1st time leaving a Unilocal review, I felt I just had to. This place is really cool with great food and a great selection of draft beer. I had«John’s a jerk chicken», it was amazing, just the right amount of heat. My wife had Pablo Diablo and it was really good. The crab cakes were amazing and the owner said her husband/chef was from the Chesapeake bay area, I could tell, I thought I was there. What really impressed me about this place was the waitress was very friendly and worked really hard to make sure we had what we needed. She was Able to do that because the owner was helping her without getting in her way, that’s how you run a small business!

I had a fantastic bowl with fish, rice, beans and a really good sauce with veggies and a little fruit. Fantastic mix of spice and sweet. Decent beer list too!

So to be fair this place really deserves 5 stars because the food is good and the service is as well but the parking really sucks. Good food, well prepared and served promptly. It is a nice area, visually very pleasing as well. It was kind of a kick for me because it reminded me of many of the dives I frequented back in my misspent youth. The waitress was funny and attentive and helpful with suggestions. It is not a huge menu but the food I had as well as my friends was all delicious. The foot long dog varies daily and the day we went it was covered in Cuban cooked pork and sauteed onions. One of my friends had it and pronounced it the best dog he had ever eaten. The guys sitting at the bar all looked like they had been occupying the same seats since the day the place opened but they were truly a mellow friendly bunch. No bad vibe from anyone about anything. One old boy was sitting on the front deck working up the steam to make it the rest of the way home and he was as funny as hell. This is not the white linen table cloth, high cuisine sort of joint but the food is delicious and prepared on the premises from scratch. So kick back in your flip flops and enjoy.

Wow what a pleasant surprise this hidden gem is. The shrimp roll with a side of potato salad was fantastic. All made from scratch and whole shrimp in the salad. So good. A little off the beaten path but so worth the block trek. Just eat here. It’s super clean and everyone is friendly.

I had the Pollo Diablo, my girlfriend had the Shrimp Costa Rica Bowl, and we split the brie app and all three were delicious. Would definitely return, the view is nice and the staff is very friendly!

My mom was in town so we walked the streets of downtown Melbourne and stopped here for lunch. We had the fish dip for an appetizer and I had the Mahi. It was all really good. Good sized normal portions a person should at a good price. Very friendly service, and atmosphere. Will come back!

nice location, great service, and very good food at fair prices…, may give impression of a older bar, which it is, but worth the visit… why didnt it get 5 stars from me?, bathroom was pretty rough…

On Sundays my boyfriend and I like to be outdoors drinking and enjoying nice food! It’s also one of our cheat days… A week or so ago we were driving under the bridge near downtown melbourne and saw this restaurant which interested us. So yesterday we decided to try it. When we arrived we were greeted nicely and learned that every Sunday they have happy hour!!! The view on the patio is facing towards the river and is amazing. There’s a nice breeze on the patio and there is also music playing. My boyfriend and I started off with two champagne based madras for only 5 dollars each! They also have craft beers for 4 dollars or less! Food– first we started off with their homemade pretzels and cheese, and their Brie cheese special. FREAKINGAMAZING. Like explosion in your mouth. And the crostinis that come with the Brie are made in house with Cuban bread. The best crostinis I’ve ever had. Although we were full after these two appetizers I wanted to continue trying food because everything else was so good. So we decided to order the ¼ lb peel and eat shrimp. Came tossed in old bay and came with sides of cocktail sauce and garlic butter sauce. The shrimp were a perfect size. Service– OUTSTANDING. The owners are amazing and put their own ideas into the culinary experience which is amazing. Service was amazing and quick. All in all, there are very few places that I can say are all around phenomenal and this place is definitely one of them. Extremely delicious food, great service, great drinks, more than reasonable prices, and a beautiful view. Must come by and check this place out. You will not be disappointed!!!

The Hideaway is a culinary mecca! We stopped in on a Tuesday night and had the Costa Rica bowl with pork and the house que sauce. This entrée was 10x better than Chipotle or others. Key lime and sour cream mix lightly drizzled couldn’t have been better. Inexpensive quality draft/craft beer. Check this place out if you like unique fare and outstanding pork dishes. I’ll be back.

Not bad at all! We stopped for lunch and had two excellent tacos? The menu looked interesting and it is well worth another try. The family running the place was very cordial!

We were just passing through and decided to stop after reading other reviews. The boys enjoyed the Carolina dog which was an all beef foot long hotdog topped with BBQ. They loved it. The fries were hot but not fresh but frozen prepackaged. Another guest enjoyed the Coastal shrimp bowl. They loved it. I had the blackened fish tacos. Delish! Stop in and enjoy this place. It is worth the time and money.

Fantastic Mahi Fish Bowl … Not a lot of places cook Mahi well. Most places tends to be dry or over-cooked. This place did it perfectly!!! Worthy of being a regular spot for me.
