Large group lunch fell short. Menu selection limited. Food prices slightly high for value. Waitstaff needs training and very slow service. This restaurant in its present incarnation is not long for this world unless it improves fast and substantially. Recent similar reviews appear to the be rule rather than the exception! Too bad...the ambiance and outdoor dining area are very... More

I had a reservation for 7:30. In the party was a very eldery gentlemen and a child. The first problem was in the drinks. A margarita that is advertised with a Gran Marnier floater did not have it and was apparant to me from looking at it. Upon mentioning this to the waiter he brings what was supposed to be... More

After dinner tonight, came home for a sandwich! Small portions, too small for the price. Evening special, duck breast was'nt even warm when served. The fish portion was 1/2 or less than expected in size, about 2 inches in width. Appetizers small - crabcakes (2) were just 1 inch in diameter. 8 ounce steak, $39.00??? Dessert, teramasu ws not traditional... More

We live in Vero and had heard this was a great place for seafood. We called at 6 PM and were able to get 6:15 dinner reservations at this popular young restaurant. Parking is on the street in downtown Vero. Atmosphere is nice, open formal inside, pretty outside patio, full bar at the back. Casual to dressy attire. Restaurant was... More

The Good: beautiful outdoor patio, creative martinins, decent wine list, interesting soups The Great: Tune Ceviche, nice serving of diced tuna with mix of avocado and more is very tasty Everything else: Portion sizes leave you wondering where the rest of your food went. Soups are served in coffee cups. The Crab Cakes are more like two small crab balls,... More

The food and service during my first dining experience on the outside patio was wonderful. We had appetizers (Homemade Blue Cheese Chips and crab cakes) and lunch (French Dip sandwich)which were delicious, fresh, and the presentation was mouth watering. Our server was attentive to us and to our four-legged best friend. Spent several enjoyable hours there. Wonderful culinary herbs also... More

I took my wife and parents to dinner last night - food overall was good. Service was surprisingly poor. Tuna ceviche, mahi mahi special, citrus salad all excellent. Charlotte's stuffed pork loin was so-so, arrived warm not hot, other salads were pedestrian. Service is where these guys fell way short. When we arrived the greeting was oddly chilly/nonchalant. The hostess... More

We have visited Vero Beach four times. We initially wanted water views for dining. Then, our great experiences at Havana Nights and the Caribbean Court made us look no further. Several staff members at the Caribbean Court raved about Osceola Bistro. We finally stopped with friends for lunch at our last outing to Vero Beach. It was an amazing experience.... More

We took a couple here tonight to introduce them to the restaurant. My hubby and I have eaten here a few times over the past few years. We sat outside in the "garden" area which is my preferred place. Other reviewers have explained it well so I will not go any further. The inside dining room is quite lovely as... More

We have been dining at the Osceola Bistro for the past 2 years. The food is very good and different from what you will find locally. We always get the mushroom/grits appetizer-amazing! The salads/dressings are always fresh and crisp. Most of their entrees are superb; the only downfall is that some of their sauces have a high salt content. The... More
