10Best Says

Fat Kahunas Beachside Grille is best known for its coconut shrimp – so legendary, in fact, that it has earned the restaurant top dining rankings on the Space Coast. The trick to this jumbo shrimp: agave-soaked coconut and a "secret" tempura batter. This beachside, Hawaiian-influenced restaurant will please your taste buds with seafood, steak, pulled pork and more, served with made-from-scratch, original sauces. The gourmet burgers and soft tacos are also a great bet. Feeling wild? Try the shark burger. Wash your meal down with sangria, wine, beer or sweet tea.
