   Although I am a local I did not realize that I couldn’t order off the Holiday Dinner menu until after 2:30 pm. I brought three seafood lovers with me so they were very pleased. I don’t eat seafood, ham, or prime rib. I had thought I could order my regular chicken dish which I love. I had a wonderful time with family but paid the $99.99 for Brunch to sit with my family. I asked the waitress if I could order off of a menu. I could not. But for the family they enjoyed their brunch very much ! If you’re a seafood lover you will enjoy their holiday brunch.

   Had Christmas Eve lunch with family. Always love the ambiance and view and the service was very good. They have a nice variety on the menu and something for everyone.

   We were a table for 2 so we were sat at a smaller table. Ordered ceviche appetizer which was very good. Ordered Caesar salad and they unfortunately brought out both appetizer and salad at the same time to the table which was annoying because we had a small table. Caesar was not good- mixed greens added in with romaine and the dressing was heavily mayonnaise based- didn’t taste like a Caesar dressing. Based on cost this salad should have been amazing. Skirt steak was very good. Waiter was ok. She was nice but not attentive. Overall disappointed. Will take a break from this place and hope it will be better another time.

   Excellent service, food, drinks and ambience. Our waiter David made some excellent drink and wine suggestions. Can’t wait to return.

   Love this place, great unique and authentic Cuban/Spanish. Paella is amazing! Even half full if I’d always noisy, could be fixed a bit with some hidden absorbing noise panels. Awesome, love it.

   We made a reservation through Open Table for Thanksgiving expecting a menu with some Thanksgiving specials. We arrived at 1:00 pm. Come to find out there was a buffet only when we arrived. No communication whatsoever even when we were greeted by our server. All at $99 a plate! The turkey was an overcooked carcass that didn’t even resemble turkey. My daughter couldn’t even bite the tiny piece of dark meat she was given!!!!! No traditional Thanksgiving dishes, the seafood bar stunk of rotting fish. The desserts were all depleted. We asked for dessert refills but none came. So we settled for some small cupcakes that were exactly like those Walmart sells (actually Walmart has better ones!). Then they tacked on a 20% gratuity ($39.95) - for what. No one waited on us - it was self serve. Actually when we went up for the entree they cleared our table of everything including water! We had to wait for silverware, water and napkins! And to top it all off they had a two person band! Could not talk or hear anything!! Oh my I have never ever experienced such a horrible meal and atmosphere especially for that cost! We have cancelled our Christmas dinner as a result. Stay away! Terrible!

   We loved our first Thanksgiving brunch at The Wave. The food was amazing and the staff was so attentive. We will definitely be back next year.!!

   Some friends came to town and have never been to The Wave. What a wonderful experience. Although it is in Costa D’este, a hotel, on the ocean, it is one of the best restaurants in Vero Beach. From the moment we entered, the staff was wonderful. It has always been wonderful since they opened. If you don’t try it, you’ll be missing out on a foodie experience. For starters, we had corn chowder and the octopus with potatoes, olives, fennel, chorizo with a tasty chimichurri sauce. For the main courses, we had the costa D’Este paella. It was the best paella outside of our favorite one in Valencia. It was loaded with mussels, clams, bite size pieces of chicken and chorizo, shrimp along with two huge scallops over their perfectly cooked rice. For dessert, the vanilla gelato was beyond amazing and the flan was good. The service from Maddison was fabulous. She checked back with us several times. Our glasses of water never went below half. I wish all the wait staff was like her. The view of the ocean was fabulous. It is a great restaurant not to be missed in Vero.

    Had our anniversary dinner there. From the ambience to the service and the food all were OUTSTANDING. I recommend the Paella and the lechon. The rice pudding dessert was also delicious.
