Pompano Grill - Inside dining. - Seafood Near Me - Cocoa Beach, Florida

Cozy, local and extraordinary dishes. You won't be dissatisfied! Always a good choice for quiet dining

One of my favorite meals in the Cocoa Beach area. This location in a strip mall is cozy and intimate, with only a dozen or so tables. I chose the chef's creation of the grouper. It came with coconut rice, mango salsa and a curry sauce. It was excellent. Great textures, colors, and taste. Husband had the regular menu grouper where he could choose sides. He loved it. We decided to get the chocolate dessert which was three layers of chocolate with a nice crispy hazelnut layer. It was so good. Service was excellent. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. read more

The wife and I and one of her friends r tried the pompano grill for supper the other night. It's tiny little place with a strange but alluring vibe. Seats about 40. Has a very small menu so I assume what they do they do well. Prices were a little high but not crazy. Service was attentive, I orders the triple tail and the wife ordered short ribs, and her friend ordered lobster ravioli with scallops. All three of our entrees were delicious and cooked perfectly, and the sides were fresh, but the sauces they used were not so good, they were bland and didn't really add to the dishes, I'm guessing they want the ingredients to shine and not the sauces, but just too bland for my taste. Besides that it was a very good experience read more

The small restaurant was a delightful surprise. First of all the service was impeccable could not ask for anything better. Venue is different and everything we order from appetizers to entree was delicious. What I definitely recommend!!! read more

Pompano Grill - Surf and turf - Seafood Near Me - Cocoa Beach, Florida

A hidden gem! A small intimate setting provided delicious meals from the wine down to the dessert, not one thing was disappointing. You could tell this place is run by a true chef that cares about what they are serving. The service was exceptional felt 5star worthy. Portion sizes were perfect, the speed that dishes came out was impressive but not too fast that we ever felt rushed. The night flowed perfectly. Will definitely be back! Cant wait to try everything else on there menu read more

Great small restaurant in the heart of Cocoa beach area. Been there several times and staff is consistently friendly and professional. They introduced us to some new wines that have become a favorite. Food is very good and would recommend this restaurant. read more

We had dinner here at Pompano Grill for the first time, even though we've lived here full-time for five years. We were not disappointed; every bite was absolutely delicious. Service was very good, and the table next to us was very effusive in their praise. They commented that they come here frequently. A couple of notes: it was very expensive. We definitely should have asked what the market price was for a few things, particularly the filet. I know some people subscribe to the idea that if you have to ask what it cost, you can't afford it. We can afford it, but we would've liked to have known what we were paying. Shame on us. We would definitely come here again, but I think we'd be more thoughtful about how we ordered. My husband asked for melted butter for his fish, we ordered bread as an appetizer, and I ordered "R1" sauce for my steak. The steak was so delicious and perfectly prepared. There was no reason to order sauce with an extra charge. The bread was good, but no better than bread you normally would get for free before most restaurants meals. And melted butter is just melted butter. It seemed odd to me that we received a charge for that. We ordered carrot cake for dessert but to go, because quite honestly we were absolutely stuffed. Because the carrot cake wasn't on the menu we didn't know what that cost was and that was another unpleasant surprise. It was very good carrot cake, but it was very expensive carrot cake, and I don't think it was any more special than a lot of places. I hate being that person with a mixed review but it was a somewhat mixed experience. That said, we'll be back and enjoy our 5 star meal with fewer surprises. read more

We came for the affogato-- and we stayed for the very best dining experience I've had in years! A small team creates for you a unique taste and experience, finished with artisan's master level presentation. My only regret, I will need to fly 3,000 miles in order to return to this most excellent restaurant. Please make time to frequent this small restaurant. read more

Everything started great our server informed us of the specials after dropping menu and after reviewing menu we decided to order a special that was similar to something on menu ($35). We got two apps and two specials, server tried to upsell us adding a salad (respect the hustle) we declined. As the bill came around we expected around $220-$250, our specials came out to $125 each with no information from the server, our $250 turned into a $400 dinner. It fell scammy and wrong. I would never go back here. read more

Cannot recommend enough! Truly above and beyond service, food, and ambiance. We went to Pompano on a local recommendation for my birthday and were blown away. The cacio e pepe butter, fried Brie, truffle gnocchi mac and cheese, and fish entree special were all amazing. The servers (shoutout to Ben!) and Chef are so lovely and create a comfortable but upscale atmosphere. A unique and special experience in cocoa beach. read more

Aaaaaammmmmaaaazzziiiinnnggg !! So good! The fish was so fresh and the risotto was so creamy and delicious! The teak was cooked perfectly and everything was priced accordingly! Can't wait to go back and try the crusted fish ! read more

Impressed. This small yet quant place is a hidden gem. They have the cutest date spot area outside with a beer garden meets romantic vibe Interior is dark and moody with great decor. Every table was full and every dish looked great Clint was a very knowledgeable and friendly server. Great personality and took good care of us You are getting what you pay for here. It is market price and all a la carte. If this is what you're looking for along with delicious, fresh and tasty dishes you hit the jackpot The escargot was plentiful in a delicious cream sauce and fresh baked bread that was easy to keep eating! The short rib was so tasty and soft as butter. The mashed potatoes were above the rest and the charbroiled Brussels were equally yummy You won't be disappointed if you want a high end meal read more

This is an exquisite dining experience! The atmosphere is tasteful and relaxed; the food and wine list and presentation are the equal of a top restaurant in Manhattan. Fresh food shines through inventive preparation. This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. This is culinary treat! Attention foodies: you have a home in Cocoa Beach. read more

Music was nice, not overly loud. Service was attentive , checked back to make sure everything was delicious, and it was! We Tried the Spring Fling, though the fish entrees sounded excellent. I'm unable to eat cream sauces, so my choices were a bit limited. Nice wine & beer list. No ciders or hard liquor. Very clean, nice food presentation. Portions on the "special" were diminutive, but, we are not Huge meat eaters so a 4oz filet was fine, I do think that 4 pieces of asparagus would have been a more appropriate portion, but everything was cooked well and tasted very good. On the main menu the filet is 50+ with sides a la carte. It's a very nice, Date night spot. read more

Terrible service. Lost our reservation. Stated nothing we can do. Food is overpriced and not worth the cost.

We always opt for a more sophisticated or unique last night of vacation dining experience. P/G was a wonderful experience all around. Our server, Austin was incredibly friendly and outgoing, patient and informative. From their current menu we enjoyed the immensely tender short ribs and mashers and the creamy shrimp pasta which hit all of the flavor notes. For our picky young daughter chef kindly prepared fresh pasta with butter, which she loved. Ambience was aesthetic - clean and modern with walls of plants and custom neon signs. Highly recommend! read more

While staying at a nearby resort for the next few days, my friend and I wanted to treat ourselves to a great local seafood dinner. After reading reviews of several area options (and laughing at some of them because of their ridiculous reasons for poor reviews), we landed on P/G simply because we needed to try the Lobster Deviled Eggs. I'm an avid Open Table user so was happy they use Open Table for reservations. I recommend making reservations because the restaurant is small; which is a positive point, not a negative point. Upon entry you are instantly greeted and welcomed by a smiling host/server. Our server was Justin and he was instantly likeable and engaging. (although if any negative points are brought up, we're supposed to say he was Steve, but I don't think they employ a Steve - ha!) The wine list is extensive and they do not serve liquor. So we settled on a glass of wine each. My friend wanted "Juice with a buzz in a glass" and Justin said, "I got you" and came back with a Moscato. I wasn't a fan, but she loved it. The reason for our choosing the restaurant - The Lobster Deviled Egg did not disappoint. Do not expect your mom's deviled eggs, this is classy and elevated - you will be surprised at its elegance. We chose the Filet Mignon and the Grouper with Macadamia Crust ; both were cooked to perfection. To end the evening we selected the Creme Brulee and the Key Lime Pie. Both spectacular in flavor and presentation. There was a large group present but our server was aware enough to know to put our orders in before theirs so as not to delay our meals. That was extremely considerate of him.. Overall, we had a great evening full of laughs, good food and excellent wine (except the Moscato :) ) ... just wasn't for me. If you're a local or new to the area, give it try. It's a small hidden gem of Cocoa Beach. I look forward to coming back. Thanks, LMM read more

I visit a friend who lives in town about 4 times a year so I get to try a lot of restaurants in cocoa beach! This place was excellent! The ambiance and decor are beautiful and so stylish. We had a few starters. The fried Brie was delicious! The nuts and berries with the jam were delicious. We also had the scallops, they were cooked perfectly! I had the fillet with cacio e pepe butter. It came with asparagus and potatoes. The steak was so well seasoned and had a beautiful crust. It was a smidge over cooked but it was so tender and juicy that I didn't mind! The butter was so good and added extra flavor to everything. My friend had the fish creation. She ordered it with the Parmesan crust with came with orzo, tomatoes, and pesto. This was one of the most delicious fish dishes I've ever had. The fish itself was so juicy and fell apart. All the sauces and elements together were amazing. When we come back, I will probably order the fish! read more

I heard a lot about this place over on cocoa beach, it's a small little restaurant. It's super cute, you need reservations. The food was good but I was a little surprised by the amount they charge and I have no problem paying for quality. Sides are usually not included in the entree meals. We got the filet mignon (which was more well than medium well and was charred), fish burger, bread (yes you pay for the bread), and two Caesar salads. The Riesling I tried was delicious though. I'm glad I tried it but I probably won't dine again. read more

I went to Pompano Grill with some expectations,and had no idear how limited their menu was,and I mean it,only three entrees to choose from,so I chose the $42.00 pork chop,witch was well seasoned,but a little overdone.I believe if you want to charge 42 bucks for a pork chop it has to be perfect,and it wasn't.Good luck,and let's be a little more honest with food pricing,and less presumptions! read more

Excellent friendly service and extraordinary food. First the food--I had the Diamond scallops over pumpkin ravioli with pomegranate and walnuts in a Rosemary sage brown butter with a balsamic reduction. The flavors meshed so well together. It was one of the best seafood meals that I've had in Florida on both coasts. My friend had the grouper over an orzo tomato spinach plate and she loved it. Dante was our waiter and he was so helpful and attentive. We were greeted with smiles and friendliness when we arrived and left. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Had an awesome time celebrating a friends birthday here! It was my first time in Cocoa Beach and we came here put first night. I highly recommend this spot if you have a chance to go. We got the Cacio e Pepe butter and bread to start, it was delicious. We finished every last bite of it. We then all ordered many entrees! Their quality and taste of the food was outstanding. There was soo much flavor and everything was well seasoned. We sat outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. There isn't music playing, soo prepare for a quiet evening. However if your friends are as crazy as mine, your evening won't be soo quiet. There is ample parking. I do recommend making a reservation in advance if you have a large group of people. They also have no problem splitting the , as long as you mention it to your waiter. read more

Like kids play "house", it feels like a place playing "restaurant". Ambiance is tween girl's bedroom meets beach kitsch. Service somewhere between bored and abrupt. The person I'm guessing is owner/chef hung out in a room near the kitchen on her phone and made an appearance to drop off apps. Fine dining prices for this area ($300+ before tip for 4 entrees, an entree salad, 2 apps, 2 glasses of wine) though the only people who will mistake this place as fine dining don't do fine dining. Requested the fish not be overcooked but unfortunately they were all so dry most of us only managed to get through about half of them. Big pieces of fish and prawns though we didn't find out prices (MP on menu and not mentioned by server) til the bill came. Not for me but YMMV. read more

Over priced big time. Service sub par. Food decent but cost way too much. Wine pour not generous.

Update: I had rated this restaurant 5 stars before. We went yesterday to celebrate my wife's birthday and we were all very disappointed. To begin, the menu had significantly changed. 3 of my favorite items were not in the menu anymore (Fish burger and carbonara pasta and the Slater's Taters). The Caesar salad tasted different. My wife and I shared a special called Pompano over risotto (bland taste overall), and my daughter and son shared the filet mignon (sweet sauce). They added a sharing fee of $20. Well, as I wrote before, very disappointed. We spent over close to $300 (including the tip). The only good things that I can say about Pompano Grill after our experience would be the waiter, who was very friendly with my grandson and provided good service overall, cleanliness and the Millionaire Bacon. It's hard to see that changes made a place that sadly we won't visit again. read more

Super over priced!! And food wasn't even that great. The "award winning" salmon burger $20 was dry, even the bun was over toasted. The garlic fries with lemon butter were good $8, but halfway they got overpowering and could not finish them. The risotto $55 was just ok, un-exciting. And the $55 Chianti Classico we ordered wasn't great either. Not coming back. read more

Wow! Not in a good way. I've been going here multiple times a year over the last few decades and I can honestly and unfortunately say tonight was my last.

Really good food and great wait staff. Started off with the bread and butter and the scallops as an appetizer. The butter was good but the scallops with the purée and bacon were amazing the scallops are huge and the bacon with the purée is just perfect. I had the fillet with the mushroom sauce and it was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. My hubby had the Kansas City steak with the crust and really liked it. Both my girls had the shrimp pasta and loved it. Portions are big. read more
