    After several visits to Thirsty Bones my opinion has not changed. Nice little pub with friendly staff and free pool.

    St. Patrick's Day brought us in for the holiday menu, and while things moved a little slower than…read moreexpected, the overall experience was still a good one. The place clearly has a strong neighborhood vibe. Even on a holiday, it felt like a regular hangout spot where many of the patrons seemed to know each other and the bartenders. That kind of atmosphere always adds a layer of warmth you can't manufacture. Service-wise, our waitress was very friendly and attentive when she was at the table. Food delivery did take longer than expected considering the restaurant didn't appear overly busy, but to be fair, it was a specialized St. Patrick's Day menu which likely slowed the kitchen down. Now to the food. My co-diner ordered the corned beef Reuben, served on grilled rye with a generous pile of crinkle fries. The sandwich was stacked with tender corned beef and had that classic deli-style balance of meat and sauerkraut. He described it simply as "very good," which from him is a strong endorsement. I ordered the traditional Irish stew with potatoes and cabbage, which came plated with a hearty portion of mashed potatoes. The stew itself had a few nice chunks of beef and vegetables in a rich brown gravy that definitely leaned into bold seasoning. The only note is that the pepper level was quite heavy across the stew, mashed potatoes, and cabbage. If you're someone who enjoys a strong pepper-forward flavor profile, this will absolutely be right up your alley. Portions were generous and the meal definitely delivered that comfort-food, stick-to-your-ribs Irish pub feeling. Overall, a positive experience with friendly service, a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere, and hearty holiday fare. I'd happily come back again -- especially to explore more of the regular menu outside the St. Patrick's Day rush.

I signaled the bartender to let her know there was no fish, only batter, when suddenly approached by someone from the kitchen. I told him there were two small pieces of fish amongst this pile of batter and I was not satisfied with the meal. He has said, making excuses that he had cooked it himself and that it was fine. He took my plate of batter and walked off with an attitude. Recommend the fish and chips. The cook was rude and disrespectful. Definitely not at all what expected. I will never be back. Came for Easter dinner, left Hungary and Angry.

Clean, nice ambiance, prices were very fair too. Please ignore my taco pic as I had to hurry and it was swinging! My personal favorite was the Chicharron taco and it was fried to perfection! It was crispy without losing flavor or juiciness. Just the right amount of spice too. The tinga taco also has as very tasty and the cheese was a bonus. The sangria was flavorful and refreshing; I personally prefer sangria Blanca but this was tasty and not heavy. Just a hint of cinnamon to liven it up. I will try a sit down meal with them and soon! I'm a mole connoisseur so I'll get back to you!

    Ive seen this place a few times driving and walking around Cocoa Village. We decided to finally…read moregive it a try for lunch and see what they were about. We started with agua frescas. Jamaica and fresca were delicious and genuinely fresh, a must with this kind of food. Though we were not here for a full dinner, we were told the queso fundido was a must try and it was! They sat a charded jalapeno dead center and mixing it all together took it to the next level. The tacos were underwhelming though. I had steak, chicken tinga and chicharron, the chicken tinga blew them away flavor wise. I did like the attention to detail and bite size of the chicharron. The tortilla itself was offputting texture wise. You couldn't fold it without ripping. We are willing to try again, we will see in the future!

We felt so well taken care of from the moment we arrived, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I also really loved that the restaurant is split into two spaces. The other side is a beautiful wine-tasting area with gorgeous décor and a really inviting atmosphere. It's such a nice touch and gives the place a unique feel. And the pork chops? Hands-down the best in Melbourne! Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We'll definitely be back -- this is one of those places you're excited to share with friends!

At our server's suggestion, we had the Bread service with the "cheese whose name I can't remember", and it was so good! A soft, almost Brie cheese, if that helps. I tried to write its name down, but it was too long and too French. My daughter had the Carpaccio, and Rebellion did it right ( unlike the other place where we had it this week- whose name will not be disclosed). It was a little bit of salad and a lot of carpaccio! Yum. The perfect ratio. My wife's Red snapper special was amazing, and the menu staple of Charred pork chop I ordered just melted in my mouth. Such good flavors! Long live the Rebellion!

Just walk through for a memorable event. "Les" was working the bar, and was friendly and very efficient. He took my order and in no time flat I was enjoying an excellent coffee called the "Dalgona". This is A Korean whipped coffee drink made by whipping together double shots of espresso and sweet cream and adding to the top of vanilla sweetened milk. It was delicious!! Coffee options include Espresso & Lattes, Specialty Lattes, Craft Brewed Coffee - including French Press, Pour Overs, and Frappes. There are several Tea options as well including matcha, green, chai, Yerba Mate, and Black (to name a few). This is a really cool place with exceptional drinks!
