    Margarita was great, chips and salsa were just ok. Want fresher versions of them.

    Mexican food can be hit or miss in Florida. This is a cautious hit. It isn't the best I've ever had but not even near the worst. It does the job though. My Mexican food taste is a southwest mexican think Southern California and Arizona. This place feels the need. Love the decor and the service and prices were excellent.

    We were seated in the first booth when you walk in the door so we didn't feel like we were part of the restaurant. We could barely hear the music and with people coming and going, it was an annoying. Our server was very friendly and quickly took our drink order. The menu is large, so something for everyone. I started with a beer, as did my husband. His beer was served in a glass beer mug, whereas mine came in a smaller plastic one. Same price, but not the same glass. They served chips with salsa to start. The salsa was definitely hot, but the chips were stale. I settled on a cup of chicken tortilla soup and a chicken and a beef enchilada with rice. The soup came out piping hot, which I love. It was some of the best chicken enchilada soup I have had in a while. I had barely started my soup and my entree arrived. That makes me so mad as then I have to rush with my soup so my entree doesn't get cold. I didn't need to rush as my meal was barely lukewarm to begin with, which is frustrating. The enchiladas felt as if they had been sitting for quite awhile, so they were not my favorite. The rice was good. It's unfortunate as the enchiladas were filled with protein. When we asked for sour cream, they ended up charging us $1.79 for a scoop. Unbelievable!

    Just stopped in for a quick bite. Wasn't really very hungry but hadn't even eaten breakfast. Decided to have a snack. Ordered a plate of refried beans with cheese and a side of avocado. Although it's not hard to mess those up, it was fresh, delicious, and the service was excellent. I didn't do any research on this place ahead of time, but it seems that it's family operated? I love the cozy setting with all of the colors, artsy decorative accents and low level cheery Mexican pop music. The other patrons seemed genuinely pleased too.

    We moved to Palm Bay a few months ago but we have already driven to Sebastian half a dozen times just to eat Mexican food at Ay Jalisco. We love everything about this little restaurant, the atmosphere, colorful decor, great service and absolutely delicious food! And the prices are very reasonable. We've tried several other Mexican restaurants in the PB area but this is hands down the best.

    Super friendly wait staff! Great attitude inside, very comfortable and open. It's very clean. The fresh flavor in all their ingredients are a delightful touch. I recommend their burritos if you're looking for something filling. Everything I've ever had on their menu was superior to other Mexican restaurants here in Florida. Very affordable as well as being a good meal...

    Fantastic place. Highly recommend. My daughter and I chose…read morethis place because of the good reviews in the perfect location which is directly in between the two of us and about 2 hours drive from each. The view is spectacular, we sat outside. The service was really good, even though they were short-handed the night we were there. The servers were really hopping and did a great job keeping everybody's glasses full and got everybody their food quickly. All the food we had was perfectly cooked and perfectly tasty. We had some shrimp and I think what they call their seafood snack. It was basically a bowl with scallops, shrimp, crab, potatoes and corn na deliciously busy basting sauce. It was absolutely delicious. I'm sorry I didn't get any more photos to add to this.

    I really was glad that we found this restaurant. We were trying for something else and their…read morekitchen was under repair so we found this. The food was very good. I had the crab cake dinner which I felt was a little more bready than I would have hoped. I also enjoyed the fish dip. It is served with crackers which were all broken but the dip was good on its own. The food is a five star. The drop in stars comes from the service and atmosphere. The service was just barely present. She was slow and probably just spread too thin. The bigger issue was the music. When we sat it was at a good level. The DJ kept turning it up throughout the evening. By the time we left it felt like we were in a club. It was not even good club music. The music was 90s soul music. I love the music but would have preferred that as a background music. Crab stop is worth a trip, but I think I was just there on a bad night. I don't come enough to this area so will probably not return to here. I do encourage everyone to try this place, just maybe more of a lunch place.

    What a disappointment. For years before I moved to this area Blackfins was one of my favorite for…read morebreakfast and dinner. We moved to Melbourne Beach in Jan 2025 and still everything was good. Some changes in dishes we determined were just food costs cuts. This year my son and his family came and we had an early dinner. My 3 yr old granddaughter was excited to go to the shop that was usually by the hostess stand. It was relocated but now had nothing for children. The service was slow but we thought maybe it was busy since it was tourist season. The food was just fair. Last night was my birthday and of all the restaurants in town I chose Blackfins. What a mistake. Walking in was dangerously slick since they had flooding from earlier rain. We were sat in a small booth by the window. We had to walk out of the way since a dog that was a size of a horse was sprawled out on the floor. Our table was absolutely disgusting! It was dirty and sticky and the coasting of shellac had apparently gotten melted and was sticky and black. Even the seat was dirty and I ended up whipping away pieces of paper on my seat with my hands. Everything including my arms stuck to the table. It took awhile for a very young person with zero personality come to take our order. We gave him a drink and appetizer order. I was attempting to forget about how disgusting the table and the large dog was with the view. The drink that didn't have enough ice although I requested a tall glass with lots of ice arrived with the appetizer. It was good despite being served with greasy fried saltines. When I attempted to start eating a very large Woodstork was fishing on the rocks when the people with the large dog started throwing crackers at it..despite signs everywhere not to feed the birds. It then came up to the window and came too close for me to eat since it was eyeing our food. My husband sat still, told me to do so as well and was holding a knife should it attack. After 15 minutes it finally went away. Now our food was cold. We complained to the waiter but all he could offer was, "Thank you for telling me." No offer to relocate. Our main meals came. Both of our fish were way overcooked. Mine was dry and not edible. My husband's was dry but he didn't complain since my birthday dinner was basically ruined anyway. Forget the dessert I just wanted out of that dirty sticky area. So sad! I will have to find somewhere else to take me and my family.

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.

    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.
