We stopped in on a Wednesday night and they had a person playing the guitar who was pretty good. This place is directly on the beach. We had the coconut shrimp which was fabulous. The wait staff was kind and quick to take orders, check on your food, drinks, etc... we didn't go inside to see what it was like, but when you are directly on the sand, why would you want to. Great find!Glad you could find us. We appreciate your positive words about the food and service you received. We'll make sure to show them to the rest of our team. Hope you'll make it back our way soon for another great visit.Best, The Coconuts on the Beach Team

So after many mixed reviews we tried here tonight. Wow! Totally impressed. Monday night shrimp special was top notch. Tuna, wings and shrimp parm appetizers were so good. Service was fantastic and attentive. Looking forward to our return and based on our experience tonight we would recommend you give it a shot.

this restaurant features seafood with an accent on the lobster. there are two types of lobster rolls, new england and connecticut which are both very good. the new england clam chowder was excellent. there are crab legs, shrimp scallops, clams and fish on the menu so you have many seafood choices but there are no other lobster rolls in cocoa beach. they are a must. they service was great as this place uses a team approach so everyone takes care of you. the prices were standard for lobster and seafood

Wasn't sure what I was walking into, as we nor our guests (who made the choice) had been there, was done solely on a recommendation. For the starters we had (group of 4) the Escargot, Beef Carpaccio, and the fried Camembert. The Camembert was amazing! The Carpaccio could have used a touch of seasoning, but super fresh tasting. Everyone enjoyed the Escargot. For salad course, three of us chose the "mushroom and brie" soup...really good. Wife had risotto, also very good.Mains are hard to predict because everything is fresh, so don't plan your meal in advance. Fish is all catch of the day, meats are as well. Of the group, there were 2 Halibut's, 1 Salmon and 1 double bone-in pork chop.All of them were well prepared and very tasty. Three of us got the Pasta Carbonara as our "starch" and it had a super smoky taste and was very fresh tasting.From the outside, it's a "walk on by" looking place...and if you check the google street view, know that the sign has been changed, but you'd still never know how good it is.It's a one-turn restaurant, not a turn and burn. Our seating was at 6:30 and we hung out and chatted til 9pm closing. It's not a "bargain" restaurant, it is a nice 4* place. Excellent and skilled service, not fast and cheap service. You do lose yourself in where you are....Cocoa Beach....though you feel as if you could be in NYC, LA or LAS...other than some patrons in shorts...LOL...no dress code, but it's my Florida...I'm good with it.Highly recommend

The food & service was excellent! You must try the Crab Tower(appetizer). Blake, our server, was excellent too. His suggestions & knowledge of everything was very helpful. The swordfish was perfect. Our daughter ordered the Rainbow Trout & my husband ordered the Shrimp & Scallops, & our youngest daughter ordered the Salmon Salad. We each tried what we ordered & loved them all. It is a little pricey, but definitely worth it if you're wanting good seafood. We will definitely go again if we're back here again for vacation.Goooooo BLAKE !! Open till 10 pm nightly ! Bill

I have been eating at this restaurant for years as I am an owner at a time share & visit frequently. I went last night for dinner. I ordered a steak that had zero flavor & insanely tough. I was told it had no flavor because itâs high end steak & didnât need to be seasoned as much as lower costing meat. As if I only eat at cheap restaurants. Lol My aunt ordered the surf and turf meal that was a filet mignon and a lobster tail; both were tough & the steak was terrible. Baked potatoes & Caesar salad was good. The waitress was very kind & gave the kids free ice cream. Not sure if Iâll go back. Prices are to high to not get a great dinner. We're sorry to hear that you had a less than stellar experience! Your feedback is important to us, and so is your satisfaction we are looking into why your steaks were tough.
