Is anyone else dealing with a serious case of the Monday blues? ‍ Mondays hit a whole lot harder when you've just come off an incredible weekend filled with amazing food, laughter, and great friends. Friday night at Boardwalk Grill in Indialantic was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we walked in, the experience was top-notch. Our server, Bryant, was absolutely outstanding--kind, hilarious, attentive, and somehow managed to remember all eight ladies' names at our table after being challenged! Talk about impressive. We started with the burrata and fish dip, both fresh, flavorful, and the perfect way to kick off the evening. For our entrées, the steak and salmon were cooked to absolute perfection. Every bite was worth savoring. While Boardwalk may be a bit of a splurge, I can confidently say it's one of those places where the experience matches the price point. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail, you won't leave disappointed. Now excuse me while I spend the rest of Monday wishing I was back there. #MondayBlues #FoodieFinds #IndialanticEats #BoardwalkRestaurant #GirlsNightOut #BrevardCountyFoodie #WorthTheSplurge #FloridaFoodie #GoodFoodGoodFrie read more

Overall, a good experience. I'll definitely come back, but there are some serious issues that should be addressed by the restaurant. I'll give it the 4 based on menu and food quality for now (even though something was seriously wrong with one of the specials), but if I returned and had the same ambiance and food issues again I would not be so nice. Food - Excellent. 1 ordered pasta (all loved it), 1 ordered the Wagyu picanha special (loved it), 2 ordered the snapper special (1 loved theirs, but the other came out 100% overcooked. Had to use a knife to cut it, and it was ultimately inedible.) All agreed that they'd eat the food again (just possibly avoid fish special as the quality was inconsistent). Did not notify staff because it took A FULL HOUR for the entrees to make it to us from the time we arrived. Service - Excellent. Server was very good, you could tell had experience. But they were way too busy. Could not visit the table as often as they should have. Probably didn't get orders in and food moved in a timely manner. But this is the fault of management (for understaffing for the number of guests) and the owners/decision makers (that decided to cram in more seating/guests than the kitchen/staff can actually keep up with). Ambiance - Uncomfortably loud. A speaker directly above our table was either misbalanced or turned up too high or broken. It boomed bass at our table the whole time. In an already incredibly loud room because of all of the talking and the tables being way too close together, it was unbearably annoying. We had to "what" each other a lot. About those tables - please quit it. I get that YOU the restaurant want to pack in as many people as possible, but we were practically sitting in strangers laps. I could hear every detail of the conversation at the table directly behind me, more than I could hear the person I was dining with at the table across from me. All of the customers AND staff were bumping against our chairs CONSTANTLY trying to pass by or reach other tables. "Sorry." "Sorry." "Sorry." The staff said sorry to us so many times it was obvious they knew it was a problem. The only reason this happened is because they're cramming two 2-seaters behind and around two 4-seaters in an area where you really can only fit the two 4-seaters comfortably. It was also unbearably hot. The garage-style doors are open... on a day that is a "feels like" of 96 because of the humidity. There was literally ZERO air movement in the restaurant. We were SWEATING at the table. The men, dabbing their foreheads and fanning shirts. Did they have an AC? I think so. Bc I felt it twice for 2 minutes. But that's it. The thing is - the food is priced like upper end dining. And I would say the quality of the food supports those prices. But no one wants upper end dining in a crowded, hot, sweaty, loud environment. It's like having a steak in a mosh pit. Will come back and hopefully the restaurant will have worked out the kinks by then. read more

My family and I were on quick vacation and took the wrong turn going back to our Air bnb, we saw this cute restaurant and said we were gonna come back for dinner the following night and aren't we glad we did! Parking: they have their own lot but because we came at a busy time parking was tough. We found a spot though Service: 10/10! We should've made reservations but we didn't. When we originally put our name on the list they said 1.5 hrs but I think we waited 20-30 minutes for a seat. We had Ian as a server, he was great! Ambience/Crowd: It's a place for family or a romantic date or a girls night out... very mixed crowd of all walks of life. Food/drink : 7/10 we had the crab cake, oysters Rockefeller, calamari, and tomahawk steak was shared with the table. The crab cake was ok, not my fav the oysters Rockefeller need a bit more season in the mix, and my mom and brother loved the calamari especially with their sauce. The star of the show was the 40 oz tomahawk steak with Yukon potatoes, asparagus, and cauliflower puree. AMAZING!! I also had the crème brûlée which was perfect. Favorite thing: Aesthetic of the restaurant and the steak were my favorite thing Least favorite thing: the oysters and calamari Will I be back? We will definitely be back and recommend going as well. read more

We had a fantastic meal at Boardwalk Bar & Grill. We started with the PEI Sand Dune oysters, which were incredibly fresh and delicious and the perfect way to kick off the meal. My husband ordered the steak frites and it was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly. I went with the lobster and crab mac, which was rich and satisfying with huge chunks of both lobster and crab throughout. They definitely did not skimp on the seafood. Both of our meals were super filling and packed with flavor. I also had the Cucumber Breeze cocktail, which was refreshing, light, and absolutely delicious. If you are looking for a great beachside spot with excellent service, seafood, generous portions, and creative drinks, this place is definitely worth a visit. If we were locals we would absolutely be back. read more

Stopped in for drinks and an appetizer. I chose the "mom's dirty little secret" espresso martini and my partner chose the "I'm am your father". Both cocktails were very good. We ended up ordering a 2nd round. We also had the smoked fish dip. The view of the beach made this place even better. 10/10 would recommend. read more

It has taken me awhile to decide how I wanted to write this review. This is an old Wendy's converted into a very eclectic restaurant with outdoor seating and live music. My daughter and I went around 2:00 on Saturday afternoon and we were so happy they had Tapas. We got the pan fried olives with burrata (they opened the burrata, which made it even creamier than usual), truffle fries, of course and we told the server we wanted to share the pasta with the cremini mushrooms and cream sauce. The only disappointment was the server knew we wanted to share the pasta but she did not split it, nor did she give us an extra plate, so it was very cumbersome at the small table. Ian, the kid who takes the money was extremely attentive and polite. We would go back because of the food and because of him. They did an amazing job converting this fast food restaurant into a go to place for excellent food and ambiance. read more

In town for a 2 day conference and I needed to get out of the hotel. WOW! From the moment I stepped in, greeted by the host who sold me on the short ribs. His description was so in depth I wanted to order that dish! I sat at the bar where Andrea & Sophia 2 bartenders waited on me, great service and awesome personalities! Unfortunately they were out of the braised short ribs, but Andrea recommended the Branzino! She did not steer me wrong. She also recommended a Sauvignon Blanc which paired perfectly with! If you are looking for a casual dining feel with an elevated menu, drinks, and great hospitality this is the place to visit. I will definitely be back! read more

Nice location with decent parking. Outside tables have an ocean view! We've had a dinner and a lunch here. Both times the food was very good although a bit pricey. The portions are fairly large and sharing would be doable for many of the options. We especially liked the crab cakes, and the New England clam chowder. Servers were well trained and friendly. We are a bit elderly and found the high chairs on the patio a bit difficult to navigate. Will ask for regular height chairs and tables next time. read more

It's across from the beach access, so the location is premium, but of course that didn't help Wendy's. It's a gutted old Wendy's refabricated, if you didn't know that you wouldn't be able to tell from the inside....kinda. It's a little pricey even for Beachside. I had a Pint Can of Pilsner (500 ml) and it was $8.89. They don't serve Budweiser products, I think Mich Ultra may be the only American Beer. They don't take cash. The people were nice, the atmosphere is casual, the prices just hit me as high. read more

This little beachside bar & grill is a hidden gem!! The service was amazing ( Bryant ) took very good care of us and all of our needs. He made sure to inform us that it was a scratch kitchen, and it was just that. Everything that we had was amazing !!We started with the humus and it was delicious. (We ate it to fast to get pictures) and then for our main course we shared a 24 ounce bone in ribeye along with an extra side of Rainbow carrots and a house salad which Bryant was able to add the panko crusted goat cheese too, the food prices were definitely on the high end but there wasn't a part of our experience that was lacking. It's nice when "You get what you pay for " stands true . We sat on the patio with the ocean in our site! The weather was perfect. I would definitely recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a quality experience. read more

You know what's important to me ? A bar seat. The type of bar chair. 10/10 - a paddled bar seat with back and arm support. The bar seats Boardwalk Bar and Grill = 8/10 I was worried it would be busy on an early Saturday, 4pm but plenty of parking at both the bar, the lot, and patio seats (few booths inside too) Lavender haze cocktail was beautiful and lovely sweet sour flavor Plenty of wine in the menu, few basic beers on tap But really I came for the view. There are an unimpressive number of bars with a beach view around here. read more

A nice, more upscale restaurant in the area with a nice patio. We enjoyed the fish dip for an appetizer which tasted really good. The short rib was very tender and tasty and the wagyu beef was very good. The accompaniment of fries was probably not the best choice and were not that great. While it's always nice to get recommendations when ordering, I met all of my selections with an offer for something else that after a while I found annoying. Everything from my drink to the meal. It was birthday dinner and after a while I was a bit annoyed. It was not the experience I expected, but a nice place to try out if your in the area. read more

I hope to leave a better review in the future. We waited at the hostess stand for a while. To the point my friend said "do we seat ourselves?". We went on a Sunday. The ppl waiting in front of us said "we'll come back". We sat at the bar & had drinks while we waited for a table outside, since it's beachside. She said it would be 5-10 mins. We had the bartender Kayla check with her bc we saw other ppl getting seating. I was like it must be busy my friend who also works in food service/ hospitality, said "it's not busy but they are acting like it is". The beers we had were $8. Cocktails were $15-20. My friend said shrimp on poboy were small, over cooked & too much breading. The fish dip & truffle fries we both agreed were good. $24 for 3 scallops, ridiculous. I'm still contemplating if I wanna come back & try the hummus & calamari. You can't get the oyster Rockefeller w/o bacon, which means not made to order. Portions aren't worth the price. Definitely a tourist spot. Was so excited to try but disappointed. read more

Chicken was dry Crazy prices Staff was really nice Place looks great but the food was beyond being ok, they need to reevaluate their menu and the food quality. The chicken tasted like is was last weeks leftovers...disappointed read more

I had the burger and my wife had the Wagyu and both were wonderful. The only issue or recommendation I could make is do not go when it's cold out as the majority of the seating is outside and since they are forced to have an open large I had a great time at Boardwalk Bar & Grill overall, and the food and drinks were fantastic. I had the burger (amazing) and my wife the wagyu (just as amazing). The only little hiccup was that it was pretty chilly the night we visited. Because they've got this large sliding garage door open--since most of the seating is outdoors--some of that cold breeze blew right in and made the inside area a bit colder than we expected. It wasn't a dealbreaker, but just something to keep in mind if you're visiting on a chilly night. Other than that, it's a really fun spot! read more

Great location but the food prices are very high. Even the burger is the most expensive in the area. They do have some upper scale cuisine, but it would be hard to be a regular and eat there. Maybe they could add some reasonably priced entrees and sandwiches. read more

The meat (lamb chops and Denver Steak) aren't served at requested doneness when they sit under the heat lamp waiting to be delivered to the table. read more

Had a great experience dining here on the patio. We shared the truffle fries, steak bites, and the branzino which were all delicious! Our waiter made sure the food was brought out in the right order to make sure everything was fresh. For dessert we had chocolate cake with ice cream that was perfectly balanced. Definitely recommend this place for date night! read more

Good food, I had the fish and chips. Wonderful seasoning on the fries and fish batter was perfectly crispy. Noticed a lot of Tapa choices and a nice very drink selection. read more

The patio was so nice and relaxing to enjoy a dinner date! The food was very yummy and there were lots of great options! The service was quick and friendly! I will be back if we are ever in town! read more

Modern atmosphere. Delicious food- especially the truffle fries & burrata/pesto appetizers. Pleasant server with quick service. Will definitely go back when in Melbourne again! read more

Atmosphere - you're getting a nicer ambiance with good decor. Definitely doesn't feel like it used to be a Wendy's, however it's not a big restaurant so seating feels a little tight and I think a couple less tables would have made difference. Service wise, Steven was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu that helped when making our decision about the food. Wait time was good and food came out at a reasonable time. A good menu variety, definitely had a lot of interesting choices that you're not gonna find at many other restaurants. Wagyu Steak and Fries - asked for medium rare and it came out slightly overcooked, but that preference aside, seasoned well and paired with a chimichurri that could have used more lemon. American double smash burger - my father had, said it was a good burger, nothing special or to rave about. Catch of the Day, Halibut served over couscous with beet purée. Surprisingly well done pairing with the flavor profile, aside from the halibut being a little bland the couscous was the star for me. Ended up finishing it on my mom's plate. Truffle lobster crab mac - good, but also nothing special about it that would make me reorder it. Felt like the lobster and crab meat drowned a little in the mac making it almost forgettable. But if you like just mac and cheese it's a good option. Burrata - remembered liking it, but nothing that really stood out. Lamb lolis - 9/10 definitely would order again, even as a main for myself as someone who doesn't eat large portions. Loved the side of pita and tzatziki, will always be a hit for me. Lambs were season very well, but again, a little overcooked. Oysters - my first time ever having oysters and I was pleasantly surprised. Although I feel like the sauces really make or break it, would reorder. Nothing mind blowing, but it is good food regardless and nothing was bad. The overall experience was enjoyable and can't talk bad about this place. The only thing stopping me from giving this more stars is the pricing. For what you're paying I feel like the food should better to make me wanna spend a lot. I can see how people would come here for a more luxury dining experience but the bar isn't high in this area either. Still, not a bad choice for a restaurant in Melbourne. I would come back to try their other menu items and drinks. read more

Absolutely! It was a great price for lunchtime here during the week. Yes they are open Monday and Tuesday. Make sure you change that! They have draft beers on tap. They have a full bar and a beautiful patio to sit across from the ocean that you can walk to afterwards. The prices were very moderate at least during lunchtime they averaged about $20-$25 and the burger was fabulous. The people were really happy to be here. The service was spectacular. I can't say thanks to Ariel more. You make great recommendations, including the burger, the fillet bites and the ganache cake. See you again soon and I can't wait for you to Server again. Thank you, thank you thank you for the experience an amazing day we really needed it. read more

The special was the Australian wagyu strip steak with crispy potatoes pavé, broccolini and cauliflower purée. It was out of this world!! If you're a fan of seafood, the shrimp scampi here is a must-try! The dish features perfectly cooked shrimp that burst with flavor, complemented by a subtle kick of spice--just enough to keep things interesting without overwhelming your taste buds. The pasta is served al dente, achieving that ideal texture that pairs beautifully with the sauce. Every ingredient tastes fresh, and you can tell that care has gone into balancing the flavors. Plus, the service is exceptional, adding to the overall enjoyment. read more

We were not able to try the food. The restaurant looked nice. As far as service we got as far as the host. The host was very young she was trying to accommodate us .(2 adults and 1 toddler) We got to the restaurant 5pm and there were an abundant of empty tables. But they were reserved for the reservations they had. Later that night. So from my understanding and what she basically said,the table were going to seat empty for 2-3 hour. read more

Went for lunch on a beautiful day overlooking the water sat outside on patio. Great view!! Colin our waiter was so knowledgeable about the terrific drink menu and helped me choose the cucumber breeze. It was so refreshing. My husband and i split the Mediterranean trio appetizer and thought all three dips were fresh and delicious. Then we split the fish tacos which were made of halibut. Very flavorful and fresh, but a little pricey. Too full for dessert. Will definitely return to this cute beach restaurant with a great raw bar, menu , staff and view right at the beach. read more

It was our first time there the other day!!! Beautiful restaurant, awsome view of the beach , food is amazing, service was awesome! Thank you Bryant! We will be back! read more

My husband and I just happened to come across this restaurant. So glad we did first of all it was St Patrick's Day and did not have a reservation. The two girls at reception were so nice and got us a table immediately. Our server Ariel could not have been nicer . Our food was delicious and timely. It was lively and the music was great. If we lived here this would be our go to spot. read more

We usually give a place a second chance if something is off, but I have no desire to go back. The food was ok, but not good enough to overcome the very unaccommodating and rude hostess staff. They almost make you feel like a burden, even with a reservation. It feels like they want to seem busier than they are. The problem is that people have eyes. Please don't tell your patrons you are too busy to meet their needs when the restaurant is half empty, and your food isn't good enough to outweigh the negative vibe from your staff. Too bad, we live close and wanted the Boardwalk to be a new place in our rotation. read more

I've tried them twice now, both times food and service was very good. Be prepared to spend. $$$$ ! Large outdoor seating, a little cramped inside, but they did a great job. One would never know it was a Wendy's love the view of the beach. I hear they added a happy hour, but there's nothing on their online menu about it. I'd like to see that. read more

The ambiance was lovely, with beautiful ocean views visible even from the bar. The décor and seating were very appealing, and the food was enjoyable -- good not great. While the food was good, it did not stand out as exceptional. More importantly, the service left us feeling unwelcome. Our friends were seated at the bar when we arrived, and we asked to move to a table for dinner. The manager (or someone acting as such, though he wore no name tag) insisted our friends finish their appetizer at the bar because it was ordered during happy hour. Even though they had also ordered additional items, we were required to wait. This was particularly disappointing given that nearly all the tables were empty -- it was 4:40 on a Wednesday. The experience left a bitter impression, and regrettably, I do not see myself or my friends returning. read more

New England clam chowder! Best ever! Cheesecake and grapefruit crème brûlée (very subtle) were heavenly. Our server Christine was pleasant, attentive, and knowledgeable. We immediately booked dinner reservations for 2 days later. The ambiance and decor were pleasing and creative mirroring the food we were served. read more

We were really looking forward to our dinner and had heard great things. We made reservations several days in advance for indoor seating. We arrived on time and were given a very small high top in the bar area. We asked for a table and were told the open tables were reserved . When we mentioned we also had reservations they told us the small high tops was all they had. There were four two tops open and one four top dining table. When we told the manager we were leaving because it was such a small table---- he shrugged his shoulders. Wow.. just wow. We were extremely disappointed .... We eat out regularly and were looking forward to adding Boardwalk grill Into our rotation. We will not be back... read more

I've had wonderful experiences here. The drinks that they infuse are genuinely fresh and artisanal - real fruit and herb Infusions- no fake syrups. They don't use seed oils to fry!!! I had some wonton chips as part of the tuna appetizer and commented on how fresh it all tasted without the heavy oil flavor - when I commented on it the server told me that they' fry in tallow!! Major plus. I can't afford for this place to fail - they do everything that I like and otherwise can't find around here! read more

We really wanted to try Boardwalk after being told by others that the food was good. The food wasn't bad, but wasn't amazing either for the price they were charging. Also they were out of lobster at 5pm... The server was fine, but the front hosts couldn't care less about you. The restaurant was maybe 1/3 to 1/2 full and we had a reservation for three. I'm sure they expected a busy night being the Saturday before Mother's Day, but why not respect the guest that has made a reservation and shown up for it. They walked us by three or four empty 2 top very small bar tables and tried to put us at one of the 2 tops in the corner. There were 3 people in our party. We were told we should be able to pull another bar chair over. Are you joking? We're out to have a nice Mother's Day meal and you want to put three people at a small bar table squeezed into the corner? I could almost understand if we did not have reservations but we did. Anyway, we asked if they had anything else and were told no and that they were going to be very busy. We walked back up front and asked again. They really didn't seem interested in us at all. We had decided we would probably just go somewhere else, then they asked if we would sit outside. Sure, we live in Florida, why wouldn't you ask us this before saying there were no other tables available? We were seated and were told they would just have to change somebody else's reservation. Yea right. It's not the customer's problem if you are overbooked or didn't think a party of three would like to sit at a table built for 2. The server and meal were fine after that. We did feel taken care of from that point on. We finished eating, the restaurant never filled up, the other tables near us remained empty our entire meal. We really enjoy trying different restaurants, but if you don't care about your clients why should they care about you and come back. I hope anyone else that tries Boardwalk Bar and Grill has a better experience than us. read more

South Beach Miami prices facing parking lot. We enjoy it but they still have some kinks to work out. Beachgoers use their parking lot, thus we couldn't find a spot for awhile. (Yes we witnessed people taking their beach stuff to the beach after using their parking lot). We have also witnessed beach people using their restrooms (bare feet) so we had to wait since there is only one stall. They said reservations only & directed us to the bar (despite having lots of empty tables) at 4:15 in the afternoon. We are locals and enjoy it, but it is pricy. Food is decent but smaller portions. Cocktails are good but could be better. Also, card only. No cash accepted. read more
