Melbourne Kitchen - Melbourne (FL)

5 /5 Donald Deitz: Today was our first time visiting Melbourne Kitchen for breakfast. I must say it was absolutely amazing. From the minute we walked in the door we were greeted with friendly employees. The meal was outstanding! I had the the original eggs benedict which was the best i have ever had. The fresh squeezed orange juice was fantastic as well. Towards the end of our meal the owner / chef stopped by to see if there was anything that could be improved upon and gave us a little background about how they do things. We will definitely frequent this establishment because of the quality of the food was amazing and the love they put into it definitely shows. Highly recommended.

5 /5 Hawley Kenny: This is a newly opened restaurant to my knowledge, and although I no longer live in this area, I visit this area several times a year and heard about this wonderful new restaurant to check out from a friend of mine. Service was a very good. The server was very patient with us as we weren’t really sure what to order and we were also waiting for a fourth person to show up late of course lol but the food came out and it was all amazing. The coffee was fantastic as it is roasted and ground Fresh on site. I ordered the shrimp and grits and they did not disappoint. In fact they were definitely one of my top best shrimp, and grits. I’ve eaten anywhere. I’m not sure what kind of grits they used, but they certainly seemed very good. They didn’t seem like those instant type. There was a little spice to the sausage that was in it which I like some people might find it too spicy bit for me. It was perfect. My wife had one pancake and boy. She is glad. She only ordered one pancake because it was a pan “cake”! You’ll see what I mean in the picture she could only eat about a third of it. I ate the rest of it and man I’d go back there in a second just to order pancakes. It was so good. My other friend that was there ordered biscuits and gravy and I tried some of that and it was extremely good. I’m not even a fan of biscuits and gravy, but they were definitely good. She did comment that she felt that the biscuit itself was a little hard so that might’ve been an oversight on a restaurant I’m not sure my thought process was perhaps it was intentional because they put the gravy All over it and you know what happens with gravy and biscuits right they get soggy so that’s what I was thinking was maybe the reason behind it but who knows but still she really enjoyed her food. Looking forward to coming here again. PS: They have an indoor and outdoor seating area. We sat outdoor and enjoyed our meal along with about 12 other people that were out there the Melbourne firefighting department;thanks for your service by the way, and another couple. Enjoy the outdoor, but they’ve had a nice indoor seating area as well .

5 /5 Lynn Briggs: OH-MY-GOSH….. absolutely and undeniably phenomenal. I give this place all the stars in the sky! I had the honey gyuere melt with candied bacon, onion rings and the tomato bisque, my daughter had the French toast with sausage and for a little treat I had the Rocher Espresso Martini. The food was literally mind blowing, I did the happy dance with every single bite! I never knew gourmet grilled cheese could taste so good! My daughter (the pickiest eater in the world) ate EVERYTHING and had a full belly. To top it off the service was stellar, Lexi was our server and she went above and beyond to make my daughter happy and our dining experience an enjoyable one. If you are going with little ones, I definitely highly recommend sitting in her section. This chick is for sure mama who understands what it’s like to try to bring a toddler out to eat! This will for sure be our new go to mommy daughter night out spot!

5 /5 Marsha: We have opportunity to stop here for lunch and it was phenomenal. You need to come and visit.! Dogs are welcome and theyre even going to create a menu for them. The honey sourdough grilled cheese was excellent, and it comes with fries, which were also very good. My husband had the bacon apricot burger and he said it was one of the best burgers hed ever had. The owner stopped by and welcomed us, and it was really a pleasant experience.

5 /5 Rhonda Manyak: The Melbourne Kitchen has officially become our new favorite spot when visiting the area! We were in town over Thanksgiving with our son and wanted to step out of our own kitchen and try something new. This restaurant has been opened for less than 2 weeks, and our son suggested we give it a shot — he was absolutely right! From the moment you walk in, youre greeted by a beautiful display of homemade baked goods. The aroma of muffins, scones, oversized chocolate chip cookies, blueberry-topped cheesecakes, brownies, and other treats will stop you in your tracks. The atmosphere is clean, relaxed, and spacious. The entire staff is warm and welcoming, and you’re greeted the moment you walk through the door. We even noticed the owner—who is also the cook—visiting tables, making sure everyone was happy and sharing how hands-on he is in the kitchen. Our server, Abi, was fantastic and didn’t miss a beat. The menu offers a great variety, and everything we ordered was excellent. We tried the crispy fish sandwich (served on their amazing homemade coleslaw), waffles, chicken and waffles, and the shrimp and grits. The shrimp and grits were a standout—large, plentiful shrimp cooked perfectly! The food arrived quickly, and the presentation was thoughtful and appealing. Portions are generous, so you definitely won’t leave hungry—and you’ll likely take home leftovers. We also loved the “MK” seared onto the buns, a fun touch that gives the experience an upscale feel. If you enjoy fried green tomatoes, theirs are definitely worth ordering. We enjoyed chatting with the owner about new dishes they plan to add (including Bang-Bang Shrimp) and their pet-friendly outdoor dining. I wouldn’t be surprised if a dog menu appears one day! The outdoor area is spacious, nicely landscaped, fully shaded, and equipped with fans for warmer days and heaters for cooler weather. We also loved the large monitor statue welcoming guests along the walkway. If you’re looking for a great place to dine, I highly recommend The Melbourne Kitchen. We can’t wait to return and try the pancakes and, of course, the shrimp and grits! Just keep in mind—they’re a new restaurant, and with winter visitors returning, you might wait a little. But the food, atmosphere, and friendly staff make it absolutely worth it.
