Waldo's
3.7 / 5 (11482 reviews)

Description

Perched on Vero Beach's historic Driftwood Inn, this oceanfront spot shines for its location, lively atmosphere and cocktails—think boardwalk patio, live music and sweeping sunset views. Service is repeatedly praised as attentive and quick, and standouts like coconut shrimp, grouper and fish dip earn high marks. Food quality is inconsistent and some items feel overpriced or dry, and the exterior could use a deep clean. Best for drinks, views and casual seaside dining rather than guaranteed gourmet fare.

Josh provided excellent service, offering helpful suggestions and being attentive to all our needs. I can't emphasize enough how refreshing it is to receive such great service, especially when it’s often missing at other establishments. The food was tasty, and the ocean views were absolutely stunning. It's a fantastic spot for a quick meal. I’ll definitely be returning!

The food was visually appealing but didn't taste as great as it looked. We had hoped to sit at the vacant table by the ocean, but the guests behind us took it. I understand they have to alternate seating. Nonetheless, I felt a bit rushed by the server during our meal.

Waldo's is right on the beach in Vero Beach located at the historic Driftwood hotel. It definitely gets a 5/5 for location with ocean views. The atmosphere was great with live music. They had many drink options including some perfect beachside drinks. The food is good. For the most part it is average pub food. The chicken salad was really good and was different in that it came with pasta salad, fresh fruit, and beat chips. On this trip the beat chips could have been a little crunchier as they were kind of soggy. Service was great and food came quick but we didn't feel rushed. Overall I'd recommend a trip to Waldo's!

The food was over priced for the quality. My wrap was pretty dry and I had to ask for more dressing for the lack of in the wrap. My husband had no complaints about the wings. And my kids had the kids burger and a hot dog. The service was great and accommodated our wanting to sit on the patio section. Ambiance was nice and the ocean view was beautiful. I'm sure the prices are more so fitting for the area, than the food.
