I've heard about Meg O'Malley's for Years. Finally stopped for a special lunch. I eat seafood when I am near the beach but my wife had the Kilkenney Sandwich -- corned beef and cabbage, like a Reuben but cabbage not kraut. Most appropriate since part of her family is from Kilkenney, IR.
This is truly a popular local spot with quite a few beers on tap (naturally we had a Guinness) and very good food. Irish pub decor and friendly staff.
I did not see that on Friday I could have had steamed oysters for $4!!
Favorite Dish: Very savory corned beef with cabbage on rye with sauces.,
Great bread pudding with THREE wonderful sauces: dark caramel raisin sauce, creamy Irish whiskey sauce, Rasperry sauce (we don't usually indulge but it was a special occaision so it was sent to us at no cost).
The shrimp and crab cake was WONDERFUL -- you could easily taste the combined flavor of the seafood and I had mine ' blackened.' Tasty!

Another very popular seafood location. While they are a family place and get many families their entertainment (lounge act) is geared to the senior crowd.
Favorite Dish: I enjoyed the peel and eat shrimp Nice service.

Bunky's Raw Bar and Seafood Grille (formerly just Bunky's Raw Bar). Great People and good food.
Since the late 1980s and early 1990s this has been a staple in this area for oysters, shrimp, and other seafood (PLUS they had a round-the-world beer club).
On its third owner, it is doing well after a bit of a dry spell. Two servers are still there for over 20 years (go Ron and Barb), lots of locals eat here as do I when in town!
Back and Better!
Favorite Dish: Oysters and peel and eat shrimp. Fish dip and crackers is a "crave" item for me!! Wings are Delicious!

Me and my wife went to Skewers on this last Saturday. I orders lamp skewers and she ordered kafta kebob. This was probably the worst kebob I have ever had. We both ended up with getting sick. Something was wrong with the taste but I could not tell at first. I would stay away from red meat in Skewers if I were you. One of my friends told me that the garlic chicken is good but didn't try it yet.
Favorite Dish: None

I've categorized this restaurant as French because the majority of the staff is French, but their menu is a range of continental European fare, from French to Italian. A fixed menu with a modest price ($25) with a nice romantic atmosphere. My boyfriend and I found this restaurant completely by accident while on our way to our typical dive "meg O'Malleys"... seeing that it looked busy through the windows, we decided to try it out instead.
We were so glad we did. Open since 96, they are located in the heart of old downtown Melbourne right next to the railroad tracks. Lots of big yellow umbrella tables outside, cant be missed.
The food was excellent, I had the goat cheese salad for my starter, followed my veal scallopini and bananas foster for dessert. While my boyfriend had the escargot, chicken parmagian and creme brulet. They also serve an authentic Irish coffee with the coffee and cream seperated in a clear glass. No cheesy green food colored whipped cream here folks!
Favorite Dish: The escargot was devine!
MASSIVE wine list.

The food is great here! They give you chips & salsa as soon as you sit down and they make yummy house margarita's. It's kid-friendly and the family owned and run.
Favorite Dish: I usually get the beef and cheese rellenos with "pot beans" instead of refried beans. If I'm trying to eat healthier, I get the chicken fajitas. It's all good though.

Popular family restaurant and sports bar so may be a little noisy but they have very large, comfy booths and nice wait staff. Although service is not always great.
They have great micro brew's. Indian River Red is one of my favorites. My companion almost always gets the Wickham Wheat. I recommend ordering the sampler home brews to help you decide which one is for you.
Favorite Dish: I've been a regular customer of this place for about a year and have had many favorite's. My latest favorite is the French Dip, thinly sliced smoked beef and melted swiss cheese on a hoagie roll with Au Jus. I often go back to their award winning Pulled Pork BBQ plate or the St. Louis Style Ribs. My favorite side dish is the Fried Sweet Potatoes, which can be ordered "plain", without the cinnamon sugar.
They also offer Fried Pickle Chips as an appetizer, served with creamy horseradish dipping sauce. You've gotta try it!

This Italian restaurant may be overlooked because of it's location in the plaza and the "whole in the wall" appearance. Some of the "whole in the wall" places serve the best food! This restaurant is owned by Italians and some of the waitresses are from Italy. They are very pleasant to me and I love the food. Try the tiramisu after dinner!
Favorite Dish: Again...why do I have to be a carbaholic?? Actually, I could eat anything on the menu. There is so much to enjoy! Fettuccini Alfredo is a definite favorite!

I love this restaurant! The atmosphere is very pleasant, the food is wonderful and the staff is very friendly. I highly recommend it to anybody who enjoys Indian food!
Favorite Dish: Now, for me, the hotter it is, the better!!! I love anything spicy, lay it on me! I love the Chicken Vindaloo. I also enjoy it with some Indian pan, which is like a frybread to me.
