitely worth your time and money. We came to cape Canaveral from Miami for a trip to kennedy space center and decided to give this place a try. Although everyone seemed to be from the surrounding neighborhoods and knew each other the staff was extremely nice and comforting and by the time I started eating I felt like I was a part of the neighboring community. The wings and fries from here are amazing and food came very fast in only about 5-15 minutes. Would come again 10/10“
