A very good place for breakfast. Itâs not over the top, but good food. I had the corn beef hash and eggs. Eggs were perfectly cooked. The corn beef hash was good. Hash browns were those stringy commercial kind. Coffee was kind of blah. In summary... great place to sit down and have a nice breakfast.

Sonny's BBQ of Palm Bay. Southern BBQ at its finest. Slow-smoking favorites like pulled pork, ribs, brisket since 1968.
Reviewed By tailsofpineapplecoco
We lived in North Alabama prior to moving to Florida so we definitely know a thing or two about great BBQ. Sonny's has always been the only BBQ place we've liked here in the Melbourne area. However, we picked up lunch from here last Thursday and were really disappointed. First of all, even though we were the only car in line, it took at least 20 minutes to get our to-go which we felt was way too long. My brisket was very fatty and practically flavorless. My baked beans and mac n'cheese were just so-so. My husband liked his pulled pork sandwich but was disappointed by how small it was for the cost. The cashier had asked us our sauce preference and we asked for sweet but when we got home we realized he had given us 1 packet each of 8 difference sauces so not enough of any one thing to use. It was well over $30 for a simple lunch for the 2 of us so between the price, the quality of the food, and the wait time, I'm not sure that we will be back.

Brenda is the sweetest and friendliest waitress. She has a knowledge of the menu and makes you feel like family. So much charisma and charming personality, really lucky to have been seated in her section. The food was spectacular. Thank you Brenda.

We were a party of 10, and this place did not have adequate seating so they separated our party which made it impossible to visit with each other and the whole purpose of this dinner outing was to visit with family we don't see often since we live hours away. It did not make for a pleasant dinner outing! I do not recommend going to this place with a large group!

Iâm so happy we decided to try Hemingwayâs last night before the movies. We sat at the bar and Sam took good care of us. The cocktail selection was amazing. The food was different and delicious.

I went to Texas Roadhouse after work with some coworkers last week and had a pretty good meal. The waitress was fairly accommodating but could have been a bit more friendly. I don't think she smiled the whole time we were there. Our steaks were cooked as ordered and the prices were reasonable.

Food selection is excellent! Covers the entire food spectrum! It's a hidden gem in Palm Bay! Outshines places such as Buffalo Wild Wings, Gators Dockside, Long Doggers, Hooters, etc. I would say the prices are on the higher side! But comparable to the other places I mentioned above. The food is far superior!Not sure why they are located in that Plaza? I hope their business is doing well there?

As you enter this charming restaurant under its lovely canopy, through red double doors, you know that you will experience something special. A riot of colorful shades of red and plenty of wood surround the small reception area greet you. Large, lively French-themed art works vie for your attention. Subdued lighting calms the bright colors and art work. An attractive bar just inside the entrance entices you for cocktails. Or, sit by the fireplace and enjoy a cocktail while you listen to the live piano music performed nightly. Even dine alfresco when the weather is pleasant. Your choices are many.I made a reservation online during off-season for a Sunday evening requesting seating for two by a window at 6 PM in the main dining room. We arrived early and easily found parking in their private lot. The restaurant was not busy. We were greeted warmly and escorted to our table. Menus were handed to us as we sat down. James, our server, took our wine orders and returned with a basket of warm bread, which is shipped daily from New Jersey. He described the Chefâs Special and his own recommendation, which both sounded temping, but we were enticed to dine here for their Flavor! on the Space Coast Menu. It offered a $40 4-course price fixe dinner during the month of October. We ordered two different appetizers so that we could share; both were equally good. The six Escargots had a white wine, garlic, pesto cream sauce that was delicious. We sopped up the extra sauce with the bread; it was that good. The Calamari was a very generous portion, flash fried and served with a small pot of marinara sauce â we wished for a bit more sauce, though. We both ordered the House Salad; fresh dark greens were topped with cranberries, walnuts, tomatoes and blue cheese. It was chilled and very refreshing. We had a choice of five entrees on the Flavor! menu, but we both chose the 8-ounce USDA Filet Mignon served in a demi-glace over tender roasted fingerling potatoes. It was prepared rare to our specifications and was tender and very filling. Other choices on the Flavor! menu were Seared Salmon, Roasted Chicken, Tortellini Quattro Formaggi and Vegetarian. For dessert we ordered NY-Style Cheesecake and Key Lime Pie. My dessert came with a lit candle to celebrate my birthday. If you dine before 6:30 be sure to request the Early Dining Menu. Service throughout the meal was attentive; water glasses refilled, bread basket refreshed, even napkins refolded when we left the table. James was quite personable, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I canât say enough about the beauty of the dining room. Tables are dressed in white linens with soft leather chairs. Large glass doors face the small side & back patios, white curtains dress the other two walls with long strands of small white lights. In the center is a striking chandelier over a large gleaming oval wood table with curtains draped around it. It is such a romantic setting. Lighting is subdued and it is a much quieter feeling than at the front area. If you want an upscale dining experience, with fine food, excellent service and a beautiful ambiance, you cannot top this restaurant. I have eaten here several times and am still impressed. Come early for a drink at the bar and stay late to listen to the piano music. As we departed, the sun was setting over the river, so we walked over to enjoy the view. It was the perfect ending for a perfect early birthday celebration.
