This was surprisingly good. Of course, not a 5-star restaurant, but for what I paid and expected, Ichabod's blew away my expectations. The food was great. The atmosphere was dockside. Not really noisy. The server was very friendly and helpful. Drinks were a LITTLE pricey but not bad. Tasty. No room for dessert. All the fish was good. Veggies were great. Even the potatoes were great. We'll be back. read more

Another one of my local spots for perfectly- grilled fish. We have been coming here since it opened and the limited expansion they made some years back for more diners was "just right" - they never lost the "Sauce" (and they have many options on those) of getting those wonderful portions of various fish, each grilled perfectly. I'm being redundant for a reason - each species is different and each piece of fish is different - not easy stuff. Last night was Grouper for my bride and Redfish for myself. We each started with the House salad that is always good as a first side and the plate sides are all good. Servers are all great and generally extremely busy as dinner time can be PACKED! Be prepared to wait. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outside seating is limited[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Remember that it's a local marina Bar&Grill that serves really good food - fine dining in flip-flops...[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's a local place that does great lunches too. read more

I was meeting up with a buddy and I told him to meet up at Ichabod's on A1A. Luckily, he didn't read that part and I ended up meeting him here and it was like a hidden gem. The service was excellent, my drink was made perfectly, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the view was beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the burger with chips. The toppings--lettuce, tomato, and onion--were fresh and crisp, and the chips were store bought and not homemade. The burger itself was disappointing. I ordered it medium, but it came out well done. It was dry and lacked seasoning. It almost felt like the expectation was that customers would add bacon, cheese, or a sauce to provide the flavor and moisture that the burger was missing on its own. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I enjoyed the atmosphere and would definitely be coming back because of the great service and location[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], but I'll try the wings next time. read more

Great food and nice local bar ambiance. The bartender was running the whole show tonight - and she was doing a great job. She had tables, bar seats and food and drink orders going. The mahi Reuben was delicious - I had ordered it there before. Nice swirled rye bread and made with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut . I did take-out but had a Nutrl while I waited. The cranberry was a new flavor for me - my new fav! read more

Ichabod's Dockside Bar & Grille - Mahi Reuben with chips - Seafood Near Me - Melbourne, Florida

Little place off the marina with a few outside tables. Started off with the bacon wrapped scallops which were a decent size and cooked just right. The chicken salad jerk sliders were very tasty with just the right amount of spice. I had the teriyaki salmon which was topped with pineapple slices. I felt the teriyaki was a little overly strong and hide the flavor of the fish. The dockside pasta with shrimp had a little too much pepper. The potato crusted grouper was very good, I should have asked if they could have made the dish with salmon instead. The Thai flavor was delicious. The side salads are very large. Our server was nice and friendly but you could tell she was tried as we were the last table seated for the night. Overall a good meal but I wouldn't be running back. read more

We came in starving on our way to Orlando. We came around 5:30pm, 3 adults and 2 kids. And we all have some picky eaters, one kid needs everything plain, another person is vegetarian, another is allergic to garlic... So we had to find something that everyone can eat what they want. The place was packed and it's a Tuesday's service was a little slow but they were busy. Our server was really nice and answered all our picky eaters questions. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view is nice right in the marina which is why I guess it's a little on the expensive side but since we skipped lunch, it was ok for dinner[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Nice spot on the dockside waterway. We had the fish and chips (little bland) that were flaky and fresh. The fries were nice and crispy. The daily special cheese burger with oyster mushrooms was delicious at medium rare. Tasty, juicy, and it hit the spot. The kettle chips were also decent. I also had the delicious Captain's Margarita for my drink and I'd say it's a must. Too bad the weather was a little too overcast to enjoy the outside deck. Our server was also super nice (too bad we didn't get her name) and she gave top notch service. read more

Food was delicious, started with the crab dip, steak, baked potato and Caesar salad. Steak cooked to perfect medium rare. Servers were amazing, watched them help each other out when things got busy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Was a little loud but that is expected in such a small space, music was enjoyable and several tvs on as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, a bit expensive for 3 people but the food, comfortable environment and excellent staff makes up for it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Enjoyed lunch on a lovely day at Ichabod's. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The views are so nice, on the water with beautiful boats.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server Alyssa was so friendly and accommodating. We had the clam chowder, very flavorful but a little too thick, so very rich. We had grilled salmon, grilled shrimp and wahoo bites. All very good. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Best calamari in Melbourne. I absolutely love it. Go every time I get the chance. Bar wait staff is fantastic.

Their cod fish entree is fabulous! The best I have had in Florida! The servers are all fantastic! Great service but lots of personality! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great vibe from the outside, we sat on the deck which was hopping![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We waited about 8 mins for a server to acknowledge us. She starts out with, "it's gonna be a few, I can't get anyone to come in and help me!" We assured her we were in no real rush! She proceeds to take our drink order, then quickly put "closed" table signs on the majority of the deck tables. We saw one other couple get up and leave after drinks, mumbling that they never got asked for their food order. We finally got our drinks and ordered food. The food was good, your average seafood menu items. Sadly, we were there for about 2.5 hours, longer than we expected to be there! read more

This is one of our "go to" places for lunch at least a couple times per month. Very consistent in terms of service and menu offerings. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A nice location on the water. Views of a marina and boats.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Nice specials emphasizing fish dishes. One of our favorites is the fried oyster lunch special. You can get them with rice pilaf or a nice salad. read more

Again Inhave eaten there no less than 10@ times always satisfied. This time I ordered grouper and 2 dry pieces came to my table with 2 pieces of broccoli- dry no sauce on the side and just left there while my daughter had fish with a crab topping that was good. Very unsatisfying and have always been offered some side sauce. read more

This place is a gem. Great views, very nice staffs, and the food is Michelin quality with Texas size portion and reasonably priced. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu.

Walking through downtown Melbourne and ended up at this spot. To be honest, I didn't choose this restaurant but when my boyfriend's parents (who live in the area) want to stop by for happy hour- who am I to say no? Starting off with happy hour drinks- I got their spicy margarita. For $11 you essentially get tequila and picked jalapeño juice. And it was STRONG-- not sure why I felt obligated to drink it all, it was giving like a dirty martini with just tequila and jalapeño juice. It did not sit well with my stomach. We also ordered their arugula salad with goat cheese, almonds, and their vinaigrette but the roughly chopped red onions really over powered it all. I honestly do like red onions as much as the next person, but this was way too much. It felt like most of the salad was just raw onion. We also ordered their couch fritters, I wasn't personally a fan- it was kinda just like a fried dough and didn't have much of a seafood taste. The clam chowder was okay, probably the best thing we ordered and kept us all warm on a cool Florida day. We came a couple of days before Christmas so the decorations were out- I think the tiki bar vibe with sharks and fish hanging from the ceiling was a cool touch. Where things personally went downhill for me is after showing my ID for alcohol- I could tell that it was getting some extra attention (Thanks McLovin'). And then before I knew it, they had brought out our soups with a dancing Santa singing Mele Kalikimaka to "make me feel more at home". Which, I am 100% sure that they only had the best intentions. It was just really awkward and I didn't know what else to do rather than start eating my soup. But hey, at least it was a funny little story that I got to tell at Christmas that everyone got a good laugh at. read more

We had the fish dip & conch fritters apps. They were great. I had the blackened Mahi tacos but in the salad form. Fantastic and more than I could eat. He had the bacon wrapped scallops and also great. We will be back. read more

Great food and service [[HIGHLIGHT]]it's a little loud but right on the water[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Wait staff very attentive.

Pretty much outstanding experience. Potato-crusted grouper was great, salmon great, scallops excellent. Beware of the side salad...tastes great, but had 5-6 LONG STEMS on the foo-foo Springish mix variety leaves. I typically hate those types of salad but this one was actually good except for the massive tree stems. (3-4" long never should've been served to a customer). The key lime pie was awesome and we should've tried the orange cake but didn't. Out older waitress was so nice and helpful, calm and mature-knowledgeable. Very, very impressed. Dec 2025. The best place we are all Christmas week. read more

Local bar with upscale food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Casual dockside atmosphere there are a few outdoor tables with umbrellas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Was a bit tricky to find. Amazing key lime pie: tart! Great mahi fingers. Husband loved the scallops special. The plantains were just ok. They needed to be baked with some butter and brown sugar. But we all loved this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sit and look at the million dollar yachts[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Have to knock off a couple of stars for 3 reasons: outside bathrooms (yuck....not a fan of), noise level inside, and hard wood uncomfortable and crowded seating. The food? Five stars all the way. Everything we ate was DELICIOUS & had huge portions. Crab cakes and mahi tacos that weren't fishy. Calamari that wasn't stringy or chewy. Salmon cooked to perfection. The plantains were some of the sweetest I've ever had. If outside bathrooms and lots of noise doesn't bother you, I'd highly recommend going. We will visit again during the week in the fall or winter we can sit outside and hopefully will get some breathing room to relax a bit more and not shout over the din. read more

Even during a busy Saturday, service was great. My wife and I split a burger with Swiss cheese to which we added grilled onions and grilled mushrooms. Exquisite! This burger was big and done to order. The sweet potato fries were exceptional, not mushy like other places! [[HIGHLIGHT]]For a dockside bar and grill, the atmosphere was great ... even with families with kids around, the meal experience was memorable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Nice little waterfront place, good drinks, nice atmosphere, and great seafood. Seems to be a spot the locals frequent, came highly recommended by our hotel concierge. read more

Great service ! They hosted our table / party of 10 for many many hours and did great! Thank you!

The salmon was perfectly grilled, with a crispy exterior and a tender, flaky interior that complemented the subtle flavors of the rice pilaf. The grilled pineapples added a delightful burst of tropical sweetness, balancing the rich, smoky notes of the salmon. The homemade Jack Daniels-Teriyaki sauce was well-balanced, enhancing rather than overpowering the dish. Overall, this meal was a well-executed fusion of flavors and textures that creates a memorable dining experience. The service was very nice and quick considering the amount of customers. Little group of people left happy and full. read more

Went for lunch on a cool Tuesday. Our service was excellent. Prompt and super friendly. Free refills on nonalcoholic drinks. The fish bites (line caught snapper and cobia) appetizer was quite small for $15.95, but otherwise portions were decent and tasty. Enjoyed a pub burger (thick), Shrimp tacos (huge), fried oyster lunch plate (tasty), and an ahi tuna sandwich (fresh and flavorful). [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would love to go again and sit at the bar for hours. read more

Our first time to Ichabod's and what a hidden gem. Well, I guess hidden is not the right way to describe, as it was packed on a Wednesday evening at 4:30. The property doesn't look like much from the out side, but the location is very nice in the marina. The inside decor is very beachy, staff is friendly and patrons were all enjoying themselves. Many of the patrons were regulars and called out by name from the staff. Kerri was very busy but acknowledged us quickly. She was so helpful with taking our order and offered many suggestions. I would say the food was elevated bar food. To be far we ordered calamari and shared a burger. We will be back. read more

My boyfriend and I love this place and it's often our go to restaurant. We sit at their bar, and I usually ask for the arugula salad and add steak to it. I'm obsessed. If you're a ranch person, theirs is homemade and one of the best in Brevard! Believe it or not, their filets are also one of the best I've ever had. You can cut through it with a fork! Although the menu can be a little pricey, you really can't go wrong here. I 100% recommend Ichabod's! read more
