    I genuinely did not have complaints for this place. At all. My food was great. We went there for nye dinner 2025. They had limited menu but it was plenty to choose from, also not too expensive which i did not expect. Good was great quality, my fish was incredible and flakey, risotto was cooked just right, not too firm but not overcooked either. Our waiter made one mistake but he corrected it quickly, and actually not too attentive which was great, i don't enjoy people interrupting my meal multiple times, he did a great job! Place looked clean and professional, and it was professional, not too relaxed. I am glad people didn't come there in shorts but in nicer clothes. Overall great place, good experience and great service. Since it's pricy i won't go there way too often but will definitely keep it in mind for date nights. P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not the stars reflect that.

    The food was SO good I dug into the NY Strip and Grouper (on menu 61 years) before I took pictures :- (. Beautiful view! Amazing service Great value 4-6 early dinner menu is such a great deal. Mud Pie OH MY! Will be back

    Sea Bass with Lobster Risotto
    Maura P.

    Summer was our server and she was just a doll! The view is spectacular, ask for a window seat but for the most part you can see the river from anywhere in the restaurant. We had the meatballs as an appetizer and they were fantastic. Finally, I was able to have a cup of clam chowder and the clams were not chewy! My daughter had the lobster bisque which was delightful. The sea bass with the lobster risotto was amazing. It was a lovely evening!

    **INITIAL REVIEW** Usually when it comes to reviewing local restaurants and businesses, I often give a five-star review on the initial review as I insist the fifth star is for consistency. However, my initial visit with family at The Chart House exceeded my expectations. It is truly the definition of Melbourne fine dining on the riverfront, as in the fine dining experience overlooking the polluted Indian River while women wear tropical flower dresses and men where Hawaiian collared shirts, khaki shorts, and upscale Krocs. In short, my family and I dressed in accordance to the locale, but overdressed in accordance to the locals. Go fig right? Still, The Chart House delivered an amazing night worth remembering, an excellent birthday gift to give my stepdad on his birthday. Though an address is provided, Chart House is located on the eastside of US-1 (Jimmy Buffet Highway) within Historic Downtown Melbourne/Melbourne Main Street. If it further helps, they are in the park with the boat drop and the town's oldest post office. On the outside, The Chart House looks like any fine dining establishment. Take note that valet parking is complimentary, but it is often rude not to tip the valet driver. So bring at least a $5 bill to hand to them. Only fair to do such. Inside, typical fine dining setup with a bar in the middle. We sat near the windows which gave us a beautiful view of the Indian River... if it weren't for the rain. No, I won't fault The Chart House for that, like they can control the weather. Our waitress, Allison, was very kind and provided insight on what we should get. One of the things I was on the fence on was the crab cake. I love crab cakes, but the prices are typical of riverside fine dining, and the last thing I wanted was a small crab cake for a $20 pricetag. Fortunately, it was a decently-sized crab cake and the fixins' brought out more to its flavor. Not only that, this is one of the few crab cakes I ate that had no shell cut into it. The Chart House was really articulate in making sure in such. The rest of the food my family and I received were of the highest caliber for sure. Altogether, we ordered the specialty lunch they had which consisted of: oysters on the half shell, kimche-fried calamari, firecracker shrimp, spinach dip and toast, baked salmon alaska with veggies, shrimp lingunie, filet mignot medallions, and the pork roast. Everything was succulent, easy-to-cut, cooked to preference and perfection. Overall, just delicious. We also got to try out the creme brulee which was delicious. This is the one I would say doesn't stand out from others, but they still made it to par with the highest standards. Ultimately, I would bring people back here again, but take into account it is fine dining so you get that fine dining price. The total bill for our meal, divided among four people was $280. That means everyone's meal was an average of $70. Fortunate my mom needed to use up all those restaurant gift cards before they expire. But to be fair, the price is what I expected and I was ready to pay. Just know they do have gift card options so if you have them, use them. As I said, The Chart House really did an amazing job and I will give them a five-out-of-five star review. They made that much of an impact on me that I am willing to give them this kind of rating in this review. I look forward to eating here again, maybe just me by myself at the bar so I can share a drink with new restaurant friends!

    Butterfly Effect Martinis

    My friend and I came in for dinner on a Saturday night. It was still fairly full after Happy Hour and sat at the bar. Cara took care of us. We had a few drinks, I started with an Espresso martini w/ a bit of Baileys added (bartender suggestion-and a good one might I add) my friend had a Pear martini. Both were delicious! I ordered the mussels appetizer as my main dish and my friend had the filet with mashed potatoes. Food was amazing. *chefs kiss*. We weren't feeling dessert after but the Butterfly Effect martini caught our eye and it's a whole show when presented. It was so cool to see the color change in front of us, highly recommend this drink. We had an amazing dinner and suggest sitting at the bar to see Cara!

    10 out of 10 does not even begin to describe this place. My husband and I were looking for a local place to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and someone recommended Chart House. I am so glad they did. The place is absolutely beautiful with a gorgeous view and if you're lucky a few dolphins might pop out of the water for you. The service is top notch. They made us feel so incredibly special for our night out, from the special menus printed for us to the desert with a candle, I could not have asked for more. Those are the kind of things a lot of other places just don't do. Monica was fantastic as our server. Now the food...oh my gosh the food...my husband said it was some of the best food he has ever had and he's lived down here his entire life. He loved his coconut shrimp appetizer and his Mahi. My steak was cooked absolutely perfectly. The crème brulee desert was to die for. Sure it comes with a price tag but to me with how wonderful the complete experience was I am okay with paying a higher price. I highly recommend if you are looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion do not overlook Chart House.

    I decided to check out this restaurant because it had good reviews but what really sold me was that it was right by the water and my best friend and myself were already staying by the coast in Melbourne so this was a perfect spot to grab some quick bites and drinks. The other thing that caught my eye was happy hour of course! They run it from 4-6pm and it ranged with good variety of drink options and food options that were all so delicious! Had to try out their truffle Parmesan fries, calamari, and lettuce cups, although I would have tried the whole happy hour menu of only I had the appetite to do so! There were no available spots at the bar so my bestie and I had the table section next to the bar which was nice to have but I couldn't see the water too much, still a gorgeous view! Just a heads up there is courtesy valet, which when it's busy they only offer that so there's usually not many spots if any for self parking. I would definitely come back for their happy hour especially if I'm in the area again!

    Coconut Crunchy Shrimp

    I love the 4-6pm daily happy hour - I came on a Saturday and enjoyed all of their inexpensive but delicious drinks on the patio. There isn't much of a view from the patio but the place is nice and service was upscale. Mojitos are like $6 and there are a ton of inexpensive appetizers to choose from. I felt like the only appetizer I really enjoyed were the coconut shrimp and the fish tacos. The prime rib sliders were alright and same for the tuna crisps. Overall it was a great place to go snack on something fancy and enjoy some drinks on a nice afternoon. Soon after we saw the sunset and it was perfect.

    Shrimp with papperdelle pasta in butter sauce.

    Our cousin was coming in from out of state, and we hadn't seen her in over 5 years. We made reservations for a Tuesday at 6:30PM. To ensure we weren't late, half of the party arrived at 6:15, the other half were in the restaurant by 6:32. We were seated around 7:09. We asked for bread. About 17 minutes later we received it. At that time we put in our tables order- skirt steak, filet mignon, shrimp pasta (which also had the Caesar salad and lava cake) and two kids cheeseburgers. We also had one order of a glass of wine, 2 waters, 2 diet cokes and one sprite. We asked for another order of bread at around 7:45. The waiter at 7:50ish brought out steak sauce for one dish. At 8:20 our meals came out. No mention of the delay by the waiter, at any point. The burgers were more rare than medium as requested, as well as the filet mignon. The broccolini was tasteless. The butter sauce on the pasta tasted like pasta water, no flavor whatsoever, I had to add salt and pepper to make it palatable and the 4 shrimp included had the texture of overcooked chicken. The Cesar dressing was interesting and not in a good way. We paid $150 for our bill which included 2 of the drinks, 2 adult entrees and 2 kids meals. To say we left disappointed was saying it lightly. Was it nice inside? Sure- There's pride in aesthetics. Did we enjoy seeing the dolphin in the water- it was a treat for the kids. But this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences for price that we've had in a while. If the food had been good, then the service wouldn't be a focus. The lava cake was the best part and that wasn't even amazing. The manager came around. We could have voiced our complaints but at that point we had complained so much to each other we were just trying to enjoy each other's company and felt it would've taken away from the night. I'm not sure I'm interested in trying it again.

    Kelly was really an amazing waitress. We were celebrating my husband retirement and they did something really nice was which was not expected but they wrote my husband's name on the menu and wish him a happy retirement. Food was perfect portion and delish!

    We visited this restaurant based on a recommendation from our hotel, the day after Valentine's day…read more We were promptly greeted and invited to sit wherever we would like. Seating was available inside and outside. We opted to sit inside but needed a jacket because it was pretty chilly. It must have been a popular spot to celebrate Valentines' day- to our disappointment they were out of some of the dishes we were interested in trying. We opted for the crab cake, which was good with very little filler. The Fisherman's Bounty Platter ($30) came with shrimp, fish bites, oysters, and sea scallops along with fries and coleslaw. Since they were out of oysters, they substituted with extra shrimp and the hush puppies were substituted for extra coleslaw instead. The portion size was good for the price. The fish bites were a combo of snapper and grouper. I didn't know which one I had, but I preferred one over the other. I did think the seafood could have used more seasoning. We really liked the coleslaw. The food was okay, it satisfied my hunger.

Clearly it's been around for many years as evidenced by its ambiance. It's clean and has eclectic seating which is charming, actually. Unfortunately it seemed to quite understaffed during our visit. We only saw one waiter and he wasn't moving very fast. It took a long time to get coffee refills and we witnessed at least three other parties leave either before they were able to order and in one case a group left telling the staff to just pack up their food so they could leave. When our order was delivered it was "good enough" for two of us but pretty ordinary. One of our party was quite disappointed. I'm sorry to say it's unlikely we will return. There weren't. Lot of cars in the parking lot which in retrospect seems to indicate this may not be a favorite in the area. Odd for a Sunday after church.

I left as a human sushi roll with zero self-control and absolutely no regrets. Round 1: "I'll pace myself." Round 2: "Okay but these rolls are tiny, so it doesn't count." Round 3: "We don't quit in this family." Round 4: I started negotiating with my waistband. The sushi? Fresh, fast, and dangerously delicious. Like... suspiciously good for something labeled "all you can eat." The spicy tuna had me questioning my loyalty to every other sushi place I've ever been to. And the fried rolls? Crispy little traps of joy. AND the vibe? Super cute, really clean, and tons of seating--so even while I was making questionable life choices, at least I was doing it in a place that felt put together and comfortable. Service was on POINT. Our server kept the plates coming like they were personally invested in my downfall. At one point I'm pretty sure they made eye contact with me like, "You sure about this?" No. No I was not. By the end, I was: 70% sushi 20% soy sauce 10% poor decision-making Would I go back? Absolutely. Will I learn my lesson? Absolutely not. Pro tip: Do not say "just one more roll." It is never just one more roll. 10/10 would roll myself out of there again.
