Costa was the best! He was informative of everything on the menu. Plus, very accommodating of my gluten free allergy.
The food was also amazing! Some of the best seafood and desserts we’ve ever had!
Such a fun place with a great atmosphere and delicious food.
Their chowder was amazing- perfect in rainy days. The chips and fries are great and the burgers were perfect.
They also have a wonderful gluten free menu which we appreciated!

Yummy ice cream and super fun atmosphere. Good prices and fast lines with friendly service. I loved my cookie dough and my friend loved her gluten free chocolate chip cookie.
Amazing cafe with excellent coffee and even better wraps and quesadillas! My wife and our family have eaten here twice on vacation, and we will make it a point to come here every time we travel to Cocoa Beach. Staff is very nice, and they accommodate our gluten free preferences very well. 10/10!!
I would give it 0 stars if I could. We were in town for a cruise, staying in a hotel. Hotel had this restaurant listed in pizza places that delivered. We ordered delivery here because they had a gluten free option. Ordered online, estimate delivery was 1 hour. 1 hour after ordering, received a phone call saying they did not have gluten free pizza crusts, and if we would want to substitute. My wife and I were going to share the gluten free pizza, so we substituted 2 salads, the antipasto and a Caesar salad with grilled chicken. Approximately 45 mins after that (so 1 hr and 45 mins after ordering), we still had not received our ordered. I tried multiple times to call back, and the call finally went through. The employee on the line sounded like he had no idea about our order. I asked for a discount, and they offered 20% off, I should have just canceled the order. About 30 mins after that (8:08pm, almost 2 hrs and 30 mins after ordering), the delivery driver finally arrived. The food was like luke-warm, my kids ordered pasta and a personal pizza. There were no napkins or silverware (probably should be a pre-requisite when delivering to a hotel), and the Caesar salad that was substituted didn’t have the chicken. So, overall it was a terrible experience. After we received our order, I again tried calling the restaurant, after 7 attempts, someone finally answered. The employee apologized and asked for my phone number so a manager could call back. I declined, we are leaving for our cruise tomorrow, and we will never eat there again anyways.
The food was very fresh, the steak was super tender, and everything tasted great (very high quality!) My husband wanted me to make sure and mention that the burrito was very generous in size; “much bigger than Chipotle.” 😉
They had numerous gluten free options, and even offered dairy-free and vegan options. There were two lovely ladies who were very welcoming and accommodating. If we’re in the area again, we’ll be back!
I came here after a quick Google search for gluten friendly restaurants near cocoa Beach and oh my goodness I'm glad it took me here! If you're gluten free you know the buns are gross but a good burger will make up for it and these burgers were INCREDIBLE! So good, great atmosphere and our server was so sweet answering allergy questions for both me and my sister! Definitely a great option if you're gluten free !!
Wonderful service and delicious food. I chose Branos because I was looking for gluten free pizza. It did not dissapoint! We went about 25 minutes before closing. We did not feel rushed to order or eat our food. Our waiter, Peter, was very knowledgeable about the menu as well as places to visit in the area. We will definitely visit again!
large selection of food and also have gluten free options, which 3 of us require. Portions were large, good thing we got there early as it got pretty crowded.
food was as amazing as was the service and the view. They were very accommodating for our allergies and even have gluten-free buns for sandwich and burger options.
Surprisingly gourmet level cuisine and atmosphere for the price. The food is authentic, fresh and spiced perfectly. There’s menu items that are gluten free as well. A tremendous value and experience
The açaí bowls were yummy! Gluten free!!! The peanut butter was thick but tasted so delicious!
We did try one of the teas and it was like drinking ginger straight up. Did not care for that at all!!
Wow. These are the best ribs I’ve ever had! I didn’t even eat them with any sauce and it was incredible. The staff was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and careful with my gluten-allergy order. They had a wide selection of gluten-free options, and I was told they could make a lot of other dishes gluten-free with a few modifications. Will definitely be back!
This place is awesome. I’d travel around Florida for work and I stop by this area at least once a year. For the past few years my first stop is Poke fin. The food is awesome much better than any other pope place I’ve been to, and I’ve been to many. The couple that were sitting at the table next to me during lunch, I said the same thing. I have allergies and this place is always been super safe and they make it easy to order a gluten-free stuff right on the menu. I realize tonight it’s the same staff from the last time I was here working behind the counter. They are super friendly and very nice. The care about the food , their customers and everyone. I might even stop by tomorrow before I leave.
Our server “Tanner” was terrific. He had knowledge about the menu and described and recommended items.
We ordered the Papusa Con Curtido, Corn bread, Farmers Market Pasta and the Wild Blue Crab Feature. The Papusa was disappointing. It tasted and looked like hamburger versus steak. The crab feature was good but a bit dry. However the cornbread was sensational! Moist and flavorful topped with butter. We all loved the market pasta. Beautiful display, incredible taste, and surprisingly awesome local mushrooms. I was a bit disappointed there was no bread served with the pasta.
All three of us got dessert. Two of us enjoyed the pear cake which was moist, with pears in the center topped of with a delicate sweet crumble. It was served with a small dab of ( what looked like) creamy gelato. The portion was small in size but delicious. My companion ordered the gluten free chocolate cake. It was very dry and crumbled when touched with a fork. No one in my party enjoyed it.
All three of us were shocked when viewing our bill. The desserts alone were $45.00!
The service was remarkable. Our server never missed a beat. He had excellent knowledge of the menu and described it well. All of us were impressed with his “flawless “ serving skills.
The ambience was not that great. We sat on the patio in front of a noisy air conditioner. The atmosphere outside didn’t seem to complement the menu.
Also, I was surprised to see the relaxed uniforms the server and hostess wore. Their uniforms didn’t seem to pair with the menu at all! The menu was a bit pricey and portions were small however it had tasty , unique items.
I am sure I will go back again. My next visit I will make sure to question the dessert prices! Also, I will sit inside!
Sandbar always has a great beach bar atmosphere. We visited on a weekday, and the place was packed, but we were lucky enough to find a table. I need to order gluten free and loved that they have a specific menu. I ordered the chicken sandwich, and it was extremely bland! The lime and cilantro dressing for the side salad was delicious! Others ordered the wraps with chicken and mahi mahi and really enjoyed them. Service was great and the atmosphere was buzzing.
We had Christmas Eve dinner. The food was excellent and service was great. They were very accommodating at taking care of our friend's gluten food allergies. Thank you again
Awesome food,authentic Mexican taste,clean place and good service.Highly recommended for people with gluten allergies,their own corn tortillas are delicious
What a gem. Great sushi, friendly service, decent bar area, and an overall good time.
They also helped me find items that were gluten free.
And they have a killer snack food happy hour menu.
I liked it so much we ordered take out- the next day too!
Rayna was beyond amazing with 2 separate allergies in our party. She went above and beyond to make sure that she used fresh ice cream tubs from the back, clean scoopers & sanitized the counter before scooping out the ice cream. Not many take allergies seriously enough and Rayna went above our expectations!!!!

Extremely helpful staff! I was looking for a takeout place that could do gluten free for a celiac family member vacationing with us in Cocoa Beach. Although it was not 100% guarantee, the young lady that helped me over the phone went above and beyond in communicating what could be done to avoid cross contamination. When I placed the order, I then called to verify they received notes. The lady then calls me back to let me know one of the dishes would need substituting in order to make it gluten free. This little detail made a whole lot of difference in our concerns for gluten free. We appreciated it so much! Plus the sushi was AMAZING!
