my wife and I traveled to vero on a spontaneous vacation. we found this place online and were not disappointed!! We ate here every morning. The food and service are amazing with a great laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back when we return. I recommend the southern benedict!! It's second to none read more

Wish I could give more than a 5. A number of store owners recommended this restaurant that only serves Breakfast and Lunch, however, even after 12 noon there is still a limited w plenty of selection for breakfast. Same goes if u want a lunch item before noon With as good as the food was ( order bacon crisp and we'll done and they nailed it) but best part was the young, beautiful, smiling and funny waitress Hanna. She was delightful, professional, warm and even brought us some free sorbet. We will be back on our short stay here. read more

Look no further for the best breakfast in town! I've visited this restaurant yearly for over 30 years and I'm never disappointed. The lemon blueberry pancakes melt in your mouth. I opted for a healthier version of breakfast with the egg white omelette with veggies and a side of tomatoes. Again the breakfast did not disappoint! Fresh hot coffee was perfect as well!! read more

So good we went there twice in three days! Our first day our server was Julia and she was friendly and helpful! Our year old nephew loved her and she played along. All of our dishes were yummy from an omelette to Mahi sandwich pulled pork crab cakes and soup and sandwich. Delish!! Our next visit we had Ashley and she was delightful. Again the food was exceptional. I had the tuna salad sandwich with cole slaw, my husband had the New Yorker which was fresh made roast beef cheddar with horseradish sauce and fries and our aunt had the daily special split pea soup. She said it was the best she ever had!! All meals are accompanied by raspberry or lemon sorbet. They are open for breakfast and lunch. read more

Great experience at The Lemon Tree:-) From start to finish. This is my third visit here. All I can say is it gets better and better from one visit to the next. Michelle, Gen Mgr is a delight. She is attentive works very hard at making your visit here a happy addition to your day. Her daughter Victoria is an exceptional hostess a beautiful young lady. Cheerful, welcoming. First impressions are everything. So don't be surprised if yes there is a waiting line when you get there or list. This is a family owned and operated restaurant, oozing with charm just about everywhere you look. Vibrant with good energy, friendly people that may seem rushed. Since, it's not a large facility, may seem rush you don't let that give you a give you bad vibes impression. On the contrary, they are trying to please everyone they are trying to please everyone moving to please those that are rushed to go to the beach or go shopping in the quaint shops that's around this lovely and unique restaurant. As for the food? Totally Amazing! **Please, keep in mind if you're not 100% satisfied with the taste or appearance of your food. Let your server know.

Came here from CA with my now fiance. I wanted to show her a great southern breakfast, and boy did we get it here! Excellent eggs, sausage links, home fries and two big ol pancakes! By the end of the meal I broke out in a full Southern Drawl! read more

Low wait time Quick service Nice ambiance I was happy with my visit to the establishment read more

Service was ok. Our server didn't really seem like she was happy to be working. She didn't check up on us when our food came out and we ran out of coffee and she passed us several times... I had to eventually ask for more coffee... Ordered the Belgium waffle and it wasn't fluffy at all.. was kind of soggy too... Boyfriend ordered the lemon blueberry pancake and he said it was delicious! Would come back to try something else next time. *Didn't take pics bc the foods weren't photo worthy* read more

There's several reasons this place is popular .... First off, the staff all wear smiles. How super to be greeted by a person with a face that shines The menu is well presented and provides options for any requirements. I had the quiche OFD: tomato, basil and mozzarella in a flaky dough crust w/ fresh fruit side. Each bite was an eggy delight! Hubs had lobster Benedict and he said it was delicious with plenty of sweet lobster meat. Ultra clean and fresh looking decor... put it one your list and you'll probably have a 20 min wait - but it's worth it read more

Damn good quiche. Lots of energy from the staff. Great location and a nice porch. The spot to take a lady in your life.

Delicious!! My daughter and I each got a half sandwich with the BLT salad and we both loved it! The salad even came with a perfectly moist piece of cornbread and then complimentary sorbet. Service was kind and prompt. Would definitely eat here again! read more

We visited the Lemon Tree on a weekday morning for breakfast. The location is convenient in the downtown area of the island. The ambiance is cute and reminds me of a 1960's coffee shop. The service was efficient and very friendly. We received coffee right away and prompt refills. Our server was professional and polite. The food was not as good as we were hoping for at the start. Part of my hot dish was cold and the potatoes looked hours old. My spouse ordered a wafgle that came flat out blackened on one side. Let's just say whoever was in charge of the presentation missed the mark. Overall, it was a mediocre experience and since this visit we now eat elsewhere for breakfast. read more

Such a great breakfast spot! Excellent service- Ashley awesome. The food is so good! The southern eggs Benedict is a must!! Belgian waffle with strawberries and whip cream is delicious too. Will definitely go back read more

Looking at the other reviews, four of us decided to eat at the Lemon Tree for brunch on a Friday. They were busy but it was worth the 20 min wait to get in. I had the Mimosas. Beware, it is served in a Ball jar which holds a lot more than a champagne flute and very good. Having their fill of fish this week, the guys had the black angus burgers which they gave a thumbs up to. My Sister and I had one pancake with sausage with "Vermont" maple syrup. Although,the little jars with syrup served said they were from CA,it tasted like real maple syrup. Maybe just the distributor is from CA? The pancakes were huge and good too. I also had a cup of the lobster bisque, and it was just as tasty as any I've had in Maine! The service,also excellent. We will return again next year. read more

Overall, the food is delicious. The menu has something for everyone. We had a girls brunch. From the grit to the lemon blueberry pancakes, all was on point. Fun day!!! read more

This place was just okay, the food we got wasn't anything that wowed us or anything that would make us come back. It's not bad at all, but we were looking for something a bit different here that stood out. I feel they could do a bit more with their options here........It might do the trick for most though, see what you think on this one. read more

The wait was not excessive, the service was impecable, and my husband loved his breakfast. I ordered the quiche of the day, listed on the board for $17. I was looking forward to seafood quiche - but there were a very few tiny bits of seafood and loads of vegetables. What a disappointment! The bill came, and this little sliver of basically vegetable quiche was $23! The poor server felt terrible, and the manager did adjust the price to match what was posted. But it turned me off, how low-rent can you get? It should not be so hard to find a dependably good restaurant in this town. read more

Oh my god....this place is amazing and the staff was also. Wonderful food in a great location. Looking forward to coming again and passing it on to others. Better get there early if you want to eat though they shut down after lunch and run out of specialty items as well. read more

Excellent breakfast place. The lemon pancakes are especially good. Friendly and efficient service.

The Lemon Tree is a little gem in the heart of Vero Beach. It is perfect for a ladies lunch. I had the crab cake added to a Cesar salad. It is like a very clean upscale dinner inside. The staff is always great!! read more

We visited three times during our week stay in Vero Beach. Got coffees and a lemon blueberry pancake. Good coffee and fantastic pancake. It was large enough for us to share. Very friendly staff who made us feel like locals. By the third morning the hostess knew our order. Only wish we lived closer. read more

Taken in the order you recommend, The food was just awful. My wife had the soup du jour and it had a great similarity to a wallpaper paste. Granted it was broccoli cheese and it was late in the afternoon. I had the lobster bisque and the lobster must have just visited the kitchen because he did not make it to the soup. I had the chicken pot pie and the lobster and the chicken must have gone out together, because there was not NONE in the pie. As for the service it was outstanding, one could never have asked for more or better. Ambiance also outstanding, everything done with taste and very understated. read more

We loved this place. We went twice for breakfast. Great service and food. It's very cute and easy to get to.

This place I seems hidden, but is it a gem! Service was fantastic. Food did not take long at all and they had every table filled! Additionally food was amazing and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Can't wait to come back! read more

Lemon Tree - Omelet, Buttermilk Pancakes (1 Pancake) Southern eggs Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

While the server is always fantastic. The hostess was rude. Told us 25 min and we waited almost an hour. People before us were seated, they then called 2 other parties. The hostess then told her collague they were still seating others, not us. We were standing right there. she was caught trying to skip us purposefully. so she put us in the very very back looking at the kitchen. Not a good experience. We use to come here all the time. Clearly not any longer. We are residents not tourists. That behavior doesn't fly. Plus food was gross... cold hard scrambled eggs. Too bad Paul the founder wasn't back.. the restaurant was great then. Now. Just kids who don't know client service or professionalism or quality. read more

Cute small place in Vero that is frequented by locals and some of "us" tourists when in the area. I have only been for breakfast. Both times they have been completely full with people waiting outside. The interior is mostly whites and yellows with a country decor feel. They do not have espresso, just American coffee. They also do not have fresh squeezed orange juice. They gave me a bottled one when I asked for fresh squeezed. Insert puzzled face here. I would not say the menu is innovative. It's basically breakfast basics done well. The omelets are pretty big and it's a good idea to share if getting that. We like to go because it feels like you are dining in someone's house. It is very casual, everyone is very nice and eager to serve. read more

My friend & I stopped in for lunch. A little disappointed in the salad I ordered. My friend liked the quiche & fruit she had.

Perfect perfect espresso and they serve with a side of milk AND steamed milk so you can do it yourself. Average prices and great portions. Solid chicken and waffles, eggs and bacon, biscuits and gravy, and side of fruit. Cutest most authentic Vero place. read more

we've had breakfast here in the past and while it's pricey they overall food and experience has been good today not so much we ordered quiché and we specifically ordered loaded, we were served vegetable when we told our server she can back with a plate of bacon and said the quiche wall look the same, there was no i'm sorry can i exchange your order i've actually seen this lack of customer service there in the past when people have complained which tells me it's a management directive on how to handle with complaints i for one will not come back instead i'll go to Mulligans great customer service there read more
