Where to eat? Downtown Vero Beach teems with good restaurants

Downtown Vero Beach is full of shops, art galleries and an array of restaurants, some of which are in historic buildings that bring you back to Old Florida.

A great time to explore is during the First Friday street party from 5-8 p.m. on the first Friday of every month. The event features vendors, live music, and food and drink booths. It's also a good opportunity to dine at a restaurant.

Here are the best restaurants in downtown Vero Beach, roughly defined here as 14th Avenue and Old Dixie Highway from about 23rd Street to 16th Street.
