    Chicken Poke Bowl
    Annmarie L.

    Such a great place. Beautiful location by the water. Service was knowledgeable, friendly and prompt. Nice portions of food and very good. Absolutely would go back.

    Arrived and seated myself per the sign at entrance. A waiters greeted me and shared menus shortly afterwards. Come here for the oysters which they have at $0.99 Monday through Wednesday from 3-6pm. I ordered a dozen and a beer. The place has a lively vibe, games on tv, on the Indian River and classic rock music playing. Good times! The oysters were fresh and delicious, beer was cold and refreshing. Highly recommended!

    Clam strips

    Service was friendly. The clam strips just weren't as crispy as expected, and the cocktail sauce wasn't my favorite. I also find the water has a strong unpleasant taste that even comes through in the soft drinks.

    Hush puppies and lobster and crab stuffed clams.

    Amazing, Amazing, Amazing! All the food was recommended by our bar server Julie! She was fantastic - wonderful personality and very outgoing! We had hush puppies and stuffed clams to start. She also made a delish Bloody Mary! She went out of her way to bring out the sauce she liked busy to try with our food! I had the our salad with seared Tuna! And the Mahi Rueben - Amazing on every level! We will be back

    The food and run buckets were amazing! The service was top notch and the view is unbeatable! We will be back!!

    Cunsumers, beware of 'Junk Fees' and service charges!

    Squid Lips in Sebastian at one time was our favorite go-to restaurant when we have guests from out-of-town. Riverview ambiance, very nice staff and delicious crab/lobster cakes! Last night was incredibly disappointing, although our newly hired waitress was very nice, accommodating, and apologetic. We have had no complaints what-so-ever with Squip Lips through our decades of being customers -until now. We ordered 3 dinners of 2 piece crabcakes and 1 dinner of grilled Mahi and shrimp. The sauteed crabcakes were incredible, as always. However, the Mahi and shrimp wwas very overcooked and we are accustomed to their instant rice. Two issues were unacceptable and we feel the post our experience. 1) The mashed sweet potatoes was layer with rice, because the kitchen did not switch serving utensils. 2) Consumer beware! We were appalled to be charged a 'Junk fee' of 3.8% for "...our non-tipped staff who help make your experience enjoyable." This charge may have been going on for years and gone unnoticed. We were not told of this ridiculous charge when we receive our checks, however it is listed in the small print, just below their motto... "I am the bread of life, he who comes to Me will not hunger and he who believes in Me will never thirst." John 6:35. We found this statement to be a very interesting and contradictory to 'The Word'. In our frame of reference, business owners should always pay their staff a living wage and never, EVER double-dip into patrons' wallets to soften their responsibility as a business owner. We humbly ask that restaurant owners abide by the 'Golden Rule'. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

    This was our first time in the new Squid Lips and we were blown away. Awesome new design and very reasonably priced menu and an awesome setup for bands. Can't say enough about the atmosphere and excellent options on their bar menu. Great job done by owners

    Everything was perfect... the food, the view (location), the service Loved my piña colada drink too. I had oysters, but ate them before I snapped pics The interior of the restaurant is tastefully decorated with a nautical theme. It's open air deck is so nice with plenty of fans so I was surprised that it wasn't hot

    Ask the Community - Squid Lips

    Do you have all you can eat buffet and how much is the buffet starting out at?

    We do not have a buffet.

    Is the New squid lips tiki bar open yet?

    Unfortunately not. Still waiting for the city to approve items such as the landscaping. Hopefully, we will have approval some time this week.

    Do they take reservations?

    We did not make reservations and both times we went during prime dinner hours. We were sat immediately and even on the second visit, we swapped tables for one by the open window to enjoy the breeze and view.

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.

Fun time with conversation from another customer at the bar. The place is right on the river but it was dark outside so no view. Liked this place so much I came back for the breakfast buffet and the river was beautiful as the sun came up. Very good prices for food and great staff.

    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.
