Walked in 2pm. Friday. Greeted and seated right away. Got there during happy hour. Apps were BOGO 50% and certain drinks too. Waitress was also our hostess. Didn't catch her name. She was nice and very knowledgeable about the menu. Even suggested and recommended some things too. Drinks were good. Cuban egg rolls were good. But weren't as crispy on the outside considering the stuffing for the egg roll made it soft and soggy. Probably wouldn't get it again. Brussel sprouts were 10/10 recommend! So good. We couldn't stop eating it. We forced ourselves to stop because of your entrees. Chicken sandwich (I didn't order it) but my friend said it was good. Chicken was nice and moist. Flavorful. Chicken was a big piece. Hangar steak frites. Fries were delish. Steak was 10/10. It was a little too well done for medium cooked like I asked. But it was fine. Probably wouldn't order that again. Definitely would come here again. Good ambiance. Variety of food to choose from. And drinks. read more

A great find! Welcoming interior. The place has a cool vibe and modern decor. The best part was definitely the service. Our server, Dallas, was really awesome and friendly. He had great recommendations and you got a really good vibe from him the entire time like he really enjoyed working there. I don't know if he was an owner or not, but he acted like it. I would go back just for the service alone. The food was delicious. We went with the Cuban eggroll that Dallas recommended and then had him split a grouper sandwich and chicken sandwich for us. The presentation was excellent and food was quite good. Very fresh and good flavor. read more

Visited on a Tuesday evening, parking was easy and the pub looks nice from outside. Walking in you can feel its' lovely atmosphere, you have the bar seating straight ahead and dine seating to the right with gorgeous plants and lights overhead. We were seated at a booth, MJ took care of us, she was very attentive and genuine, which I appreciate. My daughter ordered by herself and MJ was listening and patient. My husband ordered the crispy coco grouper sandwich and said it was the BEST grouper he's had. I got the shareable chili cheese fries because I wasn't too hungry. They were pretty good no complaints! I would go back for the breakfast/brunch and report back on that. read more

It's always a treat grabbing food and drinks at 28 North Gastropub. We love this place! While we waited for a table, I found myself watching the kitchen line and caught a glimpse of a glorious Hot Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich. I'm so glad I tried it and would recommend. My partner had the Roots & Halloumi salad and added a side of grilled chicken. She loved it, and so did I! We started off with the Rueben Egg Rolls because it sounded so strange and I got to admit, I'm not mad at my decision making skills! The vibe is fun with the hint of steam punk. The service has been attentive, without fail, over a number of visits. read more

Arrived here late with the kitchen about to close. Very much appreciated our server who convinced the kitchen to make a last order of deviled eggs. She also talked me into getting the candied jalepenos on the side. Great advice! Everything tasted fantastic. The burger and fries were huge. I thought the crispy Brussels would have crispy Brussels but the crisp was from the fried shallots. Good flavor on the Thai chili sauce but the texture was underwhelming. read more

Visited 28 North after a work event with a group of 12. We were seated immediately outside with a table already ready to go. Server had waters ready which was great. Outdoor area is really pretty in the middle of the town center with a small park area nearby. Drink orders seemed to take unreasonably long, say 20-30 minutes once ordered, with a couple folks being skipped who didn't get to order until everyone else's drink finally came. Finally able to order food at that point. Appetizers came out probably 30min later and then main courses took another hour.... we were all seated by 6pm and food finally came around 8pm. My cowboy steak sandwich and the appetizers were all amazing and tasted great! My review would be 5 stars if the wait hadn't been so painful. No apologies or explanation from the staff. And unsure if any discount was provided as would be expected for such a long wait. read more

My husband and I dined for lunch today for the first time and I have to say we were blown away by how delicious our meal was. The restaurant is so cool inside and the service was amazing. Server explained the scratch kitchen concept and a little about their history and offered his suggestions. I enjoyed the Coco Grouper Sandwich which is coconut encrusted grouper with their homemade key line tartar sauce, arugula, house slaw, red onion on a fresh ciabatta roll. My husband ordered the Hot Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich with cheddar cheese, red onion, cowboy candy and hot honey. Both came with Boardwalk fries that were fresh and hot and crisped to perfection. They gave us a side of the garlic aolie sauce to try and it was good if you like that kind of dipping sauce. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and would not change a thing for our order. The sandwiches were amazing and we highly recommend. Not sure what it took us so long to check this place out after moving to Viera last summer but we will definitely be back. A little in the pricey side but honestly worth it for the meal we just had. Kudos to the chef and server. They are doing it right!!! read more

I only got the Poke Tuna and it looked beautiful and the sauces on it were delicious. But when I got it, I noticed that the tuna was very dark. I get this item a lot of times from other restaurants and I have never seen it quite that dark. But I was in a hurry so I ate it in about halfway through, I was starting to feel nauseous, but didn't think anything of it. As the hours went on, I got more and more ill. By six hours, I was sicker than a dog. Since it was the only thing I ate, I can only guess that it came from that. It's unfortunate. Because I can tell that they really do care about their dishes. Maybe it's just an item they don't sell a lot of so the fish doesn't get turned fast enough. But I heard from other guests while I was sitting there that their food was delicious so I'm guessing that they do have great food. That's why I gave them a three and instead about one for food. read more

Sat at the bar early Friday. Wasn't too busy. Bartender was quiet but friendly. Ordered ceviche and the Spring Fever. Loved the ceviche and the sauce served on side was delicious. Drink was ok. Next round was duck wings and an IPA. Wings were very crispy and a little on the dry side. read more

Been coming here for years. Since they opened. Foods always good, typically good experiences with the servers also, but it seems they are going downhill Made me the wrong cocktail twice, decided to just order a beer after the second miss (not sure if this was the server or the bartenders mistake) Never have I ever waited so long for a sandwich... 1.5 hrs. Kitchen typically takes a while but this time was ridiculous Server checked in on us maybe twice/ three times throughout the whole dinner, took about 15 minutes to bring us our check Restaurant was empty also.... Monday night Since I've been going for years I may give them one more shot but jeez. I was pretty let down afterwards read more

Ambiance is great, but they seem understaffed and slow. The menu descriptions suggest flavorful, fun combinations. The food was disappointing - very greasy and not well-seasoned with no seasoning options at the table. For instance, chicken and waffles were well-cooked and tender, but the only flavor came from the breading and hot honey syrup. read more

This restaurant does not get the hype it deserves. Menu changes frequently for season , local ingredient's used . Craft cocktail menu has a variety of options for any gin, vodka, bourbon or rum lover. I had the fig mojito which was very refreshing , at first it was a tad too sweet but after adding some club soda it was perfect. My husband and I split the Mexican nachos, seafood risotto and fruit /cheese charcuterie board. Food was 10/10. Service 10/10, server very attentive and anticipated our needs throughout. There is an inside bar we like to sit at depending on bartender , or outside is more loungey. read more

Stumbled across this gem whilst looking for a different restaurant. Excellent food and service. I tried the wild mushroom soup which was loaded. Hubby had the coco grouper sandwich which he said was the best sandwich ever. Fries were hot and crispy. Will come again when in the area. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this local scratch "bar". The waitress explained the concept of the establishment, history, and name sake. She was very knowledgeable of the menu and made a few great recommendations. I made a meal out of the Cuban nachos and crispy brussels off the shareable menu. Because it was our first visit were where presented by the manager a glass of champagne, like who even does that! So many delicious dishes to try we have since been back. This is a stop we make traveling as it is an hour from home or I certainly would be here more frequently. Great service, drinks are a good poor, and food is yummy! read more

We came once before and the food was fantastic. I forgot to review then. We made reservations for 10:30 on a Sunday this time with a party of 7. Only 6 ended up coming and they weren't rude about it. Our table ordered the French toast, 2 kids cheeseburgers with fruit, the hog breakfast sliders, and the western omelette. One of us had a Diet Coke and it tasted off so they switched out the syrup and it was much better. They were so nice about it. They actually knocked it off the bill and we weren't even angry or rude just thought something was off. The food was so good! I ordered the fruit with the kids cheeseburgers and I was so relieved it was berries- instead of the cheaper melons that you get elsewhere. The hog breakfast sliders were PERFECT! I loved the sauce on it. Greg - our server- was so attentive and super sweet. I had requested for a quieter area of the restaurant and they sat us in a booth and because it was early they kind of seated people every other table so it was definitely a pleasant experience. Inside is like a nice upscale pub. I like that it's not near the busiest places at the mall so parking isn't a headache most times. We will definitely come back more frequently and request Greg specifically when we do! read more

I visited that place today to celebrate my sister's birthday. The waitress took my order, but what bothered me was that the staff seemed completely indifferent. In the end, I cancelled my order because everyone else at the table had already finished eating. When they brought out the dessert, they only provided four plates for sharing--even though there were seven of us. I think they could certainly improve the service they offer, but I don't think I'll be returning to this restaurant. read more

This was our second visit here and I'm so pleased to say it was just as good as we remembered it being. To start we got the Asian nachos which had so much flavor and depth, they really were a perfect start. Drink wise I went with the sweet potato fries... I'm a sucker for ube and jt was so unique and complex all in one, I really enjoyed it. The star of the show was my entree. I got the bistro filet that comes pimento grits and broccolini, my goodness was it delicious. I did wish the Cajun butter came a little more melted but I sliced it up and laid it stop the grits and it melted in nicely. My husband got the we meat again sandwich. It was delicious and had a high quality steak that was cooked to perfection. It's definitely a fun spot with lots of character. We love it and cannot wait to go back. read more

Lovely spot in Viera! After doing some shopping we decided to pop in to beat the heat and get a drink and some bites. I was pleasantly surprised with their incredible beer selection, tons of great Florida breweries and styles to choose from. We shared a French onion poutine and spicy albondigas and both were wonderful! Servings were generous. I will say that the temperature of the poutine was a bit inconsistent but we stepped in after a pretty intense lunch rush, and they were still delicious. The service was excellent, from host stand to our server, everyone was friendly and constantly checking up on how we were doing. I highly recommend stoping by 28 North if you want a great mix of unique flavors and a diverse and thoughtfully selected drink menu. read more

Excellent flavor, lovely atmosphere, delicious and unique food. They accommodated our larger party for a graduation dinner.

I'm updating my previous review after several visits of poor service and food quality. Staff looks almost borderline miserable. I was upcharged $50 for two cocktails without even giving me warning. I still love the look of the place and set up but food quality has decreased and seems like portions are getting much smaller. read more

While the food at this restaurant is good, the overall experience was deeply frustrating due to a complete lack of organization. First and foremost, our server Lewis was outstanding. He was professional, kind, and incredibly resilient while being placed in an impossible situation that was entirely not his fault. Watching him repeatedly have to return to the table to explain that yet another wine we ordered was unavailable was uncomfortable--not because of him, but because the restaurant failed him. There were two of us dining, and we ordered one of the top-shelf wines listed on the menu, a $100 bottle of Stag's Leap. It was out of stock. On the menu, the "nice" wine options are extremely limited, with a huge and unreasonable price gap: one bottle at $100 and the next at $190, with nothing in between. The only other alternatives were cheap bottles that you could buy at a grocery store for around $10, which felt inappropriate for the quality of food being served. We then ordered another $100 bottle from a different wine list--also out of stock. A third attempt, a $70 bottle--out of stock again. At this point, every quality wine we attempted to order simply was not available. This is unacceptable inventory management and does a serious disservice to both the guests and the waitstaff. What made this worse were the excuses given. We were told the person in charge of wine ordering was too focused on an event to pay attention to restocking. That explanation is invalid and frankly disturbing. If you're offering wines at these price points, they should actually exist. With firsthand exposure to a very successful local restaurant, it's difficult to justify a $190 price point for Nickel & Nickel, particularly when it's positioned as the only premium option Because of this chaos, we didn't even get to order a bottle of wine until we had already finished our meal. Only after Lewis personally called the person responsible did a bottle suddenly "miraculously" appear. To summarize: the food was great, Lewis was exceptional, but the wine program and organization were a mess. No server should be left feeling embarrassed and helpless because of poor management. read more

One of the best experiences at a restaurant, would recommend dinning here! The food was absolutely delicious, they were out of the item I originally wanted but was recommended to try the beet salad, it did not disappoint! My father had the snapper dish and said he would highly recommend as well. The staff were excellent, it was a little busy, but Joe the bar manager realized our patience and gifted us some free champagne while we waited. Kindness does not go unrecognized. The inside was thoughtfully decorated to fit the vibe of the restaurant. Very dim and romantic. read more

Gastropub in outdoor mall with wonderful happy hour, friendly staff, and amazing desserts. 4.5 stars Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Cost to worth it rating: 3 (HH great deal for apps, mains $22-39) Opentableable: no, on their site Return worthiness: yes Eve award: Happy hour that includes good food discounts Highlights: - Happy Hour: reason we came here. Loved that it was half off all shareables/apps M-F 4-6pm. For some reason, it's harder to find in the area as most are drinks only. We ordered a ton. Also bogo for all beers, $6 House Wines, $7 Martinis, and $8 Craft Cocktails. - Dessert board: oh yeah baby. Ours had a fantastic gluten free chocolate cake that was fluffy with just the right amount of chocolate to not be too sweet, snickers tart which was the best thing ever as a pb and chocolate fan, and 3 little halves of lemons filled with a semi soft custardy like lemon filling brûléed and topped with a blueberry compote. The fact that they have an in house pastry chef here is so very cool. 5 stars - Cuban nachos: pile of crispy plantain chips that were thin but just thick enough to carry the tender pulled pork. The gruyere bechamel sauce was delectable and I sopped that up as much as I could. Pickles were thin cut triangles and lightly pickled to add just a bit of tang and slices of avocado to mellow it out. I'm not a mustard gal so we got that on the side. 4.25 stars - Brussel sprouts: charred tossed in a sweet Thai chili sauce was unctuous in a good way. 4 stars - Fries: double fried, good size, hot, and delicious. 4.5 stars - Steak sandwich: my son enjoyed the thin steak on a sliced baguette. 4.3 stars - Beef empanadas: tasty and crunchy exterior but flavors more like a ground beef samosa without potato dressed up like an empanada. 3 stars - Staff: from the waitress to beverage manager to the pastry chef, all were super friendly to come talk with us and made the experience even more enjoyable. - Cocktails: pretty good, a lot of fruity types you expect around here plus things like an old fashioned with a large whiskey/bourbon list. - Wine: good amount by the glass including bubblies Midlights: - Steak skewers: 4 full skewers was a good amount and was cooked fine, but were extra salty and couldn't taste the miso glaze flavor I was excited about. 3 stars - Salad add ons were pretty spendy. Base of $18-20 then $17 for protein add on (though were fancy versions of scallops, shrimp, or filet). Lowlights: - Didn't get to try more items from the savory menu since we filled up on the appetizers. I was curious about the ponzu seared tuna and mac and cheese. Had a fun time here and if we're in the area we would come back for HH or brunch. read more

This spot is sometimes hit or miss for me. I always find it odd when more than half the restaurant is empty, but they ask if you have a reservation and have to go ask someone if you can be seated. Great place for a date night for drinks and a small meal. The menu changes often with some gourmet ingredients. However, you can dress up a burger , but if the beef has no taste it becomes and underwhelming dish. I tried the pork belly sliders and felt the pork belly itself was lacking flavor. Without all the other ingredients in the bun it would have been lack luster. For the price, I would have expected a wow factor from the dishes. Spouse said the burger was just OK. I do like that everything is locally sourced, just not sure it will be a go to spot for us. read more

We were in the area and 28 North came highly recommended. We were sat immediately and ordered a round of drinks. The waitress explained they had a new chef and a new menu which we were excited to try. We ordered empanadas for our appetizer and they were delicious. The sauces really complemented the beef. My fiancé ordered a burger and I opted for the steak and pimento grits after seeing pics of it online and it did not disappoint. The manager came over and asked how our experience was and we told him it was great. When he heard it was our first time coming in, he sent over two glasses of champagne. It was a nice gesture for sure! We will definitely be back next time we're in the area! read more

This place stands out in a literal circle of other options in the Vierra shops/marketplace. It's located on the inside circle kind of across from the Books-A-Million, and as Emeril would say... BAM! This place is good. I'd recommend just as another Yelp! Elite recommended to me. Upon arrival, as a party of 1, I was a bit confused as to the seating options open to me. The bar was a bit crowded, there was a wait for a table, so I opted to sit outside on the non-heated patio. It was a chilly night so some heaters would have been nice. Once the bar opened up a bit, I waltzed inside and grabbed a seat at the bar and the bar staff was kind and let my server know where I was. For a drink, I had the Tequila Mockingbird which was tasty and spicy. As with many cocktails these days, it gone with just a few sips. I'd probably get something different next time (maybe something more shippable like an old fashioned). For my meal, I got the grilled cheese club which looked amazing so much that two other parties at the bar perked up and asked what it was that I ordered. There was cheese melted on the inside and outside, it was cut into 4s which made for easy dipping into the tomato "soup". Pretty good. I think they forgot the bacon though as when someone asked me about it (a 3rd party that said they may order it), I realized I didn't have any crunch or smoky bacon in mine. Bummer as Bacon is King! Had I noticed before I finished it, I would have said something. Also, the Bartending Staff was killing it. I was limiting myself to 1 drink as I was driving and didn't really know where I was going, but wish I would have just sat at the bar to begin with. Next time! I'd totally go here again if I'm shopping in the area or doing something in the Melbourne area. Service was great, food was good, but get some patio heaters and double check the bacon! read more
