50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Port Saint John

“The food is great. No complaints at all with the taste. The time it takes to finally get the food, though, is quite the process. I have done both fine in and takeout. Both are equally time consuming. I even came 10min after they said it would be ready and still had to stand and wait another 15min or more. The service is also inattentive when it comes to taking orders and realizing when your party is ready to leave. This is the same scene for both busy and non busy times. The food is also expensive. However, in my opinion, it is one of the best pizza spots I have found around PSJ, so I go when I am ready for the wait.“

“Simple and comfort food. If you are looking for authentic Chinese food in Port Saint John/Cocoa area, this is the place to go. I highly recommend this place.

“Ashley is an absolutely amazing server. She gets that customer service goes well beyond good food and a nice atmosphere. I watch her interact with everyone on the floor, customers and staff. She cares about her customers and her employers. You’d think this was her place.“

“I went for my first time this evening and everything was really good. The service was great as well.“

“June 9, 2024 6:45pm arrival To start with the background of tonight's experience there were 3 us tonight for dinner. I'm a server at a locally, my sister's been in hospitality management/sales, and our wonderful mother has spent upwards of 50+ years in hospitality/service (sorry mom!) Our server Michael started by taking our order without a pen & paper or tablet within sight. Starting with my sister first, my mother then myself he had forgotten my sisters order by the time he got done with mine. My sister and myself ordered honey-vanilla margarita's before the food and while tasty they had very little alcohol. Typically I'll order one drink and 2 if I'm feeling extra spicy. I ordered a second drink with my food which sat on the bar for over 8 minutes (I should have gotten it myself but as a server i would never do that to MY server)before I stopped looking at the clock. My sister had a chimichanga which was okay while being nothing impressive. My mother ordered a burrito with double black beans which the second order of beans did not arrive with the food, and lastly myself which ordered a mojara with the fish being over fried almost to the point of a dirty/burnt taste. While the food preparation was not our server's fault his inattentiveness was because my salad that I ordered with honey mustard never came until I asked for it TWICE along with my second drink that spent over 8 minutes wasting away in front of me on the bar counter, along with Michael forgetting not once or twice, but THREE entire times to get my mother's second half of her double black beans. He took checks and cashed out 2 tables before having any approach to fixing our issues which ultimately made the entire atmsphere uncomfortable as we watched him take care of guest who had been finished eating. we watched our food get cold(or not delivered at all). Poor Michael was visibly shook and refused to come check on us once we finally received everything to make sure everything was okay. My sister sat parched without another delicious margarita for over 10 minutes before she decided she would do without. I had to get our server's attention for the check, a box for the cats to enjoy, and to speak the manager regarding our concerns. With the nicest tone possible I explained to the manager about the waiter not writing anything down, the complete lack attention to our food which half of was wrong, the server never coming back so I couldn't get the correct dressing. she didnt seem too concerned but offered nothing in compensation, no dessert was offered by staff or management at the end of our meal. I told the server what I said to the management on my way out and he raised his voice to the point of yelling/stuttering at me saying he needed to explain himself, which I promptly cut him off saying he should listen instead because I'm trying to help him. I hate to write this but I was planning on leaving $50 on a $100 tab and our service just wasnt deserving of such. I left $10 to cover the bar and busser which he didn't deserve but I can't conciously make my server tip out from their own pocket. I really should have asked for the bar tender, food runner and busser's attention to tip them myself but after being yelled at for voicing my concern it was best that I just left. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE use this as training reference to make your business better one employee at a time, from server, management and beyond. As a guest who is on the service side 5-7 days a week I just felt as if nothing was done about the situation and I left with utter dissatisfaction. Understandably things happen but from the beginning of forgetting my sister's order, my salad arriving with the wrong dressing, watching my drink die on the bar as he passed it 5x, not bringing everything as ordered, and to top it off watching credit cards being ran instead of fixing our situation was the icing on the cake. A simple gesture of taking that salad off, a free drink or dessert would have made all the difference from “

“my husband and I have gone often and are never disappointed. The food and the atmosphere combine for a great experience. We've gone for both lunch and dinner, and it's our " go to " special occasion place.“

“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!!.“

“The food was far beyond my expectations, breakfast omelet, hash browns, biscuits and gravy…. All done to perfection! Thank you Downtown Diner, I’m so glad to have found you all! 🤤“

“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.“

“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.“

“Loved finding this place.
Comfortable and small.
The staff took awesome care of us!

No food pictures, as we must have been hungry.
Pretzel with beer cheese and mustard. I don’t normally like beer cheese. This place changed my mind! You should definitely try it.
Buffalo chicken dip - fantastic. I wish I had more dipping items to finish it. Yummy.
Beer - I am a light weight beer drinker. I enjoyed the Liquid Bread. But I suggest the Spicy Raspberry Liquid Bread.

Atmosphere - great theme. Wrenches on the taps. Bicycles above the cabinets.“

“Highly recommend Outback Steakhouse. Big shout out to our waitress Hope. We had a party of 8 and she got our order right and offered drink refills several times. She was very friendly and provided great service.“

“Our food was great, but our server Sheri took our experience to the next level! She was so friendly and helpful with all of our questions. My son has some dietary restrictions that make going out difficult, but Sheri made us feel comfortable like I never have before! We will definitely be back!“

“We are regulars to Muddies on Sunday am and sometimes during the week. Today I had the shrimp basket for breakfast. I saw it last Sunday and thought I would have it today. I was not disappointed at all! Great breakfast item. We love all the staff, friendly, thoughtful and quick to smile. We love Carrie, Debbie and MS Bonnie. The owners John and Debbie are always quick to please no matter how busy they may bee. thank you for wonderful breakfast or lunches. We appreciate everyone's hard work. Thank you everyone.“

“We often eat at Cracker Barrel after church; the only problem is that ALOT of other people enjoy eating here. The good; most of the waitresses are very friendly and some actually remember to bring the extras that you ask for even though they are crazy busy (cb). They seat you fairly quickly even when they are cb. Yum, so glad they added lattes to the menu and same price as every coffee shop The not so good; the acoustics in all Cracker Barrel’s stinks. You can barely hear your table mates especially when it is cb. I SOO wish they offered waffles. Overall, we all enjoy eating here even for dinner sometimes 🥰 PS. The campfire chicken was amazing!!“

“Best pie in town. always good to BA with Steven as well. Great place“

“I had lunch today and the brisket and pulled pork was out of this world. The service was exceptional and the staff was extremely friendly. I'll definitely be back.“

“Island Gecko has the best breakfast/lunch food around. your an idiot if you don't give them a try. I have never had a bad meal there. The owner and their staff are so amazing. This place is my go- to 100%.“

“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.“

“My son and I ate here for lunch and he loved it. He’s been asking to go here for some time. He loves sushi and I knew he would enjoy it. Our waitress whose name was Faith, I believe, was also super sweet too. Nice little place and atmosphere and great food! We will definitely be back. He wants to try the whole menu.“

“We had a lovely lunch in a relaxing setting. Our food was delicious and service was great. I will be back!“

“Wonderful meal got chicken fried steak eggs great service“

“Great pizza but the staff is very unprofessional and rude“

“I bought 4 friends for lunch on Saturday as this has been my favorite restaurant in Brevard County since the 70's. Even had my daughter's pre-wedding luncheon there. These 4 ladies had never been to the Cafe. Their meals were fabulous. The waitresses were amazing. We had a different waitress who took our coffee order. I did not get her name. She was blonde and short. She began to get rude and continued until we left. So what would have been a lovely experience, ended. They will never go back.“

“We love the Pizza Company. Crack sub and a large cheese is our go to order for the fam! Thanks for all you do in the community and for being the neighborhood go to pizza spot.“

“Check this place out if you are in the area. Their food is great and I love their coffee. You will not be disappointed!“

“Was looking for a perfect brunch to take my mom who loves things cooked with real butter and fresh ingredients. We were served by two lovely girls named Hannah. Our coconut macadamia pancakes, brioche french toast, seasoned potatoes, and poached eggs were divine. We had the Havana cappuccinos as well. Chef's kiss. Highly recommend. We will return with the rest of the fam.“

“Old school diner, simple atmosphere, good food. Go there for a good, hot meal.“

“Wish they were closer to us near New Smyrna. The beers are always a great mix of types. The food is unique and very delicious. Friendly service everywhere.“

“I really really like the shrimp and vegetables PHO, and absolutely 💕 the Summer Rolls and Peanut sauce. UBER delivery is always quick!“

“Best craft Pilsner in Central Florida! 😎“

“Delicious pizza in a cozy family restaurant. Always good food, no matter what we have ordered. Grazie!!“

“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.“

“My husband and I went for breakfast and Luved it. Great breakfast and prices and a friendly atmosphere. We will be going again and maybe try lunch menu. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“5 🌟 steak skewers my goodness don’t get me started on the onion rings“

“A group of us went for the early bird special -which is an amazing deal- and ate so much flavorful, juicy, fresh meat! Tried and liked them all. They have a large tasty 3 station salad and hot bar to fill up on as well. Try it once at least! (you'll want to go back). Staff is very friendly, helpful and casual; it's fine dining without the uncomfortable stiffness that often comes with fine dining. Chef was taking requests. Not crowded and they were cool with us hanging out talking for a long time after our meal. Great cheesy rolls. Highly recommend.“

“Cocoa Beach, FL. Surprisingly fresh and healthy salads! The menu’s not just hamburgers and pub food. They have a good variety of salads.

As a birthday treat, we came here to Cocoa Village as my friend wished. When we got hungry, Pub Americana met our health needs.

Their Wedge Salad featured Gorgonzola cheese, crisp bacon chunks, cherry tomato halves, thin red onion slices and blue cheese dressing over a couple little wedges of iceberg lettuce. It was delicious and filling and it met my needs for a low carb, lower-potassium meal.

My friends both got the Steak Caprese salads: Grilled tenderloin steak bites (a lot of them!), fresh mozzarella, grape tomatoes, Arcadian greens drizzled with a balsamic reduction. They were delighted with how good everything tasted.

We sat outside and enjoyed the fresh sea air. Pub Americana is across the street from Taylor Park, and beyond that you can see the ocean.

Like many of the establishments in Cocoa Village, Pub Americana welcomes dogs, so we had two furry friends sitting near us with their families.

Our server (short dark hair) was wonderful. They knew what they were doing, remembered all the details, kept our glasses topped off, and checked on us and everyone outside very well. This was on Saturday, 5/31/25, around 1:25 pm.

I recommend sitting outdoors here, if you can.

By the way, their bathroom is to the left of the entrance and you go down a big dip in the floor that’s hard to see. Both my friends stumbled a bit going down and up that section of flooring. They commented the incline down could be better marked with a warning.“

“It was an excellent experience where the food was outstanding and the staff were courteous friendly and quick to wait on me.

Dietary restrictions: I am allergic to eggs and they were conscientious about making sure the products I was requesting not have eggs in them.

Parking: It was more than enough parking to where you could park and not walk far.
There are several spaces in the front of the building that are a very very close distance to the main dining room, marked handicapped and easily accessible to a handicap ramp.“

“The best spicy tuna we’ve ever had. Always stop in for dinner or lunch when we are in the area. They also have some of the best Thai food I’ve found in Florida! Always great staff and friendly service. You won’t be disappointed.“

“They have some great food! Also, you can call your order in and pay ahead of the pickup, so all you'll have to do is grab your food and go! I still have yet to try the ribs ?yet! ?✌?

Parking: The available parking spots were not near the restaurant. ?

Dietary restrictions: Make sure they know if you have any food allergies before you order.“

“Good food , lunch specials are good friendly service“

“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“

“Had not been in for a while (not sure why). Ordered the Greek bowl; with grilled chicken, chopped tomatoes and onions, tzatziki sauce, peta chunks, black olives, special Greek type rice and delicious hummus! The only thing better than the food was the excellent service from outstanding server Abby! Super professional and knows the menu very very well. (Yes, I tipped very well because it was well earned.) They had the semi-final NFL football game on, so was able to watch a bit of that even though it was unexpected. Blessedly Abby voluntarily moved me up closer to the TV, which was very nice of her. Food was 100% Service was 100%+ Cleanliness was 100% Prices reasonable - my meal was approximately $15 or $16, and I took half of it home! Plenty of parking! Added bonus: lots of different culture's food available on the menu! * Definitely coming back soon when treated so good.“
