    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

    Thank you Brittany for an amazing service!…read more We came here for the first time from California. I have to say the ambiance is very country chic modern. The service was friendly. The food was serviced within 10 minutes of ordering our breakfast. The prices are very good considering I would have charged more for what we ordered due to the quality and taste of the food. The food is well beyond average and could even be considered 5 star in my opinion. This place needs a Michelin star! We ordered from a seasonal menu The chimichurri steak came with potatoes and over easy egg. The chimichurri sauce on top was a very good balance taste. I would come back for this every week. I was so excited to try this I forgot to take a photo before I ate it !!

    A slow morning at First watch....it was very chilly in the restaurant…read more Seated right away and had our drink order taken. Ordered up the Trifecta and a Skillet Hash. Trifecta was perfecta....good amount of eggs and meat. The waffle was hot and crispy. My skillet came out and I was hard pressed to find the avocado. It had to have been the smallest avocado ever harvested. I am sure they placed the teeny pieces where they were supposed to but the affect was lost due to the miniature slices. They did bring me some extra so I had enough. The potatoes had a weird after taste/finish. We think it was the paprika the use in the blend of the preseasoning of the packaged potatoes (server said they are seasoned when they get them). Either way it really was meh. Our server was attentive and other servers grabbed stuff for us. A fourth star is coming if they can figure out the seasoning on the potatoes.

    We have wanted to try this place for awhile now and we are so happy we did!…read more I ordered the Spanish chorizo. It was very good. I wish I had purchased sauce to go with it as the sausage wasn't as spicy as I would have liked nor the omelette as moist but it was still delicious. My side was the fried plantains which you can't ever go wrong with and to drink, an iced caramel cafe con leche. The drink was strong and tasted very good. For $5 that was a decent drink. My husband had the Big Cuban and wanted to go back a different day soon after to get it again. We didn't because financially it would have been a poor decision for price and gas but still that says something! We will definitely be back when we are in the area. It's cute inside- and can get busy so I'm told. They have a counter to order and they bring your food to your table.

    Experience: It was 10:00 on a Tuesday and we stopped in for breakfast…read more Facility: this is located in a strip mall and you might miss it if you're not paying attention. It's a small place inside with tables and chairs and could maybe fit 30 people. You order at the counter and they bring it out to you. Service: it was great, and Gia was so nice! They were very patient and accommodating to our requests. And also patient as it was our first time and tough to choose what to try. Food came out fairly quick and was fresh and hot. Food: Amazing! We loved the torta type omelettes filled with veggies and meat. We ordered the ham omelette with maduros (sweet cooked plantains. I lived in the Caribbean for 10 years and these were the best maduros I ever ate. They were so yummy crunchy caramelized on the outside and sweet and soft in the middle. Just perfect! I ordered the vegetarian omelette but added sausage and cheese. LOL! It was soooo good. Then I ordered grits on the side... they were so creamy and tasted just like sweet corn. Overall: we will absolutely be back! The food was soooo good. And they had so much more things we want to try now. Thanks yall!! 5/5!

    **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

    Yes, Five Stars from us both!…read more Why is it that you can live in a place for so long and have no reason to go over to a certain strip mall again, because there's nothing of interest to you there... But then you talk to someone and they tell you about this incredible great place to eat and you're like, Where? Seriously, there is a great place to eat over there? Wow! How did I miss that?? So, today (Sunday) my husband & I went over to the Twisted Biscuit for lunch... It gets busy, but we got a great table. If you haven't been to the Twisted Biscuit yet, What are you waiting for?? Yes, there are other diners in the area and they have a few yummy things & are friendly too, but This place - - - Woo-Hoo! Their Patty Melt sandwich & their Rueben are both Awesome! Perfectly prepared, plated, & presented... Both Tasted Incredible! My husband also LOVED their coleslaw, I personally like it cut-up smaller, but the sauce is right on point! He had Hot Coffee & I got an Unsweet Cold Tea - Both were great! But the ENTIRE Combination of our Overall Experience was Awesome! Thank you to the Entire Staff... Oh, & Yes, before leaving, we also purchased a 6-pack of biscuits to take home... Our waitress even brought a cup so I could take my tea with me! So, Before typing this review up, I NEEDED to taste each of those biscuits! Biscuits Tasted & Enjoyed... Jalapeno & Cheddar: Yummy! (We requested 2) Peaches & Cream: Yummy! Cinnamon Sugar: Yummy! Buttermilk: Yummy! & my Favorite: Blueberry: Yummy! Yummy! Amazing, Delicious, Fresh, Flavorful, & Well-Prepared Food (you can tell the chefs care about what they are making!) Perfectly Sized Portions (Of course, if you can't eat it all, just ask for a take out box!) Attentive, Friendly, & Welcoming Service (Have you ever seen a "Well-Oiled Machine"? - This is it!) (They work well together - even the Hostess!) Welcoming, Comfortable, & Relaxing Atmosphere (There was a Positive & Energetic Feeling in the air!) Yummy & Available Choices (Seriously, Check out the Superb Menu! Maybe the Stuffed French Toast?) Reasonably Priced (It's not a high-end restaurant, it's a Great Diner, that we'll be going to Again & Again & Again!) Kid Meal Choices (They're sure to love it!) Indoor & Outdoor Seating - Wow! (This is a little place that gets Super Busy at times, you might have to wait a few minutes, but we didn't have to wait!) 2 Clean Single Bathrooms (Gender Neutral - Kept clean) Large Parking area (It's a strip mall, but they are the Most Popular place there!) Why go anywhere else? They are opened Daily 6:30 AM - 1:30 PM What are you waiting for, get there & tell me I'm right about this place! -- You'll be glad you did! It's a place you MUST visit!

    Another great breakfast spot in the Bay! My boyfriend and I had a hard time deciding what to get…read morebecause everything on the menu looked great but we both ended up ordering the Mexican omelette special. I got hash browns, he chose home fries, and we both upgraded to biscuits since it's their namesake. We were not disappointed! We were served large, fluffy omelettes loaded with cheese, onions & peppers (cooked al dente which is just the way I like them - I hate when the veggies in omelettes are soggy) and topped with homemade chili which was hearty and not greasy. Our server brought us ample sides of sour cream, salsa, and our choices of hot sauce. My hash browns were delicious; they had the taste and texture of freshly-grated potatoes, not frozen shreds from a bag. The homemade biscuits were warm and flaky. I slathered mine with orange marmalade and that took it over the top. They have great coffee and pulpy OJ which is also my preference. The service was outstanding; all of the staff checks on all the tables and everyone was joking and laughing with each other. You get discounted menu items if you pay cash which is pretty cool. They also brought bowls of water to multiple customers on the patio with dogs which I thought was very sweet. This will definitely be on our rotation! Next time I'm trying lunch :)
