“Maison Martinique Restaurant- Vero Beach-3.5-Stars "Too many people eat just to consume calories. Try dining for a change." -- J. Walters Located within the luxurious Caribbean Court Boutique Resort is where one will find Maison Martinique. This almost hidden gem offers al fresco dining as well as three dining rooms within, so grabbing a table should not be a problem. However, as it is situated within the aforementioned Resort, calling ahead for a reservation wouldn't be a bad idea. As I did not, I was thankful for the ample seating and was lead to a vacant table almost immediately. Perusing the menu, I must say that I was highly impressed with the offerings and could only hope they tasted as good as they read. Suddenly, an odd idea popped into my head. Why not order all the specials off the menu today instead of flinging darts and ordering what they land on? As soon as I had this thought, my server, Aubrey appeared table side and inquired as to my readiness to order. I let it be known that I was indeed ready and asked for a Glenlivet neat*(side o'rocks) to get the ball rolling and then the specials of the day. Aubrey told me I couldn't go wrong with that choice and to that end put in an order for Curry Lamb Soup, one Goat Cheese Bake and one Bombay Sapphire Martini to wash it all down. Aubrey soon returned with my Scotch and what a Scotch it was. Just look at that picture. That had to be a 3.5 oz pour or I'm not the Big Boy (love you, Aubrey)!! I was about halfway through the Single Malt Nectar of the Gods when Aubrey set my food before me. Take a minute and glance at the rest of the pictures. As one can see, the presentation was stunning. If the food was as good as it read, looked and smelled I was in for yet another gastronomical treat in the burgeoning haute cuisine scene of Vero Beach. Let the festivities begin! I was told by a chef in Vero Beach that the bread should set the standard for the rest of the meal as it is the first sampling from the kitchen the customer experiences. This bread, as one can clearly see, was indeed baked on site. However, I have a sneaky feeling (due to taste and consistency) that is was baked from pre-made, frozen dough. While it tasted fine, it didn't hit the table running, so to speak. So far, so meh. As I could smell the curry lightly wafting up from the soup bowl, I hungrily procured my spoon and dove in. With what I assumed were red lentils(?) and USDA prime chunks of lamb, this not only jumped over the bar set by the bread but obliterated it in the process. The curry was perfectly proportioned and in no way overwhelmed the lamb. The lamb was so tender it almost melted on the palate like so much lamb flavored butter. This dish alone is 5 stars all day, every day. Moving on to the Goat Cheese Bake, I couldn't help sneak a last smell of the soup before trading in my spoon for a fork. The Goat cheese is broiled first, then baked on a fresh crostini that was crispy and chewy. The delicious red sauce added deep rich flavor to the divinely lightly crusted goat cheese. I could eat this every night. The accompanying Lobster and Scallop baked rice was soft and flavorful, though I could swear that the seafood rested too long and slightly killed the dish. The asparagus, while cooked to veggie perfection, lacked enough seasoning. The Bombay Sapphire Martini sans blue cheese stuffed olives was still delightful and just as heavy as the Glenlivet. As I mentioned at the start, this is the first time I have ever spurned the menu to order all specials. As such, I have to give credit where credit is due and all in all this kitchen crew knows what they are doing and sling forth some excellent chow. However, with the bread being the bread that it was and the seafood over rested, I stand firmly behind my 3.5 Star rating. The Big Boy says, "For a strong drink and a Goat Cheese Bake you can eat all day, call up and reserve a table at Maison Martinique." #iamthebigboy #bigboydiningout”

“We had a fantastic time at The Tides celebrating my husband’s birthday! He loved his blackened mahi, which was perfectly cooked and served with mashed potatoes, green beans, and carrots. Krystina and I enjoyed the peppercorn filet topped with melted Gorgonzola and crispy shallots, paired with veggies. Our daughter, Maiya, also enjoyed her chicken tenders and fries. The baked oysters and ahi tuna nachos were the highlights of the appetizers. Our server, Robert, was attentive and friendly, making the night truly special. It was a memorable evening filled with great food and service!”

“My husband and I made reservations for Thanksgiving Dinner, weeks ago, for Chez Frenchie's. We weren't sure what restaurants were open for Thanksgiving so we reserved the first place we called. BIG MISTAKE! When we got there and were seated, we sat at our table for a half an hour and NOBODY came to our table, not even for water!!! Servers passed by our table and we were completely ignored. So, I got my phone out and called next door to Trattoria Dario Restaurant and asked them if they had any available tables, seeing that it was Thanksgiving, and the hostess there said yes and that they could seat us immediately. So my husband and I got up and left Chez Frenchie's and walked over to Trattoria Dario Restaurant. We should have made our reservation at Trattoria Dario's instead, but we didn't know they were open. We got there and we were seated immediately. We had Taylor R. as our server and she was amazing!!! We were served immediately. The food was absolutely amazing!!! We ordered two Beef Carpaccio for appetizers, and I also had a side Caesar Salad. For dinner my husband had the Bone In Veal Chop with Mashed Potatoes and Brussel Sprouts, and I had the Paccheri Aragosta which is usually Shrimp and Lobster with Pacheri Pasta with a sherry wine pink cream sauce with peas, but I asked if they could specially make it with linguini pasta instead and with a garlic butter sauce with no peas. I felt a little uncomfortable asking for a dish to be made differently, seeing that it was a holiday, but they made it for me no problem. I'm so happy this unfortunate mishap happened with Chez Frenchie's because Trattoria Dario was incredible and our server Taylor R. was amazing!!! We definitely will be returning!!!!”

“I don’t care what anyone says negative about this place. Sarah, Lindsey and Alexa are your bar tenders. They are the face of the company. They are so perfect in their jobs. The people who they take care of is our older population. I have witnessed them in action. The respect they give to people that are older is phenomenal. That in my opinion is critical for any company. i support these three women 100% in their values and their commitment to the company.”

The service was absolutely incredible, she greeted us right away, very pleasant and extremely attentive, we started with the lamb pops for an appetizer along with the delicious Artichoke Hearts...the timing was perfect as we needed to catch a play at Riverside Theater that night. My wife ordered the Chicken Avavzare and I had the Ribeye Steak. Both were prepared to perfection. Our server Elizabeth suggested a great pairing wine to compliment our meal. Our experience was beyond our expectation as we are true foodies. I highly recommend Vero Prime for any occasion and we look forward to returning. Our experience couldn't have been better and a special thank you to Elizabeth. Gio and Beth, Port St Lucie, FL”

“Armani's Cucina 1920 14th Ave. Vero Beach, FL 32960 5 Stars In the mood for some 5-star food, I reset the parameters on my random name generator to the more food-friendly climes of Indian River County. The closer one gets to a big city in the Sunshine State, the better the food. Go figure. Paris is our service professional, and let me tell you, the stars and planets really aligned for this meal. Paris is an outstanding member of the team and one thing you don't normally see is good food with good service. Usually, the better the food, the worse the service. I'm not exactly sure of the correlation here, but I do have a few theories worthy of a dissertation or two. I put in an order for Kerry's Steak Marsala, the Pear & Gorgonzola Fiocchi and the Polpo alla griglia with a side of Asiago garlic bread. Enjoying the warmth of the place, I snapped a few pics and soon witnessed Paris returning with my order. Keeping the phone out, I quickly took some pics of the cuisine and eagerly dug in. The aromas emanating from the plates laid out before me were mesmerizing to the food inspired. Before digging in, know that I do not hide behind a screen of fustian and fluffery. For those reviews, see the now defunct Florida Today food section. What I write is what I got. I don't care if they like it, you like it, or the President likes it. Someone needs to tell it like it is. First up on my no-holds-barred palate was Kerry's Steak Marsala. I am a huge fan of anything Marsala as it is quick, flavorful and adds a splash of gourmet to any protein if done correctly. And this? This was done superbly. The chef took a medium-grade hunk of cow flesh, cooked it to a perfect medium rare, and nailed the Marsala sauce. If there was any minus to his production, it was the casting of canned mushrooms instead of fresh ones. Not my choice, but acceptable in this sauce. Forcing my fork to move on, I turned my taste buds toward the Pear & Gorgonzola Fiocchi. As the flavors exploded on my tongue like so many pop-rocks of days gone by, I had to close my eyes to truly savor this divine moment. This dish was bursting with flavor and an absolute out-of-the-park home run. This brings me to the final dish ordered today (I'm pretty sure I will be back) the Polpo alla griglia. I admit this is a more advanced dish, if only for the visual, than your average Italian fare, but it is one of my favorites. Once again, our James Beard impersonator in the back was obviously taking his job very seriously as this was exceedingly exquisite and obviously prepared with love. I would be remiss if I failed to mention the side of Asiago garlic bread. One bite and I knew the bread person was on the same page as the head chef. This was to die for. It's sad that we have to leave Brevard County to experience dining of this level, but here it is, right next to my #1 Breakfast place in Florida. It is what it is. The Big Boy says, “Come here and taste fantastic Italian food—food that does not exist in Bree-vard.””

“We ordered carry out last night and it was the best we've tasted in Vero. Our order consisted of Sweet & Sour Chicken, General Tso's and Crab Rangoon. Also ordered side salad with ginger dressing. Both entrees had light breading, high-quality chicken breast with light (not your typical) sweet and sour sauce. General Tso's sauce was freshly made to order and delicious. They actually asked how spicey I wanted it when we ordered. Crab Rangoon was made with light wonton wrap and you could actually taste crab. It wasn't crazy sweet like most you find locally. I loved it. Service was fast (10 min), staff were crazy nice and everyone was hustling! Inside only has a handful of small tables, so definitely a take-out for our family, but they do also have a few tables outside by the road. Not my cup of tea, so we'll just do carry out, but I'm fine with that! It's my family's new go-to for sure!”

You can see people adjusting there hearing aids not joking. Even my friend visiting was adjusting. Even other people were complaining. I Spoke to manager. He said to complain to district since he had no control of volume ?????? It was not a good experience. So, if you want a nice eating time on the water don't go there when football games are on. For outside eating. I wanted to go because of the game, won't do that again. Unless they can control the volume.”

“Armani's Cucina 1920 14th Ave. Vero Beach, FL 32960 5 Stars In the mood for some 5-star food, I reset the parameters on my random name generator to the more food-friendly climes of Indian River County. The closer one gets to a big city in the Sunshine State, the better the food. Go figure. Paris is our service professional, and let me tell you, the stars and planets really aligned for this meal. Paris is an outstanding member of the team and one thing you don't normally see is good food with good service. Usually, the better the food, the worse the service. I'm not exactly sure of the correlation here, but I do have a few theories worthy of a dissertation or two. I put in an order for Kerry's Steak Marsala, the Pear & Gorgonzola Fiocchi and the Polpo alla griglia with a side of Asiago garlic bread. Enjoying the warmth of the place, I snapped a few pics and soon witnessed Paris returning with my order. Keeping the phone out, I quickly took some pics of the cuisine and eagerly dug in. The aromas emanating from the plates laid out before me were mesmerizing to the food inspired. Before digging in, know that I do not hide behind a screen of fustian and fluffery. For those reviews, see the now defunct Florida Today food section. What I write is what I got. I don't care if they like it, you like it, or the President likes it. Someone needs to tell it like it is. First up on my no-holds-barred palate was Kerry's Steak Marsala. I am a huge fan of anything Marsala as it is quick, flavorful and adds a splash of gourmet to any protein if done correctly. And this? This was done superbly. The chef took a medium-grade hunk of cow flesh, cooked it to a perfect medium rare, and nailed the Marsala sauce. If there was any minus to his production, it was the casting of canned mushrooms instead of fresh ones. Not my choice, but acceptable in this sauce. Forcing my fork to move on, I turned my taste buds toward the Pear & Gorgonzola Fiocchi. As the flavors exploded on my tongue like so many pop-rocks of days gone by, I had to close my eyes to truly savor this divine moment. This dish was bursting with flavor and an absolute out-of-the-park home run. This brings me to the final dish ordered today (I'm pretty sure I will be back) the Polpo alla griglia. I admit this is a more advanced dish, if only for the visual, than your average Italian fare, but it is one of my favorites. Once again, our James Beard impersonator in the back was obviously taking his job very seriously as this was exceedingly exquisite and obviously prepared with love. I would be remiss if I failed to mention the side of Asiago garlic bread. One bite and I knew the bread person was on the same page as the head chef. This was to die for. It's sad that we have to leave Brevard County to experience dining of this level, but here it is, right next to my #1 Breakfast place in Florida. It is what it is. The Big Boy says, “Come here and taste fantastic Italian food—food that does not exist in Bree-vard.””

“when it comes to soft serve ice cream you can't beat Carvel. Their ice cream is so creamy it's almost like whipped cream. I'm not someone that likes a bunch of toppings... good vanilla stands on its own. My personal favorite is frozen custard (found nearby) but Carvel's vanilla is so rich it stands up even to custard.
I picked up a cake, no birthday should go without an ice cream cake. The options were a little disappointing, every cake seemed to be the same mix of vanilla and chocolate. I've seen other options from Carvel at grocery stores. The only difference here is size, shape and some have a topping like the chocolate glaze (see photo).”

“The Green Cabin Room is a small bar on the second floor off the lobby of Disney's Vero Beach Resort. It has a loyal following. For our April 2024 visit, the bar opened at 5PM. There was a line, but we easily got seating. There's tables, bar seating, high tops, and outdoor seating on an oceanview balcony. Standard Disney Resorts bar menu, full bar, and specialty drinks are available. Friendly service. Amazing views! There is trivia and mixology classes offered, too! Highly recommended!”

“I don’t care what anyone says negative about this place. Sarah, Lindsey and Alexa are your bar tenders. They are the face of the company. They are so perfect in their jobs. The people who they take care of is our older population. I have witnessed them in action. The respect they give to people that are older is phenomenal. That in my opinion is critical for any company. i support these three women 100% in their values and their commitment to the company.”

“This place was really good! My boyfriend and I were pleasantly surprised considering the place from the outside looks totally abandoned. I had been wanting to go here for yearssss and when we showed up, I was like, omg, they're out of business! But no, they were very much ready to rumble! The inside of the building is very nice though. There were little elephants on our table. We only got sushi and for all that we got, it was $30 total. It was filling and very good!
Our server didn't check on us too much but thats okay. We will definitely be coming back!
Dietary restrictions: I have GERD and the sushi went over decently fine with me.”

“Izziban is an excellent Japanese sushi restaurant that delivers both on quality and experience in a modern setting and that still retains a touch of Japanese heritage. The food is delicious; I particularly enjoyed the Godzilla roll, the Strawberry Mango roll, and the potsticker appetizer. Each dish was flavorful and expertly prepared.
I enjoyed a lychee martini, which was delightful and well-balanced, not overly strong tasting. I also tried a tequila Midori sour, which was equally delicious and perfectly mixed. The water was served in a glass cup, adding a touch of class to the meal.
Our waiter was exceptionally attentive, unobtrusive, and personable. The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing and the booth we sat in was long spacious and comfortable.
The total bill for two people, including drinks, came to $91, which felt reasonable for the quality and service we received. Overall, I would absolutely choose Izziban again. It's a fantastic local vero beach only spot that I highly recommend.
Vegetarian options: Sushi restaurant, tons of clearly marked items with a green V
Dietary restrictions: Tons of milk free options.

Kitchen was very slow we waited for over a hour for just an appetizer but our server mendy was amazing and very attentive. She was running food seating people and taking care of everyone’s needs the best she could! We will give them another try and we will ask for mendy. She is a local and gave us plenty of ideas of local things to do. We figure if they are busy that’s a good sign!!”

“My wife and I (Beth) had our Anniversary dinner at Vero Prime Restaurant in Vero Beach. The service was absolutely incredible, she greeted us right away, very pleasant and extremely attentive, we started with the lamb pops for an appetizer along with the delicious Artichoke Hearts...the timing was perfect as we needed to catch a play at Riverside Theater that night. My wife ordered the Chicken Avavzare and I had the Ribeye Steak. Both were prepared to perfection. Our server Elizabeth suggested a great pairing wine to compliment our meal. Our experience was beyond our expectation as we are true foodies. I highly recommend Vero Prime for any occasion and we look forward to returning. Our experience couldn't have been better and a special thank you to Elizabeth. Gio and Beth, Port St Lucie, FL”
