A true hidden gem with beautiful waterfront dining on the Indian river. The menu had so many amazing options I had at least 3 mains I was eyeing. The restaurant presented a wonderful assortment of specials to choose from. Our men had the pork chops and my friend had the grouper and I had the Ropa and grits. It was a cold night so I ordered the cauliflower soup, which was delicious and had just the right amount of cheesiness to it. Our waiter said it was about a 6/10 on creamy scale and he was right. The cornbread crab cakes were yummy and the corn bread and cream cheese that was given to us when we were seated was a nice touch. Our waiter Nathaniel was super friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anybody who wants delicious food. We all devoured everything off our plates.

This is our second visit, the first visit was appetizers and drinks , everyone enjoyed their food and service was good , because of this initial visit we decided to try them for dinner .

Let’s start with the aesthetics of the restaurant ; it is done really well. However , I caution you , this is not a place where you will get a lot of personal space , so if your claustrophobic , definitely eat outside because inside, people at the next table will be extremely close .

Service the first visit was very good , service the second visit was awful. We were never offered the specials, our drinks were never refilled. We ordered a salad which never even came out until the main course was there. In general she wasn’t giving us anywhere near the service as the waiter next to us. The worst part was , our food came out cold, In my opinion , if you are paying 64$ for a plate - everything on the plate should be hot. She took the food back and came back about 3-4 minutes later with the same food that had obviously been heated up in the microwave- which prob would have been fine -HOWEVER because of this , the lobster was now extremely overcooked.
The steak was good and so were the roasted vegetables. The couple next to us - also really enjoyed their steak (they also did not have a problem getting warm food) . Overall I would say this place is a 3/5. I personally would not return- as there are better high end places that are consistent and not hit or miss for service. The price point is a little to high for inconsistent service / food.

Ours plans fell thru today so my son modified them and chose a tucked away restaurant we've never been before: the Brevardian Riverfront. The food was fantastic! The ambiance was very nice. The drinks were great! The servers were awesome! We had a really good mother/son date. Thanks Brevardian. We will be back!

We came for lunch today, an early anniversary date . Just wow, the food firstly so good. We had a Cuban sandwich, the soup of the day- Beef Stew and the Sliders ( wagyu beef and crab cake) and a side of the house mac and cheese. Everything was so tasty and each bite was better than the last. Service and ambiance are stellar. Thanks so much for making our anniversary special.

Tonight, my girlfriend and I decided to have an impromptu date night and ended up at The Brevardian, and what a delightful surprise it was! Nestled along the river, we were seated outside with views that set the perfect atmosphere for a cozy evening. The restaurant was decorated for Christmas, adding to the festive spirit.

From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The hostess greeted us warmly, and our waiter, along with the food runners, was attentive and enthusiastic, ensuring everything was on point. They had some fantastic specials and made excellent recommendations that truly showcased their knowledge of the menu.

Now, let’s talk about the drinks! As a Harry Potter fan, I couldn't resist trying the butter beer, and it was absolutely fantastic. I can confidently say it’s a drink I wish I could replicate for my Christmas dinner party! The flavors were rich and comforting, making it a perfect companion for our meal.

For starters, we opted for the empanadas, which were a creative twist on a Cuban sandwich. Served with a tangy mustard sauce and topped with pickled red onions, these were a hit. For my main course, I chose the pan-seared grouper, which was seasoned to perfection. The fish was flaky and flavorful, making it one of the best dishes I've had in a while. My girlfriend went for the Wagyu burger, paired with a side salad dressed in house ranch, which she rated highly.

To finish off our meal, we couldn’t resist the peppermint brownie, and let me tell you, it was a decadent treat that perfectly captured the essence of the season.

As avid explorers of local restaurants, we often find ourselves disappointed, but The Brevardian exceeded our expectations in every way. We left feeling satisfied and excited to return. We’re already looking forward to trying more items on the menu during our next visit. Highly recommend!

A 6⭐️ experience!!! Hands down best restaurant in brevard county, the value is insane and the food is INCREDIBLE. There was a live singer and BOGO cocktails. The vibe was really romantic. we are home cooks and part time foodies, and often times when we eat out, it disappoints us because we can cook better, or we resort to driving an hour to Orlando for good food. But The Brevardian Riverfront is such a wonderful culinary experience that we can honestly say is the best we’ve had in Florida. We’re so happy we won’t need to drive all the way to Orlando for a high quality restaurant because we have something even better here! We ordered the pork chop and salmon, and everything on the plate goes so well together and is so innovative. Not only is the flavor outstanding, the salmon and pork chop are both cooked to PERFECTION—sooooo tender. The homemade hot sauce is incredible too, we tried to inquire if we can buy a bottle but was told to check back in a month or two. We are already telling all of our friends to come here and can’t wait to come back to try every dish!

Beautiful waterfront restaurant and bar overlooking the river. We visited for Sunday brunch and sat out on the deck. My husband ordered the burger topped with a crab cake, and I had a breakfast skillet (modified to suit gluten-free requirements). Both were so delicious, we washed them down with some cocktails. The service was exceptional, and we're excited to return and try out their dinner menu. Great local spot!
