Man I hate to do this but something has changed at Tiki. My wife and i have visited many many times…read moreand enjoyed the Tiki Hut tremendously. However our last two visits were not good. Last week we had drinks and I ordered a Margarita less OJ like I always do. It was straight sour mix on ice. Verified by 2 people at the table. I told the server that I think they forgot the tequila. She came back with the same drink and said the bar said "its because I skipped the OJ" ?? Well that would make it taste like sour and OJ wouldnt it? It still wouldnt taste like Tequila because there was none in it. Tje poor server agreed with me and apologized. She also said management will not let them freepour anymore and they are mandated to use jiggers. She said there had been several complaints about drink quality. I left the full drink , minus 3 tastings , on the table. Not only didnt they remake it, they charged me for it. Fast forward a week and we had friends visiting so we took the to the tiki to eat lunch. Everyone had mahi , 2 fried, one blackened. The blackened dish was cut up like french fries and drier than dirt. No one ate it. The fried plates were terribly fishy. I eat fresh mahi routinely and this wasnt fresh by any means. Im afraid we are going to have to find somewhere else to visit. There just aint much good around there anymore but the views, the music and the conch fritters ( but even they werent that great last time)

We wandered into the Village Tavern of Sebastian on a Saturday afternoon after running errands, and…read moreit instantly felt like one of those hidden gems you kick yourself for not finding sooner. We live just down the road in Vero Beach, so discovering a neighborhood tavern with this much charm practically in our backyard was a real win. We had already eaten lunch at Nini's Cuban across the parking lot, so we stopped in just for a beer. Within minutes we were pulled straight into the atmosphere. Nancy, the bartender and proprietor, is the kind of host every small tavern dreams of. Warm, funny, and completely at ease, she makes newcomers feel like long‑time regulars while keeping the whole place running smoothly. The beer selection is far better than you would expect from a cozy local spot. There is a rotating craft lineup that rivals bigger bars, along with the classics and a surprisingly solid wine list. We spent half our visit sipping and the other half laughing at the hilarious signs covering the walls and at the antics of a couple of regulars who clearly keep the place lively. We have not tried the food yet, but the vibe alone guarantees we will be back and we will be coming hungry. This is the kind of place where you settle in, meet the locals, and let the afternoon drift. For the record, our beer of choice that day was "Cougar Bait." It is as much fun to drink as it is to say!

If you're looking for a place that makes you feel like you actually belong in the neighborhood,…read moreVillage Tavern Restaurant is that rare gem that delivers comfort, quality, and character with every plate and pint. From the moment I slid onto a barstool, I knew I was in for something special -- and not just because the beer list reads like a love letter to hop heads and casual sippers alike. Each pint poured is thoughtful, crisp, and refreshing, with local craft brews rubbing shoulders beside tried‑and‑true favorites. I lost count somewhere around the third flight, but honestly? Worth it. And then there's Nancy, the bartender -- sweet lord, if every tavern had her warmth and precision, we'd all be happier people. She recommended beers without braggy pretension, anticipated refills like a mind reader, and managed a perfect balance of friendly conversation and professional grace. Her service alone is worth the trip. Great food, killer beers, and a bartender who makes you feel like a VIP? Village Tavern doesn't just raise the bar -- it is the bar.

One e of our favorite restaurants ever. Didn't have to wait long for a table and my salivary glands were working overtime, My girlfriend ordered fried shrimp the rest of us had Fish and Chips, Hiram's is never a disappointment everything is always excellent. So many seafood restaurants use garbage fish for fish and chips. Not Hiram's, always Cod and priced reasonably $18 for an order. The atmosphere and ambience is amazing incredible views during the day. It's hard to compliment Hiram's other than to say it's 5 stars in our book.

It just started raining and some of…read morethe outer tables were getting wet so we took refuge at the center bar and met with the bartender who provided two of his favorite meals and we took his advice. As we waited under ten minutes for our meal, the wife was in awe of the choo choo train the circled the bar above our heads, a cool addition that goes a long way. Grilled Shrimp Skewers and NY Strip French Dip. OMG the shrimp were awesome with the crispy carrot wedges were a nice side. Drenched my NY Strip hoagie into the french dip since I love it soggy and it was perfectly flavored. The french fries were plentiful and seasoned well but not as crispy as I would like. The restaurant sits on the river but since it was late there was no view, but we were able to hear the live rock n' roll music coming from the stage at the Sandbar. The clean gender assigned bathroom was gorgeous with green ocean themed epoxy flooring, lizard skin walls and bamboo partitions. It was a WOW effect upon entry.

This is the only restaurant on property and the menu is small. Service started with bread, which included rolls and corn bread.

We also ordered dessert, which was the highlight of the meal. Service was also really great. It's just a very limited menu.

My wife and I are staying at the Disney's Vacation Club Vero Beach resort…read more We wanted to try out the Wind and Wave restaurant. We had a bit of a wait so we went to the Green Cabin room for a couple of drinks. Beautiful lounge with beautiful views of the ocean. When our table was ready we asked if we could bring our drinks to the restaurant and the bartender said we would have to transfer drinks into to go cups and they would transfer them back into glassware as soon as we were seated. When we were seated a manager type person said our server was busy with a huge order and he was more than happy to help. He did accommodate us with getting the glassware for our drinks. He also took our order to help out with our server. My wife ordered the chicken salad with avocado and the French onion soup. I ordered the mahi mahi fish and chips. I have to say the fish and chips were some of the best. Four fish planks with tasted like a home made tartar sauce. They laid on a good portion of fries that were cooked well. The restaurant was a quaint nautical themed place with a nice atmosphere. We had the festive center piece due to the Christmas season. The server I think forgot our French Onion soup and brought it to us a bit late in the dinner. It was a hardy soup and we couldn't figure out what was causing a sweet taste to it. Maybe they used a sweet onion in the recipe. When we received the bill it had a 25 dollar corking fee place on the bill and we had to remind our server they we brought them from the bar and he was more than happy to take it off the bill. Overall the restaurant put out great food at a little bit higher price point, but well worth the experience. If we come back to the resort we will definitely plan on having dinner here again.

Most of the food hit the mark, though the fries were a letdown: no flavor, no salt, just... there. The real highlight was the covered outdoor patio, especially since it was raining this particular day. Sitting there, watching dolphins play in the water, made the whole meal more enjoyable. One thing to note--and I wish the restaurant had pointed this out --is the automatic 18% gratuity added to the bill. There were only two of us, and we didn't notice until after we'd already left a generous cash tip on top. Many places only do this for parties of six or more, so it felt a bit sneaky. It should absolutely be posted somewhere visible or mentioned by the server. Would I go back? Probably, for the patio and the vibe. But next time, I'll be double-checking the receipt before tipping extra.
