50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Satellite Beach

“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."“

“Personally I think it's the Best Mexican Food on the Beach, been here 30+ years and I've tried them all..“

“I'm a regular here but since I live in a neighboring county I don't get here as often as I'd like to. I haven't found a more authentic Greek Restaurant anywhere in Brevard or Indian River County. Food and service is always top notch. I find myself booking appointments around my Niki's visit!“

“Amazing Insane Chicken Burrito with Avocado! ?

The Insane Chicken Burrito with avocado was absolutely fantastic! The fresh veggies, paired with their incredible in-house salsa, made for an unforgettable flavor combination.

Despite a line out the door, we received our burrito surprisingly quickly. It was so generous that we decided to split it, but we loved it so much that we returned the next day for another one.

It’s probably the most affordable spot for fresh veggies and quality protein beachside in this area. Highly recommend!

Dietary restrictions: Manager is vegan ? the veggies are so fresh!

Kid-friendliness: Create your own burrito for each kid and not break the bank! ?“

“Wonder Waffle is a delightful spot for anyone who loves waffles. but even better they also have amazing ice cream. The menu is creative, offering both sweet and savory options that are perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. my mom's waffle dish was so beautiful. All the ingredients are clean and fresh. I highly recommend the Dubai chocolate milkshake. it was amazing but all the milkshakes we tried were 10/10. The service is quick and friendly, and the cute atmosphere makes it a great place to hang out with friends or family.“

“Excellent food. Great service.“

“We had an amazing brunch for Mothers Day! 11 of us and everyone loved their food and service was great!“

“Had the al pastor tacos and the carne asada tacos and they were great and cooked perfectly. Cooked practically right in front of you. The salsas werent spicey spicey either. They were just right. The queso and chips were perfect and fresh. I also ordered a burrito and it was huge, you definitely get your moneys worth here. On a scale of 1-10 I’d rate it a 15. It’s awesome and customer service was nice as well. Real respectful and even have the bottled drinks and cokes like in Mexico! Give it a try. You won’t regret it!!“

“Best cheeseburger chicken sandwich place I ever had and was here today on vacation! 😃❤️“

“We visited recently for our anniversary, we love this place! We were warmly welcomed in, while our table was prepared. Getting to our table, we had a thoughtful card signed by the staff wishing us a happy anniversary as well. Our server, Doug, was simply amazing.We wanted to hang out with him all evening! He took amazing care of us, and made very thoughtful recommendations with his great knowledge of the menus. We had the onion tart for an appetizer and it was decadent paired well with some wine and a nice craft cocktail. Main courses of a heritage pork chop perfectly cooked, and my wife had some amazing fettuccini. The flourless chocolate cake for dessert was absolutely divine. The service and atmosphere were top notch. We will always make this one of our regular spots! Thank you for an amazing evening, and do whatever you can to keep Doug! He is an amazing person and has one of the best service mindsets I have experienced.“

“Small local place with awesome food! Worth any wait! Five stars! Great spicy Margaritas and the CB Punch is absolutely delicious. Banana pancakes best ever!“

“I’ve now been to this location 3-4 times and every experience has been just as great and professional as my last experience. Bo was my server (I think for all 3/4 times I went) and she was so sweet, so professional, so kind, and also quick…even knew when to interject or not to interject. Great product, wonderful food and exceptional service. Thank you Bo and Umami for creating such a pleasant experience :)“

“My wife and I ate at Lellos 2 weeks ago we had pizza it was the best we ever had . We are origanally from white plains NY . This pizza was better than I ever had from NY. I spoke with the the pizza guy he was from Jersey or philly area not sure. His name is Chris he was the funniest , most charismatic gay pizza man I ever met no disrespect. Lellos is the only Italian restaurant I will eat at. Best food , Best staff , and the Best prices . 2 slices and drink 6 or 7 bucks amazing . Love you guys .“

“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 are new to the area and Masa was recommended…and WOW, we were so impressed! Amazing service, food, and cocktails, the perfect trifecta! Highly recommended and will definitely be back!“

“Amazing Wine Tasting dinner this evening at Luna Food & Wine in Cocoa Beach. The wine pairings were fabulous and spot on. Never would have thought of pairing a Chardonnay with a spicy crevette creole but it was perfect. Outstanding menu, perfect sized portions and wonderful pairings with wines from Midnight Cellars. Waiting for the next wine pairing dinner there. Chef Luca and LeeAnn are such wonderful hosts and make their guest feel like family.“

“This is easily one of the best pho spots in town. Their sandwich and Vietnamese combo rice plate are also excellent. The grilled pork chop here is the only one I’ve had that’s comparable to the style you'd find in New York.

The true test of a great pho in Vietnamese restaurant is always the broth. My trick to see if it’s made with real ingredients? Put it in the fridge overnight. If it turns into a gelatin-like consistency, there’s no doubt—it’s been simmered with real bones and not just flavored with MSG and water.“

“Yummy breakfast items and desserts too!“

“Thai Thai II was a fabulous find! Food was delicious, plentiful and well presented. Server was friendly and efficient. Went ther twice in one week!“

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

“One of the few restaurants I’d call a staple of Brevard County. You gotta try Mustard’s at some point when you’re in the 321! Food is pretty darn good but nothing I’d consider out of this world. The menu and what they’ve created out of something as simple as a hotdog is pretty darn impressive though. They got a hotdog for everyone’s different taste buds.“

“Family enjoyed a delicious meal on our way to cocoa village. Great service and even better food. The poke nachos are delicious!“

“Thai Koji, 2330 N. Wickham Rd., Melbourne, FL 32935 4.5 Stars Holy Rainbow Roll, Batman! Yet another Thai/Japanese combo hash house was staring at me from my random name generator. I have to fix this; all I'm getting lately are these places and Tex-Mex joints. This time, I was heading OTB to sample the fares offered at Thai Koji off of N. Wickham Rd. in Melbourne, FL. After being seated, handed a menu and assured my server would be right with me, I took a few pictures of the place and got ready to snap some of the menu. When I opened it, much to my surprise, I had committed a deterrational act. In so doing, I uncovered a leader in the Thai/Japanese cohort. As previously mentioned, I have a relative currently residing in Thailand. They have assured me on numerous occasions that two things you never find in a restaurant there are chopsticks and sushi. This place knew that and had two DISTINCT menus: Japanese and Thai, leaving little room for discussion. Am was our waiter for the meal and other waitstaff should take lessons from this man. He was exceptional in every category in which a server can be ranked. Well done, Good Sir! I asked Am for some Chicken Satay, Pad Kra Pow Stir Fry w/minced pork and a Lobster Roll. Sitting back and taking in the chill vibe, I wasn't too long before Am was seen returning with my feastage. I quickly dug in as the fusillade of fabulous fragrances ambushed my olfactory nerves. The Chicken Satay consisted of huge pieces of breast meat skewered, grilled to perfection and paired with a delicious Thai peanut sauce. The cucumber salad served on the side was fresh, crisp and delightful, consisting of freshly sliced and chopped cucumber, tomatoes and red pepper in a delicious dressing of Thai flavors. Next up was the Pork Pad Kra Pow Stir fry and this was also wonderful. The minced pork was tender, the rice was perfectly steamed and the side spring roll was a treat to my taste buds. The complex flavors in the Pad Kra Pow were executed flawlessly and stimulated my palate as only correctly prepared Thai food can. Moving on to the final item to be tasted on this foray into the sea of Thai/Japanese combo places, I direct your attention to the Lobster Roll. First, please take a peek at the picture of said roll. It is certainly a work of art to the discerning eye. With krab inside, fresh tuna on top and a wonderful spicy sauce drizzled to top it off, it looked far better than it tasted. I am fairly sure I got the last Lobster tail in the freezer as it came off slightly freezer-burned. If it weren't for that tiny, albeit important detail, this would have been a 5-star meal. The Big Boy says, "In a pool with a myriad of choices for Thai/Japanese places to dine, make a point to visit this one."“

“We had a great experience. The food is so good. The service was fast. Everything was excellent.“

“The food and service are excellent!“

“My daughter, niece, and I had a wonderful tea experience at The Teahouse! It was exactly what we were looking for - charming atmosphere, delicious tea with beautiful tea settings, and delicious tea sandwiches, scones, and desserts. There was also a very cute outdoor area where my daughter was delighted to find a play table with blocks and a playhouse with a very cute child’s tea set. We continued our tea party with pretend tea outside in the shade. :) Lots of books, cute clothes and jewelry, health foods, and of course teas available for purchase, as well. We will be back for sure!“

“My husband and friend and I were able to visit the beach today and I had my eye on this place for weeks. We were not disappointed. the food was so good and the staff was so kind and friendly. I totally recommend this place. And the best part, it's right near the beach! ❤️“

“Great place to grab a nicely priced average breakfast meal. I had the country fried steak and it was good nothing special but I would recommend this place if you're looking to great prices and a good meal. I loved the variety of jams for the toast. And there is definitely no shortage of hot sause after being handed the Costco sized bulk Franks Red Hot. Would go back.“

“Food was fantastic!! Never had Korean food before this. This was an amazing experience for such a quaint place. Loved it!!“
