The food quality is solid and definitely a highlight. I ordered from the happy hour menu (3 sliders and 6 wings) during the recent US match, and the flavors were on point. Unfortunately, the service was a major letdown on what was a busier night. The waitresses are all very nice and friendly, but the execution was atrocious. We waited over an hour for our food, and beers were being delivered to other tables while we sat empty-handed. This was a major sporting event, so the restaurant should have been properly staffed and prepared for the rush. When we first arrived, the hostess looked completely overwhelmed with incoming guests and could have used some backup -- it seemed like she was trying to handle everything alone. I never saw a manager on the floor, which was noticeable because the staff clearly could have used some assistance to keep things running smoothly. With football season coming up, I'm hesitant to return on busier game days knowing how painfully slow things were this time. Hoping this was just an off night due to under-preparation for the event, because the potential is there with the good food and atmosphere. I'd love to give it another shot on a quieter visit, but the service needs serious improvement (especially better staffing for known big nights) to make it a reliable go-to spot.

Pretty good first visit. My friends and I dined here one Sunday afternoon. Place was almost empty…read moreand our server was fairly new. It's a steakhouse but the menu has several other choices including pizza and wings. Inside is spacious and I noticed that they had an outside tiki bar close to the water. I ordered the New York strip and my son ordered fish and chips. Our server was very attentive so our glasses stayed full and she addressed any questions quickly. My steak came out cooked perfectly. They season the steaks with a mixture of fresh garlic and herbs. It was delicious! I opted for a side of veggies which also were good but wish they were grilled veggies. The location is definitely off the beaten path in Merritt Island but it's worth a visit.

After more than 25 years of coming to Pineda Inn, I've reached the point where I can no longer make…read moreexcuses for what this place has become. This latest visit was a perfect example of why many longtime customers are giving up. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, the kind of day when this place used to be packed with people waiting for a table. Instead it was surprisingly quiet and the inside bar was empty which should have tipped us off. After our recent experience, it's obvious why. We waited for over an hour for two sandwiches. Not a complicated order. Not a huge party. Two sandwiches. During that entire time, there was no sense of urgency from the bar waitress, no effort to keep us informed and no indication that anyone cared that customers were sitting watching the clock. When we finally asked about the delay, the response was "it's busy outside", it wasn't , in fact almost nobody. But after waiting for over an hour, customers don't want excuses - they want someone who actually cares and seems concerned about good service. A simple apology, an update, or even a little empathy would have gone a long way. Instead, the attitude seemed to be that our frustration was somehow our problem. Then the food arrived. The mahi Reuben was a complete disaster. The bread was so soggy and waterlogged that it literally fell apart. It wasn't just bad, it was inedible. Who knew that sour kraut must be at a premium when it wasn't even added. Any kitchen, or server, with even the slightest standards would have thrown it in the trash, along with the cold soggy fries. Instead, it was served without a second thought. The most frustrating part is that this isn't a one-time experience and seems to be more the norm than the exception. The kitchen has been going downhill for a while with LONG wait times and mediocre food and it seems that nobody is interested in fixing it. Orders take forever, quality continues to decline and the response from staff seems to range from indifference to excuses. A restaurant doesn't survive for decades because of its building or location. It survives because of loyal customers. I've know Pineda through many owners, it now feels like management is relying entirely on a reputation that was earned decades ago while doing very little to maintain it. After almost 30 years, this was the worst experience I've ever had here. An hour wait for two sandwiches, and inedible meal, and the only explanation being "it's not my fault." Maybe that's the problem. Everyone has an excuse, but nobody has a solution. At this point, the biggest disappointment isn't the food, it's the overwhelming feeling that nobody cares. And it's sad, as I've met the owners at their other establishment - I expect and deserve better - especially at $17 FOR A SANDWICH!!!

They even offer unlimited mimosas, which is always a win. This is definitely a great place to shoot some pool, watch Sunday football, and relax with friends. The atmosphere is laid-back, welcoming, and full of good vibes. The Bloody Mary experience alone is worth the visit. You get to choose from a variety of toppings, and Devin went above and beyond to make ours next-level. Hands down, it was the best Bloody Mary I've ever had. It was basically lunch on top of a drink. My best friend and I were living our best lives and enjoying every sip. Devin was such an awesome bartender that he even convinced us to add mimosas to the mix (no regrets!). We had such a great Sunday here and honestly could've stayed all day. If you're looking for a chill spot with great drinks, friendly service, and an unbeatable Sunday vibe, The Salty Fox is the place to be.

(I love that it comes with macaroni salad, which is less common for restaurants but is one of my favorite sides!) I also tried the peanut butter pie, which was creamy and delicious. I love a sweet drink, so I ordered the tropical tini (also great). Overall, great service/music/food!! Looking forward to visiting again!

Wow, we missed so many things about Crush! Those bacon-wrapped Medjool dates, the amazing cocktail program... so many things. My burger was new to the menu, and I can't remember the name, but let's just call it "the Butcher Burger," because I know it had a patty that was a mix of chorizo and venison, and maybe Wagyu? It was also topped with an egg and some smoky mayo. Regardless of what it was called, it was TO DIE FOR. My daughter had a huge wedge salad, and it was great. My wife's chive and Gruyère biscuit was awesome, and her strawberry-rhubarb cocktail was delicious. Honestly, we had such a good meal that we almost came back again for dinner just a few hours later on the same day! We didn't, but we will definitely be returning very soon!

Mavericks was a great surprise for us. Right next to the beach too! We went on Sunday around 1:30pm…read morefor lunch and we immediately loved it as soon as we stepped through the door. My family and I are big Top Gun fans so we really appreciated all the little Knick knacks they had. From the piano with the "Great Balls of Fire" sheet music book, flight jackets, pictures and art-work, etc, it was all so cool to see. They also have a pool table and some arcade games on the wall that you can also help yourself to enjoy. Really cool bar to come with friends. Tried Dragon Point IPA - 8 out of 10 stars. For appetizers, we tried: 1. Nachos with brisket up-charge (they don't mess around with their brisket.) 2. 1 pound of wings (came with 6-7 wings) - regular wings 3. Loaded tater tots (get it loaded, when it first came to the table it wasn't loaded and you taste the difference. Sorda like tots that came out of the freezer...) For my entree I ordered the Maverick Burger - a 1/3 pound burger topped with their smoked brisket and it comes with kettle chips on the side or you can choose to substitute with something from the "ground control sides" for an up-charge. The burger was truly cooked to perfection and it was tender and juicy. The staff were also very friendly. We only saw two waiters/bar attendants but it was fine since it wasn't busy for lunch time. May be different later in the evening. Great experience at Mavericks. Definitely coming back after a beach day.

First time here and... ngl, didn't quite live up to the hype…read more We all got the Mavericks burger--supposedly topped with brisket? Yeah... it was a thin slicer under the burger. Patty was undercooked (I like pink, but not raw) and totally unseasoned. Flop. Somehow the bun stole the show. Kettle chips were meh, tots were straight-up frozen vibes (should've gone loaded). Drinks were hit or miss--Old Fashioned was rather sweet, and the "Ice Man's Chill" had zero fizz. Definitely more bar than restaurant--no hostess, a little figure-it-out-yourself--but all good. We had our two teens and never felt out of place. Live music was loud loud... like can't-hear-your-own-table loud. Maybe I'm just old. Outside was packed--one-sided picnic bench life. Not ideal, but manageable. Clean spot and service was solid once we got going. We'll give it another shot--I want to give this place more stars next time. Pizza looked legit (thin, crispy) and smoked wings have potential. Maybe happy hour is the move. We're new to the area and love supporting local places.
