Kind of touristy. The Happy Hour crowd at the bar is - very happy? Also, you can arrive by boat, as their is a dock for visitors. Food could be more consistent. Al

Not a destination for a special night out. Cafe is a bar room with a great location on water and offers cheap eats that taste good. We went on a rainy evening; were seating quickly and meet by friendly staff. I mention rain because multiple patrons were getting dripped on. Our table got sprayed by drips; mentioned it our waitress... More

There were five in our group. Waitress was pleasant. Food came out quick. The seviche was bland, no flavor, lobster bisque in bread bowl tasted so salty it as hard to enjoy. My blackened Mahi was anything but. It was bland! The steak was over cooked with no resemblance to medium rare (hindsight he should have sent it back) but... More

The restaurant is located on the Indian River Lagoon with interior and outdoor seating. Very scenic view of the lagoon and Barber Street bridge one of the major accesses to the barrier island where the cafe is located. A local hangout for locals with a variety of chicken, beef and seafood on the menu. Music in the bar area overlooking... More

The wife and I went there with two friends for a couple drinks. We sat outside at a booth on the deck. 1st problem is the tables are so out of wack that your drink slide from one side of the table to the other. Our bigger problem with the place is the waitress after taking our order told us... More

We had a Cheeseburger and a wrap. Both came with very delicious fries. Everything tasted so good. The service was normal, not too friendly.... I would go again for other dishes like fish. Great address for reasonnable prices!

Great views, absolutely outstanding service, very tasty food with decent portions. Nice bar and casual dining. Outdoor or indoor seating available. Loved the fish tacos. Definite difference in choices for lunch and dinner options. Couldn't get dinner items at 4:30, understandable, with prep and all. Appetizers $9-12, sandwiches and burgers $10-15, Dinner entrees $19-35. Actually worth the price, just a... More

As locals we enjoy going out to all the great restaurants here in Vero Beach. One of the best "go to" spots for us is the Riverside Cafe. They never fail to deliver good casual food, great service (ask for Janice) and wonderful views of the Indian River Lagoon. Be it drinks, appetizers, sandwiches or a full course dinner its... More
