Cashew bowl with tofu
Azsure D.

10/10 for inclusive spaces!! And for having vegan options!! Super cute and even odd looking bar/restaurant/other space in Vero Beach. Limited parking shared with other businesses. Notable: This business charges an extra 3% on top of your bill to pay their staff, plus you are expected to tip. It is clearly noted in the menu. Lots of good beverages to choose!! Excited for vegan food, we ordered a vegan empanada app which was interesting in a puff pastry. I hope the pastry dough was sans butter. I ordered the cashew bowl plus tofu when I was told the tofu came crispy. I can attest this is not crispy tofu hahaha. And, as a plant based eater, I encourage the team to continue practicing their vegan cooking. I can't wait to come back. I want better meals though, as mine was a miss. I have faith though!! They are on the right track. Overall, highly recommend this fun and whimsical loving place.

The band was playing and we enjoyed listening! The waitress/staff were quick to see what we were drinking. I decided not to have the grilled squid, but on a whim ordered it . It was cooked almost perfect and had a nice accompanying sauce. Yum!! You can sit inside where the band is, or outside and it's not loud at all. Enjoyed our visit and felt very welcomed. The Smithwick Irish Red beer was our go to with the octopus. We will be back to try more on the menu.

Sort of funny how the wife and I found this place. I started this system when there were no smart phones, and continue this method even as they exist. If in a town and wondering where I should go, I seek out a bar with an adjective-animal in its name. Blind Pig. Fainting Goat. Happy Monkey. Whatever. Yes, I know a mermaid is only half fish, but it is my game and therefore it qualifies. Anyway, another thing my wife and I seek out is FONDUE. Thus, when we crossed my search of adjective-animal bars and her search of fondue...bingo. We made a great choice. This place just bleeds good vibes from the moment you walk in. Unique exterior, beer garden area, cool wall decor, corners with all sorts of stuff going on, cool outdoor patio area, and, most importantly, great service. Thor (I assume one of the managers) greeted us, and elevated our experience. He was just covering until the other bartender came on, but we enjoyed the heck out his friendliness, efficiency, humor, and knowledge of the menu and of the bar. We got the three cheese fondue dish, and it was amazing. Plenty of cheese, plenty of dippers. We didn't add protein (I believe that cheese has protein in it), and I thought the pretzel and potato were the best dippers, although bread is a given as a good choice. PLENTY of beer on tap, and I had the Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA. Wife had the rose and liked it also. We went when they first opened, but you just had a feeling, looking around, that the place got FUN later on. Energetic background music, great atmosphere overall, fun people coming in, and this stop was awesome during our Vero Beach trip. I highly recommend, and see you there (the next time I go see my mom)...

Chocolate fondue
Alison A.

What can I say about a place that is truly amazing from start to finish. My sisters visit every year and this is their number 1 pick. We all love the shepherds pie here and it's hard to try anything else when you love that so much. The chocolate heath fondue is so wonderful and fun. Even my teenage granddaughter was smiling which says a lot. Servers are always excellent and accommodating no matter the request. Ambiance can't be beat. Make sure you attend on a music night. I almost left after the singer it became open mike and while I was waiting for my sister in bathroom they started and let's just say we had to find seats again because they were so good.

Vegan Samosa & Vegan Chocolate Fondue
Kelly T.

This place is amazing! I just stopped in for a quick bite but was surprised and delighted to find a Drag Bingo occurring! Tasty food, VEGAN options, great service. What more can you ask for?!?

Fisherman's Pot Pie
Lauren B.

Great food, music, service, & vibe. Amazing fish pot pie & steak sandwich. Best potato salad ever. Wish we were with more people to try a fondue or charcuterie board. We will definitely return!

David C.

Wow! What a gem here in Vero Beach! I came here with sole friends and this place was packed. There was gentleman performing some latest tunes, and the vibes were great. With a recommendation from friends I decided to have the samosas as an appetizer. They came in hot but they were amazing. Sad I had to share with my group but I felt they be missing out on such experience. I then I had the curry chicken pot pie. This dish came in hotter, both temperature wise and spicy. I almost burned my tongue but I took my time and enjoyed every bite. Lastly, I didn't order fondue but my friends did and I was able to try it! Another item that just didn't miss! I think this is one of the restaurant's favorites. 10/10 will come back!

Swiss cheese fondue was incredible!!!!!

Every Wednesday is Open Mic Night starting at 8 pm., hosted by Paul Rowan. It's local people

Are any of the fondues vegan? Maybe the dessert ones?

Yes we have a dessert vegan fondue.

I knew the food was going to be good because they were jam packed on a Tuesday! They have a large variety of specialty cocktails and a full bar. I enjoyed a specialty drink and then switched to prosecco. My server, Sarah, was outstanding and provided top notch service. They start you off with a yummy sweet cornbread service. I ate too much of the bread! For my meal, I started with the steak tartare and it was excellent, high quality beef. I then moved onto the chargrilled oysters which were a 1000/10! Amazing flavor... the blend of the butter and 3 cheeses was perfect! I then had the best pork chop I've ever eaten in my life. They brine it for 24 hours in a sweet tea mixture... I was thinking that would taste weird or sweet but it was neither. The chop was simply the most divine, juicy and flavorful pork chop I have ever consumed. Words can't express the deliciousness! It was 10000000/10. The chop was paired with the best grits I've ever had. I take grits seriously as a southern woman and those were magnificent. Restaurant was very clean. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The manager worked the room all night attending to guests and making sure everyone was happy. I highly recommend and will absolutely be back!!

The beet salad was refreshing. The lettuce was a little wilted but not terrible. The rock shrimp pasta was flavorful and the seafood was very tender. Came with a big portion of pasta that I requested on the side. My maple duck breast was amazing. Big piece with crispy skin and juicy meat. The seasoning was right. The mashed potatoes were smooth and fluffy. It also came with a small order of bread and the cornbread pieces were great. I'm sure the dine in experience would've made everything even better.

After a long day of preparation for Easter for 3 daughters we needed a moment for us, before the next days celebration. We had the back room to ourselves and it was just perfect. I just had to say, my husband loves to cook for me, especially short ribs and a beautiful brown sauce and he is amazing at it. Well, this blew him and I both away. Also, the skewers were something out of this world. There is an article about them in Vero Mag. This place is a secret we want to keep to ourselves but a place with this much talent is meant to be celebrated. Ohhh and the Short Rib Rangoons!

Smoky, creamy, and plated with carrot "petals" that looked cool, but definitely needed more of them because they hid a whole secret layer of hummus underneath. I ended up asking for extra bread like a responsible adult. No regrets. For my main I got the Curfew Bowl with chicken and it was legit perfect. The cilantro lime rice, the charred corn, the sweet plantains, the avocado sauce, the jalapeños... everything worked together. It's one of those dishes that's comforting but still light enough that you don't feel like you swallowed a bowling ball. Huge portion too. Service was great. My server was on point and even brought out a frosted bottle of water like I was dining in Valhalla. And shoutout to the five dollar beers today. A blessing. Solid spot for food, drinks, and watching a game. I'll definitely be back.

I had the creamy clam chowder which was delicious and full of clams. I also had the chicken dumpling potstickers (5) served on a bed of fresh arugula and pontsi sauce. Also cooked perfectly and delicious. My husband had the Mahi grilled served on sourdough bread sandwich, which came with a side of salad. Also a good choice. We didn't order dessert but I'm impressed that they offered a "special" for the day raspberry white chocolate cheesecake and they also change the flavor of creme brulette daily.

Live in Vero nearly 30 years ago and never knew this was here, or maybe it was an addition to the area after we moved away. Glad to have found it though because it is such a cute brunch place. Plenty of outdoor seating and while they had indoor seating with AC, we had a dog with us and wasn't able to be seated inside away from the heat of summer. I would suggest they maybe add some overhead fans to the outdoor seating to make it more comfortable during the brutal summer but no biggie. The service was very attentive and food was delicious with a Parisian, coastal vibe. Highly recommend!
