We both had the blackened chicken sandwich with chills and a side salad. The sandwich was fine with a nice size grilled chicken breast. "Blackened" is an exaggeration, it was lightly seasoned. The salads were small but consisted of crisp, leafy lettuce (good), a single cucumber slice, and some shredded cheese. We did order cokes. Warning: they are cans with no refills. This is not stated anywhere. The wait staff was a bit inattentive and seemed dazed. The music was too loud for conversation and the chairs weren't very comfortable. It's okay in a pinch but I wouldn't consider this a must go place.

My wife and I went there for the first time today and I have to say, we were impressed. The owner, Joanne sat us at our table then quickly introduced herself. Our server was also very friendly, and quick to offer some advice on what to order when we asked. Upon her recommendation we both ordered the country fried steak with a biscuit and gravy. The country fried steak was absolutely delicious, as was the rest of the food. It has that small town, home cooked flavor. Everything made from scratch, nothing premade or frozen. We were both very happy with our food. I'm not sure why we never stopped in before, but we'll definitely come back again.

You can feel the…read moredifference the moment you walk in -- this place is owner-run and owner-loved, and it shows in every detail. Dave and Kathleen are the heart of this spot. They're warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about what they do. It's the kind of place where you're greeted like a regular even on your first visit. The coffee is consistently excellent -- smooth, well-balanced, and clearly crafted with care -- but the sandwiches are what really set them apart. Creative, fresh, and made to order, they're not your typical "grab-and-go" café food. Every bite tastes intentional and high quality. The vibe is relaxed, clean, and perfectly fits Cocoa Beach -- great for locals, visitors, a quick work break, or a slow morning coffee. It's rare to find a place that nails great coffee, great food, and genuine hospitality all at once, but Banana Winds does exactly that. If you're anywhere near Cocoa Beach and haven't stopped in yet, you're missing out. This is a place you'll keep coming back to -- and happily recommend to everyone you know.

The night before our cruise, we decided to J Birds Island Eatery in Cape Canaveral FL, which was…read morenear our hotel. For my meal, I ordered Spicy Shrimp Tacos with no tortilla, and a side of fries. The tacos have Honey-chipotle grilled shrimp, pineapple salsa, siracha lime dressing slaw in it. All of the tacos/sandwiches are served with fries, sweet potato fries, or macaroni salad. The tacos weren't spicy at all but it was packed with flavor. The fresh slaw and pico complimented the shrimp. The fries were piping hot and they didn't need any ketchup. My mom ordered the Blackened Grouper Sandwich with sweet potato fries. The sandwich has remoulade sauce, Bibb lettuce, and sliced tomato. The sweet potato fries were cold, but they quickly brought fresher hot ones to the table. She loved it. Mike got the Chicken Sandwich with fries. The chicken is topped with chipotle mayo, cheddar, bacon, romaine, and dill pickles. Mike enjoyed his meal. My dad got the Samoan Burger which has two 4 oz. smash patties, pineapple-bacon jam, cheddar cheese, fried egg, dill pickles, romaine lettuce, and J. Bird sauce on a toasted bun and sweet potato fries. He enjoyed it. Lastly, my sister ordered the Crispy Chicken Tacos with macaroni salad. The tacos are panko-crusted chicken tenders, topped with pico de gallo, shredded romaine, and chipotle ranch dressing. She enjoyed both the tacos and macaroni salad. Since the sweet potato fries were cold they brought us 2 free desserts. We got the Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake & Pineapple Upside Down Cake. The Dubai Chocolate was delicious and had a delightful crunch from the pistachios. The upside down cake was warm and paired excellently with the vanilla ice cream. Overall, I would highly recommend checking out J Birds Island Eatery. Huge shout out to both Delaney, the hostess and Charlie, our waitress, for making our visit amazing. We weren't having a good day, but they made it way better.

Everything came out fresh, hot, and absolutely dialed in. The burgers were stacked and juicy, the sandwiches loaded, and those sidewinder fries? Forget it. Crispy, golden perfection. You can tell nothing sat under a heat lamp, this was all cooked to order and launched straight to the table. Best way I can describe it given the location... This wasn't just good food, it was a full-on flavor liftoff. Like sitting a few miles from Cape Canaveral and watching a rocket punch through the atmosphere, everything about this meal just took off and didn't look back. Great people, killer food, laid-back atmosphere... this place hits on all cylinders. We'll definitely be back for another launch

They have a plethora of wing flavors that boggles the mind (Eye of the Tiger, Polish Hill Strangler, The Color Purple, Frank Sinatra just to name a few).

All in all, a great place for wings and we can't wait to come back and try one of the more unique flavors.
