I can't say enough.This place was a standout.They do not take reservations.The food was outstanding.My husband and I can't wait to come back to eat there .I had a combo plate so I could taste more than one item from the main dishes.My husband had the sauerbraten which is his go to German dish .You can tell the locals love the place. Hope to return soon .We had a nice view of the water which was very nice as the sun went down .
Homey interior. Get there early for a window table with view of lagoon. Food always very good. I always get the wurst plate. Good coffee. Wish they would offer pint sized beer. Largest draft 13.5 oz. Service good. An Appetizer, couple beers and 2 entrees will cost about $100 with tip.
We love to go here for any special occasion. Food is delicious, service is always amazing and the restaurant is great for romantic dinners or intimate gatherings. We've tried lots of the dishes but my personal favorite is the Seafood schnitzel. The sugar snap peas as a veggie are crisp And flavorful. The smoked trout is a nice take on a fish based appetizer. We never leave without sharing a piece of the Black Forest cake. Somehow it's decadent and light at the same time.
Third time's the charm!!! First two tries to eat here didn't go as planned. First time, found them closed for vacation. Second time, issue with the hood in the kitchen. Super glad I made the third try. Service was prompt and friendly. Kaylee was very helpful. After 30 years in the high end catering business, we appreciate the attention to the little details. Breads came nice and hot with a fantastic compound herb butter soft enough to spread. We both agreed the house salad was one of the best we've ever had with a great combination of flavors and textures. The bride had the schnitzel with bernaise, I had the combo Jager schnitzel, sauerbraten and bratwurst. Again, everything was delicious, well-thought and professionally plated. Veg of the day was snap peas served family style and also perfectly cooked. Not normally dessert people but Kaylee successfully twisted arms. The missus opted for the chocolate cake and I went with the apple strudel. If you like chocolate, that's the one for you. I'm not a huge chocolate fan but even I loved that one. Apple strudel was amazing, nice and warm with some crunch in the pastry. Last part is the ambiance. Interior is reminiscent of an old country club fine dining room with amazing sunset water views. Silverware was polished and a proper fold to the napkins. This will be our new go-to when in the area. Sorry about the photo. The strudel was calling my name. LOL
What a great discovery. I have been visiting Melbourne for decades and never experienced Cafe Coconut. Typically people search for waterfront dining and think ocean, but if you want to experience beautiful sunsets Cafe Coconut's location on the river is the place to be. Be aware you will wait for a table as they do not take reservations and the food is slow to come out, but it is all worth the wait. A house salad is served consisting of greens, kidney beans, cole slaw, and a pickled beet. It's a perfect start to your dinner. I went with the braised pork shank with sauerkraut. It was cooked perfectly and what first appeared as a gigantic portion quickly disappeared from my plate. even the sauekraut was outstanding. My wife had the pork cutlet again perfectly cooked and presented. Go for the potato pancakes for the win. They have German beer on tap to make the whole experience authentic. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. I can't wait until next year to return!
