Not impresses. .Very high price for very little. My food came out cold, they did not offer me anything while my friends ate their meals. Parking is also a problem so ladies don’t wear high heels you will sink in the dirt !
A treasure not to be missed!. First visit to the area and had heard the chef was amazing. Had excellent service, waiter very knowledgeable about the dishes and his suggestions were perfect. The unique combinations of favors on the Catch #1 and #2 specials were perfect. (Grouper and Mahi Mahi). Proportions were just right and dessert topped off a perfect meal. Don’t miss the chance to dine here if you are in the area!
Great food, very tasty. Lots of interesting ingredients and they all seem to work. Atmosphere is good great spot for a special date
Amazing foodie find!! We come here every chance we get. Absolute must for any food liver out there!
HI HO HI HO IT’s OFF TO BREVARD COUNTY I GO. Paradise Sharks Food Blog hit the road for a very special trip last weekend as we were off to Brevard County with awesome friends for a weekend to celebrate my wifes birthday. And what a trip it was. You see we truly feel life is a celebration to be enjoyed and while Commander Cody sang there is no such thing as too much fun we certainly try.It was a little over two years ago I found, quite by accident, this amazing restaurant on Cocoa Beach called The Fat Snook. Whenever we are close we go. It is so rare to find a business staffed by people who love what they do, have a true passion for what they do. When it came to food and wine and passion wrapped up into a nice little package close to the beach I hit the mother load in The Fat Snook. We send people there and they send people there. We wish they were here but there not. So we hit the road. As often as we can.So when we planned a weekend away with good friends it not only included plans for another memorable meal at The Fat Snook. All 6 of us had already been there. But it also included two trips to their sister restaurant Crush Eleven in Cocoa Village. My wife had already been there three times but the other 5 of us were virgins. We arrived on Friday and our dining itinerary (watch for another blog or two if I ever find the time) had us for dinner Friday night at Crush Eleven, dinner Saturday at The Fat Snook and brunch on Sunday at Crush Eleven. As we were living for the weekend on the water at the Cocoa Beach marina just across the street we couldnt help ourselves and Sunday evening snuck back to visit Stu at the bar at Crush Eleven. Three stops in 48 hours; its that good. In reality I could have gone again. Its that good.I could go on and on and on about the culinary skills of what both kitchens are capable of. But as we were walking back to the marina Sunday evening my good friend Chris says you know I actually think I like Crush Eleven better. I looked at him and said its Stu isnt it? We nodded in agreement. We had just spent quite a while on stools at the small bar in Crush Eleven with Stu who is like a mad scientist when it comes to craft beverages. Sundays special was a bacon infused Old Fashioned. And let me tell you Stu is a master of the bar and worth a trip just to pull up a stool and watch him work. We all sipped a little Serrano infused Patron Tequila that is so, so good. Our friend Hal, who had such a very strong aversion to tequila as a young lad stayed away all these years. But he was tempted and guess what: a decades old hate immediately turned to love with a small sip of Stus magic nectar. In fact, he ordered a special fresh peach margarita with Serrano infused tequila moments later. Magic happens here: it is that good.Our waitress Sara, who took such great care of us on Friday evening, stopped by our table to say hello on Sunday and also by the bar Sunday to chat with us. She is days away from having her first baby and it was clear that Pearl was not only her baby but the newest member of the Crush Eleven family. You see every member of the team at both restaurants has a passion for what they do and I commend management on their biggest talent of attracting passionate people to carry out their vision. Just talking with the people who work there and love what they do is worth the trip. With one of Stus cocktails in your hand it is even more memorable.I have to touch on the food and the love I taste in every bite at each restaurant. At Crush Eleven you cant go without at least trying the Green Bean Fries with smoked paprika aioli. You better not go home without trying Duck Fat Fries with garlic aioli or the Fresh Georgia Corn off the-cobb with Nueskes bacon & Parmesan. At brunch the Gruyere Grits are too good to be true. These are all just starters or side dishes and are so utterly amazing and memorable you do not have to go further at Crush Eleven. But do dig further. My entree selection on Friday was the Local Shrimp with cajun butter, corn spoon bread and crispy leeks. At brunch on Sunday I opted for the Cilantro Lime Crab Cake Benedict with bacon onion marmalade, perfectly poached eggs with fresh cilantro all topped with a roasted Serrano hollandaise. I am not making this up and am happy that they were able to snag a few of those roasted Serranos from Stu over at the bar. Amazing and just thinking about these meals has a huge smile on my face and I am already planning my next visit. If for no other reason to pull up a stool and chat with Stu while I enjoy another Serrano and Blackberry Margarita or two, or three.But remember the trip was planned around The Fat Snook and even though we only were lucky enough to make one trip there over the weekend it was no less memorable. There size keeps them as a beer and wine establishment and even without Stu their passion for wine makes any visit memorable. We are always treated like gold with extra attention to make us feel special and it is so very, very much appreciated. At either restaurant you can tell that the staffs passion makes sure each glass is special and sparkles. Each plate is prepared as if it was being placed in front of a celebrity. The She Crab Soup, the Grilled Duck Breast with crackling oh my dont get me started again! These are special establishments that we cant wait to visit again and again and again. I literally could write a book about both The Fat Snook and Crush Eleven. I love their passion and the passion of their teams. I love the love they pass along to us at every visit. I love the special treats we enjoy that make us feel special. I love these guys and girls. Really. Go. Do not ask questions just go and tell them Tom Priester sent you. Fins way up…….
