40 Best American Restaurants near Satellite Beach

“Great spot! Locals do it better.“

“We have a wild two year old who makes eating out difficult. We heard this restaurant was kid friendly with a water area for littles to play so we decided to check it out while we were out in the area. We had a great experience! My son could have played there in the water all day if we let him. We sat outdoors in a shady area and watched him play as we ate our lunch. Win win! I got the chicken Philly (minus the mushrooms and marinara) and it was great! My husband got the buffalo chicken wrap and also enjoyed his. Both were much bigger than we had expected! We probably didn’t need to order sides (fries and onion rings) or could have shared one side between the two of us but that’s okay! We know for next time! My two littles got the kids chicken tenders and grilled cheese. I’m a big sweet tea girl but kind of picky. The tea was good! 🙌 Our server was also great and very friendly!“

“Love it there, great atmosphere and food!“

“We love Goombay’s. From the first time we walked in, Goombay’s has been a friendly, welcoming business. The servers are very nice, efficient and fun. The food is delicious. The food and drink selection is the best. I love the customers. They’re friendly and outgoing. It’s always a good time. Mary is great. She’s a very kind lady. She not only values us as customers but has been very supportive of me as I’ve dealt with a health situation. She’s taken the time to sit with me, talk about her experiences, about my situation, offer options and totally support me during a difficult time. I can’t say enough positive things about her. I highly recommend Goombay’s for a great meal and good time!“

“What an amazing staff, my server Cosmo and the managers gave me a great experience. It was nothing like Palm Bay. I will actually never return to Palm Bay, Texas Roadhouse Melbourne, and this location won me back.“

“Great local joint in Satty Beach! Sports bar vibe inside, beach bar dive outside. Great Happy Hour and $2.50 Landsharks all day, every day! Good spot to grab a cold drink after a day at the beach, but also a good spot to grab some lunch or dinner, with an eclectic (in a good way), not-your-average-bar-food menu (the namesake Maverick sandwich was delicious). As an added bonus, they own a Space Coast relic; a broken off piece of Annie, the dragon sculpture that once guarded the extreme southern tip of Merritt Island, sits at the end of the bar!“

“Ashley was amazing!! On top of our every desire!! Got served quickly throughout our quick stay! Food was excellent and drinks were on point! Band was great!!on our favorite list from here on out!!“

“Felicia the bartender was very nice and attentive to our every need. Made great recommendations, communication and was very funny! I loved the personal touches at the bar, lighting, nostalgia, beer selection & the food (burgers and fries) was off the chain. I thought the chilled drink runner (?) was the coolest thing ever!!! I will absolutely be back. My wife and I was VERY impressed and will MOST DEFINITELY be back!“

“Such a wonderful experience! We recently visited Crush XI for the first time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. From the ambience of the downtown Melbourne restaurant, to the wonderful hostess, our sweet server Emma, the incredibly delicious food and great drinks - we had a fantastic evening! Highly recommend visiting the amazing staff, enjoying the atmosphere and talented culinary skills of Crush XI whenever you’re in town celebrating or looking for something unique.“

“Outstanding service with a smile and GREAT breakfast!!“

“The food was amazing and service was quick and accurate! We got biscuits and gravy, hash browns and eggs and our kids got the fozzy bear pancake and bacon, home fries, and toast. Everything was cooked as requested and came out quickly. The atmosphere was welcoming and cozy along with music that was playing elevating the whole vibe of this place. We will make this our after-beach breakfast every vacation!“

“Probably the best restaurant around in terms of food quality, prices, service, and atmosphere. I have been coming here for 5 years and have never had a complaint about anything. I also sincerely appreciate the fact that they do not have live music here, as many of the local entertainment options you would find at other restaurants are mediocre at best.“

“Jess and Katie are the best bartenders. Best sliders ever.“

“the best people that work“

“Sandwiches are amazing at a fair price!!!“

“Amazing creations from our favorite, Chef Bo! The menu and atmosphere don't disappoint. Bo, Shannon ,and staff are awesome. So happy to have a location in Brevard that offers Hog Fish, which is hard to find. The menu has a wide variety and the cocktails are on point. This will be on our regular list of go-to places!“

“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!“

“Ate lunch with family we had Kyrstyn as our server who was totally awesome and one of the better servers I have encountered in my experiences at restaurants. We got the all you can eat boneless chicken, ribs and double crunch shrimp for $15 which is a great deal and was good food. The atmosphere was pleasant and we just all around couldn't ask for a better lunch experience. Thanks Kyrstyn and Applebee's on Eua Gallie Blvd of Melbourne Florida! 😁“

“The prime rib sandwich was great!“

“Hands down the best bacon I've ever had. It's amazing. They have breakfast and dinner ALL DAY. Im just sad I can't eat dinner here. It's around the corner from my hotel as I'm traveling and I will come back here every time I fly in for business. The buttermilk pancakes were also great. The pancakes were massive and those were amazing. The traditional mimosa was so good. Highly recommend!!!“

“ive been to your facility twice. once in Boca Raton and in Veria. Both in Fla. and ive never been disappointed in your atmosphere, service, or you food. All rank high in my book. Hats off to you!“

“This is such a cute, fun little place! As adults we loved it, I can only imagine how much kids would enjoy it-- so much to look at and the ice cream was great! Florida in September is pretty hot, but with all the fans, we were able to enjoy our ice cream outside.“

“Great spot on the beach, we would definitely come here again“

“Excellent food. Great service.“

“This restaurant inside the Doubletree always has a great breakfast—and it’s not just for hotel guests. Even as locals, myself and my parents dine here frequently. Their breakfast buffet has a great selection at a good price. Jenna, Anthony, Manny, and the whole crew here are always very accommodating. Check them out!“

“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“

“Dustin's Bar-B-Q- Melbourne, FL- 4 Stars (Chain Restaurant Score) There are a few things we hold sacred here on the Space Coast one of those being Publix subs and the other being barbecue. Florida may be more of a melting pot than the rest of the South, but we still know good barbecue and in fact, insist upon it. I mention this as my random name generator appointed Dustin's Bar-B-Q in Melbourne as my next destination. One of my researchers was able to find out that they have been around since 1991, with their flagship perhaps being their Deland location, though this could not be confirmed. They are family-owned and operated and have expanded to 6 locations spaced from Orlando to Ormond Beach and down to our beloved Melbourne. Pulling into their Melbourne location I was greeted with a barren parking lot. Exiting the Big Boy Mobile, I am pretty sure I heard the wind whistle and witnessed a tumbleweed roll on by, but don't quote me on that. This could mean something, It could not. Remember readers, never judge a book by its cover, or in this case the food by the parking lot. The interior was COVID clean, well-spaced and pleasantly lit. I really enjoyed the plants throughout, real or not, they gave a nice warm feel to the joint. I was shown a table, handed a menu and got to work. I soon noticed a lady measuredly advancing upon my table, when she arrived, she languidly introduced herself as, Janelle. Janelle, while being competent and pleasant wasn't going to win any service awards, but she wasn't going to bring the curve down either. She asked if I had any questions or if I was ready to order. I requested an order of their Beef, Pork and Chicken Combo with sides of BBQ beans, mac and cheese and garlic bread. With an empty establishment, I was expecting my order to be done promptly and I was not disappointed as I soon saw Janelle unhurriedly escorting my meal to the table. Looking at the pictures, I can only assure my readers that from the food encapsulated therein there arose such a fragrant, down-home, Southern barbecue aroma that I nearly began to drool before Janelle had stepped back and asked if there was anything else with which she could help. Reaching blindly for my utensils, I absently brushed her off and commenced dining. The Beef, pork and chicken were all well cooked to barbecue perfection and while the sauce was nice and tangy, I measure all BBQ by Cryderman's (the gold standard) and this was not on that level. Even with flavorful garlic bread, competently prepared beans and properly cooked mac & cheese, this was just a tad short of the bar set by Cryderman's. This food was miles above Woody's and other nearby places, but not the top of the line. There is nothing wrong with that. If I'm in the mood or with a companion in the mood for above-average barbecue, I wouldn't think twice about stopping back in here. The Big Boy Says, " For 4-star food from a family-operated local chain, this place is a go-to." #iamthebigboy #bigboydiningout“
