Cobalt - Vero Beach

Delicious food, amazing view and awesome service! Highly recommend!

We had a great time at Cobalt. The food is delicious and the portion sizes are good for the high prices they charge hence the stars for value. That said, the wine markup is super ridiculous, so we likely will come back for meals with friends who drink less : (a delicious Sancerre on the menu for $125 can be bought in a store for $24.99 . Food recos Foie Gras app, Caviar app, scallop entree, and my dining companions shared that the Lamb and the mac cheese dishes were also noteworthy. Our server, Nikki was awesome friendly, super knowledgeable and attentive. My dining companions were a little put off by the larger service support, or lack thereof, in that for the type of restaurant and the price point, they expected Nikki's support staff to be a lot more visible (we had to ask for napkins and flatware after getting our first food item, when the tables are typically set before seating , and we ordered 2 plates that we stated would be split between 2 of us, and we would have expected the kitchen to plate the split. When the food runner brought the single plate, we even had to ask for extra dishes to split it ourselves. these are minor things, and we just reset our expectations that while the prices may be high, the vibe is still pretty casual. Great views on the outdoor seating area, and nice ambiance, and they are good with kiddos too (crayons and coloring sheets, and a kids menu . We will be back!

I’ll start with the good. Tuna Nacho appetizer is excellent! Now the disappointment: Open Table shows price as $30-$50. Steaks, which is what we planned to order are well over that range. A simple rib eye is $78 and comes with nothing! There are steaks priced up to $150! Crazy! The entree is literally the only thing on the plate, not even a garnish to make it look upscale. Very disappointing. Restaurant was empty, that tells you something! (except bar area with good entertainment/ music).

This was a great anniversary dinner. Highly recommend. The ambiance was relaxed

Excellent service. Jonathan was very attentive quickly responded to our needs..The octopus appetizer short ribs were very good. Great bar . The main dining room is a bit noisy and open. The chairs are low and could use recushioning. Location is excellent the vibe is decidedly upscale.
