Port Canaveral Restaurants: Rusty's Seafood and Oyster Bar

How often do you go to a restaurant? We really don't set a day for it. We go when we feel like it. Here in the space coast, fine dining locations are plenty to choose from. If you are looking for that great ambiance, amazing view by the beach, pleasant service, affordable price and delicious gourmet food, there are numerous places to check out in Port Canaveral and Cocoa Beach area. For now, let's check out:

Rusty's Seafood and Oyster's Bar
628 Glen Cheek Dr, Cape Canaveral, FL 32920
Phone:(321) 783-2033 

When I pick a side order, I go for rice. In Rusty's, they have what they called Seasoned Rice. This is tasty and flavorful and it's only $1.99 if ordered separately. With my chosen meal, the seasoned rice comes with it.

The onion rings is $4.99 per order but, for my meal, it's free as well. This is delicious and for every bite of crunchiness, my appetite satisfaction has been fully nourished. How's that for my simple craving? LOL.

Here is the not-so-fun part of my dining experience. On this particular visit, my steak is well-done. When it comes to meat, I like it "well-done" so; this steak in the picture is burnt hehehe. When my server came back and asked me how's my steak, I smiled and I said, it's burnt and it's tough. He said sorry and never replaced it. I did not complain anyway. Steak is one of my favorites in Rusty's and all the time, it's great. On this day, it didn't pass my "taste-bud's-test-taste". It doesn't mean that I don't like Rusty's anymore. I still recommend that you should try Rusty's because this restaurant is my favorite.

My husband loves mussels so he ordered mussels with classic garlic wine sauce. Oh he loves seafood. He loves raw oysters too. I can't eat raw hehehe.

Look at the ambiance where we were seated as we dine. They have an air-conditioned room but, we prefer to listen to the live music outdoor. Besides, it was a gorgeous day and we were waiting for the Disney cruise which will be passing by the restaurant at that time.

Here, take a look at the photo I took on the side. At Rusty's Seafood and Oyster Bar, you will not only enjoy a good meal but, a relaxing view as well. Please visit the Space Coast and check out Port Canaveral Area. Thanks for stopping by.

Chinese Buffet in Merritt Island

Last Friday, I wanted to eat seafood's so; I treat my husband to New Century Buffet in Merritt Island for Dinner. This Chinese Restaurant is the best place to go if we are craving for different kinds of seafood. They have large size shrimps, clams, fish, crabs and more ... cooked fried, butter field, coconut shrimp, steamed, grilled, and so much more. They also have raw oysters aside from salads, desserts, pizzas, rolls, soups, sushi, and many more.

We came here three times already and it's always at dinner time. Their food is tasty, the place is clean and their employees are friendly. When they have seafood feast, we paid $27 and when they have no crabs, we only paid $22. I am not sure how much is the rate of their dinner. Next time, I will take more photos and will take a snap shot of their rates for brunch and dinner.

Here is the address:

New Century Buffet

735 N Courtenay Pkwy, Merritt Island, FL ‎

I love their shrimps and crabs. Their desserts are not that many.

This is what it looks like, the New Century Buffet in Merritt Island. Check it out! I never tried their lunch yet, maybe we will go there one of these days.
