North By South Bistro

Great little place. We are visiting for a couple of days and always look for small local places. The service was amazing. We had soups first, which were good, but not great. My husband had the grilled shrimp with herbed potatoes and was very impressed. I had the seafood lasagna. I had asked which was the favorite between that and the seafood mac n cheese and our server recommended the lasagna. It was amazing! So rich, I could only eat half, but Wow! Will definitely come back when we are in the area.

Ate here last weekend with my family. The server was not only knowledgeable but quite friendly and respectful, his enthusiasm of the food and chef was great. As for the food, I felt expectations were set high and for once, they were exceeded as everything came out fresh and delicious. And as stated by other patrons, the Chef/Owner came to our table to greet us and see how our meal was going. Can’t wait to go back.

Excellent food! The BEST shrimp and grits around. Our server, Mac knew the menu very well and was able to answer our questions with ease. His recommendations were spot on!
Our party also had the shrimp scampi and the fried green tomato BLT, simply amazing! The scampi was just the right blend of garlic and lemon butter to compliment the shrimp. The lobster bisque has been replaced by crab chowder which is not too thick and allows you to actually taste the crab.
Will return and highly recommend.

This was the best food we had all week. We liked it so much we ended up going back the next night and ordered the same exact dinners. We got the green fried tomatoes which was topped with 2 grilled shrimp and remoulade sauce. They were crispy and the sauce was excellent.
My wife had the onion crusted chicken dinner which she loved, the chicken was very tender and the chipotle sauce was flavorful. It came with au graten potatoes that were cheesy and tasty. The cooked carrots the first night were awesome and the slaw the second night was great as well.
I had the fried seafood platter and the batter they use is the best batter I've had on fish and shrimp. Very crisp and not at all greasy. The oysters were large and had a nice cornmeal batter which was also very good. I also had the cooled carrots and slaw. I hate mushy vegetables so really loved the cook on their carrots and au graten potatoes which had a perfect amount of firmness.
The hostess was very nice and attentive and the chef came out to great us and to make sure we were happy with the food.
It's our new favorite restaurant in the Cocoa Beach area now.

Absolutely outstanding!! Words cannot describe how amazing the food was. After reading such fantastic reviews, deciding what to order was definitely difficult. I felt as if I were back in Maine with my lobster roll and Sea Dog Blueberry Ale. My lobster roll had more meat than any roll I have had here, and huge lumps of claw meat! The coconut conch soup is a must! I've never had anything like that. The bacon chicken risotto was delicious, the combination of the chicken and bacon crumbles on top of a creamy risotto, very tasty! The owners / chefs came out to our table to ask how our meal was and chat, that's huge! I cannot say enough great things about our dinner experience this evening and cannot wait to return!

They have great seafood selections and at a very decent price. Everyone there is really nice, the owner and waitresses are all great people. I particularly love it when Kelvin or Kevin not sure what his name is, but the food there is always good, but man when "Kevin" cooks my food I literally lick everything off the plate, including my fingers, lol and I am not ashamed. 🤤🤤🤤

The food and service is absolutely amazing. I’m from St Louis on vacation. We have already ate at this restaurant 2 times and plan to go 1 more time before we go back home. So far we have had the fried green tomatoes, the BLT, fried oysters, fried shrimp, fish, Caesar salad, crab soup, shrimp po boy and the crab roll. EVERYTHING IS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!

What great food! Loved this place, really nice atmosphere too. Had a big group and they handled us easily. Everyone was sharing cuz it was so good we had to share!
