Always a great meal when I stop in here. Food came out fast and tasted great. Staff was friendly and attentive. Positive vibes all the time.

Fried shrimp and onion rings
David T.

Great food and service! Casual cafe open in the morning until 130pm every day, and Friday night to 7 or 9 PM I think. Very friendly service. We came in a little bit after 1 PM and they served us and we were still eating and the last customers after closing time. But they made absolutely made no attempts to rush us out the door and continue to check on us with smiles, refilling our tea etc The server was very honest when describing the oysters. She said they only have a light dusting, but cautioned us. She said they are quite small right now and so it'd be better to wait until the fall to order when they are in more season. She made other recommendations which we gladly accepted I had the clam chowder, which was New England style. The creamy concoction had a delightful hint of clam taste throughout, whereas other restaurants just seem to have a bowl of cream with very little flavor. We'll definitely order again Most meals come with fries or you can upgrade to sweet potato fries, or onion rings for $3 or four dollars. Although the onion rings were very good, I would not pay that much for an upcharge in the future This shrimp was fresh and very good. My pictured fish sandwich was ludicrously large, extremely fresh, and I believe one of their specialties. I look forward to trying their breakfast and definitely will come again.

A very nice place to have breakfast This restaurant has plenty of parking right around it, making it easy to pull in even when traffic is around. We stopped by on a weekday morning and the place was not very busy at all. There was no line or wait for a table, which was nice for a relaxed start to the day. Inside, there are windows on three sides that let in lots of natural light,. This makes the single seating area feel bright, and open. Most tables are set up for four people, and everything looked clean and well-kept. Our waitress Mary was outstanding. She was very friendly from the moment we sat down. She knew the menu inside out, answered questions quickly, and was genuinely helpful. She pointed out that the bread was freshly made in-house, which added a special touch and made the meal feel a bit more homemade. We ordered two breakfast meals--one with eggs, toast and sides and the total came to $28 including drinks. The food arrived fast, probably in under 10 minutes, and tasted good with generous portions, fresh ingredients, and solid flavors that hit the spot without being fancy. Nothing was greasy or overdone, and the coffee stayed hot. The atmosphere stayed calm the whole time we were there, no rush from staff or other customers. It's a straightforward place with good food and no frills. Overall, a very nice place to stop for breakfast--friendly service, good food, easy access, and no crowds. I would recommend it to fellow travelers or anyone nearby looking for a pleasant, reliable morning meal. Enjoy!

Chicken pesto wrap

The restaurant feels very beachy with a lot of cute marine life decor. The wait staff is so friendly and they seemed to know most of their customers personally. Food was amazing. I got a pesto chicken wrap but the French toast was incredible.

Upside Down Cafe, 718 S. Patrick Dr. Satellite Beach, FL, 32937 3.75 Stars Looking down at my random name generator, I couldn't help but get the feeling of déjà vu. Doing some quick research, I found out why. Six years ago, my device pointed me to the same location, Upside Down Cafe in Satellite Beach. I couldn't recall if it was good, bad, or average, but one thing did stick out: this place had the ignominious distinction of being the first slop house with a server that lied to me, got caught in the lie, and as such, was forced to offer up an apology of sorts. Just as I finished reminiscing about all of that, I pulled into the parking lot (it's not that far up the beach from me). I was shown a table, handed a menu, and left to my own amusement. Shortly thereafter, the same waitress as six years ago walked up and introduced herself as Mary (how could I forget?). This time around, Mary did an OUTSTANDING job to the point of making the preliminary list for the best 3Q server! What makes her so good this time, you ask? Her candor, knowledge, demeanor, timing, and overall professionalism have her standing neck and shoulders above the majority of her peers. Well done, Mary. After placing an order for the Baked Oatmeal and a BLT, I handed the menus back to Mary and focused my attention on my seraphic company. Being this close to the airbase, it was either that or focus on the heavy avignation traffic. That was an easier decision than choosing menu items at my favorite place. It wasn't too long before Mary returned laden with my order. As she placed the Baked Oatmeal down, my first thought upon seeing it was, "Did I order a dessert and not remember?" I mean, just look at that presentation! I've never had oatmeal look like this before, and the taste was just as delightful on the palate as it was pleasing to the eye. The oatmeal was dense, thick, and exceptionally delicious. This was, by far, some of, if not the best, oatmeal to ever pass my lips. The other item on the menu this morning was their BLT. For the life of me, I swear the bacon was microwaved, or at the least warmed up in the microwave, as it was not crispy. Bacon is to be crispy. Period. Other than that, it was average. At least my company was divine, so my attention was not focused on the soft bacon. The Big Boy says, "If you need a quick above-average breakfast served with unparalleled professionalism, you can't go wrong with Upside Down Cafe."

The Upside Down Cafe is a small business that serves breakfast and lunch. You can dine in, take out or use delivery options. The restaurant is pretty popular with the locals and can get busy. Breakfast has all of the basic wants. We ordered eggs, sausage, eggs, potatoes and the Upside Down Benedict. All the items were served freshly made and hot. The Hollandaise was delicious and the poached eggs were perfectly cooked. All of the staff is friendly and the restaurant is very clean.

My first 5-star breakfast review. I mean really, breakfast? This was a treat. We stumbled across…read moreit and I can say I'm glad we did. The place is really down home. This means nothing fancy. Good people, good food, good prices. I think I can safely say this is literally the best corned beef hash ever. So over the top good with homemade corned beef. I wanted more. My wife had one of their Bennies. She loved it too. Next time we are in the area, we will try them for lunch.

Banana River Cafe is proof that the smell of bacon can make you forgive almost anything…read more First, a fun fact: they're operated by a CIA graduate. No, not that CIA. The Culinary Institute of America. Our daughter actually graduated from their Baking & Pastry program in San Antonio, so we were already inclined to give the place a try. But I digress. The moment you walk in, the smell of bacon smacks you right in the face. In the best possible way. So. Dang. Good. We stopped in on a busy Sunday afternoon. The dining room was hopping. A few tables could have been bussed a little quicker, my chair needed a quick swipe-down before I sat, and there were a few chips hanging out on the floor. Normally I'd notice those things more, but then the bacon smell hit again and suddenly none of it seemed quite as important. I ordered two perfectly cooked over-medium eggs, sliced tomatoes (instead of potatoes), and a biscuit. I chose the biscuit over toast or an English muffin with absolutely no intention of eating it. My plan was to take it home for one of the kids. Then I took one bite. Friends, this was THE best biscuit I have ever eaten in my entire life. I don't throw around statements like that lightly. If you visit Banana River Cafe and order absolutely nothing else, order the biscuits. They deserve their own Yelp page. My husband got what I think was called the Power Bowl--a delicious-looking pile of rice, beans, carnitas, and all the ingredients that make a great burrito bowl. Our son absolutely housed his French toast. Our daughter ordered the Rosemary Chicken Salad Wrap with pasta salad. I sampled the chicken salad. It had a whisper of rosemary. A polite suggestion of rosemary. A rosemary cameo appearance. If you're going to call it Rosemary Chicken Salad, I'd personally vote for a little more rosemary. My daughter loved it, though. She also loved the pasta salad but wasn't a fan of the Parmesan sprinkled on top. If Parmesan must be involved, let's keep it to the kind that comes from a block and not the green plastic shaker. Just my two cents. The staff was friendly, service was great, and soda refills appeared before we even had to ask. I also loved the local artwork displayed throughout the restaurant. Every piece has a price tag, so if something catches your eye, you can literally take it home with you. Great food, great service, incredible biscuits, and enough bacon aroma to improve your mood instantly. We'll definitely be back.

Location is honestly perfect, it's one of the only breakfast spots directly on the beach, besides a parking lot the ocean access is like 200 ft from the back. 9:30 on a Sunday, there was about a 10/15 min wait because limited cook staff. The menu has some really unique items. I ordered the scramble but honestly was intrigued by the tacos, perhaps next time. The sorbet mimosa was interesting, clearly fresh but maybe too many seeds for my liking. Our server was nice, but overall the organization of the restaurant reflects in the service. Many waitresses were just all over the place and it just was not being run very well. The wait to get the check was a bit much. Perhaps on off day but I'll definitely be back.

Morning Glory has an old diner vibe to it with its retro decor and outdoor patio to enjoy the warmth. The wait staff is nice enough and was accommodating when trying to change an order. The food itself was good if not a little small. The eggs Benedict left a little more room in my stomach than I would have liked for the price and I fear that this diner is another victim of shrinkflation where the prices stayed the same but the portion sizes shrank. Either way it was a nice enough experience and good for a small quick bite to eat.

Absolutely splendid! We spent our third weekend in a row dining at Le French. It's 5 star,…read moreconsistently superb dishes speak for themselves. The chef's training and talent not only his flavor pairings but his expert execution and detail. We started with the Escargot - out of shell presentation in a delicious butter and parsley sauce that is to die for. Thankfully they provide enough bread to soak up every drop. This week we opted to sample several of the main courses off the specials. Two diners had the duck and one opted for the snapper. The duck was phenomenal, truly the best l've had, with a perfectly crispy skin and beyond tender meat. It was served with a delicious slightly tangy glaze with a side of mashed sweet potatoes and veggies. The snapper was prepared perfectly to a tender flake with your fork in a rich and savory bur Blanc sauce. Others had the French onion soup - delicious broth and cheese finish with the crispy yummy goey overflow of melt and delicious bread pieces a top. Other go to dishes - their house salad is one of the best you will ever have, the soups of the day have all been delicious and creative, for beverages we love the cappuccino and the peach belinis and for dessert the crème brûlée. This is a must in Brevard County and beyond. Also the front of house is the sweetest woman ever who is simply a delight (although last weekend was her last awhile).

Richard took my research of local @restaurants to go to Le French tonight for dinner. It turns out…read morethe restaurant was walking distance from his condo. He didn't know it was there. It is a small cafe run by a man and his wife. The husband is the chef and the wife handles the front. Richard was not familiar with French food by now he is. We started with sharing tender ramekin of escargots that were cooked perfectly with butter, garlic and fresh parsley. He never had it before but he did try one then grab another then I taught him to take the crusty French bread and soak up the garlic butter. We both ordered the beef bourguignon which is my favorite French dish. We both enjoyed it but it was not as rich and flavorful as I have had in the past. For dessert I had the chocolate mousse which was yummy and could not finish it all. Richard had the perfectly cooked and well presented lava cake which I will get next time when I come. The icing on the cake was that a family was eating dinner with grandparents, sons, Daughers and grandchildren. As the grandmother went to the restroom she stopped by to say what a joy it was to watch the two of us talk and enjoy each other. The grands who were 7 and 5 also chatted with us and asked me lots of questions about the places that I have visited. The son and DIL were from the country of Jordan. They were all delightful. He gave me some advise about Poland. When we left the restaurant, there was a full moon over the ocean which added a special accent to the day. At 10:20 tonight there is a SPACE X rocket ship blasting off from Cape Canaveral. We will watch it from the beach!!!!

I'd love to review the food, but I've never actually made it that far. The "bartenders" seem to operate under the impression that customers are an unfortunate side effect of working in a bar. I spent a decade behind the stick myself, so I understand bad shifts, shitty customers, being slammed, and wanting to throw a bar rag at someone. But these people appear genuinely offended that you had the audacity to walk in, sit down, and attempt to give them money. Management might want to consider a controlled burn followed by a complete rebuild. Seriously, if your resting facial expression says, "I fucking hate you and everything about this place," maybe hospitality isn't your calling. There are plenty of careers where interacting with humans is optional. And spare me the "restaurant business is tough" excuse. Sandbar manages to employ people who don't look like they're serving a prison sentence. Long Doggers somehow finds employees capable of making eye contact without conveying pure contempt. So apparently it can be done. At this point, I have no idea if the food here is amazing, terrible, or prepared by a Michelin-starred raccoon in the back. I'll probably never know, because I can't survive the first line of defense long enough to order it. Maybe management should stop worrying about getting people through the door and start asking why the people behind the bar seem so pissed off that they came.
