Service is consistently great. And if you haven't tried the fried scallops, you need to instantly go back.

Food was great and service was excellent! We hadn't been there in a while, but we remembered our first experience as the food was great! We just kept thinking this place was on 14th and could not find it as we were not certain of the name. We definitely remember the ambiance as it was fun! LOL! We kept looking and finally found them and again the food was great and we will be returning! When my son comes up for his birthday we may have to visit again as the food and portions are great and the prices are RIGHT! Great food at reasonable prices which is very hard to find in Vero Beach these days! And, so far no strange fee's! Thanks as that is very much appreciated as we always tip well when the service is great and their service was excellent. read more

Very cool spot! Right in the heart of old Vero Beach, tons of fun decor! Service was instant and friendly! I had a fish sandwich, she had the Greek wrap w sweet potato tots. Fish sandwich was great! Nice big piece of flaky white fish, her wrap was yummy, and we split a piece of peanut butter ice cream pie that was out of this world! I'll be back! read more

I love Serendipity! My wife and I were running chores yesterday in Vero and decided to have lunch out. We were discussing where to go (Tai?) and then I remembered reading good reviews about Fishack. So off we go. First off, parking was a breeze. We found a spot right out front. There is also a pay lot across the street ($5.00) and the restaurant reimburses you if you spend more than $25. That's a great deal. The restaurant has a great feel. Beachy colors. Airy. And the chairs are sturdy for us big dudes. Lots of flat screens on the wall for us sports fans. My wife immediately liked the feel of the place. The waitresses were both very friendly. And real friendly; not that "fake friendly." They have a nice outdoor patio, but we chose to eat inside. They have a lunch menu with lower prices. I started with the New England Clam Chowder. Very good. Plenty of clams and potatoes. The best I've had in a few years. My wife had the Mediterranean Mahi and I had the Shrimp and Grits. She liked her fish dish. The veggies were perfectly cooked. The Shrimp and Grits was very good. Cheesy Grits with sautéed spinach and perfectly cooked spicy blackened shrimp. The waitress did tell us that you can get the shrimp simply grilled without the blackening spices if you don't like things too spicy. It was at my perfect spice level. They have an NAB (Stella), but I opted for Pink Lemonade. The desserts looked good and I was planning on dessert, but I was too full. We will definitely be back! A well-deserved 5 Star review and I think this place gets my very first Hamelin Star. Not as prestigious as a Michelin Star but I expect soon restaurants will be coveting a Hamelin. read more

1st time there. Cute, casual, neighborhood place, we enjoyed. Our server was nice, efficient and so helpful when asked abt her recommendations. I had the NE clam chowder, quite tasty and rich, also the app coconut shrimp, maybe a bit more coconut. Husb had the cod fish sandwich which he enjoyed, coleslaw yummy (I didn't get to taste) fries were good too, snagged a couple. Overall a very good experience. Oh I asked for Tabasco (I'm a Tabasco snob I just love it, a big no to others) they told me abt an in-house made hot sauce, what the heck I tried it...I bought some to bring home (I know, right) it's peppery, a touch of other things quite tasty, I think besides seafood would be great on chicken, ribs, probably anything. Will go back! read more

Seafood themed establishment with a great atmosphere & nice small outdoor backyard dinning area within the City limits; sat at the bar, family had chow'da, delish, (we're from NH) fam had haddock special, fish samich & peel & eat shrimp ALL of it, well prepared, fresh, not soggy/greasy, crisp & tasty. Beer's were great too, along with a great staff.. If near by, do yourself a favor, stop in! read more

Nice local joint in Vero Beach. We shared conch bites. Fish and chip lunches. Pretty good. read more

For me Fishack has the best Fish and Chips in town! Most other places have breaded fish and it always ends up being dry or too crumbly. Fishack fish in that beer batter makes for a crispy airy coating with a nice crunch, and the fish is always tasty and feels fresh. Always friendly staff and fast service. Plus their mango margaritas are delicious as well as the guava one they have. Definitely a must visit place for good food and laid back ambience. read more

Had a great lunch here today. NE Clam chowder, conch fritters, fried oysters and a lobster roll. We shared everything and enjoyed it all. So much so I forgot to take pictures. Relaxed atmosphere, full bar and great service. Worth a return visit. read more

I had a bad experience when I tried this place for the first time today. I got the blackened mahi tacos and hubby got the blackened mahi sandwich. It was inedible. The fish was really funky. It tasted off and had a slight gray tinge. I'm surprised by all the good reviews, because this was horrible. I sent my first taco back and thought the second was better, but after a couple of bites, I just couldn't eat any more. The taste of the fish seemed to overwhelm even the fries. My husband didn't eat his sandwich and the waitress didn't ask him if there was anything wrong with it. He just wanted to leave so we paid the check and left hungry. read more

We had a decent lunch with good service here. And we liked most of our meal with a few caveats. I had their conch chowder -- which was more full of pepper than spicy. The base was flavorful, but I couldn't taste any conch or any pieces of conch. Then I had their fried oyster appetizer. The oysters were wonderful. They tasted freshly shucked and were lightly floured and fried. My husband had their fish and chips. The fish was cod. I tasted his fish -- it was not very good; I did not care for the breading plus it tasted over fried, slightly burnt, and hard. The thin onion rings that he substituted (upgrade charge of $2.50) for the fries were good. We shared a slice of key lime pie for dessert. It was the right color and a pretty authentic version. I'd certainly return for their oysters or another of their baskets (maybe the shrimp?) and skip the chowder next time. read more

A lunch stop in a quaint part of town that is popular with the locals. I went with the fried fish (Cod), substituting the fries for their famous Angel Hair Onion. (You can order the Angel Hair Onion as a side for $2.50 - my "substitution" for the fries still netted a $2.50 upcharge.) The fried Cod strips was good, although the breading was a bit dark ( fry oil needs filtering?) The Angel Hair Onion rings were wonderful! Authentic Key Lime Pie for dessert was very good! Great friendly service by our server who was hustling for several tables and booths. read more

A nice find for me and my friend. Stumbled across this restaurant quite by accident. It seems as if it's a locals joint...looks old and worn--in a good way! The waitress Katie couldn't have been nicer--she steered us both to the shrimp/scallop combo basket. It was wonderful. Lightly breaded, tender and juicy seafood. The fries were really hot right out of the fryer. They have a pretty nice menu and food for the carnivores, too. I recommend it highly. read more

Another great find in Vero. It was a busy Saturday at Vero Beach the day before Easter. We wanted calamari for lunch and the places we attempted on the beach had long wAirs or were not pet friendly. We had to take my friends small poodle with us because she had been having seizures and could not be left alone. We located the Fishack thru Yelp and were so happy we found it! They had outdoor patio seating and Layla was welcomed. We were seated right away and our server was so sweet. Michelle ordered a Margarita which came in a very tall glass and a low price. She said it was wonderful. We got our calamari along with a very hight stack of angel hair onion rings. Both appetizers came with bam bam sauce which was delightful. The batter on the calamari and onions was so light and crispy. Fried Banana peppers were amongst the calamari and made a nice tart alternate taste in the dish. We wanted to try the lobster mac and cheese but didn't have any room left. I would definitely go back to this location and sample more of the wonderful menu. read more

This place has delicious food! The service was excellent even on a packed Friday during lent! They will reimburse you if you park across the street in the 5 dollar lot. We met the owner Mitch who was there expiditing food and helping! Fishermans basket was the best I ever had as far as fried oysters, scallops were huge, shrimp and fish. Fishermans stew was loaded with seafood. I am not sure about these people complaing about a 2.50 upcharge for onion rings it state it right on the menu! If you are upset about 2 dollars then go eat at McDonalds. Bloody mary was awesome, I cant say enough about the quality of the food. Awesome. Cool vibe and casual. read more

Fishack is a must! I can't wait to go back, not only is the food Fresh/Delicious but the restaurant is Adorable and the staff was Amazing! We ordered: · Conch Fritters: Fresh ground conch mixed into special batter & fried into a spicy fritter, comes with Boom Boom Sauce. *Great flavor and outside crunch · Blacken Mahi (Fish) Tacos: Filled with cabbage, tomato, cheese, cilantro & onion salsa, comes with seasoned fries. *Super Fresh · Shrimp and Grits: Cheesy grits, blackened shrimp, sautéed spinach, scallions. *Best Ever! · Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie: House-made graham cracker crust, peanut butter ice cream, peanut butter cups, chopped peanuts, whipped cream drizzled with chocolate and cameral syrup. *So Good! Everything ordered was absolutely Fresh and Delicious but the "Shrimp and Grits' were some of the Absolute Best I have ever had and I grew up in Louisiana. So GEAUX get yall some :D Not only is the serving size large enough to share, but the grits have an amazing cheesy flavor while the shrimps are huge and blackened just right, simply tasty tasty tasty! I am not sure how I will avoid ordering this again next time... hehe. If you are a dessert person, you better try out the Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie! It had the perfect peanut butter flavor, which went great with the Chocolate and Cameral syrup drizzle and home-made graham cracker crust. The best part was it's an Ice Cream pie! So Yummy! Needless to say the Conch fritters and Mahi Fish tacos were just as fresh and tasty, which leads me to believe everything listed on their menu will leave you full and smiling... while also having you thinking about your next visit. :) I also have to mention, the staff was amazing from the hostess, waiter, to the table busser. I loved how you are greeted by a smiling hostess, followed by a knowledgeable, enthusiastic, positive waiter. My hat also goes off to the busser, who constantly checks to see if they can clear any plates from the table allowing you to enjoy your meal and personal space. This restaurant really caters to their patrons, which makes for a memorable experience. So Thank you team, we will Definitely be back! If you live in Vero Beach and haven't eaten here you better make plans tonight, and if you don't live in Vero Beach but plan to visit or travel through, you better make plans as well! I promise you won't be disappointed, and I hope to see you there next time bc I will be back :D read more

Scrumptious scallops had us off to a great start. Perfectly seared, tender with a Citrus Beurre Blanc and crunchy bacon pieces! ( These alone are enough to warrant a visit quickly!) We always opt for the specials and wild caught seafood. We were not disappointed with the Haddock topped with a lump crab cake and that same amazing Citrus Beurre Blanc. The Caesar was crispy with homemade dressing. Those angel onion rings were really heavenly. We didn't save room for desert and still had some leftovers. Healthy grilled chicken breast available on kids menu with a side for just $8.95 completed our evening. Can't wait to visit again. read more

Fishack - Scrumptious Seared Scallop Appetizer - Seafood Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

Very good visit. Fish was fresh and the special was prepared well. Service was excellent, and the cookie desert was very satisfying. Open air kitchen is fun to see, and there is a bar to add to the easy going atmosphere and set up. We were a party of two, seated on a weeknight, immediately. The only thing noticeable: my dining partner was a bit disappointed in was the online menu said they had clam strips, and the in person menu did not. Overall, I would return if in the area, and would recommend to others. read more

The Fishack has a nice down home feel to it. We were seated outside which was very nice as the weather was perfect for outdoor dining. The couple who we were with and who recommended this venue to us had the fried shrimp basket in the past and raved about it. I usually try to stay away from fried food as much as I can but it was spring break so what the heck. I ordered the fried shrimp and scallop basket. I also ordered clam chowder and someone at the table ordered the crab cake. The Clam Chowder was thick and creamy with nice pieces of clam. It was served nice and hot which some restaurants fail to do. I heard that the crab cake was also very good. The shrimp basket was very good. The shrimp were lightly breaded, a nice size and flavorful. The scallops had a different batter which was also good. The scallops were cooked perfectly and were juicy inside, not overcooked. We finished it all off with a nice peanut butter ice cream pie which I would also recommend. Next time I come I would like to try the fresh fish. This place has 5 star potential but the kitchen messed up and one of the dishes came out way after the others. When that happens everyone waits for the last dish to be served which means the food cools down which reduces the flavor. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. If you're in the area stop in. You won't be sorry. read more

We stopped in for lunch while visiting Vero Beach - there are lots of options here so the reviews helped with the decision making process as did the comments by the owner but it was the eclectic menu that sold me. I also like the street side parking but I did noticed there is parking directly across the street but since I didn't have to search for a spot I'm not sure if that is a free option or an option at all. Once we entered the restaurant we were greeted by Keith who turned out to be our server - he has a great personality and exceptional customer service skills, it was obvious after spending a few minutes in the restaurant he has a great rapport with the customers in his section, that is if there are sections it seem everyone here does whatever it takes to ensure anyone dining here has a good experience, it's the kitchen's responsible to ensure the food closes the deal. We ordered iced tea and decided to try the angel hair onion rings to start while still looking over the menu and daily specials that are printed on a small card. Keith quickly suggested a half order since we were ordering entrees. The onion rings were good, maybe a little over done although I like them crispy so no harm no foul and a half order is a lot believe me - the sauce was just okay I'm guessing a mixture mayo and cocktail sauce not bad but if they added a few other choices alongside this one it would make this appetizer more appealing in my opinion. Fish and Chips - my first question always (especially in Florida) is what's the fish? Well Fishack has taken this dish to the next level - they give the customer a few options, adjusting the pricing as needed, today's its North Atlantic Cod / Haddock / Mahi Mahi. We choose the Haddock it was delicious and I believe any of the three would of been fine. The batter was amazing as were the fries - please just pass me the malted vinegar and leave me be. Seafood Stew - over cheese ravioli okay, uhm I ordered it because it was an interesting item, a daily special, quite creative and being from Louisiana Seafood and Stews have always been part of the culture I grew up with so it got my attention. Admittedly I was a skeptic how could I not be but I knew there was something special about the chefs abilities and of course Keith ensured me it was epic lol, okay bring it on. It arrived portioned correctly for lunch, of course my first request prior to taking my first bite was "you got any hot sauce" what he brought me was absolutely a requirement this stuff made the dish although I'm sure it's delicious without it. Fishack Hot Sauce - yes of course they sell it duh this is magic in a bottle, this sauce is made in house and now it's in my home - I know $10 a bottle is expensive I feel the same way although since I've used it generously on my entree and had to refrain from drinking it out of the bottle I think it's a good value. I understand creating it in house is much more expensive than having it mass produced by McIlhenny so it is what it is and I recommend you at the very least give it a try. Yes I will return when in the area to try some of their other interesting offerings. This is beautiful restaurant with a great staff and they are serving quality food at reasonable prices. This is not the typical Florida seafood restaurant that continues to disappoint, this is truly what I'd called real old Florida charm... read more

Ordered the New England clam chowder in Manhattan Conchshell mixed. Then, we had the special of Haddock with a crab cake on top, lemon butter sauce, special rice and grilled veggies, followed by their homemade key-lime pie.

We were doing some shopping in Vero and wanted a nice, casual seafood restaurant. This place was the perfect fit. Cute, casual vibe and great service. I had the fried shrimp basket and took half home. Daughter had the raw oysters that were fresh and decent size. She also had the Blackened Shrimp and Grits and said it was amazing! Really good margaritas, too! read more

The food is mostly high priced fried food. The place is old and dirty. The ceiling vents are caked with dust and dirt. It's no more than a dive bar with bar food. Bathrooms are pitifully dirty and worn out. For the price there are other restaurants with much better cleanliness and food. Some of the others even have an ocean view read more

My second spot on meal in Vero Beach as i met friends here for an excellent seafood meal. Started with their New England Clam chowder that was just ok, it was a little too thick and the flavor was slightly off to what I am used too. Then my entree was a home run, I destroyed a fried seafood combination platter of oysters, shrimp, scallops, shrimp and fish, all crunchy and lightly dusted and seasoned properly served with wedges of lemon and a very good homemade tartar sauce. Then the fries that came with it were also very good, served piping hot, seasoned and crunchy, loved it. Also had a very good margarita served in a nice tall glass. This place is a total winner. read more

Fishack - Fried Combo Platter - Seafood Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

Wow wow wow!! This is hands down the best fried seafood I've ever had! And blows every other seafood joint in the vero area, out of the water! The staff was so kind. We went on off hours at 2:30 pm and would recommend that as it was easy to get a table. Other times I hear there is a line out the door. And for great reason! We had the shrimp and scallop basket and the shack fish sandwich. Every single thing was cooked to perfection! Even the fries! The scallops were huge and so tender as well as the shrimp! I've been so disappointed with all fish places in this area since I started visiting 10 years ago. But finally I have a go-to place! The owner was on premises and so friendly. The interior decors was very cute with beach murals on the wall. I only wish I had discovered this place 10 years sooner!! Some complain about parking but the lot across the street is $5 and if you show them your parking receipt on your phone they will take the $5 off your bill. Love this place!! Will for sure be back! read more

Came here about a month ago while in Vero Beach. A very tiny restaurant that packs a serious punch! We sat outside and I really loved their patio. The night was absolutely gorgeous and I felt like the appropriate precautions had been taken. The tables were all spaced out six+ feet apart. I ordered the scallops for dinner, which may have been some of the best scallops I have ever had. My boyfriend ordered the tuna tacos which were also incredible. My dad got the fish and chips, which were a hit! You obviously can't go wrong with key lime pie in Florida, so that's what we ordered for dessert. Like the scallops, the pie may have been the best key lime pie I've ever had -- and I'm from Florida...I've had a LOT of slices of key lime pie! Service was friendly, prices were fair. Would love to come back. read more

Nice restaurant, food was fantastic and large portion for the price. I got the lobster mac special ($22) which was enough for lunch the next day. Right next door is the molten mermaid which does a lot of fondue including chocolate fondues. read more
