How our Kava drinks were served- it's best to drink it quick vs sipping -due to the taste. Different, huh?
David B.

Heard about this place from someone at my gym so decided to take a first date there last night. Neither of us had been here so we needed a little education. Nick was SUPER friendly, patient, knowledgeable and checked in on us regularly. Gonna be honest I don't recall the name of the Kava drinks we ordered but mine was to promote a feeling of euphoria and hers was to help with relaxation and sleep. She texted me this morning saying she hasn't had such a great night sleep in a very long time. We could definitely feel some positive effects about 10 mins in... subtle and not overwhelming at all. The atmosphere was warm and cozy and somewhat zen. Undoubtedly a fun experience which I would highly recommend. Now, before I wrap this up let me prepare you for what to expect- the beverage tastes kind of horrendous...just saying, and Nick gave us a heads up and let us know it was more about the positive effects it brings. In addition, you kind of slurp it out of a bowl- check out my pic. If you're thinking...oh heck no- I ain't doing that, you most likely are a bit uptight and probably need to loosen up. In that case- this is probably the perfect place for you. Life is stressful enough- pull up a chair at the 'bar' and relax with a Kava drink. Our experience mirrored the vision that the owner communicated in his overview of the business- great job! By the way- one last thing, the gentleman working with Nick behind the bar came over to say hello and seemed just as nice and friendly!

Very friendly staff... they were eager to teach about their products however I must say it is an acquired taste.. overall a great place to hang out and chillax.

They throw great parties!!  Fun for everyone

Great atmosphere, awesome people. It's like a big family . Best kava I've had yet. The staff is very informative and friendly, the kava is always smooth. I love how they always add new drinks to the menu.

I have been to this location as well as the one in Melbourne/Palm Bay Area. Both great environments. Knowledgeable staff. Drinks are very natural and relaxing. The kava is great for anxiety; calms you. The Maeng Da has qualities that will help with energy and pain relief. Very holistic approach. Definitely try them out as well as these locations.

See all

Terra Fermata feels like the coolest backyard concert you never knew you were invited to. Think of…read morean eclectic band rolling into your backyard--close enough to smell the sweat, the weed, and the realness of live music. No pool house... but a great bar that keeps the good times flowing. Grab a lawn chair, a picnic bench, heck--pull up an empty keg if you have to. It's retro, quirky, perfectly imperfect, and totally awesome. No giant stadium distance, no pretension--just musicians and music lovers sharing the same little patch of earth. You MIGHT see bands like: * The Flamingo Insurance Adjusters * Port St. Lucie Sock Drawer Orchestra * Josh & the Couchlandia Couch Cushions * Rotary's Midnight Funnel Cake Rebellion * The Sweaty Tiki Philosophers * Big Brother & the Little Noise Makers It's weird, it's wonderful, and it's exactly what live music should be. Perfect spot for a Rotary crew night out--or a fun BBBS-friendly show when the lineup fits.

Plenty of parking nearby, whether street, an empty field, or a lot around the corner. The pizza vendor near the front was our first stop and it was pretty damn tasty! Lots of seating and tables for people to sit and enjoy the music, plus a bar full of craft beers. Due to my bad knee, this is where I ended up sitting and the view was great. My bartender Tom was fast, efficient, friendly, and guided me toward a new sour I'd never tried before but loved.

From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. They had our table ready quickly, and we didn't even need a reservation for our party of seven, which was a nice surprise. The menu had a wide variety of craft cocktails, along with delicious appetizers, and everyone at the table loved their meals. It was one of those brunches where everything just hits right--great food, great service, and a relaxed atmosphere.

When is La Grande not so Grande?…read more Been wanting to visit this classic restaurant in historic downtown Stuart since my move to Stuart. Tucked in the old Post Office Arcade building, its partially hidden walkway leading to the restaurant only adds to what lies ahead. As you enter you step into a world that speaks to a time of classic old world elegance. Antiques, elegant draping window coverings and a beautiful fountain at its center, this restaurant brings to mind what a dining experience was like in the nineteenth century. Unfortunately, the service and food sadly do not match the exquisite ambience. SERVICE : The service, or should I say lack of service was evident from our first step in the door. We waited for several minutes before anyone noticed we were standing there waiting. Once noticed, we explained that we had a 7 pm reservation which the hostess of course could not find. She scanned the restaurant (which was empty at the time) and told us she would see if she could find us a table. After several minutes we finally were seated. Another 15 minutes past before someone walked past and asked if we had been taken care of, which of course we had not. He assured us that he would get someone as soon as possible, which added another 10 minutes to our already extended wait. Eventually our "server" showed up. You'll note that I put the word server in quotes because this person was anything but a server. So as not to bore you with specifics, let's just say I have a problem calling someone a "server" who is totally incapable of serving! A person who doesn't understand "medium rare", who misses several ordered sides and charges us for dishes we never received clearly doesn't deserve the term "server". THE FOOD: There were three people in our party. For appetisers, we ordered the Martier Escargot which had a bitter taste because of the burned butter, the Blueberry Brie Crostini, which turned out to be the best dish of the evening was outstanding, and the potato goat cheese puffs were light and delightful. For our entree's, we ordered the Cedar Plank Salmon which was overcooked, dry and tasteless, the New Zealand Lamb Chasseur which was fine except for the missing asparagus (which our server assured us he would get back out and immediately forgot) and finally the 12 oz Prime New York Strip which was cooked well done instead of the medium rare requested. I do need to mention that the garlic risotto was fantastic, creamy and tasty. Unfortunately, we had to enjoy it at home as our server didn't bring it until we were completely done with our meals! As far as desserts go, after our 1 1/2 hour stay, we decided to forego any additional pain and accordingly skipped dessert. Finding our server throughout the night was a challenge of hide and seek and this includes getting our final bill which, as mentioned above, took three trips to get right! The Ambiance: This is an absolutely beautiful restaurant that cries for matching service and a creative efficient kitchen that produces dishes that represent their grand names. THE BOTTOM LINE: As with all my reviews, we come to what I like to call the "customer so what". Would I come back? The answer... as a walk through to see what elegant dining looked like in the 19th century... absolutely! Perhaps you could sit at the bar and enjoy a Manhattan but, to dine? The offerings, as mentioned, were a mixed bag but unless you're into the pain of some of the worst service you'll ever experience, absolutely not!

I wanted to try a Chai Latte for the first time (I know, right?) but need to avoid sugar. This should have been the part where she told me it wasn't actual Chai tea but a processed concentrate loaded with sugar. I obvi couldn't finish it once I discovered the sugar content, but on the upside now I know that most coffee shops serving "Chai" anything are actually using a syrup, not the actual tea. Even with the sugar mishap the place is darling and we will definitely return whenever we visit the Stuart/Jensen Beach area. The divorce lawyer next door had a hilarious sign we couldn't resist - I wonder if they're always this funny? We'll check it out next time - although I think I'll stick to a plain Latte with almond milk.
