Huevos Rancheros
Dan B.

On a Sunday morning at 7:30am, I was surprised at how little of a gathering there was here. Maybe people had decided to sleep in, maybe people have cut back due to increasing costs (of everything), or maybe the food and service? (horrors!).... Anyhow we were greeted by a pleasant employee and promptly seated. Our waitress came and took our drink orders which came out quickly. My coffee was hot and mellow. It was ok. I ordered the breakfast Huevos Rancheros. This consists of choice of egg (I selected over easy) served over fried sun-dried tomato tortilla shells, bacon, sausage, black beans, onions, jalapeños, tomatoes, roasted corn, and green peppers. All of this topped with cheese sour cream, salsa, fried jalapenos, and green onions ($12.99). When asked, they stated they no longer carried sourdough bread. Our orders took a little longer than usual due to there only being one person in the kitchen (according to our waitress). When we received our orders, I had to ask for extra salsa. The service was very good and the salsa was brought immediately. I enjoyed my meal although I was a little disappointed in the fried sun-dried tomato tortilla shells. They were not crispy, and in fact somewhat tough. The overall taste was good however. That being said, I will probably try something different next time. There are booths as well as table seating. Interesting pictures align the walls. We were wished a good day upon leaving by a couple of employees. Service and hospitality, 5 stars Food Quality, 3 stars Worthy of checking out for yourself, 4 Stars

Meatloaf dinner comes with two sides . Added an extra
Joseph S.

This review is for a to-go order. The menu is pretty much go ole American classics. I grabbed the grilled meatloaf with mashed potatoes, green beans, and a side of mac and cheese. Everything was Meh. The meatloaf was okay. Very heavy on the bread crumbs and herbs. Macaroni and cheese tastes like it was close to a Stouffer's frozen dinner. The potatoes were a little too over whipped. The green beans, on the other hand ,were my favorite. Steamed still crispy with some butter on top. They had a great snap to them.

Cheese Fries. French fries topped with bacon, shredded cheese, fried jalapeños and ranch on the side

Terrible quality and creepy waiters. Ordered the chicken salad sandwich and the chicken salad was crunchy and seemed to have bones in it.

So we found ourselves visiting family for Christmas this week in Melbourne, Florida former stomping…read moregrounds of Jim Morrison for you Doors fans. We got up early on Christmas Eve and opted to find a cool breakfast place. After a few minutes in Yelp, we found Backwater which is nestled in Historic Downtown Melbourne. Parking should not be a problem but if you can't find some on your he street their is a public parking garage not to far away. Upon arrival we were seated pretty quickly and all the staff were very friendly. Our server Amy was awesome and recommended a few breakfast items that were awesome. We opted for the Greek breakfast and the Cuban Benedict which were both fresh and excellent. We also split their seasonal Cinammon pancake as well which was great as well. Pancakes are huge so make sure you leave some room if you plan on having one. All portions were healthy as well, no skimping at Backwater and everyone was in the Christmas spirit as well which was awesome! The atmosphere is friendly, laid back and welcoming which is great if you are from out of Town. So if you are in the area, make sure you check them out for breakfast or lunch. I am sure you will not be disappointed! So in fact he spirit of the holiday I will adjust my customary ending to say Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and a prosperous and blessed Happy New Year to all of you! Enjoy and Bon Appétit mes amis!

Wowowow! Friendly staff and incredible food!…read moreHad the Monte Cristo which was fluffy, toasty, heaven. Home fries were nice and crispy. Super casual interior and smell of yummy pancakes all over. Prices couldn't be beat either! Will be back when traveling through this part of FL next

**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more Most of my fellow Yelpers know if food were categorized by a genre, breakfast and brunch has a special place in my heart. Ergo, I am on the constant search for more breakfast and brunch places to add to my repertoire. With that in mind, I must stress that Historic Downtown Melbourne a.k.a. Melbourne Main Street has an amazing number of breakfast and brunch places. But the one I admire the most is The Roots Restaurant Tavern, which I will shorthand simply to The Roots for the remainder of this review. Though an address is provided, it must be stressed The Roots is a little "off the mainstreet" of Melbourne Main Street. Just west of the train tracks, the road splits in which the northernly direction is the continuation of New Haven Ave. or the actual Melbourne Main Street. The Roots is on the southern road, right next to The Iron Oak. Take note that The Roots is quite a cozy location. On the outside, The Roots has this look of an old saloon out in the wild west. There are a few tables and chairs for outdoor seating, excellent for people-viewing while eating your meal. Inside, The Roots looks delightfully tacky with all the knick-knacks hanging around and about on the walls. Imagine how Cracker Barrel used to look before the new CEO decided the decor should be more minimalist. But my statement on how The Roots looks small from the outside definitely shows when you are inside, too. The place is small. They definitely utilize the space as best they could, with large party seating being in the back for only one party. Still, take note of this limitation. My waitresses were very kind and attentive when serving me. But I am sure you all want to know about the food. The times I have eaten here, I have had three meals: The Eggs Benny Flight, and Pancake Flight, and Shrimp n' Grits. I will detail each in the pictures of food (if I have them), but I will say that everything here was delicious. My one lone criticism is that some of these flights are best enjoyed with another, not by yourself. On a sidenote, the restroom is clean and stocked, but there is only one and it is unisex. As I said earlier, The Roots is the best breakfast and brunch restaurant, well for me, in Historic Downtown Melbourne. So it is understandable why I am giving them a five-out-of-five stars for their review. Food, service, and ambiance are all excellent and the issues are way too minimal for me to consider them having any major affect. If you are ever going to eat at The Roots only once. My suggestion are the flights. Either eggs bennies, pancakes, or mimosas, you can't go wrong with any of them.

It's a cute place and fun to go to. I got the pancake flight and loved I could pick different…read moreflavors

Shannon was our waitress and she was incredibly sweet, charismatic, and attentive. She made us feel right at home and added such a positive energy to the whole experience. I ordered the "Kahili" Rainbow Bowl and my husband had the biscuit sliders with delicious tiki bacon!!! Both dishes were flavorful and absolutely delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. You could tell care went into the preparation and presentation. We both ordered the Frothy Coffee, which ended up being one of our favorite parts of the meal. It was such a unique and fun touch and made the whole breakfast feel a little more special. It was delicious and different from your typical coffee drink. Everything from the food to the service made this a memorable stop during our trip. We enjoyed it so much that we're already hoping to come back again before we fly home. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in Melbourne and looking for a delicious breakfast with great service.
